The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast - Vintage Sci-Fi Short Stories
Fiction:Science Fiction
Intelligent parents readily understand why they must not try to educate and train their children. Robots do it much better; they do not confuse them with complexes or emotions or petty impulses. Even tired old Ed Doyle could tell you that much… Progeny by Philip K. Dick, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, with at least one lost vintage sci-fi short story in every episode.

Spotify sent us an email yesterday notifying us about all the comments and reviews we’ve been receiving which we didn’t even know about. JillieSue says, “Love the reader. HG Wells was waaaaaay ahead of his time.” Thank you for the compliment JillieSue and we agree Wells was way ahead of his time!
Sandman says, “Discovered this podcast by accident now listen most nights all the way across here in Scotland, great narration, love the stories... More Isaac Asimov if possible 😁” Thank you Sandman and you’ll be happy to know there’s more Asimov on the way.
The brilliant mind of Philip K. Dick is once again on display today on the podcast. From the tattered pages of the November 1954 issue of If Worlds of Science Fiction Magazine comes a story that’s starting to sound all the more realistic in the world we live in today, some 69 years after it was written.
Our story can be found on page 64, Progeny by Philip K. Dick…
Tomorrow on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Human nature is unchanging and will probably not change fundamentally for countless ages in the future. We look back now to the days before the automobile and before electricity and the hundred and one other mechanical conveniences that simplify life in so many ways. Just so people of the future will in all likelihood look back on pre-television and pre-flying days and wish themselves back in the exciting days of primitive life. Our well-known author gives us here a thought-provoking bit of literature of scientific interest. The Cosmic Express by Jack Williamson. That’s tomorrow on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.
