I am a university student in the UK and so am notoriously short on money. I have admired joshua jay for a while now but the effects on the penguin were always a little out of my price bracket. Prism, hancock, and cornered are all covered in this lecture as well as a spectacular oil and water routine that kills when I perform it. The tricks are numerous and his insight is second to none, the man is inspirational and his presentation style is so chilled and relaxed that I literally had to have a beer while I learned. The difficulty is medium with a reserved standard deviation (some really easy tricks and some more challenging ones) all however absolutely kill when i perform them.

Just buy it honestly, it so worth the money I can't even tell you, he is absolutely cracking and his magic is original and hard hitting

This was my first penguin live lecture and it was just awesome! I mean it goes to say a lot that I was inspired enough to actually put the effort to write a review about it.

Josh seems like a really genuine and helpful guy, and he shared so much wisdom and great tips from his real world experience. This lecture is totally worth it, going 3 hrs and even sharing some effects he sells individually!

I really enjoyed watching this, not just the learning part but the performance too, I was repeatedly blown away! The guy's a genius. I will definitely be watching this one many times over.

This is definitely one of the better penguin live lectures. The tricks include cornered but he teaches you how to restore the little piece as well and gives a few other tips. He also teaches Hitchcock four pieces are shown and four cards are selected then the cards turn face up in the deck with their corners missing and the pieces from the very beginning match. He also has a nice oil and water, a triumph, his prism deck, any card at any book number, a nice vanish of 3 coins, a nice mentalism classic done with cards a few nice four ace productions.

He also has a few stories and Q&A. Joshua also seemed like an EXTREMELY nice guy. Overall if you want a lot card trick, hear a few interesting stories, and the genius of Joshua Jay I Can't recommend this lecture any higher

The tricks are all fantastic and pratical. Joshua Jay teaches hard hitting magic that you will perform. Every magician should own that lecture, especially card magicians.

Joshua Jay is one of the most down to earth and absolutely amazing magicians on the face of this planet. His material is untouchable and original. As we'll as the audience asks questions he doesn't hesitate to answer and help his fellow magician. This guy is going places, in the next 5 years he will be one of the worlds best magicians. I call him the KING of magic.

I have watched over 25 lectures from Penquin and have attended many more including Pavel, Daryl, etc.... which were great, However this guy is just a step above the crowd. Please have him back, as I would pay any amount to see him lecture or even see his show. If anyone out there knows where he performs nightly, or where he is going to be in the next few months, I would love to watch his show. As a magician I have never wanted to see another magicians show as, I already knew most the material. However with Joshua, the originality is unreal, and he does a great job at blowing magicians minds. A true magical genius and such a down to earth guy it's hard to believe. A MUST SEE

Lasting over three hours, this lecture has a fantastic mix of tricks, sleights and conversation. The vibe is relaxed and intimate, and there's much talk here about presentation and creating effects. The opening "Hitchcock" card trick is a stunner, not too difficult, and one that few people will have seen. This was my first Penguin lecture and I really appreciated the format and the length. Will definitely be checking out others, but for those who missed, this download is recommended.

A very well done lecture. Not only is this packed full of very original information, but the manner in with which it is presented, is second to none.
Since starting at age eight, printing his first book at age 16, Joshua Jay has been killing it. Take the opportunity to learn from one of the best.

Letskeepitshort, its really a lecture fullypacket with many extra odinary effects. Usually I get like one or two effects out of a lecture that I regularly will use, here i got like four or five effects that are going straight into my arsenal, close-up as well as stage.

Joshua Jay’s material is fooling and practical for magicians with intermediate skills (and some for beginners).

If you want to hear from who in my mind is one of the best magicians in the world and learn some of his secrets then BUY THIS! He doesn't just give away great tricks, but he also gives great advice that shouldn't be ignored! Because it is being ignored far too much and it drives me crazy. So buy it, watch it and learn from it.
