I had heard many describe their experience as transformative and talked about how they or their friends cried for hours and thought about this show for days, weeks, and months after viewing. My intrigue lasted up until just after the end of the first story when it became apparent that this was all an emotional manipulation put on by the magician.

I think the trick is that I’m still watching this boring guy. Like watching an NPR host do magic tricks and telling pointless stories. Here’s a good idea, have a point. It makes it so much more interesting for the listener!… Expand
