Derren Brown is a fun find. He's pretty excellent without all the self-congratulatory annoyingness of a Copperfield or Blaine. Like Penn & Teller, he’s also out to debunk a lot of cons a la John Edwards. He has way too many pictures of himself on his website which suggests that he could develop one of those bizarrely overblown magician/con-man egos, but I am hopeful that he will avoid that dark and evil path. These nifty video clips have enough material in them to fill an entire season of Bullshit. Good stuff - especially for the anti-new age crowd.
