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.) Hosted and produced by award winning science journalist Rose Eveleth, each episode combines audio drama and journalism to go deep on potential tomorrows, and uncovers what those futures might re ...

Medicines play a critical role in ensuring that people at the end of their lives, and their carers, can manage symptoms, including pain, and remain comfortable at home. But there is evidence that the systems supplying these medicines are difficult, complex and often lead to delays in vital care that leave patients in unnecessary suffering. This in turn can increase costs for the NHS if these patients then have to receive emergency care. In this episode of The PJ Pod, executive editor Nigel Praities examines how this situation can be improved, looking at how medicines supply could be protected, the use of "just-in-case" boxes and how specialist pharmacists can ensure that patients with life-limiting illnesses have effective and compassionate care. Thank you to Tarun Nayyar, specialist clinical pharmacist at Birmingham Hospices; Sue Latter, professor of health services research at the University of Southampton; and Emyr Jones, consultant pharmacist and national lead for community healthcare in Wales for their input into this episode. Special thanks to patient Suzie*, who allowed us to record her consultation in her home. This episode was produced by Geoff Marsh. *The name of this patient has been changed and other details omitted to protect her confidentiality.
