Magic Talk by Anson Chen

Hello! So excited to be releasing this episode of Magic Talk with you guys. Today's conversation is with Teller from the legendary Penn & Teller. As most of you already know, Teller doesn't speak when he is on stage, but in this episode he dropped countless knowledge bombs and gems that I've found to be super valuable advices. Big thank you once again to Teller for being generous with his time and presence. Really loved every moment of this conversation. Hope you enjoy the episode!
