Meet Tom Elderfield, the magician getting everything wrong on The Traitors

The Traitors episode four finally came around last night, after the longest drought ever waiting from Thursday last week for a crumb more drama. And what did we get? One of the most chaotic and melodramatic spots of reality telly I’ve seen in a millennia. Tears, tantrums, storm outs and unhinged behaviour struck all corners of that Scottish castle last night, and most of that was down to magician Tom Elderfield announcing that he was the boyfriend of fellow Traitors contestant Alex.

Uproar occurred, and Tom spent much of the episode in the firing line. But who actually is Tom Elderfield, the magician causing carnage on The Traitors season one? Here’s all you need to know!

How old is he and where’s he from?

Tom’s 24 and is from Buckinghamshire, but is based in London now for all of his magician shenanigans. I mean, he literally refers to himself as ‘London Magician’ on his site, so.

Why’s he on The Traitors?

Tom said his skillset as a magician would get him far in the game, but his words might fall on deaf ears considering not one person he’s accused has actually been a traitor.

“I’d like to think I read people pretty well. If I’m not a Traitor, those Traitors will probably be very scared of me because I’ll point them out very quickly.

“I pick up on the way people are acting, how their energy changes, even the subtlest of things, when their palms get clammy, or their neck goes a bit cold. I’ll be picking up on that as well as how everyone else reacts when someone gets accused of being a Traitor.”

Aged like milk those quotes, I fear.

He’s mates with Dynamo

I feel like becoming mates with Dynamo must be like the highest level of job satisfaction and respect you can get in the world of magicians. There’s a quote from Dynamo on Tom’s website saying “The level of magic produced is mind-blowing and inspirational”. Big words indeed!

He’s also got a testimony from *checks notes* Logan Paul? Who said, “Yo, I don’t get this shit. How did you do that!” Ever the wordsmith.

He’s in a relationship with Alex from The Traitors

The two kept their relationship a secret, but we saw last night that that perhaps wasn’t the wisest of choices and might have backfired a liccle bit.

Legends & Lattes

After a lifetime of bounties and bloodshed, Viv is hanging up her sword for the last time.

The battle-weary orc aims to start fresh, opening the first ever coffee shop in the city of Thune. But old and new rivals stand in the way of success — not to mention the fact that no one has the faintest idea what coffee actually is.

If Viv wants to put the blade behind her and make her plans a reality, she won't be able to go it alone.

But the true rewards of the uncharted path are the travelers you meet along the way. And whether drawn together by ancient magic, flaky pastry, or a freshly brewed cup, they may become partners, family, and something deeper than she ever could have dreamed.

Legends and Lattes is the wholesome and cozy fantasy you didn’t know you need.

For those of you who don’t know, Travis Baldree has been well known for his role as the audiobook narrator behind Will Wight’s Cradle series. And many other series, really. Legends and Lattes is his debut novel, and I do think Baldree should now be known for his fantasy novel, too. I wouldn’t have known about Legends and Lattes if it weren’t for Twitter. Most of you probably know already, almost all of my favorite novels and stories are intense, emotional, dark, and serious in tone. But I do love slice-of-life as a genre as well. When I saw the cover art—illustrated by Carson Lowmiller—to Legends and Lattes on Twitter, with the premise indicating this is a high fantasy novel with low stakes, I knew I couldn’t go wrong with my expectations entering this book. I knew immediately I should read this when I’m in the mood for something short, cozy, and wholesome. Despite loving slice-of-life in other storytelling mediums such as manga, anime, and TV shows, I seem to struggle to find a terrific slice-of-life fantasy novel. But I got what I wanted here. Legends and Lattes is the slice-of-life fantasy novel I craved and received.

“I told you I came across it in Azimuth, and I remember following the smell to the shop. They called it a café. People just sat around drinking it from these little ceramic cups, and I had to try it, and… it was like drinking the feeling of being peaceful. Being peaceful in your mind. Well, not if you have too much, then it’s something else.”

The story in Legends and Lattes is centered on Viv. Worn out after decades of packing steel and raising hell, Viv, the orc barbarian, cashes out of the warrior’s life with one final score. A forgotten legend, a fabled artifact, and an unreasonable amount of hope lead her to the streets of Thune, where she plans to open the first coffee shop the city has ever seen. However, her dreams of a fresh start making coffees instead of swinging swords are hardly a sure bet. Old frenemies and Thune’s shady underbelly may just upset her plans. To finally build something that will last, Viv will need some new partners and a different kind of resolve. At a glance, it's easy to advertise this as a fantasy novel about building a new coffee shop in a fantasy world, and yes, it indeed is. But beyond the surface, there were a lot of relatably resonating themes that made Legends and Lattes so precious. Through this premise and the narrative, Baldree highlighted the importance of friendship, found family, love, community, and how good food and beverages never fail. And at its core, I think Legends and Lattes is a story about starting something new. It's never too late to start something new. Will it be easy? No, it will be difficult. But it's not impossible. Growing out of your comfort zone is never easy, but good things just might come out of it. Booktube was something I was too afraid to try. For years I contemplated it, and I won't lie, I still struggle with it at times. But after more than a year, I can say that this new venture has all been so worth it.

“I apologize. Look, I am very bad at this. I don’t really know what I’m doing… This is what I know, what I’ve always known. I just want to know something else, now. To be something else. Everything I said was stupid. I, of all people, ought to know better than to assume anything based on what you were born as. Before you walk out, do you mind if I start over?”

The novel doesn't feature multiple POV characters. The entire story in Legends and Lattes is told exclusively through the perspective of Viv. There isn't a lot of characters here, but Baldree focused on quality rather than quantity. Viv started the coffee shop business alone, and soon she will befriend new acquaintances and friends that became irreplaceable to her. It's never too late to do something new, but starting a coffee shop business on your own without anyone's help is a task that may be too difficult to execute. Cal, Tandri, and Thimble taught Viv and us readers that it is okay to believe in the kindness of strangers. As improbable as it sounds sometimes, especially to us who tasted adulthood already, not every stranger is out to get us. And Legends and Lattes remind us that there is goodness and kindness in this world. I loved reading the character development of Viv, Tandri, Cal, and Thimble. Thimble needs to be protected at all costs.

“Right… and one thing I remember particularly well from our little chat was how much she hated assholes. You know, some people might consider any of her crew to be assholes, just because of the nature of the business. But I don’t think that way… I’ve got respect for people who have to get their hands dirty to get things done. That’s just work. No, it takes something special to be a real asshole, and I think she and I are of the same mind.”

It's not only the characters, too. Even seeing their friendship and hard work bringing results in the form of a new menu genuinely made me smile. Oh my god, the description of the drinks and the food in this book is irresistible. I actually can't recommend this book to you if you're on a diet. I want to taste the coffee, the latte, Thimblet's cinnamon roll, Midnight Crescents, and more. If you're in the mood for an epic fantasy novel with warfare, battle scenes, and an expansive world-building, then this may not be the novel for you right now. But even then, I still would recommend Legends and Lattes to every fantasy reader. I am, after all, a fan of epic fantasy and grimdark fantasy, too, and I still end up loving this thoroughly. Slice-of-life does not mean that the story lacks tension, the conflicts the characters encounter are just different than the ones we often read in epic fantasy. I mean, if you know life, you know just how stressful life can get sometimes. And the narrative never takes a pause. Baldree made sure the progressions in character development and business making always happen with each chapter. Additionally, the 31 chapters in this novel are filled with their own unique chapter icon. All of these, with the combination of Baldree's accessible prose, transformed Legends and Lattes into a page-turning—and cozy—reading experience.

“I was just thinking that you don’t have to forget who you were… because that’s what brought you here.”

Legends and Lattes by Travis Baldree is a serendipitous novel. I didn't search for it, its existence came out of nowhere, and it instantly became one of my favorite books of the year. I have a strong instinct this book will be incredibly famous one day, sooner than later. I absolutely enjoyed it. A great book and delicious food are things in this world that never fail to make me feel happy and alive. I can't live without them. If you feel the same way, how about trying this relaxing book? Legends and Lattes is truly a feel-good fantasy novel at its finest. I eagerly wait for the next book by Baldree. I want more out of this world, and I've asked the author about his plan. Fortunately, Baldree plans to make this a series of standalone novels/series similar to Discworld by Terry Pratchett. This is most likely the best direction for the series, and I couldn't be more pleased. Pick up this book as soon as possible, and have a refreshing taste of Legends and Lattes.

These 33 Crystals Will Add a Spark(le) to Your Love Life

There’s no area of life, or intention, desire, or need that doesn't have a crystal tailor-made for it. Crystals can be thousands or even millions of years old. Each one has taken its own pathway of creation, formation, and development, and each one has unique properties.

Crystals are little wonders of nature: naturally formed when atoms come together and become a uniformed cluster, often when liquids cool and start to harden. Certain molecules in the liquid collect together, in a uniform and repeating pattern, which (over anything from a few days to thousands of years) forms the emerging crystal’s unique shape. Also, they’re pretty. The big bling—you know, the good stuff, like emeralds, diamonds, and rubies—forms when liquid rock slowly cools.

Even though you’ve probs heard them described as a trend and you can buy them in tons of different shops these days, crystals have actually been around and carried for healing and protection for centuries. (Crystal-heads believe their crystalline structures hold energy and vibrate at frequencies that our bodies and minds subliminally pick up. Who am I to argue with ancient wisdom. ) Certain crystals are especially suited for particular goals, such as helping you drift off to sleep, protecting you from harm and bad vibes, and even attracting all the cash to your wallet.

Selecting a crystal to help steer you toward your goals is a step toward making your ambitions reality. And when it comes to attracting love, even if you don’t believe the crystal itself is magic, just the fact that you’re carrying one means you’re opening up your heart to the possibility. Try carrying one with you in your purse or pocket when you meet up with your crush or holding it on a phone or FaceTime date. Just make sure you cleanse your crystal first! You can do that quickly and easily by leaving your crystals on your window sill for a couple of hours in the sunlight or in the light beams of a New or Full Moon.

Now that I’ve convinced you (you’re welcome), here are some crystal picks from Clare Gregory, founder of UK alternative jewelry brand Bonearrow (she uses crystals in her designs), plus a few extras.

Reviews for "Piff the Magic Dragon Sets the Stage on Fire: Event Schedule"

1. John - 2/5 - I was really disappointed with the Piff the Magic Dragon events schedule. The shows were few and far between, and the ones that were available were at inconvenient times. I had been looking forward to seeing Piff perform, but it seemed like he wasn't making much effort to accommodate his fans. It was a real letdown and I don't think I'll be attending any of his shows in the future.

2. Sarah - 3/5 - While I enjoyed Piff the Magic Dragon's performances, I found the events schedule to be lacking. There were only a handful of shows scheduled throughout the year, making it difficult for fans to catch him live. Additionally, the venues chosen for these events were not easily accessible or conveniently located. Although I appreciated the talent and humor of Piff, I wish there were more opportunities to see him perform.

3. David - 1/5 - This was one of the worst events schedules I've ever seen. Piff the Magic Dragon only had a couple of shows listed, and even those were spread out over months. It was nearly impossible to plan ahead and make arrangements to attend any of the events. I was extremely disappointed with the lack of effort put into scheduling more shows for fans who had been eagerly waiting to see Piff perform.

4. Emma - 2/5 - The Piff the Magic Dragon events schedule was a major disappointment. I had been looking forward to attending one of his shows, but the limited number of events made it difficult to find a date that worked for me. The few shows that were scheduled were also expensive, which added to my frustration. Overall, I was let down by the lack of options and flexibility in the events schedule.
