A podcast generously released by two legendary members of JSA South. What a treat.

Great observation and they’re enthusiasm for Sumo can’t be beat! I’m so happy they’re back to every day of the tournament

Great pre, during & post basho coverage. Only problem is y’all record with the volume so low. I can’t hear you over everything else with my osha limited 85db noise deadening head phones. Please record louder. Remember we can always turn it down but the volume limit is the limit. I’ll happily...Read full review »

Words cannot truly describe how much I love this podcast. I've honestly listened to hours, and on most days to the point Amy & Dave have started to feel more like friends (or friends I'd be very happy to have). Their passion & knowledge for sumo is infectious and coupled with...Read full review »

Amy and Dave are an absolute delight. Keep up the good work!

Not too over my head with stats and technical talk, not too silly. Just the right amount of funny and also very knowledgeable. This is the podcast I immediately listen to every episode and use to follow along with the Basho. Listening to Amy and Dave feels like sitting around and talking about...Read full review »

Amy and Dave are the best. They really know their sumo, and I have learned so much from listening to them.

By far my favorite Sumo podcast. Super informative and entertaining. As a dude on the east coast of the USA, day by day coverage of each basho really rocks.

My partner and I have listened to all the English language sumo podcasts we can find, and I’m so happy we found this brilliant podcast last year. Funny, irreverent, informed, and full of so many ‘yes, that’s what I thought too!’ moments. My favourite English language sumo podcast by far. Thank...Read full review »

I discovered this podcast just before the latest Basho and am so glad I did. I’ve learned a lot but it’s also like chewing it over with your friends the next day. Really enjoyed it. Looking forward to the next one.

Amy and Dave do a great job! Their coverage is in-depth, informative, witty and humorous. I enjoy and understand Sumo so much better after I discovered their show.

Dave and Amy combine great sumo knowledge with him our and wit to perfectly wrap up a full day of sumo action into each podcast.

After catching up on the day’s matches, there’s nothing better than tuning in to Sumo Mainichi to hear the recap and discussion. It feels like hanging out with a group of fun, well-informed, sumo-loving friends.

Givning me a deeper understanding of the wonderfull world of sumo. Lacking coovering in my native language (swedish) tjos Australien couple gives me booth knowledge and a little gossip.

A cute, fun recap of sumo basho with a great theme song!

If you’re an American Sumo fan, chances are you’re pretty lonely outside of Reddit. Fortunately you have Sumo Manichi, which is the closest thing this Sumo fan has found to talking to two friends about a great Basho. Each tournament day, I watch the action, then I take a walk and listen to the...Read full review »

I love sumo and was looking for a podcast just like this! Had everything I wanted as far as coverage, recording quality and commentary. The two hosts are also delightful to listen to and funny. Will definitely be listening to them more in the future. Hope you guys see this! -from your new fan...Read full review »

I really enjoy the daily recaps of the basho—the consistency and quality of Amy and Dave’s output is truly impressive. And the extra segments they’ve started including (like the karaoke corner) are a real treat. Thanks for the great podcast guys!

Really enjoy the enthusiastic roundups of the days’ action. Great opening song too!

Dave & Amy at Sumo Mainichi do such a good job. Treat yourself & have a listen! They truly love the sport & their enthusiasm is infectious!

New to Sumo this year. This crew has been helping me gain greater understanding and appreciation for the sport. Happy to wake up watch Sumo Natto, hit the road, and then play Sumo Mainichi. I can pronounce the Rikishi’s names better and learned the term Henka from this podcast and why it’s...Read full review »

Being on the other side of the world it’s hard for me to stay up every night for the basho...but when I wake up up at 4AM and I’m trying to combat the demons Sumo Mainichi is there! Amazing that they cover everyday and with such quick turnaround! Straightforward and funny...keep it up!
Timmystinytasks via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/11/20
It is unbelievable to me that these two post daily during the entirety of the bashos. They have a great spirit and I never tire of hearing their tales on the match-ups. Seeing as how I watch the matches when I wake up, this podcast immediately follows. Love it.

I try to catch the NHK world highlights daily at 1830 (EST) and sometimes at work at 1230 (shhh). I then follow up with NattoSumo to catch all bouts they don’t cover. I always end the day with a pipe and Sumo Mainichi for their lovely breakdown of each match. They do an excellent job doing deeper...Read full review »

Sumo is not the easiest sport to follow when you live in the west, both in terms of access to content and people to talk with. So having a podcast with daily episodes during each Basho is absolutely invaluable. Well informed and always passionate, the Sumo Mainichi podcast has quickly become a...Read full review »
