Talk Radio is a play about a late night radio host, Barry Champlain, who has always been controversial and who is also about to expand his popular talk show from Cleveland to move it to a broader nationwide audience. One night, he faces several callers who make him reveal his true feelings live on air. He is known to be abusive and insulting to his callers, and that is what makes him so popular. There are callers waiting in line to speak to him on air because they want to hear his scathing words and insults. He invites listeners to call him and to tell him what is troubling them, and then he deals with them in a cold and derisive careless manner.
On the show he has to deal with all types of callers such as those who tell him that they are afraid of a garbage disposal, or talk to him about the surgeries they have had, or even one case when a caller is trying to wake up his girlfriend and thinks she is dead. Champlain deals with them all with his sharp tongue and scathing words. Based on his show ratings, his sponsors want to broadcast his show nationwide. This does not please Champlain though and he gets even worse and more perverse on air which scares the sponsors. And when he is asked to tone it down, he gets devastatingly abusive on his show egging his audience to give him their “best shot”.
How The Trick Is Done
This a great mind reading trick and the secret is so subtle, no one will ever guess the method used. Take each matchbook and push the flap of each book in really firmly behind the striking surface. You will find that when a spectator opens a matchbook and tears out a match, he will not push the flap in as tightly as you did. This is the main secret of the trick.
Ask the spectator to look at the cards in each pile and tell you which pile his card is in. Once he has found it, ask him to place the pile in his pocket.
Tell him that he mentally selected a card and there is no possible way that you could know which card he is thinking of. Rub your fingers together and then touch his brow with your first finger. Tell him you are trying to pick up a mental vibration about his card.
Reach into his pocket and pull out one car without looking at it. Toss it on to the table and tell him that is not his card. Reach into his pocket again and pull out another card. Throw that card on to the table and say it is not his card. Finally, pull out the third card and tell him “This is the card you are thinking of”. You are correct.

Tickets for Talk Radio are available from the box office at Longacre Theater. You could also order tickets on the phone or online. Considering that the play has a it has a limited run planned, it will be difficult to get tickets but if you book in advance then you can avoid being disappointed. A weekday show would probably be easier to get tickets for than a weekend
