Adventure flamed in Mr. Meek's timorous heart, the surge of battle and singing blades. And so, with a rocket-ship for his steed and a ray-gun for his sword, he sallied forth ... carrying cavalier justice to the resentful shining stars. Mr. Meek—Musketeer by Clifford D. Simak. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

There have been a flood of 5 star reviews in countries all over the world recently. This 5 star review is from Paulzzzzzz on Apple Podcasts Great Britain, “Wondrous stories. I absolutely love the podcasts. Scott is such a wonderful voice actor and brings every character to life! Keep up the great work guys! From a fellow Astral Traveler.”

Thanks Paulzzzzzz! We will never be able to thank you and all our listeners around the world enough for our success. Your reviews make a difference and help grow our audience, thank you!

Clifford D. Simak has been on the podcast many times and he’s back today with the first of two stories back to back. Let’s turn back the clock almost 81 years ago to the Summer 1944 issue of Planet Stories magazine. Today’s story can be found right after a story we featured on the podcast a long time ago, Morgue Ship by Ray Bradbury. Go to page 58 and you will find, Mr. Meek—Musketeer by Clifford D. Simak…

Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Mr. Meek was having his troubles. First, the educated bugs worried him; then the welfare worker tried to stop the Ring Rats' feud by enlisting his aid. And now, he was a drafted space-polo player—a fortune bet on his ability at a game he had never played in his cloistered life. Mr. Meek Plays Polo by Clifford D. Simak.
