Seven days is a long time in football. The League Cup win over Dundee analysed with guests Jim Douglas and Chris Crighton.
Let's Not Shit Ourselves (To Love and Be Loved)
The terrible away form continues, as Dundee dominate the Dons at Dens.
Is it time for our listeners to crack each other's heads open and feast on the goo inside?
Head is Happy (Heart's Insane)
A remarkable opening day victory at Pittodrie is dissected.
Let's Get This Straight From The Start
League Cup groups successfully navigated, the full-fat stuff starts on Saturday with a potentially defining fixture first up.

Ring the Bells
Three points, and everything's looking a bit brighter if not exactly sunny yet down Pittodrie way.
Anthem for a Lost Cause
Where now, after a dispiriting afternoon in Paisley? (Discounting the fact that every afternoon spent in Paisley is dispiriting.)
This Mess We're In
Reflecting on that sinking feeling that pervaded not just the performance at Ibrox but the other results coming through on Saturday. Also, how best to tackle the next two weeks as a Dons fan.
You're Gonna Need Someone On Your Side
Attempting to accentuate the positives as the Dons are denied at the death by Falkirk.

Keep on Burning
Some positivity to cling to as Aberdeen dispatch Motherwell and move into the last eight of the Scottish Cup.
Winning a Battle, Losing the War
On the cusp of a new managerial appointment, but not seemingly on the cusp of him actually taking charge.

On a none-more-bleak outing in Ayrshire on Saturday, the last knockings of the transfer window, and approaching a pivotal week with not much hope in the bank.

The Man Who Loved Beer
Two Pittodrie encounters this week: as a brave effort against Strasbourg and the proverbial game of two halves versus Kilmarnock are reviewed.

Goals, attacking, poor defending. So much more to get our teeth into this week, and many more reasons to feel optimistic about the side after an imperfect, but positive week.
That's Entertainment
A pair of low-action encounters under the microscope this week as this Dons side continues to underwhelm.
Sinking Hearts

Dancing With The Europeans
Looking back on a win in Ayrshire which feels like a long time ago, but was only on Wednesday, discussing a long-awaited debut for one of our own, and looking ahead to a trip to Cyprus.

Time is Running Out
A bleak week gets reviewed with the anger and frustration it deserved.

Look to the East, Look to the West
On a vibrant Pittodrie European evening against FCSB that left us with a strange mixture of pride at rescuing things, but frustration that an opportunity had been squandered.
Euro-Country
Saturday's stroll in the Greenock sun discussed, before mounting excitement at our return to the European stage kicks in.
This Isn't Helping
On this week's episode, trying to put a gloss on a flat defeat to Celtic, the Yengi question, and avoiding a Greenock banana skin.
Can We Start Again?
On opening day blues, the departure of a crucial component of the Cup success, and a (relatively) kind Europa League draw.
