Hi friends, it\u2019s Rose and I\u2019m back with a new series from Flash Forward. It\u2019s called Welcome to Vanguard Estates, and it\u2019s in your feeds \u2026 now! The gist is simple, but I wanted to offer up this little explanation in case you\u2019re like \u201cwhat the heck why are there thirty new episodes of Flash Forward all of a sudden???\u201d\xa0\nSo here\u2019s the deal. Welcome to Vanguard Estates is a choose your own path story. Each episode has a number, and a short title, and at the end of every episode you\u2019ll be presented with a choice. All you have to do is follow the numbers, or titles, whichever works best for your brain, and you\u2019ll be on your way. Simple, yeah?\xa0\nI personally think that this story is best experienced in audio \u2014 we worked really hard to score and sound design this thing and have some amazing voice actors along for the ride. But if you\u2019d rather read the story, you can go to flashforwardpod.com/vanguard to play through online.\nStarting next week, you\u2019ll get a series of explainer episodes, where we talk to experts about all the things that inspired this story. We'll cover everything from the neuroscience of aging, to potential image tampering in Alzheimer's research, to robots that can put your clothes on, to the dire economics of care, to whether we should have nursing homes at all.\xa0\nBut for now, head to episode one, and begin your journey into the not so distant future.\xa0\nLearn more about your ad choices.
