Episode 036: War. What is it good for? According to this episode - some pretty powerful music. Join Geoff, Russ, and Dave as they explore the darker side of conflict through an explosive mix of songs that tackle everything from military recruitment and terrorism to devastation and the manipulation of young soldiers. From The Clash's historical perspective to Warren Zevon's mercenary tales, The Cranberries' protest anthem to Rise Against's gut-wrenching veteran story, and from Primus's military satire to NOFX's irreverent take on extremism—we're covering all fronts of war through music. Plus, stick around to hear possibly the most inappropriate war story ever told to a seven-year-old.

Episode 031: As the curtain falls on 2024, we pause to remember some of the musical giants who took their final bow this year. Join Geoff, Russ, and Dave for a heartfelt tribute to six influential artists who shaped the soundtrack of our lives. We're honoring the experimental genius of Can's Damo Suzuki, the southern rock virtuosity of The Allman Brothers' Dickey Betts, and the masterful storytelling of songwriter Kris Kristofferson. We also pay tribute to DIY punk hero Flea Bodine of Judge Nothing, celebrate the groundbreaking bass lines of The Grateful Dead's Phil Lesh, and remember the incomparable Quincy Jones, the mastermind behind countless hits including Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean." Between these musical memorials, Geoff shares some surprisingly entertaining stories about his recent misadventures in self-injury. Because even in our most reverent episodes, there's always room for a laugh. Join us as we raise a glass to these legends and the timeless music they left behind.

Between doses of antibiotics and clap beats, Geoff, Dave, and Russ dive into the etymology of the word "business," debate the merits of various prophylactics, and somehow manage to work in some holiday cheer.

Episode 029: Take a deep breath, fellow music lovers—no, seriously, BREATHE. After the chaos of election season and the general dumpster fire that's been the past few months, Six Picks Music Club is prescribing a much-needed audio chill pill. Join Geoff, Russ, and Dave as they guide you through a meditative journey from stress to serenity. We're starting with the zen mastery of Cat Stevens, the hypnotic grooves of Spoon, and the soulful tranquility of City and Colour to help lower those blood pressure numbers. Once we've achieved maximum chill, we'll gradually lift our spirits with the enlightened vibes of Ceschi, the soul-stirring guitar of Stevie Ray Vaughan, and the euphoric sounds of Broken Social Scene. Between deep breaths and meditation tips, the guys find time to contemplate the erasure of the future (heavy, man) and share what might be the greatest middle school insult ever recorded. Consider this episode your musical Xanax—minus the prescription and potential side effects. Remember: inhale through the music, exhale through the bullsh!t. Namaste, f*ckers.

We'll be walking on sunshine with Katrina & the Waves, spinning right round (baby, right round) with Dead or Alive, and don't worry - we promise not to make you listen to "Don't Worry, Be Happy" on repeat like your local radio station did back in '88. But wait, there's more! We're blasting off with Peter Schilling's "Major Tom," proving that space was the place in the 80s. And of course, what would a trip back to the 80s be without doing the Safety Dance with Men Without Hats? As if that weren't enough to overload your Walkman, the guys dive into a totally mental discussion about the lyrics of some classic songs that'll have you saying, "Gag me with a spoon!"
