Summary

Criss Angel sits down with Adam at Jimmy Kimmel’s Comedy Club in Las Vegas. The guys chat about the success of Criss’ show ‘Mindfreak’ and how he designs his illusions. Criss then guides Adam throughout his history performing magic, explaining that it started out as an obsession from an early age. Adam and Criss discuss how Vegas has changed in the last 30 years and Criss explains his love for MMA and training. Next, the guys share their philosophies on parenting and Criss talks about his son being diagnosed with cancer. Adam tells Criss that he’s looking at properties in Las Vegas after the interview and the guys laugh about how crazy Los Angeles is getting. This leads to a discussion about LA council members recently opposing a new motion to prevent catalytic converter thefts.
