Welcome to The Jam Yearbook! This podcast started as two middle-aged guys taking a semi-deep dive into a single year of music in their lifetime. They never claim to be historians of music. They just love music. They end their episode by each sharing 5 songs that best reflects the year and build a massive playlist covering 50 years. Then they ran out of years! The show morphed into a monthly review of new music along with a randomly chosen subject to discuss each month. They rant and rave about the music in the world currently around them and assure listeners great new music still being made.
