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.)

Whether we wear a lab coat or haven't seen a test tube since grade school, science is shaping all of our lives. And that means we all have science stories to tell. Every year, we host dozens of live shows all over the country, featuring all kinds of storytellers - researchers, doctors, and engineers of course, but also patients, poets, comedians, cops, and more. Some of our stories are heartbreaking, others are hilarious, but they're all true and all very personal. Welcome to The Story Collider!

Join Josh Clark of Stuff You Should Know for a 10-episode deep dive that explores the future of humanity and finds dangers we have never encountered before lurking just ahead. And if we humans are alone in the universe, if we don't survive intelligent life dies out with us too.

Boris Kyuchoukov and dr. Casper Albers are both involved with the University Council and in this episode they will give us an insider perspective on the University of Groningen’s politics. How do ideas get generated in the council, and what is the process through which a “baby” idea gets transformed into a fully grown administrative decision? Is the scientific method used in the development of the university? Why is the focus on University Rankings both beneficial and detrimental to an educational establishment? Is it a good idea to expand our campuses to Friesland and China? What new implementations can we hope to see in the near future? Should I vote in the upcoming elections? These are just a few of the questions we discuss in the episode. Feel free to leave a comment and let us know what you think!
