The Vander Jam

Goooooooooood morning! As of this day, the Vander Jam officially goes worldwide as I sit down and talk to superfan and sweetheart @hkcorresponds, our East Asian Bureau correspondent. Come along on a magical journey as we discuss the places you can go in education, that good old expatriate life, and what Tom Friedman's bus driver thinks about the issues

Huge thanks to @hkcorresponds, then now and always

Gooooooooood morning! It's a real nor'easter out there but it's cozy in the apartment, cozier yet because I'm sitting down with podcaster, critic and friend of the show @roesler_brian! Come along on a magical journey as we discuss Baz Luhrmann, public education and the perks of living deliciously with butter and pretty dresses

Major thanks to @roesler_brian - go check out @theillegalpod, @adreadpocast and @treblezine!

Gooooooood morning! It's cold as Hell outside but I've got a guest bringing the heat, author, illustrator and bon vivant @justinboldaji. Justin wrote a book and you should all purchase a copy.

Come along on a magical journey as we discuss positive masculinity, artisanal bookbinding, and things we wish that adults told us way back when.

Major thanks to @justinboldaji

Gooooooooood morning! Mayor's back from a few downer days with a new edition of the jam, and deeply appreciative of your patience.

Goooooooooooooood morning! Doing it a bit different today and giving you lovely folks a peek behind the curtain. More specifically, the mayor calls megaproducer @mediumhollow to ask what words mean, the epistemology of sexy gremlins, our new "get" target, and how Walt Disney gave us Escape From New York.

Mega thanks to @mediumhollow
