We did ALL the sumo things at the Kokugikan in Tokyo!
We stood in very neat and orderly lines. We met retired wrestlers and took photos with them. We spoke in Japanese and hilariously bungled our language skills. We took photos of sumo wrestlers entering the arena and cheered them on with gusto! We got a taste of true Japanese hospitality from Konishiki and his friends. We bought sumo merch we didn't know we needed. We sweated in the humidity. We saw Takakeisho's last fight of his career. We saw just how popular Onosato is. We saw just how beautiful Abi's shiko is. We met so many lovely people.
Hear all about it on this episode. FYI On our YouTube channel, we shared many of these stories after each day at the tournament. If you'd rather watch us than listen to us, check us out there.

Talking through the most recent banzuke. Because, we can hardly remember who won the last tournament. We need reminders!

There were female samurai, and they were dangerous! And beautiful! And rode horses well! And were excellent spies! And rode on the front lines of battle!
We're telling you about two ladies of lore today - Tomoe Gozen and Nakano Takeko.

Welcome back for another sumo-related discussion, this time about what makes a dai-yokozuna. We also tell you about a shrine in Fukuoka where you can go pick up a power stone!
Many thanks to John Gunning, who wrote a wonderful article for the Japan Times about this topic!
