BBC Sounds, Music, Radio Podcasts.

Hello, you're about to listen to a BBC podcast, and I'm Ed Gamble, host of another BBC podcast, The Traitors Uncloaked.

But my show is available only on BBC Sounds, just like Ellis and John's Saturday bonus episodes,

The Pop Top Ten podcast with Scott Mills and Rylan, and comedy specials

from the likes of Harriet Kemsley, Susie Ruffle and Rommashranganathan.

However, and maybe I'm biased, it's really all about the traitors uncoaked.

So for a whole bunch of exclusive scoops and podcasts, listen only on BBC Sounds.

Well, the Six Nations must be getting closer

because this week the warm-up is coming to you

from the Wales team hotel here at the Vale.

And whilst we would love it to be the case

that the squad selection is the only focus,

once again Wales are going into a tournament

with the off-field uncertainty impacting players, staff, fans and coaches.

More on that in a moment from Alice Jenkins and Alex Ketterbet.

But first things first, imagine a whole range of emotions can flurring back when you walk into this hotel predominantly happy ones?

Yeah, quite a lot of happy ones, a lot of celebrations.

Remember day one coming here, play table tennis against Dan Bigger, I lost 11-0. So everyone knows exactly what happens there. So an event for day one, but I'm not sure if it was quite out of the air list, but some very good memories, yes. No, luckily I was better at table tennis. So, yeah, nothing like that. But yeah, just lots of good memories obviously uh with a fair bit of success

but a lot of really tough training sessions training training camps in you so yeah spent a lot of time

eating food on the on the massage bed getting recovered for the next session and and with the physios

if you miss if you miss it or not i'm not sure i don't know yeah know, yeah, sometimes. Maybe in a sadistic way, maybe.

We've got the training sessions. But not much more time for a trip down memory lane today,
