There may be no one alive who saw Houdini perform magic. Yet we still know his name and his legend. Dua Lipa namechecked the escape artist in a 2023 dance hit and she's not alone. Houdini is still a cultural reference point, despite having died 100 years ago. And that’s pretty much what he would have wanted. IDEAS explores why his name persists in our imaginations and how his magic helped his family escape poverty.


Guests in this episode:


Adam Begley is a biographer living in London, and author of Houdini: The Elusive American.


David Ben is a conjuror, writer, and consultant in Toronto. He’s writing a graphic novel featuring an imagined adventure for Houdini.


Katie Bender is a playwright and actor. Her interactive performance about Houdini is called Instructions for a Seance.
