The ShouJoe Podcast is a podcast where host Sarah shows her favorite Shoujo anime series to her long time friend Joe. Each week, the two do a deep dive of Shoujo Anime they’re covering, about 2-3 episodes at a time, provide summaries, opinions, analysis, and generally just joke around about the episodes. Join us as Sarah shows Joe what Shoujo is all about!
