Step aboard our cosmic vessel and embark on a thrilling journey through the annals of science fiction history. Delve into the realms of imagination with us as we traverse the vast expanses of the solar system, encountering aliens, robots, and spacefaring brigands amidst the twinkling stars.

Join us several times a week as we unearth timeless tales penned by the luminaries of vintage sci-fi literature. From the visionary minds of Philip K. Dick to the poetic prose of Ray Bradbury, from the boundless imagination of Isaac Asimov to the pioneering works of H. G. Wells, Arthur C. Clarke, Harlan Ellison, and countless others, we bring you short stories that have shaped the genre for generations.

Prepare to journey back in time a hundred years, or more, to an era when these awe-inspiring narratives first graced the pages of pulp magazines and sci-fi anthologies. Yet, paradoxically, our destination often lies in the distant future, where the echoes of these literary marvels continue to resonate.

Guiding us through this celestial voyage is our narrator, Scott Miller, who serves as your companion and guide as we traverse the cosmos, exploring the wonders of yesteryear and the possibilities of tomorrow. Join us as we navigate the depths of space and time, embarking on an adventure that transcends the boundaries of imagination.

We have narrated only one Francis Stevens story before today. The Elf Trap was on the podcast about 8 months ago. 

Francis Stevens—born Gertrude Barrows Bennett, is one of the most influential and overlooked early masters of speculative storytelling. Publishing under a pen name, she shaped the foundations of dark fantasy and early science-fiction thrillers long before the genre had a name.

Today’s story is one of scientific ambition, unexpected power, and the thin line between discovery and danger. Let’s travel back in time 121 years to March 1904 and open The Argosy Magazine to page 663, The Curious Experience of Thomas Dunbar by Francis Stevens…

Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, In a future where humanity has grown soft, only their self-evolving machine descendants stand between Earth and an unstoppable alien force. As the last humans watch the end of their own era, a new kind of intelligence rises to decide the fate of everything that lives—or once lived. The Last Evolution by John W. Campbell.

The Curious Experience of Thomas Dunbar by Francis Stevens

Caught in the fog-choked wilds of Venus, Castle stumbles into a mystery far stranger than the hostile “natives” stalking him through the gloom. His only chance at survival lies in unraveling who — or what — really claims this harsh alien world. First Landing by Roger D. Aycock. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

Things just keep getting better! Thanks to all of you amazing Lost Sci-Fi lovers, we’ve climbed to #2 in Science Fiction podcasts in Norway and #3 in Canada. We’re honored—and it’s all because of you.

Roger Dee, real name Roger D. Aycock, published extensively throughout the 1950s and 60s, crafting stories that mixed frontier exploration with subtle psychological tension. Today’s story is a perfect example of how he revealed the wonder — and the danger — of stepping onto an alien world for the very first time. From Fantastic Universe magazine in June 1957 on page 62, First Landing by Roger D. Aycock…

Conquest Over Time by Michael Shaara

A routine survey of an unremarkable planet spirals into dread as two explorers discover a network of perfectly round holes that seem to defy nature, physics, and common sense. What begins as scientific curiosity soon becomes a race to understand what’s growing beneath the sand—and why the holes are widening. The Holes by Michael Shaara. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

This has been an absolutely incredible week. Just days ago we became the #1 science fiction podcast in Finland—then Denmark—and at the same time we returned to #1 in Kenya. The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast has now reached the #1 spot in 32 countries, something we never even imagined when we started this journey.

We’ve also crossed roughly 1,000 ratings and reviews across all platforms, with an amazing 4.9 out of 5 average. You made that happen. Your ratings, your reviews, and every time you share the show have pushed us to the top in Finland, Denmark, Kenya, and 29 other countries.

Wherever you live and however you listen, thank you for helping us achieve something extraordinary. Our promise is simple—we’ll honor your support by continuing to bring you the very best in vintage science fiction. The mission is the same as it was when we began, I will narrate vintage sci-fi and share these amazing stories with you for the rest of my life.

Every once in a while, I start narrating a story and enjoy it so much that I have to stop, step out of the booth, and search for more by the same author. It happened again today while recording today’s tale. So there’s another story by Michael Shaara in our next episode.

What begins as a routine planetary survey turns strange when two explorers encounter perfectly round shafts that plunge into impossible depths. Their instruments fail, their assumptions crumble, and the truth they uncover is something neither of them could prepare for.

Crack open the June 1954 edition of Fantastic and turn to page 116, The Holes by Michael Shaara…

The Holes by Michael Shaara

A desperate treasure hunt on the frozen surface of Mars turns explosive when three men uncover the legendary weapons of a vanished civilization. But the greatest danger is not what the Martians left behind — it’s the ambition boiling inside the humans who find it. The Last Weapon by Robert Sheckley. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

You’ve done it again! Thanks to your incredible support, we’re officially the #1 Science Fiction Podcast in Finland. That makes 32 countries where we have hit #1 thanks to you!

This milestone is far more than a ranking. It reflects a passionate community that continues to embrace classic sci-fi, rediscover forgotten treasures, and celebrate the authors who shaped the genre. Every listen, share, and review helps our podcast reach new audiences, keep these timeless stories alive, and shine a light on the legends of yesterday for listeners today. Thank you.

There was a time when I had never even heard the name Robert Sheckley — until our friend Jesse urged us to explore his work. Since then, Sheckley has become one of my absolute favorite authors.

Our previous story, The Nine Billion Names of God by Arthur C. Clarke, first appeared in Star Science Fiction Stories in February 1953. While researching that story, we discovered this one as well — published in the very same volume — and we knew we had to share it with you.

The Last Weapon by Robert Sheckley

A team of engineers travels to a remote Tibetan monastery to install a computer meant to complete a centuries-long sacred task. But as the machine nears the end of its work, the engineers realize the monks believe its final output will trigger something far greater than they ever imagined. The Nine Billion Names Of God by Arthur C. Clarke. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

Today’s story is one of Arthur C. Clarke’s most famous and most debated works—The Nine Billion Names of God. First published in 1953, it blends technology, philosophy, and belief in a way that only Clarke could.

In this tale, two engineers trek into the remote Himalayas to help a monastery complete a centuries-old sacred project. What begins as a straightforward installation job slowly reveals an idea so vast and unexpected that it has echoed through science fiction ever since.

Clarke is at his most graceful and unforgettable here. The story later earned the Retro Hugo Award for Best Short Story in 2004. It first appeared in Ballantine Books’ Star Science Fiction Stories anthology in February 1953, released in both paperback and hardcover. We are looking for the last story on page 195, The Nine Billion Names Of God by Arthur C. Clarke…

The Nine Billion Names Of God by Arthur C. Clarke

In a rundown San Francisco apartment building, Ellen begins to suspect something monstrous is hiding behind her neighbors’ polite smiles. When the cats go missing and the noises in the walls grow louder, she realizes she might be the only human left who knows the truth. Know Thy Neighbor by Elisabeth R. Lewis. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

Your support means a lot to us. Amy Özkan just bought us 3 coffees and added this message: “I appreciate this podcast and that you have narrated so many stories that we can choose from. I enjoy old-time radio science fiction series like "X Minus One" and others that were created for adults. I found your podcast when I finished listening to just about every old time sci-fi drama I could find. This has become a regular night time routine for me as I enjoy listening just before falling asleep. Thank you Scott.”

Thank you Amy! We appreciate you.

Today’s story, Know Thy Neighbor by Elisabeth R. Lewis, takes us into a San Francisco apartment building where something strange is happening behind closed doors. A dead cat, a frightened tenant, and whispers of a green-skinned intruder turn a normal morning into mounting dread.

Lewis was one of many talented women who wrote for the pulp magazines but never received the recognition they deserved. It’s the only story of hers we’ve been able to uncover, and once you listen, we think you’ll feel the same way we do: if only we had a time machine to urge her to keep writing.

Published in February 1953 in Galaxy Science Fiction magazine on page 100, Know Thy Neighbor by Elisabeth R. Lewis…

Know Thy Neighbor by Elisabeth R. Lewis

A screaming meteor tears out of the sky and leaves more than a crater in its wake—inside it lies a mystery that bends the laws of physics. When Charlie King steps into the blue haze surrounding the fallen stone, he discovers that rescuing the Meteor Girl may require a leap across space-time itself. The Meteor Girl by Jack Williamson. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

I love hearing from listeners around the world—it’s your feedback that keeps Lost Sci-Fi flying through the galaxy week after week. Here’s a message that made my day from RickBase456 on Spotify

“Love The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast! Scott’s narrations and characterizations sound like the voices I imagine when reading. I found the podcast on Spotify when I searched for ‘Sci-Fi,’ checked out the first story, and never looked back. Many thanks for an entertaining podcast that reminds me of the days when I subscribed to the Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction.”

Thanks Rick! We’re happy to take you on a trip down science-fiction memory lane. We’ve got a fascinating trip through forgotten futures, strange worlds, and stories that once filled the golden pages of pulp magazines — all brought back to life, one episode at a time.

What would you do if a glowing meteor landed on Earth—not with destruction, but with a doorway to something impossible? Jack Williamson wasn’t just asking that question… he was asking it in 1931, when ideas like relativity, other dimensions, and cosmic portals were still wild, frightening theories rather than sci-fi staples. A love story, a scientific gamble, a leap into the unknown—time to find out how far one man will go to save the woman he loves… even if it means stepping outside the universe itself. From Astounding Stories in March 1931 our story begins on page 404, The Meteor Girl by Jack Williamson…

The Meteor Girl by Jack Williamson

A routine bank delivery turns into a night of sinister secrets when a young clerk visits a wealthy recluse in the lonely hills of West Virginia. What he discovers in the cellar — and later inside a wine cask — reveals a decade-old revenge no one imagined. The Other One by A. H. Gibson. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

This story by A. H. Gibson delivers the kind of eerie, slow-building tension that early pulp fiction did best. There are no aliens or machines, just good old fashioned pulp fiction.

We know very little about A. H. Gibson, whose story appeared in The Black Cat magazine in the late 1800s — a publication renowned for its strange, psychological, and macabre fiction. Though Gibson never achieved fame, The Other One proves why forgotten writers from the early pulp era deserve rediscovery. It stands as a perfect example of what “lost” truly means — a dark gem waiting to be found again.

From the second issue of The Black Cat in November 1895, on page 34, The Other One by A. H. Gibson…
