He knew, to the exact minute, when he was going to die. And Earth was too far away to reach…. And Miles To Go Before I Sleep by William F. Nolan... That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

More 5 star reviews on Apple Podcasts! This from FabRascal67, “Great, but… Love the storytelling. Keeps the mind busy during slow periods at work. My only complaint is I wish the covers weren’t done by AI.”

Thanks FabRascal67!

And this 5 star review is from Tiger101000, “Great stories… anti AI. Love the show! Perfect bedtime stories for the sci fi lover. Great narration. Disappointed in the AI episode covers.”

Thanks Tiger101000!!

Before The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, our plan was to narrate these stories so people could buy them all over the world. The problem was not many people bought them. After working full time narrating these stories, and trading six months of my life to do so, we had made $180.

My wife thought I was crazy. I thought about giving up, but then I decided to create new covers using AI. Like it or not people DO judge a book by its cover and the ones I created were horrible. AI didn’t make a difference, it made a huge difference and a few months later The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast was born. If it hadn’t been for those new AI images I would have given up and there would never have been a Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

My hope is that the audio you listen to on the podcast is of sufficient quality that you will overlook the images if you don’t like them.

William F. Nolan returns to our podcast today with a really short story. You may remember Small World by Nolan, one of my favorites, which we released almost 3 years ago. From Infinity Science Fiction Magazine in August 1958, turn to page 88, And Miles To Go Before I Sleep by William F. Nolan…

There was more at stake than just a football game for Lancelot Biggs and the crew of the Saturn. So Biggs made a bargain; his rocket emblem in exchange for a new uranium condenser—and how it worked! The Madness of Lancelot Biggs by Nelson S. Bond. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

Some of you have probably noticed that there haven’t been as many podcast episodes lately. That wasn’t planned! We’ve been dealing with a few health issues, which slowed things down a bit. Thankfully, some of that is behind us now, and we’re hoping the rest will be cleared up soon. We’re looking forward to getting back to releasing several episodes a week as soon as we can—thanks for your patience and thanks for sticking with us!

The saga of Lancelot Biggs continues with this story on page 70 of Fantastic Adventures in April 1940, The Madness of Lancelot Biggs by Nelson S. Bond…

Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, He thought he was returning to the familiar rivers and trees of Earth—but the Sacred Iss and the jeweled cliffs of Korus whispered otherwise. In the quiet of an alien dusk, memory and reality blurred, and home was no longer where he left it. The Hills of Home by Alfred Coppel.
