Jessica Jane was born into a family of magicians. Some would say she was already destined to become a magician herself, but she has relentlessly worked on her craft as if nothing in her life has ever been promised.

In this episode, Jessica and I talk about her wildly entertaining childhood, stories from our times on ships together, and reveal our fail-proof plan for an alternative vacation expedition vehicle to cruise ships while we wait for the industry to return!
