CHANNEL 6 CIRCULAR: WHERE TO FIND US IN WEEK 6

Welcome to the Channel 6 Circular, our in-season replacement for TRL. For the 2026 college football season, this Friday newsletter will catch you up on whatever we've been writing this week, as well as let you know where else you can find us writing/chirping this week. You can find last week's circular here.

Good morning! You smell nice today. Here's everything we wrote this week:

THE 2026 TOP WHATEVER: WEEK FIVE

A sugar beet is not a potato. It does not require love, nor does it have anything to do with the outcome of this game.

Channel 6Spencer Hall

THING ONE: Our proprietary power rankings of however many teams we feel like acknowledging after a weekend of games. The #1 team this week is Idaho. Pitt is also ranked. Thousands of you paid us money to write those words!

MYS. TERY’S STAR LOCKS: WEEK 6

“Mars settles the feud with the truth: Blood is thicker than water. It also stains.”

Channel 6Jamie Howard

THING TWO: We are now 22-13 this season when picking college football games based on nothing but astrology. Which is to say, everything. (The stars picked Oregon this weekend, for the record, sooooo we'll all find out together whether this is a good idea, won't we?)

THING THREE: Is WEBINAR!, and can be found after the paywall jump below. Scroll down! Keep going! Be brave! We believe in you. ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️

Here's where else you can find us this week:

🎧 Saturday night's Fullcast After Dark (on Patreon for $4/month)

🎧 Wednesday's episode of the Shutdown Fullcast (free as always)

🎧 Spencer on Salt Lake City's ESPN radio with another Spencer (who goes by Spence, which is how you can tell them apart, since they both have beards)

Those of you on our free email list are about to see a paywall jump; the back half of this newsletter contains the invitation link and details for Thing 3 of Week 6: WEBINAR, our weekly stakeholders-only Saturday morning pregame chat show.

If you'd like to join a paid tier of Ch6 membership (again, that’s two things a week for either $10 a month or $100 for a year), you can join us for these live hangouts all season long, as well as gain access to everything we put out on Channel 6 platforms PLUS the entire back catalog.

And if this is where we leave you for the week, thanks for reading. As is customary, we would like to present you with a nice photograph of a bird before you go:
