Episode Reviews

This is a perfectly fine installment of Flash Forward, which lovers of animals and the robo-curious alike are sure to appreciate. But I'm mostly including it here to give a shout out as this is the final episode of the show. I've said it before and will probably continue to say it even when Rose Eveleth isn't dutifully cranking out show after show - Flash Forward is the perfect show for the genre of podcasting. It is speculative journalism with elements of fiction, grounded in rigorous preparation and never lacking a verve and ever-so-perfectly calculated amount of quirkiness to keep things light while still taking them seriously. RIP, Flash Forward, or happy hiatus from podcasting, and all the best to Rose with whatever she’s got cooking in the possible or not so possible future.
