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!

I am listening as an accompaniment to the Ulysses class at the Rosenbach Museum in Philly (where the original manuscript lives!) this is so helpful…many insights and questions. Thanks!
I have always been intimidated by Ulysses but these three podcasters make me feel that I CAN read it and their conversations continue to give me the tools to read it well. Fantastic podcast.
Lovely mix of playfulness and erudition. I read this book back in college, and listening has brought back fond memories.
