| 7/10/26 | Ep 71 : Scary animals | The PickMaster General obviously felt that Martin, Gareth & Andy needed some help with this week's topic so invited an old friend of the pod, Victoria Denoon, back to join the panel. PMG then tasked the panel with choosing the animals that truly scared them which led to some fierce debate. Find out who is scared of what and why on this week's episode. Interact with the podcast via our social media portals or via e mail thepick3show@gmail.com | 54m 18s | ||||||
| 7/3/26 | Ep 70: Fictional deaths (that broke you) | As everyone relaxes into the holiday period, the PMG set the panel an emotional subject to debate. List the top 3 "fictional deaths that broke you", and was then heard chuckling as they hung up the red phone that is the only link to the PMG's office. Gareth has already admitted to regularly enjoying a good cry at emotional tv/film storylines, Andy's jovial persona might well mask a soft centre, but what on earth makes Martin go a little misty eyed in the world of fiction? Let us know if you a... | 51m 22s | ||||||
| 6/26/26 | Ep 69: Extraordinary places | The PickMaster General is packing for his/her summer holiday and so was thinking about travel when selecting this week's topic for the Pick 3 panel. "Select the top 3 most extraordinary places that you have visited" was the instruction sent down from the PMG, so the panel convened to discuss their personal travel highlights. Let us know your choices via our social portals on X,Instagram, BlueSky or via our dedicated e mail @thepick3show@gmail.com. Happy holidays to our listeners. | 55m 46s | ||||||
| 6/19/26 | EP 68 : Cop Shows | A staple of the tv schedules are the 'cop shows' with every generation having their favourites. Will the Pick 3 panel, with three decades of separation, have any crossover in their selections for the best tv cop shows that they have watched. Gareth showing up with bleached blonde hair, jacket with the sleeves rolled up and a pair of electric blue Espadrilles certainly gave a huge nod to his 80's heyday! As usual their were some strong opinions and some interesting choices. Do you agree or dis... | 52m 40s | ||||||
| 6/12/26 | EP 67: Things people are weirdly competitive about | This week the PickMaster General tested the panel's competitive instincts by setting an unusual challenge. Competition is a part of everyday life whether that be for selection to a sports team, interviewing for a new job or simply getting tickets to a popular gig. However, people also get weirdly competitive over a wide range of 'irrelevant' or 'unimportant' things. PMG tasked the panel to select their top three examples of weird competitiveness that they have witnessed, or are guilty of unde... | 54m 05s | ||||||
| 6/5/26 | Ep 66: Life changing decisions | The PickMaster General tested the panel by asking them to list their top 3 life changing decisions. Martin has the most choices to sift through, Gareth is a contingency planner so making big decisions is not an alien concept, whereas "laid back" Andy takes his time over even the smallest of decisions. Find out what the panel eventually chose as their biggest life decisions. Interact with the podcast via X, BlueSky or e mail thepick3show@gmail.com | 55m 28s | ||||||
| 5/29/26 | Ep 65: Death Row dinners | Our panel are in trouble and find themselves on death row awaiting final dispatch. However, very pleasingly the PMG has granted each of them unfettered access to whichever culinary delights they would wish to enjoy in their final hours. Despite some reservations regarding how hungry they might be, Martin, Gareth and Andy made their choices and placed their orders. What would you choose in such circumstances? Let us know via our portals on X, Instagram & BlueSky or via our e mail: thepick3... | 46m 17s | ||||||
| 5/22/26 | Ep 64: Ways we waste money | The PMG has always been careful with the show's resources but are the panel as careful with money or do they waste cash? Martin, Gareth and Andy discuss the top 3 ways they each waste money, but most listeners will want to contact Andy by the end of the episode after he reveals a stellar deal he negotiated! Tell us how you waste money by interaction via our social portals on X, Instagram & BlueSky or via our e mail: thepick3show@gmail.com | 52m 03s | ||||||
| 5/15/26 | Ep 63: Things that ruin your mood | Some days start out fine and then, unexpectedly, something happens which alters our outlook on the day. These random events/distractions are unforseen, but they change our attitude to how we finish our tasks for the day. In a moment of devilishness the PMG decided to ask the panel to list their top three things that can ruin their mood. In their usual fashion, Martin, Gareth and Andy, took up the challenge and delivered their choices. Let us know what dampens your mood on any given day by int... | 51m 54s | ||||||
| 5/8/26 | Ep 62: Fictional worlds | Gareth wasn't at all happy when the PickMaster General selected the topic of the top 3 Fictional Worlds that the panel would like to live in. Martin & Andy both saw the topic as a fun challenge and enjoyed Gareth's discomfort as he struggled to get his Accountant's brain to consider fantasy realms. Fair to say that this week's choices see a very wide divergence of opinions.

| 5/1/26 | Ep 61: Lies we were told as children | A tradition as old as the hills is for parents to reinforce their viewpoint by telling "white lies" to kids. Generally this is to get children to fall in line but sometimes these lies become generational. The PickMaster General challenged Martin, Gareth and perennial bad boy Andy to recount what they were told as children that, with the benefit of hindsight, proved patently false. Let us know what "mistruths" you were told as children by the very people you trusted the most! Contact us ... | 51m 08s | ||||||
| 4/24/26 | Ep 60: Things people pretend to enjoy | Not everything is as good as it's cracked up to be, so this week the PickMaster general challenged the panel to pick the top 3 things people pretend to enjoy. Despite the usual age related differences there was some surprising continuity between Martin, Gareth and Andy but do the listeners agree? Let us have your thoughts via X or BlueSky, or via our listener e mail portal thepick3show@gmail.com | 51m 36s | ||||||
| 4/17/26 | Ep 59 : Top Gigs | Live music is one of life's great joys but not all gigs are created equal. Sometimes it is the setting, sometimes it's the staging but frequently it is the sheer joy of a shared experience. The PMG challenged the Pick 3 panel to select their top 3 gigs of all time and explain why they made their choices. It is safe to say that there is a wide variance in the choices plus a few fun stories along the way. Let us have your choices via our social media portals, remembering there are no wrong choi... | 54m 33s | ||||||
| 4/10/26 | Ep 58: Small luxuries | This week the PMG challenged the panel to select their top 3 small luxuries they couldn't live without. A tricky topic so Martin, Gareth and Andy drafted in some additional expertise and asked 'friend of the show', Ashley Parks, back to add some additional input. A fun episode with a few predictable choices and a couple of swerves to left field. Let us have your choices via X/Bluesky or via our dedicated e mail Thepick3show@gmail.com | 59m 34s | ||||||
| 4/3/26 | Ep 57 : Underrated skills | The PickMaster General does throw some intriguing questions at the Pick 3 panel and this week's topic of top 3 "underrated skills" certainly made the panel think. What skills are underrated, do people realise that some life skills can set them apart from the competition? Martin, Gareth & Andy debate some key skills that are of more benefit than people generally realise. Let us have your thoughts via our X & Bluesky social portals. | 51m 48s | ||||||
| 3/27/26 | Ep 56: TV Finales | You watch many episodes of your favourite tv shows but eventually the storylines run their course and the writers look to resolve key issues in a finale that leaves loyal viewers satisfied. There are many tv shows undone by a poor finale or early cancellation but for others it is the glorious conclusion of years of storytelling. The PMG tasked the Pick 3 panel with selecting their top 3 shows that "spotted the landing" (although Gareth had never heard of this phrase) for a memorable final epi... | 45m 43s | ||||||
| 3/20/26 | Ep 55 : Life improving purchases | We all buy a lot of stuff but what three items you have purchased could be described as "life improving"? The PMG task the Pick 3 panel with choosing three purchases that have made a significant life improving impact on the panellists. Suffice to say the variance on this episode is significant! Let us have your choices via our social portals on X & Bluesky. | 53m 16s | ||||||
| 3/13/26 | Ep 54 : Burning House (Top 3 items you would save) | If disaster struck and your house was on fire, what three items would you try to save? The PickMaster General posed this question to the panel but gave the additional clarification that family, pets and photographic memories were already saved. Martin, Gareth and Andy ponder what items are deemed irreplaceable and what is important enough to race back for as the flames take hold. Let us have your thoughts via our social portals on X & BlueSky. | 48m 10s | ||||||
| 3/6/26 | Ep 53 : Smells (that transport you back in time) | Maybe it is your grandmothers perfume, the smell of cooking on an open fire, pipe tobacco smoke hanging in the air, an oily rag as you worked on your first car or candy floss at the fairground, smells have the ability to take us to distant memories. The Pick 3 panel debate the smells that transport them to another time and place. Interact with the podcast by messaging comments/suggestions to our social media portals on X & BlueSky. | 47m 24s | ||||||
| 2/27/26 | Ep 52 : Movies that deserve a sequel | So many movies have sequels or are part of interrelated franchises, but what about some great movies that have never been revisited, what movies deserve a sequel moving the story forward? The Pick 3 regular panellists are joined by special guest, Ashley Parks, who is a keen listener and regular contributor to the show, to try and identify the top movies that could expand their original stories in a sequel. As ever, let us have your comments or further suggestions on our social media portals o... | 55m 21s | ||||||
| 2/20/26 | Ep 51 : Personal travel disasters | We have all had them, if you haven't you are one of the lucky ones. This week the panel relive some of their worst journeys/travel experiences after the PMG selected the topic from the cloud based database. Martin explains why he hates a small Italian border town, Andy explains why a cheap holiday to Turkey was unnerving, whilst Gareth relives a parent's nightmare in Hong Kong! Let us know your top travel disasters via our portals on X & Bluesky, are they worse than ours? | 53m 23s | ||||||
| 2/13/26 | Ep 50 : One hit wonders | The PickMaster General suggested to the panel that they list their top 3 "one hit wonders" but as usual this led to some debate as some artists only scored one hit in the UK or US, but had success elsewhere. Are they truly "one hit wonders"? Leaving Martin, Gareth & Andy to be the arbiters the PMG washed his/her hands of the topic and left it to the panel to make some big calls. As with a previous music related episode, some listeners might enjoy playing the chosen tracks between the pane... | 47m 15s | ||||||
| 2/6/26 | Ep 49 : TV Animals | The brief to the panel from the PickMaster General was pretty straightforward, select your top three animal stars from tv. However, somewhere along the way a couple of panellists (and apparently listeners) became a little confused and started including options from movies! As Martin frequently states, keeping the Pick 3 panel in line is like herding cats! Join Martin, Gareth & Andy as they sort of debate the subject they were given. It is highly likely that the PMG will impose sanctions... | 47m 31s | ||||||
| 1/30/26 | Ep 48 : US Sitcoms | We all watch many US comedies but which ones make the Pick 3 panel's top 3. As Martin, Gareth and Andy meet at an old comedy club the chances of much crossover between the decades seems unlikely but, as we all know, this trio have a habit of surprising us all. Join the Pick 3 panel as they discuss, deride and outright dismiss each other's choices but as we all say, there are no wrong choices only poor constructed opinions. | 49m 21s | ||||||
| 1/23/26 | Ep 47 : Words/Phrases (we would like to see the back of in 2026) | The use of language has always been important but certain words/phrases have become overused and annoying. Martin, Gareth & Andy were tasked with finding their top three words/phrases that they would like to remove from everyday conversations. Unsurprisingly there were a few disagreements but also a surprising amount of consensus. Let us know via our X or BlueSky portals what your choices might be, it's not as easy as you think! | 47m 54s | ||||||
