Remember That Guy?

Written by: James Diaz and Xavier
Listen for free

  • Summary

  • 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? 118: Ball Don't Guy
    Jan 27 2025

    Like the great orator Yogi Berra once said, "the future ain't what it used to be", so today the Guy-bunal will look backwards for some other wise words instead as Hosts James and Diaz team up with Very Special Guest Xavier gather to discuss Guys You Don't Remember With Quotes You Do Remember.

    Xavier gets us up and running with a Guy as good as gold many times over (14:21); James brings to the table a noted anti-imperialist from the baseball world (36:00); Diaz talks about how for some Guys, ball is not just life, but truth as well (58:53). Their quotes may have outlived their careers, but one of them will get an even more lasting legacy with induction into the Hall of Guy! (1:41:21)

    RTG? 117: A Guy For All Seasons
    Jan 20 2025

    The flames that burn the Guy-est burn the fastest, and so this week when Hosts James and Diaz reconvene the Guy-bunal along with Very Special Guest Xavier, the three of them will discuss just that: Only One Top Flight Season Guys.

    Diaz brings a story from across the pond that goes beyond the pale (21:21); Xavier (46:57); and James presents history's only ever Detroit Liger (1:31:45). They may have each managed to get their one top seasons, but only one will spend the rest of their seasons enshrined in the Hall of Guy. (1:32:51)

    RTG? 116: Don't Know What You Guy, Till It's Gone
    Jan 13 2025

    Verdigris. Lime. Kelly. Neon. Emerald. Mean Joe. There are many shades of green in the world, and they're the focus this week for Hosts James and Diaz as they bring back Very Special Guest Xavier to discuss Guys For Whom The Grass Was Not Greener.

    James clears the airspace about a story regarding baseball buyer's remorse (24:46); Diaz logs an entry about Guy who looked for a shade of green besides midnight (44:55); and Xavier gives us the long-awaited third volume of the Kill Bill saga (1:15:33). The grass these Guys sought might not have turned out to be greener, but maybe maroon and orange will better suit whoever can get to the other side of the Hall of Guy. (1:41:36)
