Why doesn't Teller speak?
American magician Teller – Raymond Joseph Teller to his friends – almost never speaks during his performances with Penn Jillette. Teller says that this is because by dropping the patter he felt that audiences would be forced to "put together" the events on stage on in their own minds. "Everything becomes very intimate". You can watch Teller explain why he never speaks on YouTube.
