Show notes

In this episode I sit down with actor, magician, and podcast host Steve Valentine. We go way back to my Vegas days, and it’s been incredible to see his career evolve. Best known for his role as Nigel Townsend on Crossing Jordan, Steve has also appeared in Mars Attacks!, Spider-Man 3, and voiced characters in Dragon Age and Uncharted 2. Beyond acting, he’s an acclaimed magician who has performed at the legendary Magic Castle and now explores the art of illusion on his podcast, Magicians Only. We dive into what people misunderstand about magic, the surprising parallels between acting and performing illusions, and how he’s reinvented himself in Hollywood. If you’ve ever been curious about the magic behind the curtain—both literal and metaphorical—this is an episode you won’t want to miss!Want to advertise on our show?
