Kinboshi Sumo

Yokozuna Hoshoryu and former champion Wakatakakage BOTH return to competition in Fukuoka! Phil is here to break down what the prospectus looks like for both men moving forward! (Sorry for the day late drop... life has been jam packed over here at Kinboshi HQ, I appreciate your patience and appreciate you stickin' with me team!)

Sean is back to preview the November Basho and chat a little Godzilla in honor of Godzilla Minus Zero coming out this week! Is Yokozuna Onosato King of the Monsters or will the likes of Ozeki Aonishiki chase him down? Who knows?! But we're gonna talk about it!

Just a quick reaction to the banzuke! I've got a half dozen guys whose current banzuke stock intrigues me! Who are you buying high or low and selling high or low on?

The 2026 Sumo World Championships are behind us and a new era begins for the International Sumo Federation as former Yokozuna Hakuho steps in to lead the organization! I've got some thoughts, and wanted to bring Kellyann Ball's voice back into the conversation but I want to hear yours as well! Shoot us an email at: [email protected] 

Quick solo podcast for you today! Hoshoryu is back on tour and training. So is Wakatakakage as he prepares for a return. Will both he and Yokozuna be back in November? Also, I dig into the next rising giant Asahifuji who will officially make his sekitori debut in November!
