What, no iGuinness?

The podcast bandwagon keeps on keepin' on with the creation of "iWalks" of Dublin, created by--natch--the Dublin tourism board. There are plans for eleven tours in total, although only two are available at the moment. The walks are narrated by historian Pat Liddy--apparently Frank McCourt wasn't available--who also penned accompanying maps and illustrations.

While this is an exciting idea, part of the charm of podcasts is getting the "alternative" history of place, and it unlikely that the tourism board will provide it. Maybe Shane MacGowan?
