The Magician’s Wife

The Magician’s Wife

Join professional TV/stage magician Barry Jones and his wife Lora, a professional writer, to explore some of the world’s craziest mysteries, from true crime to the paranormal. Each fortnightly episode delves into a real-life case and, just like a ”how to” conjuring book, dissects it into two essential components: The Effect— the astonishing spectacle that leaves the public in awe; and The Method— the secret techniques and misdirection that remain concealed from the untrained eye. And not only that, but you, the listener, will be invited to participate in a series of brain-bending audio hallucinations along the way! So prepare to be amazed, as Barry and Lora pull back the curtain to expose the smoke and mirrors behind crimes, hoaxes, the supernatural and much more, unveiling their inner workings.
