They're guys, they do magic. They are The Magic Guys.

Well, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to...
Welcome, welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to episode 279 of The Magic Guys. I'm Josh Norbido from Australia, and joining us live from LA is Mr. Nick Kay.
**Nick Kay** (0:27)
That's right, friends, your boy is in the city of angels all the way from Melbourne after a wonderful 14-hour flight. It's good to be here.
**Josh Norbido** (0:37)
Boom. How was the flight, by the way? What do you do to kill the time? Do you sleep, do magic, watch movies? What do you do?
**Nick Kay** (0:43)
I had to catch a daytime flight, so I left at like 9 a.m. and then flew for 14 hours. It was basically daytime for me as far as my brain was concerned. I did try to nap, maybe got an hour in, but I went through two books, started a third, watched a few movies, and then I was just working on Yamanaka, trying to memorize it. So I just do stuff. I'm always so busy. I don't mind sitting still for 14 hours. It was great.
**Josh Norbido** (1:10)
Sometimes it's nice to have that time, right? Just to spend a little bit.
**Nick Kay** (1:15)
Yeah. And I was going to ask for an upgrade. But before I said anything, the lovely lady who, when I was checking in, just went, I'm going to give you a whole row to yourself. And I was like, I'll take that. I'm not going to ask for an upgrade anymore. So yeah.
So I just got to put my feet up and whatever else. Like it was great.
**Josh Norbido** (1:32)
Yeah. Dude. That's awesome.
Digg, I am changing all my words today. Father Digg couldn't make it today because he's still recovering and getting used to being on screen with his new pearly whites, but he'll be on soon. So we will welcome Digg when he comes back.
But today, we are joined by a viral sensation who has been a friend of mine for a while now. We do, as you know, very, we have a very similar approach to magic and love for a certain type of card magic, if it all stacks up right, if you know what I mean, and I think you do. And this guy, New York City magician, performing full time. And then in the recent, I want to say year or so, which we'll talk all about, he's been getting millions and millions of views doing card magic, which is so beautiful. And pickpocketing is getting so much attention, I couldn't be happier for him, and I can't wait to talk all about it. Please welcome, it's Mr. Harrison Kramer.
**Nick Kay** (2:46)
Harrison Kramer.
**Harrison Kramer** (2:51)
Thank you so much for having me, such a pleasure to be here.
**Nick Kay** (2:54)
Welcome to the show, buddy, please tell everyone who are you, what do you do.
**Harrison Kramer** (2:57)
So I am Harrison Kramer, I am a magician based I'm from New. York City. I do mostly corporate events and virtual magic shows. And then in about November of last year, I got the meta glasses, and I've been on my own journey, trying to figure out what that can do and where that goes. And so I guess it's now July, so we're about maybe eight months into the meta glasses.
**Josh Norbido** (3:20)
Man, I mean, let's just dive into a little bit of that first, because that's how a lot of people know about you, right?
**SPEAKER_1** (3:25)
Yeah, well, the only way that people know about me is the answer.
**Harrison Kramer** (3:28)
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
**Josh Norbido** (3:30)
Dude, you got to take what comes, right? Like, tell me, what was your life and social media life before meta glasses?
**Harrison Kramer** (3:38)
Yeah, so it's a pretty interesting viewpoint to see, like, back like a year ago, two years ago, three years ago, posting on Instagram, like what you were thinking versus like now, once you've kind of seen the other side of like, like lots of views and numbers and comments and all this stuff. And just to like, so like have a better understanding of how like these things exist and what they really are. So yeah, so I had like 1000 Instagram followers less my entire life. I think in December of 2025, I had 1000 Instagram followers. So this is less after I started posting my videos.
And then in January, I think I had like my first video that was like, oh, people are watching this. And then all of a sudden they had 4000 and 5000 and 6000 And then I had the cop video and then it kind of like went a lot faster from there.
