Softblock, the Podcast

Abbey & Michelle

A podcast about girlhood, community, and talking about things—big and small. Abbey and Michelle overthink out loud, balancing humour, nuance, and a little bit of chaos. Smart but not try-hard, fun but not fluff. No shame, no guilt, just good conversation and a space to figure it all out together.

    Ep 38. "None of your Quizness!"

    Can quantity translate into quality? Does time lend itself to knowledge? Does proximity ever mean really knowing someone? Do these philosophical questions make me look introspective in this dress?  It's not about finding the answers, it's about asking the right questions. This week, Abbey and Michelle play "The Newly Wed Game" and test how well they actually know each other. Totally low stakes - just their entire friendship and all feelings of being seen and understood are on the line.  Don't forget we're on YouTube now! You can watch the game unfold over there as well.  Xo!  Softblock, The Podcast is a new Canadian show hosted by Abbey Humphreys-Morris and Michelle Blight. Softblock is the ramification of two young girls meeting at an underfunded public school nearly two decades ago. Trauma-bonded by standardized testing, high school theatre programs, terrible ex-boyfriends, arts degrees, and s****y inflated apartments, Michelle and Abbey invite you to join their kitchen floor time, their bar rambling, and nearly twenty years of friendship. + FOLLOW THE PODCAST Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/softblockpod/  TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@softblockpod  + LINKS Linktree: https://linktr.ee/softblockpod  + CONTACT US  If you have any questions, comments, or stories you wish to submit, send us an email about softblockpod@gmail.com.

    Ep 35. "Oh man, Oh man, Omen"

    Do you ever find yourself feeling like you're on the precipice? "Precipice of what?" you may ask. We don't know. We're not you. Only you can answer that. Silly!  But we feel it, too. Time and time again there are signs and synchronicities that tell us something is about to change. This week, Abbey and Michelle share a list of their personal "good omens" - signs something good is about to happen, whatever it may be. Oh, they also share a shrimp cocktail.  Xo!  Softblock, The Podcast is a new Canadian show hosted by Abbey Humphreys-Morris and Michelle Blight.
