Description

“At it again” indeed. Wendy, Shinjini, and Eric revisit the "Nausicaa" episode but not before Eric exorcizes a few Cyclopian ghosts. Wendy leads the episode and goes rogue by selecting the themes she loves and hates rather than the extracts. This leads to a passionate defense of Gerty MacDowell, a titillating discussion of female pleasure and fantasy, and the friends "getting angry at all the right things." Join them for an in-depth discussion of love and lurid literature that might just be a bit “cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo.”

Mentions - “Why you couldn’t eat something p5oetical like violets or roses”

What in God’s name is a currant?
Black currants and red currants? Now it’s just getting silly.

Three friends, and an occasional guest, talk about the fun bits of James Joyce's Ulysses over a beer, episode by episode. In each episode, we—Eric, Wendy, and Shinjini—will explore the parts of Ulysses we love, the parts we hate, and the parts we are downright confused by. Love it. Hate it. Don’t Get it.
