Past Episodes

  • The Sound of Tomorrow--Episode 612: Fireflies Aired: Wednesday, July 2, 2025

    Summertime continues to roll on this all new Sound of Tomorrow. Heather has put in a garden and she's hoping for tomatoes! She's also learning all about fireflies and needs to tell Ross (and you) all about what she's learned. Ross has a report on Hetero Awesome Fest (spoiler: it was not awesome) and that is it for episode 612!

  • The Sound of Tomorrow--Episode 611: Two Young Bears Aired: Wednesday, June 25, 2025

    And we're back! After a long hiatus, Ross and Heather return united to the WAYO studios for a very "we forgot how to talk on the radio" episode. But talk we do. Rochester Broadway Theatre League and how they do a lot of movie musicals! ZooBrew: sad or no? Honey honey, honey. Latest TERF guidance is to take and disseminate photos of people while they're in the bathroom. And! Superman V The KKK. We didn't forget so badly after all. 

  • The Sound of Tomorrow--Episode 610: Syltax Error and The Voice of God Aired: Wednesday, June 18, 2025

    There's a genuine teen on the Spacebridge!!! That's right, Space Cadets! Ross is OOO and Heather is letting Syltax Error (and The Voice of God) take over. Today's playlist is 100% curated by Syltax Error herself and it's guaranteed you're going to flip for what she's put together for you. After the show, be sure to check out alllll the content on https://www.youtube.com/@Syltaxerror, too. You'll be glad you did!

  • The Sound of Tomorrow--Episode 609: World Famous DJ Knox Velour Aired: Wednesday, June 11, 2025

    Ross and Heather are, like, on at the beach or maybe in Paris (or more likely, at work and napping, respectively) while World Famous DJ Knox Velour DJs in from his echoey secret chamber! Knox Velour is spinning Punk Pride, local legends, and premium John Waters content. You don't want to miss this one!    

  • The Sound of Tomorrow--Episode 608: Pride Lite (A DJHZ Mix) Aired: Wednesday, June 4, 2025

    Ross is OOO so it's DJHZ stumbling around the WAYO studios! Not too many flubs, really, but more than one would like. But still--Happy Pride!! 

  • The Sound of Tomorrow--Rerun: Episode 344: Summertime DJHZ Aired: Wednesday, May 28, 2025

    DJHZ here! Ross is OOO and I'm up to my elbows in soil for the new garden bed so here, once again, for you, is a summertime mix to get you thinking about beach balls and snowcones!

  • The Sound of Tomorrow--Episode 607: Sleep Paralysis Demons Aired: Wednesday, May 21, 2025

    We got your sleep paralysis demons right here on the Sound of Tomorrow! We'll be missing Ross for the next several weeks but he's here today to critique Heather's story about seeing the Lack of All Color Stick Individuals which leads down the road to Cryptid Wikipedia. Is it a cryptid, is it Creepy Pasta? We'll never know. Then we're talking sleep and dreams...... and then more sleep. Pretty good stuff for a rainy, gloomy day. 

  • The Sound of Tomorrow--Episode 606: Turkey Vulture Aired: Wednesday, May 14, 2025

    As turkey vultures wheel high above the WAYO parking lot, the SoT takes to the air in a different way to talk about them and how Heather needs social media validation. Then we're off to talking about how everyone hates vegans (we don't! But you know what we mean.....). Keeping along the foodstuffs trend, we're off to microplastics (Ross's testicles are full of them!) and how you can get a few of em out of your kitchen (and ours). Tiny space update and we're out! Not bad at all. 

  • The Sound of Tomorrow--Episode 605: Friendship Reprise Aired: Wednesday, May 7, 2025

    In this exciting episode of The Sound of Tomorrow, we're talking friendship. Lots of tips n tricks for where to maybe make some new friends beat the loneliness epidemic for good! Also, Botox.

  • The Sound of Tomorrow--Episode 604: Oast Aired: Wednesday, April 30, 2025

    We're keeping it soft and light (for real this time) on today's Sound of Tomorrow! Ross got his Golden Girls cozy mystery and it was a hit! Heather liked The Residence. Bit of a sidetrack about micromini dresses and how maybe let's us adults not sexualize teens but then we're off to talking about our own medical stuff. Ross's skin is fine (very fine!) and who is Heather with a relaxed jaw? Will we find out? And then.... don't pee in the shower, ok? It's nasty.
