今期雪條和朱古力請了兩位返場嘉賓雪糕和可樂上來一起討論獨立的人格是怎樣的，社會對獨立女性的定義是不是讓我們覺得我們就應該孤獨終老？我們會不會在嘗試走向獨立的時候過分苛刻自己而變得迷失？迷失的時候我們是怎麼面對的？
Note：本期為普通話節目

Il festival UMBRIA JAZZ si volge a Perugia.
La città è piccola, pulita, organizzata; è una città gentile e giovane, piena di studenti universitari.
Vi ricordate che lì c’è anche l’UNIStraPG? L’università per stranieri, Gli esami CELI…. 
UJ nasce nel 1973, dopo 20 anni di sperimentazioni e avventure, culminate con un paio di concerti di rilievo, tipo quello di Louis Armstrong e Chat Baker.
Nel 2003, dopo 30 anni, il festival della musica jazz assume l’aspetto che ha adesso: il primo festival, quello dei concerti degli artisti famosissimi all’arena santa giuliana – quest’anno c’è stato anche Lenny Kravitz, ma anche Nile Rodgers….; 
il secondo festival, quello del Teatro Morlacchi, per gli amanti del genere e i virtuosi della musica; completano il tutto la marchin’ band, nel rispetto della tradizione di New Orleans; e  le jam session, cioè le improvvisazioni, le riunioni non pianificate, tra diversi musicisti;
e il terzo festival, quello delle strade, dei vicoli, all’aperto, quello del “non solo jazz”…. Quello che se hai voglia di suonare, lo puoi fare e qualcuno ti ascolterà, quello che se hai voglia di ballare sicuramente lo farai, e se hai voglia di sorridere e battere le mani…. Tutto sarà molto semplice, anche essere elegante e seguire il ritmo della musica.
Io sono stata a UJ solo un paio di volte. La dimensione che preferisco è quella del terzo festival, quindi quella di strada. Ma anche quella dei concerti ai giardini Carducci, dove c’è un panorama sulla valle, tavoli da pic-nic, un palco con concerti coinvolgenti, tanta gente di tutti i tipi, di tutte le età, di tutti i gusti, di tutto il mondo, con cui brindare, ballare, cantare, parlare.
E dove ho conosciuto Giacomo e Loretta, con cui vi lascio a chiacchierare di questi due giorni fuori dalle regole.
Ah, un paio di curiosità: nel 2022 UJ è citato in una puntata dei Simpson;
UJ collabora con l’università di Berklee, a Boston, dove tra l’altro insegna un mio caro studente.
