How Penn Jillette Lost 100 Lbs. and Still Eats Whatever He Wants

Outspoken, frank, and bitingly clever, Penn Jillette is a cultural phenomenon as a solo personality and as half of the world-famous, Emmy Award-winning magic duo Penn & Teller. In his new book, Presto! he describes his determination to transform himself—body and mind—and gives his views on sex, religion, and pop culture. CHF associate artistic director Alison Cuddy joins this master provocateur for a rollicking evening of mayhem and magic against the backdrop of the 2016 presidential campaign.

 Penn Jillette lost one-third of his body weight over three months in late 2014-early 2015 and says he feels much better now that he carries 228 pounds on his 6-foot-7 frame.
