Black & White: Night & Day
Taylor Payne hosts your go-to Newcastle United podcast from The Athletic with club correspondent Chris Waugh and Senior Writer George Caulkin.
Eddie Howe's side made light work of ten-man Brentford after Josh da Silva's red card but the performance was in stark contrast to the chaos of the corresponding fixture at St James's Park.
As we reflect on a near-unimaginable upturn in form we also hear from Amanda Staveley and Mehrdad Ghodoussi, who, it's fair to say, aren't being coy about their ambitions for the future.

Competence is Bliss
Taylor Payne hosts your go-to Newcastle United podcast from The Athletic with club correspondent Chris Waugh and Senior Writer George Caulkin.
We're revelling in Newcastle's new-found functionality this week. The players have defined roles that fit their skillsets and the midfield of Jonjoe, Joe, and Jo, is anything but stuttering.
No rest for the wicked, though, and we're back in the capital for a game that, while big for Newcastle, looks huge for Brentford. They have just one point from their last seven league fixtures and have been sucked back into the relegation battle.

Trippier, Winning, and Howe!
Taylor Payne hosts your go-to Newcastle United podcast from The Athletic with club correspondent Chris Waugh and Senior Writer George Caulkin.
News of an injury to the inspirational Kieran Trippier has taken the edge off things slightly but we're in a state of disbelief after Newcastle won their third match in a row.
It was a nice way for manager Eddie Howe to bring up 100 days in charge, and we discuss the progress made under his watch.

Everton Overwhelmed... George Excited
Taylor Payne hosts your go-to Newcastle United podcast from The Athletic with club correspondent Chris Waugh and Senior Writer George Caulkin.
We're all on cloud nine after the St James' Park faithful raised the roof and the team, inspired by Kieran Trippier, put in a performance to be proud of, sealing back-to-back Premier League wins.
It looks like Dan Ashworth will become Newcastle's Technical Director, or similar, but a compensation package has to be agreed with Brighton to ensure he doesn't have a sustained period of gardening leave after resigning his post there.

Deadline Trio: A Satisfying Transfer Window
Taylor Payne hosts your go-to Newcastle United podcast from The Athletic with club correspondent Chris Waugh and Senior Writer George Caulkin, wrapping up a pleasing January transfer window.
Bruno Guimaraes, Dan Burn, and Matt Targett completed the club's January business and we were so pleased we provided a musical welcome to the much-needed reinforcements; the results were, let's say, mixed.
And, as promised, we've been eavesdropping on Alan Shearer's interview with Kieran Trippier, the man who got the ball rolling for Newcastle's new owners in the transfer market.

Relief at Leeds Lifeline with Robbie Elliot
Taylor Payne hosts your go-to Newcastle United podcast from The Athletic with club correspondent Chris Waugh, Senior Writer George Caulkin, and special guest Robbie Elliott.
Eddie Howe's men finally held on to a lead, at Leeds, with a committed performance, one that saw them gain ground on most of the teams around them and gives real hope of avoiding relegation with reinforcements expected before the transfer window closes.
Robbie Elliott lived the dream during three spells at the club, and it sounds like he continues to do so on the West coast of America. We caught up with him to talk about his part in the club's success under Keegan and Robson, and picked his brain on how the new owners can realise their ambitious goals.

Another Win Bites the Dust
Taylor Payne hosts your go-to Newcastle United podcast from The Athletic with club correspondent Chris Waugh and Senior Writer George Caulkin.
Newcastle threw away yet another lead, this time against relegation rivals Watford. Can Eddie Howe and his coaching staff fix the mentality of a squad that shows significant signs of anxiety.
Off the pitch the mood is much brighter with the new owners passing their 100th day in residence. They haven't changed anything significant in such a short period of time, but some early worries have been allayed as they begin to turn the ship around.

FA Cup: 4th Round Holiday Booked
Taylor Payne hosts your go-to Newcastle United podcast from The Athletic with club correspondent Chris Waugh and Senior Writer George Caulkin, joined this week by Adam Leventhal.
Newcastle's hysterically bad FA Cup record continued with yet another third round exit, this time to League One side Cambridge United. Credit goes to the visitors, whose winner came from an Alan Shearer fan with a famous surname... but there were worrying signs for Eddie Howe with concerns about his team's body language and attitude.
Watford come to SJP next, and while it's a big week for the Toon it's a massive one for the Hornets: they have to play all three relegation rivals inside six days thanks to the hastily re-scheduled trip to Burnley. Adam Leventhal is The Athletic's Watford writer and he confessed to feeling a little sick about the next few days.

Newcastle Can't Get Trippier? Think Again
Taylor Payne hosts your go-to Newcastle United podcast from The Athletic with club correspondent Chris Waugh and special guest, Spurs and England Writer Jack Pitt-Brooke.
The transfer window has arrived and, if reports are true, the club is starting with a real statement of intent by signing one of European club football's best defenders.
The mood is positive around the club after a December that didn't yield many points, but saw us actually gain a little ground on the other teams at the bottom, and the FA Cup tie with Cambridge should be a fun fixture.

To George, Best Wishes, Isaac Hayden
Taylor Payne hosts your snow-to Newcastle United podcast from The Athletic with club correspondent Chris Waugh and Senior Writer George Caulkin.
We've decamped to the Forth for our Christmas special, so there's gift-giving, crackers, and reflections on an entirely miserable 2021 with one remarkable highlight.
There's a bit of admin as well, we review the recent backroom appointments at the club and look back over a week of football when some more controversial refereeing decisions were rendered entirely moot by Newcastle's hapless defence.
