Episode 19: “One Less Double-Double”

Line-ups and tigers and burgers, oh my! Chad, Willie, and Ben talk counting calories, notable birthdays, FanFest, Posey and the catcher situation, and of course, Timmy’s dietary habits!

Plus: Chad still hates Eli Manning, Johnny Velvet has a birthday (someone warn the post-game reporter), and Ben completely loses it explaining why we will win it all.

Don’t forget to check out our AWESOME new intro! Thanks to Ashkon (@ashkonmusic) and Bailey (@baileymuzik) for letting us use their awesome collab track “Feelin’ Like A Giant”.  It’s an all-new TortureCast, just in time for an all-new season of Your San Francisco Giants!

Episode 18: “Fried Plantains and Ketchup”

Three consecutive episodes means we have a streak going, folks!  Willie, Ben, and Chad get together to talk Brandon Belt’s talent, psychological properties, and food preferences, as well as talking new Giants Clay Hensley and Ryan Theriot.  We talk Cody Ross’s new contract, Lincecum’s extension, and Prince Fielder.

During our customary ending segments, Willie loves the Red Sox, Ben says hats will make us win, and Chad hates on a Giant.  What?!  Take a trip into Bizarro World with this week’s TortureCast!

Episode 17: “Beastmode Yoga Rain Dance”

The boys are back with a new face (or voice): Willie and Ben are joined by Chad King, regular contributor and now podcast regular.  We talk Niners, because everyone is, complete with sadness, reflection, sympathy, and maybe a little distaste.

Once we get through that, we talk contracts, arbitration, Lincecum, Brandon Crawford, yoga, the Rockies, and turn our attention back to baseball season.  Pitchers and catchers report in 28 days, after all!

Episode 16: “Jeter’s Girlfriends”

The boys are back!  Willie Dills and Ben Lee get together after a two-month hiatus to celebrate the 49ers’ win over the Saints and the continued dominance of Alex Smith.

More importantly, we take a long, hard look at the trades for Melky Cabrera and Angel Pagan, look at the signings and departures of the Giants’ offseason, talk about Huff’s Pilates regimen, and look ahead to the 2012 San Francisco Giants.

Episode 15: “When Is Baseball Back?”

In the absence of Willie Dills, Mike and Ben face the twin horrors of Halloween and the Baseball Offseason with strength and courage, discussing the latest news, Javier Lopez and Jeremy Affeldt’s re-signings, the Giants’ departing free agents, and get a little distracted.  Multiple times.

Also, Ashkon supports Ed Lee’s bid for mayor, and Ben talks the latest in Giants news!

Episode 14: “If You Can’t Beat Em, Neukom”

As they come to grips with a strange, unfamiliar Giant-less postseason, Willie and Ben discuss the departure of Bill Neukom and new tenure of Larry Baer, consider which of the current crop of Giants the team will keep or drop, and look over the MLB Playoffs.

Also: a song from the folks at KNBR…and Johnny Velvet destroys his Dogpatch neighborhood!

After an unintentional hiatus, the guys finally make it back…to find that the Giants are finally out.  It’s time to look back on some memorable moments from the season and some notable performances turned in by our boys in orange and black — and don’t forget some views from Out of Left Field, thanks to Chad King!

Episode 12: “The Empire Strikes Back”

Willie Dills has stopped believing.  Can anything turn the Giants’ fortunes around?  After being beaten by the Diamondbacks in 2 of 3, the Gigantes are inches from elimination.  The guys weigh in on whether there’s anything to be salvaged from this season, and who they want to see play the rest of the way.  Also: Mike attends Star Wars Day, Ben finishes moving, Johnny Velvet doesn’t read ahead, Justin Upton needs to stop being good at things, and introducing…Cody Fett?

Episode 10: “Lineups of Seasons Past”

Battling depression and despair, Willie, Mike, and Ben reunite to talk about their favorite lineups of previous and current Giants. We discuss the end of this road trip (even though we don’t want to), pick some new favorite guys, fear for our pitching staff, and hone our trivia skills. Also, a game and a half. A game and a half!

Episode 9: “Epic Diapers in Left Field Are Hard”

With Ben and Mike both unavailable (and probably on the DL), Willie welcomes Chad King of Out of Left Field, Kids Are Hard, and Epic Diapers onto the show. We talk slumps, bumps, and bruises and our struggling team, and try to make the most of the midsummer Giants doldrums.
