“If you see one magician this decade, Hobson is it.” – Herald Sun Melbourne, Australia

“Hobson closed the show with excellent magic and gales of laughter … his acting and comedic timing are superb!” – Linking Ring Magazine

“… the audience gave him top applause at finish.” – Variety

“… Outrageous! Uproarious! Impossible to describe without laughing! This is a funny, funny young man who has captured the comedy club approach and has made it his own. Yes, there is fire eating. Yes, there is magic. Yes, there is comedy. But, mainly, there is entertainment!” – The New Tops

“… Hobson is playing the audience like Menuhin would a violin … you know you’re in the hands of a master as he takes you through a collection of classic magic effects … and his own creations … but his character and his comedy is what you remember first … you realize he’s a master of sleight of hand, as well as sleight of tongue.” – Australian Magic Monthly
