In this, our 125th episode, The Human Knot, Alakazam connected with one of his mentors AJ James. AJ takes us through the day in the life of a street performer in London, he talks about getting his start doing gymnastics where he discovered his talent for entertaining a crowd and his journey from acrobat to street performer. He talks about what he’s been doing throughout the pandemic and how he got stuck in Panama when everything shut down. He shares stories about meeting his heroes, Skate Naked, working Sydney where he and Al met and being a part of a double act. In an added bonus we get a glimpse into Al’s process when it comes to script writing for his show. This is a great conversation, peppered with some fantastic stories, with two veterans of street theater who have a ton of respect for one another.
