JoJo's Bizarre Podcast
Three friends (and occasional guests) discuss the various adaptations of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, as well as lots of other animes, and public transit in New York and New Jersey. We sometimes get explicit. https://www.patreon.com/jjbpod
- 1 hour 1 minuteEp. 471 - Garbage Paradise (Gachiakuta Eps. 1-3)
It's trash time, folks. We watched last year's summer hit, Gachiakuta, episodes 1-3. Do we still even like shounen? Find out! We also talk about Testament, when to toss a plunger, and sitting in the way-back of your dad's car. |
22 April 2026, 9:01 pm - 46 minutes 55 secondsEp. 470 - What Are Angels (Angel's Egg)
It gets abstract this week on the podcast, as we watch Mamoru Oshii's semi-forgotten anime film, Angel's Egg, from 1985. We also talk about Anatomy of a Fall, loads of 80s bands, Peeps, and the Silverball pinball museum of Asbury Park NJ. |
15 April 2026, 4:04 am - 1 hour 3 minutesEp. 469 - Just Steal the Ring (Lupin III The Castle of Cagliostro)
Thanks to a Patreon supporter, it's finally time to dip our toes into the world of Lupin III - and to check out the first Miyazaki movie: The Castle of Cagliostro. We also talk about corporate transparency (vis-a-vis the baffling Steel Ball Run release schedule) and the flexatone. |
8 April 2026, 8:54 pm - 1 hour 3 minutesEp. 468 - A New Direction (JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Steel Ball Run Ep. 2??)
[Go to 17:14 for SBR Episode 2-ish talk]
In a strange twist of fate, we got episode 2 of Steel Ball Run a lot earlier than we thought. It's pretty out there, but after the ending of part 6, all bets must be off! We may just have to consider this part of Araki's strange genius. Besides covering episodes 2.1, 2.2, and 2.3 of SBR, we also talk about Alyssa Liu's first pitch, game tutorials, what goes on in Netflix boardrooms, and what animes will tide us over while we wait for SBR to bring us back to the old West. |
1 April 2026, 4:01 am - 1 hour 31 minutesEp. 467 - Balls to the Wall (JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Steel Ball Run Ep. 1)
WE'RE BACK! Well, we never left you - we've covered dozens and dozens of animes between the end of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Part 6 "Stone Ocean" and the long-overdue, glorious debut of Part 7, "Steel Ball Run." But we're finally about JoJo's again...for one week. We talk about the upcoming JoJo Caravan event at Kinokuniyas, how strange it is to know nothing about the next SBR episode, the doc Free Solo, robotic camel racing, and how to spell "accumulate." (Wow it's one M?) |
26 March 2026, 12:12 am - 1 hour 1 minuteEp. 466 - Tony Xerox (To Be Hero X Eps. 7-9)
On our last non-JoJo episode for a while (?) we talk about three more episodes of China's To Be Hero X, episodes 7-9. We're wrapping up the E-Soul arc and starting the Lucky Cyan one. We also talk about St. Patrick's Day, the Oscar winners, Frankie Valli, skating in church, and what a horse is. |
18 March 2026, 9:31 pm - 1 hour 21 minutesEp. 465 - Pregnant with Shame (To Be Hero X 4-6)
We return to China this week, to check out 3 more episodes of dònghuà To Be Hero X. We also talk about similar works like The Ice Storm and Grizzly Man. |
11 March 2026, 9:24 pm - 1 hour 11 minutesEp. 464 - Marclonos (Ghost in the Shell Standalone Complex Eps 7-9)
Returning to a recent fav, the gang checks out more of Ghost in the Shell Standalone Complex (episodes 7-9). Unfortunately the "complex" episode here doesn't offer much in terms of the bigger plot! We also talk about "U Talkin U2 to Me", lying about your height on dating apps, FARC, cryogenic tanks leaking, the surveillance state, and 5 Second Films. |
4 March 2026, 11:35 pm - 1 hour 14 minutesEp. 463 - Therapy (Macross Plus, Movie Edition)
In a rare Jackie-free episode, Myles and Marc talk about the dazzling 90s anime treasure, Macross Plus. Is it as great as we all (ha) remember? Find out by listening. We also talk about terrible mash-up music, touching the thermostat, what a rogue MALE AI pop star would do, and freckles. |
25 February 2026, 9:21 pm - 1 hour 40 secondsEp. 462 - Better Read (Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence)
Skip to 14:51 for actual GITS 2 INNOCENCE talk
The film streak continues as this week we check out Innocence, the ("underrated?"/"weird"/"heady") sequel to one of the anime GOATs, Ghost in the Shell. Are we smart enough for this film? (No) We also talk about Abel Ferrara, Silent Hill, feminist writer Donna Haraway, and Mr. Meeseeks. |
18 February 2026, 10:39 pm - 1 hour 29 minutesEp. 461 - Cosco (The Girl Who Leapt Through Time)
It's time to refill your popcorn buckets, 'cause we're going to the movies for the second week in a row - this time, we're talking about The Girl Who Leapt Through Time. We also talk about the Superbowl, The Prestige, Irreversible, kors k, and if we'll all ever stop being cringe. |
