New Episode alert! This week we gave tribute to one of the greats, Akebono, the 64th Yokozuna. We spoke to people who simply knew him as “Chad,” the sweet and kind kid from Waimānalo, who would one day find himself in Japan at the top of the sport. He became the first foreign born Yokozuna and a true Grand Champion of sumo. One thing we learned this week from our interviews with his friends, he was loved by so many and his aloha spirit continues on in the hearts of all those who knew him and loved him.
❤️ Many thanks to our contributors… John Jacques, Lynn Matsuoka & Bumbo Kalima for your stories about this great man and friend to many.
