    Mary Roach "Replaceable You: Adventures in Human Anatomy"

    “An interesting planet."   Chatter rolls with Claude, David and Torie. They reveal Claude’s latest acting role in the mansion murders podcast and continue working on “The Pitch,”  Best selling, wicked smart, and very funny Mary Roach zooms in to share “Replaceable You.” Forget what you think you know about human anatomy and how we replace/fix/grow new body parts.  “Replaceable You” means never looking at a pig the same way again.  It’s terrific!

    Hannah Pittard “If You Love It, Let It Kill You”

The award winning, best selling, and very funny Hannah Pittard zooms in to share her latest novel, “If You Love It, Let It Kill You.”  Drop the couples therapy and buy this book.  Pittard nails relationships, artistic expression, and making ordinary things profound.  Not to mention the best talking cat ever.

    Susan Morrison “Lorne: The Man Who Invented Saturday Night Live”

    “The definitive biography.”   Chatter rolls back with Claude, David, Torie, and COB fave James Grady.  They hit summer highlights, why Barnes & Noble is on a roll, and ideated Chatter’s soon-to-be writing competition (working title: The Pitch). Susan Morrison zooms in with “Lorne,” a decade long look at the man at the center of Saturday Night Live.  It’s the ultimate “fly on the wall” experience and a walk through fifty years of entertainment, and culture, and politics, and life.

    James Grady “American Sky”

    “All the old ghosts are leaving town…”   Chatter rolls with Claude, David, Torie and COB fave Lou Bayard.  Lou goes playwright, and David sheds a tear (a happy one) over TNT.  Award winning, best selling and all around cool guy James Grady zooms in to share his latest, “American Sky.”  Epic and sweeping and so much more significant than your average coming of age story.  Grady’s portrait is, as Lou puts it “…indelibly, the portrait of a nation — an epic canvas that always feels intimate…"

    S.L. Price “The American Game: History and Hope in the Country of Lacrosse”

    “History and hope.”   Chatter rolls live at Wonderland Books in Bethesda, Maryland.  Claude, David, Jamie, and Torie chat with Wonderland owner Gayle Weiswasser.  She gives the lowdown on how the store is doing; foot traffic, sales, and community hub all flourishing.  S.L. Price (aka Scott) takes a seat to share his latest “The American Game — History and Hope in the Country of Lacrosse.”  Revered by many as one of the all time great sportswriters, Scott examines the history, culture and geopolitics of the game. Meticulously researched, “The American Game” is a fascinating look at a sport whose evolution explains so much about the country.

    Kyra Davis Lurie “The Great Mann”

    “Better than Gatsby.”   Chatter rolls with Claude, Torie, and Jamie as David recovers from NBA finals.  They break down DOD events, and Rocco’s shot contest beats all. Best selling author and screenwriter Kyra Davis Lurie zooms in the share “The Great Mann.” Describing it as a reimagining of “The Great Gatsby,” as many do, doesn’t do justice to this deeply researched look at class and wealth and Black identity in postwar Los Angeles. It’s Lurie’s first turn at historical fiction; hopefully not her last.

    Ling Ling Huang “Immaculate Conception

    “To the Jealous.“   Chatter rolls with Kevin Stanfield filling in for Claude (in Hershey), Jamie, and Torie as David rocks the NBA finals.  Horses rule as Torie raves about her rare win betting on the ponies, and they discuss the perils of gambling. They preview Chatter’s live show in Bethesda om July 7 at Wonderland Books.    A violinist and author, Ling Ling Huang zooms in to share “Immaculate Conception.”  Her second novel, it blows ones mind with the possibilities — good and bad — when technology and art and friendship collide.

    Ted Genoways "Tequila Wars: Jose Cuervo and the Bloody Struggle for the Spirit of Mexico”

    “Untold“   Chatter rolls with Claude, David, Jamie, Torie, and COB alum Mike Croley.  All agree that Charlotte Bronte was more talented at 13 than any of us as adults.  Mike explains tenure — liberating.  David wins the pop quiz “name the book by the quote.” Award winning (as in James Beard) and best selling author Ted Genoways zooms in to share “Tequila Wars,” his massively researched and compellingly written take on the unsung and underreported Jose Cuervo, a real person with untold impact on Mexican history.
