The New York Football Giants won a game! Rejoicing is in order. Zach and Willys discuss the adjustments made to get Big Blue's offense moving, the offensive line passable, and Eli back on track. They also revel in the suddenly excellent play of Kerry Wynn, the sustained excellence of Odell Beckham, and the defense's competitiveness through three games.
As usual, they take a look around the league, focusing on the increasingly controversial roughing the passer penalties against Clay Matthews and Green Bay.
The episode wraps up with a preview of Week 4's game back home against the New Orleans Saints, and the classic signoff we know you expect.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.

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.
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!
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.
