Nic was born and raised in Wichita Falls, but his family has deep roots in Denton. Music has been one of his lifelong passions, the viola being his first musical instrument. He then picked up the guitar in his early teens like almost every other dude in the country. He moved to Denton in 2004 on his 25th birthday, and part of what inspired him to move to Denton was the music scene and the fact that some of his favorite bands are from Denton. Nic co-founded DMAC with Andy Knapik and a handful of their friends and 35 Denton colleagues in 2017; the first meetings were potlucks at Nic's house. He lives in north Denton with his wife and their three dogs Radha (aka “Baby Girl”), Annie (aka “Annie Banannie”), and Digby (aka “Doofus”). He is very well known for his ability to smoke a brisket.

Kelsey Nichols' life was 100% Instagrammable - a smocked clothing line, two beautiful children, and a happy home - until her four-year-old daughter took a simple fall in their garage; that moment changed everything.Interestingly, though a traumatic brain injury isn't what most people expect to see in their social media feed, Instagram became just the vehicle to share news of Annie's journey from a near-miss to a full-on miracle. Friends, acquaintances and strangers alike prayed, fundraised, sent gifts, did laundry and brought meals. Overwhelmed with gratitude, Kelsey and her husband were driven to give back - and so the Annie Banannie Foundation was created, just weeks after the Nichols family's life turned on a dime.You'll learn new ways to care for friends in crisis as you listen to Kelsey's story. You'll relate to her feeling that she was only brave because she had to be, and that her darkest moments are already yielding beautiful fruit. You'll walk away knowing the magic of a little girl's freshly-grown ponytail and the unbelievable thoughtfulness of friends cleaning your house as they pray for your baby. In Kelsey's voice, you'll hear her pride at Annie's recovery, her thankfulness to the village of people around them, and her hope for what the foundation's impact will be on other families like hers. You'll be reminded that miracles happen every day, and Annie Nichols is living proof.

Welcome to the final episode of Season 5! We have Annie Banannie today as a co-host with Zivi for this season finale. Today we talk about transportation, what are the recommended vehicles that kids entertainer use and their benefits. We also talked about balloon workshops and how to do it better using the tips from one of our courses. Last but not the least we discussed the hot topic of when to diversify or add a new service to your mix. All of this and more in this season finale, episode 115. Listen now! In this episode we discuss: In Your Voice: Show Transportation - question from Brettso the Great “Hello there! This is Brett Bolich aka Brettso the Great from Southern California. Thanks for answering my questions in regards to stage shows but I had a questions regards to transporting your show from venue to venue. Now I that a lot of you guys have vans, specifically the Nissan NV200 as well as the Ford Transit style vans and it was really popular, I currently have a Rav4 that I love but eventually I would love to upgrade to one of those because I’m getting to the point where I might have to carry more stuff in the near future. And I just want to get your thoughts on those style of vans, what to look out for, what to consider and maybe like a checklist of things that you would use say okay this is worth getting or just keeping your vehicle originally so anyway thanks again and talk to you guys soon!” Annie currently uses a Toyota Corolla but before that she used to ride a Prius. Before she had an accident she was carrying a lot of stuff in her car and after that she started thinking why she’s carrying too much stuff around. Now her rule is, “if it doesn’t fit the car it doesn’t go in her show”. Zivi on the other hand uses the Nissan NV200 where he can fit 1200 fully inflated modelling balloons. It’s branded so he can easily identify his car and for people to see it. Branding your vehicle is another form of advertisement for you business that you can take advantage of. We conducted a survey on Facebook to find out what people use for their business and here are the responses from our community. Check the episode bonus to see full discussion. Tips from the Vault: Tips on How To Do Workshops Better Tips on how to do workshops better: Outside vs Inside - we strongly recommend doing it Inside The importance of the extra show Why two hours is too much Two a day with a normal size car Square baskets - instead of round baskets to maximize the space For Adults - basically just teaching them how to teach balloons to kids Watch the video to see the tips on how to do better balloon workshops. Hot Topic: When to diversify and add a new service to your mix? For Annie, she just started diversifying with her shows without using balloons, this is because she wants to grow and pushes herself to do any type of show but she will still continue to be serving her customers as the balloon storyteller. If you’re going to diversify just make sure that you know where you are going to in terms of marketing efforts. One more decision filter on when is it a good time to diversify, which is related to foundation of anything we do which is our skills.

Welcome to episode 112 of the Kids Entertainer Podcast. Today we have Annie Banannie as the co host. In this episode and we talked about the book Seriously Silly and the Repeat After Me principle. We wrapped this episode with an important discussion about the ecological nature of latex balloons. All of these exciting topics in episode 112. Listen now! In this episode we discuss: In Your Voice: What are the differences between Seriously Silly the book, Seriously Silly the DVD, and the new book Super Sized Silly?  By Robert Clarke “Hey, good morning Zivi! It’s Robert Clarke here, I just have a question mate. David Kaye’s book Seriously Silly, I’ve come across Serious Silly that come with a DVD, but there’s also one Seriously More Seriously Silly but doesn’t come with a DVD is this the same book or is it two title different books? Love to know, thanks mate! And the website is http://escapadesentertainmentandpromotions.com.au/” The new book book contains 150 routines from 104 different magicians. It shows the routines done by different magicians. The first book shows what tricks work for specific age level and teaches what makes kids laugh and interact.   More discussion and tips when you listen to the episode. Tips from the Vault: The Repeat After Me tactic -  as shown in David DeVitto’s lecture Bring in the Laughs to Bring in More Bookings Zivi personally uses this principle in all of his shows, he teaches one magic trick in his show, either one with his magic bracelet or anything okay to share and he asks to do the magicians oath to never share the secret. Example: I, Zivi Kivi, promise, to never reveal, the secret, and, I will do, anything that, my mom tells me to do, and also, my dad, AMEN Annie tends to use it for a safety pledge if she’s gonna do something that looks dangerous. It’s building the excitement but also reminds them about safety. Hot Topic: Can we help spread the word that balloons are eco friendly? With the raising concerns about Balloons and the Environment… how do we spread the word about the misinformation (like people who say balloons are made of plastic) and get the real info out while still being amusing? Annie thinks there’s a lot of misinformation about balloons, she shared that it started in the 80’s that it was reported that it’s dangerous like plastic. A latex balloon is made from materials from a rubber tree (each tree can last up to 40 years and keep producing materials). Balloons are made from biodegradable materials. What can we do in order to help this environment cause? Part of our job is to educate people about balloons and we have so many tools we can use to share it with people. You can ask people to do a pledge about helping the balloon and environment cause. Share with us if you do anything in your show about spreading awareness about balloons. Do that in our Facebook group, please!

Welcome to Episode 109 and today we have Annie Banannie back in our show. In this episode we talked about marketing your stage shows. Annie and Zivi also talked about another lesson from the GMD Formula which explains why moms book you. Plus, the hot topic - when is it a good time to reveal a magic trick. All this and more in th In this episode we discuss: In Your Voice: Marketing for Stage Shows Brettso the Great (Brett Bolich from Southern California, USA) asked: “Hello There, this is Brett Bolich aka Brettso the Great from Southern California. I had a question in regards to stage shows. Now, I’ve been personally reaching out to community theaters to try to put on my very own stage show, with some luck and most of them pretty much telling me that as much as they would love to have me they already have a theater season where they do broadway style plays or broadway style musicals and my question is to you guys, is there other avenues besides community theaters to reach out to, to do stage shows. Also if community theaters are a viable option, what would be a better way to approach them? My final question to this is, is what are some things or some pitfalls to avoid when actually getting your theater show running, you got the theater you’re getting the show, what are the things like contractually that you should look out for to make sure you’re not hurting yourself in the end? Thank you very much, talk to you guys soon and have a great rest of the podcast. Yeheyyy!” Zivi and Annie shared some important tips and here are some of the points: Anytime that you have in your market an event or a topic that everybody cares about that’s great. For example, the Read Across America theme, if you work in Libraries. Look at your market and if your market looks like it can support specific show like that then go for it because it’s gonna push you creatively. A lot of independently owned theaters exist and you can go to them without fear of the infamous committee. Local Schools sometimes got fancy theaters. Zivi and Annie also gave some advise with regard to contracts, the committee and colleagues. More discussion and tips when you listen to the episode. Tips from the Vault: Why Moms Book You The tip is taken from the Games, Magic and Disco Formula (GMD Formula) in Kids Entertainer Academy - Module 9 Lesson 2 Zivi and Annie discussed the reasons why you get booking from bookers and how you can make sure you book them right away. Hot Topic: When is it ok to share The Secret of a magic trick? For Annie, there’s two different sides to this question, sharing with performers and sharing with muggles. For Zivi, it troubles him where the boundaries are. There’s a lot of gray area but you have to have a great reason why you are sharing something.
