Exploring “Nestor,” the second episode of Ulysses, we think about teaching as farce and learning as historical trauma and collaboration. We listen to a conversation between students at Caffè Strada, Berkeley, and we talk with three guests: Garvan Corkery, a lawyer from Cork, Ireland; Robert Spoo, Chapman Professor of Law at the University of Tulsa; and Jeffrey Nishimura, Chair of English at Los Angeles City College. Along the way, we talk about Jewish migration to Cork and Joycean reading groups in Los Angeles.
