| 0:00.0 | Toucher and Hardy. |
| 0:01.2 | Individuals who seek acceptance, respite, and care. |
| 0:05.5 | 985, a sports hub. |
| 0:07.8 | I told you that back in my days as an illusionist assistant when I was assisting Franz Harari, |
| 0:14.6 | whom we all know by now, he's become a household name. |
| 0:16.8 | Of course. |
| 0:17.9 | That he was responsible for the illusions in a lot of musical acts, including Alice Cooper's, and he had the snake. |
| 0:24.7 | Alice Cooper always had the snake. |
| 0:26.0 | Well, this snake wasn't really Alice's pet. |
| 0:28.7 | It was more of like this prop snake that, you know, was moved around from, like, show to show, |
| 0:33.8 | and everyone would want to use this same snake. |

| 1:31.0 | Very quickly, if you want to find a very magician-y Instagram, that's a lot of fun. |
| 1:36.6 | Chris Angel does not disappoint. |
| 1:39.1 | Well, now you've lost me for the segment. |
| 1:41.8 | You should see, it's not so much about illusion as it is about behind the scenes what it takes to get in the kind of shape he's in. Oh, I see that I don't care for. Well, when you're 5-490 pounds, I mean, it's hard to stay ripped. Like Chris Angel is the most magician-y magician of all magicians.
