Listening to this podcast helped strengthen my love and knowledge of sumo! great content every episode!

“I’m eating beans!” That Trent Sabo interview was some of the funniest/intense smack sumo talk I’ve ever heard. Love the podcast guys!

I live in Japan and love sumo. This is the only podcast I listen to that gives me all the info I need. Love the humor and back-and-forth the fellows have. A must listen if you follow Japan’s national sport. Keep it up gents!

Fun

Who would have thought that BINGO is all it would take to get you to root for Kagayaki? Thx for playing, guys, & keep up the good work!

Great podcast. Very good podcast. No racist rap battles to be seen and true Sumo content is there too.

This podcast is great for English speaking sumo fans!

These guys bring so much passion to their love of sumo. I’ve been following them for 2 ish years now and have enjoyed every minute of it. They make their own fake commercials, do fantasy sumo drafts and have a great podcast dynamic. Just a great way to get into, and follow, sumo as an English speaker.

Mass respect to these guys and their love of sumo. you can tell their just as passionate, or even more passionate about the sport then a lot us, and I hope they keep up with the fantastic work! ... now let’s just hope the ITunes algorithm doesn’t screw then over!

Have been listening to these guys for the past 6 or so basho. A lot of fun listening to these guys talk Sumo. For those of us American Sumo fanatics who can’t seem to convince a group of your buddies to get into this sport, you’ll find a lot of enjoyment listening to these guys. Great comedic tone and very informative (what I also enjoy in Chris Gould’s videos). Highly recommend

Thank god for BSG! Before they came along, the podcast world was a desert of sumo content. These guys are insightful, have great commentary, and a comfortable dynamic with each other – think hanging out with your buddies and talking rikishi. In addition to the “breakdown” itself, I find the fun facts, news tidbits, and end of basho awards to be the best parts of the show. I do have a couple of critiques: 1. I don’t understand why there is both a prediction series AND a fantasy league. Honestly, I’m not involved and I can’t remember who you guys pick anyway so I usually just skip past these parts. I might be persuaded to listen to one or the other if it’s a short segment but not both. 2. Some people really geek out about banzuke predictions so I understand the need to keep it in the show but speed it up. It’s really not that interesting to listen to. 3. Ryan needs to understand that Hokutofuji is a chump and Goeido will always be a better rik. Thanks for the great podcast, fellas!

Love the passion these guys have for sumo. Really gives me something to listen to since I don’t have anyone else into sumo.

Funny at times, but lacking in knowledge, pronounciations, and reverence in other moments. I really wanted to like this; this could be better balanced with more informed and cultivated commentary. Tachiai’s occasional podcast is a much better pick at this time.

This was a terrific sumo podcast. But the latest episode on WWE was quite the disappointment. We come to listen to sumo talk. I’ll try once more, but if it’s not back to sumo I’ll take my complaint to Chiyo, Chiyo, Chiyo, and Chiyo!

This is an excellent and thorough podcast that’s also entertaining. I like all the hosts and the information is a great mix where there’s something for novices and for experts. ONLY REASON this isn’t getting five stars is cause the hosts really need to work on their pronunciation of the Japanese terms. Please! :P

Fun, informative group of guys who don’t take themselves too seriously. Definitely worth a listen especially if you are new to watching Sumo.

I'm new to sumo and really enjoying your commentary. Thanks!

As a Rikishi in US Sumo, and an over all lover of Sumo, I'm pretty stoked about there being a podcast, and I love the knowledge you have in such a short amount of time watching...but please learn to say the Rikishi's names properly. Maybe it's just be but it's like scratching a chalkboard despite the great comentary. Listening to the commentators on NHK network might help. I'd like to see the podcast go far and I just see that as a hurdle that's all :).

I been looking for a good podcast of sumo I live in Ohio and can. Catch some of them on you tube Jason Harris all sumo channel is the best yet but you guys are awesome. Your first episode was great and informative I learned a lot of terms and what they mean thank you. You guys give great insight into the sport you give updates and do stuff in the off months to keep me coming back for more. Fantastic job!!! Well done!!!
