    Week 79 [Season 6, Episode 1 - Start of Part 7: Steel Ball Run]

    The two old bastards are at it again! We're 3 years older, and no years wiser, since the last time JoJo's Bizarre Adventure was on the air. Like a couple of unfrozen cavemen, we're thrust once again into Modern Pop Culture (based on a manga that started in the 1980s), as we pretend to understand that which frightens and confuses us.

    CORRECTIONS: When George was rambling about "Sagittarius," he meant Secretariat. When I mentioned "Winning Eleven," I meant Winning Post. Since recording, some more facts about Steven Steel have come to light, but those will have to wait for a future episode... Which might be several months from now.

    Week 78 [Season 5, Episodes 36-38 - End of Part 6: Stone Ocean]

    It's the final showdown! And then it's the final showdown again! And then it's, uh, the end? Pucci really made a mess of things here. Along the way, we lament the mistreatment of Foo Fighters and I have to instruct George about proper footwear etiquette in Japan. We also do a final ranking of the Parts and discuss our favorite/least favorite characters of Stone Ocean.

    But, hey, this is it. A sincere thanks to anyone who's been listening, whether you were here from the beginning or joined for Stone Ocean. I hope we'll be able to come back for Steel Ball Run, whenever that will be, but for now, this is goodbye.

    Week 76 [Diamond is Unbreakable: Chapter 1]

    This week, we watched the live-action adaptation of the first few episodes of Part 4! It's not good, and there's no reason for you to watch it! So in addition, we talk about games we've been playing recently. In my case, Atomic Heart (eh), and in George's case, JoJo All-Star Battle R (blech). Somewhere in-between, I get confused about the races of fictional characters. You know... Standard stuff. Back to Stone Ocean next week!

    Week 74 [Season 5, Episodes 29-32]

    This week, after George is done airing his grievances against his local GameStop, we continue the battle against Underworld, debate the merits of excessive profanity, and say goodbye to a member of the Stone Ocean crew...

    Week 72 [Season 5, Episodes 21-24]

    We're back with the most nonsensical stand yet! Don't you hate when you get the Memento Disease and it makes your eyes not work? Well, that happens to Jolyne, after narrowly escaping an encounter with Pucci. Some other members of the crew aren't so lucky...

    By the way, the knives-fighting thing I mention, that George tried to gaslight me into thinking I had imagined, was a fight from Yu Yu Hakusho. A series that he has also seen. The other thing was just me thinking about strap matches in wrestling, I guess, and combining them. But I didn't make it up! I'm not crazy! I'M NOT CRAZY!!!

    Week 58 [Season 4, Episode 32 / Hunter X Hunter, Episode 73]

    Please do not send me emails, I know the "saved by the bell" thing I mentioned is not real. I'm just attempting to gaslight George yet again.

    Anyway, SKET Dance fucking sucks so I just re-rolled and we got Hunter X Hunter again. Good decision! Meanwhile, we talk about Snatcher and Star Wars and whatever the hell else. I don't know what's going on any more. We're just waiting for JoJo to end at this point. Pity us.

    Last week sucked, but this week we're both feeling better, and trust me... This one goes to some weird places. Possibly our most legally-actionable episode yet! Hooray!

    Week 54 [Rohan OVA ep 2 / Reborn!, Episode 195]

    This week, after discussing the wild wild world of Funko Pops: We have an OVA that I thought was pretty good, but George disagreed, and then we had a Roulette where we were on the same page.

    Then, uh... Some other stuff happened.

    This is the Goofy Funko Pop that was mentioned: https://i.imgur.com/RnpCfGF.jpg
