  • Tom's extraordinary machine glowed—and the years were banished from Old Crompton's body. But there still remained, deep-seated in his century-old mind, the memory of his crime. Old Crompton's Secret By Harl Vincent. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.


    Harl Vincent was born Harold Vincent Schoepflin in Buffalo, New York, in October 1893. He wrote more than 70 short stories, all but a few of them published from 1928 to 1942.


    If you had two dimes in February 1930 you could have purchased the 144 page issue of Astounding Stories of Super-Science, where you will find, Old Crompton's Secret By Harl Vincent…


    Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Exiled to an utterly remote future, Trevindor thought he suffered the ultimate punishment . . . until he met the second exile—and learned that the Universe holds things more fearful even than loneliness! Exile of the Eons by Arthur C. Clarke.

  • Mars' fever they called it. Could the wild boy cheat the Red Planet's skeleton deserts and the dogged trailers from Port Laribee? Return of a Legend by Raymond Z. Gallun. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.


    You might not know of Raymond Z. Gallun, and yes his last name rhymes with balloon. He was a significant figure in the development of modern science fiction.


    In recognition of his contributions to science fiction, Gallun received the I-CON Lifetime Achievement Award in 1985, which was later renamed the Raymond Z. Gallun Award.


    Born on March 22, 1911, in Beaver Dam, Wisconsin, he began his writing career early, publishing his first stories, “The Space Dwellers” and “The Crystal Ray,” in 1929 at the age of 18. He wrote more than 100 short science fiction stories and 5 novels. Most of those stories were published before 1950.


    From Planet Stories Magazine in March 1952 comes a tale of the challenges faced by pioneers on the Red Planet. Turn to page 55, Return of a Legend by Raymond Z. Gallun…

  • One man alone on a planet of death. — A deadly robot made especially to pursue a human being. Was it just a cruel sport devised for some bloodthirsty pleasure? Built to Kill, Programmed to Chase—The Ultimate Predator Has No Mercy. Man-Hunting Robot by James Rosenquest. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.


    Today’s featured author is James Rosenquest—and no, not James Rosenquist, the famous American pop artist. When you search for our James Rosenquest online, Google will try to convince you that you meant the other guy. But we’re here to shine a light on the lesser-known Rosenquest—the science fiction writer.


    So what do we know about him? Honestly, not a whole lot. He published just five sci-fi stories in 1959 and one more in 1960—and then disappeared from the literary scene. That’s the entirety of his known work. But as always, even brief sparks can leave a lasting impression. From page 44 in the August 1959 issue of Super Science Fiction, Man-Hunting Robot by James Rosenquest…


    Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Mars' fever they called it. Could the wild boy cheat the Red Planet's skeleton deserts and the dogged trailers from Port Laribee? Return of a Legend by Raymond Z. Gallun.

  • Of all the irksome, frustrating, maddening discoveries—was there no way of keeping it discovered? Forever by Robert Sheckley. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.


    Robert Sheckley has been a frequent contributor to our podcast and there are still many of his stories to narrate in the future. When this tale appeared in Galaxy Science Fiction magazine in February 1959, the man who was given credit for it was Ned Lang, because another Robert Sheckley story, Time Killer, was in that issue.

  • Alone in a world buried by endless snow and ice the last man on Earth drifts through a twilight of silence and memory. Time has lost all meaning... The Coming of the Ice by G. Peyton Wertenbaker. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.


    The year was 1926 and although there had been science fiction stories in magazines, there had never been an entire magazine devoted to science fiction. Hugo Gernsback was the man who would change the course of science fiction with the birth of Amazing Stories magazine which began publishing in April 1926. In case you were wondering the Hugo Award is named after this sci-fi pioneer. The first two magazines were filled with reprints, stories that had already been published, by Jules Verne, H. G. Wells and Edgar Allen Poe among others.


    G. Peyton Wertenbaker's short story The Man From the Atom appeared in that first issue but it too was a reprint, having been previously published 8 months earlier in Science and Invention magazine which was also published by Gernsback.


    Wertenbaker was born in New Castle, Delaware in 1907, he wrote a handful of sci-fi stories and then turned his attention to other pursuits, literary and otherwise. He served on the editorial board of Fortune magazine from 1933 to 1938, and became a contributing editor to Time Magazine in 1939. During World War Two he served as an air combat intelligence officer in the Pacific. In 1958 he joined NASA as a speechwriter, eventually becoming chief historian of the Aerospace Medical Division. The story you are about to hear was the first original paid story to appear in Amazing Stories in June 1926 on page 232, The Coming of the Ice by G. Peyton Wertenbaker…


    Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Of all the irksome, frustrating, maddening discoveries—was there no way of keeping it discovered? Forever by Robert Sheckley.

  • When you've been to Mars, when you've struggled with men and ships and supplies like some tremendous Herculean figure in the morning of the world, you'll never really feel at home on Earth... Lake of Fire by Frank Belknap Long. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.


    We don’t usually tease the next episode before sharing the story you’re about to hear—but today, we’re making an exception. Next time on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, we’ll introduce you to the teenager who wrote the very first original story—not a reprint—ever purchased by the world’s first truly complete science fiction magazine, nearly 100 years ago. You won’t want to miss it.


    Mars is the most Earth-like planet in our solar system. Close enough to dream about visiting, colonizing, or even finding life, yet alien enough to be mysterious. Mars gave writers a new place to dream big, play with ideas of civilization, survival, and human nature under alien skies. Such is the story you are about to hear. We will find our story on page 49 in the May 1950 issue of Planet Stories Magazine, Lake of Fire by Frank Belknap Long…


    Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, The Coming of the Ice by G. Peyton Wertenbaker.

  • Something is wrong with Dad… Charlie knows it, but no one believes him. Is it all in his head, or has something terrifying taken his father’s place? The Father Thing by Philip K. Dick. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.


    Philip K. Dick, what a mind. It has been said that Dick believed he was living in two timelines simultaneously, one as himself in 1970s California and another as a persecuted Christian in ancient Rome. These bizarre experiences fueled his paranoia but also deepened the philosophical depth of his later works. Today’s story is one of his earlier works, published in Fantasy and Science Fiction Magazine in December 1954 on page 105, The Father Thing by Philip K. Dick…

    Our first story today is shorter than most but I love it and I think you will too. It has been published many times, in Hauntings and Horrors, Ten Grisly Tales, 100 Great Fantasy Short Short Stories, 100 Creepy Little Creatures and Werewolf! It’s been titled Monsters in the Night but that’s not the original title. First published in The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction in October 1954 open your seven decade old copy to page 119, A Prophecy of Monsters by Clark Ashton Smith...


    We’ve got another short story for you today, and this one is a little different too! It was also first published in The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction in October, but three years earlier in 1951, the magazine says it was written by David Grinnel but it was actually written by an old friend of the podcast, turn to page 34, The Rag Thing by Donald A. Wollheim…

    Every time we release an episode featuring a story by Isaac Asimov, it quickly becomes one of our most-listened-to episodes. You may know this story as Green Patches but when it was first published on page 34 in Galaxy Science Fiction in November 1950 it had a different name, Misbegotten Missionary by Isaac Asimov...


    Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, A creature in the night hunting for fresh meat. Hunting in a way that never fails. A Prophecy of Monsters by Clark Ashton Smith.

  • Renwick, with too much time on his hands, was bored. He turned to Mead, in his discontent, only to discover some frightening aspects of his friend’s hobby of collecting children’s games and rhymes. Before the Fact by Zenna Henderson. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.


    Tony from the future recently bought us 20 coffees and had a request, “Since I know you like uncommon authors and also support female writers, please look into Zenna Henderson.” Thanks for the request Tony, without you we may never have known about Zenna Henderson.


    She was born in 1917 in Tucson, Arizona and began reading science fiction when she was 12. She graduated from Arizona State College, now Arizona State University, in 1940 and taught school, primarily in Tucson, mainly first grade. Zenna is one of 203 women recognized in the book “Partners in wonder : women and the birth of science fiction” who wrote stories that were published in US Science Fiction Magazines from 1926 to 1965.


    Her debut science fiction short story appeared in 1951, marking the beginning of a prolific career that saw over 60 of her works featured in pulp sci-fi magazines. The 1972 ABC TV movie of the week The People starring William Shatner and Kim Darby is based on the Zenna Henderson story Pottage. You can watch The People on YouTube.


    Turn to page 60 in Universe Science Fiction Magazine in January 1955, Before the Fact by Zenna Henderson

  • Finding a cause worth dying for is no great trick—the Universe is full of them. Finding one worth living for is the genuine problem! Orphans of the Void by Michael Shaara. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.


    How many vintage science fiction authors won a Pulitzer Prize? Ray Bradbury never won a Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, but received a Pulitzer Special Citation in 2007 for his impact on literature.


    The answer is three. Booth Tarkington, MacKinlay Kantor and Michael Shaara. Booth Tarkington is one of only four novelists to win the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction more than once, along with William Faulkner, John Updike, and Colson Whitehead. Tarkington wrote only three short sci-fi stories.


    MacKinlay Kantor wrote eight short sci-fi stories and one science fiction novel If the South Had Won the Civil War released in 1961.


    Michael Shaara is the most well known of the three. Shaara was born in Jersey City, New Jersey in 1928. Before he began selling sci-fi for 2 cents a word in the 1950s he was a boxer and a police officer. He won his Pulitzer for his novel about the Battle of Gettysburg, The Killer Angels which won the award in 1975, and was showcased on the big screen in the 1993 movie Gettysburg starring Tom Berenger and Martin Sheen.


    Shaara also wrote the 1991 novel For Love of the Game which was made into the 1999 film with the same name starring Kevin Costner and Kelly Preston.


    But it all began back in 1952. He wrote two dozen short sci-fi stories and this was his first. From Galaxy Science Fiction in June 1952, we will discover this tale of artificial intelligence, and the fate of a forgotten world on page 78, Orphans of the Void by Michael Shaara...


    Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Renwick, with too much time on his hands, was bored. He turned to Mead, in his discontent, only to discover some frightening aspects of his friend’s hobby of collecting children’s games and rhymes. Before the Fact by Zenna Henderson.

  • A tale of dark science, and the ghastly mystery that enveloped the Spanish doctor’s attempts at artificial refrigeration. Cool Air by H. P. Lovecraft. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.


    The story of H. P. Lovecraft is a sad story. He lived a life marked by poverty, and personal loss. His early years were overshadowed by his father’s descent into madness, which led to his institutionalization and death. His mother, similarly afflicted with mental illness, was overprotective and instilled in him a sense of fragility and isolation.


    As a child, Lovecraft was a prodigy, reading and writing at an early age, but frequent illnesses and nervous conditions kept him from completing high school. He lived with his controlling mother and struggled throughout his life with self-doubt.


    His writing, though prolific, was largely unrecognized during his lifetime, and he was forced to become a ghostwriter just to scrape by.


    Lovecraft was diagnosed with cancer and was virtually unknown at the time of his death at the age of 46, and though he never achieved fame or financial success in life, his influence on horror and science fiction remains unparalleled.


    Today’s story was published two years after Lovecraft died and appears in the September 1939 issue of Weird Tales Magazine on page 95, Cool Air by H. P. Lovecraft…


    Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, An Earthman and Earthwoman are hurled through worlds within worlds by a diabolical weapon! Beyond Annihilation by Henry Kuttner.

  • The last living man on a world rendered utterly lifeless by all–consuming fire– how could he start life alone? Adam and No Eve by Alfred Bester. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.


    I love a great apocalyptic sci-fi tale, and today we have an exceptional one for you by a legendary author. Alfred Bester, a true icon of the genre, is honored in the Science Fiction Hall of Fame, the Prometheus Hall of Fame, and the Fandom Hall of Fame. He was also awarded the prestigious SFWA Grand Master Award by the Science Fiction & Fantasy Writers Association.


    Published almost 84 years ago in September 1941 in Astounding Science Fiction on page 35, Adam and No Eve by Alfred Bester…


    Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, A tale of dark science, and the ghastly mystery that enveloped the Spanish doctor’s attempts at artificial refrigeration. Cool Air by H. P. Lovecraft.

  • Just because an event "has to" happen, some people think that, of course, it will happen. It ain't necessarily so! Ballard had but a few hours to solve the problem, and he knew that the answer was there, before his eyes—if he could see it in time! Momentum by Charles Dye. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.


    We are so thankful for your 5 star reviews and they are coming in faster than ever. RCraig had this to say on Apple Podcasts US, “ Sci-Fi at its best! This is the best of the best sci-fi podcasts. I love the stories and the narration and I highly recommend this podcast to anyone who like science fiction!” Thanks RCraig for the 5 stars and that awesome review.


    We would love it if you would leave us a 5 star review on Apple Podcasts, if you think we deserve it. And even though Spotify doesn’t allow reviews you can give us 5 stars on Spotify, where we currently enjoy a 4.9 rating.


    Thanks for everything you do to support our podcast.


    Another podcast and another author makes his debut. Charles Dye was born in San Fernando, California, in 1925. His first published story, The Last Orbit, appeared in the February 1950 issue of Amazing Stories. He is credited with having written seventeen short stories and one novel.


    One of the stories Charles Dye is known for wasn’t actually written by him. If you open Planet Stories magazine from July 1952, you’ll find The Man Who Staked the Stars credited to Dye. However, the story was actually written by Katherine MacLean, who was briefly married to him. The reason MacLean gave Dye credit remains unknown.


    By the way, The Man Who Staked the Stars is a novella—a work of fiction longer than a short story but shorter than a full-length novel, typically ranging from 17,500 to 40,000 words, according to the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers Association.


    Let’s peel back the pages of Future combined with Science Fiction Stories in July 1951 to page 59, Momentum by Charles Dye…


    Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, I don’t normally do this but the story you will hear next on the podcast is one of my favorites, The last living man on a world rendered utterly lifeless by all–consuming fire– how could he start life alone? Adam and No Eve by Alfred Bester.

  • It was a wonderful plan, a boon to humanity. And solving the parking problem would make a fortune for Slim and me. But when the secret got out… Parking Unlimited By Noel Loomis. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.


    Noel Loomis was born in Wakita, Oklahoma Territory in 1905, two years before it became a state. And if Wakita Oklahoma rings a bell it might be because it was one of the filming locations for the motion picture blockbuster Twister. This tiny town near the Oklahoma border with Kansas had less than 400 people when Loomis was born and only around 300 today.


    Although he wrote science fiction Loomis is best known for his Westerns. He won the Spur award for Best Western Novel in 1958 for Short Cut to Red River. He won the award again the next year for a short story, Grandfather Out of the Past.


    Noel Loomis penned two science fiction novels and about 30 science fiction short stories. From Future combined with Science Fiction Stories dated May-June 1950, we will discover our story on page 70, Parking Unlimited By Noel Loomis…


    Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Just because an event "has to" happen, some people think that, of course, it will happen. It ain't necessarily so! Ballard had but a few hours to solve the problem, and he knew that the answer was there, before his eyes—if he could see it in time! Momentum by Charles Dye.

  • To those who wear the goggles of Dr. Dragonet there is another world–of mystery, joy and, yes, terror… The Goggles of Dr. Dragonet by Fritz Leiber. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.


    Fritz Leiber won more than his share of awards for his amazing work. He won six Hugo awards, three Nebula’s, a Bram Stoker, World Fantasy Award, he was posthumously inducted into the Science Fiction Hall of Fame and he won many awards that you’ve probably never heard of, Balrog, Geffen, Gandalf, Locus and others.


    We’ve already narrated numerous Fritz Leiber stories but thankfully there remain many others that are in the public domain for us to bring to you in the future.


    From Fantastic Stories of Imagination in July 1961 let us turn to page 96, The Goggles of Dr. Dragonet by Fritz Leiber…
