Hi Craig, thanks so much for answering my parlour show questions on the last episode it’s exactly what I needed to hear. I had no intention of performing the suit jacket escape unethically and I have now ordered this along with the curtain of death, I think your insight into the show order is genius and I will be implementing aspects of that into the show:-) so thank you so much, I think a lot of people could submit their ideas and have you make suggestions on running orders as your insight is fantastic.
This weeks question …
For over a year now you have teased Ace Sangali project is this still happening and if so when is it likely it’s my favourite gaff deck in the world and would love some new ideas like I got when you done Stebbins.
Thanks for putting this content out for free it has helped me immensely.

Hi Craig, I had a few questions this week:
1. I hear people say/write that magicians/mentalists should make their tricks/routines "meaningful". I am curious, what does "meaningful" mean? Should we aim to have a deeper story to tell in every trick we do? Or is there still room for tricks that are just in a show because they are visual, but there is no deeper underlying meaning/message or connecting theme to the rest of the show?
2. I watched your review of the Timesmith app/SB Watch which was very positive. I don't often see you wearing a watch so I wanted to ask if you still use the SB Watch and Timesmith app in your live performances? If so, do you use it for both stage and close up, or only one of these, and what routines you do with it?
3. Do you still use a pocket card index in any of your performances? I'm currently practicing with mine and would love to see a video of the most impactful tricks you use with an index if that is something you have time/are able to put together.

As always, thanks for everything you do for the community!

Hi Craig, Love the channel. I believe you’ve said before that you don’t drive, I also don’t drive but people always say to me If I want to be successful I will have to learn to drive, I would like to know your thoughts on this, is it possible to have a successful career not being able to drive and how do you cope not driving. Thanks

Hi Craig, great Q+A and thank you for the infos on your upcoming credit card tricks. Are you aware of any magic tricks with ungimmicked/real credit cards?

Hey Craig,

I have a question regarding the quantum deck after watching the magic live with Katie & it is during that you did a routine with 2 decks, my question has nothing to do with the trick but the decks, are we locked into using bycicle rider back decks whilst using the quantum deck in order for it to work or does the style/type of deck not matter one or the other?.

Cheers Craig, love the channel.

Thanks so much for answering my question last episode! I have a question that's been bothering me for quite some time. I don't know if it's just me who's troubled with this since I don't hear a lot of people talking about it, but I'm from Europe and I'd love to do magic with European bills and coins but I've always noticed how British and American coins are usually bigger and supposedly easier to handle than the European coins. Do you have any tips or tricks for handling smaller coins like that?

Hi Craig - who sells the haunted balloon? Thanks!

@archiecox123 2 years ago

Hi Craig, thank you for answering my question about MindBlox, I'll definitely be picking it up. My style is making magic meaningful and/or inspiring so I could present this as Lego taking adults back to their childhood.
A few questions:

1. Where is the best place to buy close up mats from? remember there being a stand at Blackpool but I can't remember what it was called.

2. On Christmas Cards, you mentioned a version of Monsters with regular films. Is that coming soon, if so do you know when?

Thanks as always

Hi Craig! Any chance we could get either a review from yourself or Matt on Rex Ignis 2.0. Saw Matt’s bear Pitt performance and thought it was a fantastic presentation of the effect. Thanks :)

Hi Craig, long time no speak. The problem was Clare decided to buy a pet Moomin. Let me just say this, it has been a nightmare ever since we got it. It's got to a point where I have had enough of the bloody thing. So I have decided to eat it, I am limited on my culinary skills so I was wondering if you could advise me on how to cook Moomin meat? I was thinking sandwiches or with chips but any ideas are good.
