We miss football. That's typically the case in April, but especially true now. Join us for a special episode of the Pick Six podcast featuring former NFL QB Trent Green, as we revisit and re-live some memorable match-ups in NFL history and the players that defined those games. First, some games more recent in our mind including Baltimore-Cleveland from Week 4 of 2019, which marked Baltimore's last regular season loss (6:45). Next, a trip all the way back...to January...for the Chiefs' epic comebacks against both the Texans and Titans, on their way to Super Bowl 54 (11:45). How about those epic Brady vs. Manning battles as the Patriots faced off against the Colts in the 2004 and 2007 AFC Championship Games (20:00)? Trent was a contemporary of those two, but claims even as a competitor, those two dueling was must-watch TV. If those games bring up a sense of sports nostalgia, then you're in luck. Over the next week, CBS Sports Network will be re-airing all of the above games and more. Tune in for Classic NFL Games on the CBS Sports App or CBSSports.com by logging in with your provider. And before we let Trent go, we had to ask about 'The Greatest Show on Turf' St. Louis Rams that he was a part of (29:00). Why didn't the dynasty work out? What were his emotions being on the sideline during a Super Bowl victory? Many memories are shared during this trip down memory lane.

Los que tuvierais ya hecho vuestro listado de lo mejor del año, os aconsejamos dejarlo en 'stand by' hasta que terminéis de escuchar este programa, ya que es muy probable que tengáis que modificar esa lista. Viajaremos por el mundo para escuchar y conocer un poco más sobre bandas de diversos países que están haciendo una música excelente y sorprendente. Una gran selección musical de esas que crean afición por su inmensa calidad y que sorprenderá a más de uno. Os traemos lo último de bandas históricas como los suecos The Flower Kings, de otras más recientes como los estadounidenses Days Between Stations e incluso operas primas de impresionante calidad como es el caso de los italianos Progenesi. Para demostrar que el Art Rock no conoce fronteras, viajaremos hasta la India para descubrir el primer trabajo de una sorprendente y fantástica banda llamada Coshish, quienes con la inmensa calidad de su álbum debut se nos presentan como una de las mayores revelaciones del año. ¿Más cosas? Pues sí, disfrutaremos del trabajo de tres supermúsicos que se han unido para hacer una creación como solo ellos podrían hacer: Levin, Minnemann & Rudess nos romperan todos los esquemas con un disco magistral. Los holandeses Sky Architect nos presentan su atrevido nuevo álbum mientras los italianos de Submarine Silence hacen lo propio con el suyo. Por si esto fuera poco, os traemos dos interesantísimas entrevistas, primero con los franceses Elora, que presentaron su magnífico álbum debut en el pasado Festival Crescendo y con quienes mantuvimos una interesante entrevista; no perdáis de vista a esta banda que a buen seguro dará mucho que hablar en el futuro. La segunda entrevista, realizada también durante el pasado Crescendo, fue con los divertidos noruegos Arabs in Aspic; una animada charla llena de curiosidades y datos sobre esta genial banda que saben dominar el escenario como nadie y que nos presentaron su nuevo álbum, toda una muestra de fescura y genialidad. Y para rematar un programa tan impresionante, no podíamos irnos sin dejaros otro de los grandes discazos del año 2013 y que ha llegado rompiendo listados de top10 a diestro y siniestro, nos referimos a los también noruegos AIrbag y su magistral nuevo álbum, 'The Greatest Show on Earth'. Todo ello con el habitual espíritu entusiasta de Subterranea y el buen humor de sus contertulios, no exento de buenos debates y diferencias de opinión que nunca deben faltar en un medio independiente. Un programa que no os debéis perder si queréis escuchar una buena muestra de la mejor música que se hace en la actualidad.
