Magicians Only - with Steve Valentine

Magicians Only - with Steve Valentine

Magicians Only: Welcome to the M.O.! Are you a magician? Should you be listening to this..? Welcome to your secret backstage pass into the wild, weird, and wonderful world of Hollywood and magic, where we pull back the curtain and trigger the trapdoor on the magicians craft, the secrets, the drama, and the insanity of showbiz. Hosted by none other than Steve Valentine, showbiz veteran, TV star (Crossing Jordan, Teen Beach, Estate of Panic, I’m In The Band), and world-traveling, multi-award-winning magician. Steve dishes jaw-dropping stories from his TV, film, magical (and often ridiculous) life, breaks down magic products, interviews legendary magicians (and sworn enemies), actor pals (and sworn enemies), celebrates the past masters and occasionally roasts the world of magic—because someone has to. Part memoir, part industry exposé, and part comedic therapy session. Yet what makes Magicians Only truly stand out is its unfiltered exploration of magic’s darker underbelly—the rivalries, the rumors, and the relentless pursuit of perfection. Warning: Magicians Only is not for the weak, sensitive, or humor-impaired. Magicians Only, shattering illusions daily…
