    OOH GURL! Have we got a show for you!

To balance out the levity, we're sure to bring it waaaaay back to Earth with a discussion of this study--http://psycnet.apa.org/psycinfo/2015-39675-001/ --about how women's anger is perceived.

  • Episode 175: Lost in Emoticons Aired: Wednesday, March 2, 2016

    Oh boy..... Space Cadets, we're sorry. Both your hosts are super-hungry during this episode and, well, things go a little bit off the rails.... Especially with that Heather. Jeesh. Hungry or not, they're trying their best kicking it off with a pupdate and segueing seamlessly (ahem) into the news. The Squires of the Subterrain (The Official Band of the Sound of Tomorrow) provide the break music and they're back discussing beauty and..... pants. They promise they'll eat before next week's show.

    In this exciting episode, we're filing paperwork! Once the Tees are crossed and Eyes are dotted, we're off to the races with a pupdate and a distinctly podcasty discussion about sad vegetarians. A little KooKoo Boy brightens it up and then we're back with some alone time discussion, gender tax evasion, and superheroes of size celebration! You can tell we're all on some form of cold medicine on today's all new Sound of Tomorrow.

If you're even standing after all that adorableness, come have a seat on The Casting Couch where Ross and Heather are talking about casting decisions they find questionable.
