Jeff Stone's 2024 Lecture Notes by Jeff Stone

A fresh year brings a fresh batch of lecture notes from Jeff Stone. Get ready to explore 14 effects and ideas that span the spectrum from cheeky gags to jaw-dropping stunts, and let’s not forget the mind-boggling visual magic. Everything packed in these notes has been part of Jeff's act for yonks — some of it for over twenty years (yes, really!).

You’ll also gain access to over a dozen video clips to mimic that in-person lecture vibe, plus a treasure trove of QR codes and nearly 50 footnotes to keep your curiosity piqued and your history buffs satisfied.

So, let’s take a virtual trip to the 2024 Stone Cold Lecture, shall we?

Extra Sensory Perception
One of my absolute favs when it comes to “real” ESP effects — it gives your spectator genuine power (and who doesn’t want that?).

Poker Bill
A finale that leaves spectators with a lucky charm and actual cash! (No, you can't pay your rent with it, but still...)

Elastic Sensory Perception
If your mentalism's looking a bit bland, this is your ticket to spicing things up.

Burnin' Time
Fire, time travel, and borrowed items — what's not to adore?

The Luck of the Balducci
After the spectator shuffles the deck, they find their lucky card, and voilà! A winning poker hand magically appears face up in the middle of the deck.

The Coolest Ace Trick in the World
This gem has been in my repertoire since the late 90s! Witness an instant transformation of four aces into four kings — trust me, it’s cerebral.

Gemini Shopping
A playful game where spectators get to spend pretend foreign currency while you predict exactly what they’ll buy (because why not?).

What's The Deal With The Down Under Deal?
Giving an odd procedure some much-needed meaning.

Encyclopedia of Crayon Magic
A nifty little idea for blending magic from one genre into another.

Premature Pop
Build tension and release it with a balloon and a cheeky little secret.

S.A.T.O. / Strange Voyage
An unsuspecting spectator decides to butt in during your cards across routine (how rude!).

SARDEEN Opener
My never-before-seen go-to opener — because I’m generous like that.

Snappy BIC
Another unpublished gem. Fun, impromptu, and super visual — all with a borrowed BIC pen (don’t worry, it’s not yours!).

Stone Cold Color Change
Wave a fan of cards over the deck, and BAM! The card on the face changes — pure magic!
