"We are being pitched futures all the time. Every advertisement, every
political campaign, every quarterly budget is a promise or a threat about what
tomorrow could look like. And it can feel, sometimes, like those futures are
happening, whether we like it or not—that we’re simply along for the ride. But
the future hasn’t happened yet. We do, in fact, get a say, and we should seize
that voice as much as we possibly can. But how? I’ve spent the past eight years
making over 180 episodes of a podcast about the future called Flash Forward.
Here, in a three-part series, are the big things I’ve learned about how to
think about what’s possible for tomorrow."
