A ruthless metal monster is programmed to destroy—and only one man can stop it. Robot Nemesis by E. E. Doc Smith. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

Edward Elmer Smith, better known as “Doc” Smith, was born in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, back in 1890. He earned a degree in chemical engineering from the University of Idaho in 1914, and later worked as a chemist for the U.S. Department of Agriculture in Washington, D.C.

While he had a solid career in science, he’s best remembered today for his pioneering work in science fiction—especially the Skylark series and the Lensman universe. Over the years, he wrote more novels than short stories, helping lay the groundwork for the space operas that followed.

We will discover our story on page 72 in Thrilling Wonder Stories Magazine, June 1939, Robot Nemesis by E. E. Doc Smith…

Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Marooned on a world within a world, aided by a slim girl and an old warrior, Patrolman Sisko Rolf was fighting his greatest battle—to bring life to dying Mars. The Hairy Ones by Basil Wells.

Together they discussed the Nobles—the old prospector and the weary, frightened man. Then—utter terror struck! The Nobles Are Coming by Arthur Jean Cox. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

Today’s featured fiction is like a bite-sized candy bar—same rich ingredients, just in a smaller package. Arthur Jean Cox, born in 1929, was a science fiction fan before becoming an author. Based in the Los Angeles area, his work appeared under a variety of names, including Ralph Carghill, Jean Cox, Gene Cross, William Dean, and John Thames Rokesmith.

From the pages of Fantastic Universe Magazine in October 1954, the same publication that brought us Office Call by Charles E. Fritch and My Past is Mine by Gerda Rhodes, turn to page 125, The Nobles Are Coming by Arthur Jean Cox…

A shattered Earth suddenly remembered poor Hathaway, marooned all alone there on Mars by the mad rush homeward. But—was Hathaway alone? Dwellers in Silence by Ray Bradbury. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

From time to time, we feature stories that were published in more than one magazine—often under different titles. That means we sometimes have to decide which title to use. Today, Ray Bradbury returns to the podcast with a story that first appeared in Maclean’s Magazine, published in Toronto, Canada, in its September 1948 issue, titled The Long Years. A few months later, in the Spring 1949 edition of Planet Stories, the tale resurfaced under a new title on page 51, Dwellers in Silence by Ray Bradbury…
