Our Christmas Eve episode gives the Pick 3 panel the opportunity to discuss their favourite Christmas memories. Plenty of festive fun, and a couple of heartfelt seasonal revelations. The PickMaster General and the Pick 3 panel wish all our listeners a very happy and peaceful holiday period.

Please note that the content of this episode may not be suitable for younger children excited by the prospect up reindeers, sleighs and present deliveries via the chimney!

All of us look forward to the Christmas break and the chance to enjoy the extensive festive tv and movies while feeling somewhat stuffed with food. The PickMaster General asked the panel to consider their top 3 Christmas tv & movie memories and interestingly there was some crossover between the guys. Join us as we debate the greatest tv/movie moments from our Christmas's past.

Happy Christmas to all our Pick 3 listeners, may it be a time of fun and laughter with your families/friends.

Who trains for four years, frequently alone and sometimes in the dark, to be ready to unleash your maximum effort and potential on a single designated day in the Olympics? Many have trodden this committed path and some have ridden their dedication to glory and an Olympic Gold medal. For others the challenge has proved heartbreaking, but still they carry on. Sometimes just making it to the starting line of an Olympic event is a triumph, a celebration of the true spirit of the Games.

The PickMaster General challenged the panel to seek out their top 3 Olympians and justify their choices.

We have all heard many "conspiracy theories" some of which hold our fascination whilst others are obviously complete bunkum, but it is a strange human trait that people create myths and legends to explain situations in which they have no personal involvement. The Pick 3 panel were challenged to pick the three conspiracy theories that have intrigued them personally and and how they rationalise the related mysteries. Join us as we delve into the unprovable world of the conspiracy theory.

All of us undertake a series of daily tasks that are tedious and given the chance we would outsource them. The panel meet to debate their top three choices of tasks they would willingly hand over the respnsibility to others. Some call this streamlining, others call it being lazy but if you are honest with yourself you would take the opportunity if it was available.

The rules were simple, pick the 3 famous people you would like to be for a day and then justify your choices. Trusting Martin, Gareth and Andy to follow these rules seemed risky, so the PickMaster general brought in a fourth panellist, a voice of reason, common sense and, more particularly, someone who knows not to let the "boys" get out of control. Despite the PickMaster General's best laid plans the episode veered off course in it's usual chaotic style.

The panel meet to discuss the most overrated foods, especially those that are forced down our throats by influencers and marketing teams. We all have our preferred options but which foodstuffs attracted the ire of the Pick 3 Panel? Gareth sees himself as a knowledgeable foodie, Martin openly refers to food as "fuel", whilst Andy just likes a good nosh up. Strangely there is some correlation between the panel regarding their dislike of certain overhyped foods.

Everyone has musical choices that they secretly love but won't really own up to when challenged. When the PickMaster General dropped this subject on the panel Gareth squealed with delight, Andy smiled enigmatically and Martin frowned. No easy or predictable choices this week but some revealing insights into the secret world of the Pick 3 panel's musical preferences (albeit the ones they keep hidden from general view).
