This week on Welsh Waves...
Today I’m joined by Evan Williams. Evan is a 22 year old athlete from Bridgend who is currently playing American College Football for Missouri State Western in America. Evan started his sporting life as a rugby player, but through a series of very extraordinary events, found himself converting to a sport he’d never played before…and ends up doing it at an extremely high level.
Although the chances are slim, it isn’t impossible to think Evan could find himself in the NFL one day but remarkably he wouldn't be the first Welshman to do it, I’ll find out more about the others in another episode, but until then…here’s my interview with the only Welshman playing American collegiate football right now…
I really enjoyed this interview, I hope you will too.
Welsh Waves Podcast
My name’s Cai Morgan and this is Welsh Waves. I’ve always been curious as to where Wales fits in in the world and in this podcast I hope to find out the answer. I’ll be doing this by exploring our culture, sport and language with some special guests- folk who I believe are shaping our future on the global stage.
I’ll also offer the odd essay episode which you might enjoy, something a little different where I’m going to do some solo-deep dives into some Cymru history and culture.

Diolch!
