Welcome back to Sumo Drop!

Film director and film critic Matthew Stogdon is back with filmmaker, writer and podcaster Emma-Jane Corsan & artist and writer Mark Fox to cover the halfway point of Sumo Wrestling's September tournament: the Aki Basho.

This week we've got an absolutely mammoth episode for you. Nearly 2 hours of discussion about how this latest basho ended up panning out, as well as a heated debate about the Emperor's Cup was won. All that and more, so let's get straight to it!

This podcast is designed for both veteran supporters or anyone curious, looking to get into Japan's national sport. For an introduction to the sport, please check out our guide to sumo: https://soundcloud.com/bbgwpod/sumo-drop-guide-to-sumo, additionally, Matt and Em appeared on the Fandomentals podcast covering all the basics, so be sure to tune into that: https://linktr.ee/FandomentalsPodcast

So chuck some salt in the air and step into the ring, it's time for Sumo Drop!
