2020 was a year of change for all of us. A huge number of workers  pivoted to working from home. While the commute was nice, working from home also presented its challenges.

Magician Daniel Chan was the go-to entertainer for the Silicon Valley elite, performing at swanky corporate events and company parties for anywhere between $500 and $5,000.

But after the coronavirus and subsequent city shutdowns hit, large gatherings were banned, and Chan’s business was hit hard. And so Chan has had to get creative with how he makes a living and has pivoted to performing over Zoom.

He joins Adam to share how he took his magic act from the road to Zoom.
