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).

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 (); but with still two Guy-bunal members to win over, will it be enough to punch a ticket into the Hall of Guy? ()

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)

It's one better than ten, or at least that's what Hosts James and Diaz along with Very Special Guest Xavier are banking on as the Guy-bunal convenes for the 11th edition of Reliti-Guy-tion.

Some of the Guys considered include a known thief (15:13); an Argentine Owl (22:23); yet another Argentinian (26:04); a true Giant (29:10); a Phishy muse (32:50); and a Hurricane (37:47). They may have come up short on their first go round, but unless there are any objections, they should have no trouble this time finding their way into the Hall of Guy. (39:29)

It's not the longest episode, and it certainly doesn't have the most guests, but it is the biggest episode of RTG? yet as Hosts James and Diaz welcome Very Special Guest Xavier on the show so the three of them can take some time to discuss Big Guys.

Diaz is first up and brings in a real Giant struggling with their size (10:55); James stands tall with a typecast titan at tending goal (37:32); and Xavier gets a little sexy with it... well, not exactly little (57:02). They'll need to carve out a bigger spot in Hall of Guy, but who will be the one to fill it? (1:33:52)

This week, one dimensional isn't just something defined as a mathematical space in which location can be specified with a single coordinate; it's also a descriptor for the skillsets at the heart of this week's discussion between Hosts James and Diaz welcome back Very Special Guest Xavier as the Guy-bunal debates Guys Who Were Only Good At One Thing.

James begins the proceedings with a show-stealing Guy who's been running through their mind (21:13); Diaz gets the ball second and makes a passionate plea for an all-time glass polisher (42:19); Xavier takes a shot from way outside with a setpiece specialist (1:08:19). No need to have a diverse application this time - as long as just their one skill is good enough, just one Guy will make their way into the Hall. (1:26:48)

There'll be no discussion of revolutions or coups bloody or otherwise this week - instead, Hosts James and Diaz along with Very Special Guest Xavier will convene as the Guy-bunal to discuss Dynasty Buster Guys.

Xavier is the first to serve up and hold court on a challenger who bested a Big Three (19:45); James chronicles a life of ball and brotherly lover (47:50); and Diaz manages to find a bicoastal bum who battered the Bronx bombers (1:14:52). These three won't be up against any dynasties this time, but they will square off against one another to see which gains entry into the Hall of Guy. (1:40:07)
