As the January Transfer Window slams shut, Callum and Dan react to the business done by the Second City Clubs. They also look back on Villa's triumphant night against Celtic, their far less triumphant night against Wolves, and Blues' continued dominance in League One...

Dan and Callum return for a rare but always enjoyable in-person edition of the Second City Podcast. They talk through Blues' top-of-the-table clashes against Wrexham and Huddersfield, Villa's recent Champions League exploits and their League draws against Arsenal and West Ham, as well as January signings and the second coming of Tony Mowbray at West Brom.
