Mae'r llwybr i Frasil ychydig cliriach bellach wrth i garfan Rhian Wilkinson ddysgu pwy fydd ei gwrthwynebwyr cyntaf yn y rowndiau rhagbrofol.Roedd Dylan Griffiths ar Y Cae Ras nos Wener i weld "gêm orau'r tymor hyd yma" wrth i Wrecsam guro Coventry City, gan helpu chwalu unrhyw atgofion o'r golled siomedig i Gaerdydd yng Nghwpan y Gynghrair.Tydi'r hwyliau ddim cystal yn Abertawe.

What happens when you spend Halloween night in one of Wales's eeriest ruins? Who – or what – haunts the sand-blown walls of Pennard Castle? And could the terrifying Gwrach y Rhibyn still be keeping watch? It's Halloween Eve, and Mark Rees heads to the haunted remains of Pennard Castle on the Gower Peninsula – a place steeped in ghostly sightings, fairy-folk legends and one of Wales's most chilling curses. From the night a witch-like death omen was said to strike a man mad, to a modern eyewitness who saw something moving in the mist, this episode weaves folklore, history and first-hand encounters into one unnerving tale. Explore the lore this Halloween... if you dare!

In this Podcast Extra, Lesley travels to Rhyl to speak at a march and rally organised jointly by YesCymru and AUOBCymru (All Under One Banner Cymru), the march brought people from every corner of Wales to the north coast, filling Rhyl's streets with a sea of Welsh flags, banners and music.

She interviewed some of the organisers of the march to find out more. ★ Support this podcast ★
There's a bit of Welsh theme in the podcast this week. Lesley, having just come back from speaking at an all-under-one-banner Cymru rally in Rhyl gives us the low down on all things Welsh, the Welsh indepdendence movement and the revival of the Welsh language. We talk about up coming changes to the Welsh voting system, scrapping what we've got for the Scottish elections which still has the first-past-the-post and the move to a completely proportional system. Why aren't we talking about that here in Scotland? We also discuss the separate Yes movement, Yes Cymru, which was set up in 2014 and is separate to the Welsh indpendence supporting parties.We also look at more authoritarian moves by UK Labour and breifly discuss the fall out over the ban on Maccabi Tel Aviv fans traveling to the watch a game against Aston Villa. And the Prince formerly knows as Duke of York and the timidity of the UK Labour government to just deal properly with stripping his titles.LinksREVIVE's national conference, a landmark event that is set to be a pivotal moment in Scotland's land reform journey.https://www.perththeatreandconcerthall.com/whats-on/revive-what-scotland-wants-real-land-reformSenedd Elections changeshttps://senedd.wales/senedd-now/senedd-blog/how-will-the-new-voting-system-work-at-the-next-senedd-election/Welsh placename projecthttps://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025/oct/19/welsh-placenames-submitted-to-wales-project-protect-linguistic-heritage ★ Support this podcast ★

Mae gan Gwalia United gynlluniau uchelgeisiol iawn. Stadiwm newydd, chwaraewyr yng ngharfan Cymru ac, yn bennaf oll, cyrraedd prif adran clybiau Lloegr, y Women's Super League. Hyn oll o fewn y pum mlynedd nesaf. Dau yng nghanol y prosiect ydi Trystan Bevan a Casi Gregson. Tra bod Trystan yn defnyddio ei brofiad helaeth ym myd rygbi proffesiynol i geisio gosod y sylfaen am gynnydd a llwyddiant oddi ar y cae, sgorio goliau yw nod Casi er mwyn cychwyn y daith o drydedd haen Lloegr i'r brig.

Mae bron i saith mlynedd bellach wedi mynd heibio ers i Gymru chwarae yn Stadiwm Principality, ond fydd hynny'n newid cyn hir o dan gynllun Cymdeithas Bêl-droed Cymru. Ymateb cymysg sydd wedi bod gan y cefnogwyr, ond mae Ows a Mal yn gweld synnwyr y syniad er mwyn paratoi at y posibilrwydd o chwarae gemau yn y stadiwm yn Ewro 2026...cyn belled bod gemau rhagbrofol ddim yn symud o Stadiwm Dinas Caerdydd.Mae cryn amser hefyd ers i Wrecsam golli gymaint o gemau.

Roedd 'na gyfle i gael cip o'r dyfodol yn Abertawe wrth i rai o chwaraewyr ifanc Cymru wynebu tîm graenus Canada mewn gêm gyfeillgar. Ac er colli 1-0, mi welodd y criw ddigon i gredu bod 'na genhedlaeth newydd yn barod i dorri drwodd. Digon i'r rheolwr Craig Bellamy - doedd ddim rhy hapus gyda dathliadau'r ymwelwyr - asesu cyn y ddwy her enfawr i ddod yn erbyn Lloegr a Gwlad Belg fis nesaf.Nôl i'r bara menyn dros y penwythnos wrth i'r gemau clybiau ddychwelyd, a chyfle i Wrecsam ac Abertawe gynnwys rhai o'r chwaraewyr arwyddodd ar ddiwedd y ffenestr drosglwyddo am y tro cyntaf.

Roedd hi'n bell o fod yn gyfforddus, ond llwyddodd Cymru i adael Kazakhstan gyda thri phwynt hollbwysig yn rowndiau rhagbrofol Cwpan y Byd - tri phwynt sydd yn mynd â nhw i frig y grŵp. Rhoddodd gôl Kieffer Moore y sylfaen berffaith i Gymru yn yr hanner cyntaf, ond siomedig oedd yr ail hanner. Tarodd y tîm cartref y trawst ddwywaith - gydag un o'r ergydion hynny yn dod gyda chic ola'r gêm. Oes 'na le i boeni am y perfformiad, ta'r canlyniad ydi'r unig beth sy'n cyfri? Roedd 'na dipyn o anghytuno ynglŷn â hynny rhwng y criw!Ond un peth sy'n sicr, roedd pawb wedi rhyfeddu gan berfformiad di-fai Dylan Lawlor yng nghanol yr amddiffyn wrth iddo ennill ei gap cyntaf. Seren newydd y dyfodol

What if death could knock on your door — quite literally — before claiming a life? Would you answer? Would you believe it? And what strange thread connects these events in Wales to a death in America? In this eerie real-life account from 19th-century Wales, a tailor living in a remote farmhouse near Newcastle Emlyn is disturbed by strange and persistent sounds — knocking at doors and windows, ghostly wailing in the night, and an uncanny sense that something is coming. Witnesses hear it too. The knocking grows louder. And then it reaches a crescendo… But the story doesn't end there. In fact, it's only when news arrives from across the Atlantic that the full meaning of these uncanny spirit sounds becomes clear. On this episode, Mark explores a chilling tale of death omens, haunted houses, and the old folk belief that death itself gives warning — if you know how to listen. Explore the lore... if you dare!

Why do people report ghostly knights, phantom horses and spectral visions during the full moon in this Welsh beauty spot? What ancient force still lingers atop Cefn Bryn? On this episode, Mark journeys to the windswept heights of Gower during the summer solstice to investigate one of Wales's oldest and most mysterious sites — a place steeped in druidic ritual, pagan legend, and haunting lore. Is this neolithic tomb truly connected to King Arthur? Did Merlin himself walk these lands? And what really happens at midnight when the capstone stirs and the spirits rise? From love-seeking rituals involving ghostly cakes, to tales of Dylan Thomas invoking the dead, this is one eerie pilgrimage you won't forget. Explore the lore... if you dare!
