For Wales, See Wales

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 and comedians Mel Owen and Robin Morgan 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.
