With restoration work on 0:07:22.080 --> 0:07:27.360 the historic Magic Castle building ongoing, this season's outing has 0:07:27.400 --> 0:07:31.040 been moved down the block to the landmark Hollywood United 0:07:31.160 --> 0:07:36.280 Methodist Church. Does that ring a bell to anyone? In 0:07:36.280 --> 0:07:36.680 the room. 0:07:36.800 --> 0:07:39.480 No, But isn't that isn't that a conflict of interest? Like, 0:07:39.520 --> 0:07:42.200 don't some people think magic is like the devil's work? 0:07:42.320 --> 0:07:43.840 And now you're bringing it into a church. 0:07:44.240 --> 0:07:45.320 Why do we know that church? 0:07:46.240 --> 0:07:46.400 Oh? 0:07:46.480 --> 0:07:48.800 Is that like a John ostein something or other? 0:07:49.800 --> 0:07:53.720 Josh, do you know that church? There's your hint. 0:07:53.960 --> 0:07:58.320 Oh, it's like Gorilla monsoon from there. 0:08:00.080 --> 0:08:05.720 In a random pull. Due to its convenient location near 0:08:05.800 --> 0:08:09.640 several Hollywood studios, the church has been frequently used as 0:08:09.680 --> 0:08:14.480 a filming location for movies Back to the Future, Thank You, Diane. 0:08:14.760 --> 0:08:18.080 They used the church's gymnasium for the Enchantment under the 0:08:18.120 --> 0:08:21.720 Sea dance. They also did the talent show scene and 0:08:21.760 --> 0:08:22.240 that thing you. 0:08:22.240 --> 0:08:26.160 Do What's the Bigger Loser one, Diane. 0:08:29.160 --> 0:08:31.800 Interior scenes for the movie Sister Act were filmed there. 0:08:31.840 --> 0:08:33.920 Oh, where am I going? 0:08:34.600 --> 0:08:35.800 My big Mama's house. 0:08:36.600 --> 0:08:40.720 That's a good show. Hi, Elliet in the morning. 0:08:41.440 --> 0:08:42.120 Hi, good morning. 0:08:42.200 --> 0:08:43.320 Hey are you a magician? 0:08:44.160 --> 0:08:46.360 I am. I'm not doing it as much as I 0:08:46.480 --> 0:08:49.800 used to, but I used to perform for at bars, restaurants, 0:08:49.840 --> 0:08:51.920 corporate events. It was always a side gig, though it 0:08:51.960 --> 0:08:53.800 was never a time career for me. 0:08:54.080 --> 0:08:56.480 I think that's awesome, though, I think that were you good? 0:08:57.640 --> 0:08:58.280 I was? 0:08:58.320 --> 0:08:59.760 I mean, not to toot my own horn. I feel 0:08:59.800 --> 0:09:02.360 like I'm was very good. And it was surprising to 0:09:02.400 --> 0:09:04.880 my fellow magicians who were making a career out of 0:09:04.920 --> 0:09:07.320 it that I didn't pursue it as a career. But 0:09:07.440 --> 0:09:09.200 I just thought once it turned into a job, I 0:09:09.280 --> 0:09:11.959 just wouldn't probably like it anymore. So that's why I 0:09:12.040 --> 0:09:13.640 chose not to really do it as a career. 0:09:13.960 --> 0:09:16.680 Is it is it a hard Is it a hard 0:09:16.720 --> 0:09:17.760 feel to break into? 0:09:18.640 --> 0:09:20.959 I think if you're older, yes, I mean I kind 0:09:20.960 --> 0:09:22.720 of got into it when I was about twelve years old. 0:09:23.160 --> 0:09:26.360 I kind of watched the first David Blaine special and 0:09:26.400 --> 0:09:29.120 then I was hooked. And then once I realized anybody 0:09:29.120 --> 0:09:32.079 could learn it, I just kind of it just kind 0:09:32.080 --> 0:09:34.319 of clicked for me. And it's a lot of work, 0:09:34.360 --> 0:09:37.600 it's a lot of practice, but anybody theoretically could learn it. 0:09:37.600 --> 0:09:39.640 It's really not that difficult. You just need time and 0:09:39.679 --> 0:09:41.960 patience and the willing to master it. 0:09:42.000 --> 0:09:45.480 Basically, can I ask you this is it? Like I do? 0:09:45.559 --> 0:09:50.240 I love magic. I think it is a very clever 0:09:50.559 --> 0:09:53.640 art form. Like I really like it, and. 0:09:54.080 --> 0:09:56.400 Like I don't know, like don't they always say, like 0:09:56.440 --> 0:09:59.480 you either make something disappear. 0:09:59.080 --> 0:10:01.480 Make something appear, or make something change. I don't know 0:10:01.600 --> 0:10:03.120 Melzer said it at some point. 0:10:03.800 --> 0:10:05.640 Yeah, there's exactly. 0:10:05.679 --> 0:10:09.880 But there's there's a million different ways to accomplish I 0:10:09.880 --> 0:10:12.840 don't want to say the same thing. And much like 0:10:12.920 --> 0:10:15.720 being a comedian, like you don't want to steal someone 0:10:15.760 --> 0:10:18.440 else's joke, so you're not trying to steal someone else's bit, 0:10:18.840 --> 0:10:21.000 but I'm still making a quarter up here from behind 0:10:21.040 --> 0:10:23.880 your ear. But like if you're a fan of it 0:10:24.000 --> 0:10:27.200 and then you learn how to do it, is there 0:10:27.559 --> 0:10:30.240 is the same wonder there, you know what I mean? 0:10:30.280 --> 0:10:32.440 Like I love magic, but I don't want to know 0:10:32.480 --> 0:10:34.839 how it's done. But if I wanted to do it, 0:10:34.880 --> 0:10:36.520 I would have to know how it's done. 0:10:37.400 --> 0:10:40.240 Yeah, I like it to building a house. You give 0:10:40.320 --> 0:10:43.079 somebody a hammer, nails, and some wood, and three different 0:10:43.080 --> 0:10:46.400 people are going to build three different houses. And once 0:10:46.440 --> 0:10:49.280 you have the tools and the basic building blocks, you 0:10:49.320 --> 0:10:52.120 can kind of start forming your own ideas and your 0:10:52.160 --> 0:10:53.880 own solutions to things. 0:10:54.559 --> 0:10:54.719 You know. 0:10:54.760 --> 0:10:57.320 I was at the point I finally got to the 0:10:57.320 --> 0:11:00.120 point in magic where everything became so second nature. I 0:11:00.160 --> 0:11:02.840 was almost hoping that I would screw up in front 0:11:02.880 --> 0:11:04.760 of people and make a mistake so I could then 0:11:04.880 --> 0:11:06.560 figure out a way how to get out of it. 0:11:06.960 --> 0:11:09.760 Because doing just regular magic started to get boring. I 0:11:09.800 --> 0:11:11.880 was like, hey, I need a challenge here. So if 0:11:11.880 --> 0:11:13.480 I would make a mistake because they would pick the 0:11:13.480 --> 0:11:15.400 wrong card or whatever, I would have to kind of 0:11:15.440 --> 0:11:17.480 come up on the fly with ways to get out 0:11:17.480 --> 0:11:19.800 of it and you know, switch it around it and 0:11:19.880 --> 0:11:23.440 maybe go into something else. It would have no you know, 0:11:23.440 --> 0:11:25.080 the person I'm doing it too would have no idea. 0:11:25.120 --> 0:11:27.040 But it became a challenge for me because I was 0:11:27.120 --> 0:11:29.600 I'm a close up magician. I always do card magic, 0:11:29.640 --> 0:11:32.120 coin stuff, very close up, intimate kind of stuff. 0:11:32.160 --> 0:11:33.000 Is what I do. 0:11:33.000 --> 0:11:33.840 Do you do? 0:11:33.920 --> 0:11:38.199 You still kind of keep abreast of the magic world. 0:11:39.000 --> 0:11:41.560 I'm not as in tune with the community as much, 0:11:41.640 --> 0:11:43.840 but I am still always shuffling a duck of cards. 0:11:43.880 --> 0:11:45.520 I got a deck of cards at my office on 0:11:45.559 --> 0:11:48.200 my desk and my desk at home. I'm always playing around, 0:11:48.679 --> 0:11:50.680 you know, maybe showing somebody at work something. But I 0:11:50.760 --> 0:11:53.800 don't I don't perform perform anymore like I used to. 0:11:53.840 --> 0:11:55.800 But when I do get asked to come to a 0:11:55.840 --> 0:11:58.400 birthday party or something, my friends having something to do, 0:11:58.440 --> 0:11:59.719 I'll bring a duck of cards and it all just 0:11:59.800 --> 0:12:02.760 kind of comes back to me like it's muscle memory. Yeah, 0:12:02.840 --> 0:12:04.640 like I'm telling me, I'll probably never forget but. 0:12:04.960 --> 0:12:07.120 The last time and now listen, I mean, you've got 0:12:07.120 --> 0:12:09.200 it as muscle memory. The only person I know is 0:12:09.240 --> 0:12:10.600 Seth who owns i MP. 0:12:11.400 --> 0:12:13.160 He like, if you go to dinner with him, he'll 0:12:13.200 --> 0:12:15.120 bring a deck of cards and he'll do magic while 0:12:15.120 --> 0:12:18.880 you eat the I mean, I'm sure he's gotten better 0:12:18.960 --> 0:12:20.920 than the last time that I saw him do it. 0:12:21.160 --> 0:12:23.200 But here's what I was going to ask you. Are 0:12:23.240 --> 0:12:25.880 you when when? When I say, do you keep up? 0:12:26.120 --> 0:12:31.160 Do you believe this hiring a magician has become a 0:12:31.200 --> 0:12:33.120 big thing at bachelorette parties. 0:12:37.440 --> 0:12:42.160 I do, actually, but but almost I feel like it's 0:12:42.240 --> 0:12:44.520 almost because I think I heard a similar story to 0:12:44.600 --> 0:12:47.920 this one. But they almost hire like a super old, 0:12:48.040 --> 0:12:51.760 corny magician, almost as a joke to the to the bride. 0:12:52.040 --> 0:12:55.160 Oh no, this doesn't I do. I do understand that 0:12:55.320 --> 0:12:58.040 you're expecting a stripper, but no, I do understand what 0:12:58.080 --> 0:12:59.440 you're saying. But here's what they said. 0:12:59.480 --> 0:13:01.760 It says the past couple of years, there's been a 0:13:01.800 --> 0:13:07.720 big shift away from traditional bachelorette entertainment. According to this 0:13:07.760 --> 0:13:11.359 one magician that they talk to every group of bridesmaid 0:13:11.360 --> 0:13:14.320 who books me says the same thing. They want something 0:13:14.520 --> 0:13:18.760 everyone can participate in and enjoy without being made to 0:13:18.880 --> 0:13:20.760 feel awkward or tacky. 0:13:21.120 --> 0:13:21.920 So if you said to. 0:13:21.880 --> 0:13:24.480 Your friends, hey, we're gonna bring over a stripper and 0:13:24.840 --> 0:13:27.160 we're all gonna drink out of penis straws and all that, 0:13:27.480 --> 0:13:29.839 there may be people in the group that are like, uh, 0:13:30.840 --> 0:13:33.960 so you're either pressured or bullied into doing it, or 0:13:34.440 --> 0:13:37.360 you're you're an outsider and you can't go. So they said, 0:13:37.600 --> 0:13:40.960 if we bring in something that is inclusive for everybody, 0:13:41.360 --> 0:13:47.600 and that magicians are making bank at at at bachelorette. 0:13:46.840 --> 0:13:50.200 Parties, I mean there is definitely some truth there. 0:13:50.280 --> 0:13:51.920 I mean, you know, the past couple of years, there's 0:13:51.960 --> 0:13:54.920 been a resurgence of magic with with you know, magicians 0:13:54.960 --> 0:13:57.200 that are on America's Got Talent and all those types 0:13:57.240 --> 0:13:59.719 of shows and tell their fool us there's all those 0:13:59.760 --> 0:14:02.199 kinds of that are kind of there is a resurgence 0:14:02.240 --> 0:14:05.520 of magic. So I definitely don't disbelieve that that statement. 0:14:05.520 --> 0:14:07.599 I'd be curious to know what magician they talked to 0:14:07.679 --> 0:14:09.079 that said that is that. I don't know if that's 0:14:09.080 --> 0:14:10.000 in your article there. 0:14:10.440 --> 0:14:11.839 Tristan McLendon. 0:14:12.640 --> 0:14:15.160 Now, I don't know that name, and I know quite 0:14:15.160 --> 0:14:17.520 a I know quite a few magicians over the years 0:14:17.559 --> 0:14:19.880 i've been I've lived in a few different states over 0:14:19.880 --> 0:14:21.240 the country, so I've had a lot of magicians in 0:14:21.280 --> 0:14:23.280 a lot of different areas. But yeah, that's the name 0:14:23.280 --> 0:14:24.960 I don't I'm not familiar with. 0:14:25.120 --> 0:14:29.560 They also said magic is multi generational, so it's not like, yeah, 0:14:29.600 --> 0:14:31.040 so it's not like, hey, we're going to have a 0:14:31.040 --> 0:14:33.480 bachelorette party, so you know, it's all my you know, 0:14:34.400 --> 0:14:36.960 late twenty early thirty year olds and like maybe some 0:14:37.080 --> 0:14:40.680 answer or something who don't mind seeing some wang, But it's. 0:14:40.240 --> 0:14:42.840 Everybody can go. Everybody can enjoy. 0:14:42.640 --> 0:14:44.960 Magic, beauty of it, and that's that's what I like 0:14:45.000 --> 0:14:46.760 about it. And I can perform the same thing to 0:14:46.800 --> 0:14:49.920 a ninety year old at a senior's home or or 0:14:49.960 --> 0:14:52.560 a five year old kid, you know, and everything in between. 0:14:52.600 --> 0:14:54.040 And that's that's what I used to do. I used 0:14:54.040 --> 0:14:56.000 to do everything in between, and that that's what I 0:14:56.080 --> 0:14:58.800 like about it. It's just it's it's you can perform 0:14:58.880 --> 0:15:02.040 for somebody that's you can perform for somebody that doesn't 0:15:02.040 --> 0:15:03.040 speak to Lange speak. 0:15:03.080 --> 0:15:05.000 Your language is Mortgage. 0:15:05.320 --> 0:15:07.600 It's very multifaceted I've learned over the years. 0:15:07.680 --> 0:15:10.280 Love it, love it. Hey, you're a great ambassador for it. 0:15:10.320 --> 0:15:11.040 I appreciate it. 0:15:11.080 --> 0:15:11.320 Thank you. 0:15:11.360 --> 0:15:13.440 Wait, hold on, guy, does he know I see so there? 0:15:13.520 --> 0:15:13.680 Yeah? 0:15:13.720 --> 0:15:16.120 You're you're there? Right? Yeah, yeah, I didn't make him disappear. 0:15:16.200 --> 0:15:18.600 Do you know the magician Eric Willzig? 0:15:19.720 --> 0:15:20.000 I do. 0:15:20.400 --> 0:15:23.040 It's funny you say that because I actually am friends 0:15:23.040 --> 0:15:25.600 with him and I actually put together his promo video 0:15:25.680 --> 0:15:29.440 because my real job is I'm a video motion graphics designer. 0:15:29.920 --> 0:15:31.680 Well, I will say this. I saw him over the 0:15:31.680 --> 0:15:36.000 summer randomly at the Boardwalk Seaside Heights. He was incredible. 0:15:36.560 --> 0:15:38.560 Yeah, yeah, he's fantastic. He does more of the stage 0:15:38.600 --> 0:15:40.560 type of magic. He also does do close up So 0:15:40.560 --> 0:15:42.320 I don't know what show he did for you, because 0:15:42.320 --> 0:15:45.040 he has two different shows. Was it close up magic 0:15:45.080 --> 0:15:46.880 like card stuff or was it stage magic? 0:15:47.000 --> 0:15:49.480 It was more stage because it was a large audience 0:15:49.840 --> 0:15:51.600 right there on the water right, do you know? 0:15:51.640 --> 0:15:54.840 Pika? All right? Very good, very good, Thank you sir, 0:15:55.000 --> 0:15:58.120 thank you. How random is that? I just like, wait, 0:15:58.200 --> 0:15:59.040 is he from here? 0:15:59.200 --> 0:15:59.280 No? 0:15:59.200 --> 0:16:00.280 No, he's a Jersey. 0:16:00.280 --> 0:16:01.840 I sat here the whole time. I'm like, what was 0:16:01.880 --> 0:16:04.200 that guy's name? He was so and I had just 0:16:04.400 --> 0:16:09.640 watched Justin Willman's special on Netflix at the rental and 0:16:09.680 --> 0:16:13.120 then so we told the kids like, oh, let's let's 0:16:13.120 --> 0:16:15.320 see what the entertainment schedule is for the week at 0:16:15.400 --> 0:16:18.560 Seaside and there was a magician listed there and they said, 0:16:18.600 --> 0:16:20.080 is this going to be like Justin Willman? And I 0:16:20.080 --> 0:16:24.720 said probably not. But he was great, like like and 0:16:25.000 --> 0:16:27.520 everything he did mystified me. Where you sit there and 0:16:27.560 --> 0:16:29.080 you're like, how the hell did. 0:16:28.960 --> 0:16:31.080 He do that? And that's the beauty of magic. 0:16:32.640 --> 0:16:35.240 I was really impressed. And it's funny. I probably watched 0:16:35.280 --> 0:16:38.000 the video that he produced, because afterwards I definitely checked 0:16:38.000 --> 0:16:38.920 out some of his stuff. 0:16:39.520 --> 0:16:42.640 But do you do you buy that it's a good 0:16:42.720 --> 0:16:43.600 bachelorette thing? 0:16:44.160 --> 0:16:46.640 If somebody said, you know what, if you were there 0:16:46.720 --> 0:16:49.360 and it happened they like brought out a magician, you 0:16:49.400 --> 0:16:52.080 would think it's fun because you would also think that 0:16:52.120 --> 0:16:55.720 they got somebody who like is making I'm making this 0:16:55.880 --> 0:16:57.760 up right, I'm not a magician, but like they're making 0:16:57.800 --> 0:17:00.920 garters disappear or you know, like they're making their titties 0:17:01.000 --> 0:17:04.639 up here like whatever.
