Episode 1: The Pilot
Journalists Katie Herzog and Jesse Singal scour the internet for its craziest, silliest, most sociopathic content, part of an obsessive and ill-conceived attempt to extract kernels of meaning and humanity from a landscape of endless raging dumpster fires.
IT'S HERE. In the pilot episode of Blocked and Reported, hosts Katie Herzog and Jesse Singal explain what the podcast is, and Katie reveals a very special Pandemic Announcement. The hosts also discuss the "Why I Am Leaving The Left" subgenre, debate whether insanely irresponsible pandemic behavior has changed their views on internet shaming, and offer some suggestions of wonderful Old Internet relics that can help listeners ride out the end of the world in an entertaining manner.

Episode 1: The Pilot
substack sucks at making it easy to look back at posts. fyi you can use this api:
https://www.blockedandreported.org/api/v1/archive?sort=new&search=&offset=470&limit=50
to browse through programmatically and find only podcast posts + sort by old or whatever. if you're on this episode you probably found it this way anyway, but f u.
anyway, first.
