The Magic Hat Podcast

I have not had the pleasure of working with comic/magician Christopher Barnes; but he came highly recommended and everything I was told was true. Chris approaches his magic using a kind'a cartoonish delivery, bright colors, goofy antics, and funny props; which make for an always entertaining show for kids...and adults. But there is more...he is also a playwright who has had shows in New York and Los Angeles. As proof of his talents, visit his YouTube site at yaytaco.fun great stuff!

This is the second of Ken Garr's talks with us on the way he got into performing comedy-magic shows across the country. Ken is a Bay Area entertainer who has done some TV, is a co-host regular on the streaming "Creature Feature" series, and on this episode he shares how he adds comedy to the illusions he does. Very interesting!

Thanks for enjoying this series; and on this special mid -series edition, we have professional comic Bob Worley sharing his attempt to perform some magic...for the first (and hopefully last) time. This is just a short comedy break in the series, and we will have more great discussions with other professional comic-magicians again next time. Thanks for listening, and please share with other who enjoy the variety arts.

On this episode of the series, we are joined by comic-magician Michael Finney our of Phoenix Arizona. Michael was a finalist on TV's "Star Search", a regular at the Hollywood's Magic Castle, and actually won a "Silver Lion" Award from Siegfried & Roy. He has performed across the country in comedy clubs, corporate events, and even early on...amusement parks. A talented magician and very funny guy; you will enjoy all that he shares here.

I have worked with a lot of nationally known magicians, as you have heard on earlier shows from this podcast; but most magicians around the world don't reach those levels of professional shows. However, they are just as dedicated, proficient, and hard working at their craft. They may be doing mostly kids parties, restaurants, and small corporate events; but they are all professionals. Scot Smith is a terrific example of a very successful comic-magician that never left his Home town. Scot is respected, works hard to entertain, and was a joy to have on my podcast, this is the second of his shows...enjoy!
