In recent months a new force has emerged in the online world. Meet the 'Guinfluencerâ - Fans of the stout who review pints, comment on âdomageâ and âshtickâ among other characteristics the black beverage holds.

Why now, and what does that mean for the future of the company and its St Jamesâs Gate brewery? Host; FionnĂĄn Sheahan, Guests; Donal OâDonovan and Turtle Bunbury

HMS Maidstone, an ex-Royal Navy Ship, was used in the early 1970s to hold internees. In January 1972, a group of IRA prisoners swam 270 meters through an ice-cold Belfast Lough in a bid to escape, greasing themselves in butter to squeeze out of the shipâs portholes. They then hijacked a double-decker bus before slipping across the border, humiliating the authorities.
Todayâs Indo Daily comes from our sister podcast âThe BelTelâ. CiarĂĄn Dunbar is joined by James Durney, author of âJailbreak: Great Irish Republican escapesâ.
