  • Ep20: Wales Shafted Again
    2025/02/20

    A bumper episode where Will reveals he is both Moses and a serial frog murderer.

    The gang breakdown the cuts to the arts and sport in Wales before delving into why Cymru gets so much less money when it comes to National Parks.

    Elsewhere Welsh Tory leader Darren Millar tries to justify “that” trip to the USA while his party debate who is actually in charge.

    Plus BBC presenter Iolo Williams speaks to the pod to give his views on Wales’ green spaces.

    About FWSW

    100 years ago if you had picked up the Encyclopaedia Britannica and looked up “Wales” you would have seen four words - ‘For Wales, see England.’

    This implied that Wales was no different to England. Not worthy of its own description. Second fiddle. Frankly, it implied that Wales was simply less of a country.

    That is why we have launched our podcast: For Wales, See Wales.

    It is a weekly look at Welsh politics looking at the issues that matter to people here.

    There are so many people who are passionately Welsh, who care about Wales and want to better understand what is happening here.

    The more informed people are on Welsh issues, the more they are able to hold politicians and decision makers to account for the things that affect their lives.

    Just as importantly, we want to have a good laugh talking and learning about the country we love.

  • Ep19: What's for Breakfast?
    2025/02/12

    In this week’s episode, the gang personally thank Darren Millar for creating content for them. No he didn’t come on the podcast, but he did jet off to Washington DC for a national prayer breakfast with Trump which was, apparently, more important than doing his job as the Leader of the Opposition.

    Will investigates deeper into the Cardiff University job losses, uncovering some hard-to-swallow reasons for the closure of the nursing department.

    And the trio answer listener questions on Plaid Cymru’s budget demands and the appropriation of Welsh identity.
