Name: A Drone of One's Own by Flash Forward
Duration: 17 min 57 s
Description: What does the world look like when everybody with a smart phone also has a drone?

Today we travel to a future where humans share our robotic knowledge with the rest of the animal kingdom—for better, and for worse.

This is also the LAST EPISODE of Flash Forward 1.0. Listen to the end for my sappy goodbye to this version of the show, a show that has really meant the world to me.

Vanguard Estates: The True Cost of Care

This is the final series for Flash Forward ever. The finale is three episodes, each about some aspect of future thinking that has been on my mind. It's part manifesto about the future, part love letter to listeners, part summation of what I've learned from making Flash Forward for eight years. I really hope you like it!

A Drone of One's Own

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.
