- Everybody!
Alright!
Day 21!
Three weeks!
Boom!
I did it.
I'm doing it.
I made it happen!
I can't believe it!
Uh, thanks for all the video
ideas I've been getting.
I'm not gonna get to them all this month,
but I will get to them.
Just not this month probably.
Okay, tonight. What am I doing tonight?
What am I doing?
Wes what are you doing tonight?
Good question, I'm glad you asked.
Tonight I am going to go around
to a bar and do a magic trick.
Not just any magic trick.
I'm going to do the magic
trick that got me into magic.
When I was 19, I saw David Blaine
do this trick in one of his specials
and I thought, I'm gonna be a magician.
So, watch the first trick that made me
fall in love with magic to the point
that I needed to start learning it.
That's what's happening tonight.
