Craig Petty is Back with New Reviews and Rants

Postby Zig Zagger » April 15th, 2017, 5:58 pm

Mr Petty, the louder half of Penn & Petty of former "Wizard Product Review" fame, is back with a new low-tech one-man talk labeled "Nothing But the Truth." It is announced to appear at irregular intervals.

Episode 1 is a critical review of Nicholas Einhorn's "Insta-Change" (vs. the TT bill switch).

Episode 2 is a passionate appeal not to take bookings for gigs you are simply not prepared for.

Both episodes run about 9 minutes each. I enjoyed them, even though they seemed a bit repetitive to me after the first few minutes. Only that fluffy, barking sidekick was sorely missed. Oh, and Blammo.

I wish Craig and David Penn still did the Wizard Product Review together. They had a brilliant chemistry. They were both very smart about magic, but in different ways that complimented each other.

Yes, I agree... I miss that show as well with those guys. Recently listened to a podcast where Craig discussed what happened.
