Napier And Estlin
Our live celebration of 1000 weeks of podcasting onstage at Chicago's Annoyance Theater continues this week as Annoyance founder and directors Mick Napier and Jennifer Estlin discuss the evolution of their mentalism and closeup magic double-act. Mick and Jen share their early inspiration; a special appearance from telephone psychic Vanessa Sawyer from the Kenny Kingston Psychic Hotline; shout-out Chicago’s Magic Lounge, where Napier and Estlin have played before; and how the danger of knowing too much or overthinking a thing can sometimes destroy the magic of that thing; a fantastic definition of magic; how the value of most institutions is the generations of artists who’ve contributed to its legacy; and a partial answer to the question “Are magicians born or made?” (Length 26:17)

Hi Megan —
Great question! Here’s the link to episode 449, and you can follow the Older Posts link at the bottom of the page to find previous episodes. There’s supposed to be a link where you can find episodes by YEAR, but I can’t find it! I’ll keep looking! http://www.reducedshakespeare.com/category/podcasts/page/11/

Hi RSC,
I was wondering to see how to download the beginning portion of the RSC podcast on itunes before episode 450. I have episodes 450-500 downloaded on itunes because that’s all that’s showing so far. I know on the RSC website, you have the podcasts you’ve guys done.
Thanks
