The algorithm keeps serving me up ghouls with gopros 'mooching' around pit villages and I would quite like that to stop

As a member of the IFS it is just very surreal to be doing a pod with Andy and Sam, some moments last night recording where I just forgot I was doing a pod, thought I was listening to TFTM

Love Bruce but that song is an absolute car crash. Conversely, not a big Dylan fan but Must Be Santa Claus is a solid gold classic.

Father Christmas by The Kinks is probably my favourite of the Forgotten Christmas Classics

The Dawson Trajectory of starting football podcasts should mean that you'll be talking about brass hands, walls and Dick Turpin within 18 months

Even though the present is great, it's lovely to talk about the past. This very much slots into the "middle-aged men just saying 90s footballers' names" pigeon hole but I'm all for it.

Not one mention of Jan Eriksson though, weirdly

"I am so blissfully unaware of everything"

THREE Billy bookcases, Greg?

We are BACK!

This club. These fans. Just phenomenal.

Tuesday night promises so much - let's hope Sunderland take this opportunity Unlike other play-off campaigns, Sunderland take on the decisive leg of the semi-finals in front of a home crowd. Richard Easterbrook reckons this could be a famous night at the Stadium of Light

"It promises so much. It could be one of the greatest nights we’ve ever seen at the Stadium of Light."
