JoJo’s Bizarre Explainer

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! Welcome back to the show! We are back from our unannounced hiatus to grapple a series of difficult questions: Italy — is it a real country? (Jury remains out on this one.) Johnny asks Gyro the tough questions, such as “why are so many people trying to kill you?” An extended flashback offers the answer to the lingering question “what are those things on Gyro’s face?” (but nobody is happy about the answer). And we say goodbye to the country’s most popular cowboy, Mountain Tim, since it seems like he’s not, uh, alive anymore…?
