“Joe Diamond is a living legend. He is everything that is right with magic!” -Brian Brushwood

“Joe Diamond is dedicated to the art of mentalism, he’s a top flight performer, he studies and cares about mentalism, and he also willingly shares his time with others who could benefit from his guidance.” -Ken Weber

“As a guest on Joe Diamond’s weekly radio show years ago I saw first-hand how well he engages the listeners. He knows how to script and stage compelling magical presentations over the air. In the years since I’ve heard dozens of clips of his own appearances on other people’s shows. He nails it every single time. When it comes to performing on the medium of radio, or using radio for promotion, Joe is the first I go to. You can’t go wrong with his material and insight.” –Christopher Carter

“Joe Diamond is a highly-experienced working mentalist, and all of his effects are entertaining and thoroughly audience-tested. I’d happily buy anything he produces sight-unseen, as I know it will make me money.” -Richard Webster

“I have personally used many of Joe Diamonds ideas in my own shows to great success and I have seen other performers that I admire delight audiences again and again using his creations. Joe Diamond creates solid working material for Mentalists that are sure to become some of your favorite pieces.” -Paul Draper

“Joe, I promise you bend spoons better than I do” -Uri Geller

“I really admire Joe’s work for evaluating effects based on how much of yourself you can put into them. More magicians need to think along these lines.” -Jay Sankey

“In all my years in magic, Joe Diamond is the best I’ve ever seen!” -Marshall Brodien
