3. Flash Forward

Website Apple Spotify
Flash Forward is a show about possible (and not so possible) future scenarios. What would the warranty on a sex robot look like? How would diplomacy work if we couldn't lie? Could there ever be a fecal transplant black market? (Complicated, it wouldn't, and yes, respectively, in case you're curious.) Hosted and produced by award winning science journalist Rose Eveleth, each episode combines audio drama and journalism to go deep on potential tomorrows, and uncovers what those futures might really be like. The future is going to be weird, so let's get ready for it together.MORE Host Rose Eveleth
