Declan Kiberd, famed Irish public intellectual and Shinjini and Eric’s professor at Notre Dame, joins the Three Friends for what was originally a “Calypso” episode but eventually becomes an episode about three episodes of Ulysses: one Declan loves, one he hates, and one he doesn’t get. Does everyone agree? Do your favorite and least favorite make the list?
There’s also a lot of Bob Dylan talk.
