À propos de cet audio

For Wales, See Wales is a podcast helping you better understand the most wonderful country on earth - Wales.

Each week we shine a light on the utterly bizarre (and often hilarious) world of Welsh politics and issues.

So many people care deeply about Cymru but very little attention is given to it by the wider UK media. This podcast aims to help fill this gap.

Guardian columnist Will Hayward along with comedians Mel Owen and Robin Morgan are here to pick apart the political scene in Wales with a combination of journalistic insight and satirical sideswipes.

For Wales, See Wales is a Hayman Media production.

  • It’s Christmas!
    Dec 25 2025

    After a jam-packed year for the Senedd and politics in Wales, Robin, Will and Mel celebrate Christmas in true For Wales See Wales style.

    The gang get festive with a bit of gift sharing, some Nathan Gill inspired cocktails and a Welsh politics quiz!

    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.

    Plus we have some great merchandise which you can buy here: https://for-wales-see-wales.teemill.com/

  • Labour are in trouble
    Dec 18 2025

    This week the gang look at a Labour MS being on their phone during a committee and him totally styling it out.

    We also have Eluned Morgan doing an impression of a Welsh icon which makes Mel have the ick.

    The trio then listen to the Rhunicorn and First Minister literally trading horses…

  • First Minister of Scotland John Swinney on the pod!
    Dec 11 2025

    This week the pod hosts Scotland’s First Minister. Speaking from a mobile studio at the British Irish Council Summit, John Swinney makes the wonderful confession that his wife is a big fan of For Wales, See Wales.

    Sadly there was no Robin this week so Will and Mel sat down to chew the fat with the Scottish leader including asking “why does Scotland get a better deal than Cymru?”

    Will asks Mr Swinney about his relationship with Plaid leader Rhun ap Iorwerth and whether any future alliance between the parties would extend to the Scots supporting changes to the Barnett formula. Mel discusses how Scotland are supporting the Gaelic language and what inspiration they have taken from Wales.
