ON TODAY.
IT’S HONEY WINE, WHY NOT HONEY
BEER?
RIGHT?
>> Jason: YOU MIGHT RECOGNIZE
HIM FROM HIS HIT TV SHOW AS HE
PULLED OFF AMAZING ILLUSIONS IN FRONT OF UNSUSPECTING GUESTS.
FRONT OF UNSUSPECTING GUESTS.
NOW CARBONARO IS LIVE FROM SPACE
AND HE JOINS US NOW.
>> I’M GREAT, HOW ARE YOU?
>> Jason: I’M TOTALLY SOLD ON
THE IDEA THAT YOU’RE FLOATING IN
FRONT OF THE MOON.
>> I’M IN OUTER SPACE RIGHT NOW.
EVERYBODY NEEDS A BREAK FROM
EARTH, RIGHT SOME WE HAVE TO GET
OUT TO OUTER SPACE AT LEAST FOR
A NIGHT.
IT’S MAGIC, IT’S AN ILLUSION,
DOUG HENNING.
>> I LOVE DOUG HENNING.
YOU’RE SPEAKING MY LANGUAGE NOW.
IT’S LIKE DOING MY TV SHOW BUT
WAY MORE INTIMATE THROUGH THE
COMPUTER.
TIME TALKING TO FAMILIES THROUGH
THEIR COMPUTER AND COMMUNICATE
WITH THEM.
LET’S DO A TRICK RIGHT NOW.
LIVE ON TELEVISION!
.
I’VE GOT A DECK OF CARDS, JASON,
AND THESE ARE SPECIAL BECAUSE I
STARTED DRAWING ON THEM, I WAS
HAVING A RECURRING DREAM WHERE I
WAS ON STAGE AND HAD NO IDEA
WHAT I WAS SUPPOSED TO DO.
AND I WAS DRAWING IT DOWN ONE
AFTER ANOTHER ON AN ENTIRE DECK
OF CARDS AND IT STARTED TO
CHANGE A LITTLE BIT AS THE DREAM
WAS MOVING ON, ALMOST LIKE A
FLIP BOOK.
SO IT STAYS AS AN ANIMATION.
JASON, NAME ANY CARD YOU WANT.
>> Jason: JACK OF HEARTS.
>> SO LET’S PASS THE SPADES AND
GO OVER HERE TO THE DIAMONDS AND
THE HEARTS.
JASON, JACK OF HEARTS, ARE YOU
SURE?
>> YES.
>> YOU DON’T WANT TO CHANGE YOUR
MIND?
>> NO.
>> THAT’S GOOD.
GOOD TO KEEP THAT.
THE JACK OF HEARTS.
AND I’M HAPPY SO SAY THAT
BECAUSE THE JACK OF HEARTS IS
THE CARD YOU SAID IN MY DREAM.
IT WAS 52 NIGHTS OF THE SAME
DREAM, AND LOOK AT THIS
ANIMATION, IT’S LIKE A FLIM FLIP
BOOK, REACHING INTO MY HAT AND
PULLING OUT A CARD AND CHECK IT
OUT, IT’S --
>> Jason: GET OUT OF HERE!
GET OUT OF HERE!
>> Tati: IT’S NOT A SAFE SPACE
FOR YOU.
>> ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN IN OUTER
SPACE.
>> Jason: WE HAVE VIDEO OF WHAT
YOUR SHOW WAS LIKE BEFORE COVID
HIT.
AND PEOPLE WERE PACKED TOGETHER
OLD STYLE.
IS THAT THE SAME SHOW YOU’VE
TOURED THEATERS WITH THE PAST FEW YEARS?
FEW YEARS?
>> YES, THAT WAS ME, CARBONARO
LIVE.
AND WE’RE NOT ALL CRAMMED
TOGETHER NOW IN A THEATER.
IT’S 500 PEOPLE, IT’S LIKE 500
HIDDEN CAMERAS AT ONCE, FAMILIES
ARE PLAYING ALONG AND I BRING
KIDS UP VIRTUALLY AND THEY HELP
OUT AND ANSWER QUESTIONS.
WE’RE TELEPORTING AN OBJECT
RIGHT FROM MY STUDIO TO
SOMEONE’S HOUSE SOMEWHERE IN THE
UNITED STATES TONIGHT, AN OBJECT
WILL TELEPORT THROUGH THE
COMPUTER. >> Jason: I THINK I KNOW HOW YOU
>> Jason: I THINK I KNOW HOW YOU DID THAT VISUAL I WILL ! $
VISUAL ILLUSION, AND I THINK I ! $
VISUAL ILLUSION, AND I THINK I
KNOW BUT I WON’T TELL THE
AUDIENCE.
>> YOU KNOW, VIRTUALLY, EVEN US
TALKING LIKE THIS, IT’S ODDLY
MORE INTIMATE THAN TELEVISION,
AND IT’S EVEN MORE INTIMATE THAN
BEING ON STAGE.
YOU’RE RIGHT THERE IN SOMEONE’S
LIVING ROOM HANGING OUT WITH
THEM.
IT’S A FUN INTIMATE SPACE.
>> Jason: REMIND EVERYONE HOW TO
GET A VIRTUAL TICKET TO YOUR SHOW.
>> MICHAELCARBONARO.COM, A SHOW

13th, ONE TICKET, $25 AND THE
WHOLE FAMILY GETS TO WATCH.

MAGNIFICENT ILLUSION, I KNOW YOU
