In this episode of Jonathan X, Jonathan Davies sits down with Welsh international James Hook - two men who both wore the famous No.10 jersey at different stages of their careers - for a powerful trip down memory lane.

Hook reflects on the golden era of Welsh rugby, when Grand Slams, packed stadiums and genuine belief defined a generation. From Lions tours and Test match pressure to the brutal standards of elite camp life, he opens up on what it really takes to steer a team at fly-half on the biggest stage. The conversation dives into the talent pipeline that once produced wave after wave of Welsh stars - and asks the tough questions about where the regions stand today. Of course, they don’t shy away from the Ospreys saga either, and discuss what it means for the future of the game in Wales.

Along the way, there are classic Hook stories: the versatility that saw him play almost every backline position, the freedom he thrived on as a maverick playmaker, and the mindset required to handle the highs of Grand Slam glory and the reality that rugby careers move fast. Insightful and honest, this is a conversation about legacy, leadership and where Welsh rugby goes next.

In Episode 12 of Jonathan X, Jonathan Davies sits down with Wales international rugby powerhouse Lou Reed - a larger-than-life character whose journey to the top of the game is anything but ordinary. Lou reflects on the burning ambition that drove him to wear the Welsh jersey and compete at the highest level of international rugby.

He opens up about what it really feels like to reach the summit - the pride, the pressure, and the moment you realise the view from the top doesn’t last forever. Lou speaks candidly about the importance of staying grounded when success comes calling, and how quickly the game can humble you.

Known as much for his quick wit as much as his "massive" presence on the field, Lou’s stories - from brutal training camps to unforgettable Test match moments - will have you laughing one minute and reflecting the next. A powerful, funny and surprisingly vulnerable conversation. This one is not to be missed.
