Post-Valentine’s Day, we have another beloved (by me) Jammin’ with Jamie tradition!
This week, since we recently dragged ourselves through a holiday that celebrates romantic love, we’re going to celebrate a different sort of love and relationship that’s not celebrated as much, but is just as important!
This week, the longest-running children’s animated show, Arthur, concluded its 25th and final season. If you’ve been jammin’ with us for a while, you’ve jammed to several songs from and based on the show. I always hear great feedback from you, my fellow Jammers, when you hear songs you haven’t heard in forever, or songs you’ve never heard from characters you’ve known forever!
Longtime loyal Jammin’ with Jamie Jammers know that I’ve loved Arthur my whole life. In fact, when the show celebrated its 20th anniversary, I was chosen by the production team to make a video talking about what Arthur means to me, which I was more than excited to do!

So let’s start the New Year right (hint hint) by ringing it in with a batch of…
No matter how much you may love the holidayseason, there are always certain things about the holiday season that we don’t love so much. So this week, it’s time for a jam session I get a sick and twisted sense of joy out of putting together!
Our seasonal spooky jam sessions for Halloween are gone and buried, but those haunting happenings, creepy creatures, and macabre moods and moments don’t get killed off so easily. We’ve just dug up a heap of…
Now that we’ve kicked off the holidayseason, it’s time to kick it into high gear! Bundle up, because we’re heading up north! How far north? All the way north… to the North Pole! We’ll be traveling on our holiday road trip as we jam to a sack of…
