Wed, 18 Mar 2026 17:35:00 GMT

George continues to come up with horrifying hypotheticals as we discuss killer cars and ghost skulls.

[Music used: Intro -- Legs by ZZ Top | Outro -- Civilization (Live from Access All Arenas) by Justice. Yeah, I know the stand Justice wasn't named after them but I'll be goddamned if I'm gonna end this podcast with a fucking Enya song.]

Week 16 [Season 2, Episodes 27-29]

Thu, 26 Jul 2018 04:01:00 GMT

Due to George being out of town soon, and not giving me any notice (he claims he did but I DO NOT BELIEVE IT) it's everyone's favorite: a sleep-deprived recording! Look, I'm sorry about how this all turned out, but there will be a ~special~ episode coming in the feed soon to make up for it. On the subject of JoJo: We finally meet supercreeps Oingo and Boingo, as well as scary monster Anubis. I wonder about animation errors with regards to swords, and George can't figure out what movie to pair with a delicious footlong sub. Eat fresh.

Thu, 02 Aug 2018 16:01:10 GMT

NOTE: We call an audible due to the weird way these episodes are split up, and also discuss the first half of Episode 42, which is the actual end of the D'Arby stuff. No idea why that wasn't just called D'Arby part three, but whatever.

Oh, and we talk about RoboCop 3. George also gets to read some Tsuda notes, and finds out he doesn't want to be inside Tsuda's head.

[Music used: Intro -- West End Girls by Pet Shop Boys | Outro -- Big Blue from F-Zero OST]

Week 28 [Season 3, Episodes 16-19]

Thu, 25 Oct 2018 04:01:00 GMT

[Music used: Intro -- Round and Round by Ratt | Outro -- Heart of Gold by Neil Young (from the album Harvest)] [also contains clips from "Fesh Pince of Blair"]

Week 29 [Season 3, Episodes 20-22]

Wed, 18 Mar 2026 17:39:00 GMT

This week, where we finally get into the main plot of this season, 20 episodes in, an early morning recording results in some weirdness. I eventually woke up, but until then, enjoy George's tales of the Leprechaun film series, as well as his pitch for the soft-reboot, The Leprechaun. This episode also contains news about the future of this podcast, since we're coming up on Part 5 in a few weeks.

Week 31 [Season 3, Episodes 26-29]

Thu, 15 Nov 2018 05:06:02 GMT

This week's episode is full of things that are ill-advised at best and most likely deeply offensive. So, you know, par for the course. Also, speaking of offensive: Janken Boy. [Music Used: Intro -- September by Earth, Wind, and Fire | Outro -- Highway Star by Deep Purple]

Week 32 [Season 3, Episodes 30-32]

Fri, 30 Nov 2018 17:25:51 GMT

We're back from a Thanksgiving break, with this episode coming into your ear-holes with BLAZING speed, considering I am uploading this abouuut 20 minutes after we finished recording. This one is chock-full of nonsense, by the way. [Music used: Intro -- Rock This Town by The Stray Cats | Outro -- Superfly by Curtis Mayfield]

Week 33 [Season 3, Episodes 33-36]

Week 34 [Season 3, Episodes 37-39 / Part 4 Wrap-Up]

Thu, 13 Dec 2018 17:48:34 GMT

It's here, the end of Part Four: Diamond Is Unbreakable! So, of course, we discuss Pokemon: Let's Go Pikachu and wonder how Norm Scott, creator of Hsu and Chan, is doing. (He's alright, it turns out -- he's updating his Patreon regularly) George also talks about some movies he might be completely imagining, even though his recording equipment crapped out and things are a bit spotty this episode as a result. Sorry about that! We'll be back next week with the first four episodes of Part 5. I can't waaaaiiiiit! [Music used: Intro -- Another One Bites the Dust by Queen | Outro -- I Want You by Savage Garden]

Thu, 20 Dec 2018 04:01:00 GMT

Here we are! Part 5, this is it... We won't have to do this too much longer... Right? This week involves banana guns, the JoJo Wiki suddenly becoming TOO detailed, and a discussion on the Peter Bogdanovich film The Last Picture Show. Skip to like 7 minutes in if you don't care about that... But if you don't, why are you still listening to this? [Music used: Intro -- Gold by Prince | Outro -- Paranoid by Black Sabbath]

Week 36 [Season 4, Episodes 5-8]

Fri, 04 Jan 2019 01:15:49 GMT

I was a bit tired for this one, but hey, we got through it. In these episodes, our special boy Guido Mista gets to show us what he can do, and we learn all cops are indeed bastards. [Music used: Intro -- Hazard Profile Part One by Soft Machine | Outro -- Anarchy in the UK by the Sex Pistols]

The Anime Roulette bears its first fruit this week, as, after recapping Guido shooting himself a whole bunch, we get to see how the boys of Shohoku are going to handle the "blue wave" of Ryonan. (Anime Roulette selection for next week: Hunter x Hunter, Episode 100)

[Music used: Intro -- Sugar Magnolia by the Grateful Dead | Outro -- Good Vibrations by the Beach Boys] [Anime Roulette theme: Roulette! by Electric Six]

Week 40 [Season 4, Episode 16 / Hunter x Hunter Episode 100]

Wed, 18 Mar 2026 17:43:00 GMT

Pesci becomes a stone-cold killa before our very eyes in "Grateful Dead, Part 2", but I'm gonna be honest with y'all -- I was kinda bored talking about this episode because I was just eager to get to the Real Shit: Hunter x Hunter. Anime Roulette got us a winner this time. Also, James Woods, if you're reading this, do NOT listen until the end. And if you do, don't sue us. (Next week's Anime Roulette selection: Legend of the Galactic Heroes episode 94)

[Music used: Intro -- Truckin' by The Grateful Dead | Outro -- Til I Die by The Beach Boys] [Anime Roulette theme: Roulette! by Electric Six]

Week 41 [Season 4, Episode 17 / Legend of the Galactic Heroes, Episode 94]

Thu, 07 Feb 2019 04:01:00 GMT

Look, when you spin the wheel, sometimes you lose. Such is the nature of lady luck, although to be honest I place most of this blame on the person who recommended LotGH. You know who you are. Oh, and prepare for more Kingdom Hearts garbage. (Next week's Anime Roulette selection: Fist of the North Star, Episode 83! Hell yeah!) [Music/audio used: Intro - Every Time I Close My Eyes by Babyface | Outro - Clip of "The Uninformed!" from Laboring Under Delusions by Paul F Tompkins] [Anime Roulette theme: Roulette! by Electric Six]

Week 42 [Season 4, Episode 18 / Fist of the North Star, Episode 83]

Wed, 18 Mar 2026 17:44:00 GMT

After about 10 minutes discussing Star Track and whatever the hell Space Cases was, we get down to bizness: Groucho and his ice-powers. Abolish ice. Then, we experience a magical story about a large man who wanders into a town and punches another guy (who loves to take baths) until he explodes. You know, anime. (Next week's Anime Roulette selection: Fist of the North Star, episode 141! Yeah, again!)

[Music used: Intro -- Why Don't We Do It In The Road by The Beatles | Outro -- End Theme of The Dukes of Hazzard] [Anime Roulette theme: Roulette! by Electric Six]

Thu, 21 Feb 2019 04:01:00 GMT

They said it would never happen. They claimed I could never manage to wrangle some rube into an online chat with us to talk about stupid animes. They were wrong. (Follow Mr. Jimmy on Mastodon at @MrJimmy@mastodon.xyz) (Anime Roulette's selection for next week: Yakitake!! Japan, Episode 37) [Music used: Intro -- Birthday by The Beatles | Outro -- While My Guitar Gently Weeps by The Beatles] [Anime Roulette theme: Roulette! by Electric Six]

Week 44 [Season 4, Episode 20 / Yakitate!! Japan, Episode 37]

Wed, 18 Mar 2026 17:45:00 GMT

We all feel the absence of Mr. Jimmy as it's back to just the regular two chucklefucks. Doesn't help that this episode is mostly a snooze, so instead we discuss the Mountain Dew Wiki some more. Thankfully, Bread Anime was here to save the day.

(Next week's Anime Roulette selection: Toriko, episode 144)

[Music used: Intro -- 21st Century Schizoid Man by King Crimson | Outro -- clip from A Mighty Wind]

[Anime Roulette theme: Roulette! by Electric Six]

Wed, 18 Mar 2026 17:46:00 GMT

I'm sick and George is drunk, as we learn more about how King Crimson works. Meanwhile, we talk about Devil May Cry, Zombie Bucciarati, and the newest attempt at making a watchable Ghostbusters movie.

Then, Toriko happens.

(Next week's Anime Roulette selection: Street Fighter 2: The Animated Series, Episode 19. N-n-n-nineteen.)

[Anime Roulette theme: Roulette! by Electric Six]

Week 46 [Rohan OVA ep 1 / Street Fighter 2: The Animated Series, episode 19]

Thu, 14 Mar 2019 04:01:00 GMT

We head back to the warm, familiar embrace of Diamond is Unbreakable, as we watch the first episode of Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan, or whatever you want to call it, there are like 8 names for it. It sucks anyway, so whatever. Thankfully, this week is saved by an episode of the Saturday morning Street Fighter cartoon where Blanka creates peace in the Middle East. (Next week's Anime Roulette selection: Majin Bone, episode 47) [Music used: Intro -- Guile's Theme from Street Fighter 2. Also contains clips from Aqua Teen Hunger Force and George Carlin's special Complaints and Grievances] [Anime Roulette theme: Roulette! by Electric Six]

Week 47 [Season 4, Episode 22 / Majin Bone, Episode 47]

Wed, 18 Mar 2026 17:47:00 GMT

After about 20 minutes talking about the Stadia and DMC5, we get to a couple of kinda sucky episodes. At least the gayness is becoming more and more overt. That's the one good thing here.

There's also a lot of Metal Gear talk in here. I know some people are into that.

Side note: audio levels are a bit different here, my bars lied to me about our relative volumes. It'll be fixed next week, sorry for my loudness.

(Next week's Anime Roulette selection: Reborn! episode 184)

[Music used: Intro -- Moon Rocks by Talking Heads | Outro -- Police on my Back by The Clash]

Week 48 [Season 4, Episode 23 / Reborn! Episode 184]

Thu, 28 Mar 2019 04:01:00 GMT

As mentioned in the intro, if you don't want to hear me rant about Sekiro (and recent Souls games in general), that ends at around 21:40. Do not email me about how you like the game and I am wrong, because I Do Not Give A Shit. After that, we see Narancia redeem himself, and George finds out he underestimated the amount of baby content in Reborn!. (Next week's Anime Roulette selection: Tiger Mask W, episode 20) [Music used: Intro -- Guns of Brixton by The Clash | Outro -- Take Me to the River (live Stop Making Sense version) by Talking Heads] [Anime Roulette theme: Roulette! by Electric Six]

Week 49 [Season 4, Episode 24 / Tiger Mask W, Episode 20]

Wed, 18 Mar 2026 17:48:00 GMT

This week, we deal with a fairly uneventful episode by discussing Jokers, Smokers, and Midnight Tokers. We also get back to rediscovering the magic of Ulillillia's modern classic, "The Legend of the 10 Elemental Masters". Plus, wrestling! (Next week's Anime Roulette selection: Yowamushi Pedal! episode 24)

[Music used: Intro -- Juicy by Notorious B.I.G. | Outro -- Foreign Object by The Mountain Goats] [Anime Roulette theme: Roulette! by Electric Six]

Wed, 18 Mar 2026 17:49:00 GMT

This week contains more readings from Nick Smith's modern classic The Legend of the 10 Elemental Masters, because I guess that's just a regular thing now, and we consider a very lucrative new business proposition. Also a plane crashes and there are bike-abs. (Next week's Anime Roulette selection: Street Fighter II V, episode 20)

[Music used: Intro -- Say You'll Be There by the Spice Girls | Outro -- Bicycle Race by Queen] [Anime Roulette theme: Roulette! by Electric Six]

Week 51 [Season 4, Episode 26 / Street Fighter II V, Episode 20]

Wed, 18 Mar 2026 17:50:00 GMT

This week, the JoJo anime people apparently decided to just lay all their cards on the table. They didn't know when to hold them OR know when to fold them.

Anyway, a pink-haired guy talks into a frog. It's a good time.

(Next week's Roulette selection: Kaitou Sentai Lupin Ranger VS Keisatsu Sentai Patranger, episode 25)

Week 52 [Season 4, Episode 27 / Kaitou Sentai Lupin Ranger VS Keisatsu Sentai Patranger, Episode 25]

Wed, 18 Mar 2026 17:51:00 GMT

We did it. We made it a full year without murdering each other or Hirohiko Araki. So sit back and enjoy our mega-sized anniversary episode, where we kick off Tokusatsu Roulette with a hell of a banger, and continue to reference things just obscure enough that I have to include clips of them.

(Next week's Anime Roulette selection: Slam Dunk, episode 63)

[Music: Intro -- Ride the Lightning by Metallica | Outro -- Big (Stage 3) from Parappa the Rapper 2]

This week, after discussing the wild wild world of Funko Pops: We have an OVA that I thought was pretty good, but George disagreed, and then we had a Roulette where we were on the same page.

Then, uh... Some other stuff happened.

This is the Goofy Funko Pop that was mentioned: https://i.imgur.com/RnpCfGF.jpg

Thu, 16 May 2019 05:36:40 GMT

We're just having a whale of a time over here. (Next week's Tokusatsu Roulette selection: Kamen Rider Ghost, Episode 34 -- and an Executive Decision was made to also watch episode 24, the Zyuohger crossover) [Music used: Intro -- Scattered by Green Day | Outro -- Zyuohger theme] [Tokusatsu Roulette theme: Go Down Gamblin' by Blood, Sweat, & Tears]

Week 56 [Season 4, Episode 30 / Kamen Rider Ghost, Episodes 34 & 24]

Thu, 23 May 2019 05:32:11 GMT

I'm in an allergy haze and George has been bludgeoned by Kingdom Hearts, as we find that maybe watching 3 episodes was a mistake. We just wanted to see the Zyouhgers again..... (Next week's Anime Roulette selection: Black Clover, episode 71) [Music used: Intro - Sassafras Roots by Green Day | Outro - Some Might Say by Oasis] [Tokusatsu Roulette theme: Go Down Gamblin' by Blood, Sweat, & Tears]

Wed, 18 Mar 2026 17:54:00 GMT

[Music used: Intro -- Haushinka by Green Day | Outro -- Wndrwll by Neil Cicierega]

[Anime Roulette theme: Roulette! by Electric Six]

Week 58 [Season 4, Episode 32 / Hunter X Hunter, Episode 73]

Wed, 18 Mar 2026 17:55:00 GMT

Please do not send me emails, I know the "saved by the bell" thing I mentioned is not real. I'm just attempting to gaslight George yet again.

Anyway, SKET Dance fucking sucks so I just re-rolled and we got Hunter X Hunter again. Good decision! Meanwhile, we talk about Snatcher and Star Wars and whatever the hell else. I don't know what's going on any more. We're just waiting for JoJo to end at this point. Pity us.

Week 60 [Season 4, Episode 34 / Kamen Rider Ex-Aid, Episode 38]

Thu, 20 Jun 2019 07:53:15 GMT

It was only a matter of time before Tokusatsu Roulette let us down, but all things considered, it could have been much worse! It could have been something as bad as SKET Dance. And not a lot happened in JoJo this week. Just table-setting, mostly. So you know, things get a bit off-topic.

Thu, 11 Jul 2019 08:03:23 GMT

Time for everyone's favorite subject, Star Wars! Also Kamen Rider. And there was some business about an arrow and a guy dying. We're almost done. Jesus Christ in heaven please let us go free. (Due to the show being off for the next couple of weeks, no Roulette this time... But we'll be back next week regardless.)

Thu, 18 Jul 2019 04:02:23 GMT

This week on Star Tracking, after discussing Final Fantasy X and Blazing Chrome, we get a wacky Ferengi adventure, as Quark, Rom, and Nog travel back to Roswell, New Mexico in the 1940s. Hijinx ensue! [Music used: Intro -- Deep Space Nine theme | Outro -- Space Truckin' by Deep Purple]

Week 65 [Furious 7]

Thu, 25 Jul 2019 04:08:54 GMT

This week, we discuss Furious 7, the final movie featuring Paul Walker. It also has Kurt Russell and Jason Statham, so this is pretty much the best one. [Music used: Intro -- Stickshifts and Safetybelts by Cake | Outro -- Drive My Car by The Beatles]

Stay tuned.

Week 67 [Season 5, Episodes 1-4 - Start of Part 6: Stone Ocean]

Thu, 29 Dec 2022 05:01:44 GMT

We're Back! A Dinosaur's Story! The dinosaurs are US, because we're OLD MEN here to talk about ANIME! ~It's been~ 3 years, but we're going to discuss more of the JoJos, and this time it's about WOMEN in PRISON! Unfortunately, Pam Grier isn't here, but we have plenty of colorful characters to get acquainted with. We're going to speculate on the bust size of all of them. That's the Stand and Deliver guarantee!

Please bear with us for these first couple of weeks as we get back into the Groove. I barely remember my parent's birthdays, you think I remember how to make a podcast?

[Music used: Intro -- "Pump It Up" by Elvis Costello. | Outro -- "Stone Free" by The Jimi Hendrix Experience]

Week 68 [Season 5, Episodes 5-8]

Thu, 05 Jan 2023 05:01:16 GMT

This week, we find out what happened with Manhattan Transfer! Or I did, George already watched this episode last week because he doesn't know how numbers work, I guess. He's trying to make me look the fool, but I will have the last laugh... I sent him a Batman comic, but little does he know that I have also included in the package a very deadly bacteria that will cause a powerful infection. Let's see how this plays out. He can't resist Batman.

Oh, and Foo Fighters shows up here. That happens I guess. Something about Jotaro? I dunno.

[Music used: Intro -- "Monkey Wrench" by Foo Fighters | Outro -- "Strutter" by KISS]

Week 69 [Season 5, Episodes 9-12]

Thu, 12 Jan 2023 05:01:32 GMT

This week, we have the most explicit liver-ripping action since John Waters' 1994 classic Serial Mom! Then we have the debut of our new pal Weather Report, who's here to help Jolyne battle some absolute freak who shoots his nuts at her. Metal nuts, yknow, like as in "nuts and bolts". Man, Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts was a good game. Too bad they never made another. I know there's Besiege, and it's sort of a similar thing, but you want the Bear and Bird goofin around, yknow? Just not the same without them. There's something in here about poison frogs too.

[Music used: Intro -- "Birdland" by Weather Report | Outro -- "I Want You" by Savage Garden]

Week 70 [Season 5, Episodes 13-16]

Thu, 19 Jan 2023 05:01:44 GMT

We're back in the groove! We remembered how to make podcasts! No more Low-Energy Bull Shit, we're here to ROCK and ROLL and GET STUCK IN SHIT-PIPES and SHOOT ALLIGATORS! Limp Bizkit is here and he's being a real freak as we engage in more Bone Identification and talk at length about the Martin McDonagh film The Banshees of Inisherin. George also gives a trip report on M-Three-Gan. If only Roger Ebert was alive to see it... He would love M3GAN.

Oh, and the Golden Gizmos/Gremmies are up, here: https://anchor.fm/destroy/episodes/The-2022-Golden-Gizmos-and-Gremmies-e1tmkt9

Week 71 [Season 5, Episodes 17-20]

Thu, 26 Jan 2023 05:04:36 GMT

Somehow, Shigechi has returned...

But anyway, this week, we witness the birth of a new... Character? Stand? Saibaman? Not entirely sure so far, but there's definitely a bunch of grotesque body horror included. Remember that part in The Thing where they're using a defibrillator on the guy? Hahaha yeah it was pretty cool. Why am I asking? No reason. Nothing to be concerned about.

[Music used: Intro -- "Leave It" by Yes | Outro -- "Number One Spot" by Ludacris]

Week 72 [Season 5, Episodes 21-24]

Wed, 18 Mar 2026 17:59:00 GMT

We're back with the most nonsensical stand yet! Don't you hate when you get the Memento Disease and it makes your eyes not work? Well, that happens to Jolyne, after narrowly escaping an encounter with Pucci. Some other members of the crew aren't so lucky...

By the way, the knives-fighting thing I mention, that George tried to gaslight me into thinking I had imagined, was a fight from Yu Yu Hakusho. A series that he has also seen. The other thing was just me thinking about strap matches in wrestling, I guess, and combining them. But I didn't make it up! I'm not crazy! I'M NOT CRAZY!!!

Week 73 [Season 5, Episodes 25-28]

Thu, 09 Feb 2023 05:01:22 GMT

This week, Araki read an article about Rods and decided he wanted to draw Astro Boy. All normal occurrences for JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, because, heh heh, I tell you whut, this Adventure sure is Bizarre! The important thing is, we spend most of this episode doing bad impressions. Some bad on purpose, some not. Which is which? We'll let YOU be the judge!! Sound off in the comments! Like and subscribe! Ring that bell for notifications! Kill me and put all of my body parts in separate trash bags so it's impossible to trace!

Week 74 [Season 5, Episodes 29-32]

Wed, 18 Mar 2026 18:00:00 GMT

This week, after George is done airing his grievances against his local GameStop, we continue the battle against Underworld, debate the merits of excessive profanity, and say goodbye to a member of the Stone Ocean crew...

[Music used: Intro -- "Born Slippy" by Underworld | Outro -- "Just Another Day (Boingo Alive version)" by Oingo Boingo. Because there's life underground.]

Week 75 [Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan: "At a Confessional" and "The Run"]

Thu, 23 Feb 2023 05:01:30 GMT

Detour One (of two) sees us checking out the Rohan episodes that came out while we were both in our Michael Jackson-style hibernation tubes. Because there are only two episodes, we end up filling time with more terrible impressions, because that's what the people love! I assume. I don't have comments turned on here, because I don't need LITERALLY TENS of people telling me I sound like a freak nerd. I already know that! Believe me! We want this to remain an echo chamber, just like when we're in our Tubes. Anyway, sound off in the comments if you think we should do the YuYu Haku-Show,

[Music used: Intro -- "Running on a Treadmill" by Oingo Boingo | Outro -- "Here It Goes Again" by OK Go]

Week 76 [Diamond is Unbreakable: Chapter 1]

Wed, 18 Mar 2026 18:01:00 GMT

This week, we watched the live-action adaptation of the first few episodes of Part 4! It's not good, and there's no reason for you to watch it! So in addition, we talk about games we've been playing recently. In my case, Atomic Heart (eh), and in George's case, JoJo All-Star Battle R (blech). Somewhere in-between, I get confused about the races of fictional characters. You know... Standard stuff. Back to Stone Ocean next week!

[Music used: Intro -- "Diamond Bollocks" by Beck | Outro -- "She's White" by Electric Six]

Week 77 [Season 5, Episodes 33-35]

Thu, 09 Mar 2023 05:01:46 GMT

We're here! The Final Countdown! Pucci is here too, and he has a new stand named after an absolutely awful Paul McCartney song. Will Jolyne and the crew be able to stop him before he reaches Heaven? Uhhh, I don't know, I think that'll be next week.

Week 78 [Season 5, Episodes 36-38 - End of Part 6: Stone Ocean]

Wed, 18 Mar 2026 18:02:00 GMT

It's the final showdown! And then it's the final showdown again! And then it's, uh, the end? Pucci really made a mess of things here. Along the way, we lament the mistreatment of Foo Fighters and I have to instruct George about proper footwear etiquette in Japan. We also do a final ranking of the Parts and discuss our favorite/least favorite characters of Stone Ocean.

But, hey, this is it. A sincere thanks to anyone who's been listening, whether you were here from the beginning or joined for Stone Ocean. I hope we'll be able to come back for Steel Ball Run, whenever that will be, but for now, this is goodbye.

Back in the Saddle Again: A Stand and Deliver Wellness Check

Sat, 14 Mar 2026 17:40:29 GMT

MILLIONS OF YEARS AGO, Larry Davis and George Brundle began a podcast about JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. Now, they have been awoken from their millennia-long slumber, as the advent of Steel Ball Run draws near...

Week 79 [Season 6, Episode 1 - Start of Part 7: Steel Ball Run]

Tue, 24 Mar 2026 18:56:15 GMT

The two old bastards are at it again! We're 3 years older, and no years wiser, since the last time JoJo's Bizarre Adventure was on the air. Like a couple of unfrozen cavemen, we're thrust once again into Modern Pop Culture (based on a manga that started in the 1980s), as we pretend to understand that which frightens and confuses us.

CORRECTIONS: When George was rambling about "Sagittarius," he meant Secretariat. When I mentioned "Winning Eleven," I meant Winning Post. Since recording, some more facts about Steven Steel have come to light, but those will have to wait for a future episode... Which might be several months from now.
