614: Rob Lake - A Pool of Knowledge

Great things come from the Midwest. Sometimes, great BIG things, like stage illusionist, Rob Lake. Following his inspiration of Doug Henning and his mentorship of Kirby VanBurch, Rob has taken his stage illusion show across the country and indeed, around the world having performing in casinos, arenas and theatres in London, Japan, the Bahamas and from coast to coast in the U.S. This week Rob talks about his incredible journey while paying tribute to those who got him to where he is today with a look at where he hopes to go in the future.

This week’s podcast episode on YouTube. Please subscribe to our channel while you are there.

This was the video screen production on America’s Got Talent [sic] that was discussed on the podcast.

In this week’s episode, Rob Lake talks about how he almost “blew off” performing on America’s Got Talent [sic] and a (now funny) anecdote about Joe Exotic (The Tiger King) who used his name and nearly ruined Rob’s reputation. He also discusses his performances abroad and what it takes to transport such a large illusion show across the country.

610 - TC Tahoe - I Heart TC

TC Tahoe is much more than a comedy magician. Currently hailing from the Sunshine State of Florida, TC is also an illustrator and a card reader. Yes, he has skills with playing cards, but I’m talking about Tarot cards. One of the skills he learned at a young, impressionable age was how to read Tarot cards and that has stuck with him all these years. TC has been nominated by the Academy of Magical Arts on multiple occasions for multiple awards but has yet to take home a coveted prize other than “also ran.” Oh well, perhaps some day. He has also worked at both Magic Island locations in California and Texas.

This week’s podcast video on YouTube.

This week TC Tahoe talks about his experience of performing at the Magic Islands in Newport Beach, California, and in Houston, Texas. TC is known to many people for various reasons. To some, he is a comedian. To others, he is an illustrator. Still others, he is a Tarot card reader. In this episode, he discusses all of these “hats” he wears and how he came to be where he is and how he does what he does so well.
