What does the man behind Magic for Humans listen to when he’s not busy pulling a fast one on the laws of physics? In this exclusive sit-down, we trade the deck of cards for a record player as we dive deep into the musical mind of Justin Willman.
From the high-energy tracks that fuel his live comedy specials to the deep cuts that inspired his creative journey, Justin reveals how rhythm and melody influence his unique brand of "magic with a wink." We discuss the parallels between songwriting and trick-building, his "guilty pleasure" playlists, and why the right soundtrack is the ultimate secret weapon for any performer. Whether you're a die-hard fan of his Netflix series or a music junkie looking for fresh recommendations, this episode pulls back the curtain on the auditory world of a modern master.
