Description
All your life you’ve crouched, waiting, in the path of impending disaster. That has been your job–what you were trained for. But you can’t help visualizing its arrival–prophesying what form it will take. So how could you be blamed for not recognizing it on arrival? Yellow Streak Hero by Harlan Ellison, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. Special thanks to Craig Hamilton who bought us $25 worth of coffee, “I grew up on Heinlein, Asimov, Clarke, and so many more of the old masters that you bring to life so delightfully!
