Penn & Teller join the Raider Nation, thoughts on the new Pope, Penn's book appearances for his new novel Felony Juggler, Matt moves up to the big room at the Magic Castle, and lots more!

Coeval & Balbutient.Grandpa Bill's Location Idea: A Grand Castle.THIS IS ALL BASED ON MY BEING A 3 YEAR STUDENT OF THE MAGNETIC MEMORY METHODS STRUCTURED ONLINE COURSE AND PARTS OF PARTICULAR ASSIGNMENTS THERE!!Here's how GB is adapting the objects to guide someone through the castle and ultimately to my location within it:CO (Company of Coalas): Imagine a group of identical, cuddly "koalas"(bears) (representing "coeval") gathered in the Castle's main Courtyard. They are all facing a specific archway or doorway.E (Emerald Green Vests): Each koala wears a vibrant Emerald green vest. On the back of each vest is a directional arrow, all pointing towards the same inner part of the castle.VAL (Identical Valises): Each koala holds an identical small VALise. These valises are not just filled with treats, but each has a small, identical map peeking out. When the maps are pieced together ( they each hopefully will show a different section), they will be revealing the specific room or area where GB's examples are located within the castle.So, someone following this mnemonic journey would:Encounter a company of coeval koalas in the castle courtyard.Noticing the arrows on their emerald vests pointing inwards.Examining the maps within their identical valises to piece together my exact location within the castle, as depicted in MY fictional Mnemonic Memory Palace.Again this is to coincide with a specific assigned Word Tracker project as part of my being a student of MMM this is my adaptation of next up  "Balbutient" STAY TUNED!!Creative Solutions for Holistic HealthcareTo our esteemed agencies and potential guests, Grandpa Bill here, host of the BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour Podcast (airing today, May 13th, 2025).For the past eight years, as part of my retirement Goodwill Ambassadorship, I've greatly valued the opportunity to host diverse voices on the show.Please note that for the next three months, commencing immediately, I will be taking a temporary hiatus specifically from accepting and scheduling new guest appearances. This focused period will allow me to dedicate time to writing my Mnemonic Fictional Memory Palace novel, deeply rooted in the history and locales of my home city, Portland, Maine.The BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour Podcast will continue its regular programming during this time. I look forward to resuming guest bookings in the fall.Thank you for your understanding.Sincerely,Grandpa BillBH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour Podcast

In this deeply personal episode of Hollywood Live with Tanya Hart, Tanya reflects on the devastating wildfires currently ravaging Los Angeles County. Drawing from her experience covering military coups and wars, she describes the unparalleled destruction in neighborhoods like historic Altadena and the Pacific Palisades, which have been nearly wiped off the map. Even iconic Hollywood landmarks, such as the Walk of Fame, Magic Castle, and Hollywood Bowl, narrowly escaped disaster thanks to the heroic efforts of firefighters. Celebrities like Diane Warren, Paris Hilton, and Maria Shriver have lost their homes, joining over 80,000 displaced residents. Maria Shriver's heartbreaking words, “Everything is gone,” resonate as Tanya details the emotional and physical toll on the community. With events like tonight's Lakers game canceled, Los Angeles remains on high alert as the fires rage on. Tanya offers her gratitude to the firefighters and shares her prayers for those affected.

It's the early 2000s, and I'm between sessions at the TEDx conference. As I go to grab a coffee, I notice this crowd forming nearby. Naturally curious, I wander over there to see what the fuss is about. In the middle of this crowd is a guy with a deck of cards doing a magic trick. But it's not just the trick itself that's amazing; it's the effect it's having on everyone around him. None of us can take our eyes off of him. It's like we're collectively holding our breath being caught in the moment as he performs trick after trick after trick. Like everyone else around me, I'm completely captivated, marveling at what's happening. “How does he do this?” I think to myself. I don't know how one person with just a deck of cards can make an entire group of strangers feel so connected, so in awe together. I realize at this point that it's not all about the magic. It's like this magician has created a shared experience of wonder for all of us and telling a story without even saying a single word. He wraps up the show, the crowd disperses, and I go stand in line to get my coffee still buzzing from the experience. I turn to my husband Mark and ask, “Who is that guy?” Mark smiles and says, “That's David Blaine.” Wow, I was completely unaware that I'd been watching one of the most famous magicians in the world! Yet what sticks with me, even all these years later, isn't just who he is; it's that unforgettable feeling of awe he created for everyone in that moment. So many magicians have that same capacity to captivate their audience. Rick Gerber is a professional magician who has been spending his entire life performing in multiple countries and every state in the U.S. In this episode of the Storytelling School Podcast, you'll hear about how thinking like a magician can help you discover creative solutions that'll create astonishing stories that linger in people's minds. You'll also get answers to questions such as: In what ways can you creatively engage with your audience to enhance the storytelling experience? How can you get into the flow state as you perform your Talk or story? And how can embracing the unexpected lead to surprising discoveries that create unforgettable stories for your audience? What you will learn in this episode: How closely observing your audience for clues benefits your storytelling How you can captivate your audience with a shared experience at the very beginning Why you need to know your audience to set the right tone from the start Who is Rick? For over 40 years, Rick Gerber has been traveling the world creating laughter and gasps of astonishment at high-profile special events, trade shows, and as the headliner aboard some of the world's most prestigious cruise ships. He has performed his incredible magic in all fifty states and over forty-five countries. Presidents, kings, and megastars in movies, TV, and music have witnessed firsthand his ability to distort reality before their watchful eyes. Rick became the youngest performer at the world-famous Magic Castle in Hollywood at 10 years old. At age 21, he was put under contract with Budweiser and performed for them full-time at trade shows and special VIP events around the globe for decades. Most recently, he was elected by his magician peers to the Board of Directors of the prestigious Academy of Magical Arts--home at the World-Famous Magic Castle in Hollywood, CA. Today, Rick's Fortune 500 clients read like a Who's Who of the corporate world--Monster Energy, T-Mobile, GE, Acura, DIRECTV, Coca-Cola, Dell Technologies, Nestlé, and hundreds of smaller businesses as well. Whether it's attracting crowds and gathering leads at trade shows, performing at special events, mingling in VIP hospitality suites, producing magic-themed events, or performing his stage show at corporate sales meetings for hundreds or thousands of attendees, companies can always count on him to deliver.

In the middle of this “Month of Boo,” we are getting much more serious about “things that go bump in the night” as we feature a Magic Castle member who regularly performs seances aboard the Queen Mary. This grand old ship sailed for 31 years before being permanently docked in Long Beach, California, operating as a passenger liner from 1936 to 1967. Michael's seance is called “57 Ghosts” which runs sporadically throughout the year, but five nights a week now through November 3, 2024. For more information, Click Here. View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize We begin our chat discussing the loss of a mutual friend, Greg Arce, then go on to talk about other seance venues and how Michael got involved with and focusing on the Queen Mary. He shares several stories from the Queen that are, no doubt, also told with much more detail during the seance.

Mike McCarty and James Knight are brothers, even if they don't have the same last name. And they are the hosts of a new horror podcast called The Head, the Tail and the Whole Damn Thing. It's not your ordinary horror podcast as you will soon learn. I have known Mike forever. He is a special effects make-up artist who has worked on Blade Runner 2049, Mind Hunter, The Exorcist, The Orville, Stan Against Evil, if anyone remembers that show. James is an actor and educator but together, they share a love of all things creepy, and, most importantly, they are great guys and they're super funny.

Rob is an actor, and an author and a musician, a Valley kid, who has since gone on to become a professional illusionist and a walking encyclopedia if all things magic. Rob runs the Houdini seance at The Magic Castle and is here today to talk about the history of Midnight Spook Shows!

We'll discuss which film version is closest to the book, and why, but also ask, how much does that actually matter?
