    Response Song to "You Oughta Know" by Alanis Morissette

    You oughta know. You oughta know that we'd like a chance to respond, please. And make it rhyme and put it out there to share with all of you.  It's a response song. Listen to the source text and then respond. WE chose to respond to none other than Alanis Morissette's hit single, "You Oughta Know" from her massively successful album, "Jagged Little Pill." COunt on us to always have one toe in the 90s somehow.

    The Edit Episode

    We are in this to win this AND go in and review what we did with the winning the first time in order to see what could be improved, up-leveled, cleaned up, what have you, for next time.  IT's the Season 4 Edit episode. We went back to Season 3 work and each picked something we thought would be worth the second look and that's what we did. Enjoy. Don't think of editing as a judgment on your first draft. Think of it as what you do when you care enough to want to see where there are opportunities to make it better. High five.

    Well I guess we're gonna call this episode 1 of SEASON 4! And I'm going to apologize that I seriously thought I had this all cued up but I didn't so it's a little late to the party,  but aren't we all?

    Something Holiday

    It's our Christmas episode that drops on Christmas Day 2025! We thought up something holiday and, it turns out, we were both thinking Christmas as our selected holiday.  Thank you to all our faithful, funny, friendly listenership. We are so glad we got to share the songs and the songwriting with you in 2025. See you in 2026!

    Hello/Goodbye

    And we're back and it's time for another Prompt Queens episode which means it's time for a new song and a new prompt. Today's prompt is "Hello/Goodbye." 2025 is winding down, we've made it smack into the final stretch and isn't that the time we start reflecting on farewells and greetings AND how Hope didn't get hired as a seasonal employee at Target? All those things. And so much more on this episode. Thank you for listening!!!

    Colorado

    Hello again! Just a quick reminder that we'll be posting every other week for now just so we don't get behind on posts. We love you and thank you for listening.  If you've been listening, you might already know that Hope and Emily love Colorado, have had lots of good times there and so, to honor our admiration, we wrote a couple of songs.  COLORADO. I need healing. And a new song prompt.

    Colored Pencils

    Hello Prompt Peeps! We're back. Thank you for your patience while we drove about and didn't write some songs because we got busy, but not we're back and we missed you and today's episode is "Colored Pencils." That's right. The school supply that, to parents everywhere, garners the response, "Really? Again? Do you guys even use these besides that one geography assignment where you have to color in the states and rivers but still see the words?"  We wrote two new songs and we're here to share them with y'all. Lots of love,   Hope and Emily
