Ep 32 - AJ Shap

from The Poets Hosted by The Poets

AJ is the guy behind the bar who enjoys conversations that start with wandering the great outdoors, glide into politics, stumble through pop culture, joke about comedy, reiterate sports commentary, and land safely in music. Also, he hates run-on sentences. AJ is originally from Atlanta, which he proudly claims as the cultural Mecca of the world, and the source for any creative inspiration flowing through his head. A writer by trade, he found his footing in advertising; brainwashing you with silly jokes, infectious tag lines, and Sarah McLaughlin songs. While he would never dare don the label of a comic, he also would never miss the opportunity to crack a joke. Still, poetry was always his first love and his most consistent creative outlet. You can find him on Instagram @philosophical_chillin, where he does have a collection of photography but is rarely active these days. On his website at ajshap.com. Or at the Mercury Cafe on Friday nights, where you are more than welcome to come hang, order food, get drinks or coffee, and tip the staff really really well. In this Episode: 1. The Reason I Write 2. Peter Pan Complex 3. Love Games 4. I Will Never Forget You 5. Reaching for the Moon 6. Untitled 7. Dear Lover 8. Lupe 9. Method Man
