January 22, 2009
Week of January 16-22. This week’s Jamma-Jam has a special inauguration theme. Beat produced by Upryz (aka Dan Fox), the music man behind such Napkins smashes as “Sphygmomanometer,” “Irrevocability,” and “Asparagus Pee.” Thanks to Joe Madaus for the use of his Azden SGM 1X, in a pinch. Additional thanks to Ian Brownell for his assistance.

January 16, 2009
Week of January 9-15. I shot this one entirely on my own, which I’m proud of, but hopefully quality will improve as I get better at it. News links are below – just fyi, sometimes the media outlet changes the exact wording of the headline between the time that I write the anagram and when I publish on here. But I try to make phrases up as little as possible. (Instrumental: “Back on the Scene” by Panik.)
