QRAD FM Radio: Primetime with Phil Landry

Phil Landry: Hey ho hip hey! I'm here with Marcus Marcus, world-famous magician and illusionist. Mr. Marcus was kind enough to come on our show before he performs tonight at the United Nations. Mr. Marcus, before we get to the magic, what's it like performing for the most powerful people in the world?

Marcus Marcus: Well I haven't performed in front of a self-portal--what you know as a "mirror"--so I wouldn't know.

PL: Haha, fair enough Mr. Marcus. How did you get your start in this field?

MM: On the thirteenth anniversary of my entrance into this realm, I participated in a spiritual ceremony that filled me with powers I had until then only dreamed of.

PL: You were bar-mitzvahed?

MM: That's right.

PL: Now, one more thing before you demonstrate your craft--you've gone on record saying that you use no gadgetry or props when you perform.

MM: Only these.

PL: For our listeners, Mr. Marcus is holding up his hands.

MM: They can open doors--

PL: Of course they can Mr.--

MM: --to other worlds.

PL: Oh... I see. Well shall we get started?

MM: Yes, let's. Here, take this 19th century French Sabre.

PL: Oh wow, what a beauty.

MM: Now cut my hand off.

PL: Haha, I don't think so Mr. Marcus.

MM: Cut it off, Phil Landry. Cut my hand off with the sword.

PL: No no, I couldn't possibly-

MM: There is fear in your heart, I can tell.

PL: Haha, just fear of a lawsuit Mr. Marcus. And maiming you.

MM: Cut it off now!

PL: Alright, alright! Here I go... DEAR GOD! This is unbelievable! Folks, I can barely believe my eyes, but I'm now holding Mr. Marcus hand, and the sword is where is hand should be!

MM: Oh jeez, oh no.

PL: What? Man, this is unreal!

MM: Sweet mercy this is really not what I meant to do.

PL: Oh wow, wow! Now the hand is running around the room! How'd you do that?!

MM: No Phil Landry! This is all wrong! It was a fake hand and you were supposed to cut it off! This is really, really bad.

PL: All I can say is bravo, Mr. Marcus. Bravo. I just wish our listeners at home could have seen this. I mean wow. Nuts.

MM: It hurts so much, Phil Landry. It hurts where the sword is coming out of my wrist.

PL: Haha, you're too much Mr. Marcus. Thanks for coming on the show.

MM: Oh great, my hand just ran into a paper shredder. I'm not even sure why you need a paper shredder in a radio studio. Fuck.
