Magician Hans Klok, Gadget Guru - RoboMower
Our reporter Ingrid Koning talked to Dutch magician Hans Klok just before his show in Basel last week. Klok is billed as "The World's Fastest Illusionist", known for his fast-paced and entertaining shows. He started out as a teenager, quickly winning championships and prizes. Las Vegas beckoned in the noughties, where Klok did a run of shows with Pamela Anderson as his assistant. He now tours the world - if you missed the Basel show, you can still catch him at the Hallenstadion Zurich with his "House of Mystery" show on Wednesday, 28th March. Klok talked to Ingrid about the demands, dangers and joys of being a magician. Listen to the interview here.
Well, spring is here (apparently), and so Ian the Gadget Guru turns his mind to the outdoors. One of his favorite gadgets is the RoboMower - now if only he had a lawn big enough. He also talks about the new Gameball from Play Impossible. Listen to the segment again here.
