We're back and we hope you are as excited as we are for season 2! 🎉 In this episode, we catch up on what's been going on for the last 6 months and talk about aural skills pedagogy. K&K are both teaching aural skills this term and (as always) we have LOTS OF THOUGHTS. Tune in to hear what we're up to 🎙️ and catch up with us!

Don't forget to drop by our office hours to send us questions, comments, or ideas for future episodes!

This episode features clips from "All I Ever Asked" by Rachel Chinouriri. 🎶

This week, we focus on grad school and specifically Kaitlyn's 🔥HOT TAKES🔥! We talk about piano lessons and group music-making, better ways to teach grad students, and practical strategies for teaching grad students how to teach. We also get into a speed round of our hottest takes, which was super cathartic, even if we flew a little too close to the sun ☀️ (oops - sorry not sorry!) Happy summer, and drop by our office hours to let us know what you'd like us to talk about next season!

This episode features clips from Lorde's "Royals," Imagine Dragons' "Radioactive," and Chappell Roan's "HOT TO GO!"

THANK YOU to everyone who has been a part of this journey, especially Steve Rodgers and the Cykler Song Scholars Program. We couldn't have done it without you, and we're so lucky to get to do what we do AND put it out there for everyone to hear. Hugs on the airwaves, kisses on the forehead, toodles, and buh bye - for now! ✨

For the last two episodes of this season, we share our 🔥HOT TAKES🔥 about music theory in undergraduate and graduate music school. This week, we focus on the undergrad curriculum and specifically Kasey's 🔥HOT TAKES🔥! We talk about equity, pedagogy, AI, what music theory can and should (and shouldn't) be, and how we both are "fixers." And, of course, we love the shallot 🧅 approach... you'll just have to listen to find out what that means. 😉

This episode features clips from: "Tell me I never knew that" by caroline ft. Caroline Polachek, "Sonder" by Barry Can't Swim, "Cowboy Take Me Away by The Chicks and "cowboy take me away" (cover) by Fire Swimmer.
