BGT, Tour, Blackpool… What’s Next?

Last couple of years have been a bit mad. I quit my job, got 250 million views online, went on BGT, made a live show, toured it around the UK, wrote a book for magicians, headlined the biggest magic convention in the world and now I’m releasing a special. 

Oh, and I became a Dad. 

That shouldn’t really be an afterthought should it.

Well, in between all this mad stuff I’ve had the pleasure of sitting down a few times with Steve Faulkner. Steve is a magician himself and runs a podcast where he chats with creatives (yes, that’s what I’m calling myself now... deal with it) to talk about… well, all sorts really.

Here’s a quick snippet:

Now if that’s your sort of thing then great, there’s a full ninety minute podcast breaking down all this stuff that you can listen to for free!

Yes, my screen does need a clean. Thanks for noticing.

This is the third time on Steve's pod and it feels like every time I'm on it there's been some sort of life-changing thing happening. In fact, that even gets mentioned in the write-up:

'Every time Jack Rhodes sits down with me, something seismic has happened. First podcast he was on a career break wondering if he should quit his engineering job. Second time he'd just done BGT and was about to become a dad. This time he's a dad, he's finished a full UK tour, he's headlined the Opera House at Blackpool in front of 3,000 people twice in one night, and he's independently written, performed, directed and edited his own special, which comes out on YouTube on the 17th of July.'

Here's the link to the pod if you fancy 90 mins of my dulcet tones:

In the meantime, I'm busy getting all my ducks in a row for the release of the special on 17th July. I'm also working on a new video essay thingy-ma-bob for YouTube that will go out just before. Keep your eyes peeled for that as it could be a slightly controversial one...

In a bit.
