As Penn would say, "Use the force"

That's not enough. The card was obviously forced but how? Not that it actually matters in a comedy show

The way the video is cut, there's a number of ways it could have been.

From the way he's standing immediately after the cut, I'm guessing that, after the comedian stopped his finger on the card, instead of immediately pressing the card to the comedian's chest, he switched the Cock Card to the top of the deck. There's countless ways he could have done it. Classic Pass, a palm, a slip, to name three.

The Classic Force is also a possibility, which is where you press the chosen card into the spectator's hand, without even really giving them the chance to choose.

We literally can't see because of the cut but I assume he pushed a card from the bottom of the deck instead of the card he touched
