Fresh off the plane from a trip to Fabulous Las Vegas, Callum and Dan return to react to Villa's recent struggles, including their losses to Club Brugge and Liverpool, and the first real bump in the road in Blues' season. The duo also try and make sense of Mark Robins' sacking by Coventry, and take a look at the fortunes of the Second City's Women's teams.

Dan and Callum continue to voyage through the endless black void of the international break by bringing you 'The Regardless XI' for Blues and Villa. The rules are simple: pick the best Blues or Villa XI, regardless of how good those players actually were in the Second City, but rather by taking their whole career in to account. For example, does Dwight Yorke get in the Blues team? Does Peter Schmeichel keep goal in the Villa team? If you still don't get it, give the episode a listen and you'll work it out!

After an unexpected break, The Second City Podcast returns to break through the black void that is the international break. Dan and Callum reflect on a monumental few weeks for both sides of the Second City, including Villa's monumental Champions League win against Bayern Munich, and Blues' continued dominance of League One. The duo also look at the fortunes of their fellow West Midlands clubs, as well as discussing Blues Women, Contract Extensions and 3rd kits.
