Podcasts about Mailer

Who are the most symbolic mid 20th century American Jews? In Eminent Jews, New Yorker staff writer David Denby tells the remarkable stories of Leonard Bernstein, Mel Brooks, Betty Friedan, and Norman Mailer. He explains how each embodied a new Jewish confidence after WWII, contrasting with earlier generations' restraint. Each figure pushed boundaries in their own way - Bernstein through his musical versatility, Brooks through his boundary-pushing humor about Jewish experiences, Friedan through her feminist theories, and Mailer through his provocative writing style. Five key takeaways * Post-WWII Jewish Americans displayed a newfound confidence and willingness to stand out publicly, unlike previous generations who were more cautious about drawing attention to their Jewishness.* The four figures in Denby's book (Bernstein, Brooks, Friedan, and Mailer) each embraced their Jewish identity differently, while becoming prominent in American culture in their respective fields.* Mel Brooks used humor, particularly about Jewish experiences and historical trauma, as both a defense mechanism and a way to assert Jewish presence and resilience.* Each figure pushed against the restraint of previous Jewish generations - Bernstein through his expressive conducting and openness about his complex sexuality, Friedan through her feminist activism, and Mailer through his aggressive literary style.* Rejecting the notion that a Jewish "golden age" has ended, Denby believes that despite current challenges including campus anti-Semitism, American Jews continue to thrive and excel disproportionately to their population size.David Denby is a staff writer at The New Yorker. He served as a film critic for the magazine from 1998 to 2014. His first article for The New Yorker, “Does Homer Have Legs?,” published in 1993, grew into a book, “Great Books: My Adventures with Homer, Rousseau, Woolf, and Other Indestructible Writers of the Western World,” about reading the literary canon at Columbia University. His other subjects for the magazine have included the Scottish Enlightenment, the writers Susan Sontag and James Agee, and the movie directors Clint Eastwood and the Coen brothers. In 1991, he received a National Magazine Award for three of his articles on high-end audio. Before joining The New Yorker, he was the film critic at New York magazine for twenty years; his writing has also appeared in The Atlantic, The New York Review of Books, and The New Republic. He is the editor of “Awake in the Dark: An Anthology of Film Criticism, 1915 to the Present” and the author of “American Sucker”; “Snark”; “Do the Movies Have a Future?,” a collection that includes his film criticism from the magazine; and “Lit Up,” a study of high-school English teaching.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for March 1, 2025 is: factoid • FAK-toyd • noun A factoid is a brief and usually unimportant or trivial fact. Factoid may also refer to an invented fact believed to be true because it appears in print. // The book is really just a collection of interesting factoids. See the entry > Examples: "Straight from the [Lake Como, Italy] hotel docks, our captain showed us around the various villas and properties dotted around the lake, peppering in some historical and pop-culture factoids, like how the idyllic Villa Balbianello was featured in the Star Wars prequel films." — Nashia Baker, Architectural Digest, 7 Dec. 2024 Did you know? In his 1973 book Marilyn (about Marilyn Monroe), Normal Mailer describes factoids as "facts which have no existence before appearing in a magazine or newspaper, creations which are not so much lies as a product to manipulate emotion in the Silent Majority." Mailer's use of the -oid suffix (which traces back to the ancient Greek word eidos, meaning "appearance" or "form") follows in the pattern of humanoid: just as a humanoid appears to be human but is not, a factoid appears to be factual but is not. The word has since evolved so that now it most often refers to things that decidedly are facts, just not ones that are significant.

Director Jeff Zimbalist's latest film, HOW TO COME ALIVE WITH NORMAN MAILER, explores the rollercoaster life of America's most controversial and bestselling author of the 20th Century, Norman Mailer. Prophet, hedonist, violent criminal, literary outlaw, and social provocateur, Mailer's ideas about love, anger, fear, and courage cut to the core of human nature, are more relevant than ever today, and point to a prescription for waking ourselves up, shaking free of society's expectations, and coming alive as a people. Jeff shares with Tiller his familiarity with Norman Mailer prior to embarking on the film (2:50), why he ended the film with Norman “getting right with God” (10:00), what Norman means to be “an intellectual rascal” (17:00), how Jeff brought Mailer to life as the first-person perspective of the film (23:00), pitching the film as commercially viable (32:00), the importance of producers who still take a leap of faith in today's fraught documentary market (38:00), and how artists can access the depths of their minds (41:00).  Produced by: Jacob Miller Executive Producer: Tiller Russell Music by: James Carroll, Graham Tracey & Zydepunk Distributed by: Jake Brennan & Brady Sadler, Double Elvis Productions

John Buffalo Mailer joins host Robin Milling to discuss How To Come Alive With Norman Mailer (A Cautionary Tale). Directed by Jeff Zimbalist, it's a warts-and-all documentary about his father, where he and most of his nine siblings from Mailer's six marriages, and other relatives look back on their relationship with Mailer, who was infamous and controversial to the public but represented something very different to them. Buffalo, an executive producer on the project, openly tells Robin thoughts and feelings only he could have experienced as the youngest son and only child of Mailer and Norris Church Mailer. He reflects on those moments and hopes the film, which explores Mailer's ideas about love, anger, fear, and courage will inspire younger generations to tackle their own challenges and perhaps look at society a little differently.

Jill K DeWit: And I'm Jill DeWit and this is the Land Academy Show. Today's episode number 2,002. Isn't that crazy? Steven Jack Butala: That's nuts. Jill K DeWit: I know. Steven Jack Butala: Today, we're going to talk about the five pro tips that Jill and I have lived by for pricing your land-flipping mailer. This is a real hot topic on the Internet and in our- Jill K DeWit: In our group. Steven Jack Butala: ... Land Academy Discord channel among our group, exactly. It's real interesting because we have some new people right now that ... pricing's just always a hot topic and we're getting a lot of orders at Offers 2 Owners, I'm hearing, from our guys, the mailing company that Jill and I own, and there's a pretty wide variance between how offers are getting priced by people who are within Land Academy and people who are not. My guys are ending up having to have a pretty detailed conversation about how pricing should go, so I figured we'll just lop it into the podcast. Jill K DeWit: I love it. Steven Jack Butala: Each week on the show, we answer a question from our Land Academy member Discord forum and take a deep dive into a land-related topic by popular request from our Land Academy community. Let's take a question, Jill. Jill K DeWit: Sid wrote, "Blind offers work! I just had a great conversation with a seller because, one," this is interesting, "I was the fifth offer in six months, but all were neutral letters with no price." Steven Jack Butala: That tells me ... I'm going to take these as I go here. It tells me that he's getting a lot of offers, or his seller now has gotten a lot of offers from people who are not in our Land Academy group. There's other groups out there who are, I think, incorrectly instructing people on how to buy land. Jill K DeWit: Then, what they went on to say is any phone calls she made were not returned and, since I was the only blind offer of X price, she decided to call." Isn't that great? Then, number two, "She was amazed that I answered the phone and was the same guy that sent the letter. After I explained who we are, our procedures, et cetera, we agreed to a price. Still need boots on the ground to confirm, but should be another one in title by the end of the week." The moral is keep mailing legitimate blind offers and answer the phone. That's so true. Steven Jack Butala: Jill and I, we say this stuff ... what, we've been doing this now 10 years, right? Almost 10 years. Jill K DeWit: Nine years of Land Academy, shoot, 15 years of deals together and then you have 10 or 15 before me. Steven Jack Butala: This experience is one that we experience in our land office every week but, when your father says something or when your spouse says something, you're like, "Eh, whatever. He's just talking again." Jill K DeWit: What? Steven Jack Butala: But if somebody else says it, like Sid, one of our members, you start to listen. Jill K DeWit: Can we just explain it real quick for a minute? Steven Jack Butala: Sure. Jill K DeWit: For people ... just to make sure everyone knows what we're talking about. When we're sending ... what we're doing, Land Academy ...

The 2024 primaries are going to be incredibly important to the future of the Kentucky House, and I'll go over why. Rep.

Jill K DeWit: Yep. Steven J Butala: Let's take the first question. Jill K DeWit: All right, Greg Rhodes, "Wrapping up my fourth year with Land Academy," congratulations. Did you see, I don't know if you read our newsletter, but that we highlighted all the first year people, we highlighted the five-year people. I was just... Sorry Greg, I want to pause for just a moment and just talk about that for just a second. The right people get in here and you're with us, man, and we're on this journey together. And as your business grows and your needs change and whatever it is, which we are right here with you, we've been that way from day one. "Hey, we need this product." "All right, I think we can do this." "Hey, we need help solving this problem." "Okay, we could do this." "Oh, hey, DataTree is not working, we need help with another alternative data solution." "All right, we got this." If I was on my own, I'd be- Steven J Butala: Oh geez. Jill K DeWit: I would not be successful. Steven J Butala: I'll tell you, that's what we want. That's what Jill and I want. We want this to be doing transactions with the same people forever. We are not in the business of onboarding- Jill K DeWit: Turn and burn. Steven J Butala: 42 new people who don't understand the relevance of a deed in a real estate transaction. So thank you Greg, we're glad you're here too. Jill K DeWit: Same. Thank you. All right, so back to Greg's question. So, "Wrapping up my fourth year in Land Academy and each year has been more profitable than the previous, more than doubled my profits this year compared to last. I gave my," what a great note, "I gave my W2 boss my letter of resignation yesterday. That was exciting. Looking forward to keep building in the years to come." Steven J Butala: I thought he was going to say, "I gave my W2 boss the middle finger." Jill K DeWit: Maybe that was hidden in the resignation. It was drawn very lightly on the paper. Steven J Butala: Congratulations, Greg. We're super glad you're here and let us know, and this goes for anybody who's been a Land Academy member for more than a year, let us know if you have a new product idea, if there's something that you think we're better together. Jill and I have a whole big list, in fact we're meeting on this right after we record this,
