Will Smith is coming to Cardiff this summer, so our own Fresh Prince @JasonMohammad puts a spin on one of his iconic tunes 🎵
First Royal Welsh Show & biggest career challenge yet ✅ Weeks of solo planning, 5 long days, 4 special Radio Wales programmes produced, 3 presenter challenges & one big political story. Knackered, but it’s opportunities like these that remind me why I love my job. 📻🎙️🏴


A misty start here at the Royal Welsh Show in Llanelwedd, where @jamswilliams85 will be presenting Radio Wales Breakfast all week…. And he’s already made some friends! Join him 7-9 Monday-Thursday - we’ve got lots in store for you. Listen on here: bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00…

I just want to say that #oasislive25 is one of the most incredible things I've seen live. Was genuinely in tears for bits of it, felt like a huge cultural moment. If you have tickets you're in for a fucking treat.
As a Cardiff boy and @oasis fan - so looking forward to hosting this with @TinaDaheley on Friday ahead of the @principalitysta gig. See you there. #oasislive25 #cardiff

A one off stint on the other side of the glass this evening, reading the news on Radio Wales Drive instead of producing the programme.🎙️📻🏴

Adam Jones is how every Welsh fan feels right now 😫 #rugby #WALvENG #SixNations

UNIFIED! 👑 Lauren Price OUTCLASSES Natasha Jonas at Royal Albert Hall to become WBC, IBF and WBA welterweight champion! 🏴
Cliché end of year round up post, but it’s the only time I ever truly look at how far I’ve come. First TV report aired, first by-line published & first time working a Six Nations campaign instead of watching as a fan. Grateful for another year of ticking off career goals ✨🫶🏼

There will never be anything like it ever again. 17 years of incredible Welsh TV. ❤️ #GavinandStacey
Oh, we’re not crying, you are 👆 That’s a wrap 🥹 Watch the last ever episode of #GavinandStacey on #iPlayer NOW!
Oh my Christ, the ending we all wanted. That really is it 🥲 #GavinAndStacey
No words for our performance this afternoon so far. There’s just no discipline & to put it simply, we are awful. #WALvAUS
