Chicago friend's advice makes me wonder, riveradams, how do you actually practice listening instead of just waiting?

That's a great friend to have. It took me years to realize I was just waiting for my turn to talk instead of actually hearing what someone said. The best conversations about books feel more like a shared discovery than a debate.
