By Keith Fusco 
What’s up everybody and welcome to Magic For Beginners, my name is Keith and in today’s videos, we’re going to be talking about YouTube magic and I’m going to be sharing my top 15 magic related channels which you need to be watching in 2025 and beyond! The list isn’t going to be in order of which is from worst to best, but I’ll be doing it in alphabetical order, just to make it a bit more fair. If you think I’ve left some one off the list, then please let me know in the comments, but let’s get started!
There’s hundreds of channels I’m subscribed to and would love include them all, but these are channels which have recent or fairly recent uploads, so I know they’re an active channel which means they’ll hopefully be putting out content in 2025, which this video is aimed at. And on that, before we start I’ll throw in some notable mention’s because there’s far too many channels that I watch to try and whittle it down to top 10, so this is a way out of being able to do that, again in alphabetical order.
All links for the channels are in the description of this video too.
EverythingMagicPro
I’m starting the notable mentions list on a bit of a controversial one and this is EverythingMagicPro aka Scott Perry. While there’s been some issues in the past with Scott and creators of magic, I think his review channel is a handy channel to watch for magic trick releases to get an insight onto the trick. He’s recently been delving into podcast style interviews too, so worth a check out.

Magic Uncut
Another notable mention is Magic Uncut which is a channel that features magic tricks performed in one take with no cuts and it’s a fantastic channel to watch if you’ve wanted to see a magic trick performed in full, as sometimes trailers don’t allow this due to the length it would take. Graham is quite local to me too so that’s always a bonus and the channel has just smashed 1.000 subscribers too, so well done!

The Magic Guys
I’d love to have this in the top 15 list, but due to me listening to them on Podcasts rather than YouTube, this slipped the net, but don’t let that put you off. Josh, Doug and Nick are fantastic hosts and the podcasts are full of magicians who give some amazing information and always a welcome addition to a long drive. They live stream the podcast on YouTube so people can get involved too, but I always seem to miss it, but one to check out!

Let’s get down to business now and into my top 15 YouTube channels for you to watch in 2025 and beyond. Remember these are in alphabetical order and not in order of worst to best.
Alakazam
First up we have the Nardi’s from Alakazam Magic UK and their YouTube channel which has a bunch of different things on there from magic trick trailers, a review show, the impromptu act videos where they choose a bunch of things to create an act such as parlour act with no coins for under £75 or an act with no mentalism for £100. For me, the thing I love about this channel is something I don’t actually watch on YouTube, but its their Desert Island Tricks and Stranded With a Stranger podcasts which I listen to all of them in the car, so give them a check out.

BigBlindMedia
Next up we have BigBlindMedia and over time I’ve had some magic tricks from them such as Liam Montier’s Spell-O-Matic trick, but I discovered their YouTube channel just over a year ago and I’m super impressed by it and thought that the videos would have more views and they’d have more subscribers as the content is amazing and very informative. There’s a series of 7 videos, in that there’s 7 different ways to do a colour change, 7 different card at any numbers, 7 ways to mark playing cards, 7 ways to peek a playing card and so much more. I can’t wait to see this channel blow up and expand more and more.

Cavan Booth
The next channel is the one and only Cavan Booth. If you’re into something more magic entertainment related then Cavan is a channel for you. He buys magic tricks from dodgy sites to see how they are, talks current happenings in magic and much more. When I don’t know what to watch on YouTube as I just want to chill out, Cavan is usually a go to for magic stuff, as it’s an easy watch and fun to watch too. The camera he uses to film on is one that I use for additional angles at weddings too, which is an interesting fact!

Craig Petty’s Magic TV
Next up is the content creator machine Craig Petty and his Magic TV. If you’re looking for something new to watch every day then Craig is the man for that. There’s general magic knowledge videos, full performances, magic talks with magicians (which is something that I usually listen to on Podcasts than YouTube too) and so much more. There’s a review show with his son Ryland too and he’s started to do a magic new show too, which is something I contemplated with on my return to YouTube, but I think he’s got that sorted for now! He’s producing lots of magic and lots of videos, so if that’s something you’re into then check out his channel.

Daniel Madison
Daniel Madison; Since getting into magic, Daniel’s channel has been in my subscription feed and for a good reason as he used to produce an insane amount of tutorials and I learnt so much magic from there. The tutorials are less frequent now, but he’s still creating content so check him out if you haven’t already.

Jack Rhodes
Next up is my fellow gangly tall magician and that’s one who’s fooled Penn & Teller, got a golden buzzer on BGT, AGT and was the phantom on GBT too. Not to mention that he came second on BGT too and also released his own deck of cards which I bought with my own money and shall be on the channel as a review soon. Some of those facts may or may not be true and possibly green screen, but we’ll never know.
Jack started off doing comedy and entertaining videos about appearing on shows mentioned and when I saw them I loved them and subscribed. He’s accomplished so much on YouTube and in his life in general since then and is still knocking out those videos on YouTube. His magician vs slow motion camera videos are top notch and have been copied by a number of other YouTube channels I’ve found too which must mean he’s doing something right.

Lloyd Barnes
From a Yorkshire man, we go to a Welsh man and that’s Lloyd Barnes. His channel has a lot of magic tutorials for creations that he’s come up with and show a performance and then a tutorial of how to do the trick and has a bunch of other videos such as the wife test where he tests magic tricks against his wife Kayleigh. He’s also been knocking out the shorts too so if you’re into that too, check him out.

Magicorthodoxy
The one and only YouTube OG magic reviewer is David at MagicOrthodoxy is up next. Again, since getting into magic, I saw him all over YouTube and it goes to show you that you don’t need any fancy set like I do to make videos, just a white sheet and a camera, as it’s all about the information in the videos. David does magic reviews, playing card reviews and is always one to watch if you’re interested in a trick to get the full low down of if the trick is right for you. Who doesn’t love David?!
https://www.youtube.com/@magicorthodoxy
Before we head on with the next channel, I just wanted to drop a quick plug about this channel we’re on now and ask that if you’re enjoying the video then to drop a subscribe to the channel if you haven’t already, as it’ll really help it grow and even give this video a like if you’ve enjoyed it too.
Murphy’s Magic
Let’s get back to the video and this one is my bearded friend Beau Creamer on Murphy’s Magic YouTube. There’s a bunch of magic trailers, full performances of magic tricks, tutorials and my favourite video on the channel is the what’s new this week video as it gives you the run down of the latest magic, some tricks you have forgot about and even competitions which I’ve entered and some too, so that’s always good!
This is another channel which Beau just has a great presenting quality and the videos are easy to watch and something you can just put on and chill out watching and of course that beard, it makes me jealous!

Pigcake
Say hello to my little friend; Pigcake. I first watched his channel when he was just hands on a camera and look at what he’s developed into! He’s a magic creator, tutorial maker and overall little master… You know what comes after that. His online presence may seem too rude and crude for some people, but beyond that his magic knowledge is second to none. There’s so much knowledge in that head of his and it shows in his tutorials and that’s why I love the channel. There’s a bunch of other things where he reacts to viral videos, debunks psychics and of course the regular Pigcaast which I try and join when I can. If you want to learn magic then little piggy is definitely one to watch.

RavnMagic
Next up we have Caroline Ravn, or I do believe in Sweden it’s pronounced Raa-ven I think I heard once and she’s a female magician from Stockholm and her channel is mainly aimed at the business of magic now and there’s some fantastic bits on there. Even from a non magic perspective if you have a business and want to improve, then there’ll be something there to help you with that. This is another under-rated channel where I think there should be more views on each video she uploads, so hopefully that’ll happen in 2025 for her!
https://www.youtube.com/@ravnmagic
Real Magic Review
Next up we have Steve Faulkner and Real Magic Review which as you have guessed, it’s a review channel. There’s also some other videos thrown in there for good measure too which covers musings from Steve about tips when learning from magic books, practice with magic and other things. Steve’s reviews are thorough and always a good watch when you’re interested in a trick to get his thoughts on it. He also has an online magic course too!
https://www.youtube.com/@RealMagicReview
The Hobbyist
The next person is a fairly recent and new YouTuber and that is The Hobbyist. I’ve known him for a while from Instagram and he’s took over to YouTube to upload videos and I actually got a sneak preview of some videos he shot before they were uploaded and just knew they were going to perform well on that platform. He has tutorials which have also appeared on the Murphys Magic YouTube channel, videos about magicians and magic and so much more.

Tyler Lunsford Magic
Second off last and by no means reflected by his content is the cowboy magician Tyler Lunsford. He was a frequent uploader on YouTube and shot a bunch of reviews on things from books to magic tricks and also shot a bunch of Blackpool magic convention videos too. I got to meet him two years ago there and was hoping again this year so I could get him on the channel doing stuff, but he’s not there unfortunately. He’d been tied up with doing work for a magic company which meant his YouTube uploads took a back seat, but he uploaded the other month so I’m excited to see what’s planned for 2025 for him!
https://www.youtube.com/@TylerLunsfordMagic
Wes Barker
And last but by no means least, it’s the second to none magician himself; Wes Barker. I found Wes from Chris Ramsay’s videos and his lovely subscribe to Wes plugs that he used to do on there and I of course subscribed to him and I’m glad that I did. Also known as the stunt magician, he has a bunch of funny magic tricks, sketches and much more like bar bets and recently he’s been showing off his magic hole. Where it’s comedians trying magic tricks. He’s fooled Penn & Teller, has his own decks of cards and he’s an all round funny guy, so if you love to laugh then Wes is one for you!
https://www.youtube.com/@WesBarker
This of course is by no means a definitive list of YouTube channels to watch, as there’s so many more like Ash Marlow, Steven Bridges has a fantastic channel which he does card counting at casino’s, I love me some Peter Turner and his videos he uploads are great too, Jeremy Tan always knocks it out of the park, Sean Devine has beautiful videos and informative tutorials, Gareth Witty at Mentalist OAS does reviews of mentalist products which is always a good watch to be kept up to date on that side of magic. Jay Sankey, Scam Nation, Chris Edwards is another review channel, Brendan Rodrigues creates amazing videos too, Joel Dickinson has great videos and there’s so much more to list, so maybe I should create another video on these sometime?
So please drop a comment below on which channels you like to watch, as there’s probably channels out there which I haven’t seen before and I love being exposed to new YouTube channels, so I can add all their content to my watch later list and just chill and watch videos whenever I get the chance. But yeah, hope you enjoyed the video too and check out the video on the screen for something similar to this and until next time, see ya!screen for a similar video to this and until next time, see ya!
