Yes, welcome. Welcome to Matt and Shane's secret podcast. Very, very
mentalist. The mentalist. It's going down. Who's the mentalist? Who knows what, dude?
I thought it was Oz for sure. It's Oz. It's like somebody owes you money, man.
Who's Oz? Who's Oz? Who's Oz? It's what my high school gym teacher called. Who's Oz? Whatever the hell
your name is, get in the pool. That was my experience as a ninth grader.
Oz the mentalist. I know, right? Weird name. Yeah.
The stage name. Everyone thinks I made this name up. I'm like, dude, I would not have made this name up.
Oz is your name? Yeah. Where are you from?
One of my best stories ever is the fact that I was buying weed off this guy in high school.
And he had my name down. And when he called me, he's like, you want an ounce?
I'm like, no, man, I just want an eighth. And he's like, well, it says OZ right here.
And he's like, your name is ounce. I'm like, no, dude.
On my bachelor party, literally my shirts say ounce. That name stuck for years.
It's pretty cool. That's pretty nice.
When I was a kid, I was like, every cereal box says my name.
That's where I got so confident.
To ounce the mentalist. Yeah.
That's a good transition.
The mayor's got royalties on that. The mayor's chiming in a little.
Where are you from originally?
I was born in Israel, hence the unusual name. It's Israeli.
And then I moved to the States when I was three and then I moved all over the place.
But I mostly grew up in Michigan, went to Michigan.
Yeah, I saw the. Yeah, she's like,
first game I ever went to big house.
We beat Notre Dame. No offense. What year?
Was it a night game?
99. Oh, 99.
99, bro. Big house.
It's set the record for the most attendance at a football game ever.
I'm sure it's been broken.
I was at the big house when they broke it. Oh, really? Later.
Yeah. Yeah. It was the first night.
Or second night game night game.
And then they broke it again. This is just good banter.
I forget my card.
I can't remember.
Tennessee, Virginia Tech, Bristol Motor Speedway.
Matt had one job.
Think of a fucking card.
It's impossible.
I've been repeating the number.
Yeah, yeah. I think I have it.
I think I have it. You'll live. You'll live.
I yeah. But yeah, I was watching.
I'd watched your clip so many times.
I loved it. The Seahawks, the Buccaneers ones.
And then you know how this whole thing went down?
I met the seller.
I get front table.
Yeah. Corner.
I see Shane crush it.
It was a fun night.
I was like a boy's night.
I haven't seen my buddies in forever.
These college guys all went to Michigan with me.
We get hammered.
I'm like, you have got a bunch of kids.
And I'm like going out pretty strong that night.
Hurt the next morning.
And I take shade and also mentalists.
They're not yet. It's not genetic.
642. We'll see.
Yaga, my daughter could read my mind.
She gets whatever she wants, man.
But I just rate to Shane because this set was like he just
I felt bad because I don't know if I want to say this stuff here.
Like Ryan Hamilton.
I've seen him do his set before with the hitting the bus thing.
And he crushed with it.
And you know, it's so hard.
They took the wind out of the room and he comes up there and bombs
because you just get like my chest was hurting.
My chest was hurting.
And I was like, I was telling my buddies.
I'm like, these guys are normally not about you, but him.
Like this is so funny, but getting hit by the bus.
But nobody can even recover.
And I'm like a comic groupie, man.
I you know how rock stars want to be movie stars.
Movies stars want to be rock stars.
I wish I was a comedian.
Mentalists want to be comics.
Not all of them.
I'm a comedian who wants to be a mentalist.
I wish I was a fucking mentalist.
I know.
But well, thank you very much.
And yeah, Ryan Hamilton getting hit by a bus is one of the.
Dude, it's amazing.
So fucking funny.
No, I've been there before.
I went through with my wife.
We were dying.
We were in stitches.
So it's a, you know, a tribute to you, the fact that you bombed after you.
Howdy, Bob.
But I'll never forget I've been at the cellar.
I used to live in the village and I used to sell her once a week.
And this is when there was no cover charge.
I'm like showing my age here.
I'm 40, but you'd, we'd go to the cellar once or twice a week every week.
And I one time saw Mike Vecchio and go up right after.
Dude's going to kill me.
I can't remember this right.
But it was either Chris Rock or Jerry Seinfeld.
There was a drop in and Vecchio crushed it so hard.
They forgot that Chris Rock was on before him.
And I was wasted again, running theme at the cellar to drink minimum and then keep going.
I go into the bathroom and that's the tightest bathroom maybe in the world.
Literally like I could hold your dick like from right here.
It's very well.
Shocked.
I don't think you could get it from with your arms, your arm length on my body.
You might not be able to get it.
It's just in my mind, dude.
I start talking to Mike Vecchio and it's the most uncomfortable thing ever.
I'm sure for him, because some drunk assholes next to him, like chatting,
telling him how great he was.
Well, both are extra.
I was like, please stop talking.
I'm like, dude, you killed it.
You're like, let's not talk right now.
We're both peeing, but I'll never forget.
Vecchio is unbelievable.
Dude, that does help though.
When somebody like that big and famous goes before you, except that it was
a whole room while peeing, yes, that was it off Santa kindness.
Yeah, but that helps sometimes.
When somebody like Chris Rock goes before you, the whole room's happy.
Right. When you go on, they're like, oh, this is.
We have no expectation right now.
What was that you were trying to I was going to say, when you guys are
paying, were you thinking where you're like, oh, you I think you're thinking
that you're uncomfortable.
I was I didn't take a mind reader for that.
It's going to be tough to read his mind.
Fucking idiot.
I'm sorry, you're right.
You're the butter. No, no, the butter.
I like how Matt's so uncomfortable.
I told him when I walked in, I'm like, dude, think of a card.
He's like, I don't even know what it is anymore.
I know it. I know it.
I got it. It's got one job.
It's in my head. I'm can you pick a card in the deck in your brain?
It's in my head. I got it. It's right there.
Yeah, man. So this is how I wrote to Shane.
I DM them. I just dropped into the DMs just to like show some love.
And he's like, dude, you got to come on the podcast and like, let's do it.
I'm a fan. I can't believe you're a fan.
When he wrote me back, I'm like, what?
You know about mentalism? Yeah.
No, I mean, I saw the Seattle, the Seahawks video is incredible.
Oh, man, that was dude, it's you know, when you get lucky, like things are luck.
So when that happened, I shot one for the Bucks
and that was actually went the worst because, man, that was like,
I think the week Tom Brady and Giselle were I was reading his mind.
I was like, something's not right at home, bro.
And then and then I went and we did the Ravens, which were awesome.
And Lamar, you know, how it works at these most of these organizations,
the quarterback, when they're the star, they kind of call the shots behind the scenes.
You can't like tell them, get the quarterback on stage.
You know, Brady does what Brady wants.
And Lamar was trying to sneak out because I think he was scared of me.
I thought he thought there was some like dark magic going on.
He got scared.
Yeah, I'm still not convinced you're not the devil.
Yeah. And so Lamar is the scariest thing a black person possibly encountered.
You're a mystical Jew.
It's my tagline, mystical Jew.
So, dude, Lamar, Lamar tried sneaking out of the conference room
and dude, I can see the producers from ESPN be like, God, I get Lamar
because he didn't want to be in.
So like, you've got to win him over.
You know, a lot of these guys, they don't know you're a McFawn of them.
Rick looks silly.
So, dude, right as he's walking, I'm like, no, Lamar, come back.
And I gave him this envelope.
If you haven't seen this one, you've got to see it.
I haven't seen it.
Just Google Baltimore Ravens, the mentalist or O's, which looks like Oz,
but just it'll come up right away.
It's got tons of views.
So anyway, he comes back in and it's this thing where he's holding
a FedEx envelope and he starts picking people on his team to say stuff.
I'm like, imagine you go to Super Bowl this year, which didn't happen.
Sorry. And I'm like, who are you going to play?
And I'm like, Lamar, what's the score going to be?
And tell us who's going to be the halftime act and all this stuff, dude.
I don't want to spoil it, but dude, it was bananas.
And at the end of that clip, I'm talking, you know, seventy five grown men.
All of them like hugging me.
I had a high five down the line.
Like I just won the Super Bowl on the way out.
It was just it was maybe I did see that one.
Is that the one where there's a correction?
Yes, yes, yes, yes.
He says, I don't want to spoil it.
Yes, yes, I did see that.
So that went amazing.
The Bucks was like so so because the energy was weird in the room.
It was like, it wasn't bad.
Don't get me wrong, but like there's a new coach there, Coach Balls.
It was a little more strict.
Tom was sitting front and center.
Tom was front and center.
Did not want to be in the show.
He likes to let everybody else shine, man.
He's like, use all the younger guys.
Was that after he lost like four billion dollars in FBTX or whatever?
No, no, no, no.
I see something terrible going on there.
I'm like, Tom, put a buy a lottery ticket.
And so and so then we go to the Seahawks, man.
We were on a hot streak.
We did these every two days with ESPN and we get to the Seahawks.
Wait, do you want to hear this stuff?
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
And so the way it works is you got to mic people up, right?
It's not set up.
Everyone's like, oh, it's fake.
It's too nothing stage.
I can't I can't bribe Lamar Jackson.
We've got 250 million bucks to pretend to help me out.
You know, he'll be like, screw you.
So we get in there and we're in the morning at the Seahawks
and we're supposed to mic up a couple of guys like DK Metcalf.
They they they try to get some of their stars in because good for the team.
It's good for me.
And dude, we get in there and it's I'm supposed to go on on on a stage
at like nine a.m.
And I talked to Coach Carroll, sweet guy.
I love that guy.
And it's like eight forty five, eight fifty.
We're like, dude, where's the guys we got to mic up?
Because we're in a huge room if they're not mic'd up.
They started blowing up here.
If we're not mic'd up, I can't like we're not going to be able to hear them.
And so I get the first guy to walk in to get mic'd up at like eight fifty three
and just tell them, yo, man, you've got to sit in the front row.
You guys, like, just so we have some positioning for production value.
And I hear this. Oh, oh, I hear people banging like this room is shaking like an earthquake.
Dude, they're calling me to go in and do the show.
And some production assistant runs in like puts the heads up.
I was like, dude, we need you now.
Like, dude, we're not ready at all.
I don't have any of my briefcase.
Dude, I run in there.
I don't know what's going on.
I'm not ready at all.
Like it's nothing's going the way it's supposed to.
And it turned out to be the best one, which is kind of one of those things.
You know, you have like probably a set for you where it's total shit show.
You think it's going to be terrible and somehow that ends up being the best one.
And with DK, I hacked his phone and his phone code is all that.
I see. Nice.
Which is why the clip went viral.
Because everyone's like, dude, guy uses his own number twice.
And then when I did it, everyone's like, oh, it's fixed.
It's set up. He grabs my phone.
He's like, give my damn phone back.
Like, you knew he was clearing his browser history.
And it was just, dude, the comments, if you read that, the funniest one,
I think had like 20,000 20,000 clicks was like, dude,
this guy's going to be a millionaire helping every ex-girlfriend right now.
Like, like get that pin code.
Don't why don't you do a pin code stop with the pin code?
Bob, these guys look at that poor.
You're killing everyone.
Yes, it's good.
That's amazing.
How is every mentalist should you tell me Nate's pin code?
I'm working on that.
I'm going to go deep on Nate.
We're going to do a deep dive.
Oh, no, I knew it.
As soon as I saw you from Israel.
Yeah, you guys aren't allowed to be racist anymore.
I'm trying to get probably got like to the end of this year.
We decided this year you guys are not going to be racist.
I'm going to be late.
I'm going to be a little late.
Your resolution is done.
Yeah, you'll prove you're the Jews or knock it off, knock it off.
Well, you guys got to prove it.
You guys can't just stand outside and scream that you're Jewish.
That's all you guys have done so far.
What if the two would have real Jewish people done to prove the Jewish?
They went through hell of that.
I know.
Very fair, sir.
You guys, but it's a made up tomorrow.
Oh, yeah, true.
Forgot about your plight as well.
Anyway, look, we can start your stuff.
Let's get down to some magic.
Bring it down, Shane.
And then your servitude was no joke.
It's getting a slavery in the Holocaust next.
That's right.
Comedy here.
I mean, there was potato famine, but it was a rough famine that we went through.
But you don't hear us claiming.
You know, that's a Catholic.
Like a little plight change our faith.
All right, anyway, anyway, anyway, so what do we do?
Yeah, I don't you got any more questions or am I just going to?
When did you start?
When did you start this?
I started doing this when I was a teenager, but I started doing magic tricks.
So if you think about it, right, like you got to start with comedy.
I don't know. It's different.
I guess it's kind of different because you could either be naturally funny.
You got to you got to be pretty terrible for a few years before you start getting good.
And so with mentalism, it's exactly the same thing, because it's the only other
craft that you can't practice alone.
Only that's why stand up comedy.
They're the two most pure because pursuits.
Because magician Sam Maril, by the way, you guys, buddies, I'm a huge fan.
Sam and shout out to Gary Veter.
If he hears this, because Gary's my boy.
We did America's Got Talent together.
We both made the finals.
We've been good friends ever since.
Anyway, so Sam had a joke.
He just busted on somebody's Instagram where he's like magician comes up to you.
Like, are you the guy that tells jokes?
He's like, are you the guy who brings your act in a duffel bag?
And which is so true.
So I used to be that guy.
And what mentalism is, is once you get better and better at magic,
like at a certain point, like a card trick, like Matt, if I told you here,
take a deck of cards, pick one out, take one out, right?
What if I don't even need the cards anymore?
And I could just be like, what card would he just pick in his head?
And so you start getting rid of props.
So now I'm going to do a show and I don't need anything.
I could show up fly somewhere and do a show for 5,000 people with nothing
because the show, right?
It's kind of like you.
The only thing I might need is maybe a marker and something to write for visuals.
But I don't need I don't need props.
Well, that's kind of nothing.
I show up here with nothing.
I don't understand.
So I started as I was 13.
How did you make the transition from the tricks to the mentalism?
So I did this.
I did this all throughout high school and college, kind of a pay for college.
This was like my side hustle because my folks moved back to Israel.
They got divorced and I was like, someone's got to pay for college.
It's me. Yeah.
So I was doing magic on the side, which actually made it a lot less fun
when you got to suddenly do stuff because you've got to get paid.
And you're 17. It's not as fun.
So you're like a stripper, but with magic.
Yeah. During during COVID, I was literally like a webcam girl with magic.
Go stay on.
Fortunately, nobody wants to pay for this.
So you paid your way through doing the tricks.
Yep. And then I worked on Wall Street.
That was like my whole shtick when I was on America's Got Talent is like
this guy quit Wall Street to be a mentalist.
And that's why I became kind of like the Wall Street mentalist.
And I do I do primarily corporate events.
You ran some marathons, too, right?
Yeah, I run marathons, ultra marathons.
Your research, you're not the only.
Last year, I got most press in my life was for running, not even doing this.
I ran around Central Park more times in a day than anyone ever has in history.
And 116 miles and 18 hours.
And I got a two page full spread and a cover on the New York Times.
Thing went viral.
Yeah, it was nice.
And I raised a bunch of money for Ukraine at the time.
So it was nice. Nice.
116 grand, 116 miles.
That's nice.
This field of win-win.
Yeah. Yeah, man.
That's awesome. And then, of course, the main reason was to get girls
when I was a teenager. Is there any other reason?
I was going to ask you, can you use mentalism to be a better love maker?
Oof, that's kind of like my wife, which I'll probably give a hard no on that.
You kind of hear all the stuff they wish you were doing.
Yeah, like she's wishing this was longer than two minutes right now.
Really, I usually get less.
Yeah, I wish this was quicker.
It's a strong, it's a strong two minutes.
Yeah, I wish this was one minute.
Yeah, two.
What would be nice if you hit that actual spot inside of me?
Should I get in there?
I'm trying so hard to reach it.
I want to dislocate my hips.
That's like my favorite meme is the one with the basketball and the two balls.
Are you familiar with that one? No, no.
You've never seen this one? No.
There's two balls that are stuck at the top of the hoop.
Oh, I understand it now.
And the two balls, then she goes when she says goes deeper.
But you're already balls deep.
I'm assuming this is not a PG 13 podcast.
Right? No, we're going to town here.
Yes, we are. We're allowed to say whatever we want, literally.
You know, how about this?
How about this?
Let's start. Let's start easy.
You've been struggling with this.
I walked in here and and I said to you,
imagine where we we'd like a deck of cards around.
We want to use a deck of cards.
I told you picture as if we don't know if it's a full deck.
God knows if I'm playing with the full deck.
And I told you to take and you imagine you put one card in your pocket.
There's not really a card in your pocket, right?
There's more of like a pantomime,
but you have like an invisible card in your pocket right now in your mind, right?
You don't actually have anything in your pocket. For sure.
Right? I don't know.
It's about to reach into his underwear.
It's about to get weird.
Wait, Shane, Shane, here's what I do.
Here's what I do. Shane, is there a way?
I don't know if I can do this. I can't hold the mic for this.
Yeah. Can you hold the mic?
And will you hold Matt's mic for a second?
Of course, my pocket.
You ready? And do this.
Here's what I do. I want to get something to write on.
Stay right there.
I'm going to get a pad of paper.
Hold tight. Hold tight.
No cards. No, no cards.
Nothing. Let me see if I got something to write on.
All right.
You get a bad feeling about this.
Matt, do me a favor.
Do me a favor. Hold out.
Hold out your hands.
Wedding ring.
These guys, they look clean.
Turn them over. Flip them over.
They smell weirdly like lemon verbena.
What kind of moisture is this?
You can turn your hands back down and do this and do this separate.
Give yourself a little room and here's where this gets interesting.
Shane, if you were to, do you know a card he's thinking of?
Do you have any idea?
No.
Okay. Watch this. Here's what I'm going to do.
I'm going to write down red.
You know what? Marker's dead.
I'll get another marker. Hold on.
Do this. Close your hands tight. Like a fist.
Close your hand tight.
No, don't worry about it. I'll get one.
Point to either one of his hands.
You decide. That one, I want you to open it up
and I want you to imagine you reach into your pocket right now.
Imagine you're reaching your pocket, bro.
Do it for real?
Please. Please.
Imagine you're reaching your pocket
and you take out that card and it's invisible.
Right? It's not real.
And I'm going to hold it up right here with this so we can see.
And now look at the card and look at me and just think of it.
Now watch his face. You ready for this?
I was going to show indicators.
Red or black. Watch me think red or black.
Red or black.
Hearts, diamonds, clubs, spades.
Eyes flinched over.
Didn't blink, but you saw him.
The cards are red. Am I right?
And then I said hearts, diamonds, clubs, spades.
And I was watching you and you got tense.
It's a diamond, isn't it?
And here we go.
You ready for the craziest part?
Ace, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
Jack, Queen, King.
Ace, two, three, four, five, six, nine, ten.
Jack, Queen, King.
I'm going to take that card out of your hands.
Invisible. You could have.
You could have done any card in your pocket.
Get rid of that hand.
No, no, this one, hold tight.
This one, hold tight.
And you know what's crazy is I'm looking at the card.
I'm looking at you and I saw the flinch.
I turn it around.
I think it's a six of diamonds, isn't it?
What if I could take that invisible card
and make it appear inside your hand right now?
Because you could have thought of any card, right?
What if I could drop that card right there in your hand?
Do you feel a card in your hand right now?
No. No.
Told you it was invisible, but look, it just appeared.
Open your hand, look inside.
Look inside, look what it says.
Oh, shit, whoa.
What the hell?
It just went from six to midnight for the rest of you.
You saw that.
I thought I stonewalled you, dude.
And in the end, I'm like, no way.
He's getting the number of the card.
Shane.
How long you known Matt?
10 years ago.
Yeah, around there.
You got brother's sisters?
Yeah.
What do you got?
Sorry, I'm just fucked up.
You're mine for a fee.
Yo, how about this?
How about this?
No.
Yo.
You fucked me.
This person's guy fucked me, dude.
You thought I had a card.
Shane, the clip you saw me DK MattGaff item.
He got his phone and I said, you know what you've done, DK?
He's a wide receiver.
He has probably caught a ball probably several hundred times
a day since he was six years old.
You multiply that out.
That's probably millions of catches.
That's muscle, Mary, man.
That's like tiger hitting the club.
I bet you see the phone.
Hold out your finger.
Hold out your finger.
You lefty?
Yeah.
OK, yeah.
Mind reader.
Matt is like, how do you know?
Your phone.
Is this your phone or Matt?
It's your phone.
Is that you've probably done your phone thousands
and thousands of times.
And also, if you remember the story,
I saw you at the cellar.
And so I would think maybe, what if I could have seen you
somehow type your phone code in, right?
That's what people said on there.
You must have seen DK.
I never met him before in my life.
But I bet you this.
Would Matt know your ATM pin code?
No.
That'd be a little weird if you did.
That's a little more than a bromance, right?
That's crossing a line.
He's the kingdom.
Is there anybody you can think of that might know that
information about you?
No.
OK, hold out your finger.
And here's what I want you to do.
Imagine that the code is 1, 2, 3, or the pinpad is 1, 2, 3,
4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0.
That's what's at the bank.
And I want you in your mind to imagine that you type
the first number.
Don't you write my fucking pin.
Imagine you type in the first number.
Imagine you do it right now, OK?
Go, show me some acting, dammit.
Come on.
You want me to show you where I would type it in?
Well, dude, it's invisible.
There's no real pad.
Are you guys getting this?
If I go like this, do you know what number I just hit?
No.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0, 6, 6, for sure.
Yeah, yeah, all right.
Type type in the number.
OK, OK.
Yo, yo, your butt hole is just puckered like crazy.
Dude, I don't know if you got the gift.
The first number's a 6, isn't it?
You got so damn nervous when he said that.
Yo, if you know his code for real, you just guess.
Because you got so tense.
No.
That was nuts, man.
I wasn't even trying to reveal yet.
You get an assist on that one.
Yeah, the change is over.
I have to call all the banks.
We might be juice.
Hold up.
Hold up.
Hold up, gang.
I'm going to write down a 6, because that was crazy.
I wasn't even doing a reveal yet.
All right, 6.
All right, you did the 6.
Now in your mind, now, this is right off the bat.
6 is an unusual one.
I tell you, you're an outlier.
Because most people start with 0-1 because they do a birthday.
Damn it, that's mine.
Yeah.
Now, I bet you, you didn't do your own birthday, did you?
No, no.
I didn't think so.
Because that's a little too vain, even for you.
You know what I'm saying?
So that's like, your number starts with 0, doesn't it?
No.
OK, I didn't read it by yet.
But it's funny, because some people do certain things.
Throwing you off.
Your prize isn't a birthday.
Think of the next number.
Think in your head.
If it's, what do you do, 6, 6, 6, that would be fine.
No.
All right, think if you go higher or lower,
higher, lower, higher, lower.
Do you think you know the next number, Nate?
Dwa-wa-wess.
Yeah.
I told you.
Are you guessing or do you know for real?
I'm guessing.
I'm guessing.
Dude, did he just nail that?
No, honestly, I was just being.
Dwa-wa-wess.
Dwa-wa-wess.
You know what, it's Shane Gillis.
You know what, I'm not that impressed.
Here's what I bet you.
I bet you it's not.
Dwa-wa-wess.
Because then, if you lose his card,
he knows one of his fans is going to get it.
So let's see.
Can you get the next number?
Because I don't know what it is.
420.
I don't want you to say if he's right.
What are you saying?
I say what.
OK, let me look at him.
No, I don't think you're right.
He would have flipped out if you'd gone.
Watch him, watch his face.
Look at me.
Don't say anything.
2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9.
Man, that's lucky you got that.
OK, think of the last number.
Zero.
1, 2, 3.
Look at the tension building.
4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0.
Yo, this is amazing.
There is no frigging way in the world I could know this.
Right?
We met today when I walked in your house for the first time
in our life.
There's no chance.
Now, you've only got lucky on the s***, right?
We agree on that.
Or I have the gift.
Or you have the gift, man.
Hey, yikes.
You guys saw it, right?
I'm going to show the camera, too,
so we don't think I changed it or somehow.
OK?
What is your code?
Say start with the 6.
Start from the beginning.
6?
All right, well.
You can bleep it.
You can bleep it.
Bleep that whole thing.
Because I'm not changing it.
You know how that sounds so lazy.
All right, you know what?
Nate.
Nate.
Here's what Nate did.
Nate, Nate read your mind.
Nate, how about this?
Do you remember the name of your second grade teacher?
I don't.
Let's screw it up.
Forget it.
Yeah, yeah.
Really deep right there.
I think I do.
You know what?
Here's what I do.
You know why you don't remember it?
Obviously, it didn't mean much to you.
Yeah, let's do something deeper.
Let's get let's get let's make this exciting.
Close your eyes.
And I want you to picture the face of the first girl
you ever kissed.
Damn, bitch.
Open your eyes.
How much history you got with everyone in the room right here?
LaMaire, Matt, Shane, a lot of history.
You go way back.
Yeah.
You ever tell him the name of this girl?
No.
OK.
Ever?
No.
All right.
Here's what I do.
I want you to think of the first letter in that name.
Have you ever posted this on your social media?
You ever write this down somewhere
on a piece of paper like this?
Have you ever told anybody anything?
I've just been on Myspace, but I didn't know them.
Myspace?
Myspace, yeah, yeah.
I've definitely been searching Myspace.
Yeah, I've been stalking friends.
There's two while we're at it.
This is just a 2023 throwback.
Think of the first letter.
All right.
Tony, eyes open, closes a man.
Whatever you want to do, whatever you want to do.
I'm closing.
You're trying to block your mouth.
How did I let you into my soul?
Now, you know when you say a vowel, like a name like Oscar
or Andrew, right?
A-E-I-O-U, you have to open your mouth.
You have to open your mouth to say a vowel.
You have to watch me say you.
Try to say you without opening your mouth.
Can't do it.
Can't do it.
And here's what you did.
Here's what you did.
Your mouth stayed close.
The name does not start with a vowel, does it?
No.
No, I didn't think so because you're watching.
You were trying to do something with your lips.
And, man, open your eyes.
This guy's just stealing my phone.
Pick any letter.
Pick any letter in this person's first name.
I'm going to mix up the letters.
And then grab a letter out of the middle.
Just think of that letter.
Just grab one.
You got it?
I got it.
Look at me.
T. Do you think of a T?
Yes.
What the fuck?
Yes.
Nate, you're fucking weak, dude.
Oh, shit.
Hold up, hold up, hold up.
I'm shaking.
You're fucking weak, Nate.
He wrote in your hand.
Yo, bring it up.
You're marked by the beast.
Here we go.
Here we go.
Come on over.
Check this out.
You are marked by the beast.
Also, by the way, if you think of another card,
think of another card right now.
Yeah, why?
Wait, this one is going to be on the head of your penis.
No, don't get it.
Come see, come see.
Yo, here's I got this weird vibe.
You ready on this?
I told you to think of your first kiss.
Because I thought it's like a family show.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah.
But you and I saw some of the vowel.
There was another name.
You were thinking the first girl you ever had sex with, too.
Weren't you?
And this is like the one you were more excited about.
I don't know why this name popped in your head,
because I said first kiss.
The girl, hold on.
Let's say with first kiss, but another name popped in your head.
The name of the first girl you ever kissed,
I think this was like third grade.
I think I think you're both third grade.
Tell me, guys.
Well, you guys see this?
What was her first name?
Your first kiss?
Brittany.
With an A, right?
Brittany.
That's what I was saying, dude.
That's what I was saying, dude.
Yo, yo, yo, take this pad.
Take this pad.
Go over there.
Right down the name of the first girl you ever had sex with.
Don't do it in the corner.
Make sure nobody can see.
Go over there.
Oh, not too deep for the corner.
No, not right there in front of me.
Go in the corner.
Damn, dude.
And you know what, Shane?
Grab a pillow.
Put it over my face.
Make sure there's no one I can see.
Yo, bro.
This is scary, bro.
Shane, choke me a little.
Just a little safe word.
Safe word.
Hold on.
I'm mad.
I'm mad at all of you.
What's our safe word?
Brittany.
Yeah.
Tell me what he's done.
I'm done.
Is it against your body?
Now it is.
Covered up.
OK, here we go.
Here we go.
Here we go.
First girl you ever did the deed with.
First girl you ever did the deed with.
Look at me.
Look into my eyes.
Look back to that day.
Were we talking three weeks ago?
Three weeks ago?
This guy's been on a hot streak.
Think of the letters.
Mix them up.
Mix them up.
Grab a letter out of the middle.
Think of that letter.
Change your mind.
Back and forth.
Back and forth.
What's that?
Hold on.
Look at me.
It's not.
That's a D.
What's the vowel?
What's the vowel?
Starts the vowel.
M-A-N-D.
Amanda, turn it around.
Show everybody.
Well, no.
Wait, wait, wait.
Brittany is a girl.
I already wrote that name down.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I said the name of the first girl you ever had sex with.
Is that Amanda?
They're the same person.
I, they're the same.
I promise you, the two are the same person.
They're both in Brittany?
Now, now, who's Amanda?
Were you thinking of Amanda first?
Amanda, honey, kiss.
Amanda popped in there, but she didn't pop in there.
But she's not the first person I've had sex with.
I was, you didn't count that one.
You know what I'm saying?
It was very premature.
It didn't really, I get it.
Your secret's safe.
Your secret's safe.
Wait, hold on.
Were you actually thinking?
I did think, I did think of a person named Amanda,
but it was because.
Did that pop in your head?
No, no, this is what popped into my head
because when you asked that question.
Yeah.
I, you said the first kiss, like my first,
I knew it was the same.
So I was like, I don't want to say the same thing.
Amanda was next.
Yo, I thought Amanda like, yeah, yeah, yeah.
He was thinking of Amanda.
Hold on, Lamar.
That's insane.
Let's try something, Lamar.
Lamar, yes.
Lamar.
Hello.
Here we go.
Here we go.
Here we go.
Amanda's gonna be tough, dude.
His is Frank.
You have to tell me I know these things.
Lamar, we got five, five people in the room.
Yeah.
Right.
Me, you, Nate, Matt.
We got Shane.
Shout out to Sean on the camera.
Imagine that somebody walked through that door.
Okay.
Now here's what's going to make this good.
Hypothetical.
I'm going to make this as impossible.
Dead or alive.
Dead or alive.
Man or woman, but somebody famous.
Got to be famous.
Can't, I can't, because otherwise you don't want to,
if you told me I could have anybody dead or alive.
I want to see my grandma again.
It's a little bit more sad.
Brings the somberness of the show down.
Kind of like when you brought up a Holocaust in slavery.
Callback.
Is this not a comedy podcast?
Callback, Shane.
These jokes are flying high for you.
I got it.
And somebody walks in, sits down right here on this couch,
and you're like, oh my God, you guys get out of here.
I want to hang with this person for the next two, three hours.
I want you to picture that person right now
as if they're in the room.
Can you do that?
Yeah.
Already doing it, dude.
All right, watch me.
Look this way.
Who do you pick?
Now, I don't know, Lamar.
Did you tell me he was going to be here when you,
when you told me to come to the podcast?
I knew Matt was going to be here.
That was it.
I think Lamar, when I said dead or alive,
that's when his eyes lit up.
And he was like, oh, should I do dead or alive?
Because now that expands your horizons,
because living, you could technically run into somebody.
We live in the great city in the world.
You could run into anybody in New York City.
It could happen.
You can run into you.
I'm here.
I think, I think, I think this person's dead.
Am I right?
Yeah.
All right.
Hold up.
Now let's keep going.
Can't be an anime character.
He might have done an athlete.
I don't think, I think he likes athletes,
but I think he wanted to go big.
I think he wanted to go Hall of Fame.
And I said that this person would walk in this room.
But you know what I think now in hindsight,
I think he turned around and moonwalk.
You're thinking of Michael Jackson, aren't you?
Yeah.
Yeah, dude.
Yeah, dude.
Yeah, dude.
Michael Jackson.
What the fuck, man?
Every black person thinks Michael Jackson.
I saw that on one day.
It was such a nice trick.
Every black person who says Michael Jackson.
Dude, I would, yeah, dude, come on, dude.
That's fucking crazy.
I thought Vince would man.
Oh, he's alive.
I know, but that was, but easy and easy one to guess.
Michael Jackson's, I would have never guessed that you picked
Michael Jackson.
He was imagining Michael Jackson coming in
on John Cena's shoulders.
For the record, that was the visual.
That was the visual.
John Cena's batting off a bunch of little kids.
Like, get out of here.
Wrong.
I'm still fucked up.
Man, destroyed.
Dude, get out of my brain.
Get out of my head.
Get out of my brain.
That's fucked up.
You have your phone?
Yeah.
What are you on?
Is this, oh, your calculator.
Can I go back in?
You want me to unlock it for you?
Let's go to your ATM next, baby.
What do I need?
No, I want you to, you know what?
One, two, three, four.
I want to make a memorable moment.
Do you have your phone?
Do you use Siri?
No, I don't really.
I only want, let me grab your phone.
Here's what I want you to do.
I want you to add up a number.
Add up a, I like how he keeps looking.
He's like, don't go to the photos.
Don't go to the photos.
Here's what I want you to do.
I want you to add up a number, okay?
Add up a number.
But I want every single component of it to be, to be,
you don't forget the one you have.
I want you to make one up on the spot.
Fresh, right here on camera.
So nobody thinks like, oh, this is set up or anything.
I want each one of you to put a little piece of yourself
into this in a way.
What do you think?
What are memorable days in your life?
Hear me out on this.
From the day you were born until today,
what are some of the most memorable days of your life?
I'm assuming when your daughter was born.
Am I right?
For me, like when your kids were,
the day you might have, I don't know,
like give me another day that in your life is very memorable.
Give me one.
Just saying.
9-11.
Yeah.
I mean, that's, truly it is, but a bad one.
Yeah.
I mean, like good or bad.
Good or bad.
Here's what I do.
Lamar, I want you to think of a day in your life that was
either good or bad or whatever, but a specific day.
So like, like 9-11 will be an 11 in this case.
Think of a number, either one or two digits.
You got a number in mind?
Don't write anything.
No, no, don't write anything.
Can we use your calculator?
Yeah.
Type that number in just the one or two digits.
Type it in please.
You don't have to say it out loud.
You got it?
Hand it to Nate.
Nate, here's what I do.
I want you to think, look this way.
He did a day.
I want you to think of a month.
Now, if this was January, that's number one.
If this was December, that's number 12.
If this was something memorable in your life.
I don't know the month.
We don't need the day, but a month.
Have you got a month in mind?
Yeah.
Do this.
Hit plus and type in the month.
Don't hit equal though.
We're going to add some more stuff in.
You got it?
Matt, don't let me put thoughts in your head.
Have you heard me say your daughter's born?
Now he's like, no stuff.
I want you to think we did month, day, and now a year.
Got you.
Okay.
And I want you to also think of a year.
Okay.
You got it?
Any year.
It's got to be year that's, well, no, I'm going to do something
different for you.
You know what?
You got a year in mind.
Okay.
Stonewall, man.
And for you, you know what?
Let's do this.
When you were growing up as a kid, did you ever do this?
Hit, hit plus and do this.
Stop, stop, stop.
Do the two digit year.
So if this was like 97, do 97.
Got you.
If it was 2004, do four.
You get it?
Yep.
So it's probably two digit number or one digit number.
You did that?
You said if there's a zero.
Yeah.
If it's like 07, just do a plus seven.
Yeah.
Feel me?
And now a year in your life that was meaningful.
And then plus?
No, don't hit plus yet.
You got just like that.
A year in your life that's meaningful.
Like 1995, 2006 or whatever it is.
You got it?
And do this.
Look at me.
Hit.
I want you to hit multiply.
Hit equals.
This is got to be even if everyone low balled it.
It's probably like over 10,000.
Is it over 10,000 or no?
Yes.
Is it?
It's not over a million.
Is it?
No.
Unless you did like 99.
I don't know.
Whatever.
So anyway, do you have Syria on your phone?
Yeah.
Who has Siri where we can like?
I guess you're a question.
I guess you're.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's not true.
Turn up the volume on it.
See if you can get Siri to talk into Mike.
Like it's an insult.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Like it's an insult.
Hey, Siri.
I'm going to have disabled this actually.
She doesn't talk.
No.
I don't want to use my phone.
Here we go.
It's a trick.
Let's use yours.
Hey, Siri.
Hi there.
There you go.
She talks dirty.
That doesn't count as porn, right?
That doesn't count as porn.
Did my due diligence.
I heard you guys on Rogan.
Yeah.
This guy's like, I just think of things in my mind.
I'm like, how do you do that?
Turn up the volume.
Turn up the volume.
It's all the way up.
It's all the way up.
Yep.
Okay.
Can we come over here at the mic and the thing?
What do I do to hit Siri a question?
Okay.
Dude, what, remember what I said to you guys?
How do you make a memorable moment?
Really memorable moment, right?
How do I make this a memorable day out of every day?
Since the day you were born until the day, how do I make this one?
You'll never forget.
What did, what did you did a day?
You did a month?
You did a year and you did, I don't know, something else in your life.
What did it all multiplier add up to?
What did you get?
12,830.
12,830.
Does that mean anything to you?
12,830.
Does that mean something to you?
To you?
It's not a pin code.
It's not a, it's not like a zip code or nothing.
Okay.
How, go back in.
12,830.
Can you bring the mic a little closer?
Hi, Siri.
I don't have an answer for that.
It's the most I can help with.
Siri, what was the date 12,000?
It was, my phone's fucked up.
Siri, what was the date 12,830 days ago?
It was Friday, December 11th, 1987.
That's your birthday.
I picked 1992 for the Blizzard of 92.
I picked the Blizzard of 92.
I can't believe that.
It was big 2020.
That was a pretty good year, I think.
I was big 2022.
Oh.
Oh.
Wow.
That just happened.
Yeah.
What was the problem again?
Divide it, but how did you even do that?
What was the math?
I had times it by whatever year I wanted.
That's fucked up.
Yeah.
We've all been mentalized.
Mentalized.
That's fucked up.
You've been mentalized.
You're so shook you can't even speak anymore.
That's actually pretty clear for him.
He's just getting sharper.
So if I were to pick 2019.
What if I didn't, what if I had to pick 2020?
Because I was going to pick 2020.
You went through this whole rigmarole.
I was going to pick 2020.
I said, no, I'm going to give him.
He doesn't know I love the Blizzard of 92.
He doesn't know I love it.
He did.
And you were thinking two numbers.
2020.
No, no, hold on.
Oh, look at me.
You were thinking two numbers.
They were the same.
It's like when he did it.
Three and three.
Were you thinking of three and three?
I don't know.
You just said 2020 and I saw in your head three, three.
Did that make sense?
I don't know.
Okay.
No.
But no.
2020 and 92.
Okay.
So that was weird.
He thought of number three, three.
Oh.
Do you think of three, three, two?
Oh, I don't know why you just did that.
Is that your code?
You just thought three, three.
I just, I just read your mind.
You were thinking three, three.
I was going to do 432.
Oh, okay.
Oh, nice.
But it wasn't what you did.
Oh.
I had a three in there.
You're right.
I did have another three.
You almost cracked it.
No.
That was awesome.
That's weird.
Yeah.
How did you perfect it?
Brittany was impossible.
Yeah.
That's crazy.
With an A?
With an A?
That was bullshit.
It was all impossible.
That was bullshit, dude.
The truth comes out, Nate.
You're with Matt's wife.
This is real weird.
Your first kiss, dude.
There's going to be words when we get back to Philly.
Yeah.
I was trying to block the facial twitches, too.
When you were going through the numbers, I was going like, totally stonewalled.
Blocked.
That was fucked up.
You saw Shane in your face.
You saw Shane in your face.
Blocked the facial.
Wow, wow, Wes.
That was fucked up.
You saw Shane and you're like, Shane's amateur out over here, over here.
Wow, wow, Wes.
Let's just repeat that a few times.
So that it can't, Sean can't edit this out.
There's going to be some Easter eggs in there.
Yeah, it was pretty unbelievable.
That was pretty awesome.
Yeah, I'm in shock.
That was pretty awesome.
Matt, go, go, go.

I'd like a subscription there.
Oh, yeah, Babel.
It's time for me to get back into Espanol, the ancient country
of Espanola.
Babel, language for life.
That'd be nice.
It's time for me to get back into Spanish.
I'm going to get in there.
I'm going to get in my Korean.
Zapados.
Game on.
Actually, not in a while.
Not in a while.
I don't have stinky feet.
He ain't.
I got stinky fucking feet.
Really?
Yeah.
My wife's feet stink.
My lady's feet stink like shit.
My wife's feet are crazy, bro.
Like she's been living in that hoarder house.
Disgustant.
All right.
So then you just stop doing these things, and what are you
going to do?
You go get lunch and stuff?
Shane asked me, should we do the performance at the beginning?
I'm like, uh, I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
Shane asked me, should we do the performance at the beginning?
I'm like, uh, if I do that at the beginning, Shane, you're not
going to be able to say anything after.
He's like, no, no, we'll be good.
I'm like, no, no, you won't.
So in the mentalist community, are there guys that you're like,
damn, that guy's so nasty.
Are there guys that you're like, trash?
We all know each other.
There's not that many.
It's a very small profession.
Very shockingly.
Like the guys who do most of the big, I don't know, high
profile events, or the guys who are the most televised are
a kind of one hand.
Who is the guy who tricked people into like jumping off
of a building?
Did you ever see that?
Darren Brown.
He's probably the most famous.
He's the most famous mentalist in the world, but in the US,
he has not.
He got the Netflix special, but he's not like a household name
in UK.
He is David Blaine Coppill.
He's like a household.
Yeah.
He was just tricking people to jump off buildings.
Dude, he did this thing where he made, he set up a whole
environment where things got so fucked up.
Yeah, I heard this show.
Dude, it was like a dead body.
It was the push.
Yeah.
To push someone off the building.
It was fucking crazy.
And they fell in a safety net, but he convinced people to
kill people.
He did.
They had to be like, like, no, it was just a trick.
Fuck.
That's my finale too.
Lamar's like, I'm not coming to your show.
Yeah, that's awesome.
Yeah, man.
I just on the road all the time working.
Really?
Freaking people out.
And if you, I don't know when this is going to drop, but
everybody watching me on before the Super Bowl.
Probably tomorrow.
Oh, nice.
I'll be on ESPN right before the Super Bowl February 12.
Nice.
Nice.
So what do you think?
Humble brag.
Hopefully right before the Super Bowl.
Where's the Super Bowl party ESPN is on?
Yeah, dude.
Get on there.
I don't know.
People with like psy abilities.
So I like, I can't say that doesn't exist.
I'm not like this person who debunks, but a lot of the
things I see psychics do, I can do just as well, if not
much better, to be honest, but I don't have the, I don't
have the moral compass where I'm going to like scam
people out of being like, I'll talk to your dad, uncle,
you know, like, so, so I could do that.
Imagine instead of me guessing like his first kiss,
we could tell him stuff from like, he think of stuff
because most of what psychics are doing in a lot of instances
is cold reading.
They're watching you and they can size you up.
They know Shane is wearing sweatpants during the day.
Yeah.
Oh yeah.
Like you can see somebody, they got a wedding band,
you know their age, you know they're coming in, you know
their mom statistically might have died of heart disease
or something.
Like you can size people up real quick.
So you could decide and then you're like, I'm getting
to pick up a name with an Emma.
Is it a Michael or a Mark?
You know, you start, you start getting hits.
People, people forget the things you miss.
They remember the things you hit, right?
Kind of like you could have a set where most of your
work sucks, but if you have one killer bit, that's what
people hopefully are going to remember.
With psychics, people are gravitating towards it.
Yeah, they want it.
So I don't, I've always wanted to be like really psychic.
I'm not, I've done some things where I can't understand
how I did them, but I don't think it's psychic.
It's sometimes I get lucky or sometimes I get intuitive
or sometimes I get like a guess and I try to analyze
how did that work?
And it's kind of like anything.
It's like timing.
Dude, do you have an example of such of your non-psychic
abilities?
Like what do you mean?
Like things I've done that I can't explain.
Oh, I've had it in shows all the time, man.
I just had things on shows all the time where I can't
I can't explain to you what's, you know what?
It's like ping pong.
Amanda was weird.
Yeah, Amanda.
Yeah, that one.
I'm also getting a guy.
That one because it was like layers to it.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, I know, man.
Yeah.
Also picking up the name Nicholas.
Who's Nicholas?
No, I'm telling you.
Fuck.
It was, it was that one time you were drunk.
It doesn't count.
It doesn't count.
No, but like I'll guess things and I'll be like,
I don't know how I got that because not the normal
methods I do it and then I can't figure it out,
but there must have been a way and it's you kind of
lean into it and sometimes you just think it's luck.
Like I'll do stuff with it.
I had a car trick one time before I was a mentalist
where I was when I went to Michigan,
there's a BD's Mongolian barbecue place closed down,
but you're in the Mongolian barbecue.
They're like, do you know what I'm talking about?
I've never been there.
Mongolian barbecue.
You guys don't know this?
They make food where they make it on like this huge
circular.
Oh, yes, I have.
Yeah.
So fucking good.
This is secondary to the show, but I used to work there
and I did a trick where people would pick a card instead
of being your pocket magic trick.
They signed the card that I say, put it back in deck,
shuffle it up, rubber band it like crazy.
And I take the deck back.
I rip, I go like this.
I riffle.
I go, I go, do you see that?
And they go, no, I'm like, look on the ceiling, bro.
And their card is stuck to the ceiling and it was my
signature trick and there's hundreds of these cards
all over the ceiling.
It was like my calling card for years when people
go into this restaurant and I was at this college.
And so there's a trick where I did that one time and I,
the guy gave them back to me in the rubber band.
And right when I did the like riffle, rubber band snapped
cards, whatever else, you know, like they just screwed up
the trick.
I can't get the cards all over the floor.
And I start walking around to pick up the cards and dude,
the guy tells me the card, we can't find it anywhere.
And it's not going to be on the ceiling now because I couldn't
do the trip.
And so dude, we get to the end of it and we can't find the
card.
And this guy said, oh, this is it.
This is it.
Like he's like, oh, it's like La Mer was with his Michael
Jackson.
And I'm like, I'm screwed up.
I'm like getting sweaty.
I'm like, I don't know what the hell his card is.
And so he's like, where is it, man?
He's like, is it on me?
And then finally I'm like, ah, and then I like just check
legit just to check under my shoes.
And I lift up my shoe and it's stuck under my shoe.
And it was just a fluke where my shoe was sticky or gum.
And dude, this guy probably talks about this to this day.
And it was an action.
And it was.
You better believe I took credit like hell.
Yeah, bro.
That's how it happens every time.
And in my mind, I was like, like, I think I got, I got
hard right then.
I was so excited.
It was, it was purely, it was like a miracle.
It was an absolute miracle.
Wow.
And so you asked me that.
I don't know how that happened.
That's, but you know what?
That's like putting monkeys on a typewriter.
You do that enough time.
They're going to write you Shakespeare.
That I probably did that trick.
It just rubber band broke.
I'm sweating profusely.
Dude, I don't know.
So things like that happen.
How does that translate with like the personal
relationships?
Can you not mentalize or if you're like asking questions?
If you like tell what somebody's lying to you.
Yeah.
Like if you're like certain instances.
Yeah.
You're like, Hey, how many times you call them or
whatever.
Yeah.
You never get like a five.
Yeah.
Just fully.
Exactly.
A bunch.
Oh yes.
The best.
No, I've never been with a black guy.
What the fuck?
What?
Let me think of the name.
Think of the name.
Yeah.
I think Shane might actually be a mentalist.
I think.
It's just like hit a certain level.
And then this is going to bring you to the next.
Completely break off.
Next Netflix special.
Definitely.
Mentalist.
Light dose of doubt.
You know what I'm saying?
Well, I mean, that was a comical example.
I was just kidding.
But when you're talking to people and they're like,
are they sending off signals all the time?
It takes a lot of focus.
Gosh, you're not funny in real life.
Yeah, but it's not.
You got to like, people don't get that right now.
We're at Thanksgiving dinner.
Do a set.
It's not going to work.
I've got to put you in a situation.
So like, for example, I've had really successful and famous
people call me that you just like, I'm not going to say names
because you're not going to be like that dumb.
Who have literally said to me, dude, I'm buying a company.
I need you to come in for a negotiation.
And if I was more, I really, in hindsight,
mostly should have scammed that person.
Who knows how much they would have paid to be like, hey,
come in and like, tell me what he'll actually spend.
Cause like, what if somebody's going to spend at 1.16 billion instead
of 1.1 billion?
But so I tell them, I was like, dude, I'm not, not going to lie to you.
Do I have a tactical advantage?
Yes.
But it's very small because when I get in there, I can't be like,
all right, now look at me.
Now think of this.
We're doing $1 a billion.
You're not the lawyer.
Like I can't set you up the way I want to set you up.
When you're in my world, I'm the director.
I point the camera where I want and you do the trick the way I want.
If you walked in right now and just said, I'm going to do this,
this, this and I'm not, could I do it?
Maybe, but you can't really hypnotize them.
You just want to hypnotize.
Say you came in as a mentalist though.
It's two billionaires about to like exchange, I guess,
like water rights in India and you're there.
Could you, the guy could be like, I brought in some entertainment
and then you could do the whole thing and skew it towards the deal.
Yes.
That's the move.
Yeah.
Have some boys come and dance at first.
And then like just some entertainment.
They have to be willing to, honestly, yes, that's a great,
that's a great way to low key kind of trick somebody over with
under the guise of a show.
I'm like, oh, you got something in mind.
Let's do something from your.
Like a girl chambering the wall.
Yeah.
Basically, John of the Hut.
John of the Hut's palace.
Imagine your first kiss holding a sign with the amount of money
that you're willing to spend on this company.
I'm going to look at me.
Britney's holding 1.16 million.
Throw me 20 mil, bro.
Man, we got a business model.
Dude, can you do, I hate to ask you to do more stuff.
I'll do one last thing.
You ready?
Yeah.
I got to leave.
I literally told you, my kids got a, I'm volunteering at a school,
not mind reading, diorama building.
All right.
Hold on.
You got to hold this mic.
We got to come on over.
I just got to be hands free because I got a yes for you guys do this.
Here's what you should do.
You can hold the mics a little lower and I want you to each face each other.
Yes.
Yes.
You ready?
Yeah.
This is cute.
I'm very excited.
All right.
You're lefty.
You're righty.
You guys want to come over so you can see this too?
Why are all of you guys holding hands?
We're scared.
This guy, we are not.
This is not suddenly kumbaya.
All right.
All right.
Not holding hands.
Hold that one finger and one finger and just the tip.
Just the tip.
Just for a second.
Okay.
Like you haven't done this before.
Okay.
Man, look this way at me.
Look this way at me.
Turn your body a little face to me so you can't really see Shane,
but you can see him at your peripheral.
All right.
I'm going to take these papers.
All right.
This will be the only thing where I'm not involved.
Everything until now is I've been kind of guessing stuff,
doing stuff, right?
I'm not going to be involved.
If you feel me poke you in the shoulder.
How many times I just do it?
We count three.
You nailed it.
Okay.
If you feel me do something,
if it's once or more than once,
I want you to keep track of how many times.
Okay.
Now you do not need to like announce it.
So if I take this piece of paper,
it won't be a poke necessarily.
It could be a poke squeeze,
or it could be something as light as a brush.
If you feel it,
you don't have to scream.
Okay.
You don't be like,
Oh my God,
it falls on my hand because literally we can all see it.
Right?
Are you guys watching this?
All right.
Now my theory is that while you two are connected,
you don't have to push.
This is still not,
this got aggressive for some reason.
Curve.
Curve.
Yeah.
Oh, that looks like mine.
Honestly.
Shane and you are going to be joined literally.
Look this way, Matt.
Look this way.
All right.
All right.
Tilt your head a little.
Just look, look over.
Look up a little so you can see your head.
All right.
Close your eyes.
No peeking.
No peeking.
Can every single one of you see Matt?
Everybody say yeah.
Yeah.
All right.
Matt, this is kind of like if we were to do a,
you know, action.
This is the moment.
No peeking.
I'm going to do a test run.
Do a test run.
Don't, don't, don't hurt him.
All right.
Matt.
Did you just feel a poke on your left knee?
Did you guys see me do that?
You got to say yes, Shane.
Say yes.
All right.
You're not peeking, Matt.
Your eyes are closed 100%.
I want you to tell us all,
do me a favor.
Right now, what did you feel after me?
What did I do to you?
What'd you feel?
My nose.
You brushed it with paper.
What?
Guys, bro.
What?
I just took this paper, leaned over and brushed him down his nose.
It was my nose.
It was my nose.
It was my nose.
It was my nose.
I swear to God, I fell to rub my nose.
I fell to touch my nose.
It was me.
What?
No, he did it to me.
He did it to me.
He came down my nose.
Oh man.
He wasn't nowhere near you.
I swear to God, it touched my nose.
It touched my nose.
That's how you end the night, baby.
Oh, dude.
Awesome job.
That was amazing.
I felt as clear as that.
If you go take a leak, it's going to be real weird.
It's going to be real weird.
Eskimo Brothers all of a sudden.
It's real weird.
Thank you.
That was awesome.
Dude, that was incredible.
Dude, it was like, it was like right down my face.
Yeah.
I swear to God.
I mean, we filmed it.
It would be awesome if we did it.
You guys are tricking me.
We are up, baby.
Man, that's unbelievable.
Shane is crying.
I mean, that was like sweating, dude.
He's going to take a mid-afternoon nap after this.
He's going to take a walk.
Yeah, I'm going to go pray.
He's about to see if Brittany still got it.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah, I might slide in.
All right.
Well, the mentalists knew everything.
First base all the way to the homerun.
Oh, you're the real deal.
Thanks, guys.
Thank you so much, man.
Dude, awesome, man.
I got comedian friends now.
I love it.
I'm nestling my way in eventually.
All right.
Thank you.
That's awesome.
Later, boys.
What the fuck, man?
