“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Athletic Anthems”!

Leave a reply

Hi, everyone!

A few weeks ago, the Olympics reached the finish line. Watching athletes excel in the sports they’ve trained relentlessly in for years inspires many of us to work hard “go for the gold” in our own lives… but some great music helps when the going gets tough!

You know what they say: “When the going gets tough, the tough get jammin’!”

… No? That’s not what they say? Well, they should, because one of the best ways to get going when the going gets tough is to get a tune going in your head!

So let Jammin’ with Jamie be the background music to your motivational training montage, as we jam to some…

Get pumped!

Hi, everyone!

Around this time of year, many people find themselves faced with a decision: whether or not to attend a dance or other event involving dancing. Whether this event is prom, another end-of-school dance, a music festival, an outdoor concert, or any number of other events, the start of summer means everyone wants to shake their tail feathers!

Just the idea of dancing makes some people nervous. But don’t worry: we at Jammin’ with Jamie have you covered with this two-part theme!

Hi, everyone!

Last weekend sure was busy! Captain America: Civil War opened in theaters Thursday night, Free Comic Book Day was on Saturday, and Mother’s Day was on Sunday!

… Now that you’re done panicking because you forgot, it’s time for us to continue another grand Jammin’ with Jamie tradition and celebrate our moms, dads, and other parental figures in one of the best ways I know how: by jammin’ to…

Why? Because I said so!

Hi, everyone!

As we discussed last month, now that spring is here, we’re seeing a lot more animals again!

Also, Disney’s newest animated film, Zootopia, opened in theaters last month (If you haven’t seen it, you really should!) and Disney’s live action remake of The Jungle Book opens next week!

Some people complain about animals. I don’t see the point in that. Humans share the Earth with all sorts of amazing creatures, so why not embrace it?

Start brushing up on your animal impressions, because this week, we’re jammin’ to…

The suspense is driving me WILD!

Thoughts On: “Pee-wee’s Big Holiday”

Before we get started, follow Pee-wee Herman’s adventures on his official website, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and his new YouTube channel, and join his FREE Premium Diamond Platinum Fan Club!

I’ve written about Pee-wee Herman twice before. Both times, I predicted I’d end up writing about Pee-wee’s Big Holiday when it was released on Netflix.

… I’m psychic!

I was so excited for Pee-wee’s Big Holiday that I stayed up until 12:00 am PT––– 2:00 am my time––– to watch it the second it premiered!

This was how I looked just before 2:00 am on March 18.

Thank goodness I was on a different floor with the door closed… otherwise, my constant laughter would’ve woken everybody up!

That’s about how high I jumped every time I heard news about “Pee-wee’s Big Holiday.”

Here’s the trailer…

Pee-wee’s Big Holiday is written by Paul Reubens and Paul Rust, directed by John Lee, and produced by Judd Apatow. (You all know how much it means to me to see someone who’s both a writer and a performer!)

“Ha ha!”

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Election Lyrics”!

Hi, everyone!

If you’ve been exposed to any sort of news outlet in the past few months, you’re well aware that this is an election year.

Elections, especially high-profile ones, are, by nature, divisive. Passionate people on any side of any issue clash like never before with people on another side. Sometimes, there are intelligent, respectful debates of viewpoints in which both sides are listening and open to greater understanding.

… Other times, there aren’t.

With all the insanity, we all need a chance to some together for a special brand of insanity we can all support… Jammin’ with Jamie! No matter where you fall on the political spectrum, this Saturday, you’ll want to be on our team, as we jam to…

All in favor, say, “Aye!”

Hi, everyone!

Thank you again to all of you to stayed with us so patiently as we worked through unexpected technical difficulties last week.

To make up for lost time, I decided to not only carry over the songs we had to skip over last week for the sake of time, but also the whole theme, giving us…

Let’s do this! … Again!

Hi, everyone!

Oftentimes, it can seem like there’s just too much emphasis on romantic relationships.

So, after our annual Jammin’ with Jamie Valentine’s Day shows, I like to turn the attention to something that I don’t think gets celebrated nearly enough…

Then let’s celebrate!
