In this podcast, we went over everything we love about this routine, along with a lot more, including…
- Why we decided to learn every ‘which hand’ routine we could find in 7 days
- The greatest ‘which hand’ performances we’ve witnessed (ft. Derren Brown)
- Why the which hand routine is ‘disproportionately powerful’ (we go deep into magic theory and Jacob gets flustered)
- How to create magic content like Mr. Beast (minus the island)
- A simple rule for busy magicians that can 10x how often you perform
- A controversial definition of ‘magic’ and our reaction to it
- Why being a magician IS cool (and how to own it better)
- The best 'which hand' routines (and why presentation beats the lot)
