DJ/Suijin has recovered from COVID, mostly, and is having himself a post-basho pity party as he’s prepared nothing!

After many a month trying to coordinate schedules, DJ/Suijin is finally joined by the mysterious Ookumizu!

Set up for a live video on the RTY Discord, Tetsuba and Amao (formerly Kanashiberi) jumped in for a chat… but like a dope, I (Suijin) hadn’t set up to record the audio from Discord, so you can only hear my audio. A good conversation lost to stupidity. D’oh.

It’s a little late this week as DJ (Suijin) forgot that Sunday was the first day of his two day weekend and not the last day. A banzuke/leaderboard overview of what has transpired for block 4’s matches is gone over, there’s some talk about the IRL banzuke that was recently released (with Ura tattoo mention!) but no Guess the Banzuke release, and we end the podcast with some imminent intai talk involving the forced retirements of rikishi as well as DJ’s own real life impending retirement (in no sooner than a decade). Fun times.

With the imminent departure of a lot of the upper echelon in Makuuchi, Road to Yokozuna is reviewed under the close eye of Suijin as he looks at the Yusho races in all three divisions to see who has the leads, who is close, and who still has a chance… it’s still wicked early, so don’t read too much into this excitement.
