Why The Magic Tricks Rarely Matter | American Magic Episode 11: Marcus Eddie 

“The magician is more important than the magic.” Great tip that Marcus embodies.

Marcus is a class act!

I've never watched someone's fingers so intently

Before I watch, I'm just guessing it's the same thing every other magician here has stated: it's all about the connection with the audience and sharing an experience or an emotion, it's not about the trick itself at all. We've heard it so many times now, but it really is an important message. It's the purpose of literally any artform, the artist sharing their experiences and their view on life.

I love these interviews very inspiring

Brian should go to 'Penn and Teller Fool us' again.

Never been this early, love the channel, I would love to see you change the name back to scam school please.

1:20 is where the “magic” begins

Dude I LOVE all of these. My man, you are a helluva interviewer and I get so invested in these specific interviews. I'm no magician but ive always watched scam school. These guys just talking about their passions and being NORMAL peopl and not the totally arrogant or cocky people that came from something and rode that to victory. These guys are inspiring, far beyond the magic.

notification squad!

Brain! got a puzzle for you. A thief is caught breaking into a castle kitchen. Before he can be arrested he manages to lock himself in the larder. Luckily for the thief, the king is a fan of maths and will pardon the thief if he is able to correctly and quickly multiply two large numbers together. There is only one problem, the thief is a dumb ass and never learned how to multiply (but he knows how to add and subtract ). The larder is filled with ingredients of cooking e.g. dried beans, rice and sticks of spaghetti etc. There is nothing to write with. In fact, if the king sees the thieves workings out when the door is opened or if he has made a mess, he will instantly throw the thief in jail. what can the thief do to so he is able to answer any of the king questions? Note: Even if the person you are talking to is a maths wizard and able to answer instantly, this doesn't help the thief. example questions: 93 x 21 313 x 25 42 x 404 (the story might need a bit of a tidy up as its one I've come up myself but think it has everything you need)

I just wanna know why the fork someone has a box of baking soda in a jar next to their monitor in that room behind mr. least-magical-rubber-band-boy and his interviewer.
