40
00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:58,720
Speaker 2: In my mind when I read read it for like

41
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 2: the last fifteen years, in my mind been saying.

42
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 1: Up, well it's cly not wrong. Yeah, so it's pretty nice.

43
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:05,360
Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, there should be a little to learn a

44
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:08,200
Speaker 2: lot today, Learn a lot today. O dot p Yeah,

45
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 2: they should put dots in between. Sorry, friend terrupting, You're fine.

46
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 1: So here's the thing that does bother me. Multiple times

47
00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 1: a day, he shows me a magic trick he's been

48
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 1: working on. As he's working on the tricks, it usually

49
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,799
Speaker 1: is the same trick multiple times in a row. As

50
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,359
Speaker 1: of ladies been asking me to drop what I'm doing

51
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:31,120
Speaker 1: to watch him do the trick, expecting a massive reaction.

52
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:33,679
Speaker 1: And I do feel for him and try to give

53
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 1: a big reaction when I can, but lately it's been

54
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,880
Speaker 1: at some pretty inconvenient times, and I've seen the same

55
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 1: trick countless times before. Would I be the a hole

56
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 1: if I reacted in a lesser way or asked him

57
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 1: to stop showing me tricks while I'm in the middle

58
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:52,639
Speaker 1: of something. Would I be the worst if I didn't

59
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 1: watch them all? He is a genuinely good magician, But

60
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:59,840
Speaker 1: I've watched the tricks being done so many times that

61
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,520
Speaker 1: it feels like a kid asking to show his mom

62
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:06,680
Speaker 1: a dance routine. I mean, do have an update, but yeah.

63
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:09,920
Speaker 2: Okay, So I'm torn here because part of me, like

64
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 2: my ego, is saying, you know, like, why wouldn't someone

65
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 2: want to watch magic all the time? Because it's great?

66
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:18,680
Speaker 2: That's why I'm a magician. I love doing it, but

67
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 2: I get it like some magicians are torturous with this,

68
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 2: you know, like because it ticks, like when you when

69
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 2: you want to learn the trick, it does tick like

70
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 2: endless endless practice, right, And if you have someone trusted,

71
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:33,000
Speaker 2: you know, like you're usually it's you know, in my kiss,

72
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 2: it's my wife, so like you know, I can torture

73
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 2: her all day and she kind of she has to

74
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 2: watch them because she's married to me, you know, whereas

75
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 2: this person, you know, they can walk out her any moment.

76
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,240
Speaker 2: You know that they're just housemits remits as you say,

77
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 2: so uh yeah. And then like also, you know, I

78
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 2: think some magicians like so you obviously want to practice

79
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 2: on someone that you know you can trust because you're

80
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:58,280
Speaker 2: going to get it wrong, like you know, a thousand times.

81
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 2: But then you do build resent, you know, with this

82
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:02,520
Speaker 2: born person who's like just trying to like you know,

83
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 2: walk into the bathroom and you're like, hey, look at me.

84
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, it's like I see, I know what

85
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:09,120
Speaker 1: you're gonna do. I know it's gonna be the Seventh Clubs.

86
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 1: I know that you wrote my name on the card

87
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 1: and it's in behind my ear, we've done this.

88
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:16,919
Speaker 2: But at the same time, you know, she has to

89
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:19,200
Speaker 2: tread carefully, like, you know, don't hurt the guy's feelings. Like,

90
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:21,640
Speaker 2: you know, like it is important that we do need

91
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:25,160
Speaker 2: those trusted people sometimes just to you know, help us

92
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:26,719
Speaker 2: get to the point where we can then bring it

93
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 2: onto a la audience, you know, like a regular audience.

94
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 2: But he needs to you know, like a lot of magicians,

95
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,240
Speaker 2: they get into magic because they do have this like

96
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,000
Speaker 2: look at me kind of thing, you know, like there

97
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:40,120
Speaker 2: is a bit of a you know, like we were

98
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 2: the dorks in school, right, you know what I mean,

99
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,240
Speaker 2: Like we like magic is not cool, guys, Like, I'm

100
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:47,039
Speaker 2: sorry to tell you, is this like we may think

101
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,680
Speaker 2: it is. I'm talking to other magicians here, It's not

102
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:52,360
Speaker 2: really that cool. Like we, you know what, we were

103
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,440
Speaker 2: the nerds in school. We're not the jocks who got

104
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 2: all the attention for you know, playing sports or cool

105
00:04:58,760 --> 00:04:59,280
Speaker 2: things like that.

106
00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:01,560
Speaker 1: Alex, because I'm coming with the truth, with the truth,

107
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:02,640
Speaker 1: the hard truth.

108
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,839
Speaker 2: I'm here to tell the truth about magic, so apart

109
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:09,120
Speaker 2: from the secrets count that. But yeah, so like there

110
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:11,600
Speaker 2: is this kind of like neediness sometimes with magicians to

111
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:13,039
Speaker 2: be to be looked out and watched.

112
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I just think if OP just would kind

113
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,240
Speaker 1: of take the same proch of like just literally saying, hey,

114
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 1: I just I just can't do it as much. Yeah,

115
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 1: it's just about setting that boundary and being like, I

116
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,800
Speaker 1: don't hate magic. I don't think OP is a magic hater. No,

117
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:28,680
Speaker 1: I just think they're a little overblown.

118
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, like you have to you have to just go, Hey,

119
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:34,760
Speaker 2: listen high byde between the rs of you know, five

120
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:36,679
Speaker 2: o'clock and five oh five.

121
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, you get five minutes.

122
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:40,240
Speaker 2: Five minutes a day. Yeah, per day.

123
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:41,279
Speaker 1: You know it's perfect.

124
00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:41,920
Speaker 2: That's all you need.

125
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:44,880
Speaker 1: Well, here's the update. I did speak to him this

126
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:48,039
Speaker 1: afternoon after he tried to show me a bunch more

127
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:50,560
Speaker 1: tricks while I was in the middle of cleaning. I

128
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:53,160
Speaker 1: ended up saying that I'm supportive of him and his

129
00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:56,479
Speaker 1: magic and that I'm happy to watch when I'm not

130
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,279
Speaker 1: in the middle of something. I also asked why he

131
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:02,600
Speaker 1: wants me to want watch them and how else I

132
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 1: could support him. He ended up getting angry at me,

133
00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:10,679
Speaker 1: saying that I was over communicating and that he didn't

134
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 1: need to hear about it. He started saying that I

135
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 1: didn't care about him or his magic, and that he

136
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:17,200
Speaker 1: wants me to leave him alone.

137
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:18,280
Speaker 2: Oh my god.

138
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,680
Speaker 1: Okay, well, I guess in a way problem solved right now,

139
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 1: you know, maybe you've got a new problem and that

140
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:27,039
Speaker 1: your vibes with your roommate are now really uncomfortable.

141
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:30,880
Speaker 2: But remember I was saying that magicians are dorks. Okay,

142
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,360
Speaker 2: there we go. Yeah, point proven by this.

143
00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 1: Guy that was certainly.

144
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:36,680
Speaker 2: Is this in la.

145
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 1: I have no idea where this is.

146
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 3: I'll see if I can find it.

147
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 2: I probably know this person. I have a few ideas.

148
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,920
Speaker 1: During this whole discussion, he was on his phone and

149
00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:52,080
Speaker 1: actively trying to ignore me as I spoke. I don't

150
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 1: feel like I've reached an understanding about this, but what

151
00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:57,520
Speaker 1: can you do? Thanks for the advice. Everyone.

152
00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:01,680
Speaker 2: Hey, so this is a girl doing the message and

153
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 2: it's a guy.

154
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:04,279
Speaker 1: No, I think it's the girl was the poster, and

155
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:05,680
Speaker 1: then the guy was the magic.

156
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:08,280
Speaker 2: The girl was the op as you said, yes, and

157
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:10,560
Speaker 2: then the magicians a dude. It could there be like

158
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,440
Speaker 2: some sort of other underlying thing here, like the guy

159
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 2: is yeah, he thinks like like a lot of magicians.

160
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:18,800
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna lie. I was a young man once

161
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 2: because they were like twenty something.

162
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:23,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, early twenty twenty three, twenty, Yeah.

163
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:26,000
Speaker 2: Another thing dropping the hard truths here. Some of us

164
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:30,160
Speaker 2: sometimes think that the magic is, you know, away into

165
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 2: the hearts of the ladies, and maybe his heart also

166
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 2: got broken here.

167
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:33,720
Speaker 1: Yeah.

168
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 2: Maybe there's some sort of longing going on.

169
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:37,400
Speaker 1: Here, right. I think he really nailed that one.

170
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:39,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, the fact that he was burned so hard. There,

171
00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:40,880
Speaker 2: there's more going on here.

172
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:43,440
Speaker 1: He was he was flirting via magic.

173
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, because he doesn't know how to flirt any

174
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 2: other way. You know. That's again, that's kind.

175
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 1: Of like every magician knows.

176
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 4: Magic is hot, super hot, so hot people don't know

177
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:55,640
Speaker 4: what to do themselves, and they tell you to stop

178
00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 4: doing magic around you because it's just too hot.

179
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 1: Can take it?

180
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:02,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's my prediction.

181
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 3: We do have a funny comment on here. Someone goes

182
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:08,560
Speaker 3: ask him to show you his vanishing tricks, and she said, brilliant.

183
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 1: Really, I think what you should do is just practice

184
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,920
Speaker 1: magic yourself and be like, oh, I can't look at

185
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:17,040
Speaker 1: your magic. I'm doing my own magic. I'm actually doing

186
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 1: this is competitive magic.

187
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:22,480
Speaker 3: Become a better magician than him, Yeah, yeah, exactly, Yes.

188
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:25,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, have you ever been in like a magician rivalry

189
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:26,520
Speaker 1: with someone.

190
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:30,720
Speaker 2: Not really, I would have to say most magicians are

191
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,800
Speaker 2: actually very supportive of each other. Yeah, like a lot

192
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:36,040
Speaker 2: of you know, you go up to the Magic Castle

193
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:38,120
Speaker 2: and all here in La like, you know, we all

194
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,560
Speaker 2: hang out. Yeah, we have a good time.

195
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:41,080
Speaker 1: Now.

196
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,439
Speaker 2: I'm pretty fresh off the boat here, you know, so,

197
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 2: like I probably haven't had a time to get under

198
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:48,560
Speaker 2: anyone's skin yet, you know, but I think it's just

199
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 2: a matter of time. You know. I think there are

200
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,600
Speaker 2: some it's going to sign egotistical. It's not I'm going

201
00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 2: to tell you a true thing that happened, okay, right,

202
00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 2: But like there is rivalries I don't think are like

203
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:01,760
Speaker 2: out in the open. A lot of the time. It's

204
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 2: always like this, probably the same with like actors and

205
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:07,920
Speaker 2: stuff like where there's like, hey, I really, I'm really

206
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 2: glad to hear that he's doing great, but they don't

207
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:11,480
Speaker 2: want to hear you're doing two grit.

208
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:15,079
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know the undercurrent. Yeah so yeah, yeah.

209
00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,120
Speaker 2: So I remember there's one time, you know, I was

210
00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:20,760
Speaker 2: because I had this great residency at the Escape Hotel

211
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,640
Speaker 2: which is now sadly closed on Hollywood, and it was

212
00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:26,600
Speaker 2: a stage show and I got this gig just by

213
00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:29,800
Speaker 2: literally once I got my work permit in America, just

214
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:33,079
Speaker 2: walking down Hollywood Boulevard going into places like an idiot

215
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,640
Speaker 2: going hey, I'm a magician. Can I can I have

216
00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:38,600
Speaker 2: a job? You know? And most people were like, uh no,

217
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 2: you're good.

218
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:43,560
Speaker 1: Yeah. Most of the souvenir stands are like we know.

219
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:46,440
Speaker 2: But this one place, like I walked in to talk

220
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:49,160
Speaker 2: to the manager and this guy, this crazy Columbian Coldy

230
00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,319
Speaker 2: build a stage show. He built all the boxes and

231
00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 2: we became great friends and we had a stage show.

232
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,559
Speaker 2: You know, it's really cool and for two years that run.

233
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:20,360

Speaker 2: well done. But yeah, you could tell there's just this

253
00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:01,400
Speaker 2: undercurrent and then I'm sure I know I've done it too,

254
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,200
Speaker 2: especially when I hear what some other agents make financially,

255

Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, you got paid you know, four ground

Speaker 1: You, yeah, really really happy for you.

258
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:17,720
Speaker 2: You know. For the most part, though, like most magicians,

259
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:19,600
Speaker 2: it's a great community for a supportive people.

260
00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:22,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, yeah, they stick together.

261
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:24,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's why we have that club up there.

262
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,040
Speaker 1: You know. Yeah, it sounds like you you met the

263
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:30,200
Speaker 1: perfect guy to get you the uh oh yeah, he

264
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 1: gets you the stage show gone. So he's like, no

265
00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 1: trap door, I don't care what kind of magic we're

266
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 1: gonna figure out door magic.

267
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:41,000
Speaker 2: We didn't get the trap door. Sly, he built some

268
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 2: other really cool things, like like cutting a girl in half.

269
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:45,320
Speaker 2: You know, he built out for me, you know, because

270
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:47,360
Speaker 2: they had a full time handyman. He was like an

271
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:49,640
Speaker 2: engineering guy put together this whole show. So we didn't

272
00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:52,959
Speaker 2: get the trap door. But yeah, he's some people are

273
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:55,640
Speaker 2: like born magic fans, and this guy was won every

274
00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:58,199
Speaker 2: trick you do. He loses his mind. Evan's his name.

275
00:11:58,240 --> 00:11:59,240
Speaker 2: Great guy. Cool.

276
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:02,200
Speaker 1: Well, I'm glad. I wish I could have caught a show.

277
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:04,760
Speaker 2: Hey, we'll be back. We'll be back. We're looking for

278
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:07,800
Speaker 2: a new venue with the trap door, hopefully with it. Okay,

279
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:09,840
Speaker 2: well I counted that anymore because I've given away the trick,

280
00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:11,880
Speaker 2: so there'll be no trap doors.

281
00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:16,320
Speaker 1: It's the trap door. But you fall up really breaking

282
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:20,439
Speaker 1: new ground there you go. Magicians have Reddit. What's one time,

283
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,480
Speaker 1: we're bringing up an audience volunteer didn't go as expected,

284
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:27,480
Speaker 1: and we have some responses. Here, some guy in San Jose,

285
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 1: California says, I've got one. I'm not the magician, but

286
00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 1: I was there to witness the travesty. So, for some

287
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 1: stupid reason, this guy wanted to throw a wedding for

288
00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:42,600
Speaker 1: a couple that moved to the US from India. So

289
00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:45,600
Speaker 1: he throws it at his house and invites pretty much

290
00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:49,920
Speaker 1: mostly Indians. So for entertainment, he hires an Irish magician.

291
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 1: Why I don't know was this you? Did you get

292
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,360
Speaker 1: a job in San Jose, California for an Indian?

293
00:12:56,400 --> 00:13:01,360
Speaker 2: We keep reading, possibly this could be embarrassing.

294
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 1: Now, as an American, most people can understand an Irish

295
00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:10,840
Speaker 1: and an Indian accent. However, an Indian and irishman understanding

296
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:15,840
Speaker 1: each other's accents not so much. And what's particularly worse

297
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:18,760
Speaker 1: is that this is a comedy show, magic show, which

298
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,200
Speaker 1: throws the whole thing out of whack, which is why

299
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:27,080
Speaker 1: American redo British sitcoms like The Office, Understanding accents destroys

300
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:30,600
Speaker 1: comedic timing. Anyway, he tries his stick and none of

301
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:33,560
Speaker 1: it is working. He asks an audience member's name and

302
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:35,960
Speaker 1: starts trying to make a canned joke out of it,

303
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:38,240
Speaker 1: but it's a little hard when you're used to John

304
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:41,560
Speaker 1: and someone says they are rajesh. He tries to make

305
00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:44,560
Speaker 1: a joke about it being unique, but it's not unique

306
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:47,880
Speaker 1: to Indians. He starts asking audience members questions and they

307
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:51,000
Speaker 1: plane don't understand him. He finally decides to ask a

308
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:53,800
Speaker 1: kid to come up, since they grew up in America

309
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:57,040
Speaker 1: and I don't know, lived with Lucky Charms commercials. Anyway,

310
00:13:57,679 --> 00:13:59,480
Speaker 1: This one that seemed.

311
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:00,880
Speaker 2: Like a little bit of a shit shot at the

312
00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:04,560
Speaker 2: Irish straight there ah, yes, the ancient food of the

313
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 2: Irish lugg each arms.

314
00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:11,199
Speaker 1: Anyway, this one kid is so bored when being called

315
00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 1: up that she walks away while she was on stage.

316
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:17,839
Speaker 1: We walked away from the cringe worthiness of it all

317
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,520
Speaker 1: and headed to the living room. He saw him walk

318
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:23,480
Speaker 1: out at the end as the most dejected man I

319
00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:24,360
Speaker 1: have ever seen.

320
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 2: That was not me. To clarify, that was not me, However,

321
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:31,720
Speaker 2: I wish I was there because this signs amazing. Like

322
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 2: I love a car crash sometimes, you know, have.

323
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 1: You ever had someone come up on stage and just

324
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:39,600
Speaker 1: like walk.

325
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 2: Off walk off the I'm glad to say it's never

326
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:44,960
Speaker 2: got that bad, you know. I remember probably one of

327
00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:48,600
Speaker 2: my worst moments, which actually was Grid, was you know,

328
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:51,280
Speaker 2: sometimes when you're doing a trick, you need someone to

329
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:55,320
Speaker 2: use a certain hand so the audience can see better. Yeah,

330
00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:57,360
Speaker 2: like you know, so say, you know, our audience is

331
00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:58,960
Speaker 2: over here, I probably want you to use a hunt

332
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:00,480
Speaker 2: on this site so they can see a rout than

333
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:04,120
Speaker 2: maybe one on this side. So this guy, I was like, okay,

334
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:05,400
Speaker 2: I need to hold out your hand, and he held

335
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:07,440
Speaker 2: out the wrong one. You know, it was kind of awkward,

336
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:09,160
Speaker 2: and the way my body was angle is really awkward.

337
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:11,480
Speaker 2: And I was like, oh, no, hold out the other hand,

338
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 2: and he's like no, and he has He's like he's

339
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 2: got it behind his back. I was like, no, no, hold

340
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,040
Speaker 2: out the other one. And he holds out his other

341
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:22,000
Speaker 2: hand to reveal a stump where his hand used to be.

342
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:26,800
Speaker 2: There was no hand there, and the whole audiences went

343
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:29,200
Speaker 2: bizarre laughing, and I just had to take it on

344
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 2: the chin. You know. Yeah that he was good. He

345
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:32,240
Speaker 2: was He was a good sport about it.

346
00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:35,320
Speaker 1: He knew what he was doing. Yeah, she's setting up

347
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:39,000
Speaker 1: the punch trolling. Yeah, it's kind of like the same

348
00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,240
Speaker 1: energy as like asking like a blind person for a

349
00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:41,760
Speaker 1: high five.

350
00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:44,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, yes, Well.

351
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,800
Speaker 1: Now you know what we'll work with the other hand, Well,

352
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 1: we have another response here from Brundage Magic, says Hi, guys,

353
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 1: magician Stevid Brundage. Here, you might have seen me perform

354
00:15:57,240 --> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 1: rebscute magic somewhere. Does this guy nam.

355
00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:02,200
Speaker 2: Ring not to me? I'm sure maybe he's a well

356
00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:03,560
Speaker 2: known guy. I don't know. There's a lot of magicians

357
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 2: out there.

358
00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 1: And hey, Rubik's cubes aren't magic. It's just algorithms and math.

359
00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:12,040
Speaker 1: There's nothing magic. But well, yeah, I don't know.

360
00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:15,000
Speaker 2: There's definitely no tricks in all with those ruby scub tricks.

361
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:18,240
Speaker 1: So one performance sticks out the most to me. I

362
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:21,040
Speaker 1: performed a trick where I ask a spectator to hold

363
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:23,400
Speaker 1: a Rubics cube in their hand and I make a

364
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:27,320
Speaker 1: card appear inside the Rubik's cube. I street performed around

365
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:30,640
Speaker 1: a few years ago and asked this absolutely beautiful girl

366
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:33,480
Speaker 1: to please hold out your left hand, and the crowd

367
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:36,800
Speaker 1: got very silent, and I had no idea why. Then

368
00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,440
Speaker 1: I looked over to the girl and she was missing

369
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 1: her entire left arm. From the elbow down.

370
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 2: Thank god, it's not only me making this dumb asthma stick.

371
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:49,680
Speaker 1: Well, this is a little worse because that was the

372
00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:52,160
Speaker 1: hole from the elbow down. Elbow do this was just

373
00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:58,200
Speaker 1: the hand. This is missing the entire appendage. What are

374
00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:01,360
Speaker 1: the chances, this guy continues, I was stunned and didn't

375
00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:04,040
Speaker 1: know what to say. She came to my rescue and said,

376
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:09,000
Speaker 1: can you make it grow back? It's gotta be rough

377
00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:11,479
Speaker 1: when you go No, No, I can't. Oh I can

378
00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:12,760
Speaker 1: just make rube's cubes.

379
00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:14,560
Speaker 2: How old was this girl?

380
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:17,199
Speaker 1: Again, I don't think they gave an age, but but

381
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:17,840
Speaker 1: that is grit.

382
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:19,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, very witty, well done.

383
00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:21,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, she's clearly she knows how to stick and move.

384
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:24,720
Speaker 1: The crowd had a good laugh and I was mortified.

385
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:27,760
Speaker 1: And then you know, and that's that, you move, move on.

386
00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:30,760
Speaker 1: That was a good one. That's great, honest mistake, you know,

387
00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:35,479
Speaker 1: honest mistake. It'd be way crazier if you called her

388
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:37,520
Speaker 1: up on purpose to do like and I'm going to

389
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:39,800
Speaker 1: make your arm grow back, and then you made a

390
00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:41,760
Speaker 1: joke about it. It's like, oh, I guess the magic's

391
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:42,679
Speaker 1: not working today.

392
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:44,879
Speaker 2: At least at least makes her harder. For you to

393
00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:47,680
Speaker 2: grab try and grab you, you know, which is something

394
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:49,359
Speaker 2: that happens a lot. You know, they're trying to like

395
00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:51,239
Speaker 2: put your hand up your sleeve and everything. You know,

396
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:53,400
Speaker 2: at least you're only looking after really one hand there.

397
00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:56,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, yeah, I remember that less to look

398
00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:57,199
Speaker 1: out for.

399
00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:00,359
Speaker 2: When I got to l a like I uh venue

400
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:04,040
Speaker 2: at this capital, I had this my big everyone has

Speaker 2: their la celebrity story.

402

Speaker 1: Huh.

403
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:10,600
Speaker 2: I had to sign a non disclosure agreement, so I

404
00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:12,800
Speaker 2: can't say who it was. Oh okay, but there was

405
00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:16,240
Speaker 2: a celebrity came in and would not keep her hands

406
00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:18,800
Speaker 2: from up my sleeves, like was constantly grobbing.

407
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:19,000
Speaker 1: You know.

408
00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 2: She was sending her with her husband. Well say she

00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:25,280

Speaker 2: when she met her husband. Helen Mirren, Helen Merrin, Yes, damit.

411
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:34,119
Speaker 1: Helen Mirren's are notorious putting her hands up your sleeves.

412
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:39,760
Speaker 1: That's why I love her. But she's a crazy but yeah,

413
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:40,479
Speaker 1: pray Hansi.

414
00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:41,960
Speaker 2: Helen Merrin.

415
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:48,359
Speaker 1: We've got another from Leo kat This is a bit

416
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 1: off topic, but I feel like it belongs here. My

417
00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:54,360
Speaker 1: father is the son of a relatively well known magician

418
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:56,840
Speaker 1: and thus knows a lot of the tricks of the trade.

419
00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:59,000
Speaker 1: One day, he was with some friends at a place

420
00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:01,560
Speaker 1: with a magician who from table to table when he

421
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:05,080
Speaker 1: reached my father. My dad challenged him to somewhat of

422
00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 1: a duel, saying he could figure out any of his tricks.

423
00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:12,400
Speaker 1: The man agrees and begins doing a mind reading trick

424
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:16,080
Speaker 1: where he accurately described every tiny aspect of my father's

425
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:19,560
Speaker 1: childhood bedroom. My dad, of course, is blown away, as

426
00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:21,399
Speaker 1: he had no clue how this man knew any of

427
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,240
Speaker 1: those things. Okay, well that took a twist. I thought

428
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:25,280
Speaker 1: it was going to go the other way.

429
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:25,680
Speaker 2: Yeah.

430
00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:28,800
Speaker 1: Have you had anybody confidently be like, I'm just I'm

431
00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:31,119
Speaker 1: gonna pick that apart. You've got the ace in the

432
00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:34,679
Speaker 1: hat on your I don't know how magic works.

433
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, No, that kind of signs a bit out of line.

434
00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:40,280
Speaker 2: To be honest, this whole like challenging to I'm going

435
00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:42,080
Speaker 2: to tell you how you did this. A real magician

436
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,320
Speaker 2: wouldn't do that, you know, especially in front of a

437
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 2: lay audience. You know, like, you know, you don't you

438
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:48,840
Speaker 2: want to get into this kind of you know, get

439
00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:51,560
Speaker 2: into the chest contest, uh, you know with all the

440
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:53,159
Speaker 2: with all the magicians in front of you know, a

441
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:54,119
Speaker 2: regular audience like that.

442
00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:55,960
Speaker 1: But and this guy wasn't. He was just the son

443
00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:58,159
Speaker 1: of a son of them just broke away.

444
00:19:57,960 --> 00:19:59,879
Speaker 2: From the tradition, so he should know, like, you know,

445
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 2: his father would be ashamed if I may, Yeah.

446
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:07,040
Speaker 1: He would be. So the magician saw his face, laughed

447
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:10,960
Speaker 1: and walked away, saying, your dad and I are old friends.

448
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:14,840
Speaker 1: I stayed with him last week in your room. I

449
00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:18,119
Speaker 1: recognized you from the picture still up in your room.

450
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:20,800
Speaker 2: Oh that's amazing, Yeah, you know what, that was worth

451
00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:24,320
Speaker 2: it for that story. That guy then asked, how did.

452
00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:29,160
Speaker 1: You do magic? Well? Home invasion? But I was invited though,

453
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:32,880
Speaker 1: that's funny. Yeah, and then right there, the magicians they

454
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:35,160
Speaker 1: stick together, you know. Yeah.

455
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 2: But then I mean, that's a dilemma because obviously you

456
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:42,880
Speaker 2: want to like because essentially he revealed a magic secret there,

457
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:44,960
Speaker 2: he revealed the secret as to how he did the.

458
00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:47,200
Speaker 1: Trick magic secret. I'm friends with your dad, so.

459
00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:51,200
Speaker 2: Technically, you know, you could be get into trouble for that. However,

460
00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:53,879
Speaker 2: this guy kind of deserved getting served like that.

461
00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:57,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, I can't imagine that. That would be so crazy,

462
00:20:57,960 --> 00:20:59,879
Speaker 1: being like, yeah, I know, all your tricks. How does

463
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:03,760
Speaker 1: this guy know what color my bedroom walls are?

464
00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:06,159
Speaker 2: He was staying in the room. God knows, like what

465
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:07,000
Speaker 2: he was up to in there.

466
00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:09,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's memorizing everything.

467
00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 2: Eventually, Yeah, I must have to memorize everything in this room.

468
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:15,200
Speaker 2: And kiss I bumped into this guy.

469
00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:18,320
Speaker 1: Maybe week the final the final trick there is. It's

470
00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:24,200
Speaker 1: the op's dad or I guess grandpa knew that they

471
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:25,760
Speaker 1: were going to go to that magic show in a week,

472
00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:27,520
Speaker 1: and he's like, come over, this is gonna be great.

473
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:29,919
Speaker 1: I know he's gonna say something about knowing how to

474
00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:33,520
Speaker 1: deal with we can get him. And another story here

475
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:36,880
Speaker 1: from Chubby piece of guy says, well, I'm not a magician,

476
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,679
Speaker 1: but my nine year old self thought I was. And

477
00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:42,280
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if this fits the question, but here

478
00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:45,320
Speaker 1: it goes. I was participating in the talent show and

479
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:47,520
Speaker 1: I decided to do a magic act with a girl

480
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:51,120
Speaker 1: helping me. She was the volunteer, but she knew how

481
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:53,600
Speaker 1: it was going to go anyway. My trick was to

482
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:56,280
Speaker 1: toss a corder into the crowd and it would magically

483
00:21:56,359 --> 00:22:00,320
Speaker 1: appear in her hands because she already had one breaking

484
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:02,960
Speaker 1: magic rules? Did you break in the magic rules.

485
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:04,440
Speaker 2: Wait till I get a hold of this.

486
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:07,840
Speaker 1: Guy, gonna make him disappear, and I'll never tell you

487
00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:12,000
Speaker 1: where he went. I thought the quarter wouldn't make a sound,

488
00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:15,320
Speaker 1: but it did, and some people scrambled to pick it up.

489
00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:19,240
Speaker 1: After that awkward pause, she showed her quarter. I thought

490
00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:22,840
Speaker 1: everyone would say whoa, And of course no one did.

491
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:27,000
Speaker 1: Very awkward experience. Afterwards, I did the little my thumb

492
00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:30,399
Speaker 1: is coming off my finger, a trick to redeem myself. Wow,

493
00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:34,400
Speaker 1: as a I don't know how much you redeemed yourself there, dude. Honestly,

494
00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:35,200
Speaker 1: well man, how old?

495
00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:36,800
Speaker 2: He said he was nine years old?

496
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:39,439
Speaker 1: Well, honestly, what can I I don't even think I

497
00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:40,600
Speaker 1: can't even remember how to do that.

498
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:45,639
Speaker 2: Yes, that's there, you go. Oh my god, Yes, I'm

499
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:48,040
Speaker 2: as good as a nine year old first surgery, as

500
00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,600
Speaker 2: good as a nine year old, at least as.

501
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:55,680
Speaker 1: Good as a nine year old. Nice slight bulb says, Okay,

502
00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:58,399
Speaker 1: So it wasn't a stage show. It was actually just

503
00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:00,879
Speaker 1: a walk around thing where I was talking to some

504
00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:03,600
Speaker 1: folks in a restaurant. I have a table of four people,

505
00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:07,320
Speaker 1: three of whom are women who are thoroughly enjoying my stuff.

506
00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:09,640
Speaker 1: The other person was an older woman in her late

507
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:12,399
Speaker 1: seventies or early eighties if I had to guess, and

508
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:14,879
Speaker 1: the oldest person at the table by three decades, I

509
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:18,720
Speaker 1: would say who. Far from being uninterested, seemed to be

510
00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:23,199
Speaker 1: getting angrier and angrier as I was performing. In an

511
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:25,960
Speaker 1: effort to include her and hopefully get her to have

512
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:29,359
Speaker 1: some fun, I asked for her help with something. She

513
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:32,240
Speaker 1: says fine. I asked her to hold out her hand

514
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:34,320
Speaker 1: and asked one of the other diners if I could

515
00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:37,600
Speaker 1: borrow a dollar. I then pulled out a card deck

516
00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 1: and went into a trick where I link the playing

517
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:44,320
Speaker 1: card to the dollar bill and whatever happens to one

518
00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:47,800
Speaker 1: happens to the other, which is a variation of Nate

519
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:51,399
Speaker 1: Kranzo's Voodoo Bill. For those who are interested, is that

520
00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:54,960
Speaker 1: an infamous trick? Heard of some side the voodoo bill?

521
00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:59,040
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna talk about. Uh oh, the fact that

522
00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:02,040
Speaker 2: you actually mentioned the name of that trick. We should

523
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 2: have cleared these before so I could tell you. Don't

524
00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:07,520
Speaker 2: mention who the name of the trick and who created

525
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 2: it makes it easier for people to find it anyway.

526
00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:12,000
Speaker 1: Sorry, I don't say the card out loud.

527
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:13,840
Speaker 3: It's gonna get way more into that. If we should

528
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:14,720
Speaker 3: skip this one.

529
00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:16,000
Speaker 2: That's fine, that's fine.

530
00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 1: I shuffle the card into the deck, put it in

531
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:22,000
Speaker 1: the box, and put the box on the table beneath

532
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,679
Speaker 1: a wine glass. I hand my participant the dollar and

533
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:28,040
Speaker 1: have her fold it. She does slowly and with jerky,

534
00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:31,280
Speaker 1: agitated movements that have nothing to do with her age.

535
00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:33,439
Speaker 1: I then slide the cards out of the box to

536
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:37,720
Speaker 1: reveal the card has folded itself inside the deck. Yay magic.

537
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:42,680
Speaker 1: Her three companions are sufficiently wowed, and she is unimpressed.

538
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:45,960
Speaker 1: She looks me in the eye and says, burn it.

539
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:52,200
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, burn the dollar bill so it burns the card. Well, actually,

540
00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:54,080
Speaker 1: the second phase of the trick is to do exactly that,

541
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,959
Speaker 1: but in reverse, burning the card and having the damage

542
00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:59,679
Speaker 1: also appear on the dollar. So I said, I'll tell

543
00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:02,240
Speaker 1: you what, how about I burn the card and that way,

544
00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:04,600
Speaker 1: if it doesn't work, you still have the dollar. She

545
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:08,960
Speaker 1: looks supremely skeptical, but agrees. So I take out a

546
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:11,480
Speaker 1: lighter burn one quarter of the card while she holds

547
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:14,280
Speaker 1: her bill in her fist. I use the You may

548
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:16,320
Speaker 1: feel the card hitting up a bit line, and that

549
00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 1: works about seventy five percent of the time, most people

550
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:21,040
Speaker 1: will nod or at least be wary of the card

551
00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:26,440
Speaker 1: getting too hot. This time I get an eye roll, which, okay, fine.

552
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:28,800
Speaker 1: I wave the card to put the fire out, leaving

553
00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:32,040
Speaker 1: it with one scorched corner. I have Grandma open her

554
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:35,160
Speaker 1: hand to reveal the bill also has one scorched corner. Now,

555
00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:40,359
Speaker 1: this serious, stiff, sarcastic octagenarian woman who has bought precisely

556
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:44,359
Speaker 1: zero percent of my bs thus far, throws the bill down,

557
00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:47,359
Speaker 1: stands up so quickly she knocks over her chair and

558
00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:50,320
Speaker 1: nearly falls has to be caught by the woman seated

559
00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:52,359
Speaker 1: next to her that I later learned was her granddaughter,

560
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:55,439
Speaker 1: and is ushered off to the bathroom while calling me

561
00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:58,800
Speaker 1: a demon and a worker of evil, loud enough for

562
00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:00,520
Speaker 1: most of the restaurant to hear.

563
00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:02,439
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I love that.

564
00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:05,679
Speaker 1: Has that Ever, I was thinking that that's why she

565
00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:07,640
Speaker 1: was so upset is because she was like, this man

566
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:09,040
Speaker 1: is doing evil things.

567
00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:12,040
Speaker 2: Yep, I've had it. Yeah. Like, uh, I did a

568
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:14,359
Speaker 2: wedding back home. It was I don't know, it's just

569
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:16,240
Speaker 2: it was one of those kind of weddings where like

570
00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:19,159
Speaker 2: the first thing I noticed was that no one was drinking,

571
00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 2: and I was like, okay, this is these people are

572
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:22,920
Speaker 2: not here to have a good time.

573
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:25,639
Speaker 1: We're just drinking up the light of the Lord that's today.

574
00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:28,000
Speaker 2: It was that kind of that kind of vibe, you know,

575
00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:29,760
Speaker 2: and like most of them are fine, but you know,

576
00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:32,600
Speaker 2: there was this one guy in particularly an older gentleman,

577
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:34,840
Speaker 2: shall we say, just as soon as I approached, was like,

578
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:36,680
Speaker 2: do you know cards or the work of the devil,

579
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:38,960
Speaker 2: don't you? And that's trying to go no, no, like

580
00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:40,800
Speaker 2: you just used to play games or whatever, you know,

581
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:42,960
Speaker 2: And then yeah, no one at his table would touch

582
00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:45,879
Speaker 2: the cards. I'm sitting there, Pick a card, We're not

583
00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:47,879
Speaker 2: going to touch it. You just do magic and we'll watch.

584
00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:50,639
Speaker 1: It feels like kind of culty. That feels culty.

585
00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:51,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a bit much, yea.

586
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:54,640
Speaker 1: You know the cards are made by the devil. It's

587
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:57,439
Speaker 1: like I'm pretty sure they're made by like bicycle or

588
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:00,600
Speaker 1: like whatever, like, yeah, that's I don't know who owns that.

589
00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:05,360
Speaker 1: I don't think the devil is doing paper niche paper businesses, mom, But.

590
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:07,399
Speaker 2: I like that. That well that's how that ended, Like

591
00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:11,399
Speaker 2: she uh almost falling over that's what she deserves. Yeah, sorry,

592
00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:12,359
Speaker 2: I'm sorry with people.

593
00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:15,960
Speaker 1: Hey, it's all right. I apologize for the other two

594
00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:18,320
Speaker 1: ladies who were with her for upsetting her, but I

595
00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:21,080
Speaker 1: don't think they heard me over their own laughter. As

596
00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:23,360
Speaker 1: I was leaving, the manager told me not to do

597
00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:26,120
Speaker 1: that trick if I came back. Yeah, that's great.

598
00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:28,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's the trick was the problem. The trick

599
00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:29,400
Speaker 2: was the problem there.

600
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:33,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean you know, I will say. Before you

601
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:35,200
Speaker 1: got here, I was like, he doesn't any magic. Better

602
00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:37,520
Speaker 1: not be too magic because then I might get scared.

603
00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:40,080
Speaker 1: Sometimes the magic is so freaky it just freaks my

604
00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:40,760
Speaker 1: brain out.

605
00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:44,439
Speaker 2: Do you you sound like the perfect uh, the perfect audience, Dakota.

606
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:46,040
Speaker 2: We'll do a trick or two later we'll see how you.

607
00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:47,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it is. We'll do some.

Speaker 2: We'll take some.

609

Speaker 3: And while we're pulling those up, would you like to

612
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:58,280

620
00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 2: me a call.

621
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, still magic, just not Mike. It's Alex Kazam.

622
00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:31,480
Speaker 2: Yeah.

623
00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:35,800
Speaker 1: Well, we've got some some questions here from our audience.

624
00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:38,920
Speaker 1: I'll just scroll through, pick out a couple selections here.

625
00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:42,040
Speaker 1: Cool first one, John here og host.

626
00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:43,800
Speaker 2: We're gonna get back to these stories, but a quick

627
00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:47,440
Speaker 2: three minute break from as from our sponsors.

628
00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:49,720
Speaker 1: Being, what's the most uncomfortable reaction you've ever gotten from

629
00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:50,760
Speaker 1: someone during a trick?

630
00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:57,000
Speaker 2: The most uncomfortable reaction, Well, certainly that guy the cards

631
00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:59,800
Speaker 2: of the Work of the Devil guy is up there.

632
00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:00,760
Speaker 1: So yeah, being called a demon.

633
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:04,160
Speaker 2: Essentially, most of the uncomfortable reactions come before you even

634
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:06,720
Speaker 2: get to do the trick. If I'm being honest, like

635
00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:12,000
Speaker 2: I'm gonna do an La La names drop again. I was, well,

636
00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:14,400
Speaker 2: sort of. I was hired to do magic on a

637
00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:19,640
Speaker 2: reality TV show called ninety Day Fiance. That show, Yeah,

638
00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:23,880
Speaker 2: and they cut my footage. Shame on you, ninety day fiance,

639
00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:26,760
Speaker 2: So don't go out looking for it. I'm not on it.

640
00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:29,760
Speaker 2: They cut the footage, but probably because the person I

641
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:31,160
Speaker 2: was doing it for was I think it was the

642
00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:33,400
Speaker 2: one on the American side. This show is all about

643
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:36,680
Speaker 2: foreigners coming to America to get married, right, So it

644
00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:39,280
Speaker 2: was the girl on the American side like, hey, we've

645
00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:41,040
Speaker 2: got Alex because I'm to do magic for you here,

646
00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:43,800
Speaker 2: and I sat down. She's like, I don't like magic,

647
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:47,120
Speaker 2: And then I was like, why am I on this

648
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:50,920
Speaker 2: show again? So usually the most awkward reaction because some

649
00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:53,800
Speaker 2: people will just tell you straight up, I don't like magic. Yeah,

650
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:57,959
Speaker 2: magic's not real. An uphillo bottle from the beginning.

651
00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:02,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, once a trick that went completely sideways during a

652
00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:03,040
Speaker 1: live show.

653
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:07,440
Speaker 2: Oh god, there's so many like that happens a lot, right, So,

654
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:10,440
Speaker 2: like even like pro magicians, you know, we've been doing

655
00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:13,440
Speaker 2: this in Vegas for so many years, things are gonna

656
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:18,080
Speaker 2: go sideway, Things go on, things break, I guess during

657
00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:21,960
Speaker 2: our stage show. Usually thankfully, you know, me being the magician,

658
00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:25,040
Speaker 2: I'm usually out of harm's way. A lot of the time.

659
00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:27,560
Speaker 2: It's the per assistant that has the deal with the

660
00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:31,240
Speaker 2: brunt of the things going sideways, you know, like I remember,

661
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:34,959
Speaker 2: why do I tell a story without giving away the

662
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:37,680
Speaker 2: secret of the trick cutting a girl in half? Right?

663
00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:41,360
Speaker 2: Got this assistant the laser name, And I remember one time,

664
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:44,280
Speaker 2: you know, you put these big blads done, yeah, through

665
00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:47,200
Speaker 2: the box. I don't think I'm giving anything away here

666
00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:49,880
Speaker 2: when I say that, we're not actually cutting them in half? Right,

667
00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:50,680
Speaker 2: it is a trick.

668
00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:54,200
Speaker 1: Oh, come on, what's the trick? Why don't she star

669
00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:56,560
Speaker 1: really being cut in half?

670
00:30:56,960 --> 00:30:59,240
Speaker 2: So when I slammed the blad done once and I

671
00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 2: felt like bones crunching, Uh, I was like something's gone

672
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:07,440
Speaker 2: for at sideways here, And I was just praying like that,

673
00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:10,240
Speaker 2: whenever I, you know, put her back together again, she'll

674
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:12,120
Speaker 2: be able to walk out of the box. And she was,

675
00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:14,840
Speaker 2: I go, just a bite, yeah, but I got an

676
00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:17,160
Speaker 2: ear full after that, rightfully, So for messing up that

677
00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:17,600
Speaker 2: part of the.

678
00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:20,120
Speaker 1: Trick, right, yeah, that's yeah, the part where you don't

679
00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:24,240
Speaker 1: actually cut someone in here? Yes, yeah, exactly, that's that's

680
00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:26,320
Speaker 1: the really what you gotta nail that one.

681
00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:30,840
Speaker 2: I'm glad she was okay, yes, yes, it took her,

682
00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:32,480
Speaker 2: you know, a couple of days, but she was fine,

683
00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:33,160
Speaker 2: just had.

684
00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:34,800
Speaker 1: Some super glue in the back and put her back together.

685
00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:39,920
Speaker 1: That's okay. What is the strangest place or situation you've

686
00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:41,760
Speaker 1: ever been hired to perform in?

687
00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:46,680
Speaker 2: Need to say, Oh, the strangest place or situation, I'll

688
00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:49,000
Speaker 2: tell you exactly. I haven't done it yet. Oh it's

689
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:51,200
Speaker 2: gonna be this Saturday.

690
00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:51,680
Speaker 1: Uh huh.

691
00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:56,160
Speaker 2: The place is normal, it's someone's just someone's home. But uh,

692
00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:58,480
Speaker 2: I think I can get away with saying this. It's

693
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,560
Speaker 2: sort of it's pg enough. It's when I heard what

694
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:03,800
Speaker 2: the theme of the party was, it was like the

695
00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:05,600
Speaker 2: most la thing ever. Was like, I got to do

696
00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:11,440
Speaker 2: this party. It's a breast reduction celebration party. And I'm

697
00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:14,960
Speaker 2: not lying. I'm not lying. I will go to my Instagram.

698
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:16,960
Speaker 2: I got to post photos of this right so you

699
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:18,120
Speaker 2: can see I'm telling the truth.

700
00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:18,920
Speaker 1: It's amazing.

701
00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:22,560
Speaker 2: Yes, thank someone. I forget her name, but she's hired me.

702
00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:24,600
Speaker 2: She saw me at a different party she's having a

703
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:27,400
Speaker 2: She was like, well, you know, I'm making I'm kind

704
00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:29,920
Speaker 2: of making my breath disappears. So I felt it would

705
00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:31,480
Speaker 2: be good to have a magician for the party.

706
00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:32,520
Speaker 1: That's perfect.

707
00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:35,480
Speaker 2: So yeah, I think she's got back problems or something.

708
00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:38,080
Speaker 2: I think because of these Because so I was like, okay,

709
00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:40,720
Speaker 2: well you know that's odd this. I am done. I

710
00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:42,240
Speaker 2: am done for this. So there you go.

711
00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:45,000
Speaker 1: She did a magic procedure that made her lower back

712
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:46,400
Speaker 1: pain disdisappear.

713
00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:50,240
Speaker 3: Yes, someone was wondering if you're allowed to reveal who

714
00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:52,080
Speaker 3: was on ninety day fiance?

715
00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:55,400
Speaker 2: Uh okay, I'm looking. I can see the comments here.

716
00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:59,600
Speaker 2: I can't believe is it Chakaina? Who said that? Is it?

717
00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:02,280
Speaker 2: How did they know? Yes?

718
00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:02,760
Speaker 3: It was?

719
00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:05,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was Chakaina on Sarper.

720
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:09,880
Speaker 1: You must have done a really good uh impression, I

721
00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:11,000
Speaker 1: don't like magic.

722
00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:14,720
Speaker 2: My really authentic American accent.

723
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:19,120
Speaker 1: There, this is perfect. Let's see our last question here

724
00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:24,000
Speaker 1: would be what's something you've learned about human behavior from

725
00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:27,160
Speaker 1: doing magic that you think most people don't realize.

726
00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:31,280
Speaker 2: The first thing that comes to mind is just how

727
00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:35,840
Speaker 2: people's memories are really bad. Like everyone thinks that they

728
00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:37,720
Speaker 2: have a good memory. I need people who you know,

729
00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:40,480
Speaker 2: don't think they have a great memory. It's probably worse

730
00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:44,240
Speaker 2: than they imagine. Like so often you do magic, and

731
00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:47,960
Speaker 2: like I remember one time doing a trick where you know,

732
00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:51,200
Speaker 2: I asked a guy to just think of a card right,

733
00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:52,960
Speaker 2: and he's like, okay, I'm thinking of It's not what

734
00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:55,000
Speaker 2: card are you thinking of? And he says, you know,

735
00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:57,960
Speaker 2: he's the Spids, for example. And I pull out a

736
00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:00,240
Speaker 2: deck of cards in my pocket, open it up, and

737
00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:02,960
Speaker 2: the ass Spades is the only card that's flipped over.

738
00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:05,600
Speaker 2: It's facing up. All the other cards are facing time man,

739
00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:09,879
Speaker 2: and he's like wow. His friend walked over. He immediately said,

740
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:13,120
Speaker 2: you'll never guess what this guy did. He says, he

741
00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:15,520
Speaker 2: asked me to think of a card. I thought of it,

742
00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:18,520
Speaker 2: and then we opened the deck and it was flipped over.

743
00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:22,640
Speaker 2: Now what part did he miss from what actually happened?

744
00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:25,640
Speaker 2: Can you remember I just told you like twenty seconds ago.

745
00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:28,840
Speaker 2: There's an important key part that he missed retelling that

746
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:30,239
Speaker 2: story to his friend.

747
00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:32,680
Speaker 1: Because he did he think it or did he say it?

748
00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:34,959
Speaker 2: That's the thing. He thought it, and then I asked

749
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:37,080
Speaker 2: him and he said it, but in his mind he

750
00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:39,719
Speaker 2: forgot the fact that he said it. Ah, you know.

751
00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:41,400
Speaker 2: And then the guy was like, would you must have

752
00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:43,200
Speaker 2: told him what the card was and he was like, no, no,

753
00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:44,800
Speaker 2: I just thought of it, you know, I maan, But

754
00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:47,000
Speaker 2: that happened all the time, and it's only because we've

755
00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:49,160
Speaker 2: done some of these tricks like a thousand times that

756
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:52,000
Speaker 2: I know every step of the way what's happening. And

757
00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:56,360
Speaker 2: I've seen people misremember things so quickly after you do it,

758
00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:58,560
Speaker 2: which makes me terrified. Like if I'm ever going to

759
00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:00,239
Speaker 2: trial for some reason, you know, like you have to

760
00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:01,200
Speaker 2: rely on witness testing.

761
00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:04,000
Speaker 1: True, Yeah, that's actually I went down quite a rabbit

762
00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:09,000
Speaker 1: hole of like eyewitness like testimony and like police interrogations

763
00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:11,799
Speaker 1: for a second, and like, yeah, yeah, that's one thing

764
00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:16,480
Speaker 1: is it's almost useless, like an eyewitness testimony of like

765
00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:18,719
Speaker 1: yeah it was that guy there. Yeah, it's like that

766
00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:22,320
Speaker 1: same person. You could take a completely different guy and

767
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:24,400
Speaker 1: put them in that context and they go, yeah, no,

768
00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:26,040
Speaker 1: it was that it was that guy.

769
00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:28,680
Speaker 2: Seriously, you know, I see it with my own eyes

770
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:31,719
Speaker 2: all the time, just how malleable the human mind is.

771
00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:35,359
Speaker 2: And then we magicians, like we we rely on those

772
00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:38,319
Speaker 2: little flaws of the of the Brian to make our

773

00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:47,200
Speaker 1: That's right.

931
00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:49,640
Speaker 2: So you put the pen there. That's great. I'm gonna

932
00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:52,480
Speaker 2: shuffle these up. Just say stop, stop, put it back

933
00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:55,040
Speaker 2: on top where you said stop for this one, Dakota,

934
00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:58,239
Speaker 2: you're gonna be the magician. Oh yeah, you're gonna find

935
00:41:58,239 --> 00:41:59,040
Speaker 2: your card in this deck.

936
00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:01,600
Speaker 1: The dark powers will flow through it will flow through you.

937
00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:04,600
Speaker 2: So if anything goes wrong, as you're a fault, all right,

938
00:42:04,640 --> 00:42:06,879
Speaker 2: I'll take that. I'll show you exactly how you're gonna

939
00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:09,120
Speaker 2: find your card. All right, You're gonna take a different card,

940
00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:11,600
Speaker 2: say the nine of Hearts here, right, You take the

941
00:42:11,719 --> 00:42:14,239
Speaker 2: nine and you slide it somewhere in the middle like this.

942
00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:17,320
Speaker 2: But don't let go, okay. The reason is that I

943
00:42:17,320 --> 00:42:19,000
Speaker 2: ain't gonna pick up the top half of the deck

944
00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:21,279
Speaker 2: where you put slide it in, flip it over to

945
00:42:21,320 --> 00:42:23,960
Speaker 2: show the audience that this will be your card whenever

946
00:42:24,040 --> 00:42:26,280
Speaker 2: you do it. So it's a one in fifty two chance.

947
00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:28,480
Speaker 2: But wherever you slide it in, that's where your card

948
00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:30,279
Speaker 2: is going to be your sign card. Slide it right

949
00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:32,160
Speaker 2: and anywhere you like there, slide it in there you

950
00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:34,680
Speaker 2: go and hold on tight for a second. You can

951
00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:36,520
Speaker 2: change your mind if you wish. Would you like to

952
00:42:36,640 --> 00:42:39,000
Speaker 2: keep it here or change your mind?

953
00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:39,759
Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep it.

954
00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:42,080
Speaker 2: You're gonna keep you sure you're gonna stick?

955
00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:42,399
Speaker 1: Yeah?

956
00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:44,960
Speaker 2: Okay, So you can put your card in between these

957
00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:48,600
Speaker 2: two packets. You could have put it anywhere you want it, right,

958
00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:51,560
Speaker 2: and this is your sign? Would that'd be crazy? That

959
00:42:51,719 --> 00:42:54,439
Speaker 2: was your signed card, which was the seven spids. Yes,

960
00:42:54,920 --> 00:42:58,000
Speaker 2: the signed seven of Speeds. Everybody signed seven.

961
00:42:57,920 --> 00:42:59,400
Speaker 1: Spied now held on?

962
00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:01,600
Speaker 2: Hold on, sorry, sorry, it's probably that sometimes it's off

963
00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:04,200
Speaker 2: by one here, Oh my god, it's seven?

964
00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:05,200
Speaker 1: Is this what I is?

Speaker 1: I thought it was. It couldn't have been. It couldn't been.

970
00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:18,040
Speaker 1: It couldn't be the one I signed.
