The Perfect Woman by Robert Sheckley - The Early Days of Science Fiction

Published: Sept. 20, 2024, 12:06 a.m.

Somebody once came up with a song title we have never forgotten: \u201cFor every man there is a woman, so why did I gel stuck with you?\u201d Not that Mr. Morcheck felt that way about Myra. He not only believed she was absolutely perfect; you could get a punch in the nose for doubting it! And he was so right\u2014for a while! The Perfect Woman by Robert Sheckley, that\u2019s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.


Actually we have two stories for you today on the podcast. We\u2019ll start with Robert Sheckley, from the pages of Amazing Stories in December 1953, let\u2019s go to page 118, The Perfect Woman by Robert Sheckley\u2026


Up next, a time travel story from the pages of Fantastic Universe magazine in December 1960, Time For Survival by George O. Smith\u2026


Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Jeremy got to Mars, all right, but nobody else came back. And so people would not believe he had actually been there at all. Never on Mars by John Wyndham.
