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

It was a wonderful bodyguard: no bark, no bite, no sting ... just conversion of the enemy! Martians Never Die by Lucius Daniel. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

We went through a stretch where episodes were a little scarce, but that’s changing now—we’re going all in! Our goal is to bring you a brand-new episode every single day for the rest of 2025. If we can pull it off, we’ll cross the 500-episode mark by December. Thanks so much for sticking with us and supporting the podcast.

When our YouTube channel got wrongfully shut down last year, a lot of you told us that what we really lost was the sense of community we’d built together. So—we’re fixing that! 🎉 We’re launching a Discord server where you can hang out with other listeners, ask questions, join us for live narrations, and just be part of the fun again. You’ll find the invite link in the description—we’d love to see you there!

Lucius Daniel makes his first appearance on the podcast today! We wish we could share a full backstory on him, but like many authors who only published a handful of tales, there’s not much information out there. What we do know is that he gave us three stories—one in 1952, another in 1953, and a final one in 1954.

His first story appeared in Galaxy Science Fiction in April 1952 on page 105, Martians Never Die by Lucius Daniel…

Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Captain Brandon was a pioneer. He explored the far reaches of space and reported back on how things were out there. So it was pretty disquieting to find out that the “far reaches of space” knew more about what went on at home than he did. The Quantum Jump by Robert Wicks.

Strange Alliance by Bryce Walton

The space ships were miracles of power and precision; the men who manned them, rich in endurance and courage. Every detail had been checked and double checked; every detail except—The Nothing Equation by Tom Godwin. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

Tom Godwin was born in Maryland back in 1915, and life wasn’t exactly easy for him early on—he left school after the third grade. But he had a wild imagination and a passion for stories, which eventually led him to the world of science fiction in the 1950s. 

He didn’t write a ton, but the stories he did publish really stuck—most famously The Cold Equations, a tale that’s still sparking debates today. Godwin had a way of throwing ordinary people into extraordinary, no-win situations, and that’s what made his work unforgettable.

Just so you know The Cold Equations is on our list of stories to narrate in the future.

Ordinary people, extraordinary situations is a good way to introduce our story. Let’s turn to page 87 in the December 1957 issue of Amazing Stories, The Nothing Equation by Tom Godwin…

The Nothing Equation by Tom Godwin

They were inside the sun, in a temperature of 900 Kelvin. With the refrigerators out there was only one wild chance to pull through. Ground by Hal Clement. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

We’re back! 🎉 After a tough stretch with some health challenges, that’s all behind us now—and we couldn’t be more excited. You’ll be seeing lots more episodes every week, and we’ve got another big change coming your way.

We’ve heard from so many of you asking for longer stories, and guess what? They’re on the way! These longer tales will be split into episodes about an hour to an hour and a half each, released on consecutive days—so you can settle in and really enjoy the ride.

Author Hal Clement returns to the podcast today. We featured the story Hot Planet written by Clement almost a year ago.

Back in December 1953, a lot was happening. A devastating tornado outbreak in the Southern US claimed 49 lives, and on the other side of the world, a tragic train accident in New Zealand took 151 lives when a bridge collapsed. Meanwhile, in the US, the very first color TVs hit the shelves—though with their steep price tags, most folks didn’t bring one home until the mid-60s or even the early 70s.

And the December 1953 issue of Science Fiction Adventures brought readers Consignment by Alan E. Nourse and The Hanging Stranger by Philip K. Dick—two incredible stories you might remember from the podcast. On page 142 of that issue we will find today’s story, Ground by Hal Clement…

Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, The space ships were miracles of power and precision; the men who manned them, rich in endurance and courage. Every detail had been checked and double checked; every detail except—The Nothing Equation by Tom Godwin.

Fall of Knight by A. Bertram Chandler

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…

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.

You Nailed the Future, Joe—Why Didn’t You See This Coming? You Were Right, Joe by J. T. McIntosh. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

We start the podcast today with a huge THANK YOU to you, our listeners around the world. We’ve just reached a new milestone — we’re now the #2 Science Fiction Podcast in Japan! That makes 44 countries where we are #1 or #2. We are thankful for your amazing support.

Today, we’re proud to introduce another voice in vintage science fiction: J. T. McIntosh.

From Galaxy Science Fiction in November 1957 let’s turn to page 30 for an interesting take on time travel, You Were Right, Joe by J. T. McIntosh…

You Were Right, Joe by J. T. McIntosh

A fascinating story about a heinous crime and its strange aftermath. The Thing in the Trunk by Paul Ernst. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

Calling Paul Ernst a prolific writer barely scratches the surface—he penned over 200 short stories across multiple genres, with around 170 in science fiction alone. He contributed nearly 40 tales to Weird Tales magazine, and the story you’re about to hear is unquestionably one of the weirdest.

From the pages of the November 1938 publication of Weird Tales Magazine on page 573, The Thing in the Trunk by Paul Ernst…

Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, When a brilliant inventor tries to control volcanic eruptions with a mechanical valve, his bold experiment threatens to unleash fiery chaos on an unsuspecting world. The Volcanic Valve by W. L. Alden.
