Eric Mead Jazz on Penn and Teller Fool Us

We had a great time putting this together. A perfect example of how even the humble card trick can gain impact and meaning when framed by a relatable concept. Isn't Shoji great? My part here is not flawless, I'm afraid, but imperfections are in the nature of working spontaneously, and part of what make it beautiful and human. I hope you enjoy it!

You know, now I'm just sad there's not a bunch more videos on your channel. Your last time on Fool Us is still on the short list of favorites for me and I want more lol

[@slodude66]

I have lost count as to how many times I watched that episode.

[@DaddyFabioTV]

Super entertaining! And if Shoji is the future of magic I'm super happy with it.

[@Blondie42]

Shoji is incredible for a young one. And his handling of cards larger than his hands is also amazing.

[@EbnuSuryadhi]

That boy Shoji is so fantastic ❤

[@stephenbarrette610]

Absolutely brilliant, I could use a word that may not be allowed on KZbin, but WTF - the slight of hand and card control is mind blowing, that absolutely extraordinary young man and you Eric are just just fantastic.

[@joshcryer]

Shoji wasn't confident about pulling random cards so that tells you this is legitimately a trick of skill, finding the cards in the pack type trick. Truly impressive!

Eric Meads is a top 10 all-time Fuller

[@HenkJanBakker]

Jazz magic. Yeah. You always make it look so easy and casual. The miracle is lightning in a bottle. So beautiful. Thanks.

[@viopsadmin]

Both magicians so cool and easy going with improv magic tricks. Nicely done.

[@sammymoynihan6293]

Not many people realise this, but Shoji is actually 60 years old!

Shoji was Fantastic! Eric also, as always :)

[@wallyohrel9086]

I m going try this tonight. Now what are you supposed to do.🤯🤷‍♂️😭😢

[@marlowepi7788]

coltrane changes... non understood. takes giant steps to get jazz.

[@MikeGervasi]

That kid is gonna be dangerous. His moves are already excellent. And Eric..he's just off the planet skill level.

[@geraldspencer8679]

I recognized one of Shoji's tricks. When he found the queen of diamonds between the two jokers, I remembered that trick from a previous episode of Fool Us. That being said, I still don't know how that trick is done. Excellent job!

[@electrichellion5946]

It’s amazing how many adults raised speaking English only as their native tongue have yet to master it. (self included)

[@FlatEarthMath]

Mr. Mead! I really enjoyed your book. Nice performance with the ensemble here. I love your style. :-)

[@sniffableandirresistble]

Eric is God ❤

[@prahladsaldanha568]

So that's what jazzing is supposed to look like! Excellent! (And I don't know what imperfections you're talking about)

[@cwwaters]

Love it, thank you Eric. Watching you watch one another do ridiculously cool stuff with pure joy was just wonderful

[@thejubbinator1065]

Penner playing walking bass while doing a monologue is real magic.
