Grand Sumo Breakdown

The 4th pro sumo tournament of the year is upon us. Will Onosato continue his ascent or can one of the veterans finally slow him down?

Ryan keeps Jake captive long enough to explain the 2 massive crimes committed by the makers of the Nagoya banzuke.

Ryan and Jake take a look at a banzuke with some wild gaps that need filling.

The US National Sumo Tournament took place June 1st in San Diego, hosted by Honu Sumo. Join us to talk about it with Raijin Sumo's Sensei Seth Adams and Honu's Mengkin Ragan! We talk about how Seth got into sumo and go through the results of the tournament.

The May tournament started out wild and the finale didn't disappoint. The guys break down this second consecutive historic basho.

Check out this link to get an Onosato shirt from our friend SumoBola!

*SPOILERS THRU DAY 8*

This basho is plagued by injuries, but we don't let that dampen our sumo hype! Mostly. Probably. Kinda.

Salt City Sumo's Goose and JJ join us to talk about their show and our recent meeting at the Rollertown Showdown in Dallas. Also featuring a special guest making his amateur sumo bonus episode debut: Iowa Sumo/GSB's very own Flyric!

After Takerufuji's historic win, the story this time seems to be a bit more pessimistic as the Ghost of Injuries Past comes to haunt the Natsu basho....

So where did Takerufuji land? And more importantly, was Ryan able to hang on to his Best Banzuke Guy trophy after a tough prediction?

Where the heck does Takerufuji deserve to be on the next banzuke? Ryan has a lot to say about it.
