Ty is one of the founding members of the melodic hardcore band Conveyer. He’s a solid dude who’s trying to do things right. This was a real fun conversation. I hope you’ll enjoy it as much as I did.

Ross and I get nerdy about challenging music. Ross uses one song to center himself… and I get envious. Music is medicine .

Joe talked about a song that was truly uplifting and helped to pull him from the depths of some serious shit… the song wasn’t just uplifting, it was and is inspiring. It influenced Joe to start a band or two… that being said, joe and his band Lightworker has given This Is My Jam an exclusive. You will be one of the first people to hear the song requiem. Enjoy!

This is the story of how a song can shift the trajectory of someone. Sometimes what we’ve always known needs a little tweaking… sometimes, all it takes is a new song to do the tweaking. Trevor Klopp is a really genuine dude who’s true to himself.

From a van bring high schoolers to play a basketball game to the present. Music can  transcends times. It was one guitar part that grabbed a young man… and later his son.

Reid can actually say Hardcore saved his life. But what he did with it after is quite paradoxical and cool. When someone intelectually joins two things that seem to go against one another, to say the least, a good conversation is bound to happen.

I know this is only episode #3 but I’m convinced that this is a very important episode. It is the story told by a man who hasn’t told this story very much. It is one man being very open. Josh didn’t want to share this story… but as he got going he realized this story needed to be told. Even though this particular story hasn’t told much… sadly, this type of story is way to common. If we can learn anything from this tragic story is that everyone needs love and acceptance… no matter what… Even if we don’t agree with it we still need to love each other. Josh, thank you for taking the chance to share this story.

This is my story. This is my jam. Honestly, without this song the whole idea of this podcast wouldn’t have happened. This is the story of a heavy moment that changed the trajectory of my life.

Originally, I tried to record this by myself but it was just to serious and probably hard to listen to. I asked Graham(from episode #1) to be my guest host. It was good to finally get this out there. I hope there are people who ca relate.
