Like a rabbit out of a hat, Mike Super pulled himself into the national limelight a dozen years ago as a finalist on season 9 of America’s Got Talent. Today, he’s a star magician performing two shows Sept. 19 at the Wortham Center for the Performing Arts.

I’m Matt Peiken of See Hear. In today’s podcast conversation, Mike and I dive beyond his bag of tricks and his pursuit of amazement to reveal the art, craft and storytelling he builds into his act. We also distinguish between the work of a magician and mentalist and the label he chooses to wear, as a mystifier. And if you’re watching on video, we close with a trick he makes look all too easy.
