Long-promised, finally delivered! No, Toby and TJ didn't get their Finnegans Wake tattoos yet (it might happen one day), but we are finally back to talk about half of WAKE's epic visit to Ireland! Listen to the audio podcast but also hop on over to YouTube to enjoy the first-ever visual WAKE, complete with the kind of holiday slideshow you might remember from your childhood, complete with one-sided narration and images of somewhere you didn't go. Toby discusses his favourite stops in Ireland, through Dublin, Kildare, Cork, Dingle, Limerick, Clare, and Galway, and all the amazing people he met along the way. Before we get there, though, join us through a rollicking discussion of classic literature, Pulitzer Prize winners, Hamlet's 'to be' speech, and plenty more. We are so glad to be back!
