Whose Coat is that Jacket?

You know the feeling - it's like when the Birdie Song comes on the radio and you can't resist singing (and dancing) along. Or when the only thing that'll hit that spot is a pot noodle and a whole packet of custard creams. Or when you come across an old episode of El Dorado and you Just Can't Stop Watching! It's more than a guilty pleasure, you're powerless in the face...

We’re all going on a summer holiday, no more working for a week or twoooo… That’s enough of Cliff, thank you! But it is nearly that time of year, the holibobs are approaching, so Rhianydd and Morgan turn their thoughts this week to the ideal holiday. Will it be a boutique hotel where you can sit by the pool sipping cocktails and listening to your favourite episode of WCITJ (on headphones of course...

We think everyone would agree that there’s a lot wrong with the world at the moment. And wouldn’t it all be a lot better if you were in charge? Yes you! Think of all the sensible policies you could enact to make the world a happier place! Such as banning the socks and sandals combo. Or bringing back the death penalty for playing jazz in a public place. Or free wine for the over 40s. So this week M...

WARNING... POTTY MOUTH ALERT! Did your mother ever threaten to wash your mouth out with soap and water?  Do you frequently drop the f-bomb, or even (on occasion and only when called for) the c-bomb? Are you team Malcolm Tucker, or team Mary Whitehouse (Google ‘em if you’re under 40!)? What are we effing talking about now? Well, it’s sw*&ring of course! Yes, this week, Morgan and Rhianydd are d...

In an episode we recorded before the most recent gob-smacking revelations about the prince formerly known as Andrew, this week we delve into the age-old question of is it worth having a royal family? Are they fundamentally different to normal mortals, or are they just the same as us but rolled in glitter?  What, if anything, do they contribute to the country and would the whole shebang collapse if...

Do you know all the words to Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau? Have you ever seen Tom Jones live? Have you got a tattoo of your mam’s bara brith recipe? Did you go to school with any of the following?: Kelly Jones Ioan Gruffudd Gareth Bale Michael Sheen Ruth Jones Owain Glyndŵr Merlin God (yes, she is Welsh!) If you answered ‘yes’ to any of the above questions, chances are you’re WELSH, so well done, da iawn, y...

It’s a many-splendoured thing.  It’s all you need. It’s like oxygen. Rhianydd feels it in her fingers and - strangely - Morgan feels it in his toes. What are we talking about? Well it’s LUURRRVE of course!  What is it? Why do we feel it? How many kinds are there?  Join Morgan and Rhianydd as we ponder this one out, sharing our insights and marvelling at the wisdom of those clever buggers the ancie...

Following last episode’s bombshell announcement that Morgan wants to be less of a people pleaser and more of a people dis pleaser, happily going around telling people exactly what he thinks of them, this week we ask the question...  ‘Is it ever ok to lie?’ From teeny-tiny white lies through to humongous whoppers that make your nose grow longer than a Valleys terrace, we consider the pros and cons...

Happy New Year everyone!, or as we say in Wenglish, “‘Appy New Yer, But!” So it’s January again - a time for reflection; a time for plans and promises; a time for standing on the bathroom scales and silently weeping. And as Morgan and Rhianydd emerge blinking into the grey light of dawn from their Christmas debaucheries it’s time to consider what 2026 holds in store, whether it’s getting fit, chan...

Deck the halls with boughs of holly, God rest ye merry gentlemen, We’re walking in the air... It’s Chriiiiiissstmaaaaaaaaas!  Yes, the season of joy and good cheer is upon us once again and it’s gone all Dickensian in WCITJ Towers as Morgan Cratchitt and Rhianydd Scrooge meet once again over a thimbleful of eggnog to share a box of chocolate-covered sprouts and put the world to rights.  This Yulet...

As winter draws in and we put our winter drawers on, Rhianydd and Morgan like to gather round the fire to tell each other stories that have been handed down for generations (or more likely we’ve just found on the interweb). It’s an age-old human need, to banish the cold and dark with tales of long ago; tales of gods, monsters, princesses, knights in shining armour and bloody huge dogs with big sha...

Was life better B what? What are these whimsical Welsh wallies on about now?  Well, for the uninformed, ‘BI’ = Before Internet!  You’d have to be over thirty (or possibly even as old as Morgan and Rhianydd) to remember such halcyon days: days when if you wanted to find something out you had to … look in a book!; days when if you wanted to buy cinema tickets you had to … go and queue up!; days when...

Imagine the scene - you and five of your all time heroes gathered round the dinner table for a night of good food, good company and - hopefully - good wine. Ahh, bliss… Who would be on your list?: Elvis? Obama? Attenborough?  But hang on, does Elvis give a good-god-damn about the environment? Could you sit Lady Gaga and Marilyn Monroe together or would they end up clawing each-other’s eyes out? It...

Whhoooooooo, it’s that time of year again, when the nights draw in, spirits walk abroad and Rhianydd gets her sprouts on in time for Christmas. Interestingly this episode was recorded as Spring had sprung, bringing with it fresh new life and growth which got Rhianydd to thinking about death!!! So as Halloween approaches, what better time to unleash this episode. If you’re ga-ga about ghouls, soft...

One, two, three, four, five! Senses working overtime!  Who else here is old enough to remember this 1982 XTC classic?  Or is it just us? Up for discussion with Rhianydd and Morgan this week is the vexed question of which sense you could live without (and ‘common sense’ doesn’t count since one of us doesn’t have very much of that anyway…). Could you stand never again setting eyes on such wonders as...

Remember that film? Yes you do - the one with Gwyneth Paltrow and the bloke off Four Weddings, where our Gwynnie misses a train and her life takes a different turn? Yes, that one! This week Morgan and Rhianydd consider those moments where things could have happened SO differently, from ballsed-up auditions to stupid decisions and more. Are we self-saboteurs? Do we make our own luck? Or are we at t...

University of Oxford, or University of Life? A degree in Philosophy and Economics, or a diploma in Ducking and Diving? School of Hard Knocks, or … well, you get the picture by now!  Yes, this week’s ‘WCITJ’ question is Are you book smart, or street smart ? Morgan and Rhianydd get together again to consider whether it’s worth having a brain the size of a planet if you need help to cross the road, o...

Money? Success? Just a really massive glass of wine? The brand new podcast ‘Whose Coat Is That Jacket’ asks the question, What makes you happy?  Lifelong friends Rhianydd and Morgan get together to explore this age-old question and their choices are surprisingly simple (although we can’t guarantee it doesn’t involve alcohol). Cwtch up and tune in to hear our thoughts, as well as our cultural highl...

Actor and singer Morgan James and teacher and writer Rhianydd Biebrach have been friends since nursery school in the Welsh Valleys. Fashions and hairstyles may have changed (or disappeared!) through the years, and life has taken them in different directions, but their friendship has stood the test of time.  Now, in their middle-aged prime, they are getting together once again to ponder some of lif...
