843: Cody Clark - On the Spectrum

April was National Autism Acceptance Month, and although we missed posting this week’s episode during that time, it is no less important nor relevant the rest of the year. This week we chat with Cody Clark show is “on the spectrum” of autism. He is currently 31 years old and lives in the Louisville, Kentucky, area, but travels throughout the Midwest with his motivational magic show. He is an adept and successful performer of stage, stand-up and close-up who has carved a unique niche market for showing his skill and sharing his story.

Cody is proud of his hometown and thankful for his mentors who inspired him like Lance Burton, Mac King, Bob Escher, David Garrard, and others in the Louisville area. Mute until he was three years of age, he saw and helped a magician on stage which inspired him to follow magic as a career path. He structured his college degree to aid in his career with studies in theater, business, and debate. He now performs in hospitals to board rooms entertaining and inspiring others with his magic and his personal story.

602 - Scott Robinson - TRICS-ter

602 banner revised.jpg

One of the “underground” guys who may be so far underground, that many of you may not know this gentleman nor the extent of his expertise. Mild mannered Microsoft business executive by day, Scott Robinson is a powerhouse of a prestidigitator and the organizer of the annual TRICS convention (an intimate conclave of conjurors) in Charlotte, North Carolina. He also is the dictator or “Scott-tator” of his “Sleight Club” where like minded creative magicians in his area congregate to share what they are working on and get advice on how to develop the trick and routine.

This week Scott Robinson talks about his Carolina Close-up Convention, TRICS, as well as his Sleight Club. In particular, he gives some great ideas on how others can replicate the success of Sleight Club in their own areas. Scott and his wife adopted an autistic son who he talks about in this episode, too.
