A weekly podcast dedicated to our favorite sport - sumo wrestling. We chat about tournaments, current events, history and our favorite wrestlers. We are performers, improvisers, and creators and have absolutely no sumo training. But, we are huge sumo fans. Having lived in Japan, Leslie loves the history and traditions of sumo. She also has a deep love for sumo karaoke singers. Laurie is fascinated by sumo wrestler fandom, the sumo training regimen and physicality of the sport. Together, we serve up exciting sumo treats for sumo-curious fans. We share an enthusiasm for sumo and like all sisters, we work amazingly well together. All of the time. There are never any issues. Ever. We also occasionally send out sumo related content. It is NOT hard-hitting sumo journalism and is usually very silly.

And who is this new guy, Hiradoumi? 40:00 yes First, there is sumo news to share about Keisei, Kakuryu, and the next tournament. Then we focus on Hiradoumi (a new guy in the top ranks) and Chiyotairyu (not a new guy in the top ranks). They have surprisingly different stories even though they both starting sumo training in their elementary years. Guess which one has the nickname "Getz." Oops. We talk a lot about how Hiradoumi is only 5'8" in this episode, but he's 5.8 feet, which means he's 5'10"ish. Geez.
