Nobody likes being criticized. Nobody likes it when someone highlights your mistakes. In Meditations, Marcus Aurelius tries to remind himself that he has the freedom to take correction and criticism. He knew he didn't control what the person said or how they said it, but he did control how he handled it.

Louis speaks to John Wilson, fellow documentarian and creator of the cult-favourite series, How To...with John Wilson. The pair swap stories about their respective work, including discussing John's collaborations with writer and producer Nathan Fielder, how joining an acapella group exposed him to the NXIVM sex-cult, and their shared disdain for mockumentaries. Plus, John turns the tables on Louis…   Warnings: Strong language and some adult themes.  Links/Attachments:  TV Show: ‘How To with John Wilson' (2020-2023) - HBO  https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/p0cltlm3/how-to-with-john-wilson     TV Show: ‘Louis Theroux: Gambling in Las Vegas' (2007) - BBC  https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b007957z/louis-theroux-gambling-in-las-vegas    TV Show: ‘Louis Theroux's LA Stories' (2014) - BBC  https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/b03zjc67/louis-therouxs-la-stories     Pitch Perfect (2012)   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2mbsapmW0bg     Song: ‘Roxanne', The Police (1978)  https://open.spotify.com/track/3EYOJ48Et32uATr9ZmLnAo   'El Tango de Roxanne/Roxanne Medley' - Simply Human https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAwbG5tq6yY    TV Show: ‘Seduced: Inside the NXIVM Cult' (2020) - Starz  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ch_4jn_m6-g    TV Show: ‘The Vow' (2020) - HBO  https://www.hbo.com/the-vow-2020     TV Show: ‘Louis Theroux's Weird Weekends' (1998-2000) - BBC  https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p02q5prq/louis-therouxs-weird-weekends-series-1-1-christianity?seriesId=unsliced     The Amazing Johnathan (2019)  https://www.imdb.com/title/tt9358084/     TV Show: ‘When Louis Met...Jimmy Savile' (2000) - BBC  https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p0g3zjn9/when-louis-met-series-1-jimmy-savile     TV Show: ‘Louis Theroux: America's Most Dangerous Pets' (2011) - BBC  https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b016yklh/louis-theroux-americas-most-dangerous-pets     TV Show: ‘Nathan For You' (2013-2017) - Comedy Central  https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2297757/     TV Show: ‘The Rehearsal' (2022 – Present) - HBO  https://www.hbo.com/the-rehearsal     Book: The Journalist and the Murderer, Janet Malcolm (1989)  https://www.amazon.co.uk/Journalist-Murderer-Janet-Malcolm/dp/1847085342     Book: The Silent Woman: Sylvia Plath and Ted Hughes, Janet Malcolm (1994)  https://www.amazon.co.uk/Silent-Woman-J-Malcolm/dp/0679751408    Book: Psychoanalysis: The Impossible Profession, Janet Malcolm (1977)  https://www.amazon.co.uk/Psychoanalysis-Impossible-Profession-Janet-Malcolm/dp/0394710347    Credits:  Producer: Millie Chu   Assistant Producer: Emilia Gill Production Manager: Francesca Bassett   Music: Miguel D'Oliveira   Audio Mixer: Tom Guest  Video Mixer: Scott Edwards   Shownotes compiled by Immie Webb  Executive Producer: Arron Fellows       A Mindhouse Production for Spotify   www.mindhouse.co.uk     Learn more about your ad choices.

EPISODE 485 - Wendy Dale - Memoir Writing for Geniuses, Peru and Grandma's PiesAbout Wendy Dale"Wendy is the best instructor I've had, bar none. She continually pushes you and never lets you settle for good enough. She is knowledgeable, patient, helpful, and has an excellent sense of humor! I would take a class again with her anytime." -- Sandra Carpenter"Wendy is phenomenal! I've taken dozens of writing courses and completed an MFA in creative writing. Never have I received such useful instruction. I'm happy that I'll be starting her advanced course next week." -- Mary Rowland"Wendy exceeded my expectations. I was stunned by how much practical information I learned and by how much I grew as a writer. The class was, in a word, invaluable!" -- Carly Van Thomme"Wendy encourages her students to dig deeper -- and the results show. I highly recommend her. She is insightful, conscientious, and supportive. I couldn't ask for more." -- Michele Meek"Wendy is that tough critic who can be the best thing that happens to your manuscript." -- Lucey BowenAcclaim for Wendy's memoir"Deeply funny."    – Vogue Magazine"Wry, funny."     – Outside Magazine"Mix David Sedaris, Lucille Ball, and a fifth of tequila in a blender [and] you get Wendy Dale, who is quite possibly the funniest travel writer since Homer. But strain off the foamy giggles and you're left with a raw, smart, and passionate woman in search of herself and awestruck at the beauty of even the ugliest corners of the earth."   – Deborah C. Kogan, author of Shutterbabe""Dale has an amazing ability not only to find intrigue and drama and hardship but to meet them all with an undampened sense of humor and a roving eye for the absurd. And by getting entangled in other people's lives, as opposed to hiking through rain forests, she enjoys glimpses into worlds forever closed to the average tourist. A few years ago, Janet Malcolm, writing in the New Yorker, complained that she ‘always found travel writing a little boring' because ‘travel itself is a low-key emotional experience, a pallid affair in comparison with ordinary life' … which is absolutely true, unless you travel like Wendy Dale."   – Thomas Swick, travel editor of the Ft. Lauderdale Sun-Sentinel"This is a wonderful book – not a subversive treatise on rule-breaking as the title might suggest, but a witty, insightful memoir of a young woman from an offbeat, though well-traveled family."    – Bookpage"With grace, charm and abundant humor, Dale narrates her meandering story of a childhood regained, ‘a chance to make rash decisions, to take wild risks, to lose everything knowing I'd still have plenty of time to earn it all back.'"   – Time Out New York"Funny, impulsive, and alluringly naïve, Wendy Dale is repeatedly swept into adventure and trouble and love, mostly when she's looking the other way. I had a great time going along on her wacky journey. I read the book in one sitting, reluctantly getting up midway to make a sandwich, placing the open book on the counter so I didn't have to stop reading."   – Rita Golden Gelman, author of Tales of a Female Nomad https://www.geniusmemoirwriting.com/Support the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca

The episode with two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times op-ed columnist Nick Kristof focused on his recent inspirational and hope-filled book, "Chasing Hope." The conversation began with Kristof speaking to Michael Krasny about the effects on him and the moral challenges he faced covering Tiananmen Square, as well as the lessons he gleaned from his early reporter's work in Cambodia and the U.S. He opined on the fight for democracy and weighed the effect on him of the oppression and suffering of children.Krasny then brought up the role and impact of Kristof's parents, and Kristof spoke of compassion fatigue and what he believes needs to be done. He emphasized the need for more stories that call attention to humanitarian crises and the public good. The two then spoke of journalism as an act of hope and discussed contrasts between former U.S. President Jimmy Carter and President-elect Donald Trump, as well as Kristof's past decision to run for Governor of Oregon.When Krasny asked Kristof about his views on race versus class and New York Times coverage of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Kristof spoke about rising anti-Semitism, the meaning of the word genocide, and his feelings of frustration at the slow pace of change despite remarkable progress on many fronts. The conversation turned to journalistic ethics, human rights, and Kristof's wife Sheryl's Chinese ancestry.Kristof also addressed the concept of "white saviors" and answered a listener's question about the effect of Artificial Intelligence. The two then returned to further consideration of journalistic ethics, Janet Malcolm, journalists as storytellers, Tiananmen Square, and Gaza. Kristof spoke of making the ineffable effable and of David Brooks' dichotomy of a resume versus a eulogy. It was a brilliant and enlightening conversation with one of America's leading journalists.

In meditation, let us focus on compassion for those who are overlooked—minor characters in stories and in life. Reflect on the figures of Deborah, Rachel's nursemaid, and Eliezer of Damascus. Their lives, like Rachel's own tragic death, are often reduced to mere footnotes in the grand narrative of Genesis. Janet Malcolm observed that biographers and storytellers may sacrifice the humanity of such “flat” characters to serve the greater arc. Yet these are three-dimensional souls with full, untold stories. In meditation, honor them and others who are marginalized or forgotten. Hold space for their dignity, their silent contributions, and their humanity. With each breath, expand your compassion, embracing those whose lives ripple unseen beneath the surface of larger tales.

A wide-ranging discussion featured acclaimed author and podcaster Malcolm Gladwell. Michael Krasny began by exploring Malcolm's entry into podcasting. Malcolm shared his love for the medium and how his podcast, Revisionist History, showcases his "mischievous side." They discussed the success of podcasters Joe Rogan and Bill Simmons and the importance of curiosity and listening skills. Malcolm touched on his experience with Paul Simon and the cultural effects on cardiologists, as detailed in his latest book. The conversation covered diverse topics. These included elite schools and college admissions processes, a town with a suicide epidemic, and the homogeneity of cheetahs. Malcolm also spoke about OxyContin and COVID, his favorite published book, and his current writing project. He expressed a growing interest in character-driven writing and his admiration for journalist Janet Malcolm. The dialogue then shifted to the role of faith in Malcolm's writing and his thoughts on Kamala Harris and popular music. They explored the impact of popular culture on Holocaust discussions and Malcolm's views on Pastor Rick Warren. The importance of journalism and Malcolm's increasing skepticism were also addressed. The conversation concluded with topics like white flight, fame, and Malcolm's earlier work at The New Yorker.

"Every journalist who is not too stupid or too full of himself to notice what is going on knows that [...] he is a kind of confidence man, preying on people's vanity, ignorance or loneliness, gaining their trust and betraying them without remorse." Some fighting talk from Janet Malcolm, back in 1989. But is there truth in her words? This week on Whale Hunting, Bradley talks to Steve Fishman, the legendary journalist who got big names like fraudster Bernie Madoff and killer Son of Sam to open up. Steve's latest podcast My Friend, The Serial Killer reflects on his first big break in journalism, which came about after a close encounter with serial killer Robert Carr. He talks about why the story has continued to trouble him, and what it was like to revisit his early reporting decades later. Bradley and Steve also discuss the intimacy of telling stories in podcasts, how to get sources to talk, and the careful balance between sincerity, compassion and ruthless reporting. To listen to Steve's podcast, search for Smoke Screen: My Friend, The Serial Killer in your favourite podcast app. There's also the special director's cut of his show Empire on Blood, with three new episodes, coming soon to the Smoke Screen feed.

Reading List:* Oh, Mr Hitchens! by Laura Kipnis* The Journalist and the Editor, by Laura Kipnis* Sexual Paranoia Strikes Academe, Laura Kipnis* My Title IX Inquisition, by Laura Kipnis* Christopher Hitchens' last years: Islam, the Iraq war and how a man of the left found his moment by breaking with the left, by Daniel OppenheimerMy guest on the show today is Laura Kipnis. Laura is a cultural critic and essayist whose work focuses on sexual politics, aesthetics, shame, emotion, acting out, moral messiness, and various other crevices of the American psyche. She is the author of, among other books, Unwanted Advances: Sexual Paranoia Comes to Campus; Men: Notes from an Ongoing Investigation; How to Become A Scandal; Against Love: A Polemic; The Female Thing: Dirt, Sex, Envy, Vulnerability; and Bound and Gagged: Pornography and the Politics of Fantasy in America–have been translated into fifteen languages. Her latest book, just out this past year, is Love in the Time of Contagion: A Diagnosis.I've admired Laura's writing for many years, but the specific reason I was prompted to invite her on the show today were two essays of very recent vintage. One was a review, for Bookforum, of the last book by Janet Malcolm, which was published after her death. And a short essay for Critical Quarterly on Christopher Hitchens that had the lovely title, “Oh, Mr. Hitchens!”These essays resonated with me both on their own terms and because Janet Malcolm and Christopher Hitchens were—are—profoundly important to me. In very different ways I think they provided templates of what kind of things I might want to do as a writer. I also just loved reading them, and think my understanding of the world has been shaped by them. And Laura kind of got them. The Hitchens piece, in particular, captured something about the man that I've seen captured by no one else. Take this passage, for instance, in which Laura is recounting an evening when she was drinking with Hitchens, before he was scheduled to give a talk at Northwestern. They get on the subject of Bill Clinton:Something about Bill Clinton's sex life seemed to derange him. He was off the rails on the subject, literally sputtering. I tried to put it to him that he seemed, well, overinvested. It seemed way too personal, somehow off. What was it about Bill Clinton that had this unhinging effect on him? (I was kind of drunk at that point myself.) I suppose I expected him to at least pretend to ponder the question, devote maybe a few seconds to a show of self-examination. Anyone would. Not him. He was barricaded against anything I could say, also against the ‘what is this “about” for you' sort of conversation that drunk people are known to have, which is one of the fun things about drinking, Something obdurate and hardened switched on instead. Thinking was not what was taking place, just pre-rehearsed lines and a lot of outrage.This is exceptional writing. It's also very perceptive about Hitchens in a way that sidesteps so many of the posthumous takes on Hitchens, which tend to divide far too cleanly between those who like or dislike his late politics. The problem with late Hitchens wasn't that his politics changed, but that his thinking got more rigid and therefore writing got worse.Laura and I talk about Hitch, Malcolm, her own backstory as a writer, and more.Eminent Americans is a reader-supported publication.

Aunque le sirvió para celebrar –de nuevo– a Karl Kraus, que cumple siglo y medio, reconvino duramente a Santos por hacerle jugar con la pelotita fachosfera. ¡Última vez que los adultos se ocupan de cosas de niños! Pueril, precisamente, es un Estado que tiene que negociar en Bruselas algo como la renovación del Consejo General del Poder Judicial. Una democracia tutelada, de guardería. No obstante, reconoce que no es un asunto fácil, acordar algo con un Gobierno fundamentado en el pacto con un prófugo de la justicia, y menos si el enviado de la oposición es González Pons. Tuvo que volver a ocuparse de la prensa socialdemócrata, tras la marcha de Félix de Azúa, anunciada histriónicamente. Se equivoca quien piense que El País se ha transformado, fuera del breve interregno de Antonio Caño. Tómense, si no, aquellas audiencias colectivas en la redacción del periódico para ver el vídeo de Pedro Jota. Se reiteró la crítica al prestigio cultural de las drogas y la delicia que es leer a Janet Malcolm sobre el adulterio. Y fue así que Espada yiró.

The genius mind of Bill - books editor at Apocalypse Confidential & writer in his own right - who has been on the show many times before, brought me an extraordinary pairing of media for this episode. We discuss both the tremendous work of non-fiction literature The Journalist & The Murderer by Janet Malcolm; & the tremendous 1970 Italian satire/crime film Investigation of a Citizen Above Suspicion. We are joined by another genius man, the great Mark from Bruiser Magazine who brings another layer of intellectual heat to this episode. Thank you so much, Bill & Mark. This turns into an exploration of the nature of suspicion, guilt, innocence & storytelling. Enjoy.

Undaunted: How Women Changed American Journalism (Knopf, 2023) is a representative history of the American women who surmounted every impediment put in their way to do journalism's most valued work. From Margaret Fuller's improbable success to the highly paid reporters of the mid-nineteenth century to the breakthrough investigative triumphs of Nellie Bly, Ida Tarbell, and Ida B. Wells, Brooke Kroeger examines the lives of the best-remembered and long-forgotten woman journalists. She explores the careers of standout woman reporters who covered the major news stories and every conflict at home and abroad since before the Civil War, and she celebrates those exceptional careers up to the present, including those of Martha Gellhorn, Rachel Carson, Janet Malcolm, Joan Didion, Cokie Roberts, and Charlayne Hunter-Gault. As Kroeger chronicles the lives of journalists and newsroom leaders in every medium, a larger story develops: the nearly two-centuries-old struggle for women's rights. Here as well is the collective fight for equity from the gentle stirrings of the late 1800s through the legal battles of the 1970s to the #MeToo movement and today's racial and gender disparities. Undaunted unveils the huge and singular impact women have had on a vital profession still dominated by men.

Lecture par Constance Dollé Rencontre avec Jakuta Alikavazovic Rencontre animée par Marie-Madeleine Rigopoulos Esther Greenwood est folle de joie lorsqu'elle décroche un stage dans un magazine de mode new-yorkais. Mais entre les cocktails et les rédaction d'articles, la vie d'Esther commence à lui échapper, notamment lorsqu'elle apprend que le prestigieux atelier d'écriture auquel elle a postulé l'a refusée. Dans la langueur de l'été 1953, elle sombre dans une brutale dépression et se fait interner. Ce roman semi-autobiographique de Sylvia Plath offre un regard intime, réaliste et déchirant sur la maladie mentale. Célébré pour son humour noir et son portrait acéré de la société patriarcale des années 1950, ce roman continue de résonner auprès des lecteurs d'aujourd'hui. « Le silence me déprimait. Ce n'était pas le silence du silence.

Know Your Enemy presents: an episode of Ordinary Unhappiness — a new podcast about psychoanalysis with hosts Abby Kluchin and Patrick Blanchfield. Their guest? Sam Adler-Bell! In the episode that follows, we talk about how Sam came to study conservative thought from a leftist perspective and what role psychoanalysis plays in that project; discuss the libidinal satisfactions of conservative politics; and speculate about the contemporary absence of sophisticated right-wing psychoanalytic thinkers. Then they turn to a favorite writer, journalist Janet Malcolm, author of Psychoanalysis: The Impossible Profession and The Journalist and the Murderer. They talk about parallels between the role of the analyst and that of the journalist; interiors and interiority; secrets, thefts, and betrayals; the so-called “Freud wars”; and the internal politics of psychoanalytic institutions. Finally, they examine Malcolm's famous claim that the task of the journalist is “morally indefensible” and its implications for the work of the analyst. Further reading: Sam Adler-Bell, "Janet Malcolm's Dangerous Method," The New Republic, Mar 20, 2023Sam Adler-Bell, "Succession's Repetition Compulsion," The Nation,  Nov 10, 2021Hannah Gold, “Analysis Interminable: On Janet Malcolm,” The Nation, June 25, 2021.Janet Malcolm, Psychoanalysis: The Impossible Profession  (1982)— In The Freud Archives  (1984)— The Journalist and the Murderer  (1990)...and don't forget to subscribe to Know Your Enemy on Patreon for access to all of our bonus episodes! For more  Ordinary Unhappiness:  Linktree: https://linktr.ee/OrdinaryUnhappinessTwitter: @UnhappinessPodInstagram: @OrdinaryUnhappinessPatreon: patreon.com/OrdinaryUnhappiness

Shaun Barnett reviews Still Pictures: On Photography and Memory by Janet Malcolm; introduced by Ian Frazier; afterword by Anne Malcolm, published by Text Publishing.

Nathaniel Martello-White on making his directorial debut with the psychological thriller The Strays, set between a south London estate and an affluent English suburb. Chila Kumari Singh Burman's show at FACT in Liverpool, Merseyside Burman Empire, references her MBE for services to Visual Art, awarded last year in the Queen's Birthday Honours, and her experiences growing up in Bootle as the daughter of Punjabi-Hindu parents. Dawinder Bansal's Jambo Cinema installation, which explored her life growing up in 1980s Wolverhampton with Indian-Kenyan parents, was one of the big commissions at last year's Commonwealth Games Cultural Festival in Birmingham. Chila and Dawinder discuss making art that draws upon their South Asian heritage. Throughout her career, the distinguished writer Janet Malcolm, who died in 2021, was fascinated by photography. She came to prominence through her journalism for the New Yorker including six years as the magazine's photography critic.

Desde que estaba terminando sus estudios universitarios Dominique ha jugado con la idea de escribir la biografía de Carmen Balcells, una de las figuras más importantes del boom latinoamericano. Con ella conversamos sobre lo que ofrece el género biográfico a un mundo saturado por las narrativas que esgrimen las personas en redes sociales; sobre la relación que tiene una biógrafa con la figura que pretende retratar; y sobre cómo Dominique se ha transformado a raíz de su obsesión con Balcells.

Federico Jeanmaire nació en Baradero en 1957. Es licenciado en Letras y fue profesor en la Universidad de Buenos Aires. Especialista en el Siglo de Oro y en El Quijote, su obra literaria es una de las más vastas y de las más premiadas, en Argentina y en el mundo. Sus novelas, escritas en una lengua llana, son propuestas sofisticadas y por momentos experimentales, que tras una aparente sencillez esconden algunas de las apuestas más audaces de la narrativa argentina. Papá, Más liviano que el aire, Miguel, Fernández mata a Fernández, Tacos altos y Werra son algunas de sus novelas. Recientemente editorial Alianza acaba de publicar Darwin o el origen de la vejez, novela ganadora del Premio Unicaja Fernando Quiñones. Esta vez el protagonista de la historia es un músico que, a punto de cumplir 60 años, viaja a Galápagos para pasar allí esa fecha especial. Una mujer de la que está enamorado lo rechazó porque lo considera viejo para ella y es a partir de esa mirada que el narrador advierte lo inexorable del paso del tiempo. Galápagos será el escenario para reencontrarse con el mundo de Darwin dos siglos después, para reflexionar sobre los cambios en la humanidad durante estos 200 años pero también para repensar el lugar del silencio en su actividad como músico y darle nuevos aires a la creación. Al mismo tiempo, intentará conectar con sus instintos vitales y mantener una mirada adulta pero siempre joven sobre lo que lo rodea. En la sección Bienvenidos, Hinde habló de “Viajero de cercanías”, de Roberto Arlt. Aguafuertes 80 años después. Diario El mundo. Prólogo y compilación de Margarita Pierini publicado por Mil Botellas y de “Filosofía del cuidado”, de Boris Groys editado por Caja Negra. En Libros que sí recomendó “Clima”, de Jenny Offil (Libros del Asteroide) y “Nadie te está mirando” (publicado por Monte Hermoso ediciones y traducido por Teresa Arijón) es el último libro publicado en vida de la escritora y periodista Janet Malcolm. En la sección En voz alta, la esctitora Ana Arzoumanian leyó el poema de Karén Karslyan, de Armenia. “Nosotros somos los siguientes” en su traducción al castellano. Ana acabla de publicar “La guerra es un verbo” por editorial La Cebra. En Mesita de luz, la psicoanalista, escritora y crítica literaria Laura Galarza nos contó que libros está leyendo. Laura, junto a Natalia Neo Poblet, recomienda libros en "La solapa".

The entire ekphrasis series is now available as a special collection.
