An Inconvenient Blueth: New York Giants Podcast

Join two friends from either side of the country as they discuss the ups and many downs of the New York Giants and professional football. In the world's most irreverent podcast about Big Blue, Zach Perry and Willys DeVoll talk about the G-Men with candor, humor, and complete lack of professional media access. Each week, we break down the game and news from the Meadowlands and around the NFL. Long Live OBJ, and remember 2008.

We're back! 09/26/2022

We're back! Zach and Willys make a triumphant return to the traditional art of podcasting after a hiatus of nearly 7 months. With two games of the Giants' 2022 season down and not a loss to be seen, the Bluethers discuss how real this nascent renaissance is, and what we might expect in the next few games. /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/24495678

This is straight-up maybe-fact! 03/01/2022

This is straight-up maybe-fact! This episode was recorded on February 16, 2022. With news about the fresh coaching staff quieting down and draft talk not quite heating up just yet, the Bluethers recap what's been happening in Giantsland. /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/22292891

Stuff you would not believe! 02/03/2022

Stuff you would not believe! The Giants are up to much more than they were while ostensibly "competing" in "football games," and the Bluethers are here to cover it all. They talk over the Brian Daboll pick, how Joe Schoen is building the Giants by sacking the Bills, and how we can assess the hiring of two men who've never done their new jobs before. Of course, they also discuss the official retirement of An Inconvenient Blueth's patron saint: Thomas Edward Patrick Brady Jr., who we fully expect to legally become #TB12nft any day now. Zach and Willys wrap up by offering initial reactions to the Brian Flores lawsuit and its allegations, and a bit on Jim Harbaugh's strange flirtation with the Minnesota Vikings. /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/22014497

All that jazz! 01/28/2022

All that jazz! The Giants hired a new general manager: Joe Schoen. The Bluethers prudently let the dust settle and those other Giants podcasts cover the breaking news. They pod before you today as men of reflection, ready and willing to opine on the news with poise and perspective. Other topics include George Washington, whatever happened to Aaron Rodgers, when to go to sleep, and a variety of the kinds of tangents you've grown to know and quasi-love from this beautiful production known as An Inconvenient Blueth. /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/21929180

It's a trifecta of stages! 01/12/2022

It's a trifecta of stages! The Giants' season has mercifully ended, and so too have the reigns of David Gettleman and Joe Judge. With a new dawn finally arriving over the unthinkably bland facade of Corporate Insurance Stadium, Zach and Willys return to the show to break down the end of Big Blue's year, Gettleman's legacy, and the pleasant surprise that John Mara has put the new general manager on the same track as the head coach he'll hire. /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/21755996

Bring in Lou Lawyer! 12/09/2021

Bring in Lou Lawyer! After a week on the injured list, Zach and Willys are back to talk about what seems like a new rock bottom for the Giants. Obviously, the conversation begins with an exploration of the origin of the phrase "rock bottom," which yields little of interest, and goes on to more big-picture talk about this team and its future. What else is new? With a game against the Chargers in LA coming up, the Bluethers also discuss the dire QB situation, from who's playing to the status of Big Blue's quarterbacks coach. It's rough out there, people. Stay safe, and try not to pay too much attention to the Giants. /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/21435710

Time for a sholo stick! 11/25/2021

Time for a sholo stick! With the Thanksgiving holiday upon us and the Bluethers in transit, they put together a very special Double-Solo Episode. Needless to say, they cover the rock-bottom loss to Tampa and Podcast God Thomas Edward Patrick Brady Jr., as well as the breaking news that Jason Garrett has been fired as offensive coordinator. What a game. What a week. What a season. What a time to be alive. courtesy of Tuben on Freesound /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/21280604

It's the ad nauseam episode! 11/17/2021

It's the ad nauseam episode! Did the Giants win the bye week? Who knows? Zach and Willys try to get to the bottom of one of the great questions of our time by creating a pro-con ledger, using the purchaser's method, and discussing Odell's new start with the Rams. They also get into Cam's return to Carolina, the Vikings (in general, in logo, and in architecture), what "art deco" means, and the origin of the phrase ad nauseam. /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/21199835

I'm a proud fair-weather fan! 11/12/2021

I'm a proud fair-weather fan! The Giants beat the Raiders and now get to enjoy a week without having to play football. With the G-Men's season (basically) half over and Big Blue setting a blistering 5- or 6-win pace, the Bluethers discuss the team's defensive brilliance and continued stagnation on offense. Needless to say, they also discuss the Aaron Rodgers fiasco, Cam signing back with the Panthers, and—most importantly—OBJ agreeing to terms with the Rams. Other topics include masochistic sports fans and how to avoid consistently eating bad food. You can't afford to miss this! WIN THE BYE WEEK! /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/21147971

I love SUNY Oswego! 11/06/2021

I love SUNY Oswego! The Bluethers break down a trademark loss to Kansas City on Monday Night Football, which featured an impressive defensive performance and an unsurprisingly inept offense by Big Blue. They discuss the Giants' endemic problems, the lack of strategic creativity, and whatever hope remains for changing things. Zach and Willys cover a few other stories, and wrap up with a look ahead to the upcoming game at home against the Raiders. /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/21073046

The man loves his fires! 10/28/2021

The man loves his fires! After a rare win for Big Blue—one that Zach watched in person at Corporate Insurance Stadium—the Bluethers talk about how the victory changes the outlook for the rest of the season. They also take a look at standings around the league, and what would have to happen for the Cowboys to not win the NFC East. To close out the show, Zach and Willys discuss how Kansas City's struggles might have changed the Giants' chances against the once (and maybe not future?) juggernaut on Monday night. As always, tangents abound. /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/20971304

Pretend that player doesn't exist! 10/16/2021

Pretend that player doesn't exist! The Bluethers recap a surprisingly triumphant win for the Giants in New Orleans and an unsurprisingly terrible loss in the general vicinity of Dallas. They also get to the biggest news around the league this week: the downfall of AIB podcast legend Jon Gruden. To wrap it all up, they take a look ahead to this weekend's game against a clearly better Los Angeles Rams. /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/20836328

Every other team can do it! 10/02/2021

Every other team can do it! In an episode that was salvaged from the depths of the ocean/hacked by the four computer geniuses that work for Dave at Corporate Insurance Stadium, Zach and Willys break down the demoralizing loss to Atlanta and look ahead to the new, very downgraded outlook for the rest of the Giants' season. Of course, they also take another look at the ongoing employment prospects for the coaching staff and front office, and preview Week 4's challenge in New Orleans against the resurgent Saints. /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/20682794

It's their specialty! 09/24/2021

It's their specialty! Zach's back on the pod to discuss the bizarre and humiliating loss to the Football Players of the Nation's Capital, a ridiculous run of Giants penalties, and what might be salvaged of yet another season that's started with two straight losses. The Bluethers also take a look at the upcoming game in Corporate Insurance Stadium against Atlanta, and how far the Giants' season could fall with another loss on Sunday. /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/20592305

I don't know how long I can soliloquize! 09/16/2021

I don't know how long I can soliloquize! Willys takes to the mic for the first-ever solo episode of An Inconvenient Blueth. After a real downer of a season opener and with a primetime matchup with Washington looming, he breaks down what we should take from Week 1, what the heck is going on with the Giants' offense, and how much of a chance Big Blue stands against the unnamed football team's ferocious defense. /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/20501726

I've known him my whole life! 08/21/2021

I've known him my whole life! It's the Season 5 Premiere! The Bluethers talk training camp transactions, losing to the Jets in the first preseason game, and a throwback to Super Bowls past. They also break down how Big Blue's depth chart is looking at this point in camp, and what might go down between now and the start of real football games. /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/20216903

It's an ironic oxymoron! 06/17/2021

It's an ironic oxymoron! Zach and Willys return during the slowest period of NFL news to look back on the Giants' draft and the shockingly forward-thinking trade the Big Blue made in the first round. They also take a game-by-game look at the Giants' 2021 schedule. /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/19508132

It's a skinny draft! 04/26/2021

It's a skinny draft! Zach and Willys do one final draft preview before the big event starts on Thursday. After substantial upgrades to the pod, they go through another mock draft—this time with actual research at their disposal. They also pour one out for Wayne Gallman, a Giants who should and would have been great, had someone let him. /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/18859586

Talking about them is extremely difficult! 04/15/2021

Talking about them is extremely difficult! Zach and Willys make their triumphant spring return to the mics to hammer out their annual simulated mock draft on behalf of the Giants. Follow their picks round by round for a taste of what we expect Big Blue to do at the end of the month. /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/18731276

I hope these aren't in my cart! 02/07/2021

I hope these aren't in my cart! Zach and Willys welcome special guest Ethan Rothstein back to the show to shoot the breeze about the Super Bowl, the Presidential Medal of Freedom, and obscene salaries for baseball players who might not be that good at baseball. Expect very little information from this episode. /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/17851028

We're still working on the tagline! 01/25/2021

We're still working on the tagline! With only the best teams in football still alive, the Bluethers catch up on the last few weeks of news from the Meadowlands and around the NFL. They take a look at the end of the Giants' season, views on the Eagles' forfeit and Doug Pederson's firing, and the most important holes for Big Blue to fill in the offseason. /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/17671691

Abraham Lincoln isn't coming back from the dead! 12/25/2020

Abraham Lincoln isn't coming back from the dead! Just in time for Christmas, the Bluethers discuss the latest downturn in Big Blue's performance, the injury to Daniel Jones, and whatever hope remains for a Giants playoff appearance this season. /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/17324822

He's an angry individual! 11/26/2020

He's an angry individual! After a crucial hiatus to invest in the Blueth Exploratory Committee, Zach and Willys return for an unprecedented septuple episode. They cover the Giants' miraculous playoff chances, the various controversies around Joe Judge's coaching staff, and how Big Blue has managed to become the best team in the NFC East despite playing like a thoroughly mediocre outfit. /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/16962524

We don't need any deeper! 10/07/2020

We don't need any deeper! Well, the Giants lost again and the nation has entered one of its stranger periods... ever? But what's not strange is Big Blue's offense looking inert and uninspired, so let's take an hour to chat about that and keep our minds off of actual problems. /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/16303628

Too little too early! 09/28/2020

Too little too early! The Giants played one of their worst games in memory, and got trounced by another club's second string. (Let's call them the 28ers.) These are dark days for Big Blue indeed, and the Bluethers are here to break it down. Moving on fairly quickly from a game that left little to talk about, they discuss how Sunday's embarrassment could hasten the departure of Dave Gettleman, Joe Judge's status three games into his head coaching tenure, and what a smart front office would choose to do from here on out. /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/16188335

How do we segue out of this? 09/23/2020

How do we segue out of this? One more loss for the record, and many more for the soul. Saquon is done for the year, Danny Dimes is back to his fumbling ways, and a very unconvincing Bears team left the Giants sitting at 0-2 for the one-millionth time in the last one million seasons. The Bluethers discuss what happened in Chicago on Sunday, how the Big Blue defense has actually been a pleasant surprise so far in 2020, and how Joe Judge might generate any kind of offense for the next 14 games. /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/16123109

We're gonna work on the tagline! 09/15/2020

We're gonna work on the tagline! Somehow professional football has happened, which gives the Bluethers something to talk about that's at least nominally related to the playing of professional football games. After an expected loss at home to the Pittsburgh Steelers, Zach and Willys discuss Iron Curtain's stifling of Saquon in the running game, the stellar play of Darius Slayton as a rising WR1, and why Jason Garrett appeared so many times on the broadcast. Week 1 is in the books. Welcome back, however rudely, to Giants football. /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/16014518

Get a kicker you Gano! 08/25/2020

Get a kicker you Gano! Deep into the dog days of summer, the Bluethers jump on to talk about the unorthodox beginning of training camp, the Giants' kicking situation, and what we think we've learned about DeAndre Baker's legal case. And, of course... plenty of other clearly impertinent topics, straight from Lockdown Studios East of East and West. /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/15743687

This isn't a mailbag! 07/16/2020

This isn't a mailbag! Keeping alive the recent trend of Giants banality, Big Blue has been interesting in the last few weeks only to the extent that they’re tangentially related to the actual news of the day. Right now, said news is Cam Newton’s signing with the Pats and the (football) disgrace in D.C. deciding to change its name. The Bluethers break down those two big stories, plus discuss the latest on DeAndre Baker’s criminal case and the case for extending Saquon’s contract. We’re back, even though the NFL won’t be. /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/15231161

What about the FlinkedIn‽ 05/16/2020

What about the FlinkedIn‽ With the hypothetical, probably-not-happening 2020 schedule now ripe for pointless discussion and analysis, Zach and Willys jump on the mics to discuss the Giants' outlook, the mess of Corporate Insurance Stadium's parking situation, why you might want a burner LinkedIn, and when a gardener becomes a farmer. /episode/index/show/inconvenientblueth/id/14441663
