Watch the pilot episode of "Two Magicians Walk Into a Bar" with Michael Dardant and Eric Leclerc.
From the October 21st Facebook post by the International Brotherhood of Magicians:
Two Magicians Walk Into a Bar - on this episode of Something Up My Sleeve
A production of Neutral Ground Films, hosted by comedian and magician Michael Dardant, filmed on location in New Orleans. Picture "Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee" style, but talking shop with world class magicians and instead of a café, we hit the coolest spots in The Big Easy and sample the world's best crafted cocktails! It's "Wizards on Wheels Getting Wasted"... wait, um.... ok, I'm just learning that we are changing the name to "Two Magicians Walk Into a Bar"! ...now it just sounds like a joke. Anyway, the pilot episode featuring the crazy antics of Canadian, Eric Leclerc was created just in time to start pitching the show right before Covid. So, then the world ended and here we are... with this fun episode that yearns to be many more fun episodes!
Watch the video on Facebook. (Starts around the 5 min mark.)

From the Montreal Magic Jam event Eric Leclerc Conférence:
Après avoir brillamment mystifié Penn & Teller et été la vedette d’une série sur Netflix, Éric Leclerc débarque à MONTRÉAL avec sa magie… et son chaos parfaitement dosé!
Ce magicien canadien survolté présente une toute nouvelle conférence pleine de matériel inédit, absurde, hilarant — et surtout, conçu pour fonctionner dans le monde réel.
Que vous présentiez de la magie devant des enfants ou des adultes, Éric a quelque chose de percutant à partager. Attendez-vous à des tours utilisant des pailles, des sous-vêtements, des desserts, des substances douteuses (rassurez-vous, tout est presque légal), et même le souffle humain!
From the James Harrison Lecture:
James Harrison is a pickpocket magician and security consultant who has turned his uncanny sleight-of-hand skills into a tool for awareness and defense. With a background in street magic and the art of misdirection, he now exposes the tricks of thieves by demonstrating live pickpocketing techniques at major security conferences, including NorthSec (Montreal), BSides (Florida), SecT (Sweden), and DefCon (Vegas) —where audiences watch in awe as wallets, phones, and even neckties vanish without a trace. His engaging talks blend entertainment with real-world security insights, teaching professionals how to spot and stop theft before it happens. Whether baffling crowds with his magic or arming them with anti-theft tactics, James proves that the best defense is knowing the thief’s playbook.
The Lecture will be two parts.

From the June 17th Instagram post by Eric Leclerc:
This baby just came in the mail!!! I feel honoured and appreciative to have won Faces Magazine’s comedian of the year 2024. As magicians, we always get a bad rap from comedians because of our use of props on stage. I always thought it was such a silly metric to judge one’s level of funniness. A laugh is a laugh is it not? Well who’s laughing now?! 🏆 Thanks to everyone who voted and has come to see my comedy magic show SMOKUS POCUS in the last 2 years. It’s because of you. Merci! 🔴
