Description

February 2 is the birthday of Ulysses, James Joyce, tipsyturvy Ulysses, and one of our hosts! Coincidence? Ulysses is 101, tipsyturvy Ulysses is 1, and we won't specify anyone else's ages. To maintain that ratio of 101 to 1, if our podcast is as successful as Ulysses and is still listened to and discussed at the age of 101 in 2123, Ulysses will be obliged to be 10,201 years old and have been published in 8078 BCE. (Those of you who have read ahead to "Ithaca" are more likely to appreciate this joke.)
In this episode, Wendy, Eric, and Shinjini reflect on podcasting about Ulysses for a year, learning more about the novel and podcasting in the process, and having so much fun together. Fingers crossed it's not too self-indulgent!
Thanks for joining us to celebrate Ulysses this past year, and we look forward to continuing to do so with you!

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. Grab a beverage and join us!
