April 29, 2026Josh was absolutely outstanding! He put on a great show and everyone thoroughly enjoyed his show and was utterly impressed by every aspect of his performance. He was very personable and even stuck around for a bit longer to chat with the guests. We’re still baffled by his skills!

December 14, 2025Josh Meador is an exceptional mentalist and magician. I hired him for a birthday party, where he performed a 60-minute show. During his act, he captivated every one of the 14 guests, delving into our minds to predict what we had seen in his acts. His performance included card tricks, images, and more (I won’t spoil anything 😊). Josh turned the celebration into a memorable event that we’ll discuss for years. I highly recommend him for any celebrations or special occasions.

May 2, 2022I was looking for a hypnotist for our after prom party. I was lucky enough to get Josh and he was great. The kids loved him and he had several that participated. We were very impressed with his performance and well worth the money. He also drove a very long distance to complete our evening. Thanks Josh for being a part of our night. Highly recommend.
