Ep8: How Welsh are you?

So it turns out Will really loves birds of prey…As well as that bombshell, the gang discuss the awful flooding in South Wales. The chat then turns to Welshness and Welsh identity. Robin reveals he was born in England (“don’t hate a baby”), Will realises he has probably gone native while Mel explains her long and turbulent relationship with Welshness that led her from the Conservative Party to wearing a Yma o Hyd fleece.Big thanks to our sponsors Hello Starling and Lion ContainersFor Wales, See Wales is a HayMan Media Production.About FWSW100 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/Get in touch at [email protected] Wales, See Wales is a HayMan Media Productionhttps://www.haymanmedia.co.uk/
