Description

“Who is Sylvia? What is she?” Oh, no! What is Sylvia… and who isn’t she? Upon the Dull Earth 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. Support the show - https://www.buymeacoffee.com/scottsV We’ve had some interesting Philip K. Dick stories here on the podcast, but we’ve never heard really scary stories from PKD. Until now. And in two days we’re going to hear a scary creepy story from Philip K. Dick, a really creepy story.  Sandwiched in between we’ll hear from legendary author Ray Bradbury. There were only 10 issues of Beyond Fantasy Fiction Magazine published from 1953 to 1955, and the last two issues changed the cover name to Beyond Fiction. Today’s scary story appears in the next to last issue of the short-lived publication. Our scary story can be found in the November 1954 issue and begins on page 70, Upon the Dull Earth by Philip K. Dick… Tomorrow on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, They hated this little beat-up old guy. Even if his crazy cosmic brain could track a meteor clear across the Galaxy, why did he have to smash the super-sensitive detectors? Jonah of the Jove-Run by Ray Bradbury. That’s tomorrow on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. Support the show
