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 Stephen Guerrero from BBC Radio Wales.

Hello there, thank you very much for downloading this week's Scrum Five Podcast.

Producer Dav is away today recording a few other things.

So me and Martin are in a room in the BBC on our own which I don't

know if it's good or bad I have no idea even if this is recording any technical

problems are purely down to me.

From today so any complaints just tweet us at BBC Scrum v.

Hopefully this all goes well and hopefully you'll be hearing some of it as well

Hopefully it records and we'll talk about

fall at a town we'll have a look at James Davis and whether he can push on to get selected for Wales

why you never get selected for Wales

and why he's staying in Wales with the scarlets we'll have a look at Quaid

Cooper whether he'll be coming to the Dragons and we'll go through the past weekend's Champions Cup and Challenge Cup and

look ahead to another weekend of European action.
