Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard23 Apr 2025

David Blaine (magician and mentalist)

David Blaine (Do Not Attempt, Buried Alive, Above the Below) is a magician, mentalist, and endurance performer. David joins the Armchair Expert to discuss the deck of cards his mom gave him as a kid in Brooklyn, keeping his magic secret when he was young because other children are a brutal audience, and why his unique ability for breath holding was the beginning of his love of endurance. David and Dax talk about the reason he decided to do the buried alive endurance performance, how Buster Keaton informed him doing stunts in one take for Street Magic, and learning that he could change the course of his mother’s day with a simple trick. David explains the physical sensations of spending 44 days in a plexiglass box, why he doesn’t recommend eating glass, and how the most meaningful part of making his new show was the people he met.
