- Matt Donnelly, The Mind Noodler makes his second attempt to fool his bosses on Penn & Teller Fool Us Season 10 Episode 15 "Dan Quayle Gets Shot By A T Shirt Cannon" where indeed I try to redeem my family's greatest shame by reenacting a historical event that may or may not have happened. (It didn't). He used Penn, Teller and Brooke Burke as volunteers.
Fun Fact: The T Shirt Cannon was made by Ryer Appeldorn. More fun facts about this and many other acts can be found on the Abracababble podcast.
More about Matt: Once named "Las Vegas's Best Up and Coming Comedy Magician" in The Las Vegas Journal Review. Matt began his career in magic working on Fool Us and was in fact dared by Penn Jillette to learn "one magic trick" when Matt was mouthing off about how many full time magicians there were. From the dare, Matt crowd funded a show call Hill Bill The Psychic Hillbilly where Matt learned 7 magic tricks taught to him by 7 magicians. The 7 magicians were, Johnny Thompson, Penn, Teller, Mac King, Brian Brushwood, Eric Dittelman and Piff The Magic Dragon. His show was directed by RJ Owens. Piff saw Matt's first show and invited him to be his opener when he played comedy clubs on tour. Matt toured with Piff for two years. From there, Matt has gone on to fill in for Mac King at his Excalibur Casino show. He has played The Magic Castle, Chicago Magic Lounge, Nashville's House of Cards and many other prestigious magic venues across North America.
Long before he ever thought of dipping his toes into magic, Matt crushed the Las Vegas comedy world. He played the Las Vegas strip alongside Wayne Brady in the smash-hit improv comedy show "Making It Up" at the Venetian, he played Christian Grey in the ridiculously funny "50 Shades the Parody" at Bally's, and he hosted the innovative and hilarious show, "Executive Monkeys" at The Palms. In New York City, Matt taught improv at the People's Improv Theatre and The New York Film Academy. He was a member of the notorious improv team, Neutrino at the Upright Citizen's Brigade Theater.
Matt co hosts three podcasts: a magic podcast called Abracababble, is most know for co hosting Matt and Mattingly's Ice Cream Social (heyscoops), and notably Penn Jillette's podcast, Penn Sunday School. - Komedie
Matt! What an amazing performance. It was hilarious - like all of Matt Donnelly's shows are. But it was also honestly a brilliant piece of magic.
And I have to say, I did *not* see where this was going, despite it being a very common trope of stage magic - the whole "person in box swaps with the magician thing. I actually kind of dislike that classic bit because it's so easy to anticpate - but here I honestly had no idea where this was going.
Really wonderful!
oh wow! thanks so much!
That a top class performance
Thank you so much!
SO AWESOME! And an honor to be on an episode with you. You're hilarious :)
aw! you killed as well🙌
@mattydchacer that was really cool. I wish the camera would have been on you though more. There were two important moments that I would have liked to have seen but really cool trick. I googled to see if Dan Quayle was shot by a t shirt cannon. Lol. I dont remember that at all. Too funny. Thank you.
I didn’t know I was in the presence of greatness!
I haven’t even made it to the trick yet and I’m in stitches. I don’t care if he doesn’t win. I’m here to be entertained.
that’s why I’m here too! thanks!
Have you ever made it rain on three male performers before!? Ha! Oh I am sure Penn's mind went somewhere on that laugh!🤣
it was an honest question 😂😅
pretty sure there is more letters and one less to "Penn" ;)
Ham days and Pigusus.... I'm in scoop heaven 🤣 Great performance Matt.
thanks my scoop!
@@mattydchacer Its great when they edit out the whole set up from the video!
Great performance! It's nice with Penn filling the crowd in on your relationship that it was fine for him to tongue in cheek razz you a bit more than other performances and still have it come off as fun.
Yes! Thank you!
You owned that stage Matt, well done 😂😂😂
thanks so much
This was hilarious! Not only a fun trick but loaded with laughs. Loved the inside references, too!
Thanks so much
Well, I rewatched and.. you fooled me.
So here it is.. 🎊 🏆 🎊
yay!! we did it!
Wonderful! Mega congrats!
“Great trick, Matt Donley, I see you everday, you fooled us, but I don’t think you fooled us.”
🤔🤔🤔
Matt I got to play the "Penn" role for this bit at the Cincinnati show this past weekend! You also did the best card stab I've ever seen (and I must have seen at least 3).
thanks so much, pal
Amazing performance Matt!
🐖🪽💨
Salt Pork! Go Matty Go! Loved this so much
Wonderfully silly and a darn good trick 👌
Oh wow, thanks so much!
Huge fan Matt, have listened to practically every Penn's Sunday School and Ice Cream Social. You are always a delight. Glad you're really making it in the magic scene.
thanks so much!
Now Brook, have you ever made it rain on 3 male performers before, 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
An honest question 😅
Great performance. Just minor thing but I think the head hole (is that the correct word?!) should be a bit wider on the red t shirt so when the blue t shirt is pulled over it you can’t see the red t shirt is still on.
yes. that adjustment was made when I performed it on The Foolers Tour
I remember the brainstorming session where you came up with this, I'm so glad you got it working, well done!
and it’s improved since then
Woo hoo! That was really fun, and love the bigger cannon. Kudos and congrats!
other props did not get enough attention 😂
@@mattydchacer Nor should they 🙌
This was just wonderful
thank you so much!
Ab.So.Lute.Lee Brilliant performance. It has been on my list of things to do to have my mind noodled at a show for a while now and this performance has made me more determined than ever to make it happen.
let’s make it happen!
Great work buddy!
This was so fun! Well done.
thanks so much

Great performance!
thank you!
Good stuff! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
thanks so much!
OMG! Matt, you are original and funny! I automatically am interested in watching effects that are not card tricks. Your trick was super good, and you fooled me, that's for sure. I couldn't even imagine what the punch line, so to speak, was going to be. To your credit, I watched AGAIN and STILL couldn't figure out how you did it. What a pleasant surprise! All good wishes.
wow, thanks so much!
Ah the finest T-shirt cannon bringer RJ :)
💯
"on the edge of your seat"
I like that little clue.
Hmm didn’t realize that till i read your comment
Wonderful act Matt, awesome combination of comedy and magic!! Absolutely loved it, respect from India :)
Thanks a ton!🙌
I see Scoop-easter eggs on the Cannon! ❤
Great show, Matt!
it’s incredible
Been waiting for this all season. Producers were holding out on us!
it’s free now, in the wild! 🙌😂🙌
This was awesome! So funny and a really cool trick.
thank you so much!
That was funny, but I knew something was up when I didn't see arm holes.
😂😂😂
SALT PORK!!!! Love the Ham Days shoutout!!! 😆🙌🐷
I need help!
They cut out the key reveal with a camera change. But, that was just outstanding. Come to Illinois and Ill see you!
I’m playing the Chicago Magic Lounge March 28 thru the 31 🙌
Thanks! I will try to be there!@@mattydchacer
Good job, Matt! As a regular congregationalist, I was excited to see this clip, and I figured Penn would bust your balls. He didn't disappoint.
he certainly didn’t 😂
Amaaaaazing maaaaaaan ❤
Thanks so much!
I found that act very clever and entertaining. It is a joy enducer. Well done!
Thanks so much!
Good job man! 😂
thanks so much
hilarious! Such a cumbersome set up- it feels like you were pranking P&T.
😂😂😂😅
This was very well written!
aw thanks so much. that means a lot
So that's the second time this year , that a version of the magic bullet is presented to P&T :)
Gods that was so fun to watch. I was totally fooled simply from the misdirection of comedy. That put a big grin on my face. Bravo
Hey thanks so much! I really appreciate it
I loved it, they looked so goofy
😂😂😂
Yup, belly laugh alright. This guy's multi-talented, fooled me, but also made it very clear I'm not recovering from my injured cheeks (from too much laughing and smiling) for a couple hours.
aw thanks so much
Wonderful….
thank you
@@mattydchacer Absolutely….beautifully designed routine.
That was like a love letter to the Scoops and the Congregationalists and it was a spectacularly fun trick
it was. thanks so much
Great act
thank you !
Regardless of the trick, getting Penn & Teller that involved was hilarious.
thanks!- that was what I was hoping for
If only the hand cannon had a FIBRE optic sight(pun intended) for T-shirt launching!
oh that’s funny 😁
Can't believe you got a T-shirt signed by Penn, or the fact that his signature looks like a peace sign
Wow! Would you look at that cannon!
impressive, yeah? 😂
😅 good one
thanks!
@mattydchacer love the moniker. Great performance. Had everything needed for a successful act.
you may ask "but when did he switch the shirts ?" but I don't think this is the point
the point is he made all three Penn, Teller and Brooke have a hell of a time and a good laugh for the public
💯 my hope. Thank you!
Just the look on Teller's face at 5:05 alone is worth the price of admission. 😄
That was fun.
Did they edit out a little bit when you showed Penn how to trigger it? He seemed to know exactly how to use it. Maybe he was familiarized with it backstage or something?
P.S. For anyone else reading this, no I’m absolutely not suggesting the guys were “in on it” or anything like that. I just like getting a feel for how it all works over there. Considering applying to be on the show at some point in the future.
they did
He a got a tshirt instead of a trophy. 🤣🤣🤣
How did he switch the tshirt? One thing for sure. The tshirt he place in the cannon is not tshirt decorated by Penn.
The chair was in on it, and did not show the t-shirt as being Penns before loading it. Also the trash bag was an unwilling participant
Former vice president
So ......did he get his trophy??
No
@@magicjim1 I thought for sure he would've.
I stole one
@@mattydchacer I watched your act on Fool Us yesterday on CZcams. You were simply jaw droppingly hysterical!!!!! One of my top 3 acts I've ever seen on there.
I don't even want to say that Brooke is older since she is so pretty.
Doesn't that Brooke figure ever change her stage clothes? She has had the same outfit since the first show she was on.
Wait til you see what Penn and teller wear 😂
Great work, sherlock
Each episode is cobbled together using magicians who performed on different days. The dress lets the editors do that.
Penn and Teller have not changed theirs this season, either. Hmm....
btw as much as I loved Allison, Brooke has improved so much, she is funny, charming.... that's her job for sure, but she doest it very well
Well, you fooled me, here you go.
Sweet! I’ll take it
Great job Matt!
