Another sumo drought is finally ending, and we can’t help but ramble on about it for hours. Thanks again to everyone who submitted sumo related movie titles, we got so many that we even included a clip from a Sumo Vault Classic at 1:21:03. Send us any comments or corrections on Twitter or Facebook or leave us a message at 805-613-SUMO (7866)

The Midwest is cold AF this week, so we keep warm by cozying up by the fire and blasting each other point blank with nerf guns. Also chat about sumo I guess. Good times. Check out our medical sponsor at 50:58 and leave us a message at 805-613-SUMO (7816).

Sumo’s finally back so you get to listen to more sumo podcasts, lucky you! Can Mitakeumi follow up his first yusho? Will Kisenosato finally finish a tournament? Is there anywhere you can go to escape the American political season? Probably not, hopefully, and no. We have breaks at 51:35 and 1:25:14 but you can feel free to call us to complain anytime at 805-613-SUMO (7866).

Congratulations to first-time tournament champion Mitakeumi! Regardless of injuries to some of the top guys, this basho was just lousy with young talent shining brightly and proving that the next generation will be just as exciting as the last. Join us for commentary, poor jokes, word from a sponsor at 40:05, and one last wedding quiz for Mak before he joins the ranks of married men. As always, find us on social media or drop us a line at 805-613-SUMO (7866).

I’ve decided to try my hand a predicting the banzuke for the upcoming Nagoya Basho. As someone who has watched sumo for a little under 2 years and having never tried this before I feel that this will be the definitive banzuke prediction you will find on the internet. Like I said on the podcast if I get more than two spots incorrect on this list I will consider this whole thing a complete and utter failure.
