Genuine Chit-Chat is back with a new quarterly show that will be airing in 2027 – a book club featuring Mike, Tony (A.R.) Farina and “Superdummy” Paul McGuigan! Initially recorded in 2025, this episode is the “pilot” where our trio review a book originally written in 1841 by Hugh Harkin, but was found in the 90s and printed by the Ballinascreen Historical Society as The Life & Adventures Of Hudy McGuigan! Paul is related to the titular character, hence their discovery of the book. The book is written in a unique way, with plenty of phonetic language and tall-tales, many of are considered truth from the time, about the mythical Hudy McGuigan and his life in Ireland, including the unusual situations he found himself in due to his mischievous ways  - this is not a conventional book, so it makes the perfect pilot book to review! Paul & Mike discussed this book before reading on episode 266 of GCC, listen here: https://pod.fo/e/2c7535 The next book our trio will be reviewing is Tony’s pick; J. D. Salinger’s Catcher In The Rye from 1951, so make sure you subscribe to hear that in 2027, then either Paul or Mike will choose the next book. The fourth book will be chosen by you – the audience! So have a think and later in 2027, we’ll put the call out to ask what to read and review!

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.
