Scott Miller

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.

The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast - Vintage Sci-Fi Short Stories

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.

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.

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…

Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, 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.

In the Walls of Eryx by H. P. Lovecraft and Kenneth Sterling - The only interplanetary sci-fi story by H. P. Lovecraft

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.

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…

Office Call by Charles E. Fritch

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.

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.

The Man Who Did Things Twice and The Spider and the Fly by Don Mark Lemon

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.

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.

Author Dick Purcell makes his debut on the podcast today. Purcell authored six published stories in 1955 and 1956. His name might ring a bell, Dick Purcell appeared in more than 70 TV shows and movies in the 1930s and 1940s, but that was a different Dick Purcell. The author was born in 1908, the actor in 1905. As is frequently the case with early sci-fi authors we don’t know anything else about him. Peruse the pages of Imagination Stories of Science and Fantasy in
 June 1956 and you will discover our story on page 72, Gunnison's Bonanza by Dick Purcell…

Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, A man with a vendetta, Szabo Tibor, finds himself tasked with recovering a Russian space capsule near New Guinea—but his grudge against the Russians turns the operation into a slow and sinister act of revenge. At the End of the Orbit by Arthur C. Clarke.

Gunnison's Bonanza by Dick Purcell - SciFi Short Story from the 1950s

A man with a vendetta, Szabo Tibor, finds himself tasked with recovering a Russian space capsule near New Guinea—but his grudge against the Russians turns the operation into a slow and sinister act of revenge. At the End of the Orbit by Arthur C. Clarke. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

Arthur C. Clarke is one of the most popular authors on our podcast. We get a lot of requests for his stories and when we release a new episode with one of his stories, it is among our most listened to episodes. At the End of the Orbit is different from most of them that we have narrated so far and like many offerings from sci-fi’s pulp era, it is not only known as At the End of the Orbit but also as Hate. You are about to find out why!

Published in If Worlds of Science Fiction Magazine in November 1961, open your copy to page 84, At the End of the Orbit by Arthur C. Clarke…

Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Take one tiny memory out of a man's life—and the entire universe may turn topsy turvy. My Past is Mine by Gerda Rhoads.

At The End Of The Orbit by Arthur C. Clarke A Short Sci-Fi Story from the 1960s

Take one tiny memory out of a man's life—and the entire universe may turn topsy turvy. My Past is Mine by Gerda Rhoads. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

Another podcast and another vintage science fiction author you’ve probably never heard of. The story you are about to hear is her first published story and as far as we can tell, her only science fiction story. We found three novels written by Rhoads, The Lonely Women, A Place to Sleep, and Enough Romance. There’s a listing on eBay for an autographed copy of Enough Romance which will set you back $120.

Her only sci-fi short story appeared in the October 1954 issue of Fantastic Universe. They had this to say about her, Gerda Rhoads was born in Vienna and came to the United States with her parents by way of London and Rio. She was educated at Hunter College, became a ballet dancer, took up painting and has done some very charming canvases. Then she married a painter and they went to Paris and she turned to writing. Sounds glamorous, doesn't it? With the publication of this her first story Gerda Rhoads proves her pen is glamor-tipped too. This interesting short story begins on page 82, My Past is Mine by Gerda Rhoads…

Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Fear is often Man's greatest enemy. But when there is nothing left to lose, there is everything to gain.... And with everything to gain, where is the enemy? The Outer Quiet by Herbert D. Kastle.

My Past is Mine by Gerda Rhoads - From the October 1954 issue of Fantastic Universe

Mr. Meek was having his troubles. First, the educated bugs worried him; then the welfare worker tried to stop the Ring Rats' feud by enlisting his aid. And now, he was a drafted space-polo player—a fortune bet on his ability at a game he had never played in his cloistered life. Mr. Meek Plays Polo by Clifford D. Simak. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

Another first for our podcast today, back to back episodes by the same author featuring the same character. Yesterday Clifford D. Simak’s Mr. Meek got himself in a little trouble and today the mild mannered bookkeeper from Earth finds himself in another pickle.

From Planet Stories magazine in the fall of 1944 our space-faring hero’s journey begins on page 56, Mr. Meek Plays Polo by Clifford D. Simak…

Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, we will do something we have never done on the podcast, and something we may never do again.
