Kamahiko, Kaitetsu, Asabariki, Terukaze, Tamanosato, and the gloriously bald Genbu decided it’s time to hold the S3 Champ/Chump draft (since no one contacted me about the non-live draft possibility this time)… Enkaga comes in late and chooses his rookie season options at the very end, too. The gang talks about both Banzukes (IRL and RTY), […]

No Kaitetsu or Tamanosato as they travel on their extravagant yacht to glorious places like Malta, Venice, and Bermuda playing soccer/football on their full sized pitch. Yes, a yacht with a full sized pitch. In the meantime, Asabariki and Kamahiko take the lead on interviewing former Ozeki Akamidori about their career, their heya, Kumamidori’s future, […]

Guess the Banzuke talk! Kirigaya Oyakata interview talk! Kagayaki sucks!

When you start the show with two false starts, things don’t look so good… that turned out to be fine, though, as Genbu was joined by Enkaga, Tamanosato, Kamahiko, Asabariki, and late in the show Ex-Akamidori (Kirigaya Oyakata) to discuss the state of RTY’s current basho, the updated Champ/Chump standings, the RTY banzuke (including speculation […]

Genbu, Enkaga, Tamanosato, Kamahiko, Kaitetsu, and Asabariki get together with lurkers Toryuken, Kaikaryu, and Shitayama, with a surprise visit from Terukaze to pick a new Champ with Tetsuwan’s intai for the Champ/Chump series… we have some live bouts (not as chaotic as last time), we talk about the Champ/Chump standings, Easter weekend is upon us, […]

Genbu, Enkaga, Tamanosato, Kamahiko, Kaitetsu, and Asabariki get together with a lurking Tentoryu to have so many live matches it is a blast of overlapping voices… which then suddenly ends to have a lot of coherent conversation about the IRL basho that ended today, a little about our Champ/Chump series in the first few hours […]

Genbu, Tamanosato, Kamahiko, Kaitetsu, and Asabariki get together for a Dohyo Download extravaganza! They talk about bodily functions, bad behavior in the dohyo, Kagayaki’s unusually terrible basho, Hakuoho’s unusually terrible basho, who is likely to win the Yusho, who Genbu paid to put salt in who’s mawashi, historic 0-15 runs in IRL sumo, who Kamahiko […]

It is draft day for the Champ/Chump series as Terukaze becomes the Season 2 rookie in the live draft for our second run at picking.

Tamanosato runs the show as we ask Kaitetsu all about the wonderful art of his Kensho-Mawashi, some history about the Kensho-Mawashi, and listener questions about what you all would like to know about them as well! Then we dive into topics like Genbu’s next segment of his sleeve tattoo, the IRL banzuke is about, holding […]

Genbu woke up LATE to join Kamahiko, Asabariki, Tamanosato, Enkaga, Toryuken, Kudasaru, Senshi, Midorimaru, and Daisashoryu in a big old mess of topics… including Genbu learning that Hokuseiho is some sort of monster, Miyagano is in big trouble, Champ/Chump needs more players, we go off on many a tangent, and there is so much more! […]

Daisashoryu has written a book about Chiyonofuji and the Dohyo Download has the skinny about the details! Kaitetsu takes the lead as we interview him about the details of the book and a little bit more (all sumo related)! Tamanosato and Genbu join in while Kamahiko, Takaryu, and Tetsuwan join the fun as well. Genbu […]
