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. The Hairy Ones by Basil Wells. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

Basil Wells makes his debut on the podcast today. Born in 1912 in Springboro, Pennsylvania, Wells wrote science fiction, fantasy westerns and detective stories sometimes using the pseudonym Gene Ellerman. His first short story, Rebirth of Man was published in 1940 in Super Science Stories.

All told he wrote more than 60 short stories in a career that spanned six decades. Today’s title came early in his career. Published in the Winter 1944 issue of Planet Stories magazine, we will find this hairy story on page 76, The Hairy Ones by Basil Wells…

Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Privileged we are to bring you this historic story—one which will warm the manly hearts of the legion of devoted admirers of that venerable fantasist, Arthur Wright Beemis. The Yes Men of Venus by Ron Goulart.
