  • S02E17: Kars Gets Karsed
    This is it. The end of Battle Tendency. Basically the end of JoJo as we know it. And it's an exciting time. We encounter the world's most pointless funeral at the world's most dubious cemetery. Our friends become politicians, get cleared of treason, engage in light xenophobia, have their memory wiped, die of gay heart attacks, and just plain old stop thinking. Not in that order. And not the same person. Anyway we can't believe you've stuck with us through the whole journey. Thank you, intrepid listener!

  • S02E16: Dubstep Squirrel
    Let us all gather and live vicariously through Kars as he fulfills the universal human dream of turning your hand into a squirrel. Joseph stays on #brand by first trying to outrun his problems and then trying to crash into them with an airplane. Kars demonstrates the ongoing correlation between evilness and glamorousness in the JoJo universe. Eliz writes another chapter of her StroheimBot fan fiction for us. And when all else fails,throw your enemies into a g-d volcano!

  • S02E15: Lisa Lisa Gets John Wicked
    Ah, yet another week where we entertain our listeners with sleight-of-hand, the noblest form of radio entertainment. We learn that sometimes a zombie just wants a mid-level management job with good benefits. And when it comes to Jorge Joestar, yes, with a J... we're sorry. There's time to save yourselves. You don't have to listen to this episode. And if you can explain the difference between vampires and zombies, please write to us at JJBX, The Pirate Club, Ogre Street, London, England.

  • S02E14: Kars Gone Wild
    This week we absolutely ruin the idea of Caesar Zepelli's erotic aroma for no reason (well...I mean...it's canon). Wamuu joins the esteemed ranks of Powerful Heads of JoJo. Kars finally ~unleashes~ his hair and all the zombie henchmen swoon. Erina Pendleton's later years are one long stretch of loneliness and small batch beer testing. And Lisa Lisa spends this entire episode just hanging out. On account of how she's literally hanging...upside dow--I'll show myself out.

  • S02E13: Man vs. Pillar Man
    We at JJBX apologize for ruining your ability to read and say "lmao" forever. The real lesson from this chariot race is to never play any sort of game with Araki. For the second time in as many seasons, someone hides inside of a horse as a strategic move (and it works?). And the gang realizes what Santana's ultimate fate actually was, leading to a head canon cottage industry that's absolutely absurd, even for us. Who's thirsty?

  • S02E12: Lisa Lisa, Vampire Horse Whisperer
    Good morning, it's time for Problematic Gay Discourse! Delicious! Thank goodness the Pillar Men never get bored and just start putting the stone mask on other random animals, since it makes horses terrifying (what would it do to moose?). Joseph Joestar cannot stay off his bullshit, and his bullshit is always sleight of hand string tricks. If nothing else convinces you to not be a peeping tom, let the threat of incest do it. And we unlock a new layer of why the opening credits are so great! Spoilers: it's due to grieving!

  • S02E11: Mario Zeppeli's Last Breakfast
    We finally answer the question, "What does a Zeppeli patriarch eat before abandoning his family?" A pattern begins to form of what Araki thinks "bad teens" look like and, spoiler, they're hot and they dress well (unlike...everyone else in JoJo). Caesar was obviously a Pirate Club intern for Ruth Bader Ginsberg Prime in his youth. HOBviously. Caesar vs. Wamuu: Dad Vengance Showdown...which ends very, very badly for Caesar. And therefore the rest of the gang. And therefore us. Because death is sad, especially when it's Joseph's One True Love.

  • S02E10: The Ultimate Vegan
    This is yet another episode where we have to talk about Nazis, forcing us to vote into law further canon corrections so please update your head canons accordingly. Going to to dinner with Kars is probably insufferable. Joseph and Caesar are in love to a degree that everyone else around them is getting a little tired of it, like either stop making out or make out already, jeez. And we finally see the consequences of punching as the primary tool of communication in a relationship, gentlemen.

  • S02E09: Let's Go Send Some Italian Mail
    Esidisi lives on as a brain backpack and nobody here is sad about it. Lisa Lisa takes a bath and it almost murders her. We here at JJBX continue to teach the controversy about Danny's true killer. In a series devoted to homoerotic battles, this episode's battle is...Quite Something, ahem. And Joseph would do very poorly in the modern gig economy, based on how he handles the one very basic errand to the post office Lisa Lisa gives him.

    Who designed the work spaces of the Pillar Men? How many abdominal muscles do you even NEED, Joeseph Joestar, Jesus E O Christ, give some of those away to the abdominal-less. Esidisi has had some extremely good therapy and processes trauma like a champ. It turns out there are levels of homoeroticism on this show that Eliz had not noticed somehow, so Courtney and Darius get to point those out to her. And if you can explain why yeast-based aliens have bones, please write to us at JJBX, The Pirate Club, Ogre Street, London, England.
