Description

Eric leads Wendy and Shinjini through a second episode breaking down the subconscious of Ulysses in "Circe." They discuss Bloom's gender identity as the new womanly man, joy in the body, and Stephen's Telemachian interactions with various potential mentors throughout the day.
Mentions:

The final episode of HBO's The White Lotus, season 1, in which a character evinces Ulyssean joy in the body and defecation, although according to Shinjinii, that one scene doesn't make the show worth watching
My Dad Wrote a Porno—an inspiration for tipsyturvy Ulysses that surprisingly illustrates similarly exaggerated misunderstandings of female anatomy, albeit for different reasons

Libations:

Eric: Ever Clever (double IPA, Bearded Iris Brewing, Nashville, TN)

Wendy: Smilin' Eyes, Vol. 2 (dry Irish stout, Wild Heaven Beer, Avondale Estates, GA)

Shinjini: nothing, because we recorded too late for caffeine

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.
