With Jonny back in the co-hosts chair, this new episode features a full rundown of both rounds of top flight fixtures played over Golden Week.
We begin with Jonny's travels while his mum was visiting the country, and Japan's triumph in the Under 23 Asian Cup final against Uzbekistan, with their ticket to Paris stamped after the semi final win over Iraq (to 13:25).
Then Jonny reviews the Osaka Derby, with Gamba earning a first victory in the fixture for five years (to 27:55), before we move on to the four teams that won both of their Golden Week games - Machida, Kobe, Kashima and FC Tokyo - who all leapfrogged above Cerezo Osaka and now occupy the top four spots in the table (to 54:05).
Next we chat about the rest of the games from Monday's J1 Matchday 12, including Hiroshima's first loss, Tokyo Verdy going two-for-two over Golden Week, and Shonan hauling themselves off the bottom, before we finish with a chat about the first leg of the ACL Final, and the weekend's Matchday 13.
