  • NATW Podcast: Oz Pearlman Avoids The Answers
    May 26 2026

    Oz Pearlman sits across from a room of skeptics who do not buy any of it. So they ask him straight questions. And that is where Jack Fox catches him out.

    In this episode Jack exposes Oz Pearlman through the one thing he cannot hide: the words he reaches for when he's doubted. Ask him a flat yes or no about gimmicks and you will hear him answer with a story about a Fourth of July party instead. Ask him whether he handled the books beforehand and you will hear the question quietly go unanswered. Watch him insist he has no idea whose books they are, moments after telling everyone he asked for them. Small words. Big tells. Once Jack points them out you cannot unhear them.

    Huge thanks to Pablo Torres and Stevie Baskin, whose YouTube video put this whole story on our radar. Go watch their work.

    Watch to the end and you will never hear someone dodge a simple question the same way again.
