I am delighted to be joined this week by Peter Walker, a world renowned teacher of Developmental Baby Massage. Peter has been practicing yoga and sharing his techniques with babies and families for over four decades. Born during WW2, Peter did not have the easiest start to life and found his passion later on but has taken his experiences and wants to share them to benefit others. Peter is a remarkable man and I hope you enjoy his story.

This week I am joined by journalist Sian Lloyd. Sian will familiar to many of you, particularly if you live in Wales as she has been responsible for bringing you the breaking news. Sian originally studied Law before finding a passion for journalism and has been the face and voice of shows on BBC Wales and S4C.

I love chatting with authors and it's easy to see why when you hear from the brilliant Tamsin Winter. Tamsin is full of wonderful stories and passion, and it is easy to see why she is so successful in her field. A very interesting past lies behind Tamsin and I thoroughly enjoyed learning about her experiences and how they shaped her into she person she is today.

The wonderfully talented actor Ethan Lawrence is the latest guest to join the pod and what an enjoyable episode! If you have half as much listening as I did recording this interview, then you are in for a treat. The man behind roles in Bad Education, After Life and Horrible Histories is as charming off camera as he in on it, and reminiscing about school days and the 90s made for a great chat.

The wonderfully hilarious Desiree Burch joins the podcast this week and lives up to her reputation with charming stories full of honesty and quick wit. Desiree Burch is a comedian, writer, actor, theatre-maker and one of the USA's best exports. She has rapidly established herself as one of the breakout comedians of recent times and can be found on numerous TV shows such as Taskmaster, Live At The Apollo and Too Hot To Handle.

This episode I speak with singer, songwriter and music producer, Danny Gruff. I first met Danny in our hometown of Wrexham in around 2006 and since then he has released numerous EPs, singles and albums. Danny can often be found in the recording studio and if he's not recording himself, he's recording others and producing their songs. If you think Danny is cool, listen to his journey up until this point. And also, reserve judgement on how cool he is until you find out what the first gig he attended was...

This week I am joined by actor, writer, comic and executive director of Wrexham AFC, Humphrey Ker. Humphrey was sent off to boarding school at a young age and attended the prestigious Eton school, making him the first privately educated guest on the show. Here, we discuss his school days, formative years and, of course, the extraordinary tale of sleeping giant, Wrexham AFC.

This week I'm joined by fitness and nutrition expert, Jordan Syatt. Jordan was far from the perfect student but he is a very intelligent man who sought out knowledge about the things he was interested in. If you're used to seeing Jordan the trainer and want to know more about Jordan the person, then you're in the right place!

Welsh comedian and writer joins the pod this week for a chat about her school days, later life and her love of the beautiful nation that is Wales. After initially thinking this chat would be a breeze, Esyllt's trip down memory lane may require therapy further down the line, which I am sadly unable to fund. Diolch Esyllt!
