The Magic Guys

Hosts Josh Norbido and Nick Kay, joined by Daddy Doug Conn, dive into a live, unrehearsed episode exploring oddball and overlooked magic props from Trick Supply. They demo and brainstorm uses for items like the card-to-flower Mylar card, TCC’s "The Moon" mirror (the twilight principle), a Sharpie slap-bracelet, magnetic popsicle sticks, an ice-cream paddle gag, and an electronic thread reel — plus practical performance tips and gag ideas. Along the way they share a gig story where a personalized bottle reveal stole the show, and offer quick, creative ways to turn small, strange props into memorable effects for close-up and roving magic.
