The Beast of Boredom by Richard R. Smith - A Martian and Time Travel

The Beast of Boredom wasn't a weapon or a bribe, as he thought. But it was the most ingenious trap of all time! The Beast of Boredom by Richard R. Smith, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. Thanks to Tif Love who bought us a coffee and says, “I listen to your podcast, and absolutely love it. So I just listened to “All the Girls were Nude” and I’m pretty sure this was well-known in some circles by the 80s, because when I was a child I would browse the back of dirty magazines in the grocery store (while moms shopped lol) and they were always advertising X-ray glasses. I found a lot the stories and ads more interesting than the nudity, I was different. Hilariously this story was probably where those ads got their start!” Thanks Tif for buying us a coffee and your interesting comment!
