Ep7: The Tories are soon to be extinct in Wales
This week the pod discuss how Eluned Morgan got her rave on, Wales gets shafted a different way by HS2 and what Labour have planned for the Welsh NHS. We then deep dive into the last general election results and discover that it’s a myth that Labour voters are going to Reform and find out that the Conservatives are literally dying out. Most importantly, we discuss the rampant injustice that Robin isn’t the GQ man of the year …Big thanks to our sponsors Hello Starling and Lion ContainersFor Wales, See Wales is a HayMan Media Production.

Ep6: Do we need to worry about Reform in Wales?
A bumper episode this week where the gang look at the threat Reform pose in Wales at the next Senedd election.Will spends the day at the party's conference where he interviews Nigel Farage and is mocked by Lee Anderson. He also reveals he once considered “no platforming his Nan”.Mel breaks down the best way to speak to someone who you don’t agree with and Robin reveals that he is positive to the point of being unbearable. Along with exclusive interviews with Reform voters in Wales this is possibly the gang's most important podcast yet.For Wales, See Wales is a Hayman Media production.

Ep5: What the election of Trump means for Wales
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)....
