Kelly and Dermot talk dogs, specifically Tatters, the dog encountered by Stephen on the strand at Sandymount. Topics include Joyce's belief that the dog is the most protean creature, Tatters' many forms on the seashore, cocklepickers then and now, seamorse, heraldry, Stephen's many phobias, reincarnation, sea gods, the ninth wave, pards, the Buddha-nature of a dog, cameos by Nicolas Cage and Peter Falk, Tatters as a muse, Tatters as a Zen master, Stephen's struggle with duality, Stephen's creative inspiration, urination,  and why Dermot thinks the medievals are great (not stupid). Sweny's Patreon helps keep this marvelous Dublin landmark alive.
