This week were discussing all things Magic from Ancient Egypt to modern times, Paul Daniels to Penn and Teller sand the oldest trick in the book...Richard told a guy on a train that he would so thats what we're doing... but before that we got distracted for 10 mins so theres plenty of variety this week.
EDIT: Richard got some of his dates wrong in his telling about William Robinson. He died in 1918 at the Wood Green Empire in London in his mid 50s. As opposed to being Mid 30s and getting shot in the late 1800's. With this its important to note that Paul Daniels got the same shooter to perform the same trick on the Paul Daniels Magic Show some 50 years later.
Just clearing that up for the magic history buffs.
