Summary

This week, we’re joined by world-famous mentalist Oz Pearlman, and things immediately go off the rails. Oz reads minds in real time, exposes how easily Josh and Ben give away their thoughts, and pulls off tricks that make absolutely zero sense - even after he explains them. We get into Oz’s viral moments with Joe Rogan and Howard Stern, the truth about whether magic is actually real, and why mind reading works even when you don’t believe in it. Plus: ultra-marathons, three kids, magician beef, and one final mentalist stunt that leaves the room fully broken. Stick around - this episode will make you question reality… and your own intelligence. What, are ya nuts? Love ya!
