Building NYC's Magic Empire - Nadav Roet

<p>Nadav Roet started doing magic at 4 years old in Israel, moved to Amsterdam to live in his Holocaust-survivor grandfather&#39;s hometown, and landed in New York — where he now runs The Bluff, the city&#39;s underground magic show built for the young, cool crowd. He&#39;s an award-winning mentalist featured in Cosmopolitan and New York magazine, and in this episode, Nadav will convince you that magic is the single coolest art form ever invented.</p><p>Follow Nadav on socials @NadavRoet and @TheBluffNYC</p><p>Support our work: buymeacoffee.com/peoplejewwannaknow</p><p><br></p><p>**What We Discuss:**</p><p>00:00 Intro &amp; Episode Agenda</p><p>02:00 Growing up in magic and building The Bluff</p><p>06:30 The magic renaissance and why every party has a magician now</p><p>11:00 A third-generation Holocaust survivor&#39;s Jewish identity</p><p>14:00 Israeli skeptics vs. American audiences</p><p>17:00 A live mind-reading trick (watch on video)</p><p>24:00 Why magic is a proudly Jewish — but never insular — art form</p><p>30:00 Magic Camp, meeting your heroes, and killing your darlings</p><p>38:00 Where the female magicians are</p><p>41:00 Do what you love, with what you have, and have fun</p><p>43:00 Closing Remarks &amp; Guest Nomination</p>
