He has the power to fix what everyone else must endure, yet every use of that power risks ending the quiet life he has built. When the cost of doing nothing becomes personal, an old man must decide how much disobedience he can live with. Citizen Jell by Michael Shaara. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.As we approach the podcast’s fourth anniversary, I find myself overwhelmed with gratitude and reflection. It’s impossible not to think about the countless ways you have shaped this journey—and my life along with it. There’s no way I can ever fully express how thankful I am.Years ago, someone requested Orphans of the Void by Michael Shaara. I wish I knew your name, because I would thank you personally, again and again. That single request opened a door for me. Through it, I discovered Michael Shaara’s writing, fell deeply in love with his voice, and now—because of you—we’re sharing yet another one of his stories. This moment, this episode, simply wouldn’t exist without that spark you lit.Every request you’ve sent, every five-star rating, every thoughtful review—each one has mattered. Each one has helped carry this podcast forward. You’ve supported it, believed in it, and given it life in ways you may never fully realize.From the bottom of my heart, thank you for being part of this story.Published in the pages of Galaxy Science Fiction magazine in August 1959 on page 54, Citizen Jell by Michael Shaara.…Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, In a future that prizes engineered clarity and measurable usefulness, one man lives with a body and mind that refuse to fit. When the reason for his difference finally becomes clear, a single choice determines whether his life was wasted—or perfectly timed.
