807: Kerry Pollock - Wireless Wizard

Kerry Pollock came into magic and comedy in a very interesting way. With a background in engineering, he developed a professional act as he created so many products that are now used by top professionals. He is the “go to guy” when magicians need something different and all original. He is also the creator of the game show “Bonk.” Kerry now owns and manages his own comedy club called “Comedy Magic Cabaret” in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

Wow, is this week’s episode full! Kerry tells stories from his years of working at Houston’s Magic Island in the 1980’s when he created “Kate & Edith” to creating magical effects for Warren & Annabelle’s in Lahaina, Hawaii, to other electronic creations made for private homes (like Giovanni Livera and Bruce Averbook as well as magic celebrities like Mac King) to what he’s doing in his comedy club in Hilton Head, South Carolina.

806: Charles Bach - A Classy and Classic Performer

A direct descendant of the classic composer, Johann Sebastian Bach, Charles Bach is himself a creative musician, magician, dancer and choreographer. He danced in New York City then moved to Las Vegas where he performed at the former Caesars Magic Empire, then aboard cruise ships, before landing in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina where he performs in his own theatre, the Charles Bach Wonders Theatre.

Charles talks about his long and winding road that has led him to Myrtle Beach, SC, where he performs nightly in his own theater. He was also friends with the late Chappy Brazil, who was a well known and respected magician and master of the watch steal. Among many other things discussed in this episode, Charles recounts in some detail the night of Chappy’s untimely death.
