Summary

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 along with comedians Mel Owen and Robin Morgan are here to 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.

  • Plaid Cymru are in charge of Wales with Reform as the opposition - what happens now?
    May 13 2026

    As the dust settles on a historic night in Welsh politics Robin, Mel and Will break down what happens next.

    They look at how Plaid plans to govern. Ask whether Reform will be a good opposition and predict what direction Labour are heading.

    In a world first Robin also finds a talking turtle...

    About FWSW

    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.

  • Welsh Senedd Election Reaction Show!
    May 8 2026

    The day is here. The votes are counted. Eluned is gone. The Rhunicorn has entered the stable.

    Mel, Will and Robin look back at the day that Welsh politics changed. Why did Labour lose? What happened to the Greens? Did the Tories have a good night? Will Reform show up?

    Robin is recording this from a cruise ship in Greece (working not clubbing) so the audio is a little patchy. But we didn’t want you to miss out on such a seismic day!

  • Senedd election preview
    May 6 2026

    With mere hours to go until the Senedd’s most important election yet, the For Wales See Wales trio tackle the contentious issue of tactical voting.

    Will, Mel and Robin look at which areas are most likely to be strongholds for the bigger parties, whilst also throwing down some predictions of their own.

    The next episode will be dropping on Friday evening after the majority of the results have been announced. Keep your eyes and ears peeled!

    In the meantime, some tickets are still left for our LIVE show at The Glee Club in Cardiff on Saturday 23rd May for a post-election round up! Tickets and info here...
