The Magic Guys podcast. We as professional magicians answer your questions,

0:30
To my left, we've got Nick Kay.
0:32
What's up, friends? I'm Nick Kay. And joining us also is Daddy Doug.
0:36
Happy New Year, mon ami.
0:38
Whoa, coming in strong. Coming in strong on the mic. Is that too much for the
0:43
mic? Should I back it off a little?
0:45
Yeah, it's all in good fun. But firstly, hey, Happy New Year,
0:48
you guys. Yeah, Happy New Year, friends.
0:52
Happy New Year to all our friends in the chat. Happy New Year. We got.
0:55
Our poor boy, Drago Pierre, Tim Askin, Scotty P, Scott Link.
1:01
Guys, thank you for being here. Red Aces, which is our friend Gerhan.
1:05
Good to see you, bud. Guys, Alex Lam, happy new year, buddy.
1:08
As you guys know, we had a rockin' little awards show on the last one.
1:13
Drago is asking the five, six days, how we feeling? I did a lot of overeating,
1:18
like a lot of overeating, dude.
1:20
Like a full four kilo overeating. It comes off really quickly,
1:23
thankfully, but my God, how about you guys?
1:27
Yeah, I had Christmas with family staying with us. So it just meant the house
1:31
was always full of great food and treats.
1:33
From Christmas to New Year's was just, I'm a sucker for fruitcake, like Christmas cake.
1:39
So it's like every day I'm just eating a couple of slices throughout the day.
1:45
But now that we're into the new year, I'm focused and working it off slowly. What about you, Doug?
1:53
Shit, I'm still trying to finish off those cakes everyone sent me from the last live stream.
1:59
Thanks again, everybody. Sorry I missed last week. It's been a crazy house here and a trick supply.
2:04
Certainly want to be here, but we were busy as last week.
2:09
And yeah, aside from that, been a chill holiday for me and orchestrated to be such. Loving it.
2:16
2026, likely to be my best year ever. Let's go.
2:21
Like that you're manifesting that. And that's exactly what this episode is all about.
2:25
So we asked you guys on last week's episode and on our Discord,
2:29
if you haven't signed up to Discord yet, jump on it. It's a good community.
2:32
And we wanted to know what your guys and gals, what your goals were for the
2:38
year of 2026. And you guys sent in a lot.
2:42
Like there is like a lot. And so I say we jump straight into it because we're
2:46
probably going to end up going into overtime trying to get through all of these
2:49
speak pipes. So mind up, Josh?
2:52
Yeah, let's just do it. We're going to go through them. We'll reflect and help where we can.
2:56
But the first one is coming from Pasha, avid listener and friends of the show.
3:01
Hey, Magic guys, it's Pasha here. And here are my goals for 2026.
3:05
You've got to make them specific. So I'm being really specific on this.
3:10
One, Magic is 20% of my income. So I increase it up to 20% of my income.
3:15
Last year, it was about 5%.
3:17
Two, I want to score a gig over $2,000. I want the confidence and the ability to call that in.
3:25
And three, I want to write my own show.
3:29
Don't necessarily need to perform it yet, but I want to write my own 30-minute
3:33
set. That's just my stuff.
3:35
None of this, you know, buying other people's stuff and rebranding it,
3:39
but just trying to come up with my own thing for 30 minutes.
3:42
Ah, yeah, so they're my three goals for 2026. How I'm going to do them?
3:46
I don't know. You guys are going to tell me in some sort of future podcast.
3:49
I'm going to look at your past podcasts and get all the ideas and information
3:52
and skills because you guys are absolutely fantastic love you guys, peace out,
3:58
Love you too, Pasha. Thanks for sending me. Pasha, what a G.
4:02
All right, quick reflection on Pasha, Nick.
4:05
So, okay. So quickly, the 20% of the income and wanting to get a gig worthy of a $2,000 rate.
4:12
Not impossible, not one bit. I think that where you become valuable to that
4:17
extent is that you have the promo to back it up.
4:20
So it's really hard for some guys that work for me to get them a higher rate
4:26
because they don't have any promo, any photos, anything.
4:30
They've not invested any of their own money into themselves to show that they're worth that amount.
4:35
So in the same breath, people, I also have inquiries come into the business
4:40
and they'll go, I've only got 300 bucks.
4:42
And I go, you can have this guy. They go, cool, send me his showreel and his promo.
4:45
And I went, you're not getting a magician with showreels and promo for 300 bucks.
4:49
You're not getting that. It's just- You might not even get a magician.
4:52
Like my word, my word is the recommendation and that's all I can give you.
4:58
But if you want promo and stuff, you pay for the privilege of a magician who's
5:02
invested in that. And that's a $2,000 privilege.
5:05
So that's my advice to get that off the ground. So I'm not saying do it all yourself.
5:09
There's people like Joshua amazing at editing and whatever else,
5:12
you know, look for entities like that.
5:15
Anyone else want to add to that? Well, I know, I know Pasha's brother who works
5:19
with the theater of magic every week is a video editor.
5:22
So, Pascha is performing at the Theatre of Magic every week,
5:26
Cartel's an editor, that's just a match made in heaven, and we've talked about
5:30
this before, Pascha just needs to actually organise that to edit a sick video.
5:35
And then the main thing, here's the real secret, guys, if you've been thinking
5:38
about charging more for a show, like, here's the secret.
5:43
Actually ask for more money. Like actually put up your price.
5:48
You can always go backwards.
5:50
You can't go upwards on price. If a client agrees to a price,
5:53
you can't charge them more.
5:54
But if you start at what you are worth and you want to go for,
5:58
you can always go backwards if you have to. That's all.
6:00
So if you say your price is $2,000, Pasha, and the good thing is this is not
6:06
your main source of income, eventually someone's going to say yes.
6:09
So I would just start asking for that amount it's not
6:12
going to magically happen otherwise and you'll do
6:14
it and then to write your own show that's awesome for me
6:18
i need a deadline like i need to know i'm performing somewhere
6:20
in order to make me sit down and write or create something so that can be really
6:26
tricky and easy to procrastinate but if you can set aside that 20 minutes every
6:32
night before bed or something to write your own thing then that's great too
6:36
but great goals and i'm gonna bloody I'm performing with Pesha, I think,
6:41
it's either this week or next week, so we're going to have words.
6:45
And my dogs agree. What's your thoughts on producing OG material?
6:50
What in general like for for these goals
6:53
in particular well i think that the money thing
6:56
is pretty well covered but with regards to writing original material
7:00
what are your thoughts on that because i feel that
7:03
erroneous of being sort of original you can
7:06
put a style on something okay so
7:09
for example the coins you
7:12
know coins across three three coins one hand to the other okay that
7:15
is a staple all right so think about that as a
7:18
song it could be let's just say it's my way
7:21
by paul anchor okay it was
7:24
sinatra that made that song sing so what i'm
7:27
getting at is that like you can sing things in your own way
7:30
it's totally okay to do that you know what i
7:32
mean like when you have your style you can do an effect that's your style i
7:38
have a q a effect which i'm working tirelessly on which is gonna i'm putting
7:43
a lot of work into it before i put it on stage page and rather than doing a
7:47
q a it's going to be my style because i don't think questions are.
7:52
Personal enough so what i do is i say you make a wish so
7:56
you make a wish it goes into the thing and the premise for mine
7:59
is like where do wishes go when they're tossed in the well are they
8:02
screaming for help and let me help you make find your
8:04
wish and give you some advice that is the nick k style
8:08
to that so i think that take a moment identify your style as
8:11
a person that you're either caring and warm and
8:14
whatever you want to do and make people feel welcome
8:18
or you know it could be the opposite you could be
8:21
this egotistical crazy jason ladani
8:24
like entirely competent that's clashes
8:28
with almost over cockiness you know what i mean like whatever it is like put
8:31
your style to an effect is my advice yeah if you have a unique point of view
8:35
and a strong character i think you'll find the presentations you're writing
8:39
for your show will evolve a little more naturally now That's easier said than
8:43
done because finding that character and ideally a unique character.
8:48
Offering you know something people haven't seen before yeah that's
8:51
the real stuff harissa hendrix material like her
8:54
chats that she's had on developing character okay
8:58
that stuff is a very good guide and and
9:01
we're lucky to we know pasha so i know he's actually a science teacher in real
9:07
life so like that seems like the obvious amazing character to embrace is your
9:12
actual like he knows the chemicals that mix together to make kabooms and all
9:16
that stuff so So, you know, a whimsical science teacher,
9:19
Pasha, I don't know why you haven't tried it yet.
9:22
There's a million Jeff Hobsons, but there's no Pasha the mad scientist, you know.
9:26
My advice, just to finish on that, is that knowledge is key and scientific knowledge
9:35
or technological things are indistinguishable from magic.
9:37
My advice is that anything that you do, just give them a little truth and a
9:41
great big lie. The little truth is, if you're doing a witch hand and you go
9:45
raise both your hands up, you go, notice his right hand's a little bit higher than the other.
9:48
And that's because he's trying to oversell, oh, this is definitely not it,
9:52
when it actually is, open your hands up.
9:53
So you've got these like little truth, great big lies.
9:56
Try embed what you do in science in truth. That's my advice.
10:01
Nick's on fire today. I love the enthusiasm. I've had a lot of coffee.
10:05
Jeff Hobson gave us advice at his lecture, which was, If you don't know what
10:09
your character is, ask someone that you don't know to look at you and tell you what they think you are.
10:15
Like, who do they think you are? Who do, what do they think you do for a living?
10:19
And then that'll give you some info that, that you're biased about yourself.
10:23
Yeah, you dial that up to 11, you know, and then there you go.
10:28
So find someone, you know, a random stranger and just say it's for a theater
10:32
test or whatever experiment.
10:35
Tell me, who do you think I am? What do I do? Our next speak pipe,
10:38
we probably got time for one more, is from Caden, coming in hot.
10:45
Caden sent this in a week ago. Let's see. Hey, Magic guys. Caden from over in the US.
10:50
My goal this year is to start getting more gigs, trying to not necessarily say
10:57
make this my full-time career, but definitely trying to make it a solid part-time.
11:01
And another goal of mine is to which goes
11:05
along with the first goal is to really start
11:08
consistently uploading to social media and working on getting a nice at home
11:13
kind of setup too and I just invested in some Ray-Bans per Josh's recommendation
11:18
in the discord so yeah I couldn't have done it without all the tips from you
11:23
guys looking forward to another great year of magic and with the magic guys,
11:28
thank you brother that sounds amazing I think that
11:30
long and short of that is stay the course bro as long
11:34
as you stay yep stay the course like you you're listening and again
11:37
like we're always around we're on the we're on the discord just stay the course
11:42
bro i think you'll get there quicker than you think yeah my my feedback is i've
11:47
just learned there's no correlation between your socials and how many gigs you
11:52
do like until you hit a certain point so don't look at them as like.
11:57
Like make sure you focus on the getting more gigs part if that's your goal.
12:01
Make the socials part a byproduct.
12:03
Like the Ray-Bans are perfect. Like as you're doing the gigs,
12:06
film the Ray-Bans stuff, you know, it's great.
12:09
And it's those socials that will get you more money once the viewer count gets up, the numbers grow.
12:14
Then when you ask for those $2,000 gigs, you can back it up with 10K on Instagram.
12:19
Yeah, like definitely post clips that you're proud of and you've collected.
12:24
And if you have a great idea for a video, film it. But if you're sitting at home going,
12:29
should I spend the next three hours filming seven days of content to schedule
12:35
and post because I have to, or should I spend three hours working on my website
12:39
and emailing agents and like do that stuff?
12:42
I would suggest the most important thing to booking gigs as a noob,
12:47
as someone trying to get more gigs, is just to be seen more,
12:51
whether it be at a restaurant or street performing or at festivals,
12:55
you know, anywhere you can get your face in front of people doing your stuff,
12:58
hand out the business cards, and then you can start getting word of mouth and stuff like that.
13:03
Yeah, Sam Angelico gave me the Australian FISM winner He gave me the best advice
13:08
when I first saw him do a lecture When I was first wanting to do it full time
13:11
And he said, to get work, people have to see you working Yep Mm-hmm,
13:15
And that's just the truth. That's right. Thomas Conger is up next. Baby!
13:21
One of the OG listeners of our time. We share the same haircut, I'm pretty sure.
13:27
And he's always a true artist at heart. And let's see what Thomas is up to.
13:32
Merry Christmas, happy holidays, happy New Year, happy birthday,
13:36
all the above for everybody.
13:37
And this is Thomas Conger, fellow community member that you see in the chats
13:40
all the time, possibly in Discord under the alter ego alias of Ronnie Laito.
13:45
I just want to say I really enjoy your guys' podcasts. I'm not technically a
13:49
magician, so to speak, although I do partake, especially on live streams and
13:53
some of my digital collecting communities.
13:56
But I do consider myself a sleight-of-hand enthusiast. But truly, I am an artist at heart.
14:02
I've been one professionally for 13 years now. I've been working and evolving
14:07
every year and getting better and better.
14:09
News resolutions, as far as they go, I'd like to get a couple more commissions
14:13
than I typically do throughout the year.
14:15
I'd like to get a couple of murals this year.
14:19
I typically get like one a year now for the past like eight or nine years, but I'd like to get more.
14:25
And I would like to travel this year. I'm going to get a car finally after like
14:29
13 years of not having one.
14:31
And I'm going to finally be able to just upgrade myself and take more opportunities this year.
14:35
And New Year's resolution possibly to try and meet one of you guys or all three
14:40
of you guys or all four of you guys by the end of this year.
14:43
All right. We'll enjoy everybody. Happy New Year.
14:46
Happy New Year, brother. Happy New Year. Oh, happy New Year, sir.
14:50
I will say having a car is one of the most, it's remarkable how much more you'll
14:54
be able to achieve with it.
14:56
I had a buddy of mine who I used to try and give him work and give him things.
15:01
It was like, oh, it's so hard to get to places, blah, blah, blah.
15:03
And then I literally gave him my old car.
15:06
And it took him years to pay it back to me.
15:11
But at the end of it, he was just like, you were right. And I regret not getting
15:15
it earlier and whatever else.
15:16
And the way that he paid it off was I booked him for gigs and then he would
15:21
make $0 at the gigs and he paid off the car.
15:25
But ever since that happened, he then opened up his opportunities to do more
15:30
work and he was in the audiovisual realm.
15:33
So he was able to do more work, get to more places, travel out of town,
15:36
do more festivals. and that is what's going to open up for you, my guy.
15:39
So your travel realm, it's all going to be self-working just because you're
15:43
now capable of doing it with the infrastructure you have.
15:46
You've got the talent and you've got the ability to transport.
15:49
So it's basically going to be self-working, buddy. Yeah.
15:53
And meeting us, that's so cool to think that like that would be a goal. Like that is an honor.
16:00
And I mean, that's just a matter of come and see us, man.
16:03
You have a seat at the Theatre of Magic waiting for you, should you come along.
16:09
Hopefully, if we're all at Magic Live this year, if we do happen to schedule
16:14
works out, then obviously you can tick them all off in one go.
16:18
That would be sick as well. Probably a slightly less airfare.
16:22
And in terms of getting more commissions, because I've seen Thomas's work and
16:27
he's an amazing artist, painter and spray painting artist when he's doing his murals and stuff.
16:33
Yeah, social media, when you have a product to sell, that's when social media can really be dope.
16:40
And so right now for the magic community would be the easiest way.
16:44
Like maybe in the discord we can talk about this more but if there's a specific
16:48
type of service you can offer to magicians for commissioned work let us know
16:54
like whether it's you do really whimsical.
16:57
Hand-designed arts of of famous magicians
17:00
like diverna and houdini all that kind of stuff that people can hang on their
17:03
walls like that would be sick maybe that's something you send me one of and
17:07
then it sits here and then every time someone asks what the hell is that i go
17:11
hey it's from thomas conga like maybe there's some kind of you know set like
17:15
these set things that you can offer,
17:17
i'm just thinking of ways we can help you really but i'm thinking
17:21
branding i'm thinking any sort of sort of branding notion where it's like they
17:24
could you could redo a logo or reinvent a logo that still is let's say it's
17:28
mercedes for argument's sake but it looks hella cool with the stylistic input
17:32
from thomas conga like yeah you know when we're looking at folks like sonia and come on,
17:39
our friend from the UK. Oh, Damien? Damien O'Brien. Damien O'Brien.
17:43
Yeah, like those guys doing amazing brand deals and stuff and it's like,
17:46
you know, those guys are very street stylistic.
17:49
So pitching something to them or it's like next time you do a thing.
17:53
You know, like, would you like me to do a piece of artwork for you?
17:55
But yeah, here's the easiest way.
17:57
I mean, I say it's easy. It's hard because you've got to actually make the artwork
18:00
and I'm not as skilled as Thomas here.
18:02
But like every time a movie comes out, paint like just freaking dope ass your
18:08
interpretation of the movie.
18:09
And make it a giveaway like post it and go all right comment like and share
18:13
and in a week one person from the comments will win this thing bloody hell you
18:18
will have no problems flying in a private jet to come in and meet us you film
18:23
the creation for social media you could film the,
18:26
process right put it on a you know long or
18:29
short form piece of content people will pay you while
18:32
you're freaking making it like man with
18:36
those skills like holy crap that's awesome and
18:39
the amount of people i know who just watch videos of like people washing
18:43
cars like just washing tires and stuff
18:45
like car detailing i'm like okay this is a 46
18:48
minute episode like i'm sure that there are folks in your realm
18:51
if you captured what you do because what you do is so aesthetically
18:55
gorgeous and seeing that process unfold
18:59
yeah man it would be great tim is asking
19:01
is there a place where we can see your work there might be a follow-up for that
19:05
otherwise it'll be in the discord and yeah look i love it and let's let's keep
19:10
it rolling we might circle back to that yep but great goals great goals next
19:15
speak pipe is from gahan who is a fellow australian magician from melbourne.
19:22
What are you up to, Gahan? Let's have a look. Listen. Hey, this is Gahan.
19:27
I'll be doing my first ever solo magic show at the Melbourne Magic Festival this year.
19:33
Looking back at your first ever solo shows, what are some pieces of advice that
19:39
you wish someone would have given you when you performed?
19:45
So after doing my first magic festival show, I was sitting backstage with Hal
19:51
de Grimieres, who'd seen my show.
19:53
And he told me this, that might be of value to you.
19:57
He said, you have a very strong eye for good magic, but there is no reason why
20:03
you can't make it your own.
20:05
He said, you opened your show with Sam the Bellhop. Why wouldn't you just do your own story deck?
20:11
And I went, you're right. That was the biggest thing I took away from that.
20:17
Now, that being said, there's nothing wrong with it being your first go and
20:20
you doing marketed effect after marketed effect.
20:23
Just keep in mind, there's probably other magicians of the same elk doing the same thing.
20:30
You know, like, I remember when the Amazebox came out, there was an Amazebox in every show.
20:36
Just keep that in mind. You can either be a cover band magician or you can be
20:41
Gerhan, the magician. Your call.
20:45
I think for the first show, it's not a bad idea to, you know,
20:50
stick with some classics. Do you agree? Like your first one, right?
20:55
And just, I guess, I wish someone had told me that, yeah the show is probably
21:00
not going to go smoothly and things are probably not going to work and that's
21:03
okay because that's what happens to everyone that's probably something i would say,
21:07
and i wish someone told me you're going to learn a lot because the
21:10
effects that you think in your head are going to work and be so
21:13
cool and they'll understand they just may not
21:16
be the highlights that you think it will so yeah you're
21:19
just you're about to learn a lot that's what i wish i was told but fucking
21:22
good work for going out and actually doing it because that's the
21:25
hardest bit is actually not sitting
21:27
in your room practicing magic and going
21:31
on great but getting out there and you're going to find out also one
21:34
last thing plan out your show get a straight line on
21:38
a piece of paper put your routines down like this
21:41
and then i want you to graft what their
21:44
experience is going to be for like the make a note of what the emotional experience
21:49
is going to be if it's something heartfelt if it's something just funny if it's
21:53
something whatever it might be and then graft it so that you at least structure
21:57
your show to end on a crescendo where it ends with a nicer finish because.
22:03
You can either,
22:05
Plan to fail or fail to plan. So don't do either of those.
22:09
Like just make sure that you have a little plan, look at the picture from start
22:14
to finish and inject whatever you need to in between that.
22:18
Oh, and here's the biggest one I wish someone told me. Actually rehearse the
22:21
show from start to finish so you understand where props should be and end up
22:25
and what pocket management should happen.
22:27
Because if you just think in your head what you'll do next and like plan out the show,
22:31
it's so wild when you actually do it and you like can't find things and you
22:35
realize that this prop being in your pocket for half an hour warms it up and
22:41
now it doesn't act the way it should.
22:42
So I wish someone told me, actually rehearse the show from start to finish as
22:46
much as you can. So that would be another one.
22:51
Oh, yeah, I love this. We get a backstage of trick supply. This is great.
22:56
Yeah, to finish your sentence there, Mr. Norbido. I think anytime you're not
23:01
able to make the show because you're working, we should have this view of the
23:04
story because it's so cool. We should program it.
23:08
Hey, Mackenzie, come wave to the magic, guys. This is Mackenzie Sol. Mackenzie Sol.

24:23
and see what the next one is yeah here we go we've got tim raymond coming up next tim raymond,
24:28
What's up, Magic Guys? My New Year's goals for 2026 are,
24:33
one, I want to try and volunteer my services at some fundraiser-type events
24:39
just to get some footage and video at some higher-end events to use for a video promo.
24:46
My second goal is to hit up some schools and oshes early in the year to try
24:51
and get my name out there for doing a few school workshops and that sort of
24:56
thing to try and build that up a bit more and finish getting the muscle pass down.
25:03
Yeah. So those are my goals for 2026 and get some killer business cards. But yeah.
25:10
Goals. Great goals. I love like the contrast there.
25:14
Like, yeah, plan out this and
25:16
send that out. I want to hit up some more charity events to get promos.
25:19
Muscle pass. I really want to get this muscle pass and business cards.
25:24
I need some business cards. Yeah.
25:26
Okay. So I'm going to say this, if you're going to volunteer yourself for something, don't do it.
25:31
I mean, like by all means do it, but like try and aim to do it in a venue that
25:36
is aesthetically gorgeous and looks very full.
25:40
If you're going to volunteer yourself for the local RSL where there's a bunch
25:43
of stacked chairs in the corner and it's like, you know, there's a panel missing
25:49
from the ceiling and it's all harsh overhead lights.
25:51
Like, no. If you look at my website, nickkmagic.com, you'll see my opening video
25:57
of that particular room that I'm performing quite regularly,
26:00
as I am seeing that event and so forth in that ballroom.
26:04
That's the sort of thing you want to be capturing your stuff in. So that's a great idea.
26:09
Don't just take anything, hyper-focus and get it like in a nice venue, a nice hotel.
26:15
We volunteer magicians for free every variety thing, which is to help raise money for children.
26:21
So we'll nominate a few of us. In fact, I try to encourage everyone who works
26:26
for myself to do one charity event a year, like generally for free.
26:31
Or, you know, or like I'll pay them a few bucks out of my pocket to be like,
26:34
look, they're not paying anything, but here's a couple hundred bucks.
26:36
Go work your magic just to help people dip their
26:39
toes in the water and so forth and get footage but location make
26:44
sure it's gorgeous make sure there's people and make sure you look
26:46
good too look like money yeah the
26:50
type of events people see in your promo video is going to be what you're like
26:54
you end up getting attracted to doing more of so if there's the footage is always
26:59
you of you in a backyard doing a birthday party like that's the that's they're
27:04
going to think that's what they pay you like that's the level you're being paid
27:07
for is backyard party magic and.
27:10
They may not quite think of you for that big banquet
27:13
gala dinner so it's got to match yeah what you the target client you're aiming
27:18
for and yeah great advice muscle pass that's so funny that's just a thing that
27:23
you know i remember when i was learning the muscle pass i would go in and out
27:27
of motivation for it i would try for a bit then i would just give up and think
27:30
it's never going to happen.
27:32
Then I would see someone doing it again on full last and be like,
27:35
God damn it, I'm going to try again.
27:36
And then I would give up. And then one day you get a little bit of movement
27:39
from it and you're like, oh my God, this is possible.
27:42
And then you almost give yourself carpal tunnel trying to learn.
27:45
You get the calluses on your hand and then you stop. But while you stop,
27:50
your muscles actually build and then you come back to it and all of a sudden you can do it.
27:54
Yeah, it's crazy. But yeah, it is worth it. It is definitely worth the work
27:58
and just keep us updated. And business cards are a must.
28:03
I'm doing both. I'm actually doing a muscle pass and business cards in one at the moment.
28:08
I showed Nick backstage, but I just got these custom business cards ordered
28:13
as a poker chip right now.
28:15
So it's a poker chip, but it has my details on the back with a little sign so
28:19
that I can do a muscle pass and give it away as a little memento.
28:21
But But anyway, I won't go into that. This is not about my dreams. This is about yours.
28:28
And you should make some shells, 3D print some shells as well.
28:30
That'd be amazing. I will ask Kerry about that shortly.
28:36
But no, solid goals. Have you just got to action it? I like that.
28:40
It's achievable. And you know what? It just takes time. It just takes time.
28:43
And the big goals, the school thing will be fine.
28:46
That's all going to come down to your marketing. And look, you will get knocked
28:50
back on a couple of things.
28:51
Please do not be discouraged when that happens you know like
28:53
if you ask you get knocked down and you don't even try
28:56
to get knocked down same outcome same outcome just
28:59
focus on the outcome not how you got there so yeah boy
29:03
all right sith we're coming up to
29:05
sith's speak pipe here we go okay
29:09
my magic new year's resolution is
29:12
to create more original magic and i
29:15
was trying to think of a practical way to like gauge that and I've made my goal
29:21
by you know this year I would like to be able to do a strolling gig where I
29:25
do nothing but original material so you know not like my handling on the ambitious
29:30
card routine but just tricks that I've developed from the ground up,
29:35
yeah happy new year guys.
29:38
Happy new year bud now before we talk about that tim
29:41
just asked doug what did he buy oh he got
29:44
daniel garcia's mint box yeah.
29:48
Okay we're talking about card reveals card.
29:51
In an impossible location looked at
29:54
the wow case from you know the wow change card
29:57
and wallet we've looked at that some card wallets but
30:00
you know daniel garcia mint box easy easy
30:04
option okay so when you see that on
30:07
the the next social media viral video these guys
30:10
mckenzie and pete sayrano and
30:14
rodrigo and matt franco they're all hanging out
30:17
at his house making content on the
30:19
regular yeah because you know
30:22
why they know it matters right matt knows how
30:25
important it is to have that social media tick and that's
30:28
what we're talking about right getting those gigs and getting eyeballs on
30:31
you and getting work that's how you do it yeah so
30:37
seth was asking about doing original magic yeah
30:40
you know there is a was it it's
30:45
interesting that that's come up twice now to perform original material
30:48
i think first of all it's a lot harder than it
30:52
seems to do like completely original stuff but
30:55
you know what go for it and then the next question will be
30:58
can you make it entertaining because obviously the the classic
31:01
things are there unfortunately because they're so good at getting reactions
31:06
yeah well here's the thing like i was just referencing fisky's book the trick
31:10
brain and there was certain ways on how to be original and create stuff you
31:14
know like you don't have to stretch that far like i'll i do a version of chicago.
31:19
Opener but it's got a blank face and the.
31:23
I always, I force a court card and I go, it gives it a kiss and sucks the face
31:27
off. And then that, that indifferent card is now blank, you know?
31:31
So there's nothing, you can make it original by changing such a small thing.
31:35
Like instead of card at any number, I do a card at any color, right?
31:39
Like name a color, name a card. I turn it over and it's, your card is green, right?
31:45
Like it's that, that sort of process. so it's
31:48
not it's not a huge stretch to do
31:51
something entirely original or seemingly original and the thing
31:54
is even if you think it's original like don't even worry
31:57
about it because i can't tell you how many times i come up with something and then
32:00
it already existed elsewhere and then i would come up with
32:02
something and then waste my time trying to figure out okay before i go any further
32:05
let me see where else it come from does not matter man the
32:08
point is that you came up with it independently and it's to
32:12
your style into your liking and comes from your head it's
32:16
12th monkey stuff like it's probably every chance what we thought existed
32:20
elsewhere i was jamming with a very
32:22
particular type of card guys it was uh we're doing like very illogical moves
32:26
that that play in card magic and
32:30
they explained the concept to me and then i i just made up three on
32:33
the spot and gave it to them and they were just like i've never seen these before then turns out
32:36
oh the guy that created this concept those three are his already
32:39
and i was like great i'm glad that i think the same as this
32:41
cat not that i cared so that's my advice
32:44
just like you don't have to change anything major but look
32:48
at something that you wish you did
32:51
it like your way and something that you would like because by making it personal
32:55
you make it original yeah and start with one routine don't i wouldn't jump straight
33:00
to this year being able to do an entire set original like just start with one
33:04
you know if you look back this year and go that one thing i've really made it
33:09
my own i think you'll be happy.
33:12
Nick Gay coming up next, coming in strong. Thank you for sending in your speedpipes
33:17
last year too for the end of year speedpipes, but let's see what we're doing for 2026.
33:24
Hello, Magic Guys. Congratulations on surviving a whole nother year.
33:29
So for this upcoming year, I have two goals. First goal, I want to be paid for a gig.
33:34
I don't care if it's someone's birthday and they send me 50 bucks afterwards.
33:39
Last year, I worked a little bit harder, and I did some gigs,
33:44
all pro bono, a couple of open mics, just to see if I could actually do this.
33:50
I feel like it's time for me to start monetizing it.
33:54
Hopefully this year, I'm going to get into my new house, going to get my office
33:58
back, and I can start working on the socials more. That'll be fun.
34:03
And then the second goal is going to be my daughter.
34:08
She's six now and she really loves magic and I would like to have her do a trick
34:14
for me you know teach her some of the secrets,
34:19
and I don't want to push anything onto her but she really seems interested I've
34:24
seen her palm of coin before she loves Spongebob so that's probably going to be where we start,
34:29
and I just want to say thanks for all the help and encouragement that you guys
34:33
do send me more green rooms so I can rate them and cheers to an awesome 2026.
34:40
Yeah all right nick wow that's cool
34:43
have your have your was his daughter he said yeah him
34:46
a trick what a cool goal that is what would
34:50
you suggest that small child uh sort of
34:53
start performing my my go-to in this in the shop is the magic coloring book
34:58
just because they can do it right away and it's relatable you know in their
35:02
universe after that push button magic ball and vase you know nickels to dimes
35:09
things like that where you know it's pretty easy to to do,
35:13
sponge balls is an interesting choice because they're going to be doing slide
35:16
of hand magic i kind of love that and what you don't know don't hurt you i guess
35:21
i don't know if that's the saying but if you don't know it has to be it can
35:23
be easy it doesn't have to be easy you know.
35:28
I think Nick's got a pretty good head on his shoulders for what,
35:32
you know, a beginner needs.
35:33
Super excited for him to be moving into this new space. I know he's been sandwiched
35:39
up with the familia and very happy for you, Nick.
35:44
Anyway, yeah. You know, magic coloring book. Nick, you probably have one of those. Yeah.
35:50
And in terms of doing your own first paid gigs, buddy, hell yeah,
35:55
let's do it. I mean, the easiest thing would be, and I put out a video last
35:58
year for anyone starting gigs.
36:00
It's the same thing. There's these automated agency websites you can just set
36:05
up a profile for and start with a small fee and you'll get small gigs to begin
36:10
with. I think in America, Thumbtack.
36:13
Thumbtack might be one of them. Thumbtack's a good one. What's the other one, Doug?
36:18
Thumbtack. Okay. Thumbtack. Thumbtack. Thumbtack. Thumbtack.
36:24
Thumbtack. and bark and they're yeah you set
36:27
up your own profile and people can click you know
36:30
on their city that they're a magician they can kind of see your stuff it's
36:33
just an easy way to start you know people with small budgets will typically
36:36
go through these channels to find clients yeah my advice on that is just don't
36:41
don't price yourself out in such a way that you that you affect like the price
36:45
everyone else you know what i mean like don't be the cheapest guy in town like
36:48
find the good entry price and go from there try and beat pasha and get your
36:54
first two thousand dollar gig before him,
36:56
Hey, Josh, you share that screen for a moment. Maybe do a little business while
36:59
I'm working from the shop.
37:00
I had Chris Likes Magic ask if we sell the Virtuosa wallet.
37:05
You see where I have a present, share the screen? I can't click that button.
37:09
Can you? Mr. Christopher Wayne. All right, here we go.
37:13
And then share the screen. Is that available to you or not? Present,
37:17
share? Yes. Oh, yes, yes.
37:18
Yeah. So if that's the wallet you're looking for, we do carry it.
37:22
I don't have one on site in the showroom, but we will ship it to you.
37:26
It'll be there, you know, promptly if you order it from Trix Supply.
37:30
So, yeah, we got it. That's the answer to your question. And now the boss is
37:33
happier that I'm doing this while working. Thank you.
37:37
And Chris is in Boston right now. So it'll be going from Vegas to Boston.
37:42
Oh, the other boss is here too. Look. Hey, boys. Good morning. There you go. Nice.
37:47
Yeah, Chris is currently just selling out Bonanza, the Boston Theater of Magic,
37:52
that chapter that's open right now. That's fantastic.
37:55
Selling out weeks in advance. I think all of January is almost sold out.
38:00
It's absolutely insane how welcoming America is to Chris's magic. It's so dope.
38:06
And now we've got Doug as his new dealer. The world is right.
38:11
Chris asked if I have an opinion on it. I haven't seen the wallet yet.
38:14
I haven't had my hands on one and there is not one in this room.
38:17
I'll try and find something out
38:19
about it and I'll get you as much information as I can as soon as I can.
38:23
Boom. Scotty P is next.
38:27
And let's go with Scotty P. You know, so many good things to say about Scotty.
38:31
Let's just jump into his resolutions.
38:35
Hi, Magic guys. Scotty P here. While I do have magic career goals for 2026,
38:42
like putting together a small parlor routine in case I end up getting stuck
38:45
performing for a table of 15 for an hour like Josh did, I thought since this
38:51
is a safe space, I want to share a more personal goal.
38:55
Last year in July, I made the challenging decision to stop drinking after a
39:00
very dependent and very abusive alcohol relationship to the point where I'd
39:05
use it to start my day, as most people would start the day with coffee.
39:08
With the support of family and friends, especially fellow magician Christopher
39:13
Wayne, who provided insight and experiences from his own sobriety journey,
39:18
I will be six months sober later this January.
39:22
My number one goal for 2026 is to celebrate my one-year sobriety in July this
39:30
year and also become incredibly rich.
39:39
A real showman. You know what?
39:42
First of all, how funny that we were just talking to Christopher Wayne and then
39:45
this speak pipe is in reference to looking up to Christopher Wayne's journey.
39:51
Scotty, thanks for sharing that man And it's so cool to hear you be vulnerable
39:57
like that Because that's going to help other people listening to this That may
40:00
be feeling a similar way as well,
40:03
And we really hope that we can be there to help you celebrate that one year
40:08
sobriety in July Don't fuck it up, alright?
40:11
No, we look forward to that man That might be one of the best goals that I've heard so far,
40:19
that's right man like we are a community and so again like stay strong if times
40:23
get tough lean on us we're here for you buddy it's good to know that you're
40:26
you're doing well power to you we're proud it's the killer is the best thing
40:30
you can do for yourself congratulations and the,
40:35
in getting incredibly incredibly wealthy if you figure out how to do that please
40:40
you know hook a brother up yeah but step one is don't drink it away so you got
40:45
that figured out yeah nice Yeah,
40:48
you are on the way. So good.
40:52
I could talk about that for another 10 minutes, but let's try and get out these
40:55
other goals here. We've got Matthew here.
40:59
Matthew, is it Mosley? He only put his first name. We know Matthew, but...
41:03
He's a fancy Matthew because it's spelled M-A-T-H-I-E-U. So we always know who
41:07
that is. Let's see what Matthew's up to.
41:10
Howdy, guys. So one of my 2026 goals is to create this clown character called Left or Nutter Face.
41:19
Matthew, the volume is all the way up, by the way. So good work. We'll do our best.
41:26
And so one of the main things with this character is his Hulu pants.
41:33
Now, these Hulu pants are like a Mary Poppins bag, if you will,
41:38
right? Anything can come out of them.
41:41
Not weird, but fantastical or whimsical or even magical.
41:49
Something of that nature can come out of these pants.
41:52
Just the audience has no clue what would be coming next, right?
41:56
So obviously I have balloons or sight gags, classic clown tropes.
42:02
But I was curious if you guys had any magical ideas for magic props or specific
42:11
tricks that I could do that you guys had any ideas for that I could pull out
42:18
of my pants and entertain the masses with.
42:22
And so if y'all have any ideas any are appreciated i can't promise i'll use them all but i will try to,
42:31
incorporate some version of it because it is truly appreciated
42:34
until next time peace have a blessed day
42:37
so just to be clear matthew's
42:41
question is what can he pull out of his pants
42:44
to make it more entertaining for the audience all right and on to the next one
42:51
that's all we have time for yeah next one is coming from scott link and scott
42:57
we're going to see what you're up to hopefully you speak a little louder here we go.
43:04
Happy New Year to you guys and all the listeners out there.
43:08
This is Scott Link from Charlotte, North Carolina.
43:13
Recently, I landed a position with The Magician's Table, a London production
43:18
that has come to the States and will be touring later on this year.
43:22
It's really a pleasure because I get to do one of my signature card tricks,
43:28
kind of a reverse Svengali effect, And I also am doing sponge bunnies in my
43:34
set Which, quite frankly, couldn't be funner and easier So it's a no-sweat set
43:41
I'm really enjoying performing,
43:44
It may lead to opportunities to travel with that production But if I don't get
43:49
that chance I do plan to travel quite a bit more in the coming year I need to
43:56
put more places with the faces I know,
43:59
And I'm trying to break out into the retail market with a couple of effects.
44:06
So you know you don't get your product out there unless you do the footwork.
44:11
So hopefully I'll be doing some lectures and have some products for back-of-the-room sales.
44:17
Anyway, that's how my year's shaping up. I hope you guys have a good one and keep up the good work.
44:25
Bye right on scotty link let's
44:28
go scott way love it great work
44:32
congrats by the way for getting the uh the magician's table gig
44:34
that's awesome that's like such a great
44:37
atmosphere to be performing at and knowing that
44:41
sponge bunnies is killing in that environment is just also very cool yeah if
44:47
you want to do a like market your own effects like there's plenty of means of
44:54
you know uh of submitting a trick to Murphy's Penguin.
44:59
You name it, Bacon, go and just throw it out there and be like,
45:03
I've got a trick. Here's a video if you want it. Let me know. Illusionist.
45:06
You know, the worst they'll say is no. They'll, you know, so typically show
45:10
them something. The way it will go is you show them something.
45:12
They'll go, that's cool. Show us the tutorial. You show them how it's made and
45:15
then they'll think about it.
45:17
I know Scott a little bit. I know he's been independently selling these items.
45:21
I know he's got the policy up on elephantpuzzle.com and his decamorphosis trick.
45:27
They're both good effects, and I think it's smart for a creator to do as many
45:30
independent sales as possible.
45:32
Let's rewind back to the social media chat, and I would suggest that a good
45:37
demo on social media can sell you a buttload of products and make you a lot
45:42
more money than going right to Murphy's or Illusionist or Penguin,
45:46
where you're likely to make a couple hundred bucks versus thousands.
45:49
So if you're a creator, well, create some freaking videos, Put your shit out
45:54
there on social media and then watch the money come in before you give it to
45:58
the distributors. That's my advice.
46:01
And I guess a little thing I noticed in that 2026 goal voicemail is you said
46:08
a lot of hopefully's like.
46:11
Instead of just something to be cautious of with your mindset with everyone
46:15
is you said, hopefully I'm going to create some new products and hopefully I'll do lectures.
46:21
And because of those products, I'll hopefully be able to sell back of room sales.
46:24
That hopefully is not really a goal. So I would make sure to,
46:28
in your own internal dialogue, say like, I will write a lecture.
46:33
I will email seven magic clubs and I will have these products ready to sell.
46:39
Like it's a very small detail but like if i say hopefully i'll make a million
46:43
dollars this year it's very different so,
46:46
Yeah, clear, defined goals that are attainable will change your life.
46:52
100%. Little victories, man. But yeah, we look forward to seeing what happens,
46:57
man, and these products. We can't wait. Cannot wait.
47:01
Dylan, our editor, is up next. We have two more. We have Dylan,
47:05
and we have one more after this. Cool.
47:07
Yeah, we chat. We're always chatting about the edits and stuff for the shorts
47:11
coming out each week and things.
47:13
So I'm curious to see what his actual goals are for this year.
47:16
No doubt. Dylan Young, everyone. What's up, Dylan?
47:19
Hey, lads. Hope you've been well. I thought I would share my big goal for 2026.
47:24
Now, this was something I wanted to do last year, but I had my big mishaps with
47:28
my surgeries on my knees, so I couldn't actually do a lot of filming because
47:33
my goal for this year is to get into a film festival.
47:37
There's a group of people I'm willing to put together to work on a couple and
47:41
perfect them to the best we can and hopefully get into a festival by the end of this year.
47:46
Because obviously my big dream is to be a working film director.
47:50
So this would be amazing.
47:52
And also, we're at $2.50. That's crazy. I'm just going to save you a button push, Josh.
47:59
Da-da-da-da!
48:02
Yeah, this was great, man. I'm so happy for you guys. I hope you have a good 2026. Woo!
48:10
That's great, man. And that was the end. Good goal. Really kept us on a cliffhanger there. at the end.
48:17
So good. That's a great goal. Absolutely. Dylan, yeah, Dylan had these surgeries
48:22
on his knees and he couldn't walk for ages.
48:26
He had some, just as he's growing and getting older, there was like something
48:29
that would keep popping out.
48:31
And so he's really been nailing down on editing for a few people actually,
48:36
because he just had no choice, even though he loves, he's a sporty guy,
48:39
he loves to get out there and running and stuff.
48:41
So that's very cool to hear that that's all healed and and recovered this year,
48:46
but Dylan, the film director, one day we'll look back, you know,
48:51
and we'll be like, that guy that directed Avatar 27,
48:54
he used to make edits for the Magic Guys, you know? So...
48:59
That'll be dope. All right. One more to go. One more. And we'll say our. Yeah.
49:05
And if, yeah, for sure. Now, this last one is from one of our guests of the show.
49:11
And what a perfect way to have the last speak pipe.
49:14
It's from our friend, Eric Youhouse has sent in a speak pipe,
49:19
included us in his book that came out this year.
49:22
And let's see what his resolutions are.
49:25
Hello, Magic Guys. this is Eric U. House, and I'm excited to be able to share
49:29
with you two things, two things in this speed pipe. First thing is Happy New Year.
49:34
Happy New Year. One of my goals for this year is to cut my 55-minute presentation
49:39
down to 16 minutes and put it on the stage of TEDx.
49:43
So that's happening this year. That's a goal. I'm putting it out in the world.
49:46
The second thing I need to do is to go ahead and thank you all and give my acceptance
49:51
speech for the prestigious award that was bestowed upon me from the Magic Eyes
49:57
for winning the best book of the year. So here it is.
49:59
I want to first begin thanking all those people who I threatened and coerced into voting for me.
50:07
I really had no intention of harming your friends, your families, your girlfriends.
50:12
Tim, I'm really sorry what I said about your dog. I didn't mean it by any means, okay?
50:16
Also, I have to thank God. I thank God, because he gave me the strength and
50:22
the power to crush my twin in the womb.
50:26
Thanks so much, guys. Had a great week.
50:30
Whoa. That got dark so quick.
50:38
Thank you for that, Eric. Oh, praise the Lord. Man, that's so funny. Yeah.
50:46
Wow. Really took us for a turn there. I like it.
50:49
Real storyteller. Doug's lost it. You know I like it when things get dark,
50:54
you know. That's my ballpark.
50:56
Okay, that'll be a front run-up for this year's best speak pipe,
51:00
so we'll keep rolling with that. Yep. Be a two-time winner.
51:05
Dude, that was funny. I'm crying a little.
51:09
And you know what? I'm glad that it actually gave you a sense of,
51:13
some sense of accomplishment or wonder or
51:16
fun or you know for for actually our
51:19
episode naming your book as the best book of
51:22
the year from the ones we looked at like i'm i'm so
51:25
happy that that episode gave you some kind of you know
51:28
good feeling and so that was all thanks to
51:31
nick coming up with that idea to the uh i've told about
51:34
a dozen of those books from this room i love that book and
51:37
every when people come in a beginner old
51:40
guy it's a great book i try and sell it
51:43
all the time some people are lazy don't want to read and don't
51:46
want to listen to me but so you know i i failed to
51:49
mention one more award which was because we do the trick
51:52
supply a creative challenge and i forgot
51:55
to i forgot to mention who won that it was one
51:57
nomination one clear winner that for the for like in those episodes if you're
52:02
unaware doug will run about the enormous warehouse find a few props that he
52:08
think are cool that we might not know about he shows what they're capable of
52:11
and then We come up with routines and we basically hand you a full-fledged routine,
52:15
which you can then purchase through trick supply.
52:18
The clear winning product at the trick supply store was the Mylar flower. Like it is. Duh. Duh.
52:29
I totally forgot to make that. I was going to make a short form with it on the Christmas tree.
52:34
I forgot to make the ornament video. I was going to do it. Yeah.
52:38
Anyway yeah well well i think we should tee up
52:41
but yeah i'll put it on your to-do list when you're when you're running about in
52:44
the next coming weeks that we'll do a a creative episode with
52:47
some bits you find around the warehouse i think that'll be really fun noted yes
52:51
yeah hell yeah so real quick look yeah i guess look our goals for for this year
52:57
yeah let's start with your goals what's what are your goals for 2026 i want
53:01
to hear doug's doug's is always such a mover and shaker and getting up and doing
53:06
things, moving different cities.
53:08
You know, you got bloody plans. So like, yeah, certainly want to keep busting my ass for this company.
53:14
There's a lot of exciting things that we're doing and I could focus on that.
53:18
But personally, I would like to do more live performing in Las Vegas.
53:24
I certainly see myself doing that and even more formal theatrical performances.
53:30
And then I want to get my butt on the road on this West Coast and go see the
53:34
things that are close to me, like the Magic Castle, some of the other formal
53:38
magic dining establishments, and then some of the beautiful scenery the West Coast has to offer.
53:43
I'll be doing lectures and performing at these places through 2026 and beyond.
53:49
And yeah, that's my short list.
53:51
Yeah, I love that. Okay, the summary of my goals.
53:55
One is to continually try and make one little thing better or more thoughtful
54:02
in every show that I do like tweak one little thing it can be really hard to like.
54:09
Creatively work on your show when you just have to go and do
54:12
shows like it's really hard to think about how to make it better or
54:15
whatever and and so far this year i've been able to tweak
54:17
a little thing each week and so my goal is to
54:20
just a tiny little thing whether it's like placing a
54:23
prop somewhere so i don't have to do as much walking during the show
54:26
and wasting that time and hopefully by the
54:29
end of the end of the year it'll just make it way more
54:32
tighter and hopefully funnier and more
54:35
magical so that's one thing try and make each show a little bit better obviously
54:38
there is like a monetary goal i have that's just you
54:42
know only so that the skeleton of hitting that will let
54:45
me know i've probably done things better than last year
54:48
and thirdly yeah thirdly
54:52
get us to episode 300 this year of the magic guys that's going to be the 300
54:57
club love it nick what what you got baby yeah mine's kind of straight out of
55:03
your vein buddy my goal is just be better in every facet So be healthier,
55:08
be smarter, be lighter, lose weight,
55:11
be funnier, be more creative, just everything, just be better.
55:15
Anything I can do to be that little bit better, I'm doing it.
55:19
So I'm just doing everything more, rehearsing more, I'm running more,
55:23
I'm riding my mountain bike more, I'm eating less.
55:26
You know, that's my goal. My goal is just be better. And yeah,
55:31
it's, I think that when I do that, all facets of life are going to just elevate.
55:35
And that's, that's my goal. Just be better. Be better.
55:38
Be better. That sounds like a t-shirt.
55:44
But guys, this has been awesome. Look, now you've manifested all of those goals,
55:49
you know, from Pasha's 2000 gig to Caden's do more gigs.
55:55
Thomas Conger's get more commissions.
55:58
Gahan's first show. What was that one?
56:01
Tim's muscle pass, Seth's OG show, Drago just wanting to get a paid gig.
56:07
It's all doable, friends. Scotty P's sobriety one-year chip in 12 months.
56:13
This is Matthew's hula hoop pants, which we're still not going to address.
56:17
But in the Discord, we'll do that in the Discord.
56:20
Or he can pull out of his pants, goddammit.
56:22
He could just fasten everything to his legs, and then that way it's not showing
56:27
in his, you know what I mean?
56:28
Like, just make a holster that goes around your legs and put heaps of,
56:31
like, mylar flowers, and you just pull things out.
56:34
You know what I mean? Like, that's the best way to conceal things when you're... Nice.
56:37
It's also like kind of the perfect topic you know i just think anyway thanks for watching everyone,
56:45
i just think if you're going to be a clown and you're going to
56:48
draw attention to you're going to be around kids and being like look what's
56:52
in my pants maybe rethink it i'm just or maybe it's an adult show this clown
56:59
this pants skit is you know for adult audiences only and then boy do i have
57:04
some recommendations for you.
57:08
Thanks for listening. It's time for us to disappear now. Disappear now.
57:13
But we'll see you again on the next episode of The Magic Guys.
