While at the 46th annual 4F convention, I watched Kieron Johnson perform in the British Gala. His style was...well, different. I thought he might have an interesting story. As it happened, one of the Friends of The Magic Word (thanks, Michael Trixx) contacted me to ask if I would chat with Kieron. Michael was impressed with Kieron's Penguin lecture and thought it might make for an interesting interview I did, and that led to this longer interview. He impressed the magicians at the 4F with his "steaming cup of tea" production and "signed card in block of ice" effects, so I thought he was certainly worth a closer look. But as the chat evolved, we got into his strange and unusual ability: regurgitation.
All I can say is that this interview may be a hard podcast to swallow...pun intended. For you see, Kieron is not only a magician, but also a regurgitator. You are forewarned! this could get a little too weird for some listeners. But if you are a fan of Ricky Jay's book, "Learned Pigs and Fireproof Women", then this might be for you.
From the creator of the smash hit effects "Iceolation" and "To the Max", Kieron Johnson presents his outstanding routine in which the magicians seemingly controls the temperature in a sealed can of Coke. Check out the Magic Store on The Magic Word Podcast to view more information and to order.
WARNING: This video may be too disgusting for some viewers. It contains regurgitation. This was recorded during a podcast interview with Kieron Johnson who is a professional magician and regurgitator and water spouter.
