Across unimaginable scales of time and space, a young explorer risks everything to prove that intelligence can bloom in the most unlikely conditions. When his search for reason turns into an accusation of harm, the fate of two civilizations hangs on what it truly means to be rational. Some Like it Cold by Dave Dryfoos. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

Dave Dryfoos has never been on the podcast, but I enjoyed narrating this story and this won’t be the last time we hear from him. He was born in San Francisco in 1915. Dryfoos was in the United States Army during World War II, serving in Australia, New Guinea, and the Philippines.

He wrote about 20 short stories that were published between 1950 and 1955 and then his literary work came to an end. He retired as assistant hospital administrator at Camarillo State Psychiatric Hospital in California in 1980.

If you walked up to a newsstand in November 1952 with a quarter in your pocket you could’ve purchased the most recent issue of Startling Stories magazine. And if you peeled back the pages you would find an intriguing tale of a spacefarer stumbling upon, well I don’t want to give it away. Find out for yourself on page 108, Some Like it Cold by Dave Dryfoos…

Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, What if the people who feel out of place aren’t broken — but simply living in the wrong world? One man’s brilliant solution promises escape, fulfillment, and happiness… until the cost of paradise becomes impossible to ignore. The Worlds of Joe Shannon by Frank M. Robinson.
