Enjoy Magic!  Magic has a rich history spanning over 4,000 years, beginning with ancient Egyptian magician Dedi, known for early “cut and restore” illusions. Modern magic was shaped by Jean Eugène Robert-Houdin in the 19th century, who brought illusions from street performances to theaters. The late 1800s to early 1900s, known as magic's Golden Age, featured stars like Harry Houdini, who popularized escape acts and debunked fake spiritualists. As we grew up, we got to see all kinds of spectacular magic that was so hyped we couldn't resist trying it ourselves. Magic remains a captivating blend of art, science, and mystery that continues to evolve, and we can't get enough!   Who's your favorite magician? Got any tricks of your own? First person that emails me with the subject line, “Expelliarmus!” will get a special mention on the show.  Let us know.
