Episode 2: The Art of Sumo

When it comes to sumo, the words "incredibly athletic", "smart", or "strategic" don't often come to mind, at least in the West. But in Japan, the sport of sumo has a long and storied history and is rich with tradition. It is a critical part of Japanese culture and today, we explore how the sport might also take form as an art.

Here's the link to that video:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dW7n2UP60bk  And the link to the recipe for Chanko Nabe if you'd like to try making it yourself:  https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/8qejkb/chanko-nabe
