The Surprising World of Sumo Wrestling: How to See Japan's National Sport LIVE

Sumo Wrestling is Japan's National Sport but not something tourists often get to experience. However, Alun, now a Tokyo resident and our Japan correspondent, has been lucky enough to nab some tickets to the Nagoya Basho: an annual Grand Sumo tournament. Tune in to find out how to see this surprising and misunderstood sport LIVE.
Support the show and join our Patreon community. This week, Alun shares a story of him catching a night bus that maybe only he could have caught. Trust the punctuality of Japanese public transport with your life!
