Sunderland took four points from six over the Easter weekend to extend their unbeaten run to 12 games.
With only eight games to go, the League One promotion race is really hotting up, with our Achilles heel Charlton next up at the Stadium of Light.
Me owld mucka Nath from @CharltonLive joined me this week to discuss the Addicks season so far.
• Six months into the Sandergaard era - how is it going?
• He didn't do much at Charlton, so what does Nath make of Aiden McGeady tearing up League One?
• Surely it can't be another Sunderland vs Charlton final?
• Nigel Adkins is the nicest man on the planet - but how has he started at the Valley?
& much, much more.

Sunderland butted Karl Robinson's Oxford United out of the way on Friday to edge closer to those automatic promotion spots, but another win this Easter Monday against Peterborough United would put the Lads in dreamland.
However, Posh will be feeling the exact same and Tim from popular Posh pod @TheYellowBlock joined me to discuss both sides biggest game of the season.
• Why Posh's dangerman is not Clarke-Harris, Szmodics or Dembele, but someone returning to fitness...
• Is Tim tipping Hull and Posh, Sunderland and Posh or Sunderland and Hull for automatic - and who do he think are the best two teams based on quality shown this term?
• Darragh MacAnthony and he unique ability to sign young, unknown stars and sell them for millions.
• Old school terracing, and reminiscing about previous Peterborough away days.
& much, much more.

Automatic promotion is on isn't it?
If Sunderland can manage to navigate a way past Boey Jarton this weekend, I think even I'll start to believe.
To chat about a chaotic season at the Mem for Bristol Rovers and preview this weekends is Max from the always excellent @GasCast.
• Three managers, one season sounds a like a bad porno.
• Is Joey Barton failing, did Ben Garner fail, or was it Paul Tisdale's fault - or is it something else to blame?
• How is Jack Baldwin getting along? Is he as Marmite as he was at SAFC?
• Life without Jonson Clarke-Harris at the Mem.
& much, much more.

What the falk happened this week? Tons happened! Ian, Jack and Scott joined me to chat about Dumbarton's hilarious own goals, the whereabouts of Roy Essendoh, the best football movies and some pretty serious stuff.
- Mike Ashley is funny - if you're a Sunderland fan
- What to do when the plasterer tells you your wall is fucked
- There's nothing better than a goalkeeper bagging a goal, is there?
- And, a serious topic. We look at Slavia Prague incident from last week and ask what can be done to prevent this from happening again.

I was delighted to be joined by one of the stories of Scottish football this week, Livingston manager David Martindale.
We discuss his life growing up, how he got into football, how he turned his life around and, most importantly, how he sees his future at the Tony Macaroni Arena.
- A very honest assessment of his ability, but immaturity, in his late teens.
- Playing street football, how it got him to Rangers and Motherwell and why it didn't work out.
- How his path to Livingston FC grew, developed and blossomed.
- An honest assessment on mistakes, learning from them and using them to develop his unquestionable likeable character.
- All that and loads more.

Sunderland face another big test this weekend, however, as promotion hopefuls Lincoln City come to the Stadium of Light in abig six pointer.
To preview the game with me and let us know what we have in store is Tom Clarke, a huge fan of the Imps but also the Digital Sports Editor for The Times and Sunday Times.
• Two home defeats to Rochdale and Gillingham - are Lincoln out of the automatic's race?
• How badly is the loss of Jorge Grant affecting the Imps?
• Where does Tom define success for his side this season - and perhaps most importantly - what is failure?
• Which Sunderland player is he dreading facing this weekend?
& much, much more.
