What’s it like going from crowds to cows? Can you join Young Farmers if you’re not a farmer? Is Rugby Union better than Rugby League?

In episode 9, we join rugby referee legend Nigel Owens at his home in Wales to talk all things rugby and farming.

We delve into the highlights of his career, the switch from sport to agriculture and hear what it’s like to be a gay man in both industries.

Plus, we find out how to say Boots and Heels in Welsh!
