Unexpected Agenda by Roberto Giobbi - Book

A Full Year of Secrets, Ideas, and Miracles — Day by Day

365 days. 365 secrets. One incredible journey through the mind of Roberto Giobbi, one of magic’s greatest living masters.

Unexpected Agenda is the long-awaited sequel to Secret Agenda and Hidden Agenda, completing Giobbi’s landmark trilogy. This is no ordinary magic book — it’s a personal invitation to spend an entire year inside the mind of a world-class performer and teacher.

Every single day, you’ll unlock a new discovery drawn from Giobbi’s legendary notebooks — a trick, a sleight, a piece of theory, a presentation idea, a story, a business strategy, a psychological subtlety. Each one hand-picked from a lifetime of learning, tested in real performance, and shared with the kind of insight only Giobbi can deliver.

This isn’t just a book you read — it’s a book you live.
