About this listen

News Jams is the day’s headlines, turned into music.


Every morning, we take the top stories—from politics, protests, tech, climate, culture—and distill them into original songs that deliver the facts with clarity and rhythm. No fluff, no pundit noise—just the news, scored.


Each episode is short, sharp, and composed daily.

1 day's news = 1 song.

All facts are sourced and verified.

All lyrics are original and informed by real events.


It’s the news you need. In a format you’ll remember.

Because sometimes, what’s happening can’t be summed up in a headline—it has to be heard.


News Jams is made with the use of AI.

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    News Jams is live, it’s July twenty-third,

    Twenty twenty-five—let the facts be heard.

    Five major stories, fresh from the wire,

    Delivered in rhythm, with truth that won’t tire.

    Bryan Kohberger: Prosecutors can seek death penalty for suspect in Idaho student murders

    Bryan Kohberger stood in court today,

    Facing four murder charges, the state wants him to pay.

    The judge ruled prosecutors can seek his death,

    For the stabbing of four students while they slept.

    He was arrested months back in Pennsylvania,

    Now the Idaho court brings formal mania.

    The defense says he’s not the man to blame,

    But the state says the DNA links him to the slain.

    Trump administration to supercharge AI arms sales to allies

    The Trump administration’s got a tech agenda,

    Boosting AI defense with a global vendor.

    They’re speeding up sales of battlefield AI,

    To allies worldwide with a Pentagon tie.

    Critics warn about ethics and the law,

    But Trump’s team sees profit without flaw.

    Autonomous drones and targeting tools,

    Getting fast-tracked with fewer rules.

    House Oversight Committee issues subpoena for Ghislaine Maxwell

    The House Oversight Committee made a bold move,

    Subpoenaed Ghislaine Maxwell to prove

    What she knows about Epstein and who was involved,

    As lawmakers push to get crimes resolved.

    She’s in prison now for sex trafficking charges,

    But they want her testimony under oath, not dodges.

    The GOP says the public has the right to see

    Who flew on the jets and what went on privately.

    Top UN court says countries can sue each other over climate change

    On July 23, the UN’s top court in The Hague made waves,

    Saying nations can sue peers for climate harm they’ve made.

    The advisory ruling underscores a legal shift,

    Nonbinding—but used to hold polluters adrift.

    It recognizes climate harm as lawbreaking,

    And opens the door for reparations for the taking.

    Though it won’t enforce verdicts right away,

    It’s a landmark moment on the global justice highway.

    Doctor who gave Matthew Perry ketamine pleads guilty

    A doctor in L.A. just pleaded guilty,

    Linked to Matthew Perry’s ketamine autopsy.

    He gave Perry the drug, despite the risk,

    Then texted friends, calling him a “moron,” real brisk.

    Authorities say he ignored every sign,

    Dispensed the ketamine well out of line.

    Now he’s convicted for the unlawful med,

    Part of the puzzle in how the actor ended up dead.

    That’s your News Jams for July twenty-three,

    From courtrooms to Congress to overseas.

    If you missed the headlines, now you’re in the know,

    We’ll keep it coming—next verse, next show.
