Another 5 Star review on Apple Podcasts, davidautrey says, “Amazing Opportunity To glimpse back, like a Sci fi time machine. Particularly amazing; the Sci fi from 1700s. Glad I found this show. You are like a pre tv radio, a hit too.” Thanks David, we’re glad you found us too and thanks for your review.

We love narrating science fiction stories by Ray Bradbury, Philip K. Dick, Isaac Asimov and other authors that most people are familiar with. However, the reason we started The Lost SciFi Podcast, and the reason it’s called Lost SciFi is because of stories like the one you are about to hear from an author you’ve probably never heard of.

Shelton is one of those authors that we know almost nothing about, but we were able to uncover some information that he was a US Soldier who served during World War II. A man named Jerry Shelton wrote a letter to Astounding Stories that was published in Astounding Stories in October 1945. In the letter he says, “I just scrounged a tattered copy of the May issue and the article about the V2. I don’t know whether you have had any letters from Astounding readers that have sweated those things out, but I think I have an interesting idea to offer that comes from personal observation. Here I am running around in a sweat trying to dodge something all us science fiction guys have been writing and dreaming of — it’s actually a reality — and I’m on the wrong end, and I can’t write and tell Campbell that somebody is really on the way to space!”

Jerry Shelton had 5 short science fiction stories published from 1944 to 1947. This is the last of those stories which appeared on page 89 in Thrilling Wonder Stories in June 1947. You Are Forbidden by Jerry Shelton…

Next on The Lost SciFi Podcast, Experimenting with the eyes can be a very dangerous thing. You can go blind—or maybe you’ll see something no man alive was meant to look upon!. Beyond the Ultra Violet by Frank M. Robinson.
