I like lectures which make me ; think question and learn something new. Josh's did all three.
I'm a full time performer and having worked restaurants for over 10 years I ignorantly assume I
know it all. Josh made me think of ways I could build my social media following using super strong
effects. Following the lecture I tried a few of his theories out and was amazed at the results.
One area I know nothing about is gimmick building. I love how the right gimmicks can make
such a visual impact. Watching Josh break this process down allowed me to learn that I too can build
gimmicks.
As for questioning... I questioned the moments of astonishment I'm leaving my
audience with. Are they truly being left with something that makes them question reality. After this
lecture... yes! Watching as they hold a rearranged Bill in their hands completely speechless makes
me realize why I do what I do
Looking for a lecture from a different perspective... buy
this now!

I had the pleasure of attending Josh's lecture live, and it's one of the best I've been to.
I usually consider a lecture to be worthwhile if I can take away one effect that I'm going to
use. I came away from this one intending to use nearly everything. Ripped & Repositioned, Frost and
Geronimo are all worth the price of the lecture on their own.
Josh's material is practical,
commercial, and he's very conscientious about giving credit where it's due.

Probably my least favorite Penguin lecture. Josh's version of Three Fly was my favorite effect
followed by the disappearing card case. Nothing else in the lecture appealed to me in effect or
style. Your mileage may vary.

This is a good lecture for those wanting to do less card tricks.

this download. Well worth the money.

Josh is such a great teacher and talks about great stuff on restaurant work.
If you are looking
to up your game and be a real working Magician. I recommend this lecture.

I watched Josh’s lecture, and there is a huge variety of material and knowledge—I think all
magicians will find something to enjoy. There are two sections: the tricks and the theory. My
favorite tricks were all with bills, specifically a T&R and knife-through-bill. Both had unique,
unexpected methods with fun plots. For several gimmicks, Josh constructs it on camera making it easy
to learn.
The second part of the lecture focused on restaurant magic theory. I’m not a
restaurant performer myself, but I imagine those who are will find a lot of value here. Josh talks
about pocket management, routining, etc. I loved the full performance; Josh shared his complete
restaurant act, and it was exciting to watch. Overall—highly recommended!

This is one of the best lectures I've seen recently. There's a few ideas and routines in here I will
definitely take away and use in my own working set.

This lecture had everything you could want: card tricks, coin tricks, money magic, cell phone magic,
& more. No pipe dreams here this is his real working stuff as he proves it by blowing away the live
audience and the folks at the bar which you will also see in this lecture. I can't recommend this
lecture highly enough, I am only allowed to give 5 stars but it could use a couple more...

For what is worth, I really enjoyed this. I will use 3 or 4 things from this lecture. I know it
doesn't sound to be that much, but in fact, it's huge.
Let put it another way : in how many
lecture are there 3 ou 4 things you will use 'til the end of your life ? Yeah. Not so many. If you
do walk about magic or restaurant work, you surely will find something useful and some insiders from
a pro.
Josh seems to be a nice guy. The teaching is good. Higly recommended.
Just to be clear : I hesitated a long time. To put only one star and try to keep this stuff
hidden. But. This is a five stars, no doubt about it.
Well done and thank you Josh.
