It is a rare and special day… Jammin’ with Jamie Day! And it’s also… Saturday!
… Oh, and it’s also Leap Day.
A Leap Day on a Jammin’ with Jamie day? Well, that calls for a list of…
Hi, everyone!
Happy New Year!
It’s a new year and a new decade! It’s a time of new beginnings, both formal and informal. However, it’s also a time of both formal and informal endings.
On the formal side, certain seasonal jobs have ended, certain legal or work-related matters have met their deadline, and the wall and desk calendars have reached their expiration dates.
On the informal side, well, is everything else. New Year’s resolutions, personal and professional goals, a renewed spirit, and so much more.
The ending of one chapter is often the beginning of another, but there’s still a through line of story, characters, and/or settings to tie them together.
So in this “in between” space, let’s end one year and begin another with a batch of…
Hi, everyone!
It… is… time. For Christmas/Chanukah/Kwanzaa/St. Nicholas Day/winter/many other holidays!
But I understand: while the snow gives some people a magical feeling, it leaves others cold. And while the holiday season is a joyous time for many, it can also be overwhelming, stressful, and even isolating.
But not to worry! Jammin’ with Jamie is here for you, and we’ve brought a sack full of…
Hi, everyone!
On Jammin’ with Jamie, we often look to and motivate ourselves for the future. However, if one “lives in the future” 100% of the time, that gets exhausting, difficult, and even frustrating, as not everything works out the way you hope. And even when things do work out exactly as you hope, thinking ahead to the next “thing” will rob you of any enjoyment of what you’ve already earned and accomplished.
I’m here to entertain and inject some fun into your weekend, but I’m also here to help. So let’s enjoy our jammin’ time together with a mix of…
Hi, everyone!
This week is a landmark Jammin’ with Jamie!
OMG (Oh My Goulash)!
Yes! We’ll be giving away two tickets to Rachel Bloom’s concert on September 21 at the Chicago Theatre, as part of her “What Am I Going to Do with My Life Now?” tour!
Yes, I’m serious, and don’t call me… oh wait, you didn’t.
By total and complete coincidence, our theme coincides perfectly with Rachel Bloom’s concert tour’s title! (I’m not even kidding: I’ve had this theme planned for a while.)
Art imitates life, imitates art, snake eats tail, equals MC squared, singularity… My brain hurts…
No question about it, we’re going to be jammin’ to…
(Begins vocal warm-ups)
Hi, everyone!
It’s finally summer! Which means it’s time to both heat up and cool down with a super set of…
Hi, everyone!
You know I like to play songs that are timely… and this week, I’m doing it literally! So synchronize your watches, because it’s time for…
Hi, everyone!
We’re in the midst of the hottest days of the year! Let’s heat things up on Jammin’ with Jamie with a sizzling serving of…
Hi, everyone!
This time of year is a weird time for weather. It’s technically still winter, and yet, people are looking ahead to spring. And if you’re in the Chicagoland area, it’s downright confusing. One day brings torrential rain, the next brings howling wind, and the next brings torrential snow.
The clingy cold weather may be irritating for some, but remember: warm weather is just around the corner! Until then, let’s do what we can to enjoy what’s left of winter with an avalanche of…
