The Visitor by Ray Bradbury - Ray Bradbu...

SCOTT MILLER
About this episode

Exiles on Mars face a barren future until Leonard Mark brings a glimpse of freedom. The Visitor by Ray Bradbury, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, with at least one lost vintage sci-fi short story in every episode.


Another new 5 star review on Apple Podcasts. This one was written by Jedi1Josh who says, “Great Podcast. I’d like to hear more super short stories. Also is there any chance of doing an episode where you read All You Zombies by Heinlein?”


Thanks for your review and requests Josh. We are working on another episode featuring super short stories. As for All You Zombies, to the best of my knowledge that story is not in the public domain so we can’t record it. Sorry to disappoint.


We would love it if you’d leave us a 5 star review on Apple Podcasts if you think we deserve it. And we love to hear from you. Send us an email, scott@lostscifi.com.


We’ve narrated a few Ray Bradbury stories and shared them on the podcast and I liked all of them, but I LOVE this one. From the yellowed and tattered pages of the November 1948 issue of Startling Stories our story can be found on page 131, The Visitor by Ray Bradbury…


I narrated The Visitor not only because it was written by Ray Bradbury, it’s more than that, the idea that greed and envy can mess up a good thing is such a simple but meaningful concept, and a great lesson. I searched for a long time and I couldn’t find this story available anywhere which is another reason I narrated The Visitor.


Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Walter Sills labored for years as an unknown laboratory worker—but at fifty he makes his great discovery! Fame, riches are to be his fate—until interference looms up in the form of a few unlikable characters — and Nature herself! The Magnificent Possession by Isaac Asimov, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.
