JoJo's Bizarre Explainer episodes
- S03E10: Bathroom AnxietyLet's go to the bathroom! This week we learn even more about Polnareff's waking bathroom anxiety nightmare life aka pig sty toilets. Lovable human turd Hol Horse shows up along with his partner in crime (and life?), J Geil. Polnareff shows us all what happens when you try to break up with your affable gang of teen boy world travelers (and Avdol pays the price). And we spend entirely too much time this week talking about Vento Aureo, maybe if we keep it up the anime will be green-lit, that's how The Secret works, right?--JoJo’s Bizarre ExplainerJoJo'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!

27 min - S03E09: Yellow Temperance and Blue PopsiclesIt is time to once again appreciate that noblest of creatures: the stag beetle. As previously mentioned on this podcast, one of Kakyoin’s defining traits is an abiding love of cherries (other noted loves: the color green, being dramatic, Jotaro Kujo). It’s the return of the JJBX Dog Death Minute, now with introductory jingle...RIP Pocky, we hardly knew ye. And we finally answer the lingering question of where Kakyoin’s family thinks he has been this entire time (spoilers: it’s sad, because it’s JoJo).--JoJo’s Bizarre ExplainerJoJo's Bizarre Adventure!

31 min - S03E08: Polnareff's Dirty BagThis week we meet possibly the most upsetting doll in JoJo history. Somehow we have gone 34 episodes before Courtney mentioned a member of NSync, so this is a landmark moment in JJBX history. Joseph Joestar is physically incapable of not changing clothes every other episode. Even more electronics die in the quest to provide info that moves the plot forward. And please send your "Kakyoin: Traitor or Nay-tor" theories to us at JJBX, The Pirate Club, Ogre Street, London, England.--JoJo’s Bizarre ExplainerJoJo's Bizarre Adventure!

24 min - S03E07: He Only Reads It For the ArticlesWe learn probably too much about the sexual lives of apes (and monkeys). Dio continues to monologue and we continue to love it. Polnareff is, in fact, a true representative of the behavior and personality of all French people. We add yet another item to our wishlist of Official Merchandise that Doesn't Exist. And it only took seven episodes, but hooray, we've officially broken the rules of how Stands work...hope you weren't too attached to those.--JoJo’s Bizarre ExplainerJoJo's Bizarre Adventure!

25 min - S03E06: Joseph Joestar: Maritime GayJoseph Joestar wears another very important outfit. Jotaro and Kakyoin do some very important sunbathing. Avdol and Polnareff...are around? I guess? We meet Ann, a potentially cool character who is forced into the tedious bullshit Child Role in a JoJo Arc, so she's sadly stuck doing mostly uninteresting things. And Kakyoin's hairstyle: something that great didn't just happen, it took effort, it was workshopped, it *evolved*.--JoJo’s Bizarre ExplainerJoJo's Bizarre Adventure!

26 min - S03E05: Avdol and Polnareff Go to White CastleThis week two wizards fight in a capitalist theme park and it's not nearly as interesting as it sounds. A flesh bud is gently, tenderly revealed. We learn that the best way to write a fight scene is to tell rather than to show. Araki finally leans on a tired-ass trope to provide character motivation for Polnareff and we are not! Having! It! We all discover how much Darius knows about 90s commercials featuring rapping animals (too much). And we put to rest the age-old debate about what the hell Jotaro's hat really is.--JoJo’s Bizarre ExplainerJoJo's Bizarre Adventure! Either you love it, or you've never seen it.

31 min - S03E04: This Podcast Is a Work of FictionThe legal team of the Stardust Crusaders anime has taken great pains to make sure we, the viewers, never get confused and think that the show we are watching is a documentary about music performers and bands. We make a bunch of video game jokes but don't get excited, because it's one of probably two (2) times it will ever happen on this podcast. Kakyoin gets to use his very subtle, not at all dramatic, weird, and kinda horny stand to fight and kill this week's Random Theme Villain. And we definitely don't mention Iggy, a character who won't show up for at least 20 more episodes, it's fine, it's fine.--JoJo’s Bizarre ExplainerJoJo's Bizarre Adventure!

28 min - S03E03: Live Like You're Being Hermit PurpledWe learn about that time Dio visited Avdol in his boudoir and tried to hook up wi--er, recruit him. Jotaro gently extracts Dio's fleshbud from Kakyoin's body...is there a non-homoerotic reading of this? (No.) Holly gets fridged and nobody here at JJBX Industries is very upset about it. Thanks to Star Platinum being a cop, Joseph's Traveling Band of Wayward Teens finally knows to hit the road to Cairo. And dance like there's no one watching, love like you'll never be hurt, sing like there's nobody listening, and live like Hermit Purple is always watching and taking semi-nude Polaroids of you.--JoJo’s Bizarre ExplainerJoJo's Bizarre Adventure!

26 min - S03E02: The Meet CuteStardust Crusaders continues to throw way too much information at us! A cubist painting of Jotaro Kujo holds secrets untold. Once again two boys fu--err, fight using a woman's body as a proxy. We meet an extremely gross stand. We get our first ever ora ora ora. A hooligan loses an eye. Joseph gets an outfit change and we proceed to extrapolate way too much information from it. And we get to experience Hirohiko Araki's not-so-subtle commentary on American parenting style.--JoJo’s Bizarre ExplainerJoJo's Bizarre Adventure! Either you love it, or you've never seen it.

33 min - S03E01: We Need to Talk About JotaroWe finally get to talk about Dio’s successful head transplant, the most important thing to retroactively happen in all of JoJo! How many random items from Sharper Image can Star Platinum steal? Why is Holly simultaneously the worst daughter AND mother? Why is Joseph so incredibly available to drop his entire life and fly to Japan? Why doesn‘t Jotaro own any socks? ...We answer none of these questions. But we have 47 more episodes of Stardust Crusaders to get through, so we‘ll probably get to them eventually.--JoJo’s Bizarre ExplainerJoJo's Bizarre Adventure!
