A Magician Finds Wonder in Everyday Life

Description:

Nate Staniforth, a magician, writer, and former host of the Discovery Channel’s show Breaking Magic, talks about his new book Here Is Real Magic: A Magician's Search for Wonder in the Modern World. For over a decade, Nate toured the US as one of the busiest working magicians in the country. But after years on the road, he became disillusioned and traveled to India in search of real magic. It was in India -- as he talked to snake charmers and yogis, performed for locals, and infiltrated a 3,000-year-old clan of street magicians -- that he realized the importance of wonder in everyday life. 

This segment is guest hosted by Kai Wright.
