It has been quite a while since we had a Sunderland special - and we went for something a little bit different.
It is short and sweet, but to celebrate Republica playing The Fire Station on Friday 3rd February, we invited lead singer Saffron on the show.
Quite simply the voice of the Stadium of Light, she chats her memories of playing for 40k+ Sunderland fans, why her song Ready To Go still resonates with Mackems and plenty more.

League action returns for the Lads, though the location stays the same as last week with Sunderland set to visit the New Den and Millwall.
The Lions are pretty good at home, so we head south knowing it is going to be a challenge...
And the excellent Alex Grace from That Millwall Pod joined to give us the lowdown and exactly what we can expect from them.

There were a ton of positives to take from Craven Cottage but one HUGE negative as we drew 1-1 with Fulham.
It will be a replay for the Lads in a couple weeks as we put in a superb display against Marco Silva's side, however, the seemingly season ending injury to Ross Stewart leaves a huge hole in the squad.
Ross and Dave join to discuss the game, that injury and what needs to be done in the transfer market over the next few days of the window.

A free hit against a high flying Premier League team and one of the best away days in the country? Magic of the cup innit.
Sunderland head to West London for a fourth round FA Cup clash against Marco Silva's Fulham outfit to test out just how far we've come in the last six to eight months.
And luckily for you, we had one of our best guests ever in the shape of Jack Collins of Fulhamish Podcast and The Athletic Soccer fame to give us the low down on Mitrovic and co.

The season that just keeps on getting better threw another superb Sunderland display our way as we swatted aside alleged promotion hopefuls Boro 2-0 at the SOL.
Brad, Ross and Dave join for a podcast jam packed with positive energy that is bound to flow right through you. And there's plenty drink involved.

It is finally here, the derby that nobody thinks is a derby derby between Sunderland and Boro.
The Teessiders are bang in form as Michael Carrick and his boys arrive at the Stadium of Light but Sunderland, reeling from last week's 3-1 defeat to Swansea, have shown they are a match for anyone in this league.
Can we finally get one over Boro after not beating them for over a decade? Tom Green (no not that one) from the excellent Boro Breakdown joined us to let us know what we can expect this Sunday at noon.

Well that was really, really annoying.
A bad refereeing performance (and you, linesmen) and a 3-1 defeat is about as a crap as it can get but the lad remain positive as we take a look back at Saturday's afternoon's game at the SOL.
Ross and Dave join to pick apart the bones.

League action will return for the first time since the 26 December as the Swans dive up to Sunderland for a lovely 3pm Saturday afternoon kick off.
They haven't exactly been on fire, but can Swansea still zoom up the league beginning with a win at the SOL on Saturday? Let's hope not.
To let us know exactly what we are in for though is return guest Luke from the excellent SwansCast.
Tune in!

I said I didn't care - but I definitely do now. That was great.
The Aiden O'Brien derby was decided by two very, VERY late goals as Sunderland deservedly moved onto Round Four of the FA Cup after a dominant display in Salop.
Ross, a very merry Dave and Brad joined me to give their thoughts on the win, Chris Rigg and this month's January window.
