Educator & podcaster Tony Holt Jr continues his thoughts on Ralph Ellison’s essays; Shadow and Act this week!

This massive conversation had to be split in two (all Patreon supporters had both parts two weeks ago), but this week in part 2, Tony & Mike’s discussion on Ellison’s writing style continues! They delve deeper into specific essays and how they bring forward often overlooked perspectives, including some in Harlem. The duo also talk about how short a time it’s been since the major developments in the Civil Rights era around the 1960s and even the 13th Amendment from around 100 years prior.

Their first Ellison discussion on GCC was in ep 260 (February 2025) delving deep into Ellison’s most famous written work; Invisible Man.

Educator & podcaster Tony Holt Jr returns to GCC to talk about the first of Ralph Ellison’s essays; Shadow and Act!

This massive conversation had to be split in two (all Patreon supporters already have it in full), but this week in part 1, Tony & Mike discuss Ellison’s writing style and the value & timelessness of the essays. The two come from different perspectives (Tony: a Black American and Mike: a White Englishman) and not only discuss how a healthy dialogue can be made, but also spend their time deconstructing the meaning and value of such discussions and the work of these essays, both on specific parts and on the overall themes within. Although we encourage you to read these essays, they are not essential to enjoying this incredibly important discussion on one of the 20th Century’s most talented and prolific authors.

Their first Ellison discussion on GCC was in ep 260 (February 2025) delving deep into Ellison’s most famous written work; Invisible Man.

Part 2 will release in two weeks, but if you want early access, as well as bonus episodes, including extra episodes for Spooky Season, including the Candyman and the Scooby-Doo movies, and more! Support at www.patreon.com/GenuineChitChat or https://ko-fi.com/GenuineChitChat

In this episode, Dave, Maff & Mike delve into the three Tales Of The Jedi episodes focusing on (Count) Dooku: Justice which features a young Qui-Gon and Dooku slipping into the dark side, Choices where Dooku goes on a mission with Mace Windu and his distrust of the Republic becomes clearer and The Sith Lord where Yaddle follows Dooku after he is distraught following the death of Qui-Gon Jinn. Maff & Mike also mention elements of the audio drama Dooku: Jedi Lost, by Cavan Scott and how it ties in!

Author & podcaster Seth Singleton joins Mike to dive deep into the question; why do we write?

Although Seth & Mike have many mutual friends, this is their first podcast together! In more detail; Seth & Mike talk about getting in one’s own way and “the cost of failure”, tying into how introspection helped Seth get through certain failures, before talking about what started Seth on his writing journey and why he continues to write. The duo discuss Seth’s contributions to Comics Lit and Anachronistic Comics and many projects Seth writes, or has written for, including writing comics for kids such as Hapsie or Spellcasters, and so much more – this is an incredibly introspective, yet inspiring, conversation that’s perfect for any level of writer or people who want to be motivated to create more!

We’ve made it to the end of The Clone Wars and what a finale to discuss!

The final season has concluded; almost two years of watching has culminated to this moment, and there is so much to talk about! As well as expectations and a recap on the disappointment of the Ahsoka’s Walkabout arc, our trio dive deep into the final four episodes of The Final Season of The Clone Wars, with The Siege Of Mandalore (showing Ahsoka’s duel with Maul) and the inevitable Order 66 and how Ahsoka & Rex get through it (to show up in Rebels years later). Throughout this, Mike drops lore and answers questions while Dave & Maff talk about their thoughts on the finale.

The previous CWC episode focused on Ahsoka’s Walkabout and the unreleased episode concepts while the prior release was about the premiere of The Bad Batch and the episodes before that were on Christie Golden’s novel Dark Disciple, the Son of Dathomir comic and the Crystal Crisis unreleased episodes.

We dive into the middle of the final season of the Clone Wars, where Ahsoka does… some things!

The final season is upon us! Clone Wars Conversations’ continues with episodes 5-8 of Season 7, making up “Ahsoka’s Walkabout” arc, taking a very different direction to the prior 4 episodes, where battling on the front lines is swapped out for family politics on Level 1313 of Coruscant!

In detail, our trio talk about the somewhat infamous lull of Season 7, centring around Ahsoka meeting the Martez sisters. Amidst their run-through of the four episodes, they talk about the narrative choices, the Pykes, Ahsoka’s journey & growth and whether or not this is essential viewing for her character and the season 7 finale. Along the way, Mike provides extra content & lore dumps and how these episodes compare to the previous 6 seasons.

The previous CWC focused on the premiere of The Bad Batch and the episode before that was Christie Golden’s novel Dark Disciple!

We dive into the premiere of the final season of the Clone Wars, introducing The Bad Batch!

The final season is upon us! Clone Wars Conversations’ delves into the first four episodes of Season 7, making up The Bad Batch arc, introducing an unusual group of clone troopers (Clone Force 99) and their interactions with Rex, Obi-Wan and Anakin!

In detail, our trio talk about how they found the start of Season 7 (given it’s been over 10 years since Season 6), especially noting the animation style. On top of this, they delve into thoughts on the Clones, especially the new characters who make up the Bad Batch and their thoughts on the spin-off/follow-on series (which Mike has seen all of, but Dave & Maff have not). Along the way, Mike provides extra content & lore dumps and how these episodes compare to the previous 6 seasons.

We dive into Asajj Ventress’ unreleased Clone Wars arc; Dark Disciple by Christie Golden!

Clone Wars Conversations’ final Legacy Multimedia Project episode is about the novel that concludes Asajj Ventress’ time in The Clone Wars era, featuring Quinlan Vos, Obi-Wan, Dooku and more.

In detail, our trio talk about their experiences with the audiobook of Dark Disciple (narrated by Marc Thompson), how the story fits into the Clone Wars content they’ve already consumed and how it changes their perception of Ventress as a character.

The Forbidden Worlds Film Festival reviews conclude with 1962’s Japanese Moby Dick adaptation; The Whale God

Mike & Spider-Dan delve into the 1962 kaiju/Moby Dick movie The Whale God, which Mike was hugely looking forward to watching but it has some controversial topics within – although it’s not gratuitous, note the sexual assault trigger warning.

Neither Mike or Dan had seen or heard of this movie before, due to its non-existent UK release, so they were excited to watch it on an IMAX screen at Forbidden Worlds – they review the movie in-depth, talking about the plot, dialogue and kaiju for the first 30 minutes, then give the trigger warning and discuss the sexual assault scenes and the plot implications & character reactions that follow.

Although this is the last review, Mike & Dan still have some interviews to release, so keep an eye out for those before GCC returns to the more regular interview-style pods!

Make sure you check out their reviews of Battle Beyond The Stars, Orca & She Creature on this feed, and check out Spider-Dan’s feed for the other half of their reviews, including Waterworld, The City Of Lost Children, Tremors and more!

Clone Wars Conversations continues with the Legacy Multimedia Project, where content was released from unused Clone Wars episodes following the show’s cancellation in 2014, and in this episode Dave, Maff & Mike delve into the 4-issue comic series Darth Maul: Son Of Dathomir!

Our trio discuss each issue in-depth, provide additional context & lore, and talk about how much they enjoyed the comics and if they’re necessary for the overall story of The Clone Wars.

Darth Maul: Son Of Dathomir was written by Jeremy Barlow with penciller Juan Frigeri, inker Mauro Vargas and colour artist Wes Dzioba, and was published by Dark Horse in 2014 and re-published by Marvel in 2017.

Mike is honoured to welcome Anthony D Holt Jr (Tony Holt), to talk about the relevance of Ralph Ellison’s 1962 novel Invisible Man to today’s society, what we can learn and why Tony wrote an essay comparing it to Black Panther!

You don’t need to read Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison to understand what is discussed in this conversation (although it will bring additional context), as the duo talk about code-switching, the power of understanding someone else’s perspective, identity (both cultural and individual) and Tony’s essay comparing Invisible Man to the 2018 Black Panther run by Ta-Nehisi Coates from Comics Lit Volume 1. Mike & Tony also talk about Tony’s home city of Detroit, other works by Ellison and so much more – this conversation is important to every person on this planet.

Although Tony doesn’t have social media, you can find his notable releases and podcast appearances at https://linktr.ee/tonyholtjr

Tony mentioned a few things in this conversation, including;
Ta-Nehisi Coates’ 2018 Black Panther run; The Intergalactic Empire of Wakanda and his book Between the World and Me.
Detroit: I Do Mind Dying, A Study In Urban Revolution by Dan Georgakas & Marvin Surkin.
The podcast The Prof G Pod with Scott Galloway.
The Detroit-based producer J Dilla and the book about him called Dilla Time by Dan Charnas – since recording, a street in Detroit was officially renamed J Dilla Street, details here: https://hiphopdx.com/news/j-dilla-street-renaming-detroit-common-questlove

It’s Genuine Chit-Chat’s 250th episode, and for this momentous occasion, Mike has invited two of his favourite people; Tonya Todd and Tony (A.R.) Farina, to talk about their recent book; Comics Lit Volume 1, which is a essay collection with a foreword by Bryan Edward Hill, and essays by Alyson Shelton, Eric Lee, Kelly Gaines, Seth Singleton, AA McCartney, Heath Fodor, A.R. Farina, Tonya Todd and Anthony D. Holt Jr.

In more detail, Mike and T&T talk about where the idea for Comics Lit came from and it’s journey from there to being published. They talk about getting Bryan Edward Hill on board, and then talk about the collaboration with the other contributors, and how many of the essays evolved over time. The trio also discuss the editing & ordering process and the future volumes of Comics Lit, as well as the content within many of the essays and how important it is for comics to be considered high art alongside prose writing.

This week Mike speaks with Louise; the second alter from the Doug Vincent System to appear on GCC, to explain how the alters within the system have used the MBTI Personality Test to better understand themselves and their roles.

In more detail, Louise starts by speaking about her “awakening” within the system, before answering some questions from you (the lovely GCC audience) about DID, including alters “switching” control over the body.
Louise then provides an in-depth explanation about what the MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) is, how it was created, what the letters actually mean and how their system utilizes it for the different alters.Mike also took the test and is a Protagonist (ENFJ-A), with the “Diplomat” role and his strategy is “People Mastery” – he explains his results in more detail and he & Louise discuss what they mean. Louise also prepared a quiz for Mike where he guesses which Star Wars and Marvel characters would have what type of MBTI personality – listen to the entire conversation to hear the results!

To do the personality test yourself, completely for free, visit www.16personalities.com

Louise mentioned the book Gifts Differing: Understanding Personality Type by Isabel Briggs Myers & Peter B. Myers.

Greetings Programs! 2024’s final episode of Disney Discussions is Mike’s choice; TRON (1982) & TRON: Legacy (2010)!

Watch the video version here: https://youtu.be/3R5wg2FE1wI

In more detail, Mike first talks about why he chose this classic movie and it’s legacy sequel, then each person talks about their first memories of TRON. After going through the numerous characters, plot points and special effects of the original, the gang talk about the same things in Legacy while comparing them to TRON. Special effects and visuals are a huge part of TRON’s appeal, but is it enough to make a satisfying sequel? Spider-Dan has also read some TRON comics and has watched the animated series TRON: Uprising, which he talks about too.

SPOILER WARNING: aside from the two TRON movies that are discussed in-depth, the movie Ex-Machina is spoiled around the 40 minute mark, so be aware!

This week’s guest is Mike’s languages teacher from over 14 years ago, who has recently written a book about the education system; Renés Lophanor!

In more detail, this was an in-person interview where Mike & Renés talk about Renés’ many years in teaching, why it’s so important for people to learn a second language, why he decided to write a book, the process of writing, what keeps him motivated, issues with the education system including the failure of the “one size fits all” approach, how empathy is important and you’ll even get to hear what Mike was like as a student when he was much younger – this is a great podcast for educators, authors, linguists and anyone with a passion for learning!

Renés’ site: https://reneslophanor.com – Instagram: @reneslophanor_author & facebook.com/RenesLophanor

Renés’ book; Why I Still Love Teaching, Despite Having All The Reasons In The World To Quit, will be out in September 2024!

The Acolyte has finished, and what a ride it’s been! Mike is joined by Angry Andy to talk about this finale and as both have quite different viewpoints on the show, it’s more of a debate than a review!

So, in this episode, Andy & Mike first talk about their expectations for the show, before delving into some issues with the show, including the Osha & Mae’s characters, before hearing a bit from Spider-Dan – he couldn’t make it to the recording but did record something which Andy & Mike listen to throughout and discuss! Andy & Mike then speak about the pacing and format of The Acolyte, and how it compares to other series. The duo (& Dan) also talk about prequel comparisons, side-characters, crystal bleeding, the future of the series, Bazil, The High Republic, Senator Rayencourt and so much more in this massive finale to this divisive series!

It’s all about dogs! In this episode of Disney Discussions, it was Megan’s pick, so we tackled the animated classics Fox And The Hound (1981) and Lady And The Tramp (1955)!

Watch the video version here: https://youtu.be/9oJPoMQwhTs

In more detail, Megan starts by explaining why she chose these two movies, before the other 3 talk about their first memories of them. They then talk about Fox And The Hound at length, talking about it’s characters, animation and songs, before delving into Lady And The Tramp to talk about the same! They then compare the two movies in all aspects to decide which they prefer and along the way they also talk about the bad pet owners in both movies! Keep an ear out for Mike “putting his foot in it” around the 40 minute mark (all the subsequent ribbing was in jest)!

The Acolyte continues, this week with Thomas Rochester from Reckless Rebellion, to talk with Mike about Episode 7: Choice!

In this episode, the duo first talk about what they think has worked in this show and what hasn’t, before delving into the penultimate episode of the series.They discuss pacing & episode runtimes, wasted characters, Torbin’s vision, the fire, the witches, the mind-control fight scene, the twins, Vernestta Rwoh and even the limited connections to The High Republic – Thomas & Mike are both positive enjoyers of Star Wars, but has this episode made them reach their limit?

In case you missed last week, part 1 of their conversation started with Scott confirming when he first experienced Moon Knight and why he is so interested by the character, as well as why he wanted to release an essay book on the character. The duo then delve into Moon Knight’s full history, while referencing several essays within Waxing And Waning, starting with his 1975 debut and 1980 solo comic run, before delving into the “edgy” 2006 Huston/Benson run and some of the runs along the way, before speaking about the Brian Michael Bendis run.

Author, educator, podcaster and all-round great guy Tony Farina returns to your feed for part 2 of a special 2 hour long conversation spanning all sorts of topics!

This week is part 2 and Mike & Tony discuss close political voting and political apathy, the importance of language & compassion and then delve back into religion from a moral perspective. They then talk about the journey Tony has been on since his first book; Welcome To Mansfield’s release, the upcoming audiobook, how music had an impact on his writing of the Austen Chronicles and it’s importance to the characters within the novels. Their conversation concludes with what 2024 holds for Tony in the book & podcasting world!

If you missed last week’s release (part 1) the duo began by discussing the idea of recording every waking moment and mobile/cell phone access, before the monarchy comes up including Elizabeth I, II and Mary Queen Of Scots which flows into England’s impact on world religion, the whole bizarre concept of having a Royal Family and the part ends with a “what-if” scenario!

Tony mentioned many things in this conversation including;

The library website https://search.worldcat.org, the TV series Victoria, the podcasts Cover To Cover by Chris Franjola and Mandatory Music & CD by Max Byrne on Comics In Motion, plus the musical artists Eric Hutchinson and Matt Nathanson.

Also the books; The Circle by Dave Eggers, Sapiens by Yuval Noah Harari, Lamb by Christopher Moore and The Future Of Us by Jay Asher & Carolyn Mackler. The article I Don’t Want To Be Right by Maria Konnikova: https://www.newyorker.com/science/maria-konnikova/i-dont-want-to-be-right

Tony has been on GCC numerous times, the last two were episodes 195 (introducing his first Jane Austen Novel) and 219 (for Buffy Revisited).

With all the buzz around Asajj Ventress & The Bad Batch, Mike has decided to release his Dark Disciple book review from Patreon! It’s a Clone Wars era novel written by Christie Golden, made with unused Clone Wars scripts, focusing on Quinlan Vos & Asajj Ventress near the end of the war, so it fits in with season 6/7 of The Clone Wars! Please also note this was recorded in a car so the quality isn’t the usual standard!

Clone Wars Conversations officially commences! This year Dave, Maff, Mike and occasionally Megan will be reviewing every episode of the 2008 Clone Wars animated series. They’ve reviewed The Phantom Menace, Attack Of The Clones and the Clone Wars movie, so now they delve into the entire first season, including all 22 episodes!

In more detail, they first talk about their general thoughts on the first season before Megan talks about her highlights and favourite characters. The squad then talk about the animation style before Megan goes to bed. The boys then talk in-depth about each standalone episode, full arcs and their high & low points of the series, including the clone’s personalities, the villains, the horror elements and where Maff thinks the show is going, given there is very little dramatic tension for the main protagonists. Near the end, Mike also confirms the chronological watching order of the first 3 seasons of The Clone Wars!

WHAT ARE THE FREE COMIC BOOK DAY HIGH REPUBLIC STORIES? In ep 143, Mike delves into the 2021 & 2023 Free Comic Book Day High Republic stories surrounding characters from the High Republic Adventures comics from Phase 1, primarily Lula Talisola. The 2021 story takes place just after the Race To Crashpoint Tower book while the 2023 story takes place after all issues of the phase 1 Adventures comics. Mike talks about these stories as well as Ram Jomaram, Zeen Mrala, Qort, Starlight Beacon, The Nihil and more!

Both stories were written by Daniel José Older, with Harvey Tolibao as artist. Rebcca Nalty was the colour artist for the 2021 story (Attack On The Republic Fair) and Michelle Madsen was colour artist for the 2023 story (Starlight Coda). FCBD21 was released in May 2021 and is in the trade paperback for volume 1 of The High Republic Adventures comics by IDW Publishing in February 2022, while FCBD23 was released August 2023. Both stories are within the THRA Phase 1 Omnibus, which was released in August 2023.

Listen to Mike’s review & summary of Race To Crashpoint Tower on this very feed (Feb 2022 for YT & CiM or May 2023 on SWCIC). The High Republic Adventures Phase 1 comics start in ep 86 of SWCIC, the middle comics (set after FCBD21) are in ep 90 and the finale (set just before FCBD23) are delved into in episode 93 of Star Wars: Comics In Canon.

Mike recently spoke with Adam Christopher (author of Shadow Of The Sith) in ep 216 of Genuine Chit-Chat and with Ethan Sacks (author of Bounty Hunters, Galaxy’s Edge & more Star Wars comics) on ep 213!

We’ve reached The Clone Wars, but before we get to the series, Dave, Maff, Megan & Mike have watched The Clone Wars movie from 2008 – do Dave, Megan & Mike dislike it as much as they remember and what did Maff think on his first watch?

In more detail, they talk about their first impressions of the movie and how it was originally the first four episodes of the series. They then talk about the various characters including Ahsoka, “Stinky” (Rotta The Hutt), Asajj Ventress, Obi-Wan & Anakin compared to their live-action counterparts, plus the voice-acting and audio editing and they discuss Padmé & Anakin’s relationships. They then discuss clones compared to droids, which film new Star Wars fans should start with and they finish off a small tangent onto not having seen “classic” movies.

Dave, Maff & Mike have spoken about The Phantom Menace and Attack Of The Clones previously (in episodes 212 & 214), listen on any podcast app or watch here: https://youtu.be/VD3nbfFJinQ & https://youtu.be/nr405kOINQc

VADER CONFRONTS PADMÉ’S HANDMAIDENS BUT WILL THEY JOIN HIM OR REBEL? For ep 142, Mike continues with the 2020 run of Darth Vader comics, with another story surrounding Sabé & Dormé caught in the web of Vader, as they try to save innocents while fighting against Jul Tambor. As Vader’s web entangles the other handmaidens too causing them to ask themselves what they’re willing to sacrifice in order to save lives and if Sabé is truly working for the Dark Lord…

Darth Vader 30-32 were all written by Greg Pak, with colour artist Federico Blee. Luke Ross was artist on issue 30 while Ibraim Roberson was artist on issues 31 & 32. Issue 30 was released January 11th 2023, issue 32 was released March 22nd 2023 and the trade paperback collection was released 27th June 2023.

For a refresher, go to ep 119 of SWCIC, where Mike delved into issues 24-29 of the Darth Vader comics!

Mike recently spoke with Ethan Sacks (author of Bounty Hunters, Galaxy’s Edge & more Star Wars comics) on ep 213 of Genuine Chit-Chat and has recorded an episode with Shadow of the Sith author Adam Christopher, so look out for that too!

In the last episode, Mike explains BEFORE AHSOKA, HOW DID ANAKIN, OBI-WAN AND PLO-KOON DEAL WITH CLONES? For ep 141, Mike delves into the IDW Publishing mini-series; Clone Wars Battle Tales – stories all set before the Clone Wars movie but after Attack Of The Clones, showing 6 missions the clones have been on with Jedi generals Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Plo-Koon. Amidst these stories, Mike provides additional info on several clones Ovissians, Plo-Koon, flying droids and more – this serves as a brilliant prequel to The Clone Wars movie and you don’t need to have seen any of The Clone Wars to enjoy!

This week, Mike sat down with author & journalist Ethan Sacks to talk about his new indie mini-series; A Haunted Girl, his Star Wars comics, including Bounty Hunters and more!

In more detail, the duo start with Ethan’s writing style and how he has written comics, how his journey from journalist to comic book writer has changed his involvement in the fandom, Ethan’s relationship with his dad and Star Wars, Ethan’s creative process, how Ethan has processed trauma through writing, Ethan’s collaborations with Paolo Villanelli, plus 4-LOM & Zuckuss. Ethan then talks in-depth about his comic A Haunted Girl along with his journey with his daughter through some difficult times. The conversation draws to a close after talking about Ethan’s COVID and Climate Crisis Chronicles – this conversation is perfect for Star Wars & indie comic fans, aspiring writers or those suffering with mental health issues.

This week brings another Star Wars conversation, where Dave, Maff, Megan & Mike go back to 1999 with the first of the controversial Prequel Trilogy; The Phantom Menace! The episode serves as a soft lead into the Clone Wars animated series, which Dave, Maff & Mike will be delving into in 2024 – Maff hasn’t watched the prequel trilogy in many years, while Mike is a staunch defender, so tune in to hear; is Phantom Menace actually any good?

In more detail, the gang discuss their impressions of Phantom Menace from when they first watched them and how they felt about it after the recently rewatch. They highlight certain characters, namely Jar Jar Binks, Darth Maul, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Qui-Gon Jinn, the political dialogue, how the movie was different from the original trilogy, things they believe could’ve been improved, elements that they enjoy and whether or not this film still deserves to be maligned even 24 years after release!

Keep an eye out for the upcoming episodes on Attack Of The Clones and the Clone Wars movie, leading to the trio’s upcoming show; Clone Wars Conversations! It’ll debut in 2024 and will be a monthly podcast by Dave, Maff & Mike where they’ll be going through each season of The Clone Wars animated series.

This week continues the existential conversation with actor, podcaster and deep-thinker; Thomas Rochester, talking about the concept of the soul & God, before & after death, prophetic dreams and so much more!

This release is part 2, where the conversation on deep thought continues; Mike & Thomas delve into prophetic dreams and talk about their own experiences, discuss past memories and alternate perspectives. Thomas then talks about communicating with one’s soul and how our physical forms limit certain knowledge which leads into a few of Thomas’ anecdotes. As their conversation draws to a close, the duo discuss how science & spirituality can work in tandem, an anecdote about vibrations and more – these podcasts are definitely for the deep/philosophical thinkers among you!

Last week was part 1 of the conversation, where Mike & Thomas loosely explained their theories on life and their respective relationships with religion, before delving deep into existentialism, self-care, the idea that we are all God (& if such a being exists) and Thomas talks about some literature that delves into these sorts of concepts (details below). The duo also discuss meditation, anchor points and more!

Thomas mentioned numerous things in this conversation including;

THE REBELS ARE TRAPPED IN NO SPACE, HOW WILL THEY ESCAPE? For ep 138, Mike delves back into the main run of Star Wars comics from 2020, where Chewie, Holdo, Lando, Leia, Lobot & Luke search for the Kezarat Convoy by using a High-Republic-era Nihil path engine and find themselves in trouble! In addition to the comic’s plot, Mike delves into a bit of information regarding the High Republic, Amilyn Holdo, Abyssians and more!

Star Wars 30-33 were all written by Charles Soule with Rachelle Rosenberg as colour artist and for issues 30 & 31, Andrés Genolet was artist while Madibek Musabekov was artist for issues 32 & 33.

Our discussion on Ahsoka continues with the penultimate episode of the series; Part 7: Dreams And Madness!

Mike is joined by Angry Andy and their conversation begins with Andy’s thoughts on the series so far, before delving into Hera & The New Republic, Sabine, Baylan Soll & Shin Hati’s paths, Thrawn, Ezra and more! In more detail, the duo inadvertently are quite critical of the show, as they start with surface-level issues but end up pulling threads that lead to more & more questions, including; do Ahsoka’s actions have any impact on the outcome of this show’s plot (aka bringing Thrawn back)? Do Ezra’s actions make sense or do they just to prevent him being too overpowered? Can any character with a name die? Why is Baylan so interesting while Morgan Elsbeth is so dull? Is this show just a prologue to an upcoming movie? Mike & Andy ask these questions and more!

For this ep, Mike is doing another spoiler-free book review from the High Republic era, continuing with the second wave (of the first phase) with Race To Crashpoint Tower by Daniel José Older – the junior novel which runs parallel to the “adult” novel, The Rising Storm, with a bunch of new and familiar characters!

In more detail, Mike gives information on the other releases for The High Republic (the first two waves within Phase 1), plus some background/plot information on the book and then delves into his spoiler-free review; providing information from the blurb & the themes, he then delves into the central characters in this book (as well as some who have appeared previously). Mike proceeds to talk about the way RTCT connects to The Rising Storm (with some mild TRS spoilers) and give some plot details from the first chapter or two of this book. Nearer the end Mike then explains RTCT’s plot (in brief) before giving his final thoughts and confirming what’s next for SWCIC!

This episode was first released on the feed of Comics In Motion, in February 2022.
Race To Crashpoint Tower was released June 29th 2021 and is by Daniel José Older. He has also written the Han & Lando book Last Shot and all of IDW Publishing’s High Republic Adventures comics plus the Trail Of Shadows mini-series.

Race To Crashpoint Tower is the junior novel of the second wave of the High Republic’s first phase along with the “adult” novel The Rising Storm and the YA book Out Of The Shadows, all set in 231BBY. Wave 3 (due early 2022) will include Claudia Gray’s “adult” novel The Fallen Star plus junior-novel Mission To Disaster by Justina Ireland and Daniel José Older’s young-adult novel Midnight Horizon.

From the first wave of phase 1 is Light Of The Jedi, A Test Of Courage & Into The Dark (232BBY), which Mike has reviewed on this show in 2021; LotJ was March, AToC was August and ItD was October.

Mike spoke with fellow THR author Claudia Gray on December 12th 2020 and with Cavan Scott in April 2022, so make sure you check those out!

We’ve added this information into the new page “Support Mike”, but wanted to make a post to make all subscribers aware that there are now 2 ways to financially support Mike & his podcasts – weekly or one-off payments/donations and either way, you will still receive bonus content!

If you want to make one-off payments/donations/tips, then going to https://ko-fi.com/genuinechitchat is the best way forward. You can give as little as £1, up to however much you desire! Mike will also send you links to some of the Patreon-exclusive Afterthoughts episodes! I will send you some bonus content for any donation. For £1-1.99 you will get 2 episodes of Afterthoughts, for £2-4.99 you will get 5 episodes, for £5-9.99 you will get 12 and for £10+ you will get 25! When donating, provide an email or your social media handle and I will send you a link to access the episodes. If you want any specific episodes, such as “MCU movies”, “Indie movies”, “musicals”, “days out/holidays”, or anything else similar, Mike will try his best to accommodate!

If you wanted to contribute a monthly amount to Mike, you can do-so via Patreon and will receive instant access to every episode of Afterthoughts on a podcast feed (which you can put into your preferred podcast app), and will have access to every future episode too!
For starters, Mike and Megan record “Afterthoughts” once or twice a week, giving their thoughts on a movie, series or live performance they’ve seen, or give their thoughts on a recent trip/holiday they’ve been on – episodes are usually between 10-20 minutes – three of these are already available for free; Witcher S1, Spider-Man 3 and Star Wars: The Phantom Menace!

In addition, any patrons will also get access to the extra-long GCC episodes in their entirety (instead of part 1 being released and then part 2 a week later, they get both parts in one go, at release of part 1) and early access to any book reviews posted on the feed of Star Wars: Comics In Canon – many of these are Star Wars Legends reviews & plot overviews, not available anywhere else!

Supporters on Patreon will receive an RSS link that they can put into their podcast app/player of choice for easy access to GCC’s Patreon content, or you can listen on the desktop site or app of Patreon itself!

Anyone who supports Mike via either method will as a bonus, receive one portion of his undying love, as this covers some of the costs of podcasting, which keeps the passion alive!

Go here to support the show monthly, or just check out the free stuff https://www.patreon.com/genuinechitchat

Go here to send a one-off donation/tip to Mike and receive a small collection of Afterthoughts episodes: https://ko-fi.com/genuinechitchat

Not convinced? Check out this YouTube video explaining it a bit more (keeping in mind the smallest Patreon amount is now only £1 (instead of £2 as in the video)!: https://youtu.be/xLc6G0GJeVQ

This is what you’ll see on the Patreon feed if you support the show!

This episode, Mike is doing another spoiler-free book review & plot overview from the High Republic’s second wave; The Rising Storm by Cavan Scott – the “main adult” novel with a huge amount of characters, major plot points and shocking moments!

In more detail, in the first half, Mike gives a information on the other releases for The High Republic (the first two waves within Phase 1), gives some background/plot information on the book and then delves into his spoiler-free review; providing information from the blurb, the themes, how it continues from Light Of The Jedi, what he enjoyed about it, which characters have returned and details found within the first few pages. Mike then reads out the blurb & crawl before providing more details on the characters and their general journeys/thoughts, the state of the Republic at the start of this book, the wider themes and how they impact story elements, as well as how it fits in with other High Republic material, which all falls into light-spoiler territory. He then talks about “connected content”, primarily the tie-in High Republic comics and gives a mini-review of the Tempest Runner audio drama before giving plenty of warning and delving into his more detailed review, which still doesn’t fully spoil the book but it does mention some plot details right at the very end, so you can listen to as little or as much info about The Rising Storm before picking it up yourself.

Please note this episode was first released in November 2021 on the podcast feed of Comics In Motion, plus Mike interviewed Cavan in April 2022, watch it here: ⁠⁠https://youtu.be/G5MYClEk_9c⁠⁠ The Rising Storm was released June 29th 2021 by Cavan Scott. He has also written the Dooku Jedi Lost audio drama, The Tempest Runner audio drama (set just after this book), as well as one story from each A Certain Point Of View book, all of Marvel’s standard The High Republic comics plus several titles under Star Wars Adventures for IDW publishing including the Monster Of Temple Peak mini-series, all 3 sets of Vader’s Castle stories and Adventures In Wild Space.

The Rising Storm is the adult novel of the second wave of the High Republic’s first phase along with Out Of The Shadows and Race To Crashpoint Tower, while Wave 3 (out 2022) includes The Fallen Star, Mission To Disaster and Midnight Horizon.

From the first wave of phase 1 is Light Of The Jedi, A Test Of Courage & Into The Dark, which Mike has reviewed on this show in 2021; LotJ was March, AToC was August and ItD was October.

This week Mike speaks with Lisa Baker; author of 3 published children’s books (with more to come), who has also come back from 8 months of travelling around the world, to talk about her process and her travels!

In more detail, the conversation starts with Lisa explaining why she wrote the books and how she got into her teaching career, before delving into how Lisa wrote the books and what the books are about, how Lisa teaches children, the need for a “thirst for knowledge” and how teaching has impacted her life outside of her career. Halfway through, the conversation then shifts to how Lisa & her husband managed to travel for 8 months, how the travelling has changed their perspectives and how important it’s been for personal growth, her future in publishing and more!

Book titles: “In All of Your Days Have You Seen the Ways an Animal Plays an Instrument?”, “Gertrude the Cow Gets In Trouble Somehow” & “Mom, What’s That Sound?”

In this episode, Mike is doing another spoiler-free book review from the High Republic era; Into The Dark by Claudia Gray! Although the book is a “young adult” novel, it’s still an excellent read for teenagers & adults alike and is part of the first wave of the first phase of High Republic content, focusing primarily on padawan Reath Silas & the Drengir!

In more detail, for the first half of the episode, Mike gives a bit of information on the other releases for The High Republic (the first two waves within Phase 1) and then delves into his spoiler-free review; primarily providing information from the blurb and within the first few pages; talking about the book’s themes, what he enjoyed about it and how it impacts the rest of The High Republic. In the second half, Mike provides more details on the characters within the story and gives examples on how the book’s themes work with the story being told and how it fits in with other High Republic material, which falls into light-spoiler territory. He gives plenty of warning before delving into his more detailed review, so you can listen to as little or as much info about Into The Dark before picking it up yourself – Mike ends the review with a general overview of the other High Republic books and talking about where they fit chronologically with the comics & other High Republic content.

TRIGGER WARNING! This week Mike speaks with Shaun Hamilton; writer of the book “When your Partner Says #MeToo: Your Role And Responsibilities In Their Recovery Process”, to talk about the book itself and what a someone’s role is when their partner is attempting to recover from sexual violence.

In more detail, their conversation begins with Shaun explaining why he wrote the book, the sexual violence his wife has experienced and how that affects him as a partner. Shaun then explains the “three paths” illustrating the mindsets one can have as a partner of someone going through recovery, the methodology used in his book and the environment one must create, Shaun then explains the difficulties he faced in writing a book of this nature, his definition of recovery and his wife’s experience with Rapid Resolution Therapy (TED Talk link detailing this below), plus other related topics – this is an intense, but incredibly important listen.

Go to Shaun’s site for more information and to read the full first chapter: https://shaunhamilton.com

Mike explores The Ronin’s story, confirms connections along the way and gives his interpretations to the ending.

MIKE & MEGAN TALK ABOUT THEIR EXPERIENCE OF THE FIRST 2 DAYS OF STAR WARS CELEBRATION 2023!

This week brings an extra-special episode, where M&M talk about what they expect from SWC, as Megan has never been to a convention before and Mike has been to a few, including the last SWC in the UK, 7 years ago. They then give their thoughts after their first full day of the convention, including some of the exciting Star Wars news about movies, and then the bulk of the episode is their experience of day 2, including some crazy cosplays, interesting panels, celebrity interactions, meeting fellow fans and so much more – this is the perfect pod to give you an idea what to expect at Star Wars Celebration, with the new Star Wars news stitched into it, with funny anecdotes (& Megan singing) along the way! Their experiences from days 3 & 4 should be released shortly too, so keep an eye out for those!

M&M met the cosplayers @Mikabird02 (Doctor Aphra) & @HappyCampersCosplay (Vernestra Rwoh) and they spent time at The High Republic panel with @TheAvalonLegion – all Instagram handles.

This ep, Mike is doing another High Republic spoiler-free book review; A Test Of Courage by Justina Ireland! Although the book is aimed at “middle-school” readers, this is a book that will appeal to all ages due to the writing, characters and themes throughout.

In more detail, for the first half of the episode, Mike gives a bit of information on the other releases for The High Republic (the first two waves within Phase 1) and then delves into his spoiler-free review; primarily providing information from the blurb and within the first few pages; talking about the book’s themes and what he enjoyed about it.

In the second half, Mike provides more details on the new characters and gives examples on how the book’s themes work so well with the story being told, which falls into light-spoiler territory. He gives plenty of warning before delving into his more detailed review, so you can listen to as little or as much info about AToC before picking it up yourself – Mike ends the review with a spoiler-free overview of the first 3 High Republic books and talking about where they fit chronologically with the comics & other High Republic content.

A Test Of Courage is from Phase 1, Wave 1 of The High Republic, also in Wave 1 is Light Of The Jedi and Into The Dark.

A Test Of Courage was released January 5th 2021 by Justina Ireland. She has also written the young adult novel Out Of The Shadows; a “sequel” to both Claudia Gray’s Into The Dark and AToC in The High Republic, plus the War Of The Bounty Hunters Jabba one-shot comic and the junior novels Lando’s Luck and Spark Of The Resistance.

In the last episode of SWCIC, Mike takes you through the first Doctor Aphra adventure from the 2020 comic run where Aphra is back to doing what she loves; finding & selling rare artifacts and almost dying in the process! Join everyone’s favourite rogue archaeologist with a whole new cast of characters and crazy situations that brings mystery, great dialogue and lots of connections to other Star Wars content that Mike will take you through, including info about the Kubaz species, the Tagge family, cursed bone cities and more!

The conversation then goes into full swing, where the group talk about premature babies, how pregnancy is treated in the US & UK, what childbirth is really like and how every birth (for all people) is different. Mike reads aloud a friend’s experience through a complicated pregnancy and then geriatric pregnancy & how biological men act in the delivery room are discussed!

For the best listening, ensure you’ve seen The Force Awakens & The Last Jedi, and while seeing The Rise Of Skywalker is suggested, it is not essential and there will be no spoilers for it within – this comic series takes place around 6 years before the events of Episode VII: The Force Awakens; so as TFA is 34 ABY, this comic mini-series is around 28 ABY (flashbacks between 18-25 ABY).

The Rise Of Kylo Ren is written by Charles Soule, with Will Sliney as the artist and Guru eFX as the colourist, issue #1 released December 2019 & issue #4 released March 2020.

Jamie of the Talking Dad UK podcast is this week’s guest; he talks with Mike about starting his podcast, men’s feelings, cemeteries, music and more!

In more detail, Mike & Jamie start by explaining the premise of his podcast as well as why he started it, they then talk about recording spaces, their mutual love of religious architecture and cemeteries before discussing how many men aren’t comfortable discussing emotions, having long-form conversations and getting guests for the show. Towards the end they talk about music (listening & playing), how Jamie’s son responds to it and their mutual love of live shows, so this is an episode that covers a lot of ground!

And check out Mike’s appearance on episode 21 of the Talking Dad UK podcast!

Hello there and welcome to Star Wars: Comics In Canon; your guide to the wider Star Wars canon through the comic-book lens! I’m your host Mike Burton – you may know me from the Genuine Chit-Chat podcast and for being the one with the abundance of Star Wars facts in the collaboration between Comics In Motion, 20th Century Geek & Genuine Chit-Chat in the journey to the Rise Of Skywalker! This release is just to outline what you can expect from these Saturday-slotted episodes on Comics In Motion’s fine feed (& on GCC’s YouTube) – it’s for all Star Wars fans; younglings & veterans alike! Whether you’ve consumed all the content (I’d be impressed if you have) or are just a film newbie getting into a galaxy far far away, I’m sure you’ll enjoy this look into the wider Star Wars canon!

I’ll be doing an episode each week about a character, an event, a series of comics or something similar, talking about which comics are worth checking out, general plot points from them as well as some trivia and news – this show is recommended for those who have seen all 9 episodes of Star Wars as well as Solo & Rogue One. If you’ve seen Clone Wars & Rebels too, that helps but is definitely not a requirement.

In this episode I also explain what Canon & Legends means in Star Wars, what the calendar regarding the battle of Yavin (BBY/ABY) means, a timeline of all current movies & series, a brief overview of what The High Republic era is, as well as giving a general overview on the comics/episodes to come.

The first “proper” episode will be releasing shortly and I am more than happy to take any & all criticism or notes to ensure this is the best podcast it can be, so if you have any questions, pointers or just fancy a chat, send me an email at StarWarsComicsInCanon@outlook.com!

Craig Van Slyke; college professor, rancher and host of the Rational Ignorance podcast is this week’s guest and he joins us to talk about his podcast, the value of stoicism, the difficulties he’s experienced in life & how he got through them (with many personal & honest examples) as well as many more topics.

In more detail, Craig starts by talking about how he first heard a podcast, why he started his show and what it’s about, before delving into the mindset of Craig & Mike’s younger selves when they were “dickish” by valuing being right over personal relationships, which leads onto Craig then explaining what stoicism is and he opens up about past hardships in his life and how his mindset helped him get through them, which has in turn made him a better person, plus other topics are discussed in this powerful & vulnerable conversation.

Seneca: Letters From A Stoic – Epicteetus: The Art Of Living – William Irvine: The Ancient Art of Stoic Joy

Jack of the Just Conversations podcast returns for part 2 of the deep dive into the concept of good & evil, consciousness, “the fountain of existence”, identity & more – continuing the very abstract discussion!

So for this week’s part, the conversation on consciousness continues but please be advised on a trigger warning, as rape is mentioned as an example during the discussion. For clarity, the rest of their conversation tackles abtract ideas, the equalisation of the universe, how the universe may have started, the causation of consciousness, the “fountain of existence”, free will & determinism, one’s self and more!

In case you missed it, part 1 of their chat started with the “passive apocalypse” and the polarising political system in America before delving into the main conversation topic; the concept of “good & evil”. Mike & Jack discuss whether “good” or “evil” even exist, as well as the historical retelling of events that alter perception, whether or not intent can affect the “goodness” of an action, religion’s impact of the perception of evil, heaven & hell and consciousness!
