Chris Kenner, Rick Mau, Jay Gilligan, who's a juggler, one of the best jugglers in the world. Um, we've had Tina Leonard. We've had I'm going to forget all of the guests I've had now because I feel under pressure because I wasn't going to do this bit, but they're all brilliant. Have a look at them. Oh god, Rob James. Um, some really surprising ones that said yes. [laughter] Can't remember. It's [snorts] like when someone says, "What did you do yesterday?" No idea. So yeah, them. But have a look wherever you get him, you'll see. You'll be amazed that he said yes to me interviewing them. So uh oh yeah, and follow me on Instagram, Steve Fulner, and uh share this and do other things probably. But anyway, what is this? What is this EDC? What is this everyday carry? E. So, this is something. Now, I know Dave, right? Dave's a very good He's just stormed it in Edinburgh. He's he's a very creative person. He tries to come up with things. These things that he releases are like they're not and I'm I'm sure you won't mind me saying that. They're not like you've written something on a bit of paper 30 meters away and I've said what you've written. It's not that they're subtler things. They're kind of things that you do on the way to something. And that's a a good thing, right? This is this something you if you're going to do that stuff, you would build up to a little bit like um I haven't done I haven't done it yet, the Chris Rollins uh crystal trick, which is great as well. It's just something that is it's not like a closer. It could be depending on how you do it, but it it it's just really delightful. And this is a brilliant way to practice your cold reading or hot reading or whatever the difference is I always get confused about you. Meaning you're not just going to give someone a revelation and there is a revelation in this. You're going to find a really interesting way to get there which you can't really lose with. So, and I found practicing palm reading, and this is how it's so clever because you can tell me practicing palm reading has allowed me to have the freedom to just look at someone's palm and just kind of wing it and now go back and research if I want to get into that sort of thing. And by the time you've got the revelation, they're really surprised because they're sort of depending on who it is. If you get the right person, they're engaged even before they know that there's some sort of revelation. You don't sell it as that or you don't have to. So [snorts] what is this? Well, the first method wise, this is something that I've seen many times in many things that I have never liked because you have to go through a process and usually that process has nothing to do usually nothing to do with what you're revealing. There's disconnect. There's this thing of right look at this and go do this this and this and I'll tell you what you're looking at. But I've always found that weird. What you do on here is you say or if you want to go this is if you want to go with this presentation you say right I'm practicing readings I'm practicing and I've been saying that I'll do slight of hand I'm 52 one day my hands aren't going to work as well so I'm trying to get in more psychological stuff and I found that readings even though I'm not really a believer in psychic ability have have really helped me just kind of as a framework of kind of looking at my life and and um and helping me with challenges. So, so I thought I'd get into it cuz actually I quite like the idea of it. Like a non- psychic psychic if you feel what I mean. And uh and what this this is a cool little card because it tells you it's like a learning card. So it tells you what the lines are and it's got all the different areas of of of life life that could be, you know, applicable to you. So for example, we've got destiny, dreams, fears, romance, ambition, passion, career, adventure, all right, if you're into that sort of thing. [snorts] Uh wellness, friendship, creativity. So, I'd like you to think of anything in your life that you know you want you're having a challenge with. It doesn't have to be really heavy. I'm not asking you to sh you know there are people here deepest darkest secrets. Go for it if you want, but you know, go for something a bit more light, but something that you find a daily challenge maybe. Have you got something? And when you've got that, think about what these different categories here what that fits into. I don't want to know what it is, but just think about it. And you go, they go, "Right, I've got one." and you go, "Well, these are the four lines, the faint line, the lifeline, the heart line, the headline." And um and I just want to find out what what these lines we should be looking at most in connection with the category you thought of. So, um underneath here, you're going to see all the different categories. Just tell me what lines yours is under. So, for example, if yours was adventure, is it under fate? Is it under life, heart, or head, or is it more of them? Tell me what one it's under. and they look at that and they tell you and then you give them a reading with that information. It all totally makes sense because you're learning and you're going, "Right, I've got Yeah. Yeah. So, I've got to look at the heart lifeline because they're not under all of them, but they may be under more than one." And then I do my reading and then I tell them the category that they've thought of as as a kind of added bonus, but is really because they're not expecting. Oh, right. It's great. So, I've done this a lot and I've really enjoyed it. Now, when Dave sent it to me, he there was a little note that said it's it involves maths. Don't hate me. And I thought, "Oh, I'm not going to be able to do it easy." I mean, with if it's easy, if I can do this without thinking about it much, it's really really would you're talking the first ever thing you learn in maths when you're 3 years old or less. So, you're fine. You nearly everybody I would be surprised if anybody can't do this. And there are different methods even if you can't do it because of the way it goes. You can even be counting on your fingers when they're not looking. So it's it's fine. It's you're going to be fine. So that's the kind of basic way of doing it. Now you can mix this with different mentalism presentations and there's a great sort of Zoom session with Dave and Alex Mackleier. Mccle Macier isn't it? Yeah, sorry. Mental block and that opens up a whole load of different things and discussions about different ways of doing this. And there's more videos on the download that you can that you'd be amazed that after you know using this um in the basic way, there's a lot more you can do with it if you want to go down that way. And I the name escapes me. I do apologize because I kind of know who he is anyway, but he talks to a someone that is a a palm reader that does a lot of palm reading as well as magic and mentalism and um and he gives you a kind of almost like a little crash course on palistry. So, I've really enjoyed it and I found it surprisingly easy once I'm looking at their palm to link, you know, what their now I know the category to kind of link what I can see to that category. It's a bit like, you know, I remember um uh Peter Antonio, you know, teaching tarot readings and and his thing is, you know, after a while, yes, you go and research and learn what they all mean, but actually, if you just say what you see in a certain way and practice that, you'd be surprised at how much you come up with by looking at a tarot code and it's same sort of thing. I love the thing of saying I'm learning. So it completely gets you off the y, you know, you can you can sort of be going, you do all that and it it's great and it makes total sense. It looks like a palm tree learning card. Loads more to say about it probably, but I don't want to because I think it's it's way worth it. It's something you can have in your I have got it in my wallet all the time. I don't do it loads and loads, but when I you know, with certain people, I go, "This will be fun." Um, and I wouldn't I'd be quite happy to do this before I started going into the more kind of full-on mentalism stuff to kind of ease ease myself into it. [snorts] Uh, and it's great.
