“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Jamie’s Favorite Jams (Part 2)”!

Hi, everyone!

Our final Jammin’ with Jamie jam session is this Saturday, June 13, from 6:00 to 9:00 am!

Well… here we are.

From the instant I found out I was going to be on the air for the first time in October 2011––– before the show was even called Jammin’ with Jamie––– I knew the show would have an end date.

I expected the end date to be “as soon as someone other than my parents heard my voice on an audio-only medium.”

I had to re-apply for my slot three times a year, so for a while, there was also the possibility that someone else would get the slot.

But at this point, I’m moving on to a new chapter in my life. I’m filled with that trademark mix of excitement and worry that comes every time you embark on a new start––– something I always encourage you Jammers to do on my show, making sure I always give you the proper motivational melodies to get stuck in your head and give you that extra push when you need it.

I want to assure all of you: the last time I sign off of Jammin’ with Jamie isn’t the last you’ll hear from me. In fact, it’s just the beginning. Make sure you keep checking this website, my Twitter, and my YouTube account, and we can keep up with each other’s adventures together!

So with that, I give you our final Jammin’ with Jamie jam session theme. Are you ready?

Let’s jam!

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Jamie’s Favorite Jams (Part 1)”!

Hi, everyone!

Our final Jammin’ with Jamie jam session will be Saturday, June 13, from 6:00 to 9:00 am!

After four amazing years, our wonderful Jammin’ with Jamie ride is slowly coming to an end.

I know what you’re thinking: First Letterman leaves, then Jon Stewart, now Jamie?! What is the world coming to?!

Well, the last time I sign off of Jammin’ with Jamie isn’t the last you’ll hear from me. In fact, it’s just the beginning. Make sure you keep checking this website, my Twitter, and my YouTube account, and we can keep up with each other’s adventures together!

I love so much about doing Jammin’ with Jamie. One of the things I love is getting to share the music I love with all you Jammers out there!

So now that the end (for now) is in sight, I think it’s high time we put as many of them as we can together and jam to…

I’m hungry for some JAM!

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Travel Tunes”!

Hi, everyone!

Jammin’ with Jamie will be two hours this week! We’ll be jammin’ from 6:00 to 8:00 am!

In case you missed my announcement last week, after four amazing years, Jammin’ with Jamie is, unfortunately, coming to an end. Including this week, we have three precious jam sessions left together.

Our final Jammin’ with Jamie jam session will be Saturday, June 13.

As for this week’s theme…

For students and everyone else involved in education, the school year is coming to an end, if it hasn’t already. It’s the time when everyone scatters to go home, go on vacation, move someplace new, or even just explore a different part of town.

Whether you know where you’re headed this summer or not, jam with us as we go on a musical road trip through a set of…

Where are you going with this?

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

Hi, everyone!

It may not feel like it, but believe it or not, it’s almost June!

Everyone has his/her/their favorite summer activities. Unfortunately, while it is getting warmer, it’s still not quite warm enough for many of these activities.

But we all should still stock up on sunscreen, keep our shorts at the ready, and know where our towels are (in true Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy fashion!), because suddenly, it’ll be 100 degrees and humid outside!

So of course, we’re going to use this jam session to prepare for just that. Imagine how great it’ll be when you walk out all decked out in summer gear and ready for fun while everyone else is still shocked and adjusting to seeing the sun again, and all because you jammed with us to…

The suspense is heating up!

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

Hi, everyone!

Even though it may not feel like it, it is indeed officially spring!

Spring is one of those times when it seems like everything gets the chance to start new––– trees’ leaves grow back, flowers start blooming again, and animals are running around outside again, many with new families!

So this week, we’re going to expand our audience to welcome our animal friends and shake our tail feathers to…

I’ll bet it’s the cat’s pajamas!

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Mom’s Melodies and Dad’s Ditties”!

Hi, everyone!

This Sunday is Mother’s Day!

… For those of you who had forgotten, you’re welcome for reminding you while you still have time to make it look like you hadn’t forgotten. That’s yet another advantage to being a loyal Jammer with us on Jammin’ with Jamie: you never forget a holiday!

So, in another grand Jammin’ with Jamie tradition, this Saturday, we’re going to pay tribute to our mothers––– and fathers!––– and jam to…

You shouldn’t leave people hanging like that!

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

Hi, everyone!

I know where a lot of my fellow Jammers will be this weekend… seeing The Avengers: Age of Ultron! I already saw it, and let me say: it’s epic, with drama, humor, and exciting surprises all the way through!

Also, on Saturday, May 3, it’s Free Comic Book Day, so go visit your local comic book store! Have you never been to your local comic book store? Well, Saturday would be a great day to start!

But what will you do as you wait outside with baited breath for the comic book store to open Saturday morning?

Suit up, Jammers, because it’s time for…

Jammers… ASSEMBLE!

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Tongue-Twisting Tunes”!

Hi, everyone!

This week, we have a brand new, never-before-heard theme on Jammin’ with Jamie––– a theme that I’ve wanted to do for a long time!

If you’ve jammed with us before, you know that I always encourage all of my fellow Jammers (That’s you!) to sing and dance along with us as we jam to terrific tunes.

Well this week, we’re going to put your enunciation to the test, we jam to…

Bring it on!

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Tax Tunes”!

Hi, everyone!

So many Jammin’ with Jamie traditions, so little time! And time is money!

Which reminds me… to remind you that income taxes are due April 15.

… I’ll wait until you’ve stopped hyperventilating…

Welcome back!

This week, as you fill out all those forms and crunch all those numbers––– or as you put them off just a little longer––– turn us on and jam with us to…

I hit the jackpot!

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Easter Tunes”!

Hi, everyone!

Doesn’t it seem like it’s been a while since we’ve had a holiday? Okay, so we just had St. Patrick’s Day a couple of weeks ago, but doesn’t seem like it’s been a while since we had a holiday-themed jam session?

Well, I think it’s been way too long, so I’m going to fix that! If you can hunt down our jam session on your radio (or computer or mobile device) down our jam session on your radio (or computer or mobile device) this week, you’ll find…

What? What glorious thing have I uncovered?
