Aaron and Josh Sarnecky are here for a bonus podcast to discuss Bicentennial Man for its 25th anniversary. Bicentennial Man is a science fiction comedy-drama directed by Chris Columbus and written by Nicholas Kazan. It is based on a novelette by Isaac Asimov, as well as a novel by Asimov and Robert Silverberg. It opened in theaters on December 17, 1999. The film follows Andrew, an immortal robot (Robin Williams) who first serves the Martin family in a futuristic 2005. Mr. Martin (Sam Neill), who determines that Andrew has human emotions and interests, guides his development. Later, Andrew decides to take on more human attributes, including synthetic skin and organs, with the aid of inventor Rupert Burns (Oliver Platt). Other characters include Mrs. Martin (Wendy Crewson), the Martins' daughter Amanda (Hallie Kate Eisenberg, Embeth Davidtz), and Amanda's granddaughter (also Davidtz). Bicentennial Man garnered mixed-to-negative reviews, and it bombed at the box office. Robin Williams was nominated for Worst Actor at the Razzies, though the movie was nominated for Best Makeup at the Oscars. Aaron and Josh talk about the first time they saw Bicentennial Man, its plot, characters, and themes. They also mention its deceptive marketing campaign and how the film stands out in today's movie landscape. For more science fiction, you can listen to Aaron and Josh's Twilight Zone podcast with guest Randy Allain. Bicentennial Man is available on Prime Video

Romain Lucazeau nous présente Vallée du Carnage, le meilleur roman de science-fiction française de cette rentrée 2025 disponibe aux éditions du Seuil dans la nouvelle collection Verso ! Vallée du Carnage Après avoir écrit du space opera avec Latium, flirté avec la hard science et le conte philosophique avec La Nuit du Faune, Romain Lucazeau revient ! Porté par les éditions du Seuil et la nouvelle collection Verso, l'ancien membre de la Red Team Défense présente Vallée du Carnage. Le lecteur suit une tragédie antique mettant en scène la guerre sans fin entre Carthage et le Royaume de Perse. Drone, missile, le texte et d'autres armes contemporaines se mêle dans un monde antique qui n'a bougé depuis des siècles. Cette guerre uchronique est une parabole sur la banalité du mal et sur la violence en chacun de nous. Romain Lucazeau, qui assume les références à Pierre Pierre Guyota, Robert Silverberg, offre un troisième roman terriblement puissant. Vallée du Carnage est notre coup de cœur de cette rentrée 2025 en science-fiction francophone.Hébergé par Ausha. Visitez ausha.co/politique-de-confidentialite pour plus d'informations.

It wasn't that Kroll enjoyed watching the traitors broken in body and spirit. But why did they keep insisting they were innocent before—The Inquisitor. By Robert Silverberg, that's next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.Science Fiction Grand Master Robert Silverberg has been on the podcast many times with The Mystery of Deneb IV, Never Trust a Thief, Planet of the Angry Giants, Monsters that Once Were Men and several others. He returns today with a short story from December 1956 that appeared in Imagination Stories of Science and Fantasy. We often hear from listeners who say they don't understand why authors use pen names. This issue is a great example. Robert Silverberg actually wrote three stories that appeared in this issue. No magazine editor wanted one author to appear multiple times in a single magazine, readers might not like it. So the solution was simple, use a different name, or in this case names. The Alien Dies at Dawn, which you will hear on the podcast in the not too distant future, was credited to Alexander Blade but was written by Silverberg, as was Lair of the Dragonbird. On page 106 of the December 1956 of Imagination Stories of Science and Fantasy we will find today's story, The Inquisitor By Robert Silverberg…Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Orthedrin, maxiton and glutamic acid—they were the prescription that made him king of his world!

Garrett was among the most prolific science fiction authors during the 1950s and 1960s with most of his more than 180 short stories during that time. He wrote under a long list of pen names which includes David Gordon, Blake MacKenzie, Seaton McKettrig, Clyde Mitchell, Mark Phillips, Robert Randall, Leonard G. Spencer, S. M. Tenneshaw and Gerald Vance. He was good friends with Robert Silverberg and the two of them wrote many short sci-fi stories together. In fact, this may not actually be Randall Garrett's debut.

The stories were voted on by the members of the new (at the time in the late 60s) organization Science Fiction Writers of America. In this series, I will be joined by a panel of different guests to break down these stories and talk about the authors in the book. In this episode, I am joined by two returning guests. First up is the Hugo award-winning fan writer Cora Buhlert who knows her Science Fiction.

Robert Silverberg, born in Brooklyn, New York, on January 15, 1935, is a highly esteemed author known for his significant contributions to the world of speculative fiction. With a career spanning several decades, Silverberg's journey into the literary world began in his early teenage years when he started submitting stories to science fiction magazines. He graduated from Columbia University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in English Literature in 1956, all while crafting stories that would earn him recognition as the "best new writer" with his first Hugo Award that same year. Notably, Silverberg's prolific output during the 1950s and 1960s, with an average of five published stories per month, established him as a prominent figure in the genre.However, in the late 1950s, Silverberg diversified his writing efforts to other genres due to changes in the science fiction market. This period saw him prolifically producing works under various pseudonyms, including a substantial collection of erotic novels published as "Don Elliott." His transition to exploring more literary themes began in the 1960s, a shift marked by his association with the "New Wave" movement and a renewed focus on character development and social depth. Later in his life, after experiencing personal challenges, he retired from writing in 1975 but returned with renewed vigor in 1980 with the acclaimed "Lord Valentine's Castle." In 2005, he received the prestigious title of SFWA Grand Master from the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America, cementing his legacy in the genre.During this period, Silverberg produced a string of critically acclaimed novels, including "To Open the Sky," "Downward to the Earth," "To Live Again," "The World Inside," and "Dying Inside." These works showcased his ability to merge profound themes with gripping narratives and garnered him multiple Hugo and Nebula Award nominations and wins. His return to writing in 1980 with "Lord Valentine's Castle" marked the beginning of the beloved Majipoor series, known for its intricate world-building and rich character development.New Patreon RequestBuzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!

Okay maybe I went a bit too far looking for words that started with S. So sorry. In the early 1950s, Robert Silverberg was a young science fiction fan who was eager to break into the field as a writer. He started submitting stories to various magazines but was repeatedly rejected.Undeterred, Silverberg wrote a story called "Gorgon Planet" and it appeared in “Nebula”, Scotland's first science fiction magazine under the name Bob Silverberg in 1954. It was the first of more than 600 paid short stories.As was the case with many sci-fi stories back then, "Gorgon Planet" appeared again. It was published in “Super-Science Fiction” magazine 4 ½ years later with the title “The Fight With The Gorgon.” Same story, different title.Silverberg's career took off in 1956 when he sold more than 50 short stories.Today's story comes from Super-Science Fiction Magazine in August 1959. The story is credited to one of Silverberg's pen names, Eric Rodman.

Moscas es un relato de terror —dentro de un marco más relacionado a la ciencia ficción— del escritor norteamericano Robert Silverberg (1935— ), publicado en la antología de 1967: Visiones peligrosas. Moscas, probablemente entre los mejores cuentos de Robert Silverberg, relata la historia de un astronauta que comete actos horrorosos contra sus seres queridos, pero no como producto de la locura o una maldad intrínseca, sino debido a la influencia nefasta de inteligencias extraterrestres que desean estudiar los efectos de la angustia producidos por tales actos abominables. Para muchos, Moscas de Robert Silverberg se inscribe en el relato de vampiros, aunque mejor sería situarlo dentro del vampirismo en términos más amplios; en este caso, a través de criaturas que no se alimentan de la sangre de sus víctimas, sino de algo mucho peor.

Robert Silverberg is an accomplished author, prolific, award winning, you may have noticed I said is, not was, because unlike all the authors we've featured so far on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast he's still with us. Born in 1935, Silverberg has won the Hugo and Nebula awards many times, was named to the science fiction hall of fame in 1999, and in 2004 was designated as a Grand Master by the Science Fiction Writers of America. It's been said that when you include introductions, reviews and editorials to his vast number of novels and short stories it would total more than 1,200.At last report the 87-year-old Silverberg and his wife Karen live in the San Francisco bay area. The magazine where our story originates originally credited Randall Garrett for Six Frightened Men, perhaps because Robert Silverberg contributed another story to this issue, Woman's World. From Imagination Stories of Science and Fantasy in June 1957 turn with me to page 76 for Six Frightened Men by Robert Silverberg…Next week on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast… legendary science fiction author Philip K.
