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…

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. SoT_605_FriendshipRepriseBy Ross Johnson and Heather Zajkowski

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 fin…

Another day, another Sound of Tomorrow! Today we're talking AI which is both hilarious and scary and turns out there are so many ways to phrase that pink/stink adage.... The it's GO time for go bags! Do you have potable water in your basement? Hm. And closing it out with a little bit on smart phones and social media. Phew! It was a show! SoT_603_Pi…

In today's exciting episode, we're trying hard now to talk about how awful everything is and yet. And yet. Some terrifying anti-Trans legislation has passed on the UK that we leave unmentioned and then we're off. But then we're talking about some new designer puppies and whether we could ever make our way out of the woods so that's...... better? Ma…

In a shocking turn of events, Ross has scooped Heather's scoop about Elton John making up to Madonna but it dovetails well enough when Michael Polston of You Eight It, Zazzcast, and The Queencast, among others, fame calls into the show! Why is Michael calling in? Because he and Heather have a brand new podcast where they're watching then then talki…

Space Cadets! It got here so fast! SoT 600!! Did we do anything special for it? Not really! But Heather trotted out that old theme song! Today we're talking about our weekend adventures and a little bit of sleep. Not bad, right? SoT_600_#SoT600By Ross Johnson and Heather Zajkowski

Alas, no, it is not the slashfic you've been waiting for; we're actually talking about Dirty Dancing, the movie, because Ross likes it! Heather? She likes Mesmerica 360. And then, are we living in a black hole after all? That does sound so bad, really. Closing up with some tips on how to refocus your energy because, what, did you think we were goin…

Holy Springtime, Space Cadets, it's an all new Sound of Tomorrow. Starting off with Memories of Mints, our brand new feature, we learn that Chowards and C. Howard's are..... things. The we're talking about The Radium Girls and other books which, sadly, segues perfectly into an exploration of the havoc being wreaked (recked? wrecked? reeked?) on US …

Ross is back!! We missed him so terribly! And that means we're back in action with a full force Sound of Tomorrow! We're talking breath mints (Wint-o-green FTW),The Great Filter (aka Savior Machine?), Hate Crimes at Heather's (not by Heather, jeesh!), and surprising news about your measles vaccination status. Don't you miss that Blood Worm Moon! So…

Run for the shadows! Your Favorite Co-Host is off this week so it's your DJHZ live in the studio and hanging on by a thread! But that's how you can tell it's live radio.

It's another DJHZ mix today and the songs? They're all about John. So, whether that's your name or not, pull on up and enjoy a few tunes. Sing along and substitute your name for John's. Why does he get all the songs, anyhow? SoT_595_JOHN Sound of Tomorrow Theme Song -- The Squires of the Subterrain Can't Keep Johnny Down -- They Might Be Giants Blu…

Rochester is a miserable frozen hellscape but there's always a new Sound of Tomorrow! Where we are talking all about dogs. After which, Heather remembers Penfield (the way it used to be) and it actually really sucks worse now, TBH. More howling and barking and we're back out to the tundra. Lacuna! SoT_594_Lacuna…

Wheeee it's another new Sound of Tomorrow. Today we're babbling away and even getting a little off track (go figure) talking about the Superb Owl and paper v plastic straws. Then it's on to........ They've found Jack the Ripper's killer! Wait, what? And then we're talking over some habits some random post on the internet suggested. Not too shabby g…

We're back with an all new Sound of Tomorrow! Today we're talking about a film that once was lost now being found and a glimpse into the House of Papyri! We are, as promised last week, talking about the ghastly and malicious executive orders our new US president has signed off on. And we've got some tips on how to save money when you travel, once o…

Happy Lunar New Year, Space Cadets! As we ring in this Year of the Wood Snake with fireworks and all things red, we are scared! And because we're scared, we have lots of politics and a little Chinese astrology on today's new Sound of Tomorrow. SoT_591_WoodSnakeBy Ross Johnson and Heather Zajkowski

We're kicking off the show a little sad on today's new Sound of Tomorrow because David Lynch is no longer with us on this plane. He was a wonderful artist and from everything we've heard, a wonderful person. And we stay sad but add some mad talking about House Resolution 7 which apparently doesn't even matter (except Heather's dad might have to wri…

In this exciting Sound of Tomorrow, we're kicking it off red hot with the question, "why isn't it cool and popular to hate Nazis anymore? We really really think everyone should think it's cool and popular to hate Nazis. Then it's on to decluttering. Heather will keep yall posted on how it's going and Ross will continue to have a Steelers blanket in…

In this exciting first episode of 2025, Your Favorite Co-Host and The Babe With The Power are back and.... kind of the same as ever. We're talking Greenland (we WILL buy you house!), dance apps and blood pressure, literacy, and a little bit of decluttering. Stick with us because it's going to be a ... year! Sot_588_E12025…

We're ringing in 2025 with a mix by your very own DJ Ross Johnson! Dance it up! We wish you all a happy, healthy 2025 and we look forward to good times with you in this coming year. Sot_587_2024TunesBy Ross Johnson and Heather Zajkowski

Happy Spacemas, Space Cadets! In today's Sound of Tomorrow, we're bringing in new and old for a holiday treat you won't soon forget! 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 aple…

It's the last live show of 2024 and your DJHZ is bringing it home with some holiday tunes for you. Happy holiday season, Space Cadets. We wish you a safe and healthy new year.

It's another new Sound of Tomorrow and we're talking towels! Believable that Heather has strong opinions on matching sets and rather more shocking that Ross really doesn't care. Then we're off to the kitchen talking, once again, about this article from Slate. 2025 is looking like a tasty year, maybe! Got a few fun kitchen tips and wasn't that a bre…

The SoT has been to the movies! That's right. We just saw Wicked and we loved it! Even though we can't remember or don't even know a damn thing about The Wizard of Oz nor the book or musical Wicked. Good for us! ACAB means you, too, Mr. Village People Cop so cough up that gay money and send it over to WAYO. Then whoo-whoo! All aboard The Logic Trai…

"It's Thanksgiving so let's all give thanks / for all the money in the banks /and all the food out on the table / here's hoping that the dollar stays stable." Thanks to Al Burian and Celibate Commandos for that one. It's a new Sound of Tomorrow and we're bringing you tales of Ross's TG weekend, highlights from an article Heather read before the sho…

We're back with an all new Sound of Tomorrow and we're so grateful to everyone who donated during the WAYO fundraiser for 2025! You know what? You can still get those perks if you donate NOW (Like, late November 2024) -- donate.wayof.org! Today we're talking whining and how, surprisingly, we're not the ones doing it, NY REAL IDs, and, sigh. Bathroo…

When Heather's away, Ross will play..... some Tina Turner Tunes for YOU! It's going to be a good one so put on your dancing shoes and get your ears ready for a treat. Sot_581_TinaTurnerTimeBy Ross Johnson and Heather Zajkowski

Well. What an interesting day. Trump won yesterday's election and Ross and Heather are in the studio screaming for money for WAYO -- donate.wayofm.org --. We have to talk about the election some. We have to! But then we're on to considering the various drinks we'd like to have as many of as possible right now. Heather's brought in a few real paper …

It's the first SoT of the WAYO Fundraiser for 2025, despite what Ross says, and we're getting a little whacky cause why not? We've got feet pics (for sale at the right donation level), The Switch Witch, used tees, and haunted places (like WAYO when Heather's there). If that's not enough to get you donating, we don't know what is! donate.wayofm.org …

oh boy oh boy oh boy it's almost time for the WAYO fundraiser to start and we couldn't be more excited! So we're kicking it off with... some chat about AIs and Heather's new.... boyfriend? And then it's a WAYO mad-lib!! Some people call us mad-libs, TBH, and we're not.... mad.... about it. Then there's more cool election stuff and just a little Hal…

On today's new Sound of Tomorrow, Ross has a lot of great stuff about elections and we even learn where the Monroe County Board of Elections is! You can google it, too. We're talking prop one and how some folks like to spin unconditional love as abuse. And Heather feels seen in a somewhat surprising way. SoT_577_NoMore Questions…

Space Cadets, have we got an episode for you! Heather has new cans (my cans!) and a Reader's Digest Update. Ross reports that the BBC honest and truly had to address the fact that people here in the US are running around saying the Deeps State Magic Man controls the weather (we're hoping the best for our fellow citizens in storm-afflicted areas--no…

We're making new friends and keeping the old (one is silver and the other gold) on today's new Sound of Tomorrow even if Ross is refusing to do a round. After some catch up and talk about how awesome we and all of our friends and how we all look great, too, it's off to talk about the VP debate and fact v. opinion. We're as insufferable as this soun…

Monday was the 17th anniversary of The Sound of Tomorrow's first episode so, to celebrate, Heather has erased Ross and is instead basically doing an hour long ad for her other podcast! (20minutesintothefuture.org) But she's also playing some fun stuff for you so it's not all bad. SoT_574_BodyBank_DJHZ Sound of Tomorrow Theme Song -- The Squires of …

Don your finest caftans and get ready for another new Sound of Tomorrow! Today we're talking Mrs. Roper and Three's Company in general and then we realize Heather's in for a challenge because, if she does her Buy Nothing Challenge right, she can't buy a new caftan. But there's probably some secondhand ones around. Then whaaaat? Actual follow up fro…

It's a new Sound of Tomorrow! Contrary to what Heather wanted to hear, Ross said "genealogy" and not "geology." More family stories and way fewer rocks. Spring-boarding from the topic for family history of mental illness, we're straight into Back to School stuff! And what stuff it is. More on this next week as we didn't even get to talk about what …

Another day, another Sound of Tomorrow! Today we promise some good silly fun and delve immediately into TERFism and problematic fandoms. We really can't be stopped can we? But then we swear! We bring in the fun with a Can You Believe It set of history facts! Closing it out with good old grocery shopping tips and it's a wrap. (Note from Heather: the…

Berry Puff Levant here with the Sound of Tomorrow news! On today's new ep, Ross has a few gripes that really aren't entirely gripes and Heather's adopting drag daughters left and right. A few condensed novels, some Indian Vultures, and Life on Mars and that about does it. Anyone got an 8 mile long straw? Because we are THIRSTY! SoT_569_HouseofAcrol…

Well, we're all over the map on today's new Sound of Tomorrow. Heather's getting over covid (but testing negative! Come on US gov..... make with more tests!), there's a full blue supermoon Sturgeon, etc., moon on Monday (witchcraft!), there's a rooster on the looster (calling all foxes!), and Imane Khelif is suing JK Rowling for cyberbullying (we h…

We've got your koala-fications right here on today's new SoT. Kicking it off strong with a tangent on STIs and koalas and then right on into SIFT method of verifying whether information you hear is true or false. We hadn't planned on much about Kamala Harris being the likely candidate for president but these things happen and .... maybe we're feeli…

I was doing so well until I announced that a show that hasn't been on for ages was coming up next! Ahh. But at least I didn't let any swears on the radio.

Here she comes, Miss Time Science 2024.... and she's coming for Miss Information's tiara next! What? Oh hi. That's right! It's a new Sound of Tomorrow where we're hot right out the gates with a Hot Pick and a story from the very life of Heather. She'll keep you posted. Closing out the second half hour with a revisiting of logical fallacies. Ooo, ye…

Ross is back and it's an exciting day for The Sound of Tomorrow! We're talking T-Shirts which is fun and then we're into some more grim areas. Ross has something in his craw and Heather has some laws to talk about. But we cap it off with a fan talk about the cool play Ross was in! So... typical SoT, really. SoT_562_11Questions…

Wow, for all the little gaffs and forgetting how to speak, it may as well be your old DJHZ what's in the bag! But believe it or not, she's dead sober. Just realllly tired. Still.

Kicking it off with a little "How we spent our Fridays," it's a new Sound of Tomorrow. We stayed on topic pretty well today so stay tuned for lots of artichoke razzing and some way less fun stuff about what JK Rowling's giving the thumbs up to now. SoT_559_ArtichokeBy Ross Johnson and Heather Zajkowski

It's chaos, Space Cadets, pure, off the wall hijinkery. But nothing can keep Ross and Heather apart, not late-running work meetings, not construction, not even the deluge! After the tiniest, miniest, mini-DJ set, Ross arrives and we take right off with snack chat, Reader's Digest, space news, a bear? What can you feed your dogs? And why is TV? Like…
