You'll learn why indoor CO2 can quietly drag down cognition (especially in schools, offices, and hotels), why mouth breathing can spiral into snoring, fatigue, and anxious “air hunger,” and how nasal breathing supports calmer nervous systems and better performance.

A man becomes convinced that time itself is counting him down, and every decision suddenly feels fatal.

The magazine survived exactly three more issues before doing the most on-brand thing possible—disappearing into the cosmos and never coming back.From the debut issue of Cosmos on page 121, The Big Tick by Ross Rocklynne…Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, A lone envoy risks everything to stop a quiet expansion that could ignite a catastrophic war.

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.

A lone explorer confronts a force that fractures identity, memory, and destiny itself. In a place where time refuses to behave, survival depends on facing what you were, what you are, and what you may yet become. Time Trap by Frank Belknap Long. That's next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.Discovered another 5 star rating and review today on Audible from Laura Van Wormer. “Scott Miller's narration of old science fiction short stories is just wonderful. Of course, so is the material! Everyone from Ray Bradbury to HG Wells to Lovecraft to Asimov to Jack London and on and on... But there are also the one-timer sci-fi short-story writers that are relatively unknown and Miller provides a little background on them all. Extremely well done. Bravo, Scott Miller!”Thank you for that awesome review Laura. We don't care where you listen, we're just glad you're here and if you want to give give us a 5 star review, if you think we deserve it, we would appreciate it.This is a different kind of time travel story.

They took years to build the rocket and minutes to launch it, sending two ordinary men where others had vanished forever. Officially, it was a simple trip around the moon. Unofficially, it was a gamble born of desperation, pride, and a belief that ignorance might succeed where genius had failed. They Reached For The Moon by William Oberfield. That's next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.Before the Moon became a destination, it was only a dream—distant, untouchable, and forever beyond reach. Today, it's easy to forget what an impossible idea space travel once was, no human would even orbit the earth for another 10 years after this story was written. No human being had ever seen the far side of the Moon until Apollo 8 circled it in December of 1968. For centuries, the Moon belonged to poets and storytellers—not astronauts.Seventeen years earlier, in 1951, William Oberfield dared to imagine what had never been done. He wrote this story at a time when rockets were crude, computers barely existed, and spaceflight was a lot closer to fantasy than engineering. Yet Oberfield looked up and saw not mystery alone, but possibility.Only four of William Oberfield's stories were published, this was the last of them. From the November 1951 issue of Imagination Stories of Science and Fantasy on page 80, They Reached For The Moon by William Oberfield…Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Far from help and beyond certainty, a returning astronaut confronts a problem that logic cannot solve.

You'll find the signup link in the description and on lostscifi.com.Newsletter - https://lostscifi.com/freeToday on the podcast, we welcome a true original making his debut — Philip José Farmer.Farmer was born on January 26, 1918, in North Terre Haute, Indiana, and his love of science fiction started early. Like so many writers of his generation, he fell hard for the pulp magazines as a kid, discovering worlds that were stranger, bolder, and more imaginative than anything around him. Over his career, Farmer wrote almost 60 novels and over 100 short stories, constantly pushing the boundaries of what science fiction could talk about — from religion and sexuality to identity and mythology. He won multiple Hugo Awards, including one for his groundbreaking novel To Your Scattered Bodies Go, and later received the Grand Master Award from the Science Fiction Writers of America.Philip José Farmer was hugely influential because he refused to play it safe. He expanded the emotional and intellectual range of science fiction — and today, we're finally welcoming his voice to the Lost Sci-Fi universe with a story that first appeared in Fantastic Universe magazine in October 1954. Turn to page 69, The Wounded by Philip José Farmer…Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, A down-on-his-luck private detective takes the strangest case of his life when an alien asks him to track down his missing wife.

In another of our episodes recorded at the CEPR Paris Symposium, we ask: When Gen AI can do an undergraduate's problem set in seconds, how should teaching, and the syllabus, respond? Who better to answer this than Wendy Carlin of UCL and CEPR? Wendy – who has recently become Dame Wendy – was at the symposium to talk about her project to change economics teaching through the CORE Project, which more than 500 institutions use to teach introductory economics in a way that flips the standard textbook treatment on it head.Recently Wendy and CORE have been working to harness the power of AI to help students apply their knowledge in unfamiliar settings, to reason and discriminate, to make AI into what she calls “A cognitive sparring partner”. She tells Tim Phillips what that means for the Economics Major, and why that might create economics graduates with the skills that employers value. Try CORE, it's free: https://core-econ.org

Avoiding weight gain is just so difficult sometimes, isn't it? It's not enough to eat only healthy foods, you also have to combine those healthy foods in the right way.  That's because when we eat different types of foods together, they interact with each other in our digestive system. Depending on their characteristics, some foods get digested faster than others. What can happen to our bodies if we combine the 'wrong' foods? And which are the worst combinations? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

Eat or Be Eaten by Dr Rick Bein Rickbein.com The issue of food can be interpreted in two ways. As a geographical agriculturist, I have focused on food production around the world, but also on being faced with predatory action. These stories relate such events in my life. Some are humorous and some are educational. my Peace Corps experience provided the spark that led to this series of adventures and observations. Farming strategies vary tremendously around the world, from my home farm in Colorado to those in Brazil, Sudan, Papua New Guinea, Mozambique. The picture depicts a Sudanese feast, where various food items are laid on an outstretched tablecloth on the ground to serve men dressed in formal attire. Only the men are eating and when they are sated the women come to eat what is left over. Notice the only the right hands are touching the food. The left hand is considered foul and would contaminate the food.

In 1961, 23-year-old Michael Rockefeller – heir to one of America's wealthiest families and son of future Vice President Nelson Rockefeller – disappeared without a trace in the remote swamps of Dutch New Guinea (now West Papua). While collecting primitive art from the Asmat people, his boat capsized in treacherous waters. He tied gas cans to his body and swam toward shore, famously saying, "I think I can make it."He was never seen again.For decades, the official story was drowning. But persistent rumors – backed by journalist investigations, eyewitness accounts from Asmat villagers, and books like Carl Hoffman's Savage Harvest – point to a far darker fate: ritual killing and cannibalism as revenge in a culture built around headhunting and sacred violence.In this episode, we dive deep into the mystery: the colonial clashes that set the stage, the Asmat's complex worldview, the exhaustive searches, cover-up allegations, and the chilling evidence that Michael may have been speared, beheaded, and consumed in a ceremonial act.Was it tragedy, murder, or something lost in cultural collision? Join me for this unfiltered exploration of one of history's most haunting unsolved disappearances.▶️ *[WORK WITH ME]* https://RobbJarrett.net▶️ *FREE* Personal Brand Starter Kit :: https://www.medialabb.net/brandkit*[SUBSCRIPTIONS I RECOMMEND]*ABOBE CREATIVE SOFTWARE - VIDIQ (AI Creation and SEO) - https://vidiq.com/robbjarrett Motion Array (Assets) - Envato (Assets) - OPENART (AI Creation Tools)BEACONS: https://beacons.ai/signup?c=robbjarrett*[PRODUCTS I RECOMMEND]*SM7B Microphone - https://amzn.to/47AuKREMV7+ Microphone - https://amzn.to/3V7LRmABLUE YETI Microphone - https://amzn.to/3V7LRmAOBSBOT Webcam - https://amzn.to/4mcWhMFDJI Action Cam - https://amzn.to/3V44gk7DJI OSMO Gimbal - https://amzn.to/3V44gk7NEEWER Lights - https://amzn.to/4pfvMJe

A young man plots a quiet inheritance in a decaying waterfront mansion haunted by whispers, rituals, and an uncle who knows far too much. When murder collides with forbidden knowledge, the price of impatience becomes far more than death. The Grip of Death by Robert Bloch. That's next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.Another newsletter will be sent out in a few hours, free sci-fi and other fun stuff straight to your inbox every week. There is a link in the description and on LostSciFi.comNewsletter - https://lostscifi.com/free/How did we release more than 460 episodes without narrating a story by Robert Bloch? That oversight ends today. Born in Chicago in 1917, Bloch is best remembered for Psycho, the novel that became Alfred Hitchcock's iconic film—but that was only one chapter in a remarkable career.Bloch wrote more than 30 novels and hundreds of short stories, publishing his first tale at just 17. His love of the strange began early: at age ten, when his aunt offered to buy him any magazine he wanted, he chose the August 1927 issue of Weird Tales. Years later, speaking at the First World Fantasy Convention in 1975, Bloch recalled waking early on release day and sprinting to a tobacco-and-magazine shop to buy the latest issue—sometimes sneaking it home under his coat if the cover was especially scandalous.Today's story didn't appear in Weird Tales, but it is unquestionably a weird tale.

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.

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.
