| 46 || 2017-09-17 || Dwight Macdonald || Justin and Mike Lennon discuss Norman Mailer’s friendship with literary critic and essayist Dwight Macdonald. In 1974, Mailer wrote the [[Preface to Discriminations|preface]] for Macdonald’s ''Discriminations: Essays & Afterthoughts''. This brief consideration not only reads as an affectionate honorarium to Macdonald, whom Mailer first met in 1949, but also tells of the influence the former editor of ''Partisan Review'' had on Mailer. Both men share a varied attack on style, but also focus, in the vein of Hemingway, on a means in which one can explore the “feel” of phenomenon. || [https://archive.org/details/nms-podcast-46 Archive] || [https://archive.org/download/nms-podcast-46/nms-podcast-46.mp3 MP3] | |||

| 47 || 2018-01-26 || Lennon on Mailer & Malaquais || Justin talks with J. Michael Lennon about Norman Mailer’s friendship with French writer Jean Malaquais, who was one of the writer’s greatest influences. Often Mailer’s harshest critic, Malaquais served up a partial inspiration for Mailer’s landmark essay, “The White Negro.” The pair had a falling out in 1994 following a joint appearance on a French television series — which is also excerpted in this special episode. Read “[[My Friend, Jean Malaquais]],” Mailer’s introduction to ''The Joker'' by Jean Malaquais. || [https://archive.org/details/nms-podcast-46 Archive] || [https://archive.org/download/nms-podcast-46/nms-podcast-46.mp3 MP3] | |||
