That's a wrap on this podcast! After eight years and 180+ episodes we're calling it a day. The three part show finale is up now: https://t.co/TcX3EVtEi1

Onward and upward my friends!

[Flash Forward 🤖⚡️🔮 @flashforwardpod]

@pellucid Hmmmm I scheduled the how to episode to go up after everything to try to avoid this exact problem but of course RSS is not always the most cooperative

[Flash Forward 🤖⚡️🔮 @flashforwardpod]

@pellucid Ahhhh yeah I worried that might happen but also sadly can't control how various podcast apps behave (yet, *evil laugh*) There are 27 total!

[Flash Forward 🤖⚡️🔮 @flashforwardpod]

@pellucid All 27 episodes were release October 31st, they're numbered. No need to wait, it's all here for you!

[Flash Forward 🤖⚡️🔮 @flashforwardpod]

@pellucid All the episodes were released at once. They're all available now.

@pellucid The link to which web page? The non-audio web version? There is a link to that in every single episode's description.

@LizEuclid (there are some pathways where he does get more of a say, and those tend to be the happier endings too)

[Flash Forward 🤖⚡️🔮 @flashforwardpod]

I wanted to start with this episode because one of the things you see in the Welcome to Vanguard Estates series is that the dad doesn’t get a lot of agency. Decisions are made for him, without him. This isn’t good, but it’s true to reality often. https://t.co/pachJatODC

[Flash Forward 🤖⚡️🔮 @flashforwardpod]

@LizEuclid I hear you! My goal with the story was to try and explore how things often tend to go as a way to force some of these questions. The narrative isn't supposed to paint a perfect picture.

[Flash Forward 🤖⚡️🔮 @flashforwardpod]

Today's episode also talks about the disparities in diagnosis and care for dementia along racial and socioeconomic lines. https://t.co/Ykt3XBEnrt

[Flash Forward 🤖⚡️🔮 @flashforwardpod]

Why don't we know what dementia even is? Will we ever find a drug for it? Are we looking in the wrong places? https://t.co/Ykt3XBEnrt

[Flash Forward 🤖⚡️🔮 @flashforwardpod]

What is it actually like living with dementia? What does it take to help someone who has it? On this week's episode we spoke with @KateSwaffer about living with dementia, and @alogcabininbk about caring for her mom. https://t.co/pachJatODC

Last week we published a big choose your own path story! This week we're starting the series of episodes that explains the real stuff that inspired that story. https://t.co/pachJatODC

Compelling formats stand on their own & often work across topics and mediums.

Study formats religiously & then apply what you learn to your show.

I saw Rose do this live once and it was incredible and I’m excited to try all the endings now!

@QuickQu97238744 I'm not going to try and change your mind or anything but just FYI #yourslipisshowing is a hashtag generally used to tag and identify alt-right trolls, which I don't think is what you're trying to say here? https://t.co/M7pt9BW5kh

By 2030, 1 of every 5 people in the United States — or 20 percent of the nation's population — will be age 65 or older. Are we ready for that? This series explores the future of aging, and the choices we all might have to make sooner than later. https://t.co/IxjXmiCG1J

[Flash Forward 🤖⚡️🔮 @flashforwardpod]

Starting next week we’ll be putting out episodes that dive into all the real stuff that inspired this series, from the robotics to the economics.
