Welcoming Committee and The Robots Strike by Harry Harrison
26 december 2024 · 38 min
They’d long known that they were more than mere machines. They could reason, remember, and teach. And also plan, The Robots Strike and Welcoming Committee by Harry Harrison. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. Lees meer
Author Harry Harrison is best known for his character The Stainless Steel Rat which we featured on the podcast more than a year ago. But he also wrote a plethora of lesser known short stories beginning in the 1950s and you will hear two of them today.
Our first story appeared in Fantastic Universe magazine in January 1959. We will discover this robot rebellion on page 58, The Robots Strike by Harry Harrison…
Our second story was published earlier in Harrison’s career. If you didn’t know better you would swear that Harrison didn’t write it because in the October 1957 issue of Fantastic Universe magazine our story is credited to Felix Boyd. Harrison used the pen name Felix Boyd three times and we’ve already narrated one of the others, The Robot Who Wanted to Know. The Magazine, Fantastic Universe, the date October 1957, the page where it begins 92, the story, Welcoming Committee by Harry Harrison…
Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, All his life he had been searching for the big strike. But always he had failed. Now he had come to Mars—his last chance. This had to be—Gunnison's Bonanza by Dick Purcell.

The Man Who Did Things Twice and The Spider and the Fly by Don Mark Lemon
22 december 2024 · 29 min
Today on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast we go back 119 years and introduce you to a story by an author we have never featured on the podcast before. The Man Who Did Things Twice and a second story by Don Mark Lemon, The Spider and the Fly. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. Lees meer
Don Mark Lemon was born in Arizona in September 1877, he wrote 15 short stories and 1 novel, The Scarlet Planet, which was published in 1930.
His first published short story, Doctor Goldman, can be found in the December 1900 issue of The Black Cat which launched in 1895. The Black Cat sold for five cents and encouraged amateur writers to submit stories. As the story goes the Jack London novel The Call of the Wild might never have been written if not for The Black Cat. London wasn’t having success as a writer and was about to give up but then he sold a story, A Thousand Deaths, to The Black Cat in 1899 and The Call of the Wild was published four years later! Never give up, Never Surrender!!
The first Don Mark Lemon story on the podcast won a $100 prize, which would be worth about $3,500 today, and appeared in the June 1905 issue of The Black Cat on page 39, The Man Who Did Things Twice by Don Mark Lemon…
Our second story by Don Mark Lemon was published in The Thrill Book, a short lived publication which began and ceased publication in 1919. From the August 1st issue of The Thrill Book let’s turn to page 109 for The Spider and the Fly by Don Mark Lemon…
Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Harry Harrison is back with two stories from the late 1950s, Welcoming Committee and The Robots Strike.

21 december 2024 · 24 min

Spawn of Inferno Hugh B. Cave
12 december 2024 · 59 min
An unusual story, about the darkness that settled like a black cloud, and the horror that came with it. Spawn of Inferno by Hugh B. Cave, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. Lees meer
Today marks the debut of an author I had never heard of, and yet he was one of the most prolific authors during the pulp fiction era. Some say he wrote more than 1,200 stories, others say it was only 1,000. Our author says he wrote more than 800 stories in the 1930s.
Hugh B. Cave was born in Chester, England, in 1910 and relocated during his childhood with his family to Boston, Massachusetts, shortly after the beginning of World War I. After World War II he moved to Jamaica where he rebuilt and managed a successful coffee plantation. He returned to the United States in the early 1970s after the Jamaican government confiscated his plantation.
Cave is celebrated for his mastery in horror, fantasy, and science fiction, although his work also included westerns, romance, crime and non-fiction. With an impressive body of work that spans over seven decades, Cave penned hundreds of short stories, more than 20 novels, and screenplays that captivated audiences with their gripping narratives as you are about to discover. Three of his stories were adapted for television in the 1950s.
Let’s go back in time to October 1932 and open Weird Tales magazine to page 522, Spawn of Inferno by Hugh B. Cave…

In the Walls of Eryx by H. P. Lovecraft and Kenneth Sterling - The only interplanetary sci-fi story by H. P. Lovecraft
10 december 2024 · 1 uur 25 min
Two Earthmen are trapped in an invisible maze on the planet Venus. In the Walls of Eryx by H. P. Lovecraft and Kenneth Sterling, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. Lees meer
As some of you know our YouTube channel was unjustly taken down due to false copyright claims. An injustice we are working to correct by searching for a lawyer to sue the individuals responsible. Many of you communicated with us regularly on YouTube and we miss that daily interaction. We hope that you will choose to participate on our Facebook page, there is a link in the description. Or you can do a search on Facebook for The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.
https://www.facebook.com/TheLostSciFiPodcast
Today’s story is the only interplanetary science fiction story written by H. P. Lovecraft and he did not write this story by himself. Kenneth J. Sterling was only 14 when he met Lovecraft and he shared his draft of a story with him when he was a 16 year old medical student in Providence Rhode Island.
The story was rewritten and published two and a half years after Lovecraft’s death in the October 1939 issue of Weird Tales magazine. Let’s turn to page 50 of this 85 year old publication that would have set you back all of 15 cents, In the Walls of Eryx by H. P. Lovecraft and Kenneth Sterling…

We are back from vacation, I am physically back but my voice isn’t. Hopefully the voice will be back to normal in a few days and the first story you will hear is In the Walls of Eryx by H. P. Lovecraft.

Finis by Frank Lillie Pollock

A story of the last dawn that human eyes would ever see… Finis by Frank Lillie Pollock, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. Lees meer
Thanks to Andre’a for buying us a coffee. She says, “Thank you once again. This story is one of my favourites. Respectfully, Andre'a from Melbourne Australia.” Thank you Andre’a. If you’d like to buy us a coffee there is a link in the description.
Ever heard of Frank Lillie Pollock? I hadn’t until I came across this story. The first pronunciation of the title to our story in Merriam Webster pronounces it Finis, another pronunciation is Finis. However you choose to pronounce it, it is an interesting story.
Frank Lillie Pollock was born in Canada or in Tennessee, there are conflicting reports, in 1876. He may have written more than 40 short stories but we’re not sure about that either. The story you are about to hear is his most famous which was also known as The Last Dawn.
Originally published in Argosy magazine in June 1906, Finis by Frank Lillie Pollock…

It Burns Me Up! by Ray Bradbury
16 oktober 2024 · 26 min
“Don’t knock a man when he’s down,” they say.… But my cold-blooded visitors paid no heed, as they laughed and wondered how I could talk to Saint Peter—with my throat cut from ear to ear! It Burns Me Up! by Ray Bradbury, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. Lees meer
Who doesn’t love a vintage Ray Bradbury story? When I first came across this story, I was reluctant to do it because it isn’t science fiction. So I asked our listeners on YouTube what they thought, and the answer was unanimous.
“No question—yes!”
“Because it’s Ray Bradbury, it gets a pass.”
“Sounds interesting! I’m in!”
And, “I’d certainly listen to it.”
So here it is!
From the November 1944 issue of Dime Mystery Magazine, on page 28, It Burns Me Up! by Ray Bradbury…
Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast: The Venusian horgels were just too lovable! Quarantined Species by J. F. Bone.

They weren't human. They were something more—and something less—they were, in short, humanity's hopes for survival! Spawning Ground by Lester Del Rey, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. Lees meer
Special thanks to Ron McFarlan who bought us a coffee. “Still loving the show! I’d say it gets better but the early ones are pretty seamless quality wise. The story I thought you’d like is Robert Sheckley’s “Store of the Worlds”, as timely as ever. It’s from Playboy 1959 so may not qualify but I can hear you reading it.” Thanks Ron! I will ask our copyright expert Jesse if “Store of the Worlds” is in the public domain. As you know I love Robert Sheckley.

Never on Mars by John Wyndham

Jeremy got to Mars, all right, but nobody else came back. And so people would not believe he had actually been there at all. Never on Mars by John Wyndham, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. Lees meer
John Wyndham appears for the first time on our podcast. Wyndham was born in 1903, the English science fiction writer is best known for his novels The Day of the Triffids, released on the big screen in 1963 and The Midwich Cuckoos, later filmed as Village of the Damned in 1960.
He wrote about a dozen novels and more than 70 short stories.
A British daily newspaper, The Financial Times, called Wyndham, "one of Great Britain's most serious and literate pioneers of intelligent science-fiction", and that "he always wrote well and imaginatively”.
It took a great deal of imagination to write today’s story which was published in Fantastic Universe in January 1954 on page 62, Never on Mars by John Wyndham…

10 september 2024 · 1 uur
Mercury had no atmosphere—everyone knew that. Why was it developing one now? Hot Planet by Hal Clement, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. Lees meer
Harry Clement Stubbs, better known by his pen name Hal Clement, was born in Somerville, Massachusetts, in May 1922. He graduated from Harvard University with a degree in astronomy in 1943. While still a college student, he published his first story, Proof, in the June 1942 issue of Astounding Science Fiction.
Though Clement wrote relatively few short stories—around 30 in total—and only 8 novels, his work was highly regarded. His skill as a writer earned him the prestigious title of the 17th Grand Master from the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America in 1999.
Appearing in the pages of Galaxy Science Fiction Magazine in August 1963, on page 6 you will find, Hot Planet by Hal Clement…

The Venus Evil by Chester S. Geier
2 september 2024 · 34 min
In the sweet Venusian spring, when iridescent butterflies swarmed and deer-things scampered, it was both necessary and good for Richard Farris to kill George Pearce. The Venus Evil by Chester S. Geier, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. Lees meer
Another day, another author making his debut on our podcast. Chester S. Geier. He was born in 1921 in Stevens Point, Wisconsin. He wrote about 80 short stories, more than half of them in the 1940s. His first paid published story was, A Length of Rope, in 1941 and his last short story, The Astral Exile, was published in 1953. We know very little about him but we know that he was deaf from the age of twelve.
And I know that I love this story. It was published in the summer of 1947 about the time of the Roswell incident in Roswell, New Mexico. To this day some believe that an extraterrestrial spacecraft crash landed near Roswell and that aliens were aboard the spaceship. From Planet Stories Magazine in the Summer of 1947 turn to page 68, The Venus Evil by Chester S. Geier…

The Ultimate Vice by A. Bertram Chandler

Hallam wanted to get out of space – but even more he wanted to make a fortune first. Now he had found a way to do it – by selling – The Ultimate Vice by A. Bertram Chandler, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. Lees meer
Arthur Bertram Chandler was born in England in 1912, forty four years later he moved to Australia and became an Australian citizen. He wrote more than 150 short stories starting with This Means War! in 1944. He also wrote more than 40 novels. He is perhaps most well-known for his John Grimes novels and for the Rim World Series.
He was a merchant marine officer, sailing the world in everything from steamers to troopships for three decades. This experience is often woven into his writing. His descriptions of life aboard spaceships and the relationships between members of the crew come from his experience aboard seagoing ships.
His debut on our podcast also marks the debut of Space Travel magazine in July 1958. Space Travel magazine was published for only three issues, although the magazine got its start as Imaginative Tales in 1954 before the short lived rebranding. We will find our story on page 100, The Ultimate Vice by A. Bertram Chandler…

Edward Morgan Forster, born in 1879, was a renowned English author celebrated for his novels A Room with a View, Howards End, and A Passage to India. His works have been adapted into well-known films, A Room with a View, which featured Maggie Smith and Helena Bonham Carter, and Howards End, starring Anthony Hopkins and Emma Thompson.

M. Forster…

The Inquisitor by Robert Silverberg
23 augustus 2024 · 18 min
It wasn't that Kroll enjoyed watching the traitors broken in body and spirit. But why did they keep insisting they were innocent before—The Inquisitor. By Robert Silverberg, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. Lees meer
Science Fiction Grand Master Robert Silverberg has been on the podcast many times with The Mystery of Deneb IV, Never Trust a Thief, Planet of the Angry Giants, Monsters that Once Were Men and several others. He returns today with a short story from December 1956 that appeared in Imagination Stories of Science and Fantasy. We often hear from listeners who say they don’t understand why authors use pen names. This issue is a great example. Robert Silverberg actually wrote three stories that appeared in this issue. No magazine editor wanted one author to appear multiple times in a single magazine, readers might not like it. So the solution was simple, use a different name, or in this case names.
The Alien Dies at Dawn, which you will hear on the podcast in the not too distant future, was credited to Alexander Blade but was written by Silverberg, as was Lair of the Dragonbird. On page 106 of the December 1956 of Imagination Stories of Science and Fantasy we will find today’s story, The Inquisitor By Robert Silverberg…

Bud Gregory is back. This is the third story in the Bud Gregory Saga written by Murray Leinster.

You can give us a 5 star rating and an awesome review on Apple Podcasts in your country, if you think we deserve it. K9Rush did just that, “Best old time SciFi. This is a great show. Love the reader and all of his information and choices in the stories. I just found this a couple months ago and I love it.” Thanks K9Rush for your 5 Star rating and awesome review.
William Morrison has appeared on the podcast several times, but it’s been more than a year since The Addicts, Monster, Task of Kayin, Unwelcomed Visitor and Spoken For.
Let’s journey back to May 1952. A well remembered episode of "I Love Lucy" premiered in May of 52, “Lucy Does a TV Commercial” also known as "Vitameatavegamin" received an unheard of 68% of US television viewers. The movie Singin' in the Rain was in movie theaters, it was only a modest hit but now it’s revered as one of the greatest films of all time. If you had a quarter you could pick up a copy of Science Fiction Quarterly, which offered a novel, two Novelets and two short stories.

No Shield From the Dead by Gordon R. Dickson - The Golden Age of Science Fiction
18 augustus 2024 · 20 min
No conceivable force could penetrate Terri's shield. Yet he was defenseless. No Shield from the Dead by Gordon R. Dickson, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. Lees meer
We’re excited to welcome Gordon R. Dickson to our podcast for the first time today. Dickson was born in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada in 1923. After his father died, he and his mother moved to Minneapolis, Minnesota in 1937. He served in the United States Army from 1943 to 1946.
Gordon R. Dickson wrote more than 140 short stories and over 50 novels during his career. He was highly prolific, with his works spanning various subgenres of science fiction and fantasy, including his well-known “Childe Cycle” series. Over his career, he won multiple Hugo and Nebula Awards. Unfortunately for us most of his work is not in the public domain.
Let’s go back in time seventy one and a half years to the January 1953 issue of If Worlds of Science Fiction Magazine, which also showcased Time Enough at Last by Lynn Venable, and turn to page 111, No Shield from the Dead by Gordon R. Dickson…

Defense Mech by Ray Bradbury
16 augustus 2024 · 36 min
Halloway stared down at Earth, and his brain tore loose and screamed, Man, man, how'd you get in a mess like this, in a rocket a million miles past the moon, shooting for Mars and danger and terror and maybe death. Defense Mech by Ray Bradbury, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. Lees meer
We continue to receive many requests every week for more Ray Bradbury stories. We don’t want to disappoint you so Bradbury is back. Beginning on page 42 in Planet Stories magazine in the Spring of 1946, Defense Mech by Ray Bradbury…
Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, The thoughts of youth are long, long thoughts… but those of a frustrated machine are longer–and deadlier! Someday by Isaac Asimov.

Blank? by Randall Garrett
15 augustus 2024 · 20 min
Amnesia? Well, maybe—but how and where had he earned that $50,000? Blank? By Randall Garrett, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. Lees meer
Thanks to Irma Stolfo on Apple Podcasts Australia who left us a 5 Star review! “Simply the best. Scott your work is outstanding. I love sci-fi now and am especially hooked on these vintage short stories. Quick and easy and so full of character and action. Your narration is pure perfection. Thank you.” Thank you Irma. If you haven’t already left us a 5 star review on Apple Podcasts in your country, I hope you will, if you think we deserve it.
And a special thanks to Patrick McLendon who bought us 3 coffees. Patrick says, “I love hearing these great unheralded stories, and the readings are virtuosic. Thanks, and enjoy a cup o’ Joe.” Thanks Patrick!! What a huge compliment and thanks for the coffee Patrick. If you would like to show your support for our podcast there is a link in the description.

Today marks the debut of another vintage sci-fi author, Randall Garrett. Garrett was among the most prolific science fiction authors during the 1950s and 1960s with most of his more than 180 short stories during that time. He wrote under a long list of pen names which includes David Gordon, Blake MacKenzie, Seaton McKettrig, Clyde Mitchell, Mark Phillips, Robert Randall, Leonard G. Spencer, S. M. Tenneshaw and Gerald Vance. He was good friends with Robert Silverberg and the two of them wrote many short sci-fi stories together. In fact, this may not actually be Randall Garrett’s debut. He may have written Six Frightened Men with Robert Silverberg but we’re not 100% sure.
We are sure of one thing, we will be featuring more of his work in the future. The June 1957 issue of Infinity Science Fiction Magazine was an unusual issue. In its pages were three stories with the same name, kind of. Isaac Asimov wrote a story named Blank! with an exclamation mark which appeared on page 88. Harlan Ellison’s sto…

The Akkra Case by Miriam Allen DeFord
13 augustus 2024 · 32 min
In a future society where murder is almost unheard of, the mysterious death of a young girl in Central Park shocks the public and puzzles investigators. The Akkra Case by Miriam Allen de Ford, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. Lees meer
Miriam Allen DeFord has never been on our podcast until today. Born in 1888, in Philadelphia, she is best known for her contributions to science fiction, mystery, and true crime.
DeFord’s career spanned many decades, during which she produced almost 100 short stories. Her work was featured on Alfred Hitchcock Presents in 1958, an episode based on her short story Death Sentence a decade earlier. More than a decade later she was credited on Rod Serling’s Night Gallery for a story she had written, A Death in the Family and she also contributed stories to the TV shows Orson Welles Great Mysteries, The Wide World of Mystery and The Alfred Hitchcock Hour.
Though she wrote in several genres, DeFord is perhaps best remembered for her contributions to science fiction. She was a part of the science fiction community during its early years, contributing to magazines like Amazing Stories and The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction.
Today’s story was published in 1962 when she was 73 years old. Open the pages of Amazing Stories in January of that year to page 114, The Akkra Case by Miriam Allen DeFord…

Gun For Hire by Mack Reynolds
12 augustus 2024 · 39 min
A gun is an interesting weapon; it can be hired, of course, and naturally doesn't care who hires it. Something much the same can be said of the gunman, too… Gun For Hire by Mack Reynolds, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. Lees meer

The Man Who Found Out by Roger D. Aycock - Sci-Fi Short Stories From the 1950s
11 augustus 2024 · 23 min
It's one thing to blow a bubble of glib, journalistic lies. Quite another to have that bubble burst in a nightmarish, green beyond. The Man Who Found Out by Roger D. Aycock, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. Lees meer
Thanks to Earp Unpaso who gave us our first 5 Star review on Apple Podcasts Finland.“Absolutely Great. I found this podcast about a year ago and have been a fan ever since then. What makes this so good, is the narrator. He really puts his mind and heart in every episode. He doesn’t just read the stories, he’s really telling them. His pleasant voice brings the story to life. Makes it a pure joy to listen to. Thank you and keep up good work.” Thanks Earp and thanks to you and all our other listeners in Finland, where we have our highest ranking ever at #4!
Let’s open the pages of Fantastic Universe in September 1954 to page 70, The Man Who Found Out by Roger D. Aycock…
