It's a lively one today, guys! We predict what sort of reaction Oliver Glasner might get when Forest come to Palace after the international break, we heap praise on the great Tyrick Mitchell, we share a few Palace stories from down the years, we rage against VAR (I mean, seriously, what is it really offering other than frustration) and the long international break.

As ever, please email [email protected] with any questions etc

And please do rate, review and subscribe and all that malarkey!

Much love. Eagles!

Straight off the bat - this ep contains some punchy language. Please be advised if there are nippers in the car, for example. Mark and James share a couple of anecdotes where the air goes a shade of blue.

In this episode, Mark does a terrific job of reminding James that winning a match 4-0 in Europe is not a regular occurrence. James attempts three new Palace chants (and regrets it in real time - see him blush on YouTube!). We look ahead to the Leeds game this weekend. And generally feel pretty good about things?

Big thanks as ever. And please get in touch via [email protected]

Eagles!

It's episode 6! And Mark is on tour in Cornwall! Kudos to the great man for making the magic happen in the middle of the street (you can watch on YouTube! Behold, the magic of the internet!).

We dissect the Ipswich loss. But wasn't Timber brilliant, eh? Reckon we could all shout "Timber!" every time he brilliantly clatters into someone? And what about Jorgen Strand Larsen?! Sensational.

But there's no getting away from it - the defence is, ultimately, a mess.

Also, real talk, James (let's all pretend I'm not writing this) had to dash as my dinner was ready.

Always Be Palace hosts Mark Steel had enormous fun at Palace vs Boro last night, on a night when JSL was terrific. We run the rule over the new lads, and also worship Kamada's goal (and indeed the man himself). We also look forward to the Ipswich match.

And please do rate, review and subscribe! Big thanks, one and all. We're super grateful at you getting on board.

Hosts Mark Steel and James Gill enjoy group therapy as they try and come to terms with a bit of a tonking at Selhurst Park (4-1 to Man City, we're loathe to remind you). We appear leaky at the back, and we're not sure where the goals are coming from (but, goshdarnit, we're remaining positive!). We look ahead to the upcoming blockbuster trilogy, and encourage fans to go to the League Cup game vs Middlesbrough (especially good for those who don't have a season ticket - a chance to see the team).

Please email [email protected] with any questions and so on.

And we really hope a happy outcome can be reached with the Holmesdale Fanatics!

Talk about a potty start to the season: Mateta drama, an injury to lovely Chadi Riad, Sarr rumours... oh, and we lost at Everton. However, you can count on Always Be Palace hosts Mark Steel and James Gill to try and find the positives...

As ever, please email [email protected] with any questions, etc. And huge thanks to everyone for getting on board so far!

Mark kicks off the episode with some 1940s-style front-line reporting from the building work at Selhurst Park...

(oh, and as mentioned in the ep - the Kardashian/Palace tweet is by Palace fan MrPringles19)

It's now a weekly thing! Always Be Palace with hosts Mark Steel (comedy icon, loads of telly and radio) and James Gill (Always Be Comedy, TV warm-up, former Palace correspondent for the Croydon Advertiser 2002-05).

We chat pre-season, the majesty of Daniel Munoz, the comic timing of the great Adam Wharton and so much more.

Welcome to a new Crystal Palace-tastic podcast: Always Be Palace.

Your hosts are comedians and actual friends Mark Steel (comedy icon, Mark Steel's in Town, Mark Steel Lectures, What the F*** is Going On and much more) and James Gill (Always Be Comedy founder and MC, Harry Hill's Clubnite, TV warm-up).

Each week they'll chat all things Palace - and much more besides.

The pilot episode gets off to the perfect start as Elliot Steel (comedian and son of Mark) has put on the washing machine before leaving the house - so you may be able to hear the soothing sound of Elliot washing his clothes. (N)
