A heavy chat with the Dragons RFC winger about some really important topics, both on and off the Rugby pitch. Ashton is a clever bloke, articulate in his words, and he's using his platform to speak up on subjects that make people feel uncomfortable, but need talking about. On the field he's still after that Welsh cap, and is fighting fit going in to pre-season this year. 

After a mental few months in Welsh Rugby, it was an interesting chat with the Scarlets Regional boss. He lifts the lid on the last few weeks and talks about what they need for the future, for both the Scarlets, and the WRU...

We can all sit around at the pub with our friends talking about how we'd fix the problems in football or rugby because we pay attention to the details of the sport. But very few make the same effort to their personal finances.

 Like sports we need to get rid of the old and bring in the new, understand that finance today is very different to our parents and theirs. The lessons of simply save no longer hold the financial strength it used to.

Class chat and followed a different format - Jason only retired in the summer and is now playing amateur rugby, but he had so many questions come up on our Instagram and twitter, we thought we would use those as the basis to form our convo. Insightful, no holds barred, both scathing and funny at times - Here's a lad that's seen it all in Welsh Club Rugby

Thanks always Tiny Rebel Brewery and FouFive UK

I won't lie, this was tough to record, and edit back. Dayfdd was a superstar of the Game. Lions 01 (3 Test Starts), one of the top scorers ever in the H-Cup. But since leaving Rugby, he has struggled, and is still struggling. 

I am so grateful for his honesty, and I hope he finds the enjoyment he's looking for. If you ever feel the same, please reach out. 

Thanks always Healthy Hangout, Dragon Signs, Motazone Cwmbran, White Rose Residential and Tiny Rebel Brewery

Mike's book, 'Half Truths' is out now on Amazon, and I highly recommend it! Some of the stories are unreal!

We spoke about his career at both club and international level, and his frustrations around the game he grew up in. Not only a brilliant career with Wales and Lions, but also backed that up at club level too, in Wales, France and England.

Fortunate to steal an hour with one of the most talented Welsh players to have played the game. A man who's skill and ability to play where needed was immense, but maybe hindered an 81 cap test career

Loved the honesty, his outlook not only on playing, but life, the clubs he represented, the silverware won, and his decision to retire on his terms. He's becoming a respected coach in his own right, and a top selling Author too, with his series of books 'Chasing a Rugby Dream'

Thanks always Dragon Signs, Motazone Cwmbran & Tiny Rebel Brewery

Scott is a top bloke, and loving his rugby atm.

Absolutely love the brutal honesty about a heap of topics - Rugby, Wales, Harlequins, Addictions, judging people wrongly, and more! 

Hopefully there's a few messages here people can relate to, and i love how he's evolved and grown as a person, to enjoy his rugby and life the way he wants. 

Thanks always LT Scaffold, Tiny Rebel Brewery, RUME Barbershop, Ron Skinner & Sons, and JBG Group Electrical

Recorded this just before Christmas, and it was not what I was expecting. Ryan opens up about wearing many masks, from the Macho Rugby one, to one now driven by a want to be the best role model possible, to those he cares about. 

This got deep, but in a relatable way, so much of what Ryan said resonated with my own life, and the many suits of armour I wear too. He's so much more than the Grand Slam and title winning captain, the warrior on the pitch, and the chubby kid from Newport!

Thanks to Links Recruitment, Who Knows Wins, LT Scaffold and Tiny Rebel Brewery 

Great chat with JT - He's a funny bloke and easy to see why he's a popular squad member whether that's at the Blues, the Scarlets before, or with Wales. 

Absolutely loves the gritty side of the game, and has a brilliant attitude to training, life, and coaching. He also loves the social side of the game - playing because he loves it, and playing harder after working hard...

Thanks as always to Who Knows Wins, Tiny Rebel Brewery, David W Harris Solicitors and LT Scaffold Services. 

Loved catching up with Sam - Says it how it is, no bullshit, and a funny bloke. Ospreys, Olympic Silver medalist, over 100 Wales 7s tournaments including a stint of being captain, and a few Wales caps - Sam has had a whirlwind career so far, with many highs and lows. 

Great to see his personality come through, a passion for not only being the best player he can be, but also keeping his feet on the ground when things have gone well. This coupled with taking the losses in his stride too, means his outlook on life is pretty good. 

Big thanks as always Tiny Rebel Brew Co, Who Knows Wins, and LT Scaffold Services. 

I don't even know where to begin with this chat. I could have spoken to Moff for another 3 hours. We spoke about his new venture Rugby Rules, and how it may challenge the other codes. 

We also spoke about his time at NZRU, NRL, WRU and the creation of the Regions, and in all honesty, we could have gone in to even more detail in some of those orgs!

He doesn't hold back, and we may have to get him on for another Ep!

Loved catching up with my old pal Lee Byrne. His positivity and desire to win, despite having some setbacks in life, is inspiring, and I love he's giving back now with his work around Dyslexia, post Rugby. 

Some career on the field - Lions 09, Wales, World Cups, Scarlets, Ospreys and Dragons, and a great stint at Clermont too (Not forgetting Bridgend Athletic ;)

And some headlines off it too, but he doesn't regret a thing...

When we sat down, I was expecting a chat about rugby careers and funny stories...What I got was a man looking to open up about the reality of his world then and now;

- Stinky, the fun loving Rugby player people knew from the Dragons, Scarlets, Wales, and having those heart attacks.

- Rhys Thomas, the man fighting drink and drug addictions, a family man who lost his way, and who's building the foundations of a better life. 

I have never had a more honest and raw conversation with anyone, maybe ever. Thanks to Tiny Rebel Brewery (Ironic) and @BloomsEats on Insta

Real down to earth chat with Josh - Everything from his Rugby journey, to Netflix, snacks in Lockdown, future aspirations and so much more! The last few years have been a whirlwind for him, so it's refreshing to hear how grounded he is and how much he enjoys life.

Thanks always Tiny Rebel Brew Co for the beers, and @BloomsEats for everything else! 

Enjoyed catching up with ex UWIC Uni mate, Dolly. He's been at the Chiefs now for over 10 years, coming up with them from the Championship, and an ever present throughout their Premiership and European campaigns too. 

I love the culture and the environment he described down at Sandy Park, and it's interesting hearing about his stint at the Dragons, and almost Wales too.

What a fascinating episode. I first saw Andries playing rugby for Cardiff Blues and Wales, but my first real interaction with him was watching him give a talk at a Business breakfast - Mental Health, unlocking your potential personally and professionally, transitional skills and what Business & Sport can learn from each other.

Whether you love Rugby, personal & professional development, or mindsets of successful individuals, this episode is inspiring, and you'll hopefully take away some ideas to impact your life for the better.
