Picky Bastards Episode 96

About this episode

In this episode, the hosts review four new albums and a classic album, while also discussing their love for Rihanna.

It's time for the 96th episode of the miserable music podcast, with hosts Matt, Sam, and Fran. As always, we cover four recently released albums and a classic album that none of us know, before one of the panel tells you all about a band or artist that they adore in the 'Why I Love' section. This month, we have new releases from Geologist, Ratboys, Dream Nails, and Mandy, Indiana and a classic from Joan Armatrading. Sam closes the episode by telling us why he loves Rihanna (finally). If you like what you hear, please subscribe to the podcast and give us a nice review on whatever app you use. And you can find us on social media with @thepickybastards on Instagram and @pickybs.com on Bluesky. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
