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 Prince, and Full Metal Panic. |

[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. |
