Here is a bonus wot parody I did as a duet with my daughter Emily. It is Father's Day here in Australia today and seemed a good time to share this duet.

What if I said it was a duet with my daughter to one of her favourite ABBA songs?

I thought it was going to be a doggie special guest with a yellow collar and grey ears 🤷

He's got it backwards. We should all quit our day jobs and work on WoT parodies full time.

I should mention that one of the mountains in the background of the whale photos features in the WoTapella The Hills Of Tanchico cover video.

Watched #WotIdol at 2am this morning and then had to get up at 6.20am to go whale watching. What a day and it is only lunchtime.

#WoTIdol has been an amazing experience again this year.

Huge thanks to @alyssapowers.bsky.social for the gift of her time to collab on my #WotIdol2025 entry. It is probably the best prize I've ever won. You went above and beyond to really polish my concept.

Enjoy!

The last parody a day until #WotIdol2025 starts tomorrow 🎉.

You probably don't know the original song/artist but I hope this parody still moves you. #JusticeForNatti

You get 2 parodies today to take us up to the start of #WotIdol2025 because it turns out timezones are hard and I'm off by one day.

This is from my #SympathyForTheDark series

Day 3 of a parody a day celebrating the upcoming #WotIdol2025.

Continuing with the holiday theme, here is the WoT parody that almost started the 2nd Aiel war. Like Laman I did not truly understand what I had done.
