Episode description

Join me for a walk through Titanic Quarter in Belfast, where my family I spent four glorious days back in August. I wish I could teleport back to the bar at Titanic Hotel right this instant. An old-fashioned. The halls of Harland and Wolff. It was a magical time.

In this episode I walk through the history of Harland and Wolff shipyard both literally and figuratively. I give some commentary on the stunning achievements of Titanic Belfast, the museum at the center of the Quarter. You'll hear my daughter set the record straight about her name and where she is in the first class lounge of Titanic tender ship Nomadic. And most importantly, I pay homage to the men who built this ship.

For more info on Belfast and Thomas Andrews, I recommend you look back at Gareth Russell's book Ship of Dreams.
