Thanks for tuning in to our podcast!

Welcome to Season 4, Episode 7! It’s no secret that we love sumo. We even talk about AAPI in Professional Sumo back in S02E40. So it was really exciting to get a chance to have a conversation with Ter, the creator of the YouTube channel SumoStew. She’s one of our favorite content creators… definitely our favorite who covers sumo. It all comes down to her passion and creativity. Her videos mix authentic voice with thorough research and eye-catching graphics.

So in this conversation Ter takes time to talk about her love of sumo, her process of creating episodes, the challenges of being a YouTube content creator, her reflections on the recently completed January Basho (tournament), her hopes for the upcoming March Basho, and a lot more. If you want to learn what mawashi (the belt rikishi wear) trend Ter would love to see or the fighting style she’d adopt if she was a rikishi, then listen to the episode! We highly recommend finding SumoStew on YouTube... and if you’re a fan of her work, then consider supporting SumoStew on Patreon as well.
