Featured Story – Ask A Foolish Question

Our story this week is a mind-bender, unlike anything we have ever had on the show. When I heard it I was left with so many questions that I was left with …what does it all mean? Man has always wanted to have all of the answers, now he finds a machine that can answer them. But, does he know the right question? The story is titled Ask a Foolish Question and it was written by Robert Sheckley. It first appeared in the pulp mag, Science Fiction Stories in 1953.

Our featured story for this week is The Eternal Wall. It first appeared in the pages of Amazing Stories Magazine in November of 1942. It received some critical acclaim and opened with this tagline:

It was written by Raymond Z. Gallun and is read for us by Greg Margarite.
