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 ...

Pardalote Consulting - https://www.pardaloteconsulting.comWeather Guard Lightning Tech - www.weatherguardwind.comIntelstor - https://www.intelstor.com Allen Hall: Residents in Evan an English Town are complaining about the noisy chickens. There was a flock about 100 feral chickens. Now, Joel, down in Texas, you have feral hogs. They are everywhere. But I have not seen feral chickens. Feral chickens are easier to get a hold of. Joel Saxum: Then the feral hogs, I think, but the chickens you got to watch out for because they can't survive in the heat by themselves They got to Allen Hall: have some shade. Dude, do chickens travel in packs like wolves? You know what I'm saying? What is it? What does a feral chicken flock look like? Joel Saxum: I don't know if it's the same they have the same goals as a flock of wolves or a pack of wolves But they do travel in groups like Allen Hall: turkeys it's this, it's something that happens down in Australia too, Rosemaridia, feral chickens. It seems like a UK event. Rosemary Barnes: No, we have native chickens. There's a lot of native, they're just a native bird. That is a kind of chicken, and yeah, they run around being chickens in the wild. Allen Hall: It seems like the chickens are the most defenseless creatures on the planet, right? And because one, they're so tasty, and two, they have no defenses. Rosemary Barnes: They play chicken. Allen Hall: Ah, the sage grouse is worse. Rosemary Barnes: Yeah, the pheasant is the stupidest animal, the stupidest bird, I think that's why I always think it's yeah, like particularly lame when people go hunting for pheasants, which I found out in Denmark that they're not even native. They bring, they found a stupid pheasant. Stupid easy to kill bird and then they restock it for all these people to hunt. It's so sad. Joel Saxum: I once referred to pheasant hunting in the United States as the bowling of hunting. Rosemary Barnes: Like you could run up and grab one with your hands. They're so dumb. Philip Totaro: No skill required. Allen Hall: Siemens Gamesa is making some moves. They plan to cut 4, 100 jobs, according to CEO Jochen Eichholz. In an internal letter to staff, so you can find this news article pretty much anywhere at the moment because it's really important the company aims to adapt to lower business volumes, particularly in the 4X and 5X machines, which they evidently are not selling and some reduced activity in non core markets India being one of those evidently also, and they're trying to streamline their portfolio, right? So despite the job cuts, I cold stated that the goal is to maintain a stable workforce by shifting jobs and hiring in other parts of the division. Now, Phil, I assume this is wrapped around India, that the, they're going to sell that factory in India. And then I still think they're going to have some layoffs in Denmark and in Spain, but they're not, I'm not being specific yet, but isn't this like the precursor to those layoffs in the union factories that they need to give them advance warning that this is coming and this letter is starting that process? So I, I assume Spain and Denmark are going to be impacted and India obviously is going to be sold....
