    Star Of Panadur by Albert dePina and Henry Hasse

    A stranded explorer on Jupiter’s frozen moon discovers that the greatest danger is not the brutal landscape but the choices made when desperation takes hold. When an alien race reveals powers far beyond human understanding, Hugh Betancourt must decide whether some discoveries are too valuable to bring home. Star Of Panadur by Albert De Pina and Henry Hasse. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. Henry Hasse has appeared on the podcast before, but today marks the Lost Sci-Fi Podcast debut of Albert dePina. Albert Robert dePina was born in 1901 in Havana, Cuba. Like many writers from the pulp science fiction era, very little is known about his life. Between 1943 and 1954, he published just ten stories, four of them co-written with Henry Hasse. dePina passed away in 1956 at the age of 55, less than two years after the publication of his final story. Turn to page 65 in Planet Stories, March 1943, Star Of Panadur by Albert dePina and Henry Hasse… Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, A young god wagers billions of years on a daring experiment that every elder around him expects to fail. If he can prove that intelligence and compassion can grow together, an entirely new species may change the future of the galaxy—or confirm its darkest doubts. Day’s Work by Noel Loomis.

    The New Accelerator by H. G. Wells

    A breakthrough drug gives two men access to a world where ordinary life appears frozen, turning a quiet seaside afternoon into something almost impossible to comprehend.

H. G. Wells is best known for classics like The Time Machine, The War of the Worlds, and The Invisible Man, but his shorter fiction often contains some of his most inventive ideas. Today’s story asks a fascinating question: what would happen if a scientific discovery allowed you to experience hours while the rest of the world experienced only seconds?

    Some Words With a Mummy by Edgar Allan Poe

    A late-night experiment meant to impress a room full of scholars turns humiliating when their ancient guest begins judging the modern world instead. A scientific curiosity becomes a razor-sharp battle of egos, where every proud claim about progress risks another devastating laugh. Some Words With a Mummy by Edgar Allan Poe. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. There have been a few Edgar Allan Poe stories featured on the podcast. Like H. P. Lovecraft, Poe wasn’t originally an author we planned to include. But we pay close attention to your feedback, and many of you have asked for more Lovecraft and more Poe—so we’re happy to deliver. And speaking of feedback, we always love hearing from you. If there’s a story, author, or type of science fiction you’d like us to feature, send us an email at scott@lostscifi.com and let us know. Your suggestions help shape the future of The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.
