NFL WEEK 6 Picks

·1 hr 17 min·5 clips
2025 has 20 games decided in the final minute through Week 5, and the hosts debate whether that is a record pace.
Around The Couch starts with last week’s results and the kind of sports-podcast chaos that only really works when everyone already knows the rhythm. The crew checks in on how badly last week went, because the record still matters even when they are laughing at it. Ando, Solo, Brett, and Axl compare notes on the standings, the bad beats, and the small recoveries that keep the season from feeling pointless. A jersey check shows up early, with Solo wearing an Aikman jersey as the jersey of the week. Brett is absent, and the others keep bringing him up in the middle of the jokes and housekeeping. The conversation keeps drifting into what they are watching elsewhere, including Task and Alien. Earth, before circling back to football. The card gets plenty of attention, including the Giants, Eagles, Ravens, Cardinals, Jets, Vikings in London, Saints, and Lions. The panel sounds like people who have been around the league long enough to have grudges, instincts, and too many references stored up. The jokes come fast, the topics veer sideways, and then the show snaps back to the games. Even the ugly weeks become material, especially when they are comparing who got crushed and who escaped with something respectable. By the time they land the plane, the episode has covered the games, the sidelines, and the weekly ritual of laughing through NFL frustration.

As heard by us

A loose NFL hang that folds picks, trivia, and pop-culture side chatter into one lively group conversation.

Around The Couch leans into football talk, jokes, and side chatter, and that blend gives the episode its shape. The panel opens by looking back at how it did the previous week, then moves through picks, trivia, and pop-culture detours without losing the thread.
