    #250 – Comic Books Are High Art! Convincing Fans Of Prose To Read Art Panels And Comics Lit Volume 1 With Tonya Todd & Tony (A.R.) Farina
    Nov 24 2024
    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.

The second arc apparently features George Lucas’ favourite Clone Wars episodes (10-13), where a small-statured general goes on a mission with a handful of droids to infiltrate a separatist ship and end up being stranded in the desert known as The Void before finding a curious out of place local. As well as talking about these episodes, Dave, Maff & Mike discuss George Lucas’ involvement in the Clone Wars, Huyang’s appearance in Ahsoka, droids in Star Wars and more!

  • #248 – How Can The MBTI Personality Test Help You? Myers & Briggs’ 16 Personalities, A Quiz And Dissociative Identity Disorder With Louise (Of The Douglas Vincent System)

    #248 – How Can The MBTI Personality Test Help You? Myers & Briggs’ 16 Personalities, A Quiz And Dissociative Identity Disorder With Louise (Of The Douglas Vincent System)
    Nov 10 2024

    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.

    For an in-depth introduction to Dissociative Identity Disorder (formerly Multiple Personality Disorder), listen to episode 235 of GCC, from June 2024 where Mike spoke with Leyna: https://pod.fo/e/2430ed
