MIAMI, Sept. 16, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Discovery en Espanol adds to Tuesday night ''Enigma'' programming with EL MAGO POP. The series is led by the Spanish illusionist Antonio Diaz who, with his fresh and irreverent style, takes his magic to the streets with the aim to personally meet his idols through the six degrees of separation theory. The series EL MAGO POP will air Tuesdays at 9PM ET/PT, starting September 30th.

At the age of 28, after having won the National Prize of Magic in Spain, Antonio sets himself up to conquer U.S. Hispanic audiences with his unique magic and humor. His personal style combines illusion with visual narrative, minus the tuxedo and hair gel; his look fits his personality, not his trade. In EL MAGO POP, Antonio spans the streets of Europe putting the theory of six degrees of separation to the test with the aim of meeting and impressing well-known personalities with his magic, including English physicist Stephen Hawking, Pink Floyd drummer Nick Mason or Brazilian soccer player Neymar by way of only six go-betweens.

With EL MAGO POP, Discovery en Espanol expands its "Noche de Enigma'' (Enigma Night) during which it travels to a new dimension to show stories that relate to inexplicable phenomena, introduce controversial personalities and analyze seemingly unsolvable cases.
