“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Fourth of July Follies (2022)”!

Hi, everyone!

Last week was another holiday, so we’re going to celebrate it!

If you are in or near Highland Park, Illinois, or know someone who is, we extend our heartfelt condolences and well wishes. We’re going to be sensitive to that on this week’s show. If you’d rather listen to it later on your own time, that’s okay. I can get you connected to the archive where recordings are stored.

Let’s light it up (safely!) and let the sparks fly from a flock of…

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Language Lyrics (2022)”!

Hi, everyone!

Language is an odd thing. You can use it to be direct. But you can also use it for metaphors, for puns and plays-on-words, or just to be extremely and intricately long-winded.

We love and frequently feature fun with words from both songs and our host (ahem) on Jammin’ with Jamie, but this week, it’ll be in the spotlight, as we take a metaphorical walk through a load of…

So, as a little “birthday present to myself,” this week’s theme is…
