Poem Aug 21, 2025

Show notes

Plath, Lorca, Whitman, OH MY! And now..the Dunbar sisters. Yes, indeed, 'tis POEM week and this is the poem prompt for the poem episode.

We're back from summer break and diving into the deep end with this week's Prompt: Poem.

Who didn't love the poetry portion of your beloved Literature classes? Who among us doesn't long for those days of iambic pentameter, sonnets and haikus?

Well, we didn't do any of that for this episode, but we DID write some songs. You can take up the poetic torch and get more into the genre as you so choose. Write on, dear listeners!

4th of July Jul 17, 2025

Show notes

If you're lucky to have saved up enough PTO that you're still on vacation, we got you. This one's the 4th of July just two weeks after the federal holiday. The freedom train is still going. Listen in.

Spinal Tap Jul 10, 2025

Show notes

Of course this one goes to eleven! Of course Hope and Emily are writing songs to the prompt, "Spinal Tap?" Tune in to find out what happens. And thank you for listening!!!

Ed Sheeran Jul 03, 2025

Show notes

LUCKY EPISODE NUMBER 20 for Season three. I think they mean, it folks.

You know we mean it when we ask Ed Sheeran to be our prompt and he totally said yes (Ok we didn't ask him, but still he would've totally said yes).

Listen in as Hope and Emily take on a Pop songwriting master and try to walk 3:30 minutes in his shoes. We loved this prompt. Now, go write your own Ed-inspired song.

Window Jun 26, 2025

Show notes

"Be the window, not the light." THat's what we always say over here at Prompt Queens, but also we didn't actually say that at all during this episode, but it was implied because the prompt is WINDOW, y'all. Listen in as Hope and Emily bring new work to every episode. Remember, the prompt's not the thing, the song is the thing and thanks for listening.

Raise A Glass Jun 19, 2025

Show notes

This is "Raise a Glass" two ways. Hope and Emily take the prompt in two very different directions and invite listeners to take the prompt and make it their own. Listen in to this new installment of two songwriters just hashing it out for better or worse week after week in service to the work. High five.

Drought Jun 12, 2025

Show notes

Don't worry. The rains of songwriting land gently on this podcast field, but even so, Drought was the prompt. Listen in as Hope and Emily talk about the prompt, share their new songs and also ramble about other stuff in a reasonable fashion.

Postcard Jun 05, 2025

Show notes

Welcome to this week's romp into prompts! The prompt is "Postcard" and so we wrote some songs. Keep an ear out for a future episode featuring a guest!! Remember back in the before times when we sometimes had guests On? We are looking into the future and we see one. Stay tuned and thanks for listening.

Impressionism May 29, 2025

Show notes

Marching Band, Memorial Day, Grilling, Frisbee, rain, life, Monday, cornhole, possibly burning the house down, federal holidays and the prompt was IMPRESSIONISM. This is our first recording back since before our California trip.

We love you, thanks for listening, write a song from the prompt Impressionism and we will see you next week.
