What’s He Doing in There? By Fritz Leiber

An unsuspecting family hosts Earth’s first Martian visitor… only to discover he’s been locked in their upstairs bathroom for hours.

This one comes from Zippoflask, who writes: “A bright light amid the dark miasma of today’s narrated fiction. After searching for a good wholesome and imaginative starring narration, it is wonderful to come upon the beacon that is Scott Miller’s voice and story contributions. I hope he will continue to do this for a long, long time. And I wish both he and his family the best of health!” Thank you, Zippoflask—your review made our day. And now a question for all of you: what would happen if the tens of thousands of listeners who enjoy the show every week took a moment to leave a review on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen? We’re pretty sure it would launch Lost Sci-Fi straight to the moon… maybe even past the stars. During his lifetime, Fritz Leiber produced an astonishing range of unforgettable science fiction—brilliant, bold, and always a step ahead of his peers. You don’t earn six Hugo Awards, three Nebulas, two World Fantasy Awards, two British Fantasy Awards, a shelf of additional honors, and the prestigious SFWA Grand Master title unless you consistently deliver greatness. But Leiber also had a playful side, and some of his most enjoyable work comes from those lighter, offbeat tales. Imagine cracking open the December 1957 issue of Galaxy Science Fiction, flipping to page 69, and suddenly finding yourself in the middle of a very unusual family dilemma. What would you do if you were in their shoes? What’s He Doing in There? By Fritz Leiber… Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Two men cross into a mysterious fourth-dimensional world in search of a rare element that could save their own civilization — or destroy another. But the moment they arrive, they discover they are not the only ones with a hidden agenda… and not everyone plans to return alive. Shadow World by Ray Cummings.
