350: Hammer Time with Mike Hammer

[Scott Wells]

Insult comic magician, Mike Hammer, talks about how he developed his on-stage character that has packed audiences into his showroom at the Four Queens Casino in downtown Las Vegas for years. Many people return time after time to see/hear/enjoy this very funny man and wonder "what is he going to say to someone tonight?"

Mike's comedy magic show is just that. While others tout the title, I believe that Mike delivers comedy and magic in disproportionate measure without dancing showgirls and flashy illusions. His character is what shines through, though his style certainly isn't for everyone.

You can watch a video of his performance on "Penn & Teller Fool Us", see some photos, read the blog, listen to the podcast online and download the MP3 file at: https://www.themagicwordpodcast.com/sco ... ike-hammer
