What is it about repetition that makes us feel, remember, and connect? In this episode, linguist, jazz musician, and author Samuel Jay Keyser joins us to discuss his fascinating book, Play It Again, Sam: Repetition in the Arts.
Keyser explores how repetition operates across music, literature, visual art, and language—not just as a stylistic tool, but as a deep reflection of how we think, feel, and experience the world. Whether it’s a repeated melody in a jazz riff, a recurring line in a poem, or a phrase in conversation, repetition shapes the way we communicate, create, and make meaning.
