Could 2026 be the year that Elis and John change beyond recognition? And we're not talking spiritually or even emotionally; we're talking physically. Because Elis aims to bolster his handsomeness across the calendar year, and John toys with the prospect of going bagless under the old peepers.Cosmetic surgery aside, John has written up a 28 point plan for if he became World King. Luckily he lost confidence in delivering all 28 points, but do watch this space.And we kick off Elis's Annus Connectus by delving back into the nation's favourite pastime: the Cymru Connection. It all ends with Elis asking a random Welsh person whether they know a tech guy from a random theatre who once said he liked the Beatles. Normal Cymru Connecting resumed then.Send in your wonderful correspondence to elisandjohn@bbc.co.uk or WhatsApp the show on 07974 293 022.

The Welsh Government's Sustainable Farming Scheme has come into force. It replaces the Basic Payment Scheme which has been phased out since the UK left the EU. What will it mean for Welsh farmers? We speak to a farmer near Brecon to find out.Environmental groups in Scotland are leaving the advisory boards on the country's new agriculture schemes in protest at what they say is a failure to address climate change and nature depletion. RSPB Scotland, Scottish Environment Link and other groups say they no longer have confidence in what they say was supposed to be to co-design of the post-Brexit schemes but in fact has ignored their views and failed to deliver meaningful reform. The Scottish Government says it is creating new policies that will deliver for both nature and the climate.Thousands of farmers, environmentalists and policy makers converge on Oxford this week for the annual Oxford Farming Conference and Oxford Real Farming Conference. This year, the Oxford Farming Conference theme is growing resilience, concentrating on how farmers can create the conditions on their land, and in their businesses, to weather future challenges. Climate change is just one of those. We visit a farmer in Herefordshire whose land has been repeatedly flooded. He's working with other farmers to make their businesses more resilient on a landscape scale.Presenter = Anna Hill Producer = Rebecca Rooney

Breath to Breath Film that celebrates the contributions by Dr. Michael WelshA Conversation with Dr. Michael Welsh: The Science That is Saving LivesIt's always such a privilege to feature CF icons on the podcast. Over the years, we've been fortunate to host some of the most influential names in cystic fibrosis research, including Dr. Francis Collins, the former director of the NIH and one of the authors of the Human Genome Project, and his longtime friend Dr. Mitch Drumm, who was working on his doctorate when the CF gene was discovered back in 1989.I actually saw Mitch recently at a dinner, and as many of you know, Dr. Collins continues to be a tireless advocate for good science and for sharing its importance with the world.And now, we add another legend to that list: Dr. Michael Welsh from the University of Iowa.Dr. Welsh tells his story beautifully in the University's film Breath by Breath: Living with Cystic Fibrosis. In it, he describes how his curiosity about the CFTR protein led to groundbreaking discoveries that ultimately laid the foundation for CF therapies, the very treatments that have changed (and saved) thousands of lives, including the lives of my daughters.Dr. Welsh's career is extraordinary, spanning decades of research, mentorship, and discovery. He's the Carver Professor of Internal Medicine and Molecular Physiology and Biophysics at the University of Iowa, and from 1989 to 2024, he served as an Investigator with the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. He currently directs both the Pappajohn Biomedical Institute and the Cystic Fibrosis Research Center.We've linked both his full bio and the film in the show notes, and I highly encourage you to check them out. His accolades could fill pages, actually, an entire book! We had so many laughs too in this podcast! So much fun. You'll really enjoy it.Dr. Welsh shared insights not only into his scientific journey, but also the heart behind the work. He recently received the Lasker Award for pioneering CF research that led to life-saving therapies, a recognition that celebrates decades of persistence, curiosity, and collaboration.We discussed so much:How his team began unraveling the mystery of the CFTR protein and what that breakthrough moment felt likeWhat it's like to see patients thriving because of the treatments that grew from that workWhy the University of Iowa decided to produce Breath by Breath, and what the film means to him personallyWhat new treatments and discoveries he's exploring nowHearing Dr. Welsh describe the intersection of science, hope, and humanity is powerful. You can tell that for him, this work isn't just research, it's a mission.As the documentary shows, CF isn't just a disease studied under a microscope. It's a lived experience for patients and families, one that now includes real hope thanks to the breakthroughs made by scientists like Dr. Michael Welsh.Biography:Dr. Michael Welsh is the Carver Professor of Internal Medicine and Molecular Physiology andBiophysics at the University of Iowa. From 1989-2024, he was an Investigator of the HowardHughes Medical Institute. He directs the Pappajohn Biomedical Institute and the Cystic FibrosisResearch Center.Dr. Welsh obtained an MD and completed an internal medicine residency at the University ofIowa. He then trained in pulmonary medicine and research at the University of California, SanFrancisco and physiology at the University of Texas, Houston.Dr. Welsh and his colleagues discovered that the protein affected in cystic fibrosis is an anionchannel, elucidated its functional mechanisms, discovered ways that mutations disrupt function,and showed that mutations can be rescued. This work led directly to development of medicinesthat target CFTR and are highly effective for most cystic fibrosis patients. To understand diseasepathogenesis, he and his collaborators developed cystic fibrosis pigs, the first mammal, otherthan mice, in which a gene was targeted to generate a disease model.His clinical activities focused on pulmonary diseases. He has trained many physicians andscientists and received the Distinguished Mentor Award, University of Iowa Carver College ofMedicine.To watch the film, click here:  https://uihealthcare.org/cystic-fibrosis-research-iowa#documentaryTo learn more about Dr. Welsh: https://internalmedicine.medicine.uiowa.edu/profile/michael-welsh Please like, subscribe, and comment on our podcasts!Please consider making a donation: https://thebonnellfoundation.org/donate/The Bonnell Foundation website:https://thebonnellfoundation.orgEmail us at: thebonnellfoundation@gmail.com Watch our podcasts on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@laurabonnell1136/featuredThanks to our sponsors:Vertex: https://www.vrtx.comViatris: https://www.viatris.com/en

Host Ricky Sacks is joined by Broadcaster Russ Williams, Marlon and Luke as Ben Davies netted his first Spurs goal for over two years but it wasn't enough to earn us the win as Sunderland hit a late equaliser on Sunday afternoon. The Welsh defender was on hand in the first half to give us the lead on what was his first start of the season – his first goal since scoring in the 4-2 defeat at Brighton on 28 December, 2023. However, the Black Cats levelled with 10 minutes remaining through Brian Brobbey as we had to settle for a point in an entertaining encounter at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The draw in our opening home match of 2026 took our unbeaten Premier League run against Sunderland to 15 matches and leaves us 13th in the table. We also discuss the latest developments of Spurs during this summer transfer window, as Tottenham Hotspur have had an £8million ($10.7m) bid for Santos left-back Souza rejected. The Brazilian side have turned down Spurs' offer for the 19-year-old. Santos are hesitant to accept a bid for the teenager whom they have high hopes for and believe his value may increase in the future.

Bloody New Year (1987) was chosen by co-host Dave as the final movie pick in the Year of the Stitch-Up, and what a note to end on. The film was directed by Norman J. Warren, a cult British filmmaker best known for low-budget horror and exploitation fare like Satan's Slave and Inseminoid. By the late 1980s, Warren was working with extremely limited resources, and Bloody New Year was produced on a modest budget aimed squarely at the VHS and late-night rental market. The production leaned heavily on atmosphere, strange concepts, and practical effects rather than polish, embracing the scrappy DIY ethos of British horror in the post-slasher boom era.Shot largely on location along the Welsh coast, the film made creative use of abandoned buildings and seaside settings to create an eerie, off-kilter mood without the expense of large sets. Like many British genre films of the time, it struggled with distribution, receiving little theatrical exposure before finding its audience on home video. While largely ignored on release, Bloody New Year has since gained a cult reputation among horror fans who enjoy obscure, unconventional oddities from the VHS era. As the closing chapter of the Year of the Stitch-Up, it's an appropriately strange, divisive, and deeply VHS-coded selection — the kind of movie that feels discovered rather than released.If you enjoy the show and would like to support us, we have a Patreon ⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠.Referral links also help out the show if you were going to sign up:⁠⁠⁠NordVPN⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠NordPass⁠⁠⁠Trailer Guy Plot SummaryFrom a quiet coastal town… to an island where time itself has gone horribly wrong.A group of unsuspecting teenagers arrive at a deserted hotel expecting nothing more than a getaway — but what they find is something far more twisted.

The year 2025 will forever be remembered as the year of Elis and John. It will be remembered for John's wins and losses, for Elis's car antics. It will be remembered for Tim Key's John snub, for Elis cementing the Cymru Connection into the Welsh psyche. It will be remembered for James Acaster's searing takedowns, for Dave's alarm disaster, and for the four words: 'it was oil again'. As Elis and John set sail into the new year, it's time to look back at the wake of good content they've left behind.

In Don't Forget We're Here Forever (Bloomsbury) Lamorna Ash, author of the coming-of-age memoir cum anthropological study of the Cornish fishing industry Dark, Salt, Clear, visits Evangelical youth festivals, Quaker meetings, a silent Jesuit retreat along the Welsh coastline and a monastic community in the Inner Hebrides to investigate, through interviews and personal reflections, what drives young people in the twenty-first century to embrace Christianity. Poet Seán Hewitt writes ‘Humane, curious and unexpectedly moving, Lamorna Ash's book is as much an account of the human condition as it is an investigation of faith. Quietly radical in its empathy, this is a book I have waited years and years to read, without even knowing it.' Lamorna Ash was in conversation with James Butler, contributing editor at the London Review of Books.

Vaughan Roderick looks back at interviews over the past year. Professor Elwen Evans from Universities Wales came in October, following a year of headlines on the financial challenges facing universities. Professor Kevin Morgan talked about his book, Serving the Nation, and the importance of good public food. On the 100th anniversary of the report of the Irish Border Commission, Cormac Moore discussed the redrawing of the lines that divided the young Irish Free State from Northern Ireland. Ten years after Betsi Cadwaladr Health Board first went in to special measures, current Chief Executive Carol Shillabeer explained what she was doing to try and turn the health board around. Before Lindsay Whittle went on to win the Caerphilly by-election for Plaid Cymru, Sir Deian Hopkin remembered the 1968 election when Plaid Cymru gave Labour a run for its money but ultimately didn't gain the seat in Westminster. And following the publication of her book 'Artists, Siblings, Visionaries', Judith Mackrell illustrated the effects the early death of their mother had on the lives of Welsh-born Gwen and Augustus John.

Join comedians Rachel Fairburn and Kiri Pritchard-McLean as they explore a shared passion, serial killers. Each episode the pair will talk all things murder and macabre and have a right laugh doing it. Merry Christmas and Nadolig Llawen for this very festive Welsh case - Reverend Emyr Owen. While there are no murders per se, the reverend did have a gruesome hobby which caused front page news on Christmas Day, 1984.

Join historian Greg Jenner for a fast-paced, funny and family-friendly journey through the life of Owain Glyndŵr: Wales' legendary rebel leader, lawman, hostage-taker and Merlin superfan. This episode of Dead Funny History is packed with sketch comedy making it perfect for Key Stage 2 learners and their grown-ups.Owain Glyndŵr's story is full of twists. Born into a posh Welsh family, he trained as a lawyer in London before returning home to live the good life. But after years of bad neighbour behaviour from Lord Grey de Ruthyn, and being ignored by King Henry IV, Owain snapped. He declared himself Prince of Wales and led a rebellion that shook the English crown.Expect battles, betrayals and a surprising number of hostages. Owain captured his enemies, held them for ransom, and even turned one prisoner into a son-in-law. He built alliances with France, inspired Welsh students to ditch Oxford, and launched a bold new vision for Wales including its own parliament, universities and laws.But Owain wasn't just a warrior, he was a dreamer. Obsessed with Merlin and Welsh mythology, he became a symbol of national pride. Even after disappearing from history, his legend grew. Today, he's remembered as a hero who fought for Welsh independence and inspired generations.Written by Gabby Hutchinson Crouch, Athena Kugblenu and Dr Emma Nagouse Host: Greg Jenner Performers: Mali Ann Rees and John-Luke Roberts Producer: Dr Emma Nagouse Associate Producer: Gabby Hutchinson Crouch Audio Producer: Emma Weatherill Script Consultant: Dr Kathryn Hurlock Production Coordinator: Liz Tuohy Production Manager: Jo Kyle Sound Designer: Peregrine AndrewsA BBC Studios Production

Lauren Salter and former Wales internationals Gareth Delve and Richie Rees reflect on the weekend's United Rugby Championship results including another win for the Dragons and a derby victory for Scarlets. Dragons climbed off the bottom of the table with a remarkable 48-28 victory over Connacht, ending a 15-month winless streak in the URC. Meanwhile, Scarlets won the first Welsh derby of the festive season after beating Cardiff 21-17 at the Arms Park, but Ospreys suffered a 26-10 defeat at home to Munster, meaning they'll be bottom of the league at Christmas.

Carl Roberts and former Wales internationals Iwan Roberts and Sam Vokes reflect on the weekend's results. Swansea came from behind to beat Wrexham 2-1 in their first league meeting for 22 years. Meanwhile, League One leaders Cardiff were beaten 2-1 away at promotion rivals Lincoln, and bottom-of-the-table Newport County suffered another League Two defeat after losing 4-1 away at Colchester.

This week we talk about our away trip down south to face Swansea City on Friday night, how Arthur moves on from what happened, ask whether our lineup is too defensively minded and where is our next win coming from.We discuss the women's team, how they are getting on in league and cup this season and whether this is their time to shine.We also preview our two games over the festive period against Sheffield United & Preston North End, Ryan teaches us some more Welsh, we read out some of your messages and Siân has a go at this week's festive quiz.If you would like to ‘Buy us a coffee' then check out this link to support the show: buymeacoffee.com/methewifeClick to message the show

Schemes, scams, and spectacularly stupid greed! This special greatest hits episode of History's Greatest Idiots celebrates the season with four legendary criminals who proved that audacity and terrible judgment make the perfect con artist cocktail.First up: Charles Ponzi, the Italian immigrant whose name became synonymous with financial fraud, promising impossible returns while building a house of cards so unstable it makes modern crypto schemes look sophisticated.Then we meet Howard Marks, the Welsh drug smuggler who turned marijuana trafficking into a global enterprise, juggling fake passports, MI6 connections, and enough aliases to confuse even himself before his spectacular arrest.We'll explore John Factor, the mafia conman whose brother founded Max Factor cosmetics while he specialized in extortion and fake kidnappings, somehow parlaying criminal notoriety into Las Vegas respectability.Finally, Melissa Caddick rounds out our line-up: the Australian fraudster whose Ponzi scheme funded designer shoes and luxury living until she vanished, leaving behind one of true crime's most bizarre mysteries.From postal reply coupons to disappearing feet on beaches, these criminal masterminds prove that sometimes the biggest cons collapse when greed meets absolutely zero exit strategy.Join Lev and Derek as they count down the greatest hits of history's most gloriously idiotic fraudsters.Perfect for true crime fans, scam history buffs, and anyone who's ever wondered how someone can be simultaneously brilliant and catastrophically stupid.⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/HistorysGreatestIdiots⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/historysgreatestidiots⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Artist: Sarah Chey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.fiverr.com/sarahchey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Animation: Daniel Wilson⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/wilson_the_wilson/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Music: Andrew Wilson⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/andrews_electric_sheep⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Want to create live streams like this?

In an era where digital landscapes are as much about the cultural zeitgeist as they are about mechanics, GameBurst's "Pick of the Year" special provides a refreshing, if eclectic, snapshot of the 2025 gaming world. From the administrative whimsy of Two Point Museum to the looming cinematic dread of A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead, the panel's selections underscore a medium that remains defiantly varied. Yet, the discussion transcends the screen; the inclusion of craft stouts, Welsh aqueducts, and DJ controllers suggests a community where gaming is merely one thread in a much broader, richer tapestry of modern experience. Whether it is the tactical depth of Galactic Cruise or the haunting design works of Citizen Sleeper, this retrospective celebrates the year's most resonant moments. #gameburst Links: Chris Spargo https://www.youtube.com/@ChrisSpargo F.D Signifier- https://www.youtube.com/@FDSignifire/featured  Garage - https://greenlit.com/project/garage  Urban Shadows https://rpggeek.com/rpg/25371/urban-shadows Pontcysyllte Aqueduct https://www.pontcysyllte-aqueduct.co.uk/

How is Pete preparing his turkey for Christmas dinner this year? By sticking it in the freezer, of course. Pray for his guests, particularly when it sounds like the rest of the day's food is going to be cooked in his airfryer.Elsewhere, and as the title suggests, the lads discuss several tales of food poisoning (unrelated to Pete's cooking, it has to be said), there's a good trip down memory lane discussing old video games and, for some reason, Pete attempted to close out the episode by speaking some Welsh.

On this festive but delightfully off-kilter edition of The Box of Oddities, Kat and Jethro return from an impromptu cruise with a pocketful of overheard conversations, a temporarily abandoned “walking rock,” and the kind of people-watching moments that make you wonder if Thin Mints are actually the glue holding society together. Then Jethro descends—figuratively—into the chilling depths of Sweden's historic Falun copper mine to uncover the true story of Fat Mats, the perfectly preserved miner whose body was found in 1719 after vanishing four decades earlier. Why did he look freshly deceased after 40 years? Why were his legs missing? And how did a simple silver coin become a family heirloom that still survives today? Kat follows with a world-tour of wonderfully unsettling holiday traditions: a rhyming duel with a Welsh dead horse named Mari Lwyd, a frog-eating, piggyback-demanding winter demon lurking in the Balkans, and Frau Perchta—an Alpine holiday enforcer who rewards the tidy and industrious while punishing the lazy with… well, creatively aggressive disembowelment. It's a globe-spanning celebration of strange seasonal folklore, preserved miners, questionable cruise-ship conversations, and precisely the kind of merry madness you've come to expect from The Box of Oddities.
