  • RTG? 064: The Monster Truck of Theseus

    Whatever success this show has, it earned it, Guy-dammit! Not at all like the Guys the gang is going discuss today, as Hosts James and Diaz welcome back Very Special Guest Xavier onto the show so the three of them can discuss Nepo-Baby Guys.

    First up James introduces the team to a legacy baseballer with a nose for trouble (14:54); before Xavier gives a crash course on a Guy who very much did not dig his own grave (38:31); and finally, Diaz wraps it up and delivers the final blow to all these kids living off name recognition (56:54). But though the paths for these Guys may have been made easier by their parents, only one of those paths this week will lead to induction in the Hall. (1:21:10)

  • RTG? 063: Much Alou About Nothing

    This show itself may be a celebration of fandom already, but Hosts James and Diaz are ready to take that a little more literally than usual as they welcome back to the show their Very Special Guest Xavier so the three can this time discuss Guys With Memorable Fan Interactions.

    James starts off by taking a stab at a story about things sneaking up on you at the top (20:10); then Diaz makes sure to not drop the ball as his Guy runs a-foul of some problems (47:39); and finally Xavier tries to bring some positivity via an interaction with just a little more heart (1:16:49). These Guys have tangled with fans before and come out on the other side, but when they run into the Guy-bunal this time, only one will be able to find their way into the Hall! (1:30:00)

    If you'd like to join the team in their contributions to local abortion funds for James's bike journey, you can find out more at the websites for Baltimore Abortion Fund, First State Abortion Fund, and Abortion Liberation Fund of PA.

  • RTG? 062: That's Not A Guy... THAT'S A Guy!

    Life isn't a sprint, but it's not a marathon either. No, dear listener, life is a relay race, and this week Hosts James and Diaz welcome Very Special Guest Xavier back onto the show so that the three of them can discuss some Guys Who Were The Weak Link On Relay Teams.

    We dive in first with Diaz who revisits a a different part of a golden performance from our past (17:08); followed by Xavier, who takes his shot with as much cold precision as he can (40:52); and then James, who cycles through some past stars of Madison Square Garden (1:00:31). These Guys might have been dragged across the finish line before, but one of them will get themselves there this time once the Guy-bunal deliberates on this week's induction. (1:23:01)

  • RTG? 061: The King and Guy

    It may be far from election season; but this week when Hosts James and Diaz welcome back Very Special Guest Xavier, they'll be thinking about who can best support the party line as they discuss Running Mate Guys.

    First up, James gets things going by saying screw democracy, let's talk about a regal advisor with some Heated advice (23:01); followed by Xavier, who talks about some of the marketing failures regarding D&D (46:33); and finally Diaz brings us our second spiel on Iron Guys in as many weeks (1:02:08). These Guys stand alone on the ballot now, but which one of them will find themselves elected to the Hall? (1:28:42)

  • RTG? 060.2: For Your Consideration - Finger Licking Guys

    Watch out for pop flies cause the show is veering into fowl territory. Host James and Diaz bring back Very Special Guest Xavier to the show; and together, the three of them welcome Chief Poultry Correspondent Alexander Tominsky for this week's episode. (17:58)

    After first joining in one of the show's favorite customs and talking about the birds for a while, Alexander dives into the Guy that he has brought before the Guy-bunal this week: an Iron Man with more of an attachment to pigeons than orioles (34:52). The Guy-bunal is certainly intrigued (52:54), but will this Guy be able to punch a ticket? (56:07)

  • RTG? 060.1: Who Wants To Be A Guy-llionaire: 3 For The Money

    It's time for another round of trivial Trivia with our 3rd installment of the gameshow about the show where we mine our memories for nuggets of nostalgia about peripheral players past and present: Who Wants to Be A Guy-llionaire?

    This time, Hosts James and Diaz welcome not only Very Special Guest Xavier, but a slate of new contestants for the show in Richard-Francis-Burton-Reincarnate Brooks Rudy, returning Super Mega Guest Dante Lammendola, and Longtime Listener Now Third Time Caller Kevin McFall (15:52). The contestants this time will be put through the ringer with categories like Head to Head Hardware (18:43); College Championships (27:43); Taking A Charge (38:21); We're Going Streaking (45:09); and of course, 69 or 420 (1:02:58); before all culminating with the Final-Not-Copyright-Infringing-Jeopardy Round to determine who will be the Guy-llionaire this time!

  • RTG? 060: Reliti-Guy-tion VI: The Undiscovered Country

    As we wind down another season, the Guy-bunal's Veterans Committee convenes once again as Hosts James and Diaz welcome Very Special Guest Xavier onto the show for a sixth edition of Reliti-Guy-tion.

    After some extended Memories being Made, the gang gets down to brass tacks with their new dirty half dozen: a Guy with a story that's just the ticket for induction (30:27); another who saw the landscape of their nascent sport and thought it needed something Moore (37:05); one who this time has better than a puncher's chance at induction (40:19); someone who proves that cheaters do in fact prosper a lot of the time (43:46); yet another oft injured Portland Trail Blazers big man (47:29); and finally, Bernie Madoff's biggest fan (52:04). And just like that, it's time to welcome this sextet into their new home here in the Hall of Guy. (58:56)

  • RTG? 059: Go Go Gadget Guy

    The show has been on a hot streak recently, so it's never been a better time for Hosts James and Diaz to bring back Very Special Guest Xavier to cool things off, as they discuss Guys With Historically Bad Streaks.

    Diaz gets things started, and tries to score some points by talking about a Guy who did anything but (17:17); then it's Xavier's Guy who may lose a lot and doesn't really know how to take it on the chin (45:36); and then James tries to bring it home more successfully than their Guy could for quite some time (58:27). It's such a tough decision that the trio nearly turns to AI, but in the end they do land on an induction this week into the Hall of Guy. (1:23:36)

  • RTG? 058: Close Only Counts...

    It's time to break out the grills and coolers because this week, Hosts James and Diaz welcome to the show Very Special Guest Xavier so that he can convene the Guy-bunal to discuss some Lawn Game Guys.

    First, a call-in from Friend of the Show and Chief Despondent Correspondent Rego doling out some schadenfreude from Boston in spirit if not body (2:00). Then it's finally back to regular programming, with some Memories being Made (14:13) before the aforementioned Lawn Guys can be presented. Xavier starts with a Guy he figures is a shoe in (33:26); but James can counter with a Guy even cornier than that (44:44); not to mention Diaz's Guy, who would never wiff on an opportunity to make the Hall (1:05:44). But, as we know all too well by now, only one of these Guys will (1:28:47).

  • RTG? 057.1: For Your Consideration - Lew Ford Kia

    With one of the illustrious trio once again out of the country, Hosts James and Very Special Guest Xavier find themselves pleased to welcome back friend of the show and Local Baltimore Man Connor Newcomb from the Locked On Orioles podcast.

    After James and Xavier take some time to introduce Connor and his ornithological expertise (15:11), he presents to the partial Guy-bunal a particularly choice make and model of Guy that they can safely say is one of the foremost Designated Hitting Coaches of our era (23:24). But will this tale of a Guy and his avian legacy be granted entry into the Hall? (47:18)

    Be sure to check out Connor on the Locked On Orioles podcast, as well as on the show's Twitter and his own
