618 banner.jpg

Jeff Hobson is a name that is familiar with magicians and the lay public alike. After many years as the host of “The Illusionists” world tour (the “Trickster”), Jeff has made countless fans around the globe. But before that he was the “Host of Las Vegas” where he had his own show plus worked as the host for many variety shows. Besides being comedy magician and emcee, for a short time Jeff also pioneered the online lecture service out of Las Vegas. Of late, Jeff is the owner/operator of “Marvyn’s Magic Theater” in La Quinta, California.

This week, Jeff Hobson talks about his long career that has taken him from his roots in Michigan to Las Vegas to Atlantic City then around the world. He performed with Mark Kalin and Jinger in “Carnival of Wonders” then took off with “The Illusionists” as the emcee of that show. Jeff talks about all of that plus how he has “settled down” (at least for a while) with his “Marvyn’s Magic Theater” in California.
