  • Episode 287: Farts Aired: Wednesday, May 9, 2018

    Welp, you know what? We completely forgot to give any info on how to register to vote. Ugh, can we not remember anything?! But, fear not! So your Friendly Local Babe with the Power googled around for a sec and would like to take this moment to direct you to vote.gov. It looks like this site had good info on how to register in most states so go on out and get that done! We'll be so proud of you when you do! <3

  • Episode 286: UNFILTERED Aired: Wednesday, May 2, 2018

    Boy oh boy, Space Cadets, we are rarin' out of the gates with today's new Sound of Tomorrow! Starting it off big with Ross's UNFILTERED screed against the Rochester area drivers and grocery shoppers, we're onto what's the latest video to make Heather cry (Hint: "By the Time You Get This" by beloved TMBG. Look it up. It's great. You'll cry, too.). We hardly even get those filters back on for a discussion of how Janelle Monae and Kehlani's coming out announcements were received!

  • Episode 285: Talking TMBG with Woody B Aired: Wednesday, April 25, 2018

    Woody Battaglia of WAYO's own Almost Tuesday (Monday nights, 9-11) is back on the SoT and we could not be gladder! After a deep dive into the origin story and provenance of Uncle Al's Coconut cookies which mysterious appeared unopened in the broadcast room DESPITE THE FACT THAT WE'RE NOT ALLOWED TO EAT IN THERE and a discussion of how many teeth Heather has stashed in the secretary desk in her dining room (told you I know exactly where they are!)!!! Woody and Heather go on to recount their fabulous They Might Be Giants adventure last Thursday!

  • Episode 284: Abderites! They're SO Stupid! Aired: Wednesday, April 18, 2018

    Do you like old timey Roman jokes? Do you like science and space news? Do you like Morrissey*? Then today's all new Sound of Tomorrow is for YOU! Actually, its for you even if you're kind of not into any of those things.

    *You're going to want to rethink that one.

    TMBG DAS: "Tractor."

  • Episode 283: Tax Time Aired: Wednesday, April 11, 2018

    It's that time of year again... No, not tax time? What are you doing reading the episode title?! It's time for Ross to try to scam Heather again! But no worries.... we here at the SoT aren't terrific at scamming. But we sure are terrific at talking! So.... in the first part of the sow, we're talking about phone scams for reals, we're slagging on Millennials, and we're trying to figure out what the heck Flat Earthers really think is going on with the Earth! (Hint: we don't get it at all).

  • Episode 282: The Alt-Facts of Life Aired: Wednesday, April 4, 2018

    Girrrls! Girrrls!!! That's right. It's an all new Sound of Tomorrow with an especially amazing skit that HAS ITS OWN THEME SONG. Yessss! It's all downhill from there, really, but in the first half of the show, we're talking windpocalypse and puns and act two is all about email! And maybe a little bit about the last dodo on the internet..... 

    TMBG DAS: "This Microphone."*

    *Lyric:
    "Kindness is killing off my unfinished dreams
    And walking away, just walking away"

    See what I mean?

  • Episode 281: Ross Theta Aired: Wednesday, March 28, 2018

    Beep boop beep boop, who is that handsome AI? Well, it's good old Ross Theta, beaming in to bring joy and cheer and aiiiiieeeee! Power down, young man. Power down. In this exciting episode of the Sound of Tomorrow, we're kind of all over the place even more than usual! Let's see how much I remember.... We're talking Facebook data, urban legends, Roseanne, dogs at the hockey game, funeral candy, the SoT All-Time Greatest Hymns Playlist, and what doctors *really* think of your WebMD searches! Phew. I think that's nearly accurate. Hm.

    TMBG DAS: "Tick Tick Tick Tick"

  • Episode 280: Bropropriation Aired: Wednesday, March 21, 2018

    All right, I'll admit, the title is just because we learned a new word today. In this all new, all true, all for you Sound of Tomorrow, Ross does indeed pass the feminism terms quiz with flying colors but ALSO, we're talking about Marlon Bundo! We do a Rupaul's Drag Race All Stars Season 3 finale recap! Ross continues his struggle with the idea of his own replicant! And there's even a little foreshadowing for next week. So tune in now!! Or I'll zap you with my Infinity Gauntlet!

    TMBG Dial-a-Song song: "I Left My Body."

  • Episode 279: Pi Day Aired: Wednesday, March 14, 2018

    Space Cadets, tune in for this, the Sound of Tomorrow Pi Day Extravaganza! Where we're talking Pi, we're talking our favorite memories of learning about Pi, our favorite recipes for Pi and pie (can you believe Ross doesn't like a coconut cream pie?!), and we might even be THROWING a pie! Actually, nah, just kidding. Today's SoT is even BETTER! Act 1, we delve into some Unshelved Mysteries and Act 2 is a RuPaul ReCap which you will want to hear if only because we resurrected the old RR segment theme song! Now that's even better than Pi, right? Right.
