“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Santa Songs (Holidays 2014: Part 2)”!

Hi, everyone!

We’re continuing on with our holiday-themed jam sessions! Last week, we focused on getting ourselves into the spirit of the holiday season.

This week, we’re going to catch the next reindeer flight to the North Pole with our own sack stuffed full of…

Come on! I need to know what to pack!

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Wishing You Happy Holidays… Harmonies (Holidays 2014: Part 1)”!

Hi, everyone!

I hope all of you Jammers out there had a very Happy Thanksgiving with loved ones!

All right, it’s officially after Thanksgiving, so now, I can finally open the floodgates and unleash my personal avalanche of tunes that I love jammin’ to this time of year!

So starting now, I am officially…

… What? … WHAT?!

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Stormy Songs”!

Hi, everyone!

If you’re in the Chicagoland area, you know we’ve been having some crazy weather lately. Of course, this is par for the course in the Chicagoland area.

But even so, it can be hard to withstand the constant swinging from one weather extreme to another.

That’s where I come in!

This week, cozy up to your radio (or computer or mobile device), and tune in as we jam to…

This better be good. I don’t want to go outside!

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Congressional Carols”!

Hi, everyone!

I hope you all went out to vote on November 4, if not earlier! I don’t need to tell you how important it is to vote, so I’ll just move on to why we’re all really here: the announcement of this week’s theme for our jam session!

Well, you know me: I can’t let an event like an election go by without acknowledging it on Jammin’ with Jamie, so this week, we’ll be jammin’ to some…

… I don’t remember voting for this theme…

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Motivational Melodies”!

Hi, everyone!

Everyone needs a little pick-me-up every now and then. Everyone needs a little motivation, a voice saying, “You can do it!”

This seems especially true at certain times of the year––– for example, this time. Students are back in school, summer has ended for everyone (in this hemisphere, anyway), and there often seems to just be a sort of dip in people’s spirits in this transitional time between summer and the avalanche of holidays ahead, starting, of course, with Halloween!

But we’ll get to that soon! For now, we need some…

What?

ALS Ice Bucket Challenge

Hi, everyone!

I did the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge! Idina Menzel and James Snyder, thank you for the challenge!

Pee-wee Herman, Gonzo the Great, and Communications Residential College (CRC) residents past and present, you’ve been challenged!

You can make a donation to the ALS Association, too, at alsa.org. It’s a great cause!

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “New Adventures”!

Hi, everyone!

For most students, this time of year means the start of summer vacation, but even if you long ago closed your last textbook, we’re all still heading into summer! Summer seems to have a way of revitalizing people and inspiring them to embark on new endeavors with new energy. Well, who am I to argue with that?!

So, in the words of a certain new Broadway musical, “Here I Go”… or rather, here we go…

On to…

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Monetary Melodies”!

Hi, everyone!

I apologize in advance for reminding you of this… but on April 15, income taxes are due.

But wait! Whether you’re still working on them, are still putting them off, or are actually already done and just want to enjoy your accomplishment, we have a great jam session for you, as we jam to…

Cha-ching!

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Go for the (Oscar) Gold”!

Hi, everyone!

As I’m sure many of you “Jammers” out there are aware, this Sunday, March 2, at 7:00 pm Eastern Time (6:00 pm Central Time) on ABC, the one and only Ellen DeGeneres will take the stage to host the 86th Academy Awards!

So this week, we’re going to go for the gold! No, not the Olympic gold: we’re going to …

I’m ready! Let’s go!
