Trying to Sell a Conservative Book? Go on a Podcast.
In his new book, 'The Disenlightenment,' the playwright David Mamet calls President Donald Trump 'a hero' who saved America from lawlessness and corruption, slams liberals as 'the enemy of Constitutional democracy' and argues that free speech is under assault from the left. These positions put Mamet — a self-described former 'brain-dead liberal' — at odds with most of his peers in the left-leaning entertainment world, where he's celebrated for acclaimed plays like 'Glengarry Glen Ross' and 'Speed-the-Plow.' But Mamet has found a receptive audience for his hard right polemics on podcasts, where he has been energetically plugging his book. To promote 'The Disenlightenment,' which was released this month by the conservative imprint Broadside, Mamet made appearances on a constellation of podcasts — among them popular shows hosted by the military historian and conservative commentator Victor Davis Hanson, the comedian Adam Carolla, the TV host Mike Rowe and the pundit Hugh Hewitt. He also chatted with the music producer Rick Rubin and the comedian and TV host Bill Maher, a Democrat, who, in a testy exchange, challenged Mamet on his unfounded claim that the 2020 election was stolen from Trump. Mamet's provocative performances made ripples of news: His podcast exchanges were written up in HuffPost, The Daily Beast and Mediate. The book shot up into the top 50 on Amazon's best-seller list. And strong first week sales drove it onto The New York Times nonfiction best-seller list, where it debuted at No. 13. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
