Symbols And Secrets Jonathan Pritchard

Jeff McBride is the best of the best, and when I originally thought about this podcast & what I wanted it to be, Jeff was the unofficial “patron saint” of Symbols & Secrets.
It’s a delight to have him on the show sharing his thoughts on secrets, magic, mystery, and beyond.

Fred Zimmerman is a respected Chicago actor who has appeared in National Broadway Touring Companies, Regional & Stock Companies, and in theaters across Chicagoland.
He can also be seen on several Hit NBC Series, including Chicago Fire and Chicago PD. 
When he’s not onstage getting into the heads of his characters, he’s getting inside the heads … of his AUDIENCE at corporate & private events.
Fred stops by the podcast to talk about the work that goes into creating his shows & experiences for his audiences. It’s a fantastic look into getting the most out of your character on (and off) stage.

William Pack is a Chicago staple with a foot in the world of cheats, cons, and swindles while firmly planting his other foot into the history of magic + performing.
In our conversation he explains why magic has never been a hobby, how he used to cheat a charity, and more.
I guarantee you’ll learn a thing or three.

Peter first became fascinated with magic at the age of eleven when he stumbled across a magic book at his local library.  He now travels around the country performing his award winning magic that will defy your reality.  Peter’s show is about two things, astonishing magic, and having a good time; and he doesn’t skimp on either.  You might recognize him by his trademark orange sneakers, or from the group of people around him freaking out at his magic and having a good time.  The title Magician for Non-Believers is about being honest with his audience.  Magic isn’t real… but Peter will make you believe it is for the length of his show.  Combining original mind blowing magic, and a heavy dose of humor is his secret to success and why it’s made him one of the top booked college acts around the country.
