I'm afraid not.  You could try billing Madison for your time, but don't hold your breath...  :))

I thought he was going to light all those bricks on fire. That would have been entertaining.

This guy needs a life coach OR a real friend to stop him from turning his brand to $h!t.

when I skipped through the video, all I think was how weird he is now... compared to when he was with Theory11.

probably, it seems ellusionist kind of identifies itself with him. It could be easily his company, brad christian moved into the background somehow.

Brad was in the background all along - but he's still a part of it.  He doesn't produce his own videos anymore, but I was present for the "Stay Classy" video shoot - he was there as well as Madison and a handful of other magicians, many from the New York area.

Dont be fooled. Nothing happens at Ellusionist without Brad Christian pulling the strings. This video is not Ellusionist. Daniel is an employee of Ellusionist who has his own personal projects. Does Daniels qustionable social media content negatively impact Ellusionist, yes it does.

Brad does not need to be in front of the camera. Thats Brads business decision. He wants to connect with younger magicians looking to get better. Peter, Daniel and Adam do that.

There was a time when I did not know who Jonathan Bayme was until we started seeing more of him in front of the camera.

I was probably not clear, but yes, I agree on that.  I don't know if I'd call Madison an "employee," but he's certainly "talent under contract" in one way or another.

Sorry Don. I should have quoted the post to whom I was replying. Sounds like you and I are on the same page.
