iTricks Magic Stars podcast

Jason Raff, executive producer of America's Got Talent talks about last season's magic resurgence, how magicians can succeed during auditions this summer and if he thinks that a magician can win in the next three years.

Rico de la Vega talks about making Michael Grasso the last magic man standing on America's Got Talent, what goes into making Cyril the top magician on Asian television and what it's like to produce and star in two American magic series (T.H.E.M and Room 401) in this MUST LISTEN podcast for anyone interested in TV magic.

Eric Ross joins us to talk about his new products and how to consult for Cyril.

Nathan Burton joins us for our final America's Got Talent Weekly edition of the podcast this season. We break down Michael Grasso's final performance and nail down some lessons for folks who want to audition this summer for next season. Also, we speculate which name acts might show up on the AGT stage next summer.

Nathan Burton is here again to talk about the FIRST MAGICIAN EVER IN THE AMERICA'S GOT TALENT FINALS! Why did Michael Grasso advance and Murray didn't? We lay out the incredible challenge ahead for Grasso as he has to top his great performance twice in the next TWO weeks if he wants to be the first magician to win.

Nathan Burton is back to discuss this weeks America's Got Talent results. Dan and Antonio went home and we look ahead to what Michael Grasso and Murray can learn from their performances.
