Most experiments were dropped because they failed\\u2014and some because they worked too well! The Water Eater by Winston Marks, that\\u2019s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, with at least one lost vintage sci-fi short story in every episode.
Our latest 5-star review comes from Bedford Nick on Apple Podcasts in the UK. \\u201cGreat discovery - Just found this and it\\u2019s a real gem. I love the enthusiasm and the narration. I find it a great escape.\\u201d Thanks Bedford Nick!
The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast has climbed into the top 10 Science Fiction Podcasts in Ireland at #9! We\\u2019re #19 in France and #20 in Canada. Thank you for listening, rating, and sharing The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.
And we love getting your emails, we received this from Noel in Edmonton AB Canada\\u2026 \\u201cThanks for the terrific podcast. I\\u2019m new to the show and am loving both the choice of stories and the narration. I also enjoy the introductory comments, which add colour to each episode.
When I hear you talk about lost or forgotten authors it makes me think of James White, who wrote some of my favourite sci-fi short stories ever. He was, I believe, a British sci-fi writer in the 1960\\u2019s. I have never heard anything of his on audio.
Keep up the great work!\\u201d Thanks Noel, we\\u2019re looking for James White stories that we can add to the podcast thanks to you.
Winston Marks wrote a couple of short stories in the early 1940s and then disappeared for more than a decade. He showed up on the sci-fi scene again in 1953 when magazines published 4 of his short stories include The Water Eater.
If Winston Marks sounds familiar it\\u2019s possibly because we\\u2019ve featured him twice before. You may remember \\u201cNever Gut-shoot A Wampus\\u201d and \\u201cSo They Baked A Cake\\u201d.
From the old, yellowed pages of Galaxy Science Fiction in June 1953 our story can be found on page 56. The Water Eater by Winston Marks\\u2026
