DAMOJO Spotlight: Yoel Spielman

All right, we're here tonight in Barcelo Bavaro. This was the first night of entertainment on this year's 2026 Elite Kosher Travel Trip. And you know what? We're here with the world famous Y Spielman mentalist magician. You blew it out of the park tonight. >> It was sick. Thank you guys for having me. >> For real. >> Really great having you. Is this your first time interacting with our community? >> With the Syrian community. I mean, a show like this definitely for sure. I mean, I'm sure I've walked into places and done magic with them, but this is I love it. He asked me, my cameraman was like, "Oh, aren't they all like astronauts?" I'm like, "No." Like, "Where'd you get that? Where'd you get that?" >> What did you think? >> Unbelievable. I had an amazing time. Had I had to be off by 9:30, so would never finish that like, "Can I go until 10?" I was like, "No." >> Wasn't amazing how we all had the same name. >> Eddie and Robin. >> And the legend Richie. We can't forget. Shout out Richie. >> Everyone says we're Eddie, Joey, Sammy, and Dave. Like the whole community. >> Is there any other name? They're all the same. Yeah. >> How did you get into this? people, >> how did I get into it? Everyone was a >> young guy. He's now traveling. He's a he's a mentalist. What made you get into this? >> What made me get into it? I think that I started out on YouTube. So, I was just not even like, oh, I want to be a magician. I was just I was learning and this is sick. I could do this. And then I just kept learning and learning and learning. What people don't understand is the biggest part is the performance. Like you said to me, like besides for the magic, there was a lot of comedy in it. That's the whole game plan. Most of the guys, not even some, probably know more magic than me. But I think that I just practiced at the performance so much and then people loved that over the magic and together there's just a 10 out of 10. Thank god. Um, and then I met people, those people know people and those type of things and that was pretty how much it went. Yeah. >> You bring a lot of happiness and a lot of entertainment to a lot of people. >> And uh, what inspires you the most about what you do? >> What inspires me the most? Wow. I should say. >> Yeah, man. Uh um what gives me um I like to know that it's actually crazy and I think about I'm like kid that entertainer is 27 doing this full time. That guy's this and knowing that I'm 18 doing this full time. >> You said you're 19 next week. A week from today. Thank you. um that you know having also like good rebain like I also I asked someone like just is like how how is it possible to have a relationship with Hashem and do this because everyone's like oh you you you really have to understand that you just did your part and Hashem wants the world and if he wants you to be famous you'll be famous if he doesn't want you to be famous you're not going to be famous no matter how hard you try you got to do your part the biggest tip I can give someone that's trying to become entertainer entrepreneur whatever it is is start now for sure a lot of people I'll hang out when I'm in my teens and then at 22 you know I'll I'll get a job here and then that job will help me become this. If that's your game plan, it's not happening. You got to start now. That's the game plan. I just started. I didn't stop. Boom. Made a whole team. A lot of people that are on our team. We have the video guy. We have the editor. We have uh a guy managing my social media because I don't want to be on social media. It's very toxic. Those type of things. Whole team traveling having a good time. I'm saying this from the creator. That's what we got. >> Very, very inspiring. Very inspiring. >> Thank you. >> What's next? What's the next the next phase? >> Um the next phase is I would like to keep doing this definitely. Um I want to shout out just one more thing that there's an anonymous sponsor every week that sponsors $500 and we run a shabas program for people that have struggle keeping shabas. The average week we probably get at this point like 180 people 200 people. Um, and it's crazy because I'm that's what I'm using like a probably gave me the platform so I can bring people closer and every day I'm like status if you didn't join yet. 9294986630. That sounded like I practiced that a million times. No. Um, we post also like the Muda messages like every single day. A minute or two literally will change your life. Another thing I'm just going to keep saying it is a lot of people are afraid to start in whatever you do. You know, you're afraid to start learning because you know you don't want to start learning. Just start baby steps. No matter what you do, you'll be good at whatever you want to do. >> Anyway, I want to thank you for coming. Only David invited you. >> Good stuff. Thank you. >> Pleasure having you. >> Really great having you and to come to your next show, >> man. Follow >> right now. While you waiting, >> good stuff.
