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 Cold Equations by Tom Godwin

    The Cold Equations by Tom Godwin
    Dec 23 2025

    A routine emergency mission becomes an unforgiving test of physics, law, and human conscience. When one hidden mistake is discovered, a pilot must face a decision that no training could ever prepare him for. The Cold Equations by Tom Godwin. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.


    Today’s episode marks a major milestone. Although it’s episode 465, it features the 500th story ever presented on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. Over the years, some episodes have included two stories—and occasionally even more—but this one stands apart.


    What makes it especially meaningful to me is simple: out of all the remarkable stories we’ve shared during nearly four years of the podcast, this is my personal favorite. When it was first published, the story sparked intense backlash. Many readers were furious, and author Tom Godwin received no shortage of criticism. In just a few moments, you’ll understand exactly why.


    We’d love to hear your thoughts. Send us an email at scott@lostscifi.com.

  • The Shambler From the Stars by Robert Bloch

    The Shambler From the Stars by Robert Bloch
    Dec 21 2025
    A struggling writer’s obsession with forbidden knowledge leads him to a discovery no human mind was meant to grasp. One reckless act opens a doorway to something vast, unseen, and utterly indifferent to human life. The Shambler From The Stars by Robert Bloch. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.Haven’t mentioned Rise lately, the all in one wellness drink and the only product I have ever found to get rid of diabetic neuropathy pain. If you have neuropathy you know how awful it is. My pain was so intense it used to wake me up in the middle of the night and I couldn’t go back to sleep.Not anymore. That’s why I take Rise every day. If it didn’t work for me, I wouldn’t recommend it. One scoop a day, with over 50 natural ingredients, helps me stay energized, focused, and pain free and when you are almost 67, like I am that isn’t easy. It supports my immune system, my digestion, my mood, and even my joints.Since starting Rise, I’ve been pain free, felt more alive and more ready to embrace the day. It makes a difference for me.There’s a link in the description, or visit lostscifi.com and click on Rise to see what it can do for you.Rise - http://Lostscifi.com/riseI don’t usually do this, but today we’re making an exception. I want to talk about the next story on the podcast—not today’s episode, but the one that follows.When this story was first published, readers flooded the magazine with letters of protest. They called the author cold. They called the story cruel. They argued it should never have been written the way it was.Decades later, that same story is considered a cornerstone of hard science fiction. It’s taught, debated, and regularly included on lists of the most important science-fiction stories ever written.You don’t want to miss this one.Robert Bloch returns today with a story that first appeared on page 368 in Weird Tales magazine in September 1935, The Shambler From The Stars by Robert Bloch.…Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, A routine emergency mission becomes an unforgiving test of physics, law, and human conscience.

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!

Vintage Sci-Fi at its BEST!
