Easygoing road-trip browsing through dusty barns and cluttered garages, full of gentle banter, nostalgia and small haggling victories.

Created by: Mike Wolfe
Genres: Reality
Starring: Mike Wolfe, Frank Fritz, Danielle Colby-Cushman

Overview: Pickers like Mike Wolfe and Frank Fritz are on a mission to recycle America, even if it means diving into countless piles of grimy junk or getting chased off a gun-wielding homeowner’s land. Hitting back roads from coast to coast, the two men earn a living by restoring forgotten relics to their former glory, transforming one person’s trash into another’s treasure.
