President of the Swiss Sumo Society: Richard Neal

We had such a fantastic time interviewing Richard Neal, president of the Swiss Sumo Society and head instructor of the upcoming Sumo Boot Camp in Davenport, Iowa on October 15th. We've never learned so much about sumo in one interview! I've never valued and respected any president of anything as much as Richard! We got to hear his views on the difference between European sumo and U.S. sumo, which pro rikishi have the best personalities and which have the worst, some very interesting details on what to expect at the Sumo Boot Camp this weekend, as well as the Swiss Sumo Open next month, and that dreaded wild species that seems to only be indigenous to North America... the Karen!  Link to Sumo Boot Camp event page: https://fb.me/e/41FV5Tpnd Grab some sweet sumo merch: https://www.redbubble.com/people/SumoPunx/ Or toss some coin into our tip bucket: https://ko-fi.com/sumopunx Find Sumo Punx podcast episodes on...
