The iSophagus is any instance where, by swallowing a musical device or instrument, the swallower no longer speaks but emits music. Sometimes, the person who swallows said item can magically control what is coming out of their mouth. Barring that solution, the person must inflict bodily harm to themself to "change the channel." Oddly enough, all that is required to make no noise is to shut their mouth. It stays in the person until it is expelled by either a cough, hiccup, belch, sneeze, or pretty much anything except going out the back door. Otherwise it's simply forgotten about. Additionally, a character may receive radio transmissions on their dental fillings, often citing that the vibrations from the sound wave vibrate the skull and ear drum. However, this is based on the misconception that radio waves, a form of light, work in any way whatsoever like sound waves. They don't. It also only picks up one frequency, effectively giving the afflicted the ability to listen to one perfectly tuned radio station. Again, this is often brought on by some grievous injury to start or stop it, and to change the frequency. Sister trope to The Croc Is Ticking. This item is available in the Trope Co. catalog. |

In "Pluto's Blue Note", Pluto becomes obsessed with music. When he sits down in front of a radio, his butt hits the start lever on a gramophone, and when his wagging tail touches the spinning disc, music comes out of his mouth. The short ends with Pluto wowing the lady-dogs by playing a Frank Sinatra single. | |

A variation happens on The Jetsons: Astro swallows Elroy's anti-gravity toy and everybody believes Astro can fly. In the same episode, after they get him to cough up the toy, Astro swallows Elroy's handheld speaking computer, leading Mr. Spacely to believe the dog is a genius. | |

Tom and Jerry have several occasions of this happening. One occasion has Tom changing the station on the radio he swallowed every time he hiccoughs. In "Mouse Trouble" he accidentally swallowed a robotic female mouse programmed only to say "Come up and see me sometime." It becomes a Running Gag throughout the rest of the short that every time Tom hiccups you hear the same female voice saying "Come up and see me sometime." |

Probe's "Computer Logic": Mickey tells Austin about being able to hear voices in her head as a child that nobody else could hear. His response is to shine a flashlight in her mouth to examine it. He concludes that she must've had braces at that age and asks if she lived near a radio tower (actually, it was a airport). Accourding to Austin, it's a well-known phenomenon for retainers to pick up radio waves. | |

In a Spirou and Fantasio album ("Qrn pour Bretzelburg"), the Marsupilami once swallows a state-of-the-art miniaturized transistor radio (it is the Seventies), which somehow ends up stuck in its nose and starts working intermittently, initially startling Fantasio in thinking it can speak, then depriving him of sleep when it refuses to shut up, before picking up a distress radio signal and starting the plot. | |

Classic Disney Shorts: In the third Mickey Mouse cartoon, "Steamboat Willie", a goat eats Minnie's guitar and sheet music. Turning its tail like a crank caused it to play "Turkey in the Straw" (pictured above). "Donald's Ostrich" has Donald Duck come into possession of an ostrich. The ostrich swallows a radio and begins playing music. In "Pluto's Blue Note", Pluto becomes obsessed with music. When he sits down in front of a radio, his butt hits the start lever on a gramophone, and when his wagging tail touches the spinning disc, music comes out of his mouth. The short ends with Pluto wowing the lady-dogs by playing a Frank Sinatra single. |

Joey then makes Oggy swallow the tape recorder, and makes it look like Oggy is laughing by a remote connected to the tape.

The Goodies: In "Lighthouse Keeping Loonies", the fog is closing in around the Jolly Rock lighthouse. Graeme switches on the foghorn, startling an over-sensitive Tim who yells at him to turn it off. Graeme does so but the foghorn continues to blare, even after they repeatedly flick the switch, pull out the power cord, rip the foghorn to bits and jump up and down on it. Finally in desperation Graeme swallows the part emitting the most noise, whereupon silence ensues. Until he opens his mouth to speak. Graeme then sticks his head out the window so he can blare out a warning, but then ends up emitting an electronic squawk until a glass of water washes it down completely. The Goodies ended up in the stomach of a preserved dinosaur and were forced to manipulate its vocal cords to broadcast a plea for assistance. |

In an episode of El Chavo del ocho, El Chavo throws a radio at Quico, who swallows it, and whenever he opens his mouth he emits radio music. They manage to get him to a medic that makes him spit it out, but later La Chilindrina throws an alarm clock at him... | |

Batwoman: Kate Kane] has a variant of the dental filling version. Before becoming Batwoman, she suffered a serious head wound during her aimless years that was stitched closed with gold thread. It gives her the ability to detect electromagnetic fields from a short distance, though she can only sense them, not decipher them at all. | |

Celebrity Deathmatch: One episode's Main Event takes place between Courtney Love and Dave Grohl (and, technically, Billy Corgan) inside the Dome of Devastation. The dome is lined with various musical instruments and, during the fight, Love manages to force an entire electric keyboard down Grohl's throat. Grohl's voice briefly turns into a distorted mess of garbled keyboard noises while Love remarks that this is why "Kurt never let you open your mouth." | |

SpongeBob SquarePants: Inverted in "Band Geeks": Patrick's head gets stuck through a trombone, essentially giving him a long brass neck and causing him to make trombone sounds with every step he takes. In "Squidtastic Voyage", Squidward accidentally swallows his clarinet and starts making clarinet noises. In "Squeaky Boots", Mr. Krabs eats Spongebob's boots because he couldn't stand the constant squeaking. This backfires at the end of the episode when he gets the hiccups and makes the same squeaky noises. |

Occurred in the classic The Three Stooges short "Disorder In The Court" where after doing a demonstration of the previous night's musical entertainment, Moe accidentally swallows the harmonica he was playing. Upon hearing how he now "speaks" music, Larry and Curly proceed to use his belly like a bellow, and crank his arm to play different notes. | |

On an episode of Family Guy, Peter is talking on his cellphone while driving when his car hits a pothole. The impact knocks the phone out of his hand and he accidentally swallows it while fumbling to recover it. It stays in him for the rest of the episode and he operates it by punching himself in the gut. In one scene, he gets put on hold and Lois tells him to open his mouth so she could hear the song that was playing. | |

Lilo & Stitch does a variation of this trope. Stitch doesn't swallow Lilo's record player. But if you put his claw on the record, it works as a needle, and if you open his mouth, he becomes a phonograph. | |
