  • My slice of wales

    As someone who’s left Cardiff nearly 10 years ago. The boys’ very localised niche references put a smile on my face every week and give me the little slice of home I need to keep me going. Signed up to the patreon a couple of years ago as their circa standard 2 hour pod wasn’t long enough for me.
