Unlimited Studio Live with Alexander Marsh
If you’ve spent any time exploring modern mentalism, the name Alexander Marsh will likely be familiar. A long-time professional performer and touring mentalist, Alex has spent years refining powerful, practical methods for reading minds under real-world conditions. From touring internationally with stage shows to releasing deep dives on billet work, he’s built a reputation for smart thinking and deceptively simple methods. So when he joins us for a Studio Live Lecture, you know you’re in for something special.
In Everyday Mentalism, Alexander focuses on a concept every performer should have in their arsenal: what to do when you’re put on the spot. No elaborate props. No complicated setups. Just strong mentalism using the kind of items you genuinely carry with you every day. He begins with a beautifully structured drawing duplication using nothing more than a wallet and a billet. A simple sketch becomes the starting point for layered revelations, psychological subtleties, and a routine that feels impossibly fair. From there, Alex dives into his thinking on everyday carry mentalism, explaining how the right tools, like a working wallet and a few simple billets, can turn spontaneous moments into powerful demonstrations of mind reading.
Things then move deeper into Alex’s speciality: billet work. He breaks down his approach to a streamlined peek system and demonstrates how a single folded billet can unlock an astonishing range of possibilities. A spectator freely thinks of a person, place, or object, and what begins as a casual thought experiment quickly develops into a series of increasingly precise revelations. Along the way, Alex shares the subtleties that elevate the effect, from psychological letter reveals to the small performance choices that make the process feel like genuine mind reading.
But this lecture isn’t just about methods. Throughout the session, Alexander dives into the theory behind strong mentalism: how to structure revelations, how to guide spectators’ assumptions, and how to create the illusion of a genuine mind-reading process rather than a simple trick. You’ll learn why process matters, how to turn minimal information into layered revelations, and how to perform mentalism that feels organic and completely impromptu.
This is practical, real-world mentalism designed for those moments when someone says, “Go on then… read my mind.” Smart thinking. Powerful subtleties. And methods you’ll actually carry with you.
If you want mentalism that’s simple to perform, deeply deceptive, and always ready when you need it, Alexander Marsh’s Everyday Mentalism Studio Live Lecture delivers exactly that.

Unlimited Studio Live with Adam Dadswell
If you’ve been around Alakazam Unlimited for a while, the name Adam Dadswell won’t be new to you. He was one of the very first creators to bring exclusive, commercial material to the platform, and trust us, his effects left an impression. Remembering Three, Synchronicity, Here & There, and Startling weren’t just great routines... they fooled the entire Alakazam team when we filmed them in a little London theatre. So naturally, we couldn’t wait to get him back in front of the camera.
He kicks things off with a killer multiphase transpo that turns a common item in your magic drawer into something devastatingly deceptive. Then comes a four-of-a-kind routine that plays like pure coincidence, but actually has an incredibly clever structure. Then it gets crazy! Adam puts the spectator in the spotlight with a razor blade roulette that’s as clever as it is commercial. The method? Sneaky. The possibilities? Endless. And he’s not done yet. A seemingly impossible card prediction unfolds with total fairness, only to end with a reveal that no one sees coming. He follows up with another four-of-a-kind effect where the spectator unknowingly finds the final card... right in their own hands. To wrap it up, Adam shares his approach to the “two way out” concept, and shows how this simple technique can be turned into something truly powerful across your routines. This is real-world magic. Smart. Practical. Deceptive. And made to hit hard.
Whether you're a worker, a thinker, or just someone who loves powerful magic, Adam's Studio Live is one you won’t want to miss.
Unlimited Studio Live with Daniel Chard
Welcome to Daniel Chards’ first Studio Live lecture! If you haven’t been exposed to Daniel’s magic before, we are thrilled to introduce you to this underground legend of card magic! In this Studio Live, Daniel helps us to find strong, hard-hitting and incredibly commercial magic with a normal shuffled deck.
We’ve all been in the situation where someone hands us a deck of cards and asks us to show them something. But what are the best routines to choose? Well, Daniel has a ton of incredible card routines from “Lie Detector” routines, incredible “Kick Back” routines and a bonus “Colour Changing Deck” routine that, whilst it deviates from the ‘Hand me a deck of cards’ premise of the lecture, is an absolute powerhouse routine that has aspects of a full deck colour change but also a built-in packet trick.
If you want to learn some hard-hitting, shuffled deck-in-use routines from one of the best card workers in the UK, then sit back, grab a deck of cards and prepare to learn some incredible magic.
Unlimited Studio Live with Simon Lipkin
In the first ever Unlimited Studio Live, Simon brings his A-game with an incredible collection of hard hitting, practical mentalism! Simon delves into one of the cleanest 3-billet tests we've ever seen and includes a devious forcing method which alone is worth watching! Then, he will teach you an incredible 'holiday routine' which is like a multi-layered in the hands chair test. It's an incredibly clever mix of methods to create a truly show stopping routine that would easily upscale to a parlour show. Simon then teaches an incredible routine which focuses on his super clever marking system which will let your imagination run wild! Finally, he finished off this incredible live lecture with a multi phased routine based on movies that takes a classic plot and makes it play HUGE! The perfect commercial routine for walk around or even parlour!
Unlimited Studio Live 2 with Simon Lipkin
In Simon’s second Studio Live Lecture, he delivers a powerhouse of mind-blowing, hard-hitting routines perfect for close-up, parlour, or even adaptable to stage! True to his bold style, Simon starts with a bang! A routine where a collection of childhood birthday cards generate random numbers chosen by the audience, leading to an unbelievable coincidence!
Next, using everyday items from a gift shop or supermarket, Simon presents a multi-phase piece of mentalism that’s as clever as it is entertaining. Then, in a jaw-dropping close-up piece, Simon has a participant write down the name of their celebrity crush and hold the card tightly in their hand. Moments later, he not only reveals the name without ever seeing it, but also magically transfers burn marks from his card to theirs, making the name on their card completely vanish! (The method here is so cheeky but incredibly fun!)
Simon also stuns us with a multi-reveal envelope test, a hybrid of “Bank Night,” “Kurotsuke,” and a “Chair Test.” Bills are sealed, shuffled, and freely numbered by the audience, yet Simon accurately detects which envelope holds the high-value bill. But that’s not all! He predicts the exact reveal order, and in the grand finale, a photo of a jar of sweets displays the exact number sequence the spectator unknowingly created! This routine is an ingenious blend of methods, orchestrated into a magical masterpiece.
Finally, Simon unveils one of the boldest, most brilliant book test methods we’ve ever seen. Once you discover the secret, it’ll leave you grinning from ear to ear! This is a must-watch lecture packed with incredible methods, engaging premises, and expert presentation. Don’t miss it!
