On My Knees | feat. Madonna, Jeff Buckley, Collective Soul + more

4/8/2026
Episode 066: Easter has come and gone, leaving nothing but half-eaten chocolate bunnies and some lingering questions about the Great Beyond. In this episode, Geoff, Russ, and Dave dive into the world of Faith—but don’t worry, they aren't passing a collection plate. Whether it’s a search for meaning or just a really catchy chorus about a higher power, the guys navigate the fine line between the divine and the distorted. While nibbling on leftover candy, the trio breaks down a tracklist that spans the jangly heights of The Byrds, the fuzzy intensity of The Thermals, and the ethereal beauty of Jeff Buckley, alongside 90s anthems from Collective Soul, pop provocations by Madonna, and a healthy dose of punk-rock skepticism from NOFX. It’s a Sunday morning session that feels much more like a Saturday night at the pub. Apple Podcasts Instagram Spotify Playlist Official Site

Hangovers | feat. The Who, ZZ Top, Otis Redding + more

3/25/2026
Episode 065: The morning-after haze has officially settled over Six Picks Music Club, and we are definitely feeling the weight of last night’s decisions. We’re attempting to hair-of-the-dog our way back to consciousness, starting with a loud, caffeinated jolt from Me First and the Gimme Gimmes to shake off the brain fog. Once the initial tremors subside, we’re reaching for the dark-shades cool of ZZ Top and letting the smooth, soul-soothing medicine of Otis Redding coat our frayed nerves like a greasy diner breakfast. To keep the nausea at bay, we’ve got a pint of Jaya The Cat for those reggae-punk electrolytes, followed by a massive, stadium-sized headache courtesy of The Who. We’re finally closing our eyes and leaning into the dreamy, fuzz-drenched lethargy of Dum Dum Girls until the room stops spinning. It’s a dry-mouthed, shaky-handed tribute to the regrets we’d probably repeat next weekend—just keep the volume low and the lights off. Apple Podcasts Instagram Spotify Playlist Official Site

Doin’ Drugs | feat. The Beatles, Amy Winehouse, Highly Suspect, 311 + more

3/11/2026
Episode 064: This week on Six Picks Music Club, we’re skipping the rehab and going straight for the stash with a setlist that’ll leave you absolutely cooked. We’re kicking things off with a gateway hit from The Uninvited before the mood gets thick and smoky with a heavy dose of Amy Winehouse. To keep the heart rate from flatlining, we’re passing the 311 for those herbal, sun-drenched vibrations, then mainline some gritty, high-octane energy from Highly Suspect. Just as the walls start to melt, we’re micro-dosing a little psych-rock magic with The Beatles and finally crashing out into the beautifully jagged, pill-pressed blues of Placebo. It’s a pure, uncut trip through our favorite musical dependencies—guaranteed to give you a contact high without the comedown. Apple Podcasts Instagram Spotify Playlist Official Site

Favorites Songs of 2025 | feat. Wet Leg, Laura Jane Grace, Die Spitz + more

2/25/2026
Episode 063: Look, we know it’s already 2026. But at Six Picks, we’ve never been much for those rushed December rankings, so we’re sticking to the tradition of letting the music actually breathe before we judge it. Join Geoff, Russ, and Dave as they look back at the 2025 tracks that haven’t left their heads yet, featuring a deep dive into the raw energy of Die Spitz, the bizarro folk-metal collision of AVVT PTTN, and the ever-reliable Laura Jane Grace. The conversation also meanders through the recent output of Big Thief, Wet Leg, and Nerdlinger, before the guys shift gears to figure out exactly what is going on with a strange new breed of veterinarian working up in Canada. This is the definitive 2025 post-mortem you didn't know you needed, delivered with the usual chaos and a blatant disregard for the calendar. Apple Podcasts Instagram Spotify Playlist Official Site

2/11/2026
Episode 062: We’re kicking off Season Three with a "triple-shot" treat that’s bound to leave you satisfied! This week, the guys are exploring the tightest chemistry in music by diving deep into ménage à trois anthems and the hardest-working three-piece bands in the business. We’re digging into the sheets of the tracklist to see who’s really getting down together, featuring enough members to keep everyone happy from Unknown Mortal Orchestra, Joyce Manor, Rick James, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Beck, and The Lonely Island. Between the climaxes, the guys take a heavy detour into the "Objectivist" bedroom to look into the unpublished books of Ayn Rand, proving that the Fountainhead isn’t the only thing getting a rise out of us this week. Grab a partner (or two) and dig in—it’s a season opener you won't want to finish alone. Apple Podcasts Instagram Spotify Playlist Official Site Listener Listens - People Museum - Instagram

Americana | feat. Tyler Childers, Steve Earle, The Highwomen, Steve Earle + more

11/19/2025
Episode 056: "What in the Wide World of Sports is Americana?" Join Geoff, Russ, and Dave for a special episode of the Six Picks Music Club as they welcome a guest Jeff to the conversation about the most deliciously undefinable of genres. Americana is like that perfect roadside diner: you know the vibe when you walk in, even if you can't quite articulate the decor. It has the twang of classic country, the soul of folk music, and a lyrical sincerity that just feels like home, even if "home" means a broken-down Ford pickup on a backroad somewhere. The guys attempt to pin down this elusive sound by spinning a killer playlist that jumps from the legendary Texas troubadour Willis Alan Ramsey to the raw, hard-edged storytelling of Tyler Childers. They also dive into the powerhouse harmonies of The Highwomen, look at a possible evolution of the genre from Halsey, and explore the enduring grit of Steve Earle and the lush, layered folk of Fleet Foxes. But be warned: the conversation takes a hard left turn, veering off the musical highway to tackle the pressing matter of escaped cats and, well, prolapsed anuses. It’s a true Americana experience—unpredictable, a little messy, and entirely heartfelt. Tune in for the music, stay for the feline emergency room stories!

Geoff, Russ, and Dave are joined by special guest Steve to explore the tracks that transport us back to simpler times—from the Kingston Trio's rebellious folk to Jesus Jones' wall-crumbling optimism, Marty Robbins' epic tale of Rosa's Cantina to Pkew Pkew Pkew's bittersweet glory days, Allen Tousaint's sultry southern nights to Rehab's beer-soaked anticipation. And because no trip down memory lane is complete without an oddball detour, the guys somehow end up discussing the fascinating world of dietary fiber. Whether you're longing for yesterday or just enjoying the memories, this episode promises to hit you right in the feels while keeping one foot firmly planted in the ridiculous.

Get ready for a musical roast session where musicians settle scores harder than middle school drama club. Pavement's about to drag 90s alt rockers through the mud, Lynyrd Skynyrd's got beef with a Canadian rocker, Carly Simon's precision-targeting some seriously vain men, Mojo Nixon is taking potshots at an Eagle, The Sex Pistols are New York punk scene arsonists, and Insane Clown Posse delivers what might be the most gloriously terrible diss track in musical history. And because no episode of musical shade would be complete without a random tangent, the guys are gonna dive into the soul-crushing monotony of work - because nothing says "diss track" like complaining about your 9-to-5. So grab your headphones, prepare for musical murder, and join us as we talk trash with the most gloriously petty tracks ever recorded. Seriously, podcast listeners?

Are You Ready For Some Football? | feat. Queen, Joan Jett, Spencer Davis Group, AFI + more

9/24/2025
Episode 052: It’s almost fall, and that means football. In this episode, Geoff, Russ, and Dave dig into the pigskin with six songs that hit like a linebacker and dance like a wide receiver in the end zone. They blend beats with blitzes with a full lineup including Queen, whose stadium-sized swagger sets the tone for a season of high drama and big plays. The Spencer Davis Group brings the fun from the stands, all pep and groove, while Atom and His Package throws a prophetic flag on the field with a sharp critique of the sport’s darker undercurrents. The guys go deep into the world of professional theme songs with the Ying Yang Twins, whose track feels tailor-made for a rowdy dome crowd, and Joan Jett, whose anthem screams prime-time energy. Then AFI takes it further, peeling back the layers of football’s cultural weight with a sarcastic and snotty look. Somewhere between the touchdowns and the tackles, they also learn about clotted cream and its mysterious unclotting powers. Come early, be loud, and stay late through this wild ride of music and football, with just enough chaos to make it feel like overtime.
