“ I come here to laugh, but like it like really surprised me. It’s actually really good.”
Jonathan: One of the coolest parts of the job is getting to travel all over the world and get to see all parts of the country and get to see friends that are everywhere across the continent. What’s even better is when one of my friends is on the road in my neck of the woods and I get to sleep in my own bed tonight. That’s why I am here at one of my great friends for a long time. Had him on the podcast for Magicians, is doing a show tonight, right in here and I am super stoked to see his show for the first time in. Years. So let’s go check out Michael Kent’s live magic show.
Show Audio: “He was featured on the hit show. For us and has performed his show in over 200 cities in 15 different countries. Please welcome comedian magician, Michael Kent…”
“…there’s something for you inside….”
“…there a glass, that’s a bottle, that’s a glass. If you cover the glass that comes bottle, if you cover the bottle, it becomes a glass. Put it right here…”
Student: “Uh, my favorite part was when they showed the whole rope thing.”
Student: “Uh, my favorite part when y’all came back and he wrote Diamond three on the board, like, that was crazy.”
“I don’t get the, like me and her were here while he was setting set. I don’t get it. The ending with the cards. On the whiteboard, that 100% my favorite part.”
Student: “I come, I come here to laugh, but like, it like really surprised me. It’s actually really good.”
Jonathan: So that was the show. I absolutely love how he works with the audience, brings folks up on stage and is still able to reach beyond the stage into the audience, figuratively and literally, right by going out where the people are, uh, just like The Little Mermaid, right? So it’s, it’s a really good blend of comedy.
Really strong, hard-hitting. That gets folks, it hooks ’em, brings them in, and really rewards them for their participation, for their attention. And as you can see, it is well rewarded. You can see how this group of 60, 70 college students are just really, really engaged the entire time and responsive. That is not an easy thing to do, which is why it’s awesome that, uh, this guy has been doing it for so long, makes it look easy, but it is not an easy thing to do.
So come by, watch him work anytime you can. 10 out of 10 would recommend. That’s the Michael Kent show.
See, what did I tell you? Top notch performer. Super awesome guy. Audiences just absolutely. I am not friends with scrubs, . So yeah, that was a, a fun time. And if you are in the neighborhood, you’re doing a show, please let me know. I want to see it. And, uh, remember, as always, change your mind. Change your life.
