Description

Woowwee. This week is a crazy mashup of stories.

First off, Angie shares a Japanese festival called Nakizumo, where sumo wrestlers attempt to make babies cry, on purpose.

Theresa overcomes her feelings about this to share the story of Richard Sakakida, a Nisei (a first-generation Japanese American) sent to spy on the Japanese in Manilla before the US's entrance to WWII. She shares his capture, torture, and survival. It's a lot.

 

These stories pair well with:
The Spaghetti Hoax

The Time the Japanese bombed Oregon during WWII
