Josh ‘Shag’ AGLE
1962

...Most people tend to think of Shag as being an artist and active participant in the lounge lifestyle. While these things are both true, Shag is also a published author and fan of linguistics. For instance, “Shag” is a portmanteau for “Josh + Agle,” similar to how “Jeremyriad” is a portmanteau for “Jeremy + Myriad”. While interviewing Shag for the release of his new Vannen artist watch, I took the opportunity to ask him a few uncommon questions. Kitsch culture-haters take note: there’s no tiki talk* in this Shag interview!...
