Future of eating, drinking and getting high

In episode eight of the FutureFest podcast we return to our Future Thrills theme and consider what we’re likely to be consuming in the future. Food futurologist Dr Morgaine Gaye introduces the next generation of vending machines, including the cupcake ATM; award-winning mixologist Ryan Chetiyawardana explores some interesting possible new methods of nutrient delivery through alcohol; and journalist and author Johann Hari looks at where the war on drugs is headed after a century of narcotics prohibition.
