Just some updates for last month

I found the price point to be around £44.99. For everything included, I feel like I got a really good deal. If you’re considering purchasing this, I would highly recommend getting it directly from Adam’s site, https://www.deceptive-secrets.co.uk/store/p/everyday-esp, as I feel that supports him directly.

In an effort to work on my writing skills, I am currently reworking the reviews and articles.

The MindHaus Store is an online retail platform, accessible via mindhaus.co.uk, that specialises primarily in products related to mentalism, readings, and mystical arts, with categories including FILMS, E-BOOKS, PHYSICAL GOODS, MERCH, and a BARGAIN BIN. Lewis Le Val is a central figure associated with the store, having authored or collaborated on a vast number of its offerings, such as "Devil Knows," "The Storyteller," "Invocation," and "Natural Magic". MindHaus sells products from various creators, including high-priced projects like The Arithmancer by Christopher Parrish and Daniel Sutton (listed at £65), down to lower-priced PDF effects often found in the Bargain Bin section. These products cover diverse areas such as reading systems, psychometry, cartomancy, numerology, and the use of ESP symbols. Lewis Le Val's writings are often noted for their emphasis on storytelling, structuring, and providing strong, direct mentalism techniques that require work and study

The provided sources offer conflicting perspectives on the mentalism book, This is Absolutely Real by Thom Bleasdale, published by The 1914. The YouTube channel "Unbiased Magic Reviews" strongly criticises the book, calling it terrible, unoriginal, and filled with ineffective routines, while specifically recommending readers purchase the author's older Tommy Pad" instead of the book. Conversely, the publisher's website, "The 1914, promotes the book as a collection of "masterful underground mentalism" routines compiled over two decades, emphasising contributions from respected figures like Banachek and Kenton Knepper. A review from the YouTube channel "Mentalism OAS Reviews" provides a favourable assessment, praising the book's high-quality design and finding it a valuable resource for both experienced mentalists and magicians interested in the craft.

Can the AI hosts bring order to this age old debate?

Just some general stuff to update you all.

A standard Zener deck consists of 25 cards, with five of each symbol. The beauty of these five shapes is their universal simplicity. They are instantly recognizable but lack any strong, inherent cultural baggage, unlike a standard playing card suit. I utilize this symbolic neutrality by assigning metaphorical weight to each shape, which enhances the overall mystique of my mind-reading demonstrations.

Imagine this: a mentalist asks you to think of any random, three-digit number. Before you even say it aloud, they scribble something on the back of a business card, place it in their wallet, and set it on the table. You then name your number—let's say "769." The mentalist slowly opens the wallet, removes the card, and turns it over. In clear writing, it says "769." An impossible moment.

Looking at Minimal Mentalism and what this can offer.

Just a podcast to explain further and get a few things off my chest.

It is my pleasure to offer a detailed deep dive on the vital topic of switching wallets as they pertain to my work in mentalism, drawing directly from the essential tools and observations available in the sources.

Ok folks no AI this time (apart from the background music) on the next up coming review!

Ah, hello everybody! Welcome to what is essentially my deep dive into the latest release from our very good friends over at The 1914: Triharder by the brilliant Simon Lipkin.

Full review can be found over at my Buy Me A Coffee site.

I recently had the opportunity to dive into Ben Williams' latest release, 5WITCH - 5 Natural and Deceptive Card Switches. As a reviewer, I was sent this download free of charge, but I assure you, I am looking at it very carefully, reviewing it as if I had spent my hard-earned money (or, in some cases, the money donated to me by supporters). Any time Ben releases a new project, I sit up and listen, and the endorsement from Richard Sanders calling it "Seamless, natural, wonderful!" immediately suggested I was on the right track.

I am genuinely excited to share my detailed thoughts on ICE-BERG, the minimalist ACAAN effect created by Daniel Dorian Johnson and published through MindFX

I recently took the plunge and downloaded Trifecta by Simon Lipkin, available through The 1914, and I’m ready to share my thoughts on this collection. This download presents a trilogy of powerful, practical, and entertaining mentalism effects suitable for close-up and parlour performances. I managed to grab it early for £20, although I believe the price has since increased to £25. The whole package includes video tuition and a supplementary PDF.

I’ve been searching for a smart, versatile pouch or wallet to help organize the everyday tricks I perform, and frankly, most generic pouches just don’t cut it—they’re designed for items either too big or too small for a magician’s needs. That’s why I was keen to get my hands on Dee Christopher’s Maverick, the next-generation Everyday Carry (EDC) pouch. This item is specifically purpose-built for "us magic folk" and promises to allow you to carry an entire close-up act everywhere you go, ensuring you are always prepared.
