" A few precious gems set in amongst the impenetrable quartz..." 
Which, let's be fair, sums up most of our casts if we're honest. 
We're back, and there's not much to really talk about so this should be a quick one. So let's not beat about the bush and get a wiggle on! 
Part 1 00:00 
First up it's meet the newbie as we get good old Cookie (no, not that one, everyone's second favourite Wealdstone related Cookie) to open his heart and briefly tell us his backstory. 
Then onto the nuts and bolts. The away FAC game at Grimsby which started out on paper as a bit of a damp squib, and turned into one of the great Stones away days, And then the trip to Shots last Saturday and our well deserved 3 points there. Plus there's the NLC game midweek against Fulham. Exciting stuff! 
Part 2 35:00 
Onto the previews with matches against Dale at home, Eastleigh away and then Tamworth at home. 
We have a look at recent player developments as Dreher departs, Hutch and Scotty go out on loan, and Dion is recalled. Also, what's the situation with Sam in the sticks? Questions are asked about the clubs communication when it comes to such matters. 
And finally, it's looking forwards to Wycombe at home in the cup, on the telly, at stupid o'clock in the morning. What do we all think about that then? Also, Pete reminds us all about the elephant in the room. It's been a year since the new stadium plans were announced, and there's been scant news? Is anything happening? We assume it must but it would be nice to hear something official from the club just to reassure the fan base, and something with more reach than a small post on the fans forum. More comms please! 
Hydey is back in the hot seat for tonight's episode, with regulars PA Pete, Rob and fresh blood Paul giving their take on things. Oh, and what sounds like Bob Fleming in the background chipping in when he should be googling instead. We just can't get the staff.
