Jamming on the Job

Jamming on the Job is a multi-generational, music-inspired podcast for kids ages 4-8 and their parents and caregivers, starring Christina Sanabria and Andrés Salguero, the Latin Grammy Award-winning kids’ music duo known as 123 Andrés, and Grammy-nominated musician Pierce Freelon as BoomBox. Join them as they tour the country and perform songs about the world of work. Each place they go, they meet a grownup with a different kind of job who helps them along their way. As they learn about the new and inspiring career of the day and the skills needed for that job, they compose an original song about it.

In addition to exposing kids to a wide variety of career paths, each episode will highlight foundational skills relevant to each job, such as empathy, social problem-solving, and responsibility, as well as flexible thinking, impulse control, and persistence.

Produced by PBS NC for PBS KIDS.

    We love this podcast!!
    My daughter listens to these episodes over and over. They are fun and informative, and I love how Spanish is casually incorporated throughout. Highly recommend this podcast for all little learners!

    Five year old is in love!
    My 5 year old loves listening to Jamming on the Job in the car and at home. We’ve listened to every episode multiple times but her fave is Wind Turbine Service Technician :)
  • Kt12345tK
    Just right!
    My girls love to listen to these and we eagerly awaited the release of each episode. They a just the perfect length for our typical car ride around town. Thanks you for the music, education, and talent you share through this show!
  • sofaandcouch

    Holy bananas…

  • Strawbitty Yops
    Some of the best family music artists combine for and incredible Podcast!
    When I learned that Grammy nominees 1,2,3 Andres and Pierce Freelon were collaborating on a podcast, I was more than excited to see what these family music superpowers would create. The end result is even better than I imagined combining unique professions, SEL concepts, humor and music to lead children into multiple spaces that show diverse perspectives and experiences. These combination of these 3 talents is great in a podcast format, but the humor and physical comedy of 1,2,3 Andres with the skills of Pierce Freelon as an animated boom box needs to be the next step. PBS trust me don’t miss this opportunity!
  • Tommy & Timmy

    My 4 year old is obsessed!
    Mom is also a big fan! Can’t wait for new episodes and in the meantime we keep listening to the current ones. There is so much information jammed (haha) in these episodes they are worth multiple listens.
