Dimension X Presents: Two Expeditions to Mars This week on Ron's Amazing Stories, we turn our attention skyward to one of the most influential works of science fiction ever written — The Martian Chronicles by Ray Bradbury. First published in 1950, Bradbury's interconnected stories of Mars weren't really about rockets or planets. They were about us — our memories, our habits, and the things we carry with us wherever we go. Tonight's program features two outstanding radio adaptations from NBC's classic series Dimension X, bringing Bradbury's Mars to life through sound and imagination alone. In This Episode A personal reflection on discovering The Martian Chronicles in a high school English class A brief history of Ray Bradbury and the creation of The Martian Chronicles "Mars Is Heaven!" — a haunting early expedition where Mars feels a little too familiar "—And the Moon Be Still as Bright" — the fourth mission to Mars, and the cost of changing a new world A reflective commentary on Bradbury's warnings, radio storytelling, and why these stories still matter today Bradbury once said he wasn't trying to predict the future — he was trying to prevent it. Decades later, his stories still ask the same quiet question: when we reach somewhere new, do we listen first… or do we remake it in our own image?

In the summer of 1960, seven-year-old Roger Woodward was just a kid looking forward to a boat ride on the Niagara River to celebrate his sister's birthday—he had no idea he was about to experience something that should have been impossible. When a simple mechanical failure turned their peaceful afternoon into a nightmare, Roger found himself being swept toward the edge of Niagara Falls, powerless against 750,000 gallons of water rushing past him every second. What followed was a series of moments so improbable, so perfectly timed, that witnesses called it a miracle—from his sister's desperate fight for survival just feet from the brink, to Roger's own journey over a 188-foot waterfall. This is the story of the boy who fell into Niagara Falls and lived, and the ordinary people who became heroes in the most extraordinary circumstances.

In this episode of Ron's Amazing Stories, we return to the tense days of 1940, when the world was already at war—and America was watching the storm clouds gather. The Story comes from Lux Radio Theatre: the radio adaptation of the MGM film Flight Command. Released in 1940, the film starred Robert Taylor, Ruth Hussey, and Walter Pidgeon, with all three reprising their roles for radio. It was the first Hollywood film to openly glorify the American military after the outbreak of World War II in Europe—arriving a full year before the United States entered the conflict. The story follows Navy Ensign Alan Drake, a rookie pilot assigned to an elite fighter squadron known as the "Hellcats." Struggling with early mistakes and a damaging misunderstanding, Drake must ultimately prove his skill, courage, and character during a dangerous test of new blind-landing equipment. In the opening segment, Ron explores Flight Command's place in history and its quiet role in preparing audiences for the realities ahead. Before the story begins, we look at the real-life inspiration behind the film's squadron: Fighting Squadron 8 (VF-8), one of the Navy's early elite aviation units. In the closing segment, Ron discusses the real-world invention that made the film's dramatic finale possible—the early instrument landing systems that allowed pilots to land safely in zero-visibility conditions, forever changing aviation. A story of duty, discipline, and courage in uncertain times—this is Flight Command.

Episode 169: The Amazing Story of Cher Ami (a special episode for Alexi de Coup-crank)
TV Mastermind Bryan Fuller (Hannibal, Pushing Daisies) makes his feature directorial debut with Dust Bunny starring Mads Mikkelsen, Sigourney Weaver, and newcomer Sophie Sloan. On the surface this film has nothing to do with Steven Spielberg, but it turns out that it was originally developed as an episode of the Amazing Stories reboot and Spielberg himself gave notes on the script that survived to this feature version. Fuller talks all about that creative collaboration as well as his relationship with Spielberg's work and even gives us some of his patented "queer readings" of some unlikely contenders from Spielberg's filmography that spoke to his own queer coming of age.

This week on Ron's Amazing Stories, we wander into the shadows—literally. We're featuring two classic old-time radio programs that built their reputations on unseen narrators and atmospheric storytelling: The Shadow and The Whistler. Each one whispers from the darkness, but with personalities that couldn't be more different. Our first story is "Death House Rescue" from The Shadow, originally aired on September 26, 1937. In this tale, a man is wrongly sentenced to die for killing a policeman during a bank robbery. The Shadow steps in, using his uncanny ability to slip into the minds of others to uncover the truth. After the first story, we take a short break to talk about the two famous narrators—how they guided generations of listeners while staying completely unseen. Then we turn to "Not If I Kill You First" from The Whistler, broadcast February 12, 1944. It's a dark tale of greed, betrayal, and the promise of $30,000—though the loser pays with more than just money. We close the show by tying these two shadowy voices together and share a bonus segment with some fun trivia from the golden age of radio. If you love atmospheric drama, classic crime stories, or simply enjoy wandering the dimly lit hallways of radio's past, this is your episode.

Today, December 10th, the Church celebrates the optional memorial of Our Lady of Loreto, commemorating the miraculous Holy House that journeyed from Nazareth to Loreto, Italy. As Pope Francis officially inscribed it into the General Roman Calendar in 2019, this feast reminds us of the profound mystery of the Incarnation and the sanctity of the Holy Family. Tradition tells us that angels transported Mary's childhood home to protect it during the Crusades. Historical sources, including the 1913 Catholic Encyclopedia, note that the stones match those from Nazareth, with Greek and Hebrew inscriptions confirming its origin (Catholic Encyclopedia, 1913).The Holy House, now enshrined in the Basilica della Santa Casa, is not merely a relic but a living icon of God's presence, where the Word became flesh. Fr. Chris reflects on the domestic church, the family, and our responsibility to teach and live the faith at home: “Are you teaching your faith in your home? Are you living the virtues of our faith?” (DH 12/10). Just as Mary and Joseph nurtured Jesus in their household, parents today are called to instill faith, hope, and love within their families.Our Lady of Loreto is also the patroness of aviators, a reminder that God's protection spans both the ordinary and extraordinary journeys of life. Fr. Chris shares how personal faith is nurtured by fathers and spiritual mentors, highlighting the transformative power of guidance, prayer, and example. In a society where the family is under attack, turning to the Holy Family and Our Lady of Loreto offers protection, inspiration, and hope for every household. Let us pray for our families, asking Mary and Joseph to guide, protect, and bless them, especially during this Christmas season. ★ Support this podcast ★
In a future where humanity has grown soft, only their self-evolving machine descendants stand between Earth and an unstoppable alien force. As the last humans watch the end of their own era, a new kind of intelligence rises to decide the fate of everything that lives—or once lived. The Last Evolution by John W. Campbell. That's next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.We will never be able to thank you enough for everything you do for The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. Spotify just released their annual Spotify Wrapped, and thanks to you, The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast was honored with three awards — a 2025 Marathon Show, meaning you listened to us more than 99% of the millions of podcasts on Spotify… a 2025 Talked About Show, with more comments than 99% of all podcasts… and a 2025 Most Shared Show, with more shares than 99% of every podcast on Spotify. You made this possible. Thank You!John W. Campbell would become one of the most influential men in early science fiction as the editor of Astounding Science Fiction magazine. In fact Isaac Asimov said he was, "the most powerful force in science fiction ever”. Campbell encouraged author Cleve Cartmill to write a story—and collaborated closely with him—that laid out the fundamental principles behind building an atomic bomb, nearly a year before the first nuclear test. When the story appeared in print, the accuracy of its scientific details alarmed authorities enough that the FBI showed up at Campbell's office, demanding that the issue be pulled from newsstands. Campbell argued that suppressing the magazine would draw far more attention to the existence of a secret government project than simply leaving it alone. His reasoning prevailed, and the issue remained in circulation.If you've ever wondered what Artificial Intelligence could mean for humanity's future you might want to pay close attention to today's story. First published on page 414 in Amazing Stories in August 1932, The Last Evolution by John W. Campbell…Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, A hard-nosed troubleshooter arrives on the Moon to investigate vanished rocketships, only to stumble onto a secret no human was ever meant to find.

This week on Ron's Amazing Stories we step aboard a ship loaded with adventure, rebellion, and old-school Hollywood charm. Our feature comes from Lux Radio Theater and is the radio adaptation of the 1935 classic Captain Blood, starring Errol Flynn and Olivia de Havilland. Both reprise their roles, bringing the swashbuckling tale to life all over again. We take a moment to explore the real history behind the story—its roots in the Monmouth Rebellion, the fictional-yet-inspired character of Dr. Peter Blood, and the bold musical choices of composer Erich Wolfgang Korngold, whose groundbreaking score helped usher in the era of full symphonic soundtracks. And at the end of the show, we answer a listener email from John Pierce of Oklahoma City, who wants to know why Alan Ladd ranks so highly on my personal list of Hollywood greats. I give my take in a short segment you won't want to miss.

This time on Ron's Amazing Stories, we bring you a special Box 13 double feature suggested by listener Pete Toreck from Miami, Florida. We kick things off with the very first adventure Dan Holiday ever tackled, The First Letter. Then we follow it up with one of the most listened-to stories of the entire run, The Professor and The Puzzle. Between the two tales, we take a humorous look at the advice columnists of the 1950s—those brave souls who solved life's everyday mysteries one letter at a time. This episode also marks a milestone: we close out the last known radio acting done by Alan Ladd. Known is the key word—because the world of old-time radio is full of surprises. I may continue with more Box 13 stories in the future, and if you know of any Ladd broadcasts I haven't covered, let me know!

This week on Ron's Amazing Stories, we take you back into the shadowy world of Suspense — one of radio's greatest achievements and the last show to fade out at the end of the Golden Age. Our theme this time is time and perception, and we've got two unforgettable stories that explore both. Our first tale is Time On My Hands, a husband and wife set out to do the impossible — go back in time to stop Adolf Hitler. Can history be rewritten, or is time itself the one enemy no man can defeat? Then, we'll step into A World of Darkness (January 20, 1944). Told through the eyes — or rather, the ears — of a blind man, this gripping mystery reveals how sound can paint pictures far more vivid than sight ever could. Between these stories, we'll pause for a brief look at the history of Suspense, the show that kept listeners on edge for over two decades and closed the curtain on radio's golden era. Featured Stories: Suspense – "Time On My Hands" (9/25/1960) Suspense – "A World Of Darkness" (1/20/1944) Also in this episode: A short history of Suspense The real science behind how the blind "see" without sight Ron's thoughts on the impossibility of changing time A special Thanksgiving episode teaser — send in your ideas!

Long before “UFOlogy” became a pop-culture craze, one curious Michigan teen was already out there chasing lights in the sky. In the mid-1960s, while his friends were lost in the worlds of comic book heroes and alien adventures, Steve Ward was living one for real. Strange crafts were being reported over the Midwest, glowing shapes darting through the night, and supernatural activity spreading through nearby towns. Most kids would've stayed inside with a flashlight and a stack of Amazing Stories. Steve grabbed a real one and went looking. What he found out there would blur the line between science fiction and reality forever. That single night—one boy, one beam of light, and a sky full of mysteries—sparked a lifelong fascination with the unknown. It pushed Steve from wide-eyed fandom into decades of investigation, research, and encounters that would shape his understanding of what might be out there. Today on The Grave Talks, we travel back to the 1960s to relive the moment a young sci-fi dreamer stepped into the world of real-life UFOs—and discovered that sometimes, the truth is stranger than fiction. This is Part Two of our conversation. #TheGraveTalks #UFOEncounters #TrueUFOStory #SteveWard #AlienSightings #ParanormalPodcast #MichiganMysteries #UnexplainedPhenomena #UFOHistory #CloseEncounters Love real ghost stories?

This week on Ron's Amazing Stories we head back to the world of Hollywood radio drama with Screen Director's Playhouse. It's the third time in a few weeks we've featured Alan Ladd — and this one helped shape his signature tough-guy style. (Links to those other stories: Shane and Beyond Glory) The story is Lucky Jordan, based on the 1942 film directed by Frank Tuttle. It's about a smooth gangster drafted into the Army who finds himself on an unexpected road to redemption. The radio version aired in 1951 and ran a full hour, giving it time to capture the wit, grit, and heart of the original film. If you love sharp dialogue, strong characters, and classic sound design — this one delivers all three. So, sit back, relax, and enjoy Alan Ladd in Lucky Jordan from Screen Director's Playhouse!

This week marks the final chapter of our Month of Spooky, and we're ending it with a creaking door and a chill in the air. It's a double dose of fright from one of old-time radio's finest — Inner Sanctum Mysteries. We'll hear two unforgettable tales: Dead Man's Vengeance (October 7, 1944) – A chilling story where the host himself, Raymond, becomes the target of a supernatural hit list. The Corridor of Doom (October 23, 1945) – Starring the great Boris Karloff, this haunting tale follows a man lost in a hospital corridor that may lead straight into madness. Between the stories, Ron dives deep into Inner Sanctum's eerie history — its creaking doors, its pun-loving host, and its strange ability to make us both laugh and shiver. He also reflects on why we like to be scared and what keeps these old tales alive more than 80 years later. So, pull up a chair, dim the lights, and join us for one last visit to the shadows.

This week on Ron's Amazing Stories, we bring you a haunted double feature that's equal parts laughter and fright! Our first tale stars Bob Hope in the Screen Directors Playhouse adaptation of The Ghost Breakers (April 3rd, 1949). It's a spooky romp filled with witty one-liners, mistaken identities, and a manor full of “boo”s and belly laughs. Then, we trade laughter for goosebumps with Suspense's Ghost Hunt (June 23rd, 1949). A radio host spends the night in a haunted mansion where the echoes might be more than just sound effects. It's one of the creepiest stories ever broadcast. Between our two stories, I'll be talking about why we love to scare ourselves, how humor helps us face our fears, and a few real-life haunted homes that continue to keep the lights on—and the whispers going. So, grab your flashlight and your funny bone—because this week we're exploring Comedy and Creeps: A Haunted Double Feature.

Researchers from Emory University have found that the #1 predictor of a child's emotional well-being is how well that kid knows his family history. So this week, I'd like to talk to you about storytelling, about how important stories are for the growth and development and emotional wellbeing of our children, and about what kinds of stories we as parents need to make sure we are passing down to our kids. I hope you'll listen in and be encouraged.

It's the spooky season, and this week Ron's Amazing Stories takes a ride on the rails of the supernatural with two chilling tales from the classic radio series The Mysterious Traveler. Our first story, “The Devil and the Deep Blue Sea” (1949), plunges us into the depths with a diver who meets a ghostly visitor with a deadly ultimatum. Then we'll steam ahead with “Locomotive Ghost” (1947), where two train robbers find themselves haunted by the very engine they tried to destroy. Between stories, Ron explores why we humans love being scared — and what that says about us. If you enjoy your frights with a touch of humor and a dash of nostalgia, this episode's your ticket to ride. What You Will Hear A brief history of The Mysterious Traveler Why October brings out our love of the spooky and strange The Devil and the Deep Blue Sea – A diver faces a ghost's deadly demand (Aired Jan. 1, 1949). Locomotive Ghost – A haunting on the rails (Aired July 7, 1947). A discussion of why we love to be creeped out. A closing reflection on the enduring charm of vintage radio chills.

Steven Spielberg tried his hand at a Twilight Zone-ish series in 1985 that didn't exactly set the ratings world on fire, but would prove to be formative for a whole generation of imaginative kids. Amazing Stories brought in a combination of seasoned pros like Scorsese and Clint Eastwood and exciting, young talent, including today's guest, writer and filmmaker Mick Garris. Mick became famous for his Stephen King adaptations like The Stand and The Shining mini-series, but it was Steven Spielberg who gave him his first shot, first writing a few episodes on the first season of Amazing Stories, and then acting as head writer overseeing all the scripts coming in before eventually giving him a chance at directing an episode in Season 2. Mick makes his first appearance on The Spiel talking about his time on Amazing Stories, collaborating with Spielberg, and writing for people like Martin Scorsese and Joe Dante.

This week on Ron's Amazing Stories we head back to 1951 for The Screen Directors Playhouse production of Beyond Glory. The play first aired on May 31, 1951, and stars Alan Ladd as West Point cadet Rockwell “Rocky” Gilman. Just a couple of weeks ago, we heard Alan as the wandering cowboy in Shane. Today, he trades in his six-shooter for a salute in a story about honor, discipline, and growing up at the legendary military academy. We'll also chat about The Screen Directors Playhouse series, how the military was viewed in the post-WWII era, and finish with a look at West Point today. What You Will Hear Alan Ladd stepping out of the saddle and into a cadet's uniform A quick look at The Screen Directors Playhouse and its Hollywood connection A synopsis of Beyond Glory without giving away the whole plot (no spoilers!) Thoughts on how the military was viewed post-WWII versus today A closing chat about West Point and its place in history So, saddle up—well, actually, stand at attention—for this one.

This week on Ron's Amazing Stories we continue our journey into the shadowy world of hard-boiled detectives. Last week we walked the mean streets with Philip Marlowe. This week, it's Part 2 — and we're talking about his rival in grit and wit, Sam Spade. We'll compare Marlowe and Spade, and look at the men behind them — authors Raymond Chandler and Dashiell Hammett. You'll also hear about Howard Duff, who brought Sam Spade to life on the radio. Then it's time for not one but two episodes from The Adventures of Sam Spade. First up, The Death and Company Caper (August 9, 1946). Then, The Wheel of Life Caper (July 11, 1948). What You Will Hear: How Chandler's Philip Marlowe and Hammett's Sam Spade stack up. The backstory of their creators: Hammett the ex-Pinkerton, Chandler the literary craftsman. The wit and voice of Howard Duff as Sam Spade. The Death and Company Caper (1946). The Wheel of Life Caper (1948). A few laughs and wisecracks along the way. Two detectives. Two styles. One unforgettable showdown. Ron's Amazing Stories Is Sponsored by: Audible - You can get a free audiobook and a 30 day free trial at .

Harvey Crane woke up at the edge of a world that shouldn't exist—with a pink sky, triangular trees, and a beautiful woman who could erase his spaceship with a wave of her hand. But when she begs him to wake up and claims to be his wife back on Earth, Harvey must face a terrible question: is this strange paradise his new reality, or is he still trapped in his ship, lost forever in the moment he broke the light barrier?“World Edge” by Jack Egan, originally published in Amazing Stories, November 1962
We deal with a lot of real-life horror stories, and because it's real life, they're often chaotic and cruel. Justice might ultimately be served, but more often than not, the victims are already cold in the ground. If someone is dead-set on killing you, there's a very good chance they'll succeed. In the most satisfying fictional horror stories, of course, there's a survivor, someone who faces the monster or killer and lives to tell the tale, someone who finds deep wells of courage and resilience inside themself and defeats the horrors the world throws at them. And these stories are not only limited to fiction.Sources:Investigation Discovery's Surviving Evil, S3E7, “The Bathtub Killer”A&E's Cold Case Files, S4E24, “Déjà Vu/Secret in the Well”People: https://people.com/bathtub-killer-dateline-nbc-murders-texas-8659842Court papers: https://www.casemine.com/judgement/us/591471c6add7b04934373412https://multco.us/news/susan-walters-who-fended-hitman-provides-guidance-multnomah-county-crime-victims-portalWillamette Week: https://www.wweek.com/news/2016/08/17/a-hit-man-came-to-kill-susan-kuhnhausen-she-survived-he-didnt/Investigation Discovery's Nothing Personal: Murder for Hire, "This Man Brainwashed His Friend into Killing His Pregnant Wife"Oregon Live: https://www.oregonlive.com/politics/2014/06/portlander_who_hired_hitman_to.htmlThe Gift of Fear by Gavin de BeckerFollow us, campers!Patreon (join to get all episodes ad-free, at least a day early, an extra episode a month, and a free sticker!): https://patreon.com/TrueCrimeCampfirehttps://www.truecrimecampfirepod.com/Facebook: True Crime CampfireInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/truecrimecampfire/?hl=enTwitter: @TCCampfire https://twitter.com/TCCampfireEmail: truecrimecampfirepod@gmail.comMERCH! https://true-crime-campfire.myspreadshop.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/true-crime-campfire--4251960/support.

A look at the hard-boiled detective genre and its influence on radio and film. Who Shot Waldo? (1947) starring Van Heflin. The Restless Day (1949) starring Gerald Mohr.

In 2007, Tiffany Rubin, a special education teacher from Queens, New York, was sharing joint custody of her 6-year-old son, Kobe Lee, with her ex-boyfriend Jeffrey Lee. During a scheduled visit, Lee abducted Kobe and secretly took him to South Korea, his native country, without informing Tiffany. Tiffany flew to South Korea with the help of some amazing people with the American Association for Lost Children, after receiving a tip via her MySpace page from a local teacher who had seen Kobe. Tiffany successfully returned Kobe to the U.S., and her story became a powerful example of a mother's determination and love.
