Author Clifford D Simak sci fi short story – Message From Mars

Simak, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, with at least one lost vintage sci-fi short story in every episode.

Oooohhhh!!!!!
I’m first to comment…..typical,I can’t think what to say. Great reading as usual. Graham
9:30am Wednesday (I'm a little late). I am excited about this September story marathon!
Wow on the Sept schedule. Thanks in advance!
Thanks! I don't think I've read this one before, and I've read a LOT of Simak! (So far I'm only up to Vol 4 of the new Complete Short Fiction, though.) Either it's just a story that lends itself well to reading, or you did a great job–or both!
Simple, dated, fun. Druids or vegetarians may like the Martians.
I have to wonder if this is Simak’s tip-of-the-cap homage to Stanley G Weinbaum? I’m from Wisconsin, really want to organize a roadside shrine for Simak. Wonderful work you’re doing!!
Howdy from Albuquerque, Scott. Sure is a fine audio channel: You're out n' out one of the best narrators I've ever come across.
Off the point here: I've been wondering – while knowing your base being Costa Rica – how in honesty do you find the local attitudes there? That is to say, in terms of American Ex-Pat.'s? Sure is a beautiful country, from what I gather.
Good onya for your continued work! Dare say you'd be #1 in Albuquerque; #1 with me at any rate.
