Change is Good
Y'all, Ross broke the internet! With his hotness! And his inadvertent looking like he was doing something very much other than working out on the elliptical! There's some good news from Kansas! And we're back on the topic of being sensitive to ableism and talking about disability! For us, it's pretty light on this week's Sound of Tomorrow.
Is it possible? Could it be? A new episode of the Sound of Tomorrow in which we're not furious for over two-thirds of the show? It is! We're talking El Gatto Bianco (El Gato Blanco, for those who need a translation), Heather tells tales of her continuing mental and emotional decline (but it's funny!), Ross reports on some remarkable women, and, see ya later, we're going to live on the moon. Rest in Peace, Nichelle Nichols. Well-lived and well-loved.
Talking high school reunions, bail reform, and personally-experienced conspiracy theories on today's new Sound of Tomorrow!
Summertime is in full swing and love is in the air so enjoy this repeat of the 2022 Valentine's Day DJ Set! xoxo--DJHZ
We promised not to be angry for too too long and, you know what? We lied. Talking Meryl Streep and the slippery slope to fascism plus Heather gives a brief rundown of things she was told she ought to be when she was a girl (spoiler--she did not succeed). But we clean it up toward then end! So, we tried?\

Well. It's hard to even know what to do, how to be, you know? How much can a person take? It just seems.... futile. But we're still fighting. Always still fighting. Also, we saw some movies!
This week, we're Murphing it up with our new SoT mascot Mound, we're talking about Juneteenth, and we're feeling the soul-crushing dread of yet more scarelore! It's a real journey on today's Sound of Tomorrow.
It's the show with the people who talk about the things and sometimes they make sense and sometimes they don't! Today we've got some hints to improve your life in general and some tricks to face--or even overcome!--any pesky phobia that might be making your hands sweat or neck chill! Plus, learn to pronounce "gephyrophobia"! All that and more on this new Sound of Tomorrow.
It's almost summertime, Space Cadets, and we've taken the day off to go to the beach! Alone! I did this Summertime DJHZ mix in June of 2019 and it's so good, I can't even top it so a replay it is. Stay cool! xoxoDJHZ
We're on a bit of a whiplash in today's new Sound of Tomorrow! We kick it off light and fun with a tale of Road Trip Adventure and somehow segue seamlessly (ahem) into a discussion of some gun statistics. Toward the end of the episode, Ross cites a number of the sources he references but here's the NPR one mentioned most frequently: https://www.npr.org/2022/05/27/1101774780/gun-control-debate-statistics.
Things you'll learn on today's Sound of Tomorrow (in no particular order):
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.
Goodness me, it's a new Sound of Tomorrow! We're staring off light with a tale of The Thing In Heather's House and a little disaster preparedness. Apparently Ross knows everything there is to know about radioactivity and space weather but it's all news to Heather. Then our very level-headed, fact-based discussion of reproductive rights devolves quickly into frenzied screaming. It's fun! We promise!
Another week, another Sound of Tomorrow right here for you! In this exciting episode, we've got thoughts on a commercialized Eid, we're talking about search engines and personal information online, there was some other topic in there, and we're giving out all our cooking secrets!
We've got all the tea on today's new Sound of Tomorrow, if the tea you're looking for is T as in Trans kids and TSA! (These are separate topics, BTW.) I didn't sleep at all last night so, if we talk about anything else, I have no idea what it was!
In this exciting new Sound of Tomorrow, Heather definitely has something in her house! We've been poisoned! Dot com! And what do you think happens when your room is too light? Trust us, it's bad.
In honor of Heather making Pao De Quejo over the weekend, please enjoy this rerun from the beforetimes--August 22, 2019.
Mmmmm..... Brazilian cheese buns sure do sound good, don't they, Space Cadets? You know who will never know if they are? We won't!!! Because someone stole the tapioca flour (and the battery-operated Christmas candles) off my porch. That's right--HZ here hankering for a hunk of Pao De Queijo, forever unfulfilled. But there's joy and light! Because we're talking theft on today's new SoT but we're also talking friendship and books Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to send Ross a Snapchat of the cute thing Nigel is doing right now.
Recipe link (good luck finding the flour): https://hilahcooking.com/pao-de-queijo/

I don't know, y'all. Ross titles the files usually.....But today we got some gay stuff, both good and bad! And we've got some cats. Plus, VC Andrews and Library Talk. And don't worry--there's some classic SoT sorrow and fear at the end. We know what you're tuning in for.
Nooooo, Ludovich is having a bad day and, when Ludo is having a bad day, we're ALL having a bad day! But still, the show must go on so, on this week's SoT, we're talking listener feedback (drop us a line at jimmyspaceboy@gmail.com), we've got a RuPaul ReCap with some possibly controversial opinions, and we're back killing all the mockingbirds we can get our hands on. Tune in! What else do you have going on?
Go go boots are always in style on the Sound of Tomorrow where we're talking about Anne Frank, some other stuff, and anthropomorphic candy!
Oh yeah, it's a new Sound of Tomorrow here in 2022! We're talking about adventures in Heather's neighborhood, Heather is scooping Ross's Hot Pick, Woe is HR, and remember that really expensive paper we all had to buy to use for resumes? That was weird how we did that.

Announcer Mike joins Ross and Heather in the studio for the Mari Lwyd Poetry Corner and a rollicking year end Hot Picks! But that's not all! It wouldn't be Spacemas without some skits and, ooh, yes, we have those aplenty.

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.
