About Me
I am Hakim and I usually go with my stage name Magic Bo.
What started out wanting to do something special for my daughter's 5th birthday in 2010, performing magic and entertaining became a passion. Fast forward to 2021, I have performed over 100 shows to kids and adults alike.
Podcasting was something I picked up during the pandemic. With virtually zero shows, I I felt that I need to feed my passion by interaction with one another. So in June 2020, I started this channel Funky Fridays With Bo to create meaningful conversation with people.
I have always believed that throughout this journey of life, we meet many people along the way. Each one has a purpose in our life. No one we meet is ever a coincidence. What I want to do is ultimately, to create many positive vibrations through the conversation in the podcast so that it radiates in the lives of whom I have spoken or met along the way.
Let's create positive vibrations and create an honest meaningful conversation together.
