The History of Sumo
In the Shinto religion a battle between Deities for control of Japan was settled with a wrestling match. That wrestling match was the first mention of Sumo in Japanese culture. Sumo is the national sport of Japan, but it is so much more than that. It's a culture. It's a lifestyle. Listen in as we get Historically High on Sumo!
