Even in education, jazz finds its place as David Nevins explores the role of music in teaching democracy. However, the dark cloud looms over Honda Jazz owners facing exorbitant insurance costs due to escalating thefts, raising concerns about the car's insurability.

In the realm of sports, Taylor Hendricks stirs discussions about meeting expectations in his rookie season with the Jazz team. To add a musical touch, Jimmy's Jazz & Blues Club promises a night of Grammy-winning performances, including the renowned YELLOWJACKETS.
