This is a continuation of our series of interviews with the founders of sumo clubs from all over the US. What is it like to start your own sumo club? What are the risks and rewards? Where can you set up practice space? What are good ways to recruit new members? Who's going to make the chankonabe this week? In this episode we talk to Nicholas Ton and Paul Gutierrez of Shogeki Sumo Club in Houston, Texas about how kids make the best sumo fans, recruiting anime fans, and how everyone is a fan of shirtless Paul. 

You can find Shogeki Sumo Club on their Instagram.
