EditorComedy duo hit Swansea and Gower in new Pod of Wales travel series
Kiri Pritchard‑McLean and Esyllt Sears return for a third season of their travel‑meets‑comedy podcast, showcasing hidden gems across Cymru with their signature mix of banter, belly laughs and local love.
The Swansea & Gower episode sees the pair sample surfing in Caswell Bay, tuck into tapas at El Pescador, and explore the revamped Albert Hall food hall — which Kiri admits she’d never visited before.
