A new sumo year is upon us, and with it, the changing of the guard. Join the boys as a new start to the show is introduced in glorious fashion and see how they prognosticate on 2025. How many Yokozuna will there be? How many Ozeki? Do you agree with what the guys think will happen?

A belated look at the rankings going into the first pro sumo tournament of the new year.

Ryan, Jake, and Mak do their best to keep up with sumo news over the holidays. Fortunately for them, there kinda isn't a ton to cover.

As the year comes to a close, Ryan predicts what we'll see on the banzuke for the first tournament of 2025.

Can you believe another year as come and gone? Neither can we. Join us as we recount the biggest stories of the year. We also revisit our predictions they made at the beginning of the year and see who wound up with the most points. The winner gets the immense honor of introducing each of our episodes in 2025!

We asked, you voted, now the results are in! Thank you to everyone who participated in our 2024 Sumo Popularity poll. How did it all shake out? Join us as we review and discuss the results.

Ryan, Flyric, and Jake (and kinda Mak?) go over the final basho of 2024 and what it means for sumo going into the new year. Flyric has a near death experience with some wings, and Ryan graces us with another song from a listener.

*SPOILERS THRU DAY 8*

It's turning out to be an excellent Kyushu basho. Join us to discuss the highlights so far and what to expect in week 2.
