Dean, expertly researched. I have been a Houdini fan since I saw the Tony Curtis movie in the mid-60s. The movie may be embellished but it did start my interest into the field of magic and magicians. This podcast is the best that you have ever done, and you have done many good ones. You have put so much time into this that I consider you a true scholar of History and magicians. Thank you so much for doing this I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed it. I also agree with your comment at the end.
Ted Annemann is a fascinating character that I would have never known about if it were not for The Magic Detective. Thank you Dean
Wonderful! I finally caught up on your latest. I appreciated your comments on suicide- I knew Darryl and a couple other friends who went that route. Always sad and shocking 😒 so nice to make it through a pandemic with you brother!
Loved the outro to this episode!
The elephant onion story- what a show stopper!
I have a Kassner poster- always wondered about him!
2021- now half way done! Light is around the corner...
An author I never heard of- many thanks!
Another great episode Dean!
I am also saddened by his story
The inventor of the mummy case! That can go into my routine- so cool to know who invented the illusions I own 😃
Looking forward to the follow up! That is a fascinating friendship
Another magician/ artist! They are the best 😄
Great insights... we all need a break!
Minerva’s grave is less than a mile from my house. Let me know if you’d like me to find it and take a picture for your collection 😎
Wonderful you shared his tv links... fascinating to realize he was 77. I watched again with a new perspective 😆
Great teaser for the documentary! I was lucky enough to see it in the theater 🎩
