About Sumo Kaboom
Sumo Kaboom! A weekly podcast dedicated to our favorite sport - sumo wrestling. We chat about tournaments, current events, history and our favorite wrestlers. We are performers, improvisers, and creators and have absolutely no sumo training. But, we are huge sumo fans. Having lived in Japan, Leslie loves the history and traditions of sumo. She also has a deep love for sumo karaoke singers. Laurie is fascinated by sumo wrestler fandom, the sumo training regimen and physicality of the sport. Together, we serve up exciting sumo treats for sumo-curious fans. We share an enthusiasm for sumo and like all sisters, we work amazingly well together. All of the time. There are never any issues. Ever. We also occasionally send out sumo related content. It is NOT hard-hitting sumo journalism and is usually very silly. If you want to receive our writing about all things sumo or receive notification when Sumo BINGO cards are available, join our Substack below. We won't ever share your info, because we hate spam, too.

[…] There was some distance between them. They separated their bodies and then both of them went in again for a push. Just at that moment, Chura Naumi's head just hit the bottom of Kota Shoho's chin. And it completely clocked Kota Shoho. He just crumbled to the ground. Head injuries in particular, really tough to watch. And that one, like a good knock on the chin that just completely flattened him in a very unnatural way was, I found very scary to watch. I mean, Kota Shoho got up right away. He bowed, he walked off, but you could tell that something was off. And he then didn't come back for the rest of the basho. […]
