Eric, Wendy, and Shinjini grapple with the most difficult episode of Ulysses so far: “Proteus.” They sympathize with Stephen’s mad ambitions and imposter syndrome, celebrate his occasional, accidental artistic success, and rue his occasional fear and cruelty.
Highlights include some urine talk (a preview for next episode) and a joke we creatively cut around.

Ulysses Ep. 4: Calypso: "Mrkgnao!"

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.
