Remember That Guy?

No need to go far from your own doorstep for this week's episode, because Hosts James and Diaz are once again welcoming Very Special Guest Xavier with a category of his selection: Hometown Hero Guys.

Xavier begins his category by talking about a soccer player who's hometown helped give him wings (10:55); Diaz takes a shot at getting the crew absolutely jumping with excitement (35:50); and James prompts a debate on the value of loyalty to one's place of employment (1:03:46). Then it's time for an Induction discussion that starts off with an incendiary remark! (1:26:13)

Folks, they said it couldn't be done, but Hosts James and Diaz managed to secure a huge appearance from Very Special Guest, all in the pursuit of another new episode this week. The topic today: Guys In The Wrong Place At The Wrong Time.

James leads the way as they tell us about a historic Harrier and student of the Sillitoe Ways (11:29); Xavier brings to the group a story of the destruction of a French skyscraper (36:23); and Diaz shares with us his favorite social media friend turned reality TV star turned Twitch streamer...and oh yeah, there was a sports career somewhere in there (56:02).

Renaissance Guy: (noun)

1. A person with many talents or areas of knowledge.
2. The subject of this week's episode, as Hosts James and Diaz are joined by Very Special Guest Xavier to discuss his chosen choice of topic today, Multi-Sport Guys.

Xavier once again gets the ball rolling by teaching us about why North Dakota is the reason that Barry Bonds doesn't have a World Series ring (14:33); followed by Diaz with the Oakland Athletics first attempt at the world's best base-stealer (39:07); and finished off with James, who loosens their girdle and lets it fly with a South Texas State Fair Champion seamstress (1:04:40). This phenomenal trio of Guys can only mean one thing: one of our most contentions Hall of Guy deliberations to date! (1:21:22)

Mom, Hosts James and Diaz along with Very Special Guest Xavier won't stop picking on me! It must be because this week they're discussing Guys Living In Other Family Members' Shadows.

Xavier introduces the topic and brings us a Guy who can only be call underhanded when he's at the line (12:20); before James follows it up with a grammar lesson (35:14) and a quick aside on a foul mouth photo (51:46); all leading to Diaz bringing us home with a discussion of Nick Porrazzo's only film credit (53:24). But which of these forgotten familial figures will find their into the Hall of Guy (1:17:08).

College is supposed to be the best four years of your life; and so today, Hosts James and Diaz welcome Very Special Guest Xavier so that the three of them can relive some glory days by talking about Guys Who Peaked In College.

Diaz begins this week's episodes by telling us about a Guy whose career couldn't have ended any Sooner-er (16:14); Xavier educates us on a lesser known story and its Maine character (37:52); and James talks about the highly drafted Portland center with terrible leg problems...I guess they'll have to be a little more specific with that (1:05:10). Then the question is which of the three will be able to survive the daunting gauntlet of the induction discussion process (1:26:59).

It must be breakfast time, because Hosts James and Diaz along with Very Special Guest Xavier are here to talk about cups of coffee as they dive deep into this week's topic: Guys With Incredibly Short Careers.

James gets things going with a story about a Guy with a post-playing career that has a nice ring to it (14:52); Xavier journeys across two time periods AND the pond to paint his portion red (37:16); and finally, Diaz discusses everyone's favorite player from the 2007 NBA Draft (58:20). Then there's just time left for discussion - can James manage to win their third episode in a row? (1:20:21)

Like Dave Roberts pulling a starter after seven perfect innings, we're back at it again this week! With resumption of regular inductions underway, James gathers Diaz and Very Special Guest Xavier to discuss Peripheral Guys From Episodes Past.

James takes the leadoff spot today as they spitball about spoiling perfection (15:17); Diaz continues to reject advanced analytics in favor of Concrete facts (37:55); and Xavier takes Point while taking us on a trip to Barcelona that only briefly involves an AK-47 (58:59). But who will be the first in this brand new round of episodes to enter the Hall of Guy (1:23:49)?

In the homestretch prior to the playoffs, Diaz is a "DNP - Coach's Decision", so Host James and Very Special Guest Xavier welcome Giga-Guest Jake Galli of BetQL and the Straight Facts podcast. And wouldn't you know it, Jake brought a Guy for us to consider in another edition of For Your Consideration.

This time, Jake reveals his choice in the special category of Guys With Years of Lebron James Postseason Pains and makes his pitch for a rabid defender (19:52). With only two members of the Committee to deliberate (32:24), will this Guy get the necessary unanimous vote for induction into the Hall? (44:45)

Baseball is right around the corner, and the sounds of it are everywhere. The crack of the bat. The roar of the crowd. The blare of the firetruck sirens as your ace pitcher gets distracted.

Hosts James and Diaz, along with Very Special Guest Xavier, promise that the last one there will make sense when they welcome Super Mega Guest Dante Lammendola to discuss perhaps the first sports celebrity (21:02). But, upon further examination, will his outlandish exploits be enough for the Hall of Guy's committee's considerations for induction (48:15)?

In our first week of this round of alternative programming, Hosts James and Diaz welcome Very Special Guest Xavier back; but then all three are surprised the appearance of Mr. Medicinal, their resident renowned wrestling resource. He's here to chew gum and talk about some Wrestling Guys, and he's all out of gum.

After all four share some of the folks Making Memories for them now, Mr. Medicinal steps into the ring in the first ever For Your Consideration submission to the Hall of Guy (22:53). After cross chops, er, cross examination by our committee (34:14), the judges render their final verdict on a group that courted controversy with their in-ring redactions (44:21).
