Main Topic: Today's episode is all about Ego Meeting Soul (the inner vs outer world of writing) In our last episode of the mini podcast series The Book You Were Born to Write, we listened for the first whispers of the book inside you. We honored that quiet knowing — the call to finally write the book that's been circling your spirit. And today… we're stepping into the next phase. The moment when the whisper gets louder… And fear shows up, too. Because the truth is: Wanting to be seen… and fearing that visibility… Often live side by side in the writer's heart.

It's not usually time. It's not lack of talent. It's not even discipline. It's the shadow voices that rise up when we start getting close to something real. Things like: “What if people think I'm full of myself?” “Who am I to write this?” “What if I pour my soul onto the page and nobody cares?” That's not laziness. That's vulnerability. That's ego doing its job — trying to protect you from pain, rejection, exposure. And I want to say this with all the tenderness I can: Your ego is not the enemy. Your ego is trying to keep you safe. It's the part of you that learned to please, to perform, to protect. And when you start writing something true — something sacred — That part gets nervous. Because soul-led writing isn't just about ideas. It's about embodiment. And embodiment means being seen. But here's the secret: You don't need to kill the ego. You just need to give it a new job. Let it become the steward of structure. Let it help you organize your message. Let it take care of the outline, the deadlines, the goals. Let your soul guide the content. Let your ego support the container. This is what I call writing from alignment. Structure + spirit. Mastery + mystery. Ego + soul. Let me tell you a quick story. Earlier this year, I was working on creating content for my audience. I felt alive while think about it — raw, truthful, exposed. But every time I sat down to finish it or thought about posting it, I froze. I wasn't stuck because of the craft. I was stuck because I was afraid. Afraid of what people would think. Afraid it would change how I was seen. Afraid it would change who I was allowed to be. So I did what I now teach my clients to do: I paused. I lit a candle. I asked: “Who is this content for?” “What do they need to hear?” “What am I protecting by staying silent?” And my soul said: “This story is medicine. But only if you let it be seen.” So I finished it. I sent the email; I've been posting the content. And the response? Emails. Messages. Tears. Connection. Not because it was perfect. But because it was true. That is the power of writing from soul. It's not about proving. It's about revealing. And when ego and soul are in right relationship, your book becomes unstoppable. So I've created a little tool to help you check in with where you are in that dance. It's a simple quiz — part journal worksheet, part self-discovery ritual — called: “Where Is Your Ego Helping… and Where Is It Hijacking?” It'll help you recognize: When you're over-editing out of fear When your visibility blocks are in charge When your ego is actually your greatest asset You can download it for free at valerieihsan.com/soulwhisperpages And if you're feeling ready to move deeper into this work — If you know the book inside you is real, but the fear feels louder than the fire right now — I'd love to offer you a Soul Strategy Session. It's a 60–90 minute sacred space, just you and me. We'll talk about what's calling to be written. What's standing in your way. And what aligned next step will open the gates. You'll leave with clarity, a custom plan, and a little magic. You can book that now at valerieihsan.com/scheduler or send me a DM @valerieihsan. You're not behind. You're unfolding. Your story is sacred. Your fear is human. And your book is waiting — not for your perfection, but for your yes. Next episode, we're talking about legacy. The kind that lives in hearts, in hands, in pages passed down like medicine. Until then… Be gentle. Be honest. Be listening. Next episode: is about legacy. Not the legacy of awards or bestseller lists. But the kind of legacy that changes hearts. That shifts the field. That ripples out long after you're gone.

Eine neue Folge gibt es noch, bevor unsere Sommerpause beginnt. In der 195. Ausgabe des SpielBar Podcasts war Marco wieder einmal zu Gast bei den Freunden fürs Extraleben. In gewohnter Manier wird dort gepflegt über die zuletzt gespielten Videospiele schwadroniert und natürlich sprechen wir auch über den heißen Scheiß im Newsbereich. Auf dem "Zuletzt gespielt?!"-Teller lag ganz ofenfrisch Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound und die Demo zu SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance. Dazu eine Prise Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, ein alter Schnack im Remaster-Gewand mit System Shock 2 und das ausgesprochen famose Back to the Dawn. Kurze Updates zu Doom: The Dark Ages, Split Fiction und einem Fehlkauf namens Deliver At All Costs. Abgerundet wurde der sonst sehr formidable Schmaus mit einem wohl längst vergangenen Klassiker: The Lord of the Rings Online. Guten Appetit! In den News widmen wir uns ausführlich dem kürzlichen Nintendo Partner Direct und nahezu ähnlich gehaltvoll auch dem Showcase von THQ Nordic. Battlefield 6 wurde außerdem offiziell vorgestellt - was sagen wir dazu? Auf offizielle Details zu Bioshock hingegen warten wir vergebens ... aber das was Jason Schreier uns aufdeckte sieht alles andere als verzehrbar aus. Reality Labs, ehemals Oculus VR verbrennt weiterhin Milliarde um Milliarde. Wir fragen wozu der ganze Bums überhaupt noch existiert und Nintendo wird die neue Nintendo Switch 2 förmlich aus der Hand gerissen. Wir wünschen viel Spaß mit dieser neuen Episode und bleibt den Pixeln treu! Abonniert und bewertet uns gerne - das hilft dem kleinen Projekt hier und noch einmal die Info: wir sind erstmal in der Sommerpause. Bis dahin und bis ganz bald!
In dieser Folge wird's mal wieder köstlich, denn es dreht sich alles um die perfekte Verbindung von Wein und sommerlichen Gerichten. Zu Gast sind dafür zwei absolute Hochkaräter aus der Hamburger Gastro-Szene: Marianus von Hörsten und Aaron Hasenpusch vom Restaurant Klinker. Mit den beiden sprechen Lou und Jonas über saisonale Zutaten, leichte Aromen und was im Sommer nicht nur auf den Teller, sondern auch ins Glas gehört. Dafür dreht sich alles um die Sommerklassiker Tomate, Zucchini, Pfirsich, Fenchel und Erbsen, wie sie im Klinker interpretiert werden und natürlich, welche Weine dazu passen. Wein der Woche: Krack Blanc de Blancs Brut Nature 2021 Der Krack Blanc de Blancs Brut Nature 2021 ist eine elegante Cuvée aus Chardonnay und Weißburgunder aus der malerischen Pfalz. Im Glas zeigt er sich in klarem Strohgelb mit einer feinen, lebendigen Perlage. In der Nase entfalten sich Aromen von grüner Melone, nassem Kies und gelbem Steinobst. Am Gaumen überzeugt er mit einer knackigen Säurestruktur und ist damit ein idealer Begleiter zu leichten Sommergerichten wie mildem Fisch oder zart gebratenem Geflügel. Weinlexikon: P wie Pouilly-Fumé Pouilly-Fumé ist ein Weißwein aus der Rebsorte Sauvignon Blanc, der aus der Gemeinde Pouilly-sur-Loire im Osten der Loire stammt, genauer gesagt aus dem Département Nièvre in der Region Centre-Val de Loire – direkt gegenüber von Sancerre. Der Wein wird ausschließlich aus Sauvignon Blanc gekeltert und zeichnet sich durch seinen häufigen Ausbau im Holz aus, was ihm die namensgebende rauchige Note („fumé“) verleiht. Typisch sind Aromen von Feuerstein, Zitrusfrüchten und Stachelbeere. Im Vergleich zu vielen anderen Sauvignon-Stilen wirkt Pouilly-Fumé oft komplexer und strukturierter. Wichtig: Nicht zu verwechseln mit Pouilly-Fuissé – dabei handelt es sich um Chardonnay aus dem Burgund. Genau das Richtige für Deine Weinprobe und zum Üben von Verkostungen: Das Cheers!

Fifth generation Diné (Navajo) weavers Lynda Teller Pete and Barbara Teller Ornelas have been instrumental in rewriting the history and narrative surrounding Navajo weaving, a realm that for too long has been dominated by non-Navajo voices. This is exemplified by their two groundbreaking books Spider Woman's Children: Navajo Weavers Today and How to Weave a Navajo Rug and Other Lessons from Spider Woman, as well as their integral role in the creation of the exhibition Shaped by the Loom: Weaving Worlds in the American Southwest at the Bard Graduate Center, New York. Curator Hadley Jensen also joins us in this 2023 two-part episode from the Dressed archive. Want more Dressed: The History of Fashion?

2023 wurde Mona Schrader mit dem „Service Award“ des Guide Michelin Deutschland ausgezeichnet – als beste Gastgeberin des Landes. Das ist wie drei Sterne plus – gleich einem Ritterschlag, eigentlich ohnegleichen. Doch die Kunst von Mona ist, sich darauf nicht auszuruhen. Auch wenn sie sich zu gerne euphorisieren lässt und diese Begeisterung ungefragt mit allen teilt, ist sie keine Ja-Sagerin, sondern ein kritischer Zeitgeist, eine freisinnige Fachfrau – und vor allem eine neugierige Sommelière. „Wein und Speisen müssen sich ergänzen wie ein Paar, das vollendet miteinander tanzt.“ – Dieser Satz bringt auf den Punkt, was Mona Schrader im Restaurant Jante in Hannover lebt: eine feinfühlige, präzise und gleichzeitig leidenschaftliche Verbindung von Küche, Wein und Gastlichkeit. Und das weit – nein, sehr weit – darüber hinaus. Diese geballte Energie sinnt nach Harmonie: zwischen den lukullischen Elementen, Gästen und Gastgebern – und natürlich auch betriebsklimatisch. Nicht um jeden Preis oder um des lieben Friedens willen, sondern als Bereicherung und, um sich gegenseitig zu bereichern. Ihre Weinbegleitungen sind mehr als bloße Pairings – sie sind flüssige Erzählstränge, die die Aromen auf dem Teller interpretieren, vertiefen und erweitern. Doch bei allem Anspruch bleibt sie bodenständig, aufmerksam, empathisch – eine Gastgeberin im besten Sinne. Im Gespräch erleben wir eine Frau, die nicht laut sein muss, um Eindruck zu hinterlassen – sondern eine, die durch Klarheit, Tiefe und echte Freude am Genuss berührt. Und das einfach ein wenig lebendiger – und völlig wohltuend unverkrampft. Ein Gespräch über Wein, Verantwortung, Gastlichkeit – und die Kunst, Menschen unvergessliche Abende zu bereiten.

Die Folge sprießt nur so vor lauter Ideen. Wer mehr über Kraterbeete und Kräuterrasen wissen möchte, hat eine spannende halbe Stunde vor sich. In dieser Folge sprechen wir darüber: ✨ wie man kleine Ökosysteme schafft, die resilient gegen Wetter und Schädlinge sind und gute Laune machen. ✨ welche Wildpflanzen besonders geeignet sind. ✨ wie man Schädlingen begegnet. ✨ warum sich dranbleiben lohnt, auch wenn Nachbarn, Vermieter oder die eigene Familie vielleicht nicht immer auf der grünen Welle mitschwimmen.

Send us a textIn this episode, I chat with Danielle Teller about how her creative journey defies conventional wisdom about career paths. From Yale-trained pulmonologist studying lung disease to acclaimed novelist, her story demonstrates how life's unexpected turns might lead us exactly where we're meant to be."I was a huge bookworm when I was a kid, but I was too chicken to actually write," Teller says. She explains how her fears centered on financial insecurity and feeling she lacked stories to tell, until a cross-country move disrupted her academic medical career and her husband encouraged her to pursue this long-held dream.Teller's latest novel, Forged, transports readers to America's Gilded Age through the story of Fanny, a desperate young woman navigating a Darwinian world of social stratification and ruthless capitalism. What makes this historical fiction particularly compelling is Teller's revelation that our current era mirrors that period of extreme wealth disparities and political corruption. "I think that my research reinforced my feeling that we are in a second Gilded Age," she explains, describing the disturbing parallels between past and present.Our conversation ventures beyond the novel to explore the publishing industry's subjective nature, including how finding the right agent resembles "matchmaking." Teller's unique perspective shapes characters who defy traditional female protagonist tropes, creating women who actively forge their own destinies despite societal constraints.Subscribe, leave a review, and share this episode to help more readers discover thought-provoking historical fiction that illuminates both past and present.Danielle TellerForged, Danielle TellerOrbital, Samantha HarveyThe Elements of Eloquence, Mark ForsythGoddess Complex, Sanjena SathianSupport the showThe Bookshop PodcastMandy Jackson-BeverlySocial Media Links

Eine Schwalbe macht vielleicht noch keinen Sommer – ein reisenervöser Thomas Schmitt, der sich „zur Sicherheit“ gleich den ersten Ferienflieger morgens um 05:30 Uhr gebucht hat, um ja nichts von der eigenen, zu erwartenden schlechten Laune des Anreisetags zu verpassen, hingegen schon. „Jetzt ist Urlaub!“ hört man Deutschland aufatmen. Wenn der Bub erst mal wieder am All-inclusive-Buffet steht und Side-Eye macht, wer sich hier wie viele Pancakes gleichzeitig auf den Teller schaufelt – um dann mit wutgeschlitzten Augen den anderen Hotelgästen ihre Nutellavorräte madig zu gucken. Dann, ja DANN ist Urlaub. „Die verrückten Vier auf Achse“ kann Thomas auch allein – und wundert sich sogar noch, warum er die resorteigene Willkommensparade durcheinanderbringt, indem er, durchs Reisefieber gepeinigt als wären Ray Liottas Hubschrauber hinter ihm her, am offiziellen Parkplatz des Hauses vorbeifährt, um dann den Miet-Fiat irgendwo kurz vorm Pool mit quietschenden Reifen und kaltem Schweiß auf der Stirn zum Stehen zu bringen. „Welcome Mr. Schmitt, wir war ihre Anreise? Sie haben ja Nasenbluten!“ Klaas ist ebenfalls im Urlaubsmodus – erkennbar daran, dass er in dieser schönsten Zeit des Jahres eigentlich nicht mehr zwischen Tag- und Schlafmode unterscheidet und seine Entspannung hauptsächlich dadurch zum Ausdruck bringt, in seiner Unterwäsche durch Griechenland zu laufen. Haben die früher in der Antike ja sicher nicht anders gemacht dort – jedenfalls sieht das auf diesen angebröselten Statuen, die überall rumstehen, so aus. Der Einzige, der aktuell sein Nichtstun noch im Büro auslebt, ist Jakob. Muss man sich mal vorstellen: Ausgerechnet er – das menschgewordene Versace-Seidenhemd – hat sich mit den bereits genommenen Urlaubstagen etwas verkalkuliert und muss nun, St.-Tropez-mäßig aufgebrezelt im Matthias-Mangiapane-Look, im Büro tagelang auf seinem fertig gepackten Weekender sitzen. Er muss sich wirklich wahnsinnig beherrschen, nicht aus Versehen doch mal eine E-Mail zu beantworten, oder ans Telefon zu gehen, bis es nächste Woche endlich heißt: Ihr Flug Richtung „Café de Paris“ steht für Sie zum Einstieg bereit. RESCHPEKT! Offenlegung: Diese Folge scheint wirklich absolut entkoppelt von der echten Welt. Als wäre nichts passiert in den letzten zehn Jahren. Aber ist es nicht genau das was wir alle gerade suchen? Ganz und gar „Summer Breeze“ eben – lehnt euch zurück & genießt. Du möchtest mehr über unsere Werbepartner erfahren?

Today's episode is all about Hearing the Call. That moment when the idea of writing a book stops being a far-off fantasy... and starts feeling like destiny. You might not feel ready. You might not know what you want to say yet. But if you're listening to this right now — I have a hunch that something is stirring. That stirring? That's your soul whispering: It's time.

Not just any book. Not a content machine. Not a regurgitation of things you've already taught. But the book. The one that's been flickering in the corners of your dreams, tapping on your shoulder during still moments, and sighing in your chest when you imagine a life fully expressed. Notes: This is what I call the Soul Whisper. It's the part of you that knows… There's something you haven't said yet. There's a story still vibrating in your ribcage. There's a message that could outlive you—if you let it. But then… the thoughts come in. “Who am I to write this?” “I don't have time.” “It's all been said before.” “What if no one cares?” And I want to pause here and say something important: You are not behind. You are not broken. You are not too late. You are exactly on time. These doubts are not evidence that the dream is wrong. They are evidence that it matters. Here's what I've learned in all my years as a coach, writer, The desire to write a book doesn't come to everyone. If it's coming to you, it's for a reason. And even if you don't feel ready… Even if you're not sure what the book is about yet… Even if you're scared — Your book already knows you. It's been circling you for years. (Big Magic idea) And the whisper you're hearing now? That's the sound of your soul making contact. Here's what I want you to know: You don't have to write every day. You don't need to have the whole thing outlined. You don't need to quit your business or disappear into a writing cave for three years. What you need is this: Stillness. Curiosity. And a commitment to listen. That's what this first phase is about. Not rushing into productivity. But devotion. Not output… but alignment. If this is resonating with you — if your body is saying “yes” even while your mind is saying “wait” — then I invite you to deepen the conversation. I've created a free journaling ritual for you, called “The Soul Whisper Pages.” It's a set of guided prompts and a short audio meditation that will help you connect to the essence of the book that wants to come through. You can download that now at https://valerieihsan.com/soulwhisperpages. And before we close, I want to leave you with a question: If your book could speak to you right now… what would it say? Write it down. No editing. Just channel. Next episode: Next time, we'll explore what happens after you say yes—when ego and soul begin their wild and necessary dance. It's vulnerable. It's thrilling. And it's where your book truly begins to take form. Until then… Trust the whisper. It's not going anywhere. It's waiting for you to answer.

JP: House of Frank (Kay Synclaire) Valerie: Just finished: One of Us Knows (Alyssa Cole) Your Human Design (Shayna and Dana; DayLuna); The Five-Star Weekend (Elin Hilderbrand) (Not ready to give up on them, but struggling to finish them:) Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals by Oliver Burkeman; The Year of the Puppy (Alexandra Horowitz) ; The Teller of Small Fortunes Julie Leong Erick: Segment 2 (Resources/Tips/Tidbits): Tidbit #1: • Tidbit #2: Segment 3 (Main Topic): Talking with guest JP Rindfleisch IX ABOUT Hi, I'm JP Rindfleisch IX—author of cozy, queer fantasy and strange fiction where whimsy meets the weird. My stories often explore grief, transformation, and queer joy, wrapped in a little magic, a dash of mischief, and a whole lot of heart. I'm the author of Mandrake Manor and Mosswood Apothecary. I also co-write NRDS: National Recently Deceased Services, a paranormal comedy series, and the Leah Ackerman Dark Paranormal Academy Series. I call Rockford, Illinois home, where I founded Rockford Area Writers, a growing community of 80+ local authors and creatives who support each other's craft. When I'm not writing, you can usually find me wandering forest trails, stirring vegan kitchen witchery (potatoes-as-nacho-cheese is a specialty), or hosting writing sprints and cozy chaos over on Twitch as CheshirePope. I live with a very opinionated husky and an even more talkative African grey parrot. Both have strong opinions about storytelling. Thanks for stopping by. Make yourself at home—browse the shop, grab a tale (or two), and if you sit still long enough, I just might tell you a story. Notes: Let's talk about Kickstarters. Last month you had 338 backers pledge $18,040 for your first kickstarter. All stretch goals met, funded in seven minutes ($1000) Why crowdfunding? good feedback and engagement with Tapas (and Kindle Vella). Kickstarter backer himself. Researched kickstarter by interviewing authors that had done it. Watch the kickstarters and how they interacted. Sacha Black helped him with good advice. (Find her as author Ruby Roe.) Campaign planning: tiers need to be financially responsible; stretch goals; What makes it special HERE on KS. Steps to a Kickstarter (KS): 1. Set up "Notify me on Launch" to collect followers (sudo-preorder) (4 months to a year) Maybe the amount of followers is who pledged? You don't have to have all the pieces ready before hitting "pre" launch. 1.5 (order basic sample copy for physical imagery) before hitting Launch. (Optional) 2. Look for successful models on KS to copy as template. Use Canva for images needed. Six hours to upload copy and photos for all the add ons (backlist). (~20 hours total?) 3. To keep campaign active and live, update often (every two days). On Twitch every day to incentivize and hype. Live streaming on Twitch and IG to pitch fast. Find ways to grab people. Think through livestream campaigns in future so not repeating self. (Can have live stretch-goals and they don't have to be monetary.) Hype is about showing up. TikToks everyday, and refining what say and ingraining what I want to say. Productivity streams on Twitch helped practice those talking times in front of camera. Learned how to fill the dead air/space. 4. Backing drives ups the popularity of the campaign. (More backers = shows up in recommendations (for 1st time campaigners), and can get into categories (through review process). Projects we love list is great. Hype or backing helps it gets seen, and then KS sends emails to their list, too. 2nd campaigners get KS to email previous backers that you have a new campaign coming out. 5. Launch time: watching the numbers, handling messages and comments that come in, admin, verbiage changed for unlocks and photo switches, write updates. Can use page after launch is over as a newsletter sort-of. Add links to updates to invite them to your newsletters. Opt-in to newsletter in final survey. 6. Tiers planning: Think through what they will be, and how your backers will interact with that. (Tiers from JP's campaign: Digital, PB special edition, HC special edition, HC with prints and stickers, resellers or clubs 5 copies, HC+painting and print. ) You want super-high tier because most people buy in the middle. How long to run the campaign? 30 days max. (17-20 days average) Saggy middle/plateaus are common. Miscellaneous: Add-ons are different than stretch goals: All your backlist books should be add-ons. Stretch goals can also fund (unlocked) add-ons. Wanted to add artwork. Kickstarter helps prove people want your idea. Collector's editions. Funding goal: what it would cost to print and ship the book. (Could include editing and cover design) Need to cost out the print run for a number to use. Discoverability: Hard on KS. Twitch fans productivity stream become street team to build following on Kickstarter. Use Kickstarter for Authors FB group. (Like newsletter swaps/literary citizenship.)

SPOILERS FOR ALL OF THE KINDRED'S CURSE SAGANicole and Lexi dive into chapters 8-15, exploring Diem's first full day as the new Queen of Lumnos, and it's just as chaotic as you'd expect. From dungeon blowups to emotionally devastating realizations about her powers, her mother, and what being Descended truly means… it's a lot. Nicole unpacks Diem's full-blown magical eruption (glowing vines! silver flames! crying in the dungeon!), while Lexi explores the high-stakes emotional crash that follows – along with what Diem's immortal future could mean for her relationships, especially with Teller. There's also a wild amount of flirting with both Luther (yay) and Henri (ugh). And oh yeah, remember Henri's marriage proposal? Weeeeellll, Diem finally has an answer!Plus: secret redemption notebooks, PLANT WATCH, power-hungry regents, and Eleanor absolutely stealing the show (again).Join the FanClub: https://fantasyfangirls.com/fanclubShop our merch: https://fantasyfangirls.myshopify.com/Support the show through our Amazon Shop: https://www.amazon.com/shop/fantasyfangirlspodcastNewsletter: https://fantasyfangirls.com/newsletterWebsite: https://www.fantasyfangirls.com/ Upcoming events:* Empyrean Trivia Party: https://events.humanitix.com/ffg-bng-empyrean-trivia-night/ticketsEncantiCon: https://www.enchanticon.com/TKCSEverflame Ball with Penn Cole: https://mountainsandmagic.com/everflame-ball/Dragon Gauntlet: https://www.rainandrevelryevents.com/dg2Romantasy BookCon: SOLD OUTThe Dreamers & Readers Festival - Use code FFG for a discount off your ticket!*For all Event Discounts - go to https://fantasyfangirls.supercast.com/subscriber_v2/posts/6891Listen now:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/24KydMMzrYfVpDggkFZx4j?si=fd7dc956393041b8Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/fantasy-fangirls/id1706179464YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@fantasyfangirlsFollow us:Instagram: @fantasyfangirlspodTikTok: @fantasyfangirlspod Hosted on Acast.

The story of Jonah like you've never seen it before. On this episode of The Interludes Podcast, Val “The Voice” Johnson sits down with Emma St. Kathryn, first-time director, and Erika Walton Sitzberger, actress and singer, to discuss Ionéu—a bold, reimagined stage production of the prophet Jonah's tale. Staged at the historic Athenaeum Center in Chicago, Ionéu blends Greek tragedy and folktale to unpack themes of justice, identity, and the transformative power of mercy. Erika shares how returning to the stage as Teller/Giàla has reshaped her creative journey, while Emma opens up about directing her first play and what it means to reinterpret a sacred story for a modern audience. Show Notes:
Often we don't know nor recognize those who work behind the scenes and spotlights. But they are the ones responsible for making the person in front of the curtains or camera look good. As they say, “it takes a village” and that is especially true for “stars” who make it on television and stage. One such person that is a “go-to” consultant is Joe Monti. When Criss Angel got his television deal for “Mind Freak”, Joe was one of the first people Criss called. As time went on and it became apparent how valuable Joe was, he also assumed the role of “producer”. Joe continues to this day to consult for magicians as well as performing for high profile corporate clients. He has even fooled Penn & Teller on their show, “Fool Us”. View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize My friendship with Joe Monti goes back nearly 40 years from when we performed together at Houston's Magic Island. It was good to catch up with a long-time friend this week as he shared many stories about what he has been doing during those years. He has a few “behind the scenes” stories to tell about working with Criss Angel plus his experience on “Penn & Teller Fool Us”.
