  • Ep5: What the election of Trump means for Wales
    2024/11/06

    Our first emergency pod!

    Robin and Will dive into the US election with the final result coming in while they record.

    While the election of Donald Trump might have big ramifications for the wider world, there are important lessons for us to learn here in Wales.

    What does this mean for Cymru? Why are populist leaders doing so well? What can moderates do about it? Are there parallels between Welsh and American politics?

    Plus, Will goes full on Tory MP and makes a bet on the outcome of the election while Robin describes the insanity that is writing comedy as an election plays out live.

    Both guys grieve the fact that Mel can’t join them this week because she is on holiday (and definitely not at the Trump after party)....

  • Ep4: Labour's First Budget and Town Centres
    2024/10/30

    In this episode, the gang look ahead to their predictions for the coming week - specifically Labour's first budget in Westminster and what that will mean for Wales.

    Whilst Will is heading to Antigua for the cricket, Mel is going to the Senedd to celebrate Black History Month and Robin is hosting the Recycling Awards where Wales is crowned second best country in the world for recycling.

    The three answer listeners' questions on how council cutbacks are affecting town centres across Wales and what the future may look like for the high street.

    For Wales, See Wales is a weekly dive into the little known (but fascinating) world of Welsh politics. It is produced by HayMan Media.

  • Ep3: What's the point of the Welsh Conservatives?
    2024/10/23

    This week the gang deep dive into just why train travel in Wales is so bad. They explore the way that the HS2 project in England is completely shafting Wales out of billions while Cymru continues to languish in second class. Plus there is a surprise appearance from Producer Darryl who has some surprising train knowledge.

    Focus then turns to the Welsh Conservatives with Mel breaking the bombshell that she used to work for them! Will then unleashes a (slightly hungover) rant about the state of the Welsh Conservatives who really don’t seem to really want to win power in Wales despite being the opposition.

  • Ep2: “It’s better than doing f*** all”
    2024/10/16

    In this week's pod Mel, Robin and Will discover the rarest thing in the world - an interesting Senedd committee meeting!

    After enjoying the fact that a well respected academic said the Welsh Government was doing “f*** all”, the trio dive into the world of Welsh independence, looking at where the indy movement is in Wales and some of the big holes in the argument for Wales leaving the UK.

    They then explore at the recent Plaid Cymru conference with some exclusive interviews with leading politicians to break down exactly what their plans are for Wales (spoiler, we still don’t really know).

    Elsewhere Will finally comes to the realisation he has a smug face, Mel admits to having no musical talent despite being half Welsh/half Caribbean and Robin comes out of the closet as indy-curious.

  • Ep1: Was 20mph actually a good idea?
    2024/10/09

    Will, Mel and Robin explain why anyone would want to give up their time to talk about the wonderful world of Welsh politics including a dive into how Welsh issues always seem to be an afterthought.

    They discuss the madness that is the reaction to the 20mph policy and try to decide if it was actually a good idea!

    Will then attempts to make the gang understand why the Welsh Government have abandoned a plan for gender equality in the Senedd.

    This is a HayMan Media production featuring comedians Robin Morgan and Mel Owen alongside journalist and author Will Hayward.

    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.
