Draw Breath

Good to see RTÉ Radio finally catching up with the podcasting phenomenon. Their site has been a pain for a while so the new look is a breath of fresh air.

That said: what to listen to? Much of RTÉ Radio is most definitely for the background. It's not really hold-back-for-later stuff. That said, there are some real gems here. For instance the wonderful Icons of Irish Science. Also, I haven't listened to Speaking Ill of the Dead but might give it a go. The only criticism is that high quality programmes are missing from the podcasts page. Most unfortunate to miss the trick of making the thing comprehensive.
