    This week we discuss updates to the Asbury Park Arts and Culture Plan and welcome back Carrie Turner from the Asbury Park Arts Council.  We also welcome Eric Galipo from Francis Cauffman Architects who did the hard work of designing the Arts & Culture plan which will now be presented to the City Council.  Welcome Carrie and Eric!

    Amy & Joe talk with local poet Cord Moreski

    In honor of National Poetry Month, we welcome local poet Cord Moreski, who is the host, curator and driving force behind the wildly popular “Coffee and Words” poetry series held at Asbury Park Roastery—a series that is in turn just a small part of the New Jersey Poetry Renaissance which is bringing poetry readings to spaces all over the State of New Jersey.



    Special thanks to Tom Chesek for letting us record this episode at the historic Stephen Crane House here in Asbury Park.



    One Note, we have added a recording to Cord reading several of his poems to the end of this episode, so stay tuned and give them a listen! 



    Poems:




    Aubrey



    Night Swimming

    Amy & Joe continue their talk with Reverend David Parreott Jr.

    Welcome to part two of our conversation with long-time Asbury Park Police Officer, former member of the Asbury Park City Council, former state champion tennis player from Asbury Park High School, and local Pastor—the Reverend David Parreott Jr. He reminisces about being a police officer during the 1970 riots in Asbury Park, being a neighborhood kid when Asbury Park had dirt roads and a synagogue on Cookman Ave, and what it was like to run for office in Asbury Park back in the 1980s. Welcome Reverend!

    Amy & Joe talk with Reverend David Parreott Jr.

    When Amy & Joe sit down to interview guests, we try to keep our conversations somewhere near the 45-minute mark just to keep things simple. But this week’s guest, who has been a resident of Asbury Park since the 1930s, was such an engaging storyteller that they ended up with over 90 minutes of conversation before we knew it—enough for two full episodes. So welcome to part one of our conversation with long-time Asbury Park Police Officer, former member of the Asbury Park City Council, former state champion tennis player from Asbury Park High School, and local Pastor—the Reverend David Parreott Jr. Welcome Reverend!

    Recording at the historic Stephen Crane House here in Asbury Park, this week Amy & Joe return to the local news scene and talk to Ellen Carroll, editor of The Coaster, one of the last remaining family-owned, hyper-local newspapers on the Jersey shore--which is also celebrating its 40 anniversary this year.

    Amy & Joe talk with singer-songwriter Lisa Bouchelle

    This past week, Asbury Park was once again hosting the Light of Day Foundation’s series of concerts, which raise money to fund research into possible cures, improved treatments and support for patients with Parkinson's Disease and its related illnesses, ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis) and PSP (Progressive Supranuclear Palsy). We were lucky enough to talk to one of this year’s performers.  Joining Amy & Joe, with the help of Ming Chen of A Shared Universe, is New Jersey singer-songwriter, Lisa Bouchelle, who opened and closed the Light of Day series.  We talk to Lisa about her music, touring and what it’s like to cook with the great Chubby Checker.  Hint, keep the fire extinguisher handy.
