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

De: Scott Miller
  • Resumen

  • 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. Our spacefaring odyssey takes us beyond the confines of light-years, venturing into the unknown to unveil the secrets of distant planets and the enigmatic beings that inhabit them.


    Join us three 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, Fritz Leiber, Alan E. Nourse, Frederik Pohl, and countless others, we bring you short stories that have shaped the genre for generations.


    Prepare to journey back in time, sixty, 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.

  • Arena by Fredric Brown - The Early Days of Science Fiction
    Oct 3 2024

    It was a weird sort of battle for survival–not only of individuals, but each, against his will, represented his whole race. And the battle rested on ingenuity, tenacity and courage, not strength alone. Arena by Frederic Brown, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.


    Thank you Carolyn Guthleben for buying us 3 coffees! “Thank you for a great show. I love good, real sci-fi, and it’s so hard to find. Many a dinner has been cooked while you sent me into outer space!!! Time flys and pasta boils when you’re having fun! Thanks Scott the coffee’s on me!”


    Thank you Carolyn! If you would like to buy us a coffee there is a link in the description.

    Today on the podcast, a story many of you have been asking for.

  • Spawning Ground by Lester Del Rey - Short Sci-Fi Story From the 1960s
    Sep 30 2024

    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.

Vintage Sci-Fi at its BEST!

An excellent collection of short stories from various writers long forgotten in many cases. Many of them I had never heard of, but they are now part of my listening collection. The narrator is top-notch and brings each story to life..Bravo Sir!
