    Episode 6: Joe Diamond

    In this episode, I talk with America’s Greatest Mind Reader, Joe Diamond. I’ve followed Joe for a while, and he’s one of the few magicians I know who’s also worked closely with psychics. He was one of the first people I thought of when I started this project — and hopefully he’ll return for another episode in the future. I’ll warn you: we veered into magician talk a bit more than I expected, so you’ll get some insider baseball on the magic industry. Joe also shares stories from his time working with a local psychic and talks about what I’m going to call a genuinely strange paranormal experience involving the late Eugene Burger. I decided in the moment to ask about Eugene because his work as a magician and teacher has inspired me since I first got into magic — and Joe knew him personally. I couldn’t resist. I’d strongly encourage you to check out Eugene’s performances on YouTube. He was a true master. Here’s one of my all-time favorite routines of his, for your viewing pleasure: https://youtu.be/fvGdrAcMs_Y?si=wCvc361JfO9MaAKS Follow Joe on Instagram @joediamondlive, and if you’re in the Chicago/Wisconsin area, go see one of his shows.

    Some Thoughts on Reading Tarot

    Solo episode from the holidays! This week I try to unpack some of my thoguhts on being a more effective tarot reader. Books mentioned in the episode: Tarot Reading for Magicians by Paul Voodini — the book that got me started. Image-based, intuitive tarot taught from a magician’s perspective. Still one of the best ways to learn without memorizing meanings. Guided Tarot by Stephanie Caponi — my go-to recommendation for beginners. Easy to find, Rider-Waite based, and includes spreads I actually use, including Release & Retain. The Marseille Tarot Revealed by Yoav Ben-Dov — hugely influential for how I read now. Helped me move toward Marseille tarot, visual storytelling, and reading the cards as a whole instead of isolated meanings. The Tarot by Robert M. Place — fantastic history of tarot. I don’t connect with his reading system at all, but the historical context is worth it. Steal Like an Artist by Austin Kleon — not a tarot book, but central to my philosophy. Take what resonates, discard the rest, and build something that’s actually yours. The Book of Symbols — a great reference for deepening symbolism beyond tarot. Helpful for understanding why certain objects show up in the cards and what they can represent.
