ОТНОСТНО ТОЗИ ЕПИЗОД
A deck of cards turns into dental floss, a salt cellar melts through a table and a “Russian roulette” style routine somehow becomes a smart lesson in character and control. Tom Rolfe sends in one of the most varied Stranded with a Stranger lists we’ve had and every choice points to the same goal: close-up magic that feels like it could happen anywhere, with props that look normal until the moment they don’t.
We dig into why Gypsy Thread hits so hard when it’s framed as an everyday dental floss problem and how a simple transformation gimmick can steer the audience away from “here comes a card trick” and into something more surprising. From there we move through the workhorse power of Salt Cellar Through Table, the tension mechanics behind Hook by Eric Ross and a hard-to-find gem from Tobias Dostal that makes a lollipop look like it’s edited in real time.
The second half shifts into practical performance picks: Tenyo’s The Final Piece for a clear, self-working prediction in close-up or parlour and Contactless as a wallet-based prediction that earns its spot as a true everyday carry. We also hit two card effects that keep the magic where it belongs: in the spectator’s hands, including a torn and restored card using the M Case for an isolated, impossible ending.
Tom’s banishment sparks a real conversation about magic dealers chasing quick money, how to avoid buying tricks you’ll never use and why “bad” is sometimes just “not for me.” We wrap with a book that rewards repeat reads, Juan Tamariz’s The Magic Rainbow, plus the most on-brand non-magic item imaginable.
Please send us your Stranded with a Stranger lists to sales@alakazam.co.uk. Please include a little bio about your, your 8 tricks, their reasons, banishment, book and item!

00:00:33.759 --> 00:00:37.280
Hello and welcome to another episode of Stranded with the Stranger.
00:00:37.439 --> 00:00:45.759
This is our companion podcast to the Desert Island Tricks podcast where you get to send in your list to us and we can go through them.
00:00:45.920 --> 00:00:55.840
Now, if you want to be a part of one of these, then please send in your list of eight tricks one banishment, one book, and one non-magic item that you use for magic to sales at alakazam.co.uk.
00:00:56.240 --> 00:01:01.039
Please put in the subject line my desert island list, that way it comes through to me.
00:01:01.200 --> 00:01:10.480
Of course, put in a little bio about you, let us know a little bit about you, and then place in your tricks and, of course, the reasons behind your selections.
00:01:10.719 --> 00:01:12.640
We have a stranded stranger.
00:01:12.719 --> 00:01:18.480
He is shouting out all the way from Canada, from Ontario in Whitby.
00:01:18.719 --> 00:01:23.519
Now, he's not actually given us a little bit about him, but we know him very well.
00:01:23.680 --> 00:01:29.680
His name is Tom Rolfe, and I've had the absolute pleasure to meet him many, many times.
00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:35.680
He frequents the Magic Circle quite often, so a lot of you will have known him from the Magic Circle.
00:01:35.920 --> 00:01:43.920
He is super, super lovely, and I'm really excited to get into his list, so I know it's going to be really interesting.
00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:54.319
So, in his first position, Tom has put Gypsy Thread Using Dental Floss by Lonnie Chevry, with patter modified to fit me.
00:01:54.560 --> 00:02:03.519
He says his patter is much like notch changing the toilet roll, my family members forget to let me know when the dental floss is about to run out.
00:02:03.760 --> 00:02:08.159
Honorable mention to sellout gimmick, which I use to introduce the dental floss.
00:02:08.479 --> 00:02:12.000
It's a deck of cards transformation into Dental Floss.
00:02:12.479 --> 00:02:15.840
So I'm a huge, huge fan of gypsy thread.
00:02:16.000 --> 00:02:21.919
I think it's one of the most incredible impromptu looking effects.
00:02:22.080 --> 00:02:37.919
This is one of the ones where it's great to have this method and this routine in your little toolbox, your little mental toolbox, because if the right time calls, all you need to do is go to the local supermarket, pick up some thread, and you can do this effect.
00:02:38.159 --> 00:02:40.960
It really takes a very, very little setup.
00:02:41.439 --> 00:02:44.000
And there have been different versions over the years.
00:02:44.159 --> 00:02:46.159
I believe there was one with a balloon.
00:02:46.240 --> 00:02:52.719
I know Ben Hart, I saw him lecture his version, which uses an awful lot of thread, which was really, really good.
00:02:52.960 --> 00:02:55.280
Of course, you can get different kinds of threads now as well.
00:02:55.360 --> 00:02:59.680
You can get glow in the dark thread, which seems to be a popular one.
00:02:59.840 --> 00:03:08.080
And if you do want to learn them, of course, you have the wonderful Eugene Burger who teaches his version in a lot of his books.
00:03:08.400 --> 00:03:20.639
And if you go to the Magic Circle and you get the chance to see her lecture, then do check out Faye Presto's version as well, which is very similar to uh Eugene Burger's.
00:03:20.960 --> 00:03:27.680
But using it with Dental Floss, I think's really cool because it takes it, updates it, makes it more modern.
00:03:27.840 --> 00:03:29.919
And I love the idea of the sellout gimmick.
00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:32.879
So the sellout gimmick, I did have to Google this one.
00:03:33.120 --> 00:03:45.840
It's basically a large card, and when you uh play a large playing card, I should say, and when you tap the deck of cards, it turns into something, and in this case is turning into dental floss, which I really like.
00:03:45.919 --> 00:04:01.599
I I think the the idea that the audience is thinking that you're about to do a card trick, you tap the deck and it just turns into dental floss, which is so weird and bizarre, and then leading into gypsy thread, I think, is a wonderful idea.
00:04:01.759 --> 00:04:28.000
If you don't know what gypsy thread is, the idea is that you have a length of thread, in this case we've got dental floss, you break it into lots of little pieces, you roll them into a ball, and you place them onto one piece, so it kind of just floats there in the middle of one long piece, and then when you pull the end of that piece of thread, everything goes back together and completely restores into one long piece of thread.
00:04:28.160 --> 00:04:32.560
It's a stunning effect, it's really worth you learning if you've not learnt it.
00:04:32.800 --> 00:04:35.279
So it's a great one in at number one, Tom.
00:04:35.360 --> 00:04:36.800
Let's go to number two.
00:04:36.959 --> 00:04:39.279
So, sort seller through table.
00:04:39.439 --> 00:04:42.480
Tom says, a classic effect that everyone should perform.
00:04:42.639 --> 00:04:46.399
I've had so many strong positive reactions to this effect.
00:04:46.800 --> 00:04:48.720
Absolutely, what a great effect.
00:04:48.879 --> 00:04:54.079
And of course, this almost feels like a more impromptu version, I guess, than the bottle through table.
00:04:54.480 --> 00:04:57.920
But 100%, it's a great impromptu piece.
00:04:58.079 --> 00:05:03.040
I guess all you need is a napkin and a sort cellar, then you're ready to go.
00:05:03.279 --> 00:05:11.600
I like the idea that this is just uh another one of those ones that when you have the method in your mental toolbox, you've always got it there.
00:05:11.759 --> 00:05:14.560
You could always go into this trick whenever you want.
00:05:14.800 --> 00:05:21.439
And if you're someone who really wants to start practicing misdirection, then this is a great effect.
00:05:21.600 --> 00:05:25.600
It's a great one if you just want to build up your confidence with this style of routine.
00:05:25.680 --> 00:05:28.079
So I think there's a great one in number two.
00:05:28.480 --> 00:05:32.879
Number three is Hook by Eric Ross.
00:05:33.120 --> 00:05:43.120
This routine allows me to expand the range of effects I perform by giving me the opportunity to live within my character, but explore the stunt side of magic.
00:05:43.439 --> 00:05:52.399
And that's really interesting because when you meet Tom, he's a very gentle, very kind, likable character.
00:05:52.879 --> 00:06:03.600
And I like the idea that he wants to put in this slightly darker effect, but wants to still make it feel like it's part of his character.
00:06:03.839 --> 00:06:09.759
And I guess that's one of the hardest things when you're putting together a list of tricks that you're gonna perform.
00:06:09.920 --> 00:06:14.959
Not necessarily, you know, lists of things that you just love, but things that you're gonna perform.
00:06:15.120 --> 00:06:19.199
They all have to represent you and your character in a certain way.
00:06:19.360 --> 00:06:28.560
And this definitely is the curveball routine that I wouldn't have put in here for Tom, but I would love to see him perform it.
00:06:28.720 --> 00:06:30.160
I think this would be such a fun one.
00:06:30.319 --> 00:06:36.639
If you don't know what hook is, the idea is you have um a bunch of strings and a fish hook.
00:06:36.720 --> 00:06:41.759
You place the fish hook in your mouth, and one by one, audience members pull strings.
00:06:41.839 --> 00:06:44.240
One of them is attached to that fish hook.
00:06:44.399 --> 00:06:49.680
Hopefully, it's not gonna be the one that they pull, otherwise, it's gonna rip out your teeth.
00:06:49.759 --> 00:06:52.800
Um, so it's a very, very scary effect.
00:06:53.040 --> 00:07:03.519
It very much is a Russian roulette style effect, much like um obviously the classic spike version, or staple guns, or nail guns, or whichever version you're gonna do.
00:07:03.680 --> 00:07:05.839
Razor blades I've seen before as well.
00:07:05.920 --> 00:07:12.800
Um, so it can be a scary effect, but this is a very safe version, uh, and it's a very, very clever version as well.
00:07:13.040 --> 00:07:15.439
Definitely the curveball of this list as well.
00:07:15.600 --> 00:07:18.480
So I think it's a great one in at number three.
00:07:18.639 --> 00:07:20.399
Let's go to number four.
00:07:20.879 --> 00:07:23.199
Pop by Tobias Dostal.
00:07:23.360 --> 00:07:30.959
A very visual magic effect which leaves you in a position to hand out a small gift, perfect for adults and children.
00:07:31.519 --> 00:07:38.720
Now I'm gonna be honest, I had to actually reach out to Tom on this one because I couldn't find anything about this routine online.
00:07:39.120 --> 00:07:48.319
It was very difficult to find, and I do know that uh when we put these episodes out, we do get a lot of emails and messages of people wanting to find the effect.
00:07:48.480 --> 00:07:51.360
So I reached out to Tom, and here's what he said.
00:07:51.519 --> 00:07:56.480
He said, Pop is something Tobias sold and lectured at Blackpool.
00:07:56.560 --> 00:07:58.959
There's no instructions or video aids, etc.
00:07:59.199 --> 00:08:02.639
If you weren't in the lecture, it's unlikely you know about it.
00:08:02.800 --> 00:08:10.240
The effect is a candy lollipop which you appear to pull off a stick into your mouth and then blow back onto the stick.
00:08:10.399 --> 00:08:12.720
It literally looks like trick photography.
00:08:12.959 --> 00:08:18.560
Maybe at some point he'll launch it, but for now it appears to be staying under the radar.
00:08:19.199 --> 00:08:23.680
So yeah, it does seem to be one of those uh like bitten and restored effects.
00:08:23.759 --> 00:08:26.480
So you bite the lollipop off and you spit it on.
00:08:26.639 --> 00:08:30.800
Um, and maybe this is one that he will release in the future.
00:08:31.040 --> 00:08:33.600
But I'm just looking at Tom's list so far.
00:08:33.759 --> 00:08:39.600
So regular listeners know that for some weird reason I like to pull these lists apart.
00:08:39.759 --> 00:08:53.360
And when you look at his list so far, we've got gypsy thread, but with dental floss, we've got a sort seller-through table, we've got hook, which is the fish hook Russian roulette routine, and now we have a bitten and restored lollipop.
00:08:53.919 --> 00:08:57.679
When we talk about, you know, at a gig, you want photo opportunities.
00:08:57.919 --> 00:09:01.279
Imagine all of these as snapshot moments.
00:09:01.600 --> 00:09:07.600
So, you know, you'd have him pulling the gypsy fred dental floss into a big line in front of his face.
00:09:07.679 --> 00:09:09.039
That would be a photo opportunity.
00:09:09.200 --> 00:09:13.679
A sort seller where he's sort of focusing on the sort cellar going through the table.
00:09:13.840 --> 00:09:22.879
Hook, you you he would have all of these strings coming from his mouth, and now pop by Tobias Dostal with a lollipop, uh, which you know he's spitting back on.
00:09:23.120 --> 00:09:36.240
I think in terms of quirky routines, all of these really have those prominent photo opportunity moments, and I think that's uh a really interesting list.
00:09:36.320 --> 00:09:41.440
Now, now that we know this about his first four, where do we think the rest are gonna go?
00:09:41.600 --> 00:09:43.039
Okay, so we've got four more.
00:09:43.200 --> 00:09:44.799
Where do you think number five is gonna go?
00:09:44.960 --> 00:09:47.519
Do we think that we're gonna go into a card trick?
00:09:47.600 --> 00:09:49.360
Because we've not had a card trick yet.
00:09:49.519 --> 00:09:54.240
He did say sell out, which you know is a deck of cards into Dental Fluss, but I wouldn't say that's a card trick.
00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:55.759
So let's go to number five.
00:09:55.919 --> 00:09:59.120
Number five is the final piece by Tenyo.
00:09:59.440 --> 00:10:03.200
Something I perform either in a close-up or parlor environment.
00:10:03.440 --> 00:10:08.480
Since the effect is almost self-working, you can focus all your energy on presentation.
00:10:09.200 --> 00:10:11.279
This is such a wonderful effect.
00:10:11.440 --> 00:10:14.639
We actually have this in the shop set up permanently.
00:10:14.720 --> 00:10:17.279
So we have a small easel with a cloth over it.
00:10:17.360 --> 00:10:22.240
So if you're ever in the shop and you wonder what that is, just look up on the shelf and you'll see it there.
00:10:22.480 --> 00:10:23.759
It's just a wonderful effect.
00:10:23.840 --> 00:10:29.919
If you don't know what the effect is, the idea is that you have something on an easel, you can have it covered.
00:10:30.000 --> 00:10:36.399
Let's say it's covered for this effect, and you have lots of pieces of puzzle uh in a tray.
00:10:36.559 --> 00:10:41.279
You have them take several face-down pieces out of the uh tray.
00:10:41.440 --> 00:10:43.440
They can pick whichever one they like.
00:10:43.919 --> 00:10:54.480
As soon as they're happy with their choice, and it really is a free choice, you uncover the thing that's on the table to show a puzzle on an easel, but there is one piece missing.
00:10:54.639 --> 00:10:57.519
Of course, the piece that they've taken out goes into it.
00:10:57.679 --> 00:11:01.840
It's a self-working trick, and it's also ridiculously priced for what it is.
00:11:01.919 --> 00:11:03.919
It's very, very, very affordable.
00:11:04.159 --> 00:11:07.039
I also have this set up on my bookshelf at home.
00:11:07.200 --> 00:11:16.000
I think it's just a wonderful effect, and it really is a parlor/slash close-up version of this legendary effect.
00:11:16.159 --> 00:11:19.600
Uh, so it's very much one that if you don't have it, look into it.
00:11:19.679 --> 00:11:21.120
It's very affordable.
00:11:21.360 --> 00:11:24.320
It's a self-working piece, you don't have to worry about anything.
00:11:24.399 --> 00:11:27.279
It's all about the presentation, like Tom just said.
00:11:27.440 --> 00:11:28.480
So do go check it out.
00:11:28.559 --> 00:11:34.080
And of course, again, when we're looking at Tom's list, we've now got a puzzle, you know.
00:11:34.240 --> 00:11:48.720
All of these things feel very organic, all of the props that he's using, lollipops, a fish hook, I guess, is organic, a salt cellar, dental floss, all of these things just feel like he's just reached out, picked it up, and done this amazing thing with it.
00:11:48.799 --> 00:11:50.159
So let's go to number six.
00:11:50.240 --> 00:11:53.519
He's put contactless by Alakazan Magic.
00:11:53.600 --> 00:11:56.240
This wallet-based prediction effect is my everyday carry.
00:11:56.559 --> 00:12:00.960
I've performed this for years and the wallet is still in fantastic shape.
00:12:01.279 --> 00:12:01.679
100%.
00:12:02.159 --> 00:12:10.080
This is a wonderful effect by Harry and Pete, and it is a like Tom just said, it's a wallet prediction effect.
00:12:10.320 --> 00:12:14.080
When I first saw it, I thought it's such a brilliantly clever idea.
00:12:14.320 --> 00:12:16.559
Again, it feels incredibly organic.
00:12:16.799 --> 00:12:20.639
Like Tom's list, you know, everything feels super organic.
00:12:20.799 --> 00:12:28.799
This is something that he just has in his pocket, he can pull it out, and maybe one day we should do like an everyday carry list.
00:12:29.039 --> 00:12:34.080
Because I would love to know what everyone has as their top eight everyday carry effects.
00:12:34.159 --> 00:12:39.519
So maybe that's going to be another spin-off of the other two spin-offs that we've already got to the main podcast.
00:12:39.600 --> 00:12:40.960
But that would be really, really interesting.
00:12:41.039 --> 00:12:43.440
I wonder what everyone's top eight everyday carries are.
00:12:43.600 --> 00:12:48.720
If you're listening to this on YouTube, actually, let's see if we can get a couple of lists down below.
00:12:48.879 --> 00:12:51.759
Uh let us know what your everyday carry list would be.
00:12:52.000 --> 00:12:53.279
Let's go to the last two.
00:12:53.360 --> 00:12:55.840
So we're on the tail end of Tom's list.
00:12:56.000 --> 00:13:03.279
We've got Double Back by John Allen, a lovely transposition card effect which happens in the participants' hands.
00:13:03.440 --> 00:13:10.080
It involves some relatively simple card slats, which keeps you in the moment and has a stunningly visual reveal.
00:13:10.320 --> 00:13:15.519
Now, this is one that we actually revisited at the shop literally three weeks ago, I think.
00:13:15.679 --> 00:13:22.799
We did a social video because Andy started gigging it again and he said, you know what, I forgot how wonderful this effect is.
00:13:23.039 --> 00:13:27.519
We should really let more people know about this that maybe haven't seen it before.
00:13:27.679 --> 00:13:30.399
It really is one of the cleanest card tricks.
00:13:30.559 --> 00:13:33.120
It is so, so clean.
00:13:33.440 --> 00:13:39.519
And considering the magic moment, the amount of work behind it is minuscule.
00:13:39.679 --> 00:13:44.080
It is absolutely so achievable for anyone.
00:13:44.240 --> 00:13:53.039
It's a very, very clever idea, a very simple idea, but it always to me feels like one of those effects that you can really build on.
00:13:53.120 --> 00:13:56.559
This could really lead you into different other avenues.
00:13:56.720 --> 00:13:59.679
And it is the first card effect that we have on here.
00:13:59.759 --> 00:14:03.360
But of course, it's a packet trick, so it's not really a full deck thing.
00:14:03.519 --> 00:14:07.360
So it's a great, great choice if you're gonna do a packet trick.
00:14:07.600 --> 00:14:14.320
So his last one is torn and restored card using the M case by Mikhail Chatelaine.
00:14:14.559 --> 00:14:20.159
My patter consists of asking people to participate in an observation and imagination test.
00:14:20.320 --> 00:14:25.519
The end result usually leaves people speechless or running, screaming from me.
00:14:26.159 --> 00:14:27.600
What a great choice.
00:14:27.759 --> 00:14:36.480
Now, if you don't know what this is, it's a utility prop, it's a uh card box which allows you to switch things effectively.
00:14:36.639 --> 00:14:42.559
Um, and the idea of using it as a tournament restored is such a brilliant, brilliant idea.
00:14:42.799 --> 00:14:46.559
Everything happens in the hand of the participant as well, which is great.
00:14:46.720 --> 00:14:52.080
Uh, you anyone that does tournament restore cards knows that normally it's in the performer's hand.
00:14:52.240 --> 00:14:58.240
So to have something like this happen so impossibly in the spectator's hand is such a great idea.
00:14:58.399 --> 00:15:09.279
And you know, placing the card inside the card box to isolate it actually makes it feel more impossible because there's no way that the performer could actually touch it or interfere with it in any way.
00:15:09.440 --> 00:15:13.039
So I think that's a great way to close out your list.
00:15:13.360 --> 00:15:17.759
So we had Gypsy Thread using Dental Floss with an honourable mention to sell out.
00:15:17.919 --> 00:15:33.600
We had Sort Seller Through Table, Hook by Eric Ross, Pop by Tobias Dostal, The Final Piece by Tenyo, Contactless by Alakazan, Double Back by John Allen, and the Retorn and R Torn and Restored Card using MKs by Mikhail Chatellaine.
00:15:33.840 --> 00:15:37.200
A great list, a very, very varied list as well.
00:15:37.360 --> 00:15:39.840
An incredibly, incredibly varied list, in fact.
00:15:40.080 --> 00:15:44.240
But Tom, we are about to dig a big sandy hole.
00:15:44.399 --> 00:15:47.039
You're not here, so I guess I'm having to do all the work today.
00:15:47.360 --> 00:15:51.039
I'm gonna dig a big sandy hole on your behalf, throw something inside.
00:15:51.120 --> 00:15:52.639
What am I gonna throw inside?
00:15:52.879 --> 00:16:00.159
Tom says, if I'm allowed to make a banishment, I would get rid of all the magic dealers who are just out to make a buck.
00:16:00.399 --> 00:16:07.360
There is so much great magic being created and released to the community ongoing, but sometimes bad magic gets in the way.
00:16:07.600 --> 00:16:16.720
Money is tight and nothing puts you off more than wasting a penny on an effect or gimmick that upon inspection you'll never use.
00:16:17.919 --> 00:16:21.919
And I think this is a really interesting banishment.
00:16:22.080 --> 00:16:26.399
You know, as a consumer of magic, I'm a huge collector and fan of magic.
00:16:26.559 --> 00:16:29.519
Just like anyone else's, I absolutely love magic.
00:16:29.600 --> 00:16:31.519
I always have my entire life.
00:16:31.840 --> 00:16:34.559
So I 100% understand.
00:16:34.799 --> 00:16:47.759
One thing that I've learned is as I've gone through my career, if you can get an effect that works on stage and close up, then should you ever make that leap to stage, you've already got it there.
00:16:47.840 --> 00:16:54.399
You've already got the fundamentals and a way that you can start putting that stage performance together.
00:16:54.639 --> 00:16:58.879
Um, I think that magic is very, very subjective.
00:16:59.200 --> 00:17:04.880
And a lot of time we forget that something that one person really likes, someone else might not.
00:17:05.039 --> 00:17:07.279
And that could be for a very different thing.
00:17:07.440 --> 00:17:11.759
Maybe the method is just something that you wouldn't feel comfortable doing.
00:17:12.000 --> 00:17:18.319
Maybe the prop doesn't fit your style, maybe it's angle sensitive, it could be any host of things.
00:17:18.559 --> 00:17:26.559
And sometimes online you read someone say, you know, this is a bad effect, but it's not necessarily a bad effect for everyone.
00:17:26.799 --> 00:17:42.880
I think that if an effect fundamentally does not work, and you know, maybe it's a gizmo that just fundamentally doesn't function the way that it should, then 100% that's terrible, and that comes down to, you know, the manufacture of it.
00:17:43.039 --> 00:17:51.680
But if an effect works and is workable, then it may not be for you, but it may well be for someone else.
00:17:51.839 --> 00:17:57.599
And I think that's something that even as a dealer or working for a dealer, you tend to think about a lot.
00:17:57.839 --> 00:18:12.240
We have to think about the community as a large, and you have to think, well, you know, maybe that trick's not for me, but I know that there's a market out there of people that are gonna get a lot of enjoyment out of this, and you know, it's gonna get them bookings and it's gonna get gigs.
00:18:12.559 --> 00:18:16.880
So, you know, on this podcast, we do love Devil's Advocate.
00:18:16.960 --> 00:18:19.279
Hopefully, I've put a nice balanced view there.
00:18:19.359 --> 00:18:25.359
I've tried to be in the middle of this one, but I agree, you know, there is so much magic being put out.
00:18:25.519 --> 00:18:27.279
We have to honour Tom's banishment.
00:18:27.440 --> 00:18:30.720
So those are in the ditch, those are gone forever from your island.
00:18:30.799 --> 00:18:34.640
Let's go to your book, The Magic Rainbow by Juan Tamaris.
00:18:35.039 --> 00:18:38.240
This is a book you can continuously go back to for additional learning.
00:18:38.400 --> 00:18:43.440
Until you have experience and aspects of performing magic, Juan's words don't necessarily stick.
00:18:43.599 --> 00:18:46.640
But once you have some experience, the light bulb goes on.
00:18:46.880 --> 00:18:49.440
I reference this book all the time.
00:18:49.759 --> 00:18:53.279
Juan Tamarese is just an absolute live and legend, isn't he?
00:18:53.519 --> 00:19:02.480
I watch everything he does and I just think the thought, the execution, everything that goes behind what he does is brilliant.
00:19:02.799 --> 00:19:13.920
And the fact that so many people follow his ideas and his philosophies really goes a long way to show, you know, just how good he really is.
00:19:14.000 --> 00:19:16.559
And I think the magic rainbow is a great choice.
00:19:16.720 --> 00:19:18.799
Let's go to your non-magic item.
00:19:19.119 --> 00:19:24.319
As already mentioned, performing gypsy thread using dental floss is my all-time favourite effect.
00:19:24.480 --> 00:19:28.079
So I take a large supply of dental floss to the island.
00:19:28.319 --> 00:19:28.799
Great.
00:19:29.039 --> 00:19:34.079
So you're gonna have lovely teeth on your island, and you're also gonna have gypsy thread.
00:19:34.160 --> 00:19:36.799
I think that's a great one to close out your list.
00:19:36.960 --> 00:19:40.000
Thank you so much, Tom, for sending in your list.
00:19:40.160 --> 00:19:42.079
And of course, we want to do more of these.
00:19:42.240 --> 00:19:45.200
We really do love hearing everyone's list.
00:19:45.359 --> 00:19:48.640
This podcast is supposed to be for the community, for everyone.
00:19:48.799 --> 00:19:51.039
So please, please send in your list.
00:19:51.200 --> 00:19:53.359
Send it to sales at alakazam.co.uk.
00:19:53.599 --> 00:20:00.640
Of course, like I said at the head of the podcast, put in there my desert island list, that way it comes through to me, and I can get one of these recorded to you.
00:20:00.799 --> 00:20:03.839
We're gonna be back next week with another guest.
00:20:04.160 --> 00:20:06.400
So until then, have a great week.
00:20:06.559 --> 00:20:07.680
Goodbye.
00:20:10.880 --> 00:20:19.599

Want a custom back deck to give your magic a more professional feel?

We can do all of that, and unlike most printers, there's no minimum order.
