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.
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…

There is no life in space–can’t be, because there’s no air. But that undeniable fact loses point when your own existence is threatened by that life which can’t exist. The Space Beasts by Clifford D. Simak, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.
Clifford D. Simak is one of my favorite vintage sci-fi authors and we get a lot of requests for his stories. Today's story was written early in his career before any of his novels and comes from Astonishing Stories in April 1940, turn to page 6, The Space Beasts by Clifford D. Simak…

All your life you’ve crouched, waiting, in the path of impending disaster. That has been your job–what you were trained for. But you can’t help visualizing its arrival–prophesying what form it will take. So how could you be blamed for not recognizing it on arrival?

“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.
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 Dime Mystery Magazine in November 1944 on page 28, It Burns Me Up! By Ray Bradbury…

Special thanks to Becallsberg who left us a 5 star review on Apple Podcasts Netherlands! “Professional & High Quality Exceptionally well-produced narration of classic sci-fi short stories.

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.
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.

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.
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…

Somebody once came up with a song title we have never forgotten: “For every man there is a woman, so why did I gel stuck with you?” Not that Mr. Morcheck felt that way about Myra. He not only believed she was absolutely perfect; you could get a punch in the nose for doubting it! And he was so right—for a while! The Perfect Woman by Robert Sheckley, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.
Actually we have two stories for you today on the podcast. We’ll start with Robert Sheckley, from the pages of Amazing Stories in December 1953, let’s go to page 118, The Perfect Woman by Robert Sheckley…
Up next, a time travel story from the pages of Fantastic Universe magazine in December 1960, Time For Survival by George O. Smith…
Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, 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.

Joe Dunn and Julie are the sole survivors in a vast city of silence and death! The Last Man in New York by Paul MacNamara, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.
We’ve narrated several last man on earth stories but this one is different as you are about to find out. Written by Paul MacNamara, a man who has one published story and that’s it, and we know nothing else about him. Our story was published eighty years ago in the Fall 1944 issue of Thrilling Wonder Stories Magazine. Let’s turn to page 32, The Last Man in New York by Paul MacNamara…

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.
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…
