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!

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!

Good duo bringing great down to earth rugby knowledge from Steff and awesome insights from Martyn
