Don your finest caftans and get ready for another new Sound of Tomorrow! Today we're talking Mrs. Roper and Three's Company in general and then we realize Heather's in for a challenge because, if she does her Buy Nothing Challenge right, she can't buy a new caftan. But there's probably some secondhand ones around. Then whaaaat? Actual follow up from two weeks ago when we promised we'd let all you parents out there know what to do if it turns out your kid is the bully!!

SoT_573_MrsRoper

We've got your good old DJHZ back at the console spinning some hinting toward Halloween tunes and more for you!

It's a new Sound of Tomorrow! Contrary to what Heather wanted to hear, Ross said "genealogy" and not "geology." More family stories and way fewer rocks. Spring-boarding from the topic for family history of mental illness, we're straight into Back to School stuff! And what stuff it is. More on this next week as we didn't even get to talk about what to do when your kid if the one who's the bully!

SoT_571_BacktoSchoolPt6

Another day, another Sound of Tomorrow! Today we promise some good silly fun and delve immediately into TERFism and problematic fandoms. We really can't be stopped can we? But then we swear! We bring in the fun with a Can You Believe It set of history facts! Closing it out with good old grocery shopping tips and it's a wrap. (Note from Heather: the show image would be the dinosaur one Ross was talking about if I weren't posting this from my work computer.)

SoT_570_Dinosauria

Berry Puff Levant here with the Sound of Tomorrow news! On today's new ep, Ross has a few gripes that really aren't entirely gripes and Heather's adopting drag daughters left and right. A few condensed novels, some Indian Vultures, and Life on Mars and that about does it. Anyone got an 8 mile long straw? Because we are THIRSTY!

SoT_569_HouseofAcrolin

Well, we're all over the map on today's new Sound of Tomorrow. Heather's getting over covid (but testing negative! Come on US gov..... make with more tests!), there's a full blue supermoon Sturgeon, etc., moon on Monday (witchcraft!), there's a rooster on the looster (calling all foxes!), and Imane Khelif is suing JK Rowling for cyberbullying (we hope Imane Khelif wins her suit and lots of reparations!). A bit of a content warning on this one: toward the end, Ross tells of the recent loss of his beloved Ludovich. He was a Good Boy and so very very loved. If you want to hear both your hosts cry on air, now's your chance.

We'll send you one and we will not stalk you! Starting it off with a long hot picks segment including a soon to be released Golden Girls cozy mystery and not getting murdered buying from FB Marketplace then we're onto what JK Rowling has to say about Women's Boxing and the women who box it sports!). And closing out with a little feng shui.

SoT_566_Speakers

^My actual speakers shown not yet in my actual house--H

We've got your koala-fications right here on today's new SoT. Kicking it off strong with a tangent on STIs and koalas and then right on into SIFT method of verifying whether information you hear is true or false. We hadn't planned on much about Kamala Harris being the likely candidate for president but these things happen and .... maybe we're feeling a little hopeful somehow suddenly? Regardless----you know what we say: get out there and VOTE---no matter your stances---VOTE.

SoT_565_Chlamydia

I was doing so well until I announced that a show that hasn't been on for ages was coming up next! Ahh. But at least I didn't let any swears on the radio. And you best believe I really truly almost played a whole darn lot of em. Phew!

Here she comes, Miss Time Science 2024.... and she's coming for Miss Information's tiara next! What? Oh hi. That's right! It's a new Sound of Tomorrow where we're hot right out the gates with a Hot Pick and a story from the very life of Heather. She'll keep you posted. Closing out the second half hour with a revisiting of logical fallacies. Ooo, yeah!

SoT_563_MissTimeScience2024

Ross is back and it's an exciting day for The Sound of Tomorrow! We're talking T-Shirts which is fun and then we're into some more grim areas. Ross has something in his craw and Heather has some laws to talk about. But we cap it off with a fan talk about the cool play Ross was in! So... typical SoT, really.

SoT_562_11Questions

Wow, for all the little gaffs and forgetting how to speak, it may as well be your old DJHZ what's in the bag! But believe it or not, she's dead sober. Just realllly tired. Still. It's another "Ross is away and Heather will play.... CDs for you" music mix!

Kicking it off with a little "How we spent our Fridays," it's a new Sound of Tomorrow. We stayed on topic pretty well today so stay tuned for lots of artichoke razzing and some way less fun stuff about what JK Rowling's giving the thumbs up to now.

SoT_559_Artichoke

It's chaos, Space Cadets, pure, off the wall hijinkery. But nothing can keep Ross and Heather apart, not late-running work meetings, not construction, not even the deluge! After the tiniest, miniest, mini-DJ set, Ross arrives and we take right off with snack chat, Reader's Digest, space news, a bear? What can you feed your dogs? And why is TV? Like we said: pure, off the wall hijinkery.

SoT_558_DysonSpherePt2

Holy cats, Space Cadets, we're back and we're ready to bicker some more!! After brainstorming a hit Hallmark Christmas Classic, we're talking about dogs on planes. Then it's off to travel tips and, alas, a JK Rowling update. Sorry to all you disappeared bi folks. Sorry to Taylor Swift for the vicious NPR slam.

SoT_557_BarkAir

Wow, Space Cadets, it's Suddenly Summer in Rochester and we love it but we're also...... Hot 'n' Bickery! But it's all in good fun! In this exciting episode, we talk about our weekends (wrestling match. improv troupe. a party. Look at us go!). Heather outlines her Adventures in Healthcare (HZ here---anyone wanna come and look at my back? I'd really like someone to check it out.). More news on why AI is bad. And then another loop on back to healthcare! Not bad at all.....

SoT_556_HotnBickery

OMG it's Ross's birthday!!! To celebrate, he's come to WAYO after work like he does every Wednesday. But at least there was cake. Today we're off script (what's new) with some scary political stuff and a JK Rowling update (spoiler: it's just sad, bad news) and then we're on to brain worms! That Venn diagram about us being at the intersection of apocalypse and still having to go to work is looking pretty accurate right now, isn't it?

SoT_555_BrainWorm

We've got a fun one today! Kicking it off with an epic Hot Picks sesh and then we're skipping the brain worms because Heather has an NPR piece relevant to some very current things that have happened in her life.

SoT_554_Lenders

It's an all new Sound of Tomorrow and you know what that means! More pickup lines from Reader's Digest. We've also got some WAYO inside baseball (we will remember now to touch the thing knowingly....) and, while we're touching things knowingly, we're making plans for a PowerPoint Anal Sex Party! After that: gay math and how to try to feel just a little bit happier.

SoT_553_BosomsAhoy

Oh boy oh boy, Space Cadets! Ross has been traveling and drinking those gay bar drinks and fighting with strangers at restaurants! And Heather wants to hear ALL about it! Plus, have you ever considered living with a roommate? Maybe you do live with a roommate? If so, we have some tips for you and a little insight into what it would be like to live with us, too (Spoiler: it would be bad. You would be sad.). All this and nothing more on today's new Sound of Tomorrow!

SoT_552_Tapas

It's an all new Sound of Tomorrow but Heather's still rolling out her pick up lines from Reader's Digest! Are you from Toledo? Because you're the only toe I..... lido. Um, yeah, needs some work. We've go Twitter happenings (not good) and gardening tips (good) and that's about it? Tune in anyway. We're always a good time!

SoT_551_GardenheadPt4

We're back live in the studio with a brand new episode! Talking about our travels and what we did for the big eclipse (Norse cosplay. It was Norse cosplay.). We also calculated the new lunar time scale and, what? More Madonna? You know it.

SoT_550_Totality2024

Madonna - Devil Pray
Madonna & Joe Henry - Guilty By Association
Madonna - Impressive Instant
Madonna - Body Shop
Madonna - Till Death Do Us Part
Madonna - Sooner or Later

Well..... grab yourself a big bowl of beef stew and some biscuits because it's Sound of Tomorrow time! There's a cadaver in Heather's tap water. It was bound to happen. We have caller in to talk about it and then Ross has more premium Panspermia content! Welcome to our new SoT mascot, Panspermy!! Look out for the Devil Comet and Eclipse coming soon (wear your Eclipse glasses for the latter!). And then everything is horrible again.

SoT_547_CorpseWater

It's the Sound of Tomorrow! Ross wants to know where Kate Middleton is. Heather, as usual, has no clue but she still won't shut up about the Glass Spider Tour and Viktor Manoel. Have you seen anyone Waack? Then we're somehow even getting gayer. And finally? The sad truth about how short the path from TERF to Holocaust Denier really is.

SoT_546_Waacking

Well, it's a show..... Space Cadets! Today we're talking and traders and Traitors, we've got an orange in a sock, anyone know how we can get on reality TV? Heather has remembered how to transfer calls to the console. Panspermia! Wooly mammoths. Oh, RuPaul.... come on.

SoT_545_Panspermia

Well, it's a show..... Space Cadets! Today we're talking and traders and Traitors, we've got an orange in a sock, anyone know how we can get on reality TV? Heather has remembered how to transfer calls to the console. Panspermia! Wooly mammoths. Oh, RuPaul.... come on.

Download SoT_545_Panspermia

Don your red petticoats, Space Cadets, because it's Leap Day! We've got little known Leap Day traditions, Ross pronouncing German words, Heather taking a stab at some other not-English, and plenty of talk about the upcoming nuptials. Plus! Things Reader's Digest (A Trusted Friend in a Complicated World) says no one says anymore but we kind of think we still say some of the stuff.

SoT_544_LeapDay

Got a little mixed bag here on today's Sound of Tomorrow. Ross has a Madonna update, thank goodness, and Heather has some Bowie-related research to add to that. Then we're going to hospice care. Not into hospice care. Not yet. Just covering the topic. Here's hoping some day our insurance will recognize our eyes as being parts of our bodies!

SoT_543_Hospice

Hey Space Cadets, are you the acid to our litmus paper? Because every time we meet you we turn bright red. Happy Valentine's Day! For you, our sweet little sweeties, we have an actually fun ep where we're talking about masturbation (don't get too aroused--its still us talking about it. Remember our show on porn?) and we have some premium Sexy Single Seniors (old folks, not high schoolers, to be clear) content straight from Heather's new favorite site: Reader's Digest online (A Trusted Friend in a Complicated World).

SoT_542_IonicBond

We're back with another exciting Sound of Tomorrow! After a very brief discussion of Taylor Swift, it's an Amelia Earhart Update! Ross has an excellent queer history lesson for everyone. And then..... fur and leather: the quandary.

SoT_541_Alexander

Welp, it's finally happened. Electric cars are ganging up to take down the electric grid in [town name here]. Prepare for the rolling blackouts. It's a nationwide frenzy that's absolutely not true, all on today's new Sound of Tomorrow. Also: butter coffee.

SoT_540_TheGrid

It's a new day and a new Sound of Tomorrow! We're all hopped up on Pizza Wizard and Ross is still talking about Madonna! And Heather still has OCD. But not quite as bad now.

SoT_539_OCD

The temperature is cold but the Sound of Tomorrow is HOT in today's new episode!! Ross has tales of seeing Madonna and, wow, was she great!! And get your bingo cards ready (DON'T do the drinking game!): Got a list of all the stuff Trump is promising to do if (when) reelected in 2024. Will any of the items dissuade the Trump voters in Heather's life from casting a ballot for him? Probably not.

SoT_538_2024Bingo

It's the Sound of Tomorrow! For those of you who care about moon stuff, it's the first new moon of 2024 on 1/11/2024. Get your black salt ground or whatever it is you have in mind. In today's episode, we're talking about Madonna and all the gross ageism and sexism directed so openly toward the ultra famous, talented, and successful mega-star. Also--we're mad at the Pope. Go figure. Til next week, stay aroused, Space Cadets!

SoT_537_NewMoon2024

It's a new year and a new Sound of Tomorrow! Or, not really.... we're still up to our usual antics. In this exciting first show of 2024, we're looking up arena sizes and talking about big show, we've got some generational commentary, and we're debunking NPRs projected tech trends for the new year. Also, Heather really is horrible at fantasizing.

SoT_536_Fantasies

We're ending 2023 right, Space Cadets, with an extended cut of us talking about being aroused. It's the show kick off you've been waiting for! Then into some Resolutions Lite, some really sad bad scam updates, and a little climate cheeriness to end on a high note. Thanks for sticking with us the whole year through and we'll see you all again in 2024!

SoT_535_Aroused

It's solstice time, Space Cadets, and don't forget the last full moon of the year, the Cold Moon, on Tuesday December 26! On today's SoT, we've got solstice facts and proof of Heather's ever unraveling grip on the nature of time. We've got the confederate monument. And we've got yet another new scam!

SoT_534_Solstice2303

Oh the weather outside is frightful, but the SoT is still delightful. On this week's episode, we're talking about tipping, we have some updates and musings on dogs, hey, yo, don't donate to The Salvation Army! They're all around bad! But we have a few suggestions for better places (Heather here with a note: The South Wedge Food Pantry is now called The People's Pantry if you're looking for it.). Stay warm, y'all, and remember: everyone just wants cash.

SoT_533_TipJar

It's that time again--time for new Sound of Tomorrow! In this exciting episode, we're talking about travel! We're talking about odds and ends! That's right: we've got friendliest cities, we've got the word of the year, and we've got Norman Lear. What we don't have is Heather's voice but that's ok. She's just hoarse from all the laughing.

SoT_532_RossRizz

It's cold in Rochester, NY, Space Cadets, and you know what that means! Ross and Heather are CRANKY!! We're worried about new respiratory illnesses--especially the canine one. Ross doesn't like that Heather and her [made up author name here] guy say The Blue Zone is a lie, and Heather's somehow got it in for any blankets that aren't on a proper bed. Get ready for 6 more months of our frozen flailing!

SoT_531_BlanketsII

Guuurl.... It's a new Sound of Tomorrow and, in a headline that smells a little like James Madison's crystal flute, we're talking about the uproar and outrage about the recent reclassification of Roman emperor.. empress? Elagabalus. And also the fabulous utopia Elegapolis, werk! More nuanced and interesting is moving onto a discussion of Louisa May Alcott and her many times over stated male identity. Heather learned a lot today, that's for sure! Closing it out with a bit on more scams to watch out for and into the night we go!

SoT_530_Elegapolis

It's a new Sound of Tomorrow but Heather has the same old cramps. Or, different? Worse? Or the worse ones are back? Perimenopause is something else, y'all. We'll check with Suzanne Sommers and get back to you. Otherwise, we're mostly talking scams and punching teens with a little AI throw in to spice things up. The Beatles are overrated! Come at us. We're in fighting shape from punching all those teens.

Download SoT_529_PunchingTeens

We did it!! With your support, we achieved the WAYO 2024 Fundraiser goal! But there' s still time to donate! Donate.wayofm.org is the place to be!

In the exciting episode of the Sound of Tomorrow, we're accidentally destroying the studio, we're talking about film fests and regionalisms (and made up vocabulary) and tai chi! Plus a super secret hidden little moon. Aw.

SoT_528_Strokey

Space Cadets, it's time! Open up those wallets and give generously (according to your means) to the WAYO 2024 Fundraiser!! Get some swag and feel great about yourself by supporting WAYO and The Sound of Tomorrow for another year!! In this exciting episode, of course we're talking about the fundraiser! Also, did you know that the WAYO studio is haunted? We found out today. Hm. Even scarier, Ross refuses to set up a movie date with Heather. Whyyyy? And, while you're donating so generously, think about buying some cake mix for your local food pantry.

SoT_527_HandFruit

Ah, Space Cadets, spooky season is upon us and, even though we have no Terrortacular for you this year, we're still in the Halloween mood! We're talking trick or treat niceness, costumes, as in, this is an actual message Heather received before we went on air, "Do you want to go out in costume this weekend or just dress normally and have everyone think we're going as vampires?," and Ross has a list of spookily queer movies that are fun for the whole family and maybe even Heather!

Don't forget to catch Heather on Halloween Night:

MidValley Mutations Tuesday, October 31, 9-11 Eastern.

https://wfmu.org/sheena -- open playlist and chat and look for the zoom link OR message her at jimmyspaceboy@gmail.com and she'll send it to you! Don't want to talk live on air? Send Heather a voice memo and she'll make sure it gets included!

SoT_526_CostumeParty

Wow, yeah, no, Heather was on the struggle bus with the buttons today. No theme for you! Which... that's fine. You've heard it before probably. We're talking the horrific state of politics and current events for most of the show but we bring it up at the end with meteorite fun and a little Netflix "What are Ross and Heather watching" segment. Spoiler: we're watching the same show!

SoT_525_Fireballs

Ah, we have fun, don't we. On this exciting episode, we're talking flu-sters and boosters, Joe Biden's bro (CW: toilet seat talk), overfishing on Europa and is the water delicious to drink or delicious to sit it, is dog pee delicious to drink or delicious to sit it, and Heather's cat woes. Good times for all on today's new Sound of Tomorrow.

SoT_524_Europa

Y'all. I can't go back to reddit. I did Google "'trees of death' reddit" and came up with literal, apparently, trees of death, but nothing that makes sense. Ross suggested after the show that the trees of death that one person was going to set ablaze were probably cell towers and I think he's right. So that's what we're doing, babies. On this week's sound of tomorrow, we have follow up on the government safety album including feedback from exactly one child! We have more conspiracy theories than you can shake a stick at! And we have Jimmy Carter. What more could you want?

SoT_523_Ablaze

Wow, what a show! Swan Songs has dropped E1--check it out now at swansongspod.com! There's a full Harvest Supermoon on September 29! (Come on. Dates are hard, ok?) Download your copy of We're Safety Now Haven't We HERE and order up your next batch of covid tests HERE.

The most exciting part of this episode is that Ross is launching a new podcast!! This is so exciting! Search for and subscribe to Swan Songs Podcast in your podcatched of choice because you are not going to want to miss one single episode of this!! We're also talking Of Montreal, train travel, poor behavior in the theater, and fidgeting this episode. Music break is Fugitive Air by Of Montreal. Here's hoping we remembered to bleep that one swearsy.

SoT_521_SwanSongsPod

Wow, wow, wow, Ross and Heather gonna preach, to quote a favorite song of ours, on this ep of The Liberal Weenie Show!! Men are peeing wrong in the US and they better be washing their butts and hands, ok? You know what? Let's everyone wash their butts and hands. That'll do it. And do the rest of these things to live a super long time. Even as that prospect might sound less than appealing right at this very moment.

SoT_520_BlueZone

And we would love for the US to develop some programs for the unhoused like that have in Helsinki. Because it's still the Sound of Tomorrow and it can't be just avocado toast and dancing around the yard naked

A new day, a new SoT and we're talking all things bathing! Or not bathing as the case may be. Plus some LGBTQIA+ good news and a few HOT PICKS! Top it off with a little car talk and we're...

We're getting our flirt on in today's new Sound of Tomorrow! What else are we talking about? Truly, I've already forgotten. But I'm sure it's fun! SoT_434_FinallyFlirting

Got A little Xmas in July rerun for y'all today! While we're up recording some holly jollies for the SoT Holiday Extravaganza 2019, we're playing a little holiday time music for YOU! Disclaimer: this year's holiday mix includes 89% fewer...

In this exciting episode, we're talking thank you notes from cats! Neighborhood pages! A racist white woman tries to assault a Black woman who was just trying to get her free panty and then fake faints! And.... a Life Hack...

On this week's exciting episode, Ross is scared of devils and goats, we're both scared of how teachers are being fired for telling their classes about American history, and Heather fell for the Clean Beauty marketing ploy. SoT_432_Scourges

Happy 4th, everyone! Hope you're not hiding under the sofa from the fireworks but, if you are, we've got something to block out the noise: this here Sound of Tomorrow! Kicking it off clumsily but getting in gear talking about...

Starting off this week with an excellent story of someone handling their leaked sex tape with grace and style and moving into a sharp non-segue with a tale of Heather Buys a Car! Then we're talking music and stay tuned...

Your Favorite Co-Host, Ross Johnson is out of the office today so you're left with DJ Heather holding down the old airwaves. The DJ set's called something like "CDs I Found in My Car" or "Guess How Old I Am...

Overcoming tech issues, it's a brand new Sound of Tomorrow! Where we're talking vaccines, we're talking GHOSTS (when are we not), and we're talking Critical Race Theory as best we can! SoT_430_GhostThrouple

It's Pride Month so today we're talking all about..... real estate? And some HOT PICKS!!! SoT_429_CougarMonth

In this exciting new episode of The Sound of Tomorrow, we get totally sidetracked talking about the nanny cam Heather has trained on herself for her most recent bout with insomnia! Who knew she and her demon lover spent so...

I know, I know.... I was supposed to call this episode "Episode 224: Ross Has a Tiny Tiny Bladder." But we almost always name shows with guests after the guests! Because I'm lazy and it totally works! So--needless to say, this is a fun fun one today because we are joined in the studio by the one and only Malcolm Whitfield (www.malcolmwhitfield.com, if he's remembered to pay SquareSpace after all)! We're talking about what Malcolm's been up to and some personality stuff and we're refuting some of the anti-trans nonsense spouted by a certain Milo, no not the cat from Milo and Otis (Milo was the cat, right? I swear, I saw the movie but it's been a long time). Plus---a caller!!! We have it all on this week's Sound of Tomorrow.

Music today from Visionstain with "Wall O' Worry."

In this exciting episode of The Sound of Tomorrow, guess what! No, you'll never guess: we're talking about vaccines and masks. Again. And the CDC. Ok?

SoT_427_Fidelio

Politics! Statistics! And post-vaccinated wilding. Plus much much more on today's new Sound of Tomorrow!

SoT_426_MissingAvocado

A new day, a new Sound of Tomorrow where your fully vaccinated hosts are talking about things! Ross has a story to tell, both friends gleefully report that the terrifying Digidog has been sent to a nice farm Upstate, and then we've got some irony! So good.....

SoT_425_PandemicWerewolf

In this exciting Sound of Tomorrow, we're talking, yes, you guessed it, Covid 19 and how we've gotten our vaccines! We're even talking vaccine passports because we will not stop no matter how much you want us to. Then, guess what else? Yeah, that's right! Drag Race! Are we talking about anything else? I've already forgotten! Lemniscate, post, please!

SoT_424_SmorgasbordIV

Space Cadets! We got thrown in YouTube jail!! Who would have thought..... So, we talk about that for a while, we have a little Drag Race discussion, there's a Clover Lawn Update, we're pretty much just catching up, really. But there's also fascinating facts you won't want to miss!

SoT_423_YouTubeCriminals

We liked this interview so much, we wanted to play it again!

We did it! Space Cadets, on this very special Sound of Tomorrow, we kick it off with a skit written by the fantastic Austin Rich (featuring an original track by good old HZ herself) and then, after a little black hole update, Lee Chabowski and Rick Brame from Bloody Nature (www.bloodynature.com) call in from their shooting trip in Florida! By shooting, we mean rolling film, of course. Sounds like host of Bloody Nature Dale Attenbrow is handling enough of the, like, gun shooting.... eek. It was a fun call, though, despite the bickering and we sure do hope Stacy is going to pull through! We bid Lee and Rick a fond farewell (stay safe, guys!) and, during the break, patch in, yes, the very writer of the very intro skit Austin Rich calling in from his tour of Oregon! Austin's in clubs, on the air all over the place, and selling all kinds of goodies over at wtbc.bandcamp.com

Music from Lee Chabowski's awesome band The Modern Airline with "Monster on the Campus" (live on WFMU)!

Sot_334_bloodynature

Ahh, in this exciting episode, we're kicking it off hot right out the door with vaccine passports of all kinds! Then it's off to the lighter topic of Do We Even Know How To Socialize Anymore (not that I ever did), and we finish up with the much more serious charge of the lawsuit brought earlier this week against RPD.

SoT_422_VaxPowers

Ah, the Devil, it's a new Sound of Tomorrow! This episode, we're talking doughnuts! We're talking devils! Something about canned ham! We're talking.... I can't remember. Vaccines maybe? I really don't know, y'all. We recorded a couple days ago......

SoT_421_TheDevilsHam
