    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 ways to slow down the perception that time is flying. After that? A fun drinking game proposal for if you watch the rally, um, parade from DC tomorrow! After the music break during which you'll enjoy The Incredibly Moses Leroy doing "The Fourth of July,: we're back talking TV. That's right--only TV. Not abortion news. Nope. Not that. 

  • Episode 345: Camera Obscura Aired: Wednesday, June 26, 2019

    Smile, you're on hidden camera! Aw, nah... you're not.... unless you're in an Air BnB? Hey, wow, that's right, it's a new Sound of Tomorrow from sunny summertime Rochester NY's finest radio station WAYO LP Rochester! We're out of the gate talking about Ross's travel adventures and then Heather butts in with some info on how to search your vacation getaway for hidden cameras! The Sunshine Fix provides the middle break with "Mr. Summer Day," R.I.P. Bill Doss.

  • Episode 344: Your Summertime DJHZ Aired: Wednesday, June 19, 2019

    That's right. We took a day off to go to the beach, babies! You know we have that experiment to do. So while I'm doing my interpretive dance and Ross is trying out his new swim trunks, please enjoy a summertime funtime mix from ME, Heather Zajkowski, your summertime funtime DJ. 

  • Episode 343: Clairvoyant Medium Aired: Wednesday, June 12, 2019

    Rule number one: keep vacuum cleaner hoses away from your genitals. That's right, it's an all new Sound of Tomorrow and we care about the health and safety of your privates and our own! After that Medical Hot Tip, we're talking about Heather's big Lily Dale adventure. Space Cadets, what's your take on mediums? And what's your take on me (take on me)? After "Hearing Aid," this week's TMBG DAS, we're off to Niagara Falls Comic Con!  NB: that unexplained mass on the moon is, yes, cheese. And a little drag news to round it on out. Can you take a man in spirit? 

  • Episode 342: Misty Cheboygan Aired: Wednesday, June 5, 2019

    We're back and flakier than ever! But the show must go on! So, it being June, we're kicking it off after pre-topic banter (tell me your trust circle stories! 585-542-5502, jimmyspaceboy@gmail.com) with 6 things straight people who go to Pride should know before they do and 4 reasons should definitely go out and support Pride! Rochester folks: look for Ross and his elaborate headdress in July! Yum.

  • Episode 341: Shut Up, Nobody Cares Aired: Wednesday, May 29, 2019

    And also you're annoying. Nah, we're just kidding! Unless we aren't! BUT--kicking off today's all new Sound of Tomorrow, Ross has a new thing he's testing out from PornHub! It's the Boner Buddy or I think that's what he was trying to get at, anyway. Look for us on Charlotte Beach if the weather ever gets above 45 degrees! After that, got some local sports news (I know!) and then "Malefic Dowery" by Of Montreal to reset our nonsense. Act Two is all about DNA testing and what of yours the police can get their hands on and we're out!

  • Episode 340: Kondo-Shaming Aired: Wednesday, May 22, 2019

    That's right, we're back in the WAYO LP Rochester studios this week for al all new Sound of Tomorrow and, boy oh boy, are we trying to keep it light. There is SO MUCH going on right now.... reading the news is hard. SO--we're kicking it off with a RuPaul ReCap! Who do you think is going to win the Season 11 crown? Let us know--jimmyspaceboy@gmail.com or 585-542-5502! After checking out TMBG's "Pet Name" (live in St.

  • Episode 338: Protesters Aired: Wednesday, May 8, 2019

    We're out of the gates with a great big skit during which we broke very minimally (pat pat) on today's new Sound of Tomorrow! After the verry long drama, we've got an Unshelved Mystery (whoosh) and then it's time to hear "Month of May" by Arcade Fire! The second act gets, frankly, more somber and frightening as we talk about anti-abortion protesters and the new bad on abortion in Georgia. I'm not kidding, folks... I'm terrified.

    But also: menses!

  • Episode 337: A Miscellaneous Wednesday Aired: Wednesday, May 1, 2019

    Gosh, we were mostly looking for people to call in today and let me know what they wanted me to leave them in my will but I guess all our listeners have some phone anxiety, poor honies! But we have tips to help that for you! And we have some stuff about BOOKS, yeah, we love 'em. After rocking out to a little "Psychotic Feeling" (my latest non-stop Of Montreal jam), we're talking diet culture and weight stigma. You know we couldn't keep the whole show sunny and fun!
