You're about to listen to a BBC podcast and I'd like to tell you a bit about the

podcast I work on. I'm Dan Clark and I commissioned factual podcasts at the BBC.

It's a massive area but I'd sum it up as stories to help us make sense of the forces shaping the world.

What podcasting does is give us the space and the time to take brilliant BBC journalism

and tell amazing compelling stories that really get behind the headlines.

And what I get really excited about is when we find a way of drawing you into a subject

you might not even have thought you were interested in.

Whether it's investigations, science, tech, politics, culture, true crime, the environment,

you can always discover more with a podcast on BBC Sounds.

You're listening to BBC Sounds. Hello,

welcome to the Scrant5 Podcast, Califree,

here with Nicki Robinson and Hadley Parks,

because there's an announcement to give you today

Hadley's confirming that he's on his way to Japan 29 caps for Wales five tries and

Hadley I'll let you fill in the details, yeah.

Yeah, no, thank you very much, Garrett, for that.

It's been a bit of a process, bit of a long decision,

but one that my wife and I with little Ruby as well we've come to and

we're quite excited for it and on the other hand very sad as well to be

leaving to be leaving Wales the place that Wales is a place that's been so good.

People have been so wonderful to us and Rugby's gone extremely well over here.

We love living here, but it's a decision that we're excited about and we're looking forward to a new adventure as a young family and immersing ourselves in what should be a pretty cool couple of years in Japan.
