Ulysses Ep. 18 Penelope: "O Lord I wanted to shout all sorts of things"

Wendy leads Eric and Shinjini through a discussion of the first third of “Penelope,” or at least the first chunk of the episode to fall out of her decaying Gabler edition. They discuss: 

• The episode’s style and structure

• The Blooms’ marriage

• Sex on public transit

• And, of course, all the naughty bits

Libations:

• Eric: Panic Button (cherry sour, Monday Night Brewing, Atlanta, GA)

• Wendy: Discipline (dubbel Belgian ale, Bold Monk Brewing, Atlanta, GA)

• Shinjini: surprisingly good non-Darjeeling Indian black tea
