About this episode

By the time Ava Do arrived in California as a refugee from Vietnam, she already knew a lot about deception. Then she studied psychology. The combination of the two set her on a path toward becoming one of the foremost mentalists and magicians in the world. Her acts are rooted in the study of human behavior, perception, and the stories we tell ourselves about what is and isn’t real.


Little America: The Official Podcast is an Apple TV+ podcast, produced in conjunction with the Vox Media Podcast Network.


Watch the new season of Little America, an Apple Original series, December 9 on Apple TV+ where available.
