Remember That Guy?

Auteur(s): James Diaz and Xavier
  • Résumé

  • The show where we mine our memories for nuggets of nostalgia about peripheral players past and present.

    Every week, Hosts James and Diaz along with Very Special Guest Xavier do what sports fans love to do best: sit around and remember some Guys.

    But just what is a Guy? To paraphrase Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart "I shall not today attempt further to define the kinds of [players] I understand to be embraced within that shorthand description [...] But I know it when I see it".

    Whether it's a perennial postseason over-performer, a hometown hero who only appears that way through rose colored glasses, or just a really great story that has to be shared - Guys of every shape, size, sport, and gender are welcome in the storied halls of our memories.

  • RTG? 110.3: The Guy-ball Test
    Nov 25 2024

    With the Host Diaz scattered to the winds for a week, Host James and Very Special Guest Xavier decide to take their Guy-bunal rubrics that have taken form over the past few years and apply them to a new pool of candidates, players eligible this year for induction into a different venerable institution - the Baseball Hall of Fame.

    After explaining their premise (12:24), James and Xavier make their ballot for Guys that may not make it to Cooperstown but just might someday find their way to the nebulous geographic location of the Hall of Guy, including: a Tiger who changed his pinstripes (18:40), baseball's premier speed-runner (22:27), the man that crowned the Monarchs (27:35), the world's most crooked ballcap (32:53), Diaz's least phavorite Philly (35:12), an erstwhile Israeli (39:03), a Guy looking for elbow room (43:55), a misprinted prince of Denmark (46:20), un receveur québécois (50:28), and Baltimore's premier pie aficionado (55:11).

  • RTG? 110.2: For Your Consideration - Big Girls Don't Guy
    Nov 18 2024

    With the Guy-bunal temporarily fractured, Host Diaz and Very Special Guest Xavier welcome back friend of the show and Graphics Extraordinaire Mike Canter for another Guy presentation.

    Canter's pint sized superhuman from the largest subcontinent certainly has a puncher's chance (16:36); but with still two Guy-bunal members to win over, will it be enough to punch a ticket into the Hall of Guy? (37:47)

  • RTG? 110.1: For Your Consideration - If The Guy Fits
    Nov 11 2024

    The show is on the other foot as this week Hosts James and Diaz welcome not just Very Special Guest Xavier but also Guest At Large and author of A History of Basketball in Fifteen Sneakers Russ Bengtson.

    After the Guy-bunal gets to hear Russ speak from his sole on his areas of expertise as an introduction (22:20), it's time to hear about the pair of basketball goons that are the Guys for consideration this week (49:21). They may have both crossed the ocean for the NBA, but only one will cross the threshold into the Hall of Guy. (1:12:08)

    Follow Russ on bluesky and check out A History of Basketball in Fifteen Sneakers!
