Whose Coat is that Jacket?

We think everyone would agree that there’s a lot wrong with the world at the moment. And wouldn’t it all be a lot better if you were in charge? Yes you!Think of all the sensible policies you could enact to make the world a happier place!Such as banning the socks and sandals combo.Or bringing back the death penalty for playing jazz in a public place.Or free wine for the over 40s.So this week Morgan and Rhianydd take up their seats in the parliament of Cloud Cuckoo Land and put before the people their Top Three Policies For A Better Britain.Will Morgan introduce compulsory Barbra Streisand Studies to the national curriculum? Will Rhianydd convert all religious buildings to the worship of Freddie Mercury?Well no, cos that would be silly. But if you want to find out what’s really on their radar then be sure to cwtch up with us and tune in.And don’t forget to cast your vote for your favourite WWW and cultural moments.See you at the hustings!Follow Morgan James @morganjamesofficialMusic by James Biebrach

WARNING... POTTY MOUTH ALERT!Did your mother ever threaten to wash your mouth out with soap and water? Do you frequently drop the f-bomb, or even (on occasion and only when called for) the c-bomb?Are you team Malcolm Tucker, or team Mary Whitehouse (Google ‘em if you’re under 40!)?What are we effing talking about now? Well, it’s sw*&ring of course! Yes, this week, Morgan and Rhianydd are discussing cussing. Naughty words. Or as Netflix terms it, foul language. Is it big and clever, or is it the sign of a restricted vocabulary?Who knows what we’ll decide, but you can guarantee that we will be turning the airwaves bluer than a very blue thing with this one, so if you’re easily offended or listening with children it’s probably best to Frank Bough and listen to something else.In addition to these X-rated delights, we have a diminutive Wenglish Word of the Week, and a couple of truly historic cultural moments.Follow Morgan James @morganjamesofficial

In an episode we recorded before the most recent gob-smacking revelations about the prince formerly known as Andrew, this week we delve into the age-old question of is it worth having a royal family?Are they fundamentally different to normal mortals, or are they just the same as us but rolled in glitter? What, if anything, do they contribute to the country and would the whole shebang collapse if we got rid of them?Did old Oliver Cromwell have the right idea when he snipped off King Charlie’s bonce?The peasants are revolting.Yes, they are!And because we’re feeling generous we’ve got a particularly gooey Wenglish Word of the Week, and a couple of rebellious cultural moments.

Do you know all the words to Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau?Have you ever seen Tom Jones live?Have you got a tattoo of your mam’s bara brith recipe?Did you go to school with any of the following?:Kelly JonesIoan GruffuddGareth BaleMichael SheenRuth JonesOwain GlyndŵrMerlinGod (yes, she is Welsh!)If you answered ‘yes’ to any of the above questions, chances are you’re WELSH, so well done, da iawn, you’re winning at life!Rhianydd and Morgan answered ‘yes’ to all of those questions, so this week we’re maxing out our Welshness to mark Dydd Gwyl Dewi (St David’s Day). We’ll be reminiscing about St David’s Days of yore and considering what unique qualities set the Welsh apart as a nation. To top it all we’ve got a classic Wenglish Word of the Week, and the usual perfectly chosen cultural moments. Just because we care.Follow Morgan James @morganjamesofficialMusic by James Biebrach

It’s a many-splendoured thing. It’s all you need.It’s like oxygen.Rhianydd feels it in her fingers and - strangely - Morgan feels it in his toes.What are we talking about? Well it’s LUURRRVE of course! What is it? Why do we feel it? How many kinds are there? Join Morgan and Rhianydd as we ponder this one out, sharing our insights and marvelling at the wisdom of those clever buggers the ancient Greeks, who seem to have had it all sorted out millennia ago.And on top of all that we’ll be treating you to a brand new Wenglish Word of the Week, as well as sharing our cultural highlights of the week gone by.Follow Morgan James @morganjamesofficialMusic by James Biebrach

Following last episode’s bombshell announcement that Morgan wants to be less of a people pleaser and more of a people displeaser, happily going around telling people exactly what he thinks of them, this week we ask the question... ‘Is it ever ok to lie?’From teeny-tiny white lies through to humongous whoppers that make your nose grow longer than a Valleys terrace, we consider the pros and cons of telling fibs.Surely sometimes it’s better to, er, bend the truth a little?:‘Does my bum look big in this?’ ‘Mammy where do babies come from?’‘Why weren’t you in the team meeting last night, Rhianydd?’Are these questions we should ever answer truthfully?Or, do we owe it to people to tell them the honest truth if they ask for it?Hmmm, it’s a tricky one!So pop your headphones in, tell your other half that you’re listening to that other podcast that they’ve been telling you about, and cwtch up with us.Plus, we’ve got the best ever Wenglish Word of the Week and unmissable Cultural Moments. HONESTLY NOW, MUN!Follow Morgan James @morganjamesofficialMusic by James Biebrach

Happy New Year everyone!, or as we say in Wenglish, “‘Appy New Yer, But!”So it’s January again - a time for reflection; a time for plans and promises; a time for standing on the bathroom scales and silently weeping.And as Morgan and Rhianydd emerge blinking into the grey light of dawn from their Christmas debaucheries it’s time to consider what 2026 holds in store, whether it’s getting fit, changing jobs, or learning a new skill. Why do we make New Year’s Resolutions, and do we ever keep them?Maybe you’re doing Dry January? (we’re not!)Maybe you’re doing Veganuary? (nope!)As well as this, instead of joining the gym we’re bringing you another classic Wenglish Word of the Week, and of course we’ve got some fabulous cultural moments to tickle your jaded palates. Spoiling you, we are see.So take off your daps, grab your zero alcohol beer and cwtch up with us.Follow Morgan James @morganjamesofficialMusic by James Biebrach

Deck the halls with boughs of holly, God rest ye merry gentlemen, We’re walking in the air...It’s Chriiiiiissstmaaaaaaaaas! Yes, the season of joy and good cheer is upon us once again and it’s gone all Dickensian in WCITJ Towers as Morgan Cratchitt and Rhianydd Scrooge meet once again over a thimbleful of eggnog to share a box of chocolate-covered sprouts and put the world to rights. This Yuletide we ponder such timeless teasers as, is it better to give or to receive (quiet in the cheap seats!)? When’s the right time to open your pressies? And what’s the best Christmas song ever (clue - it’s not by bloody Cliff Richard!)? We share some childhood Christmas memories and Rhianydd challenges Morgan with some frankly bizarre examples of 19th century Christmas cards. Think the Victorian Christmas was all about plum pudding and hot toddies? Think again!And because Christmas is a time for giving we’re spoiling you with TWO Wenglish Words of the Week, and a couple of properly cultural cultural moments for your delight and delectation. Nadolig Llawen pawb!Follow Morgan James @morganjamesofficialMusic by James Biebrach

As winter draws in and we put our winter drawers on, Rhianydd and Morgan like to gather round the fire to tell each other stories that have been handed down for generations (or more likely we’ve just found on the interweb).It’s an age-old human need, to banish the cold and dark with tales of long ago; tales of gods, monsters, princesses, knights in shining armour and bloody huge dogs with big sharp fangs that terrorise the life out of hapless travellers on the dark highway…Cwtch up with us as we share our favourite stories, and prepare to shed a tear or two over one of Wales’s most famous - and heartbreaking - legends. You’ll probably need to console yourselves with a sherry and a mince pie or two, so go and crack a bottle open while we get comfy.As well as tales we also have another wonderful Wenglish Word of the Week for you, and a poignant cultural moment. Follow Morgan James @morganjamesofficialMusic by James Biebrach

Was life better B what? What are these whimsical Welsh wallies on about now? Well, for the uninformed, ‘BI’ = Before Internet! You’d have to be over thirty (or possibly even as old as Morgan and Rhianydd) to remember such halcyon days: days when if you wanted to find something out you had to … look in a book!; days when if you wanted to buy cinema tickets you had to … go and queue up!; days when if you had to drive somewhere you had to… (gasps)...read a bloody map!We had patience! We had resourcefulness! We had critical thinking skills!Think of what we miss out on now that we have the answers at our fingertips: whole nights in the pub arguing whether it was ‘Robert thingummy’ or ‘Al whatshisname’ in ‘that film’, and wait a minute ‘is he still alive anyway?’. Or the joys of waiting for the bus in the rain, wondering whether it would even turn up, with no way of finding out…Hmmm. Maybe life BI wasn’t all it’s cracked up to be after all. So yes, this week Morgan and Rhianydd debate the pros and cons of t’interweb, what we’ve lost and what we’ve gained. And what we would have done with it if it had been a thing in 1987 (nothing good in Rhianydd’s case, it turns out).And no, the irony of the fact that we can only do this podcasting lark because of the world-wide-net, or whatever the young people are calling it these days, isn’t entirely lost on us. There’s a pungent Wenglish Word of the Week, and if we can’t think of a cultural moment, we’ll just pop on chatgpt to help us out. No one will notice. Follow Morgan James @morganjamesofficialMusic by James Biebrach

Imagine the scene - you and five of your all time heroes gathered round the dinner table for a night of good food, good company and - hopefully - good wine. Ahh, bliss…Who would be on your list?: Elvis? Obama? Attenborough? But hang on, does Elvis give a good-god-damn about the environment? Could you sit Lady Gaga and Marilyn Monroe together or would they end up clawing each-other’s eyes out? It’s a flippin minefield!Yes, this week Morgan and Rhianydd discuss their dream dinner party, the five people (living, dead or fictional) that they’d most like to break bread with, and why. There are some shock omissions, some curveballs and even some last minute substitutions after one of Morgan’s guests couldn’t get a babysitter.So, if you fancy whetting your appetite with us, grab a glass of wine and cwtch in by there next to Anne Boleyn, just be careful she doesn’t bleed all over your Findus Pancakes.For afters we’ve of course got a cracking Wenglish Word of the Week, while our cultural moments, will be served alongside the coffee and mints while someone phones a taxi for Rhianydd, because actually, everyone else has gone home now. Follow Morgan James @morganjamesofficialMusic by James Biebrach

Whhoooooooo, it’s that time of year again, when the nights draw in, spirits walk abroad and Rhianydd gets her sprouts on in time for Christmas. Interestingly this episode was recorded as Spring had sprung, bringing with it fresh new life and growth which got Rhianydd to thinking about death!!! So as Halloween approaches, what better time to unleash this episode. If you’re ga-ga about ghouls, soft on spectres or potty about Poltergeists then this week’s episode is for you!In this episode, Morgan and Rhianydd explore the world of ghosts, ghouls and things that go bump in the night: What was that thing that made a British army officer run screaming into the night? Who controlled the ouija board in Morgan’s Streatham flat, and why did Mary get ‘sucked off’? If you want to know the answers to all these questions and more then cwtch up with a crucifix and a cuppa by a roaring fire, draw the curtains, lock all the doors and tune in.If there’s something strange in your neighbourhood, who ya gonna call? Whose Coat Is That Jacket of course!And we’ve got a decidedly un-spooky Wenglish Word of the Week, and two completely unseasonal cultural moments, so don’t miss that! 

One, two, three, four, five! Senses working overtime! Who else here is old enough to remember this 1982 XTC classic? Or is it just us?Up for discussion with Rhianydd and Morgan this week is the vexed question of which sense you could live without (and ‘common sense’ doesn’t count since one of us doesn’t have very much of that anyway…).Could you stand never again setting eyes on such wonders as Aberdare Bus Station? What about never again hearing your beloved’s dulcet tones as they ask yet again what you’ve done with their shoes/CD collection/third-best surfboard? Or not being able to taste that delicious gin and tonic they just poured for you? And what about the pros and (very definite) cons of our sense of smell…? And must you touch there when reading this???Would life still be worth living without them?After solving that particular conundrum, we’ve of course got Wenglish Word of the Week, as well as which cultural seas we’ve been dipping our ten tiny toes into this week. Don’t be a twpsin, cwtch up and join us!Follow Morgan James @morganjamesofficialMusic by James Biebrach

Remember that film? Yes you do - the one with Gwyneth Paltrow and the bloke off Four Weddings, where our Gwynnie misses a train and her life takes a different turn? Yes, that one!This week Morgan and Rhianydd consider those moments where things could have happened SO differently, from ballsed-up auditions to stupid decisions and more. Are we self-saboteurs? Do we make our own luck? Or are we at the mercy of Fate, the gods, or whatever you want to call it. It’s a mind-expander!And of course you can expect another cracking Wenglish Word of the Week, as well as sharing our cultural highlights de nos temps. Don’t be silly mun, cwtch up and join us!Follow Morgan James @morganjamesofficialMusic by James Biebrach

University of Oxford, or University of Life? A degree in Philosophy and Economics, or a diploma in Ducking and Diving? School of Hard Knocks, or … well, you get the picture by now! Yes, this week’s ‘WCITJ’ question is Are you book smart, or street smart? Morgan and Rhianydd get together again to consider whether it’s worth having a brain the size of a planet if you need help to cross the road, or can you get through life solely on your wits. Cwtch up with us to chew this one over, as well as sharing in our cultural highlights and, of course, the unmissable Wenglish Word of the Week!Follow Morgan James @morganjamesofficialMusic by James Biebrach

Money? Success? Just a really massive glass of wine?

Actor and singer Morgan James and teacher and writer Rhianydd Biebrach have been friends since nursery school in the Welsh Valleys. Fashions and hairstyles may have changed (or disappeared!) through the years, and life has taken them in different directions, but their friendship has stood the test of time. Now, in their middle-aged prime, they are getting together once again to ponder some of life’s great questions and share some of their wit and hard-won wisdom - whether it’s wanted or not.Taking a different theme every episode, Morgan and Rhianydd bring their unique perspectives, often with a Welsh slant, to whatever’s been on their minds: ‘What makes you happy?’‘Is it ok to tell lies?’‘What is this thing called Love?’  So, if you often find yourself wondering the same thing, join Morgan and Rhianydd in asking that ubiquitous Welsh question, ‘Whose Coat Is That Jacket?’!Cwtch up and tune in to Old friends having New conversations.Follow Morgan James @morganjamesofficialMusic by James Biebrach
