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!

Episode 469: Wow
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.
May 26, 2022
Episode 468: Soup For Life
Things you'll learn on today's Sound of Tomorrow (in no particular order):
- Your car wants to kill you.
- Don't lick pus sacs. Sacks? Play it safe and don't lick either. Don't lick any buboes while you're at it, too, ok?
- We put a salad bar on the moon. You're welcome.

Rerun: Independence Day 2019
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.
May 12, 2022
Episode 467: Acute Angle
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!

Rerun: Pao De Queijo
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/
