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
This week on the podcast, it's the start of 2012's Psycho-Pass (Eps 1-3). We also talk about unconventional ways to drive, certified humane eggs, The Pitt, Dexter, and Pantone colors. |
We continue with Lazarus on the podcast this week; talking episodes 4-6. We also talk about New Jersey musicians, non-NJ-musicians like Autechre & Eminem, The Princess Diaries, and when AI is at fault. |
[Skip to 23:03 for Lazarus talk. Also, Myles' side of his recording cuts out partway through the episode, apologies for the Discord call quality on this episode]
It's time to talk about the heavily-anticipated Watanabe show, Lazarus. Is it style over substance? Worth the hype? Find out, maybe, on this episode of the podcast. We also talk about TV shows that fall off, B.F. Skinner, the significance of dreidels, and large numb...
Timezone -1 Myles joins the podcast as we discuss 2025's Sakamoto Days, episodes 1-3. We also talk about gout, Bubbaloo, Bob from Tekken, Japanese baby-weaning techniques and numbering systems, and the rabbit punch. |
We pivot to a more blatantly-on-theme show for Pride month on this episode of the podcast: we watched three episodes ofYuri Kuma Arashi, from one of the creators of Revolutionary Girl Utena. It's confusing! We also talk about jukebox musicals, Pappyland, and David Lynch.
Complex, stylistic, sad, and not very gay: these words may describe many things, but they are also how we feel about Paradise Kiss after six episodes. On this episode of the podcast we cover episodes 4-6 of the show and decide we need to move on to something else before Pride '25 is through. We also talk about cold seaside towns, music we'll always love, school admittance tests, smizing, and the city of Chicago. |
Happy Pride, everyone. We take a rare look into the world of fashion anime this week on the pod, as we cover the first three episodes of Paradise Kiss, based on a josei manga by Ai Yazawa (of Nana fame). We also talk about stupid kid arguments, Genesis, Hook, UK slang, Terrace House, and essay manga. |
In this episode we finish our coverage of The Apothecary Diaries - at least for now - with episodes 10-12. We also talk about Karen O., what "sus" means, and skinks. |
It's more of The Apothecary Diaries this week on JJBpod, we watch S1 Eps 7-9 this time around. Will we go the distance or jump ship? IDK! We also talk about grandparents playing mahjong, if kids should drink coffee, the value of straws, and the development of forensics. |
More chemicals, please! We talk about three more episodes of The Apothecary Diaries this week, 'cause we're enjoying it. We also talk about ELI5, congee, the Ma clan, if MaoMao is too smart, The Breakfast Club, which teams to cheer for, and what they do with medical waste. |
We're only a little late to the party this week: we watched the first three episodes of The Apothecary Diaries, from Fall 2023. We also talk about Jonestown, fusion cuisine, poisoned makeup, poison vs venom, and All in the Family. |
We take a look at the end of 86 Part 1 and the beginning of 86 Part 2 on the podcast this week. Both parts came out in 2021 and are basically the same season, but, you know how weird TV anime is. It feels like not much happens in this three eps, but they hint at more to come? Will we actually finish this show? Join our Discord server below and VOTE. We also talk about saucy sandwiches, Dido songs, The Shawshank Redemption, Blue Pri...
It's three more episodes of 86 this week on the podcast. What happened? Did we like it? Is the anime too dark? Will we continue the show or 86 86? Find out here. We also talk about Scarface, Chik-Fil-A, country music, Andor, Crunchyroll's AI subtitle project, and George Washington's will. |
[Be advised: dark topics are covered on this week's episode]
On JJBPod, we have three goals: to entertain, inform, and amuse. They are but impossible ideals. This week we continue with the 2021 anime 86, covering episodes 4-6, where things get DARK. We also talk about what makes an anime "old," the saddest songs, Psycho Frame, when to use callsigns, The Cosby Show, and Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics. |
Keeping it sci-fi this week on the pod, we take a look at 2021's political mecha-military thriller, 86. We also talk about all the Steel Ball Run anime news, lengthy advertising campaigns, Odd Taxi, back-to-work rules, and something else, most definitely. |
We return to the distant year of 2030 to look at the start of the Laughing Man plot of Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex Season 1. (This takes place over episodes 4-6). Will we keep going with this show? Maybe! But probably not next week; listen to the end to hear what show we'll do next. |
[Skip to 15:57 for actual movie talk]
We ended up pranking ourselves on this week's pod; we saw a bad movie and talked about it in-person: Ghost in the Shell (the one from 2017). We also talk about "whitewashing" controversies, how glitches work, Marriage Story, better attempts at sci-fi remakes, and thinking up cool lines. |
We conclude our coverage of Orb: On the Movements of the Earth by covering episodes 13, 14, and 15 this week. That's not the end of the season, but we gave the show a fair shake and feel that it's a good time to move on. We hope you can respect our privacy in this trying time. We also talk about waffle parties, the ethics of torture, kumite, and The Jim Carroll Band. |
Despite the pain, despite its length, we continue on with three more episodes of ORB: On the Orb of Orbs. It's episodes 10-12 this week. We also talk about first dates, how rainbows work, the Statue of Liberty, hoarding Excel formuals, and if everyone should be literate. |
No time to write a description! It's Orb eps 7-9. We also talk about crypto-currencies, My Chemical Romance, Matt Damon movies, vibes-based astronomer Philolaus, the Fundamentalist Latter-Day Saints, and rainbows. |
