About this episode

It’s very difficult to find a good, sound, legal way of stopping an aggressor–when the victims always anxiously invite him to come in and take over! The Incredible Invasion by George O. Smith, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, with at least one lost vintage sci-fi short story in every episode.
