Also there's a video on youtube taken from a lecture he did on sleight of hand.

I've talked to him in-person post-Vegas show. Penn also. Class acts, the both of them.
But it is a noteworthy thing for sure, I always sortof forget-and-remember-and-forget-again how he sounds.

it bothers me that Penn has stated - a few times - that they're not even friends, but merely business partners.

I remember getting their autographs after a show in Newark circa 2001 or 2002. Teller signed a kid's program, and then said "Here, this way you can still enjoy it while I'm dead."

He was one of the experts that the History Channel talked to on a Houndini special they ran. They had him poorly lit so you couldn't see him actually talk, but it was obvious.

It's likely a joke, which Teller would know, or maybe they just aren't friends, which Teller would know too. You don't have to be friends to work with someone. I'll be checking this out though, I think Penn's great and Teller is fascinating. |

Teller speaks directly to the camera throughout the whole Egypt part of the documentary series they did, Penn and Teller's Magic and Mystery Tour. It used to be on Netflix streaming, I don't know if it still is or not.
I was watching it with a friend and he went in the other room and Teller came on in a talking head spot and I yelled to him "Teller is talking on camera!" So, i think he is fine with talking on camera as long as he is himself and not being a performer.

I watched that on Netflix and for some reason when Teller was talking it was a really weird unsettling feeling. I don't really know how to describe it but it's like it wasn't real. Guess never hearing someone talk and then all the sudden you do is quite odd. |

A lot of people who do shows together aren't really friends outside of it. I remember a story about how Adam and Jamie from Mythbusters weren't friends outside the show. |

I'll be checking this out though, I think Penn's great and Teller is fascinating. it bothers me because I enjoy the dynamic they have and it would certainly seem to me that, after having worked alongside someone for 20+ years, you would have a fairly close relationship with them. I also wonder if Teller feels the same way. |

I'm sure I read an interview with Penn where he says the reason they have had such a long professional partnership is because they have little in common other than magic, so they don't spend enough time together (outside of work) to get pissed off with each other. |

He also spoke at the end of their movie, "Penn & Teller Get Killed".
