It's Not Unusual: Sean Williams & Whisgi Cymreig
In 1887, when Alfred Barnard published his seminal guide to the The Whisky Distilleries of the United Kingdom, he catalogued 129 Scottish distilleries, 28 Irish ditstilleries and four English distilleries.There were no Welsh distilleries.And yet, says Sean Williams host of the Wisgi Wales Podcast and founder of Wales Whisky Fest and the Welsh Whisky Society, "distilling can allegedly trace its roots to Wales; to north wales; to a little place called Bardsey Island, where the monks - you know, in myth - distilled a distilate which was pretty much aqua vitae or new make...

Plus, we share our final highlights from the 2019 edition of the London Film Festival.Non Fiction begins when an affair between actress Selena (that’s Juliette Binoche) and writer Léonard (Vincent Macaigne) is nearly discovered thanks to Léonard’s recent thinly veiled autobiographical novel. Fortunately, Alain (Guillaume Canet), who is both Selena’s husband and Léonard’s publisher, rejects the book, remaining oblivious to the whole ordeal, maybe because he’s having his own affair as well.
