It might have happened before last week's episode, but Hosts James and Diaz along with Very Special Guest Xavier would be remiss if they didn't talk about how the NBA Finals Made Memories for: a lover (02:26), a hater (05:53), a loser (10:16), and a winner (12:43).
Then, it's time to welcome KBO superfan Zac Petrillo (16:29) who catches the Guy-bunal up on Korean baseball before presenting one of its greatest Guys for consideration (38:55).

It's time to induct another season's worth of worthy candidates into the Hall of Guy, because there's definitely nothing else in the world of sports specific to this show that has recently been going on. That is, except for what's Making Memories: a brand new game called ".4% Or .More%" (02:18); and a double (09:14) cup check (11:33).
Then it's time for the class of Season 16, the Real American Noncontiguous Guys: a literal giant in the world of Puerto Rican basketball (19:44); the second best Virginal player in NBA history (24:56); a player from soccer and Hollywood pitches alike (32:05); a thin slice of meat in a superstar shortstop sandwich (36:46); and a name that must be said to be remembered (38:46).

Big Guys come in small packages sometimes, and the Guy-bunal will get to that right after going through what's Making Memories for them, including: talking about the NBA Finals by way of the cycling season (01:34); a contentious presidential election (07:39); a grand(e) American battle south of the border (15:26); and the brand new videogame genre called fantasy draft rogue-likes (26:38).
Then it's time for our final Real American Non-Contiguous Guy: a second nickel who squats and swats (34:16).

The Guy-bunal has officially declared for the draft, so hopefully no wars get started. In the meantime, they kick things off with what's Making Memories, including: some anni mirabiles (02:45); the final innings of the MAAC (12:27); and roided up competition that was ironically juice-less (26:03).
Then, it's time for another Real American Non-Contiguous Guy, and this time, Diaz is ready to spend the podcast talking about... the namesake of a different podcast. (36:23)

The Guy-bunal is heading up to the Great Guy North, and before they get there they've got time enough to Make some Memories about: a truly devastating fantasy loss (02:48); a now-long-gone pioneer (05:58); someone who knows how to get a basket (11:33); a Georgia Oil Change (13:25); and some very lax women (15:51).

No, they're not talking about suddent death, not even "it". What they are talking about are Memories Being Made that include: a comfy return to a phamillyar hatred (02:42); a seat that isn't hot enough (04:57); taking a break and laying down your gunners (12:22); and an award-winning mustang (15:53).

This episode exists in a quantum state - what the Guy-bunal is remembering doesn't exist until they remember it. At least I think that's how it works. Either way, they'll get to the Guy once they get through what's making memories for them: a heart-stopping bike race (02:23); an unfortunate case of shared names (10:31); a city philled to the brim with playoff teams (14:25); and some military talk with drafts, Jets, and Rangers (21:04).
Then, it's time for this week's Real American Guy ; the other early 2000s NBA player from the U.S. Virgin Islands. (24:51)

Then, it's time for this week's Real American Guy, who didn't even need a twister to whisk him away from home on a globetrotting hoops journey. (30:06)

The erstwhile trivia contest based on the show where we mine our memories for nuggets of nostalgia about peripheral players past and present is back with a new slate of competitors and a new slate of categories including:
Go Birds Or No Birds? (05:01); Guy'm My Own Grandpa (17:39); How Many Nickels? (36:16); and everyone's favorite returning category, 69 or 420? (50:31)

Don't worry folks, the Guy-bunal is going to wrap up season 15 in just a moment, but first they need to run through the things that are Making Memories for them, including: some Brits who know ball (02:01); all the Olympics (08:20); and some world record updates (26:48).

This week it's time to test the limit of what can count as a Guy. First, a diminished Guy-bunal Makes its way through some Memories including: reading recommendations for the Olympics (01:33); a Hater's (Soccer) Ball (03:55); some testy testicular situations in cricket (06:08); and another brand new game from RTG? entitled "Who's Zoos Choose?" (08:46)
