Knowing Neal's anxiety (and I can relate to this in part), I bet Jerry said exactly that, "He'll be back soon!" (because he's great, because he's taking a break, etc.), and that Neal FULLY misinterpreted it because he happens to be in his head (as I can do often!).
100% it goes along with Neal's constant drumbeat of being underestimated, underappreciated, etc. I am glad Jerry just confronted him about it. I think he needs a new song, "Nobody's Hating On You" - ♫ Nobody's hating on you, nobody's hating on you, you're letting your childhood shape your view. Nobody's hating on you, nobody's hating on you, you're living an awesome life, my dude. ♫
I feel like someone could probably write a fascinating paper about a universe where Aliens is (or seems like it is) the sequel to Stand by Me: but you only realized it because you happened to see them as a double feature!! 😂🙂
I don't know how Neal has done it... but I loved the brooding malcontent Neal...which is why I started watching these... and now I'm smiling and laughing... I think Neal has sneaked in some therapy through these blocks to make the neuroses less. IDK... but I am thankful for this channel and these videos.
It's funny. The tiniest thing can cause me to chuckle-- and it brightens my day significantly. Just now it was Neal saying "...that's the name of the building, not the woman." 😂Thanks❤
Sliders was such a good show, when I saw Jerry on big brother playing Julie Chen I had a massive flash back to sitting with my dad enjoying mind bending sci fi
Mine and my wife's favorite character on stand by me was by far Jerry's character. Not only did he bring the plot he also had more genuine emotional scenes than any of the other characters. That being said we fell back in love with him on sliders. I'm currently watching the podcast now I don't know if there's been any mention made later in the pod, but that show was phenomenal! If the opinion of a couple of Syfy nerds matters lol🤓🤓
One of my blocks is thinking Ill never meet another person that I love to hang out with. He's gone now and I dont have anyone that matches my energy. It's so lonely.
i'm kind of surpised how he feels so defined by "stand by me", obviously a huge classic movie.. but I never knew this guy was in it. for me hes just a guy i sometimes see in stuff? and I usually like it. might be different cause im from EU tho
I saw the movie when it came out... never recognized any of the kids in later movies. I never heard of Jerry until Sliders (but probably saw him in stuff).
We also believe Jerry’s recollection is correct. Believed it from the start. I also believe Neal was a wildly argumentative college student. Some things are just hard to shake. 😂😂
When i got into watching films and went back to watch some essential classics, like Stand By Me, I saw you and didnt go "its the fat kid from stand by me". I went "OMG is that Quinn, the guy from Sliders!"
Every time you say “This is the Blocks podcast”. I think you’re saying, “This is the Blacks podcast”… and I’m aware I’m watching the Blocks podcast lol
This was really good to watch, I enjoyed it a lot but the first 10 minutes of this was very uncomfortable to watch.... they should have had that conversation before they agreed to do this podcast together. Let it go, guys.
Do men watch this? I can see a burly guy unwinding from a transmission overhaul with this: Grabs a cheap beer, listens to manicured LA men pat themselves on the back with therapy-talk, buys Pantera tickets, etc.

Listen Jerry, don't let the truth get in the way of Neal's villain origin story😂 Just feel honored that you are included!
“Mocks the format,” is your editors best work of the year imho.

"Chasing that Rob Reiner Dragon" is diabolical haha 😂
I loved watching sliders back in the day
Great episode & great conversation. Keep doing your thing Neal...
In the off-chance you're reading this, Jerry:
You were not a downgrade from Stamos, whatsoever.
My parents rented Stand By Me and Aliens and we watched them as a double feature. Still two of the greatest movies ever made.
I feel like someone could probably write a fascinating paper about a universe where Aliens is (or seems like it is) the sequel to Stand by Me: but you only realized it because you happened to see them as a double feature!! 😂🙂
Jerry's best-ever role was his absolutely AMAZING mimicry of Tom Cruise in his black turtleneck. *chef's kiss*

He has talked about this at length, including in his last special.
Jerry seems like such a great guy
A block session with Wendy Williams would definitely have to be a 2 parter, but i would love to see it. Thanks for the awesome podcast Neal!!
This is one of the best guests yet, even if he did MOCK THE FORMAT.
It's okay Jerry, Canadians of a certain age also remember you from My Secret Identity
Loved that show. It was one of the few shows I let my son watch!
It's funny. The tiniest thing can cause me to chuckle-- and it brightens my day significantly. Just now it was Neal saying "...that's the name of the building, not the woman." 😂Thanks❤
Neal, that was literally the first time someone's plea for me to subscribe, actually worked. Congratulations.
Sliders was such a good show, when I saw Jerry on big brother playing Julie Chen I had a massive flash back to sitting with my dad enjoying mind bending sci fi
Chasing the Rob Reiner Dragon 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
@violetedge83 dude, I spit out my coffee, like actually, reading that haha
Neal's out here making grudges like Jordan 😆
Jay Mohr on Blocks please!!!!!
I don't watch these here, but I listen to ALL your Podcasts, never miss any! They help me, thank you.
I just bought the Sliders box set today, and this episode popped up in my recommendations. Loved the interview!

Loved Jerry in Sliders! Excellent series. When it comes to child star stories, Macaulay Culkin definitely needs to be a guest on Blocks.
Nobody's mad at you
Nobody's mad at you
Please tell me this can spark a Big Cat interview on Blocks, that would be so silly
I loved this episode, I was always a big fan of Jerry ever since a child watching Clicker!
''She was married to John Stamos, I gotta treat her right''
Love ❤ this thank you 🙏
Great Interview
One of my blocks is thinking Ill never meet another person that I love to hang out with. He's gone now and I dont have anyone that matches my energy. It's so lonely.
They’re out there, you just gotta leave your iron in the fire for a bit.
Watching this podcast and then Windows 11 puts a kangaroo desktop pic up in the background.
He stole the money... And he's not giving it back.
This is such a good show.
I remember seeing him show up in Scream 2!
i'm kind of surpised how he feels so defined by "stand by me", obviously a huge classic movie.. but I never knew this guy was in it. for me hes just a guy i sometimes see in stuff? and I usually like it. might be different cause im from EU tho
I saw the movie when it came out... never recognized any of the kids in later movies. I never heard of Jerry until Sliders (but probably saw him in stuff).
This opened like an episode of WTF. Strong Maron vibes.
Congrats to Commander Ransom on the wrap of Lower Decks. It was a hell of a ride.
What about Sliders?! not even a mention?
Jerry is my bro hero
Jerry I loved you in the 2006 horror picture, Room 6!
JERRY O'CONNELL IS GREAT, LOVED YOUR ROLES!!!
always funny when he was on wendy and filled in for wendy.
"Broadway actors are like cats!" 😂
Both will absolutely eat your eyes if you "act out of pocket...". 🙀😿😹
We also believe Jerry’s recollection is correct. Believed it from the start. I also believe Neal was a wildly argumentative college student. Some things are just hard to shake. 😂😂
Trynna go to Oakland?
When i got into watching films and went back to watch some essential classics, like Stand By Me, I saw you and didnt go "its the fat kid from stand by me". I went "OMG is that Quinn, the guy from Sliders!"
who is acting up on the talk? the co hosts all seem squeaky clean
Wow... what a thing to hold on to.
Oh good lord figure it out guys
Every time you say “This is the Blocks podcast”. I think you’re saying, “This is the Blacks podcast”… and I’m aware I’m watching the Blocks podcast lol
Tomcats doesn't get enough love.
Such a gloriously dumb movie.
I’m shocked Neil didn’t write Joes Apartment 🪳
For some reason I really want to watch Stand by Me
27:29 I love how Neil makes this about his guest. What a great interviewer!
Don't forget to call Jerry afterward, no one likes to do it alone.
06:08
This is like the lady doing math meme
This is Cush

51:42 life is tennis and you’re playing solo against doubles.
Neal, has anyone noted that you hold canned drinks in a very unusual way?
One of his guest mentioned it I wanna say tig nataro? How he holds serious eye contact as he sips his drinks lol
@@gideonamare160no it was how he sticks his tongue briefly out when drinks from bottles
And he tends to just use his fingertips. Unusual.

Leo, Lowe, Keanu, Depp?
Trip!!!! Trip McNeally!!!
This was really good to watch, I enjoyed it a lot but the first 10 minutes of this was very uncomfortable to watch.... they should have had that conversation before they agreed to do this podcast together.
Let it go, guys.
Cherry flavored PEZ. No question about it.
Jerry O’Connell might be the most neurotic guest yet. My bad, definitely 🙃
I wonder who the big celebrity was that mocked Jerry. I bet it was Ellen DeGeneres
mission to mars.
Trip McNeely!!!
Trip McNeely!
MANDELLA EFFECT ;)-
Do men watch this?
I can see a burly guy unwinding from a transmission overhaul with this: Grabs a cheap beer, listens to manicured LA men pat themselves on the back with therapy-talk, buys Pantera tickets, etc.
I love the content, but God I hope Neal becomes aware of how often he derails his guests when they’re trying to speak.
First of all Fat kid from Stand by Me? He is only fat by 80s standards, and Sliders! Sliders was a solid Sci-Fi show.
You’ll never guess my secret identity 🩷
