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.)

Join musician Chris Fafalios (Punchline, Another Cheetah, Pack) as he listens to different one hit wonders with a revolving door of guests (including his bandmates and/or people from bands that he has toured with). After listening to the back catalog of the week's artist, they decide if the artist is a one hit blunder (shouldn't have had any success) or brought the one hit thunder (deserved to be much bigger than they were).

In this week’s minisode, we bring some stories to warm you up before (the often-dreaded) Valentine’s Day. First, Cody plays a true-or-false game with Chris around three romantic urban legends, one involving a moose and a plastic deer. Then, Chris tells the story of one person’s experience at the haunted Hockey Hall of Fame with a date she completely friend zones. Your guess on the next topic is as good as ours!
