JoJo's Bizarre Adventure! Either you love it, or you've never seen it. But what exactly is JoJo? Why is everyone talking about it? Why is it so great? Whether this is your first foray into Hirohiko Araki's decades-spanning masterpiece, or you're a seasoned JoJo Opinion Haver looking for more of your kind, JoJo's Bizarre Explainer is here for you! Hosted by Elizabeth Simins, Courtney Stanton, and Darius Kazemi, this podcast will tease out the running motifs, fascinating weirdnesses, occasional dog deaths, and ineffable charm of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure—anime-episode by anime-episode, with stops along the way for the manga, the videogames, and whatever else we can get our hands on. Join us as we attempt to do the impossible: Explain JoJo!
Did you miss men inside other men? The ol' Pillar Man Shmoo? Well is this the story arc for you. Also discussed: ways to lose money with lesbians, 19th century white American farmers' intense love of Japanese fungus, and what is shonen time and why does it exist in the Milwaukee suburbs. Plus, someone better call Karl Marx because we need to define exchange value and use value before we're all turned into trees.

S06E20: Johnny Joestar's Toilet Claw
Take a drink every time one of us says the word "hole" in this podcast episode (D-don't do that. You'll die.) Today we see that with great power comes weird nail-based fighting techniques. Johnny's Stand is possibly turning into a Loony Toons character. We learn that Gyro and Johnny are the hardiest twinks. Courtney cannot understand how the rules of Sugar Mountain work to save his life. And Eliz definitely knows what sounding is.

S06E19: These Boots Were Made For Bad Parenting
After another long hiatus... we're back! We've got an episode jam packed with facts about the Triple Crown, Gyro Zeppeli's rabbinical energy, and the importance of the golden ratio. Gyro teaches important life lessons to Johnny while they are both hiding in mud with their tongues on fire. We compare the bad parenting of Phantom Blood with the bad parenting of Steel Ball Run. We learn that spin is indeed stored in the balls. And Araki proves once and for all that the Mona Lisa is good for more than just ogling her hands.
