Great podcast. Great combination of hosts. As a Welshman who no longer lives in Wales, your team give me the rugby talk that I can no longer get in the pub on the weekend!! Keep it up!!

travellingtaffy · Jul 2024

Must listen to catch up with Welsh rugby. Great to have a touch of home for an expat and love the interviews and all round view of the game. Keep up the top work. Da iawn pawb!

Bevans1985 · Mar 2021

I don’t miss these rugby podcasts here in Pennsylvania - Gareth and Nicky do a great job with interesting guests. The Scott Baldwin interview was award winning. Ideal company for a Tredegar boy far from home.

Jenko🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 · Apr 2020

Love the pod, great fun and the occasional keen insight... the hosts are knowledgeable but light-hearted, and it’s worth a listen if for the accents alone (at least, as an American.) Thanks for the great work!
