Little tips like the absolutely brilliant Flydini act Martin did in the last week of the Tonight Show being put together by himself and his buddy Ricky Jay make it a most enjoyable interview.
It's been a long time since I've seen the Flydini act, and I forgot just how far above most comedy magic it was then, and still is today.

The snippets of memories Steve has of working the magic shop in Disneyland speak strongly to how big a part magic played in his career and his life.
