    Words from Teller to Brian Brushwood

    http://shwood.squarespace.com/news/2009/9/21/14-years-ago-the-day-teller-gave-me-the-secret-to-my-career.html I admit I've never heard of Brian Brushwood, but I want to thank him for sharing this correspondence. I hope magicians here enjoy it. I did, but then, I'm not a magician.

    On UK TV, "Penn and Teller: Fool us".

    Phg5NSg0V_E Penn and Teller looking for opening acts for their Vegas Show. Lots of Magic (comparatively) on UK TV at the moment with BBC's "The Magicians". Spoiled a bit by the inclusion of celebs but still watchable.

    Topics for upcoming Season 7 of Penn & Teller

    The seventh season of Penn & Teller's cable TV show which I cannot name here (but which can be abbreviated "B.S.") is coming later this year. Penn Jillette is on Twitter, and he has mentioned working on the scripts for this coming season several times over the last two months. Assuming they do...

    Penn & Teller's '********' on Showtime

    I just learned about Penn & Teller's Showtime series about different matters of skepticism, called ********. I don't subscribe to Showtime and I was wondering what different skeptics opinions about the show are. I've heard they've gotten into some hot water due to certain comments concerning...

    Spoon Bending

    At TAM6 we were treated to a narrative from Teller explaining how to divert attention from a stressed spoon at causal gatherings. The spoons that Dr. W. gave us were all pre-stressed and you could see that clearly on the spoon. What I want to know is how can you prestress a spoon without...

    Teller, Randi and the Science of Magic

    From the New York Times (reg. req'd): The opening photos accompanying the story show Teller demonstrating principles of the famous effect, "The Miser's Dream." Teller even gives away a secret or two behind this classic illusion. Some of the presentations at the meeting will be familiar to TAM...

    Penn & Teller duped?

    Great news! I am in contact with Steven, a Penn & Teller representative, and not only are we eligible for "group pricing" but because “quite frankly, we love you guys” we are going to get an extra discount – likely 25%. Retail price is $85.50. I will post shortly with our price once confirmed...

    Penn and/or Teller Auctions?

    I've been keeping an eye out for one of the lunch/brunch eBay auctions, but haven't seen anything yet. Anyone know if these are going to happen again this year?

    Fortune teller in the office

    I have just been informed that we are having a fortune teller over at the office for a Halloween get together. We have to reserve a 10-15 minute slot and she’s here for half a day or so. I’ve already answered no, because she’ll be paid by the visit and I don’t care to add more money to her...

    What Penn and Teller Do

    I'm prompted to do this because of a rather good question: 'Are Penn and Teller merely entertainers?' And what sources would you cite to indicate otherwise? If indeed, you thought they were more than entertainers? I have on another computer, several essays by Penn that illustrate more than...

    Penn & Teller on 'Faking It'

    Channel 4. 10pm Sunday night. (UK) 'Faking It' is a programme where they take someone from a completely different lifestyle and teach them a new skill. After a few weeks they have to 'fool' a panel of experts. I think the chap in this one is a teacher - and they are training him to be a...

    Fortune teller arrested for grand larceny

    Officials are still waiting for people to come forward, but they estimate she bilked people out of about a million dollars. Her schtick was to claim that the valuables (including apparently a Chevy Trailblazer) were cursed and she needed to have it to cleanse it. You'd have thought she would...

    I'm irritated by Penn and Teller

    I just saw the episode of http://www.randi.org/jr/040904that.html#5 that covered drugs and the war thereon. While, ideologically, I favor the legalization of the majority of drugs, there were three things about this episode that really stuck in my craw. 1) The whole "nobody has ever died from...

    Penn and Teller on TV

    While perusing P&T's website, I saw they'll be on TV a lot in the next few days. November 10 - 14: Hollywood Squares Tuesday, November 11: "Jimmy Kimmel Live" Monday, November 17: "Las Vegas" I wonder if they'll plug TAMII on Kimmel's show? That would be cool.
