About this episode
A ruthless metal monster is programmed to destroy—and only one man can stop it. Robot Nemesis by E. E. Doc Smith. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. Edward Elmer Smith, better known as “Doc” Smith, was born in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, back in 1890. He earned a degree in chemical engineering from the University of Idaho in 1914, and later worked as a chemist for the U.S. Department of Agriculture in Washington, D.C. While he had a solid career in science, he’s best remembered today for his pioneering work in science fiction—especially the Skylark series and the Lensman universe. Over the years, he wrote more novels than short stories, helping lay the groundwork for the space operas that followed. We will discover our story on page 72 in Thrilling Wonder Stories Magazine , June 1939, Robot Nemesis by E. E. Doc Smith… Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Marooned on a world within a world, aided by a slim girl and an old warrior, Patrolman Sisko Rolf was fighting his greatest battle—to bring life to dying Mars.
