The Ad Copy
Lee Hathaway (Fool Us Winner, S1) and Paul Martin (Pro Magic Academy) are two of the UK’s most in-demand magicians. As such, they know exactly what lands with real audiences and this latest collaboration is a direct result of that experience.
Lifelong fans of the tossed-out deck plot, they’ve fused it with the world’s most popular adult party game (Cards Against Humanity) to create a stand-up routine that is both deceptively strong and consistently hilarious.
Three question cards are peeked at. Three answer cards are peeked at. You then proceed to read the minds of your audience and match them up in the most unexpected and laugh-out-loud way possible. Built on the philosophy that a ‘card trick that doesn’t feel like a card trick’ is far more entertaining, this routine hits hard and keeps the laughs rolling throughout.
You’ll receive everything you need to turn any Cards Against Humanity set into ten minutes of comedy mentalism gold, including a cleverly engineered gimmick that eliminates awkward deck switches entirely. And if you want to push it further, you can easily create your own custom cards and gags to make the routine uniquely yours.
This is the kind of thinking, structure, and real-world practicality that only comes from seasoned performers. It’s commercial, it’s hard-hitting, and most importantly, it’s built to absolutely destroy in front of a live audience.
Jheff's Guide
WHAT IT IS:
A faux version of Cards Against Humanity that allows one to read the minds of six people.
HOW ACCURATE OR COMPLETE THE AD COPY IS:
It’s mostly accurate, except for leaving out that you’ll need to make a purchase to use this, though you may already have what you need.
WHAT’S NOT INCLUDED THAT YOU NEED OR NEED TO KNOW:
Unless you already have one that you can use, you will need to obtain a Cards Against Humanity game so that you can have normal cards and, more importantly, the box. You can customize the questions and answers, but then you may have to obtain blank cards.
SETUP AND RESET:
The initial one-time setup requires choosing the specific Cards Against Humanity that you want to use for the routine. The reset is negligible, though it takes only a few seconds and should be done out of the audience’s view. This isn’t a problem, as this is not a walk-around or close-up routine.
ANGLES:
There is a slight angle issue in that you want participants to stand in such a way that only they can see what’s on the cards, but it is not crucial.
SUITABLE VENUES:
Parlor, Stage
JHEFF’S JUDGMENT:
If you’ve ever wanted to perform a version of the Tossed‑Out Deck using Cards Against Humanity, this gives you everything you need without having to buy multiple sets of the game. The included 3D‑printed gimmick allows for a very clean deck switch and lets participants handle and shuffle both the white and black cards freely. For those who’d like to perform a tossed‑out deck with a more adult theme, this is definitely recommended.
