Philip K Dick Audiobook Short Story: Human Is Short Sci Fi Story From the 1950s 🎧

[@dgwachtel]

A PKD fan here, Thank you. That was a very touching story. I'm sending a link to a friend and his wife who have gone through some harrowing medical difficulties lately. I think it will brighten their day. Just stumbled across your channel - new subscriber! Again, Thanks for your efforts! -dave

[@VintageSciFiAudiobooks]

Thanks Dave! I'm also a huge fan of PKD. Love narrating his stories and this is one of my favorites. Thanks for watching/listening and sharing the PKD goodness with others.

[@dgwachtel]

@@VintageSciFiAudiobooks No, thank you! Great job reading the material! I'm looking forward to catching up on your catalog. Too bad PKD didn't get the accolades or the income he deserved during his lifetime. Regards -dave

[@VintageSciFiAudiobooks]

@dgwachtel I agree with you, it's very sad that Philip K. Dick didn't receive the recognition he deserved during his lifetime. He was extremely talented. I just narrated two of his books in 24 hours. Human Is, which you've heard and Meddler. Every short story he wrote instantly becomes one of my favorites. He was that good. Again, thank you for listening. I cannot say thank you enough because I truly love what I do!!

[@VintageSciFiAudiobooks]

@Max Power thanks for listening and know that as long as I'm alive, which will hopefully be for many more years, you can count on at least one vintage sci-fi story every week!

[@tuesgirlw]

One of the best stories . Second time I've listened. Thank you

[@VintageSciFiAudiobooks]

@tuesgirlw I LOVED narrating Human Is and I am happy to hear you liked it so much you've listened to it twice. That is a huge compliment. Thanks for listening!!

[@goodwaterhikes]

Good one 😎👍

[@stevecharman8420]

Easy to see why Philip K Dick is considered one of the greats of Sci Fi writing.

[@VintageSciFiAudiobooks]

Yes it is. A lot more PKD on the way including a story I just recorded yesterday that has become one of my favorite sci-fi stories of all time. Thanks for listening!!

[@darrenseder5923]

This story is very thought provoking on many angles. This story and "Love as scripted" by Jinji Ito have that same effect.

[@james.vanmaanenberg]

Steadily listening my way through all of these since discovering the channel.

[@VintageSciFiAudiobooks]

@James van Maanenberg thanks for listening!

[@Da_unknownBrother]

My new favorite channel!

[@VintageSciFiAudiobooks]

Thank you! I'm glad you like it. We'll keep the vintage sci-fi coming, and your comments are always welcome.

[@elizdonovan9219]

Brilliant story. Have listened to it before but like it so much that I listen again. I wish ... Thank you. ☘️🌝🌲

[@VintageSciFiAudiobooks]

Thanks for listening!! And thanks for your comment too!

[@helius2011]

Beautiful story!

[@VintageSciFiAudiobooks]

I think so too! I love narrating stories by Philip K. Dick. Two more of his stories on the way in a few weeks. Glad you liked it.

[@geofffriend4161]

Thanks for the stories and the telling

[@VintageSciFiAudiobooks]

Thank you for listening! Your comments is greatly appreciated.

[@ufosrus]

Nice ending. I knew Jill was going to keep the nice alien.

[@VintageSciFiAudiobooks]

@jacqueline schael it seemed like an easy choice. Thanks for listening!

[@TheGreenestG]

Thank you for all these! I'm a huge PKD fan, and have listened to most of his stories (and read his main books in addition). Could you possibly read his beautiful, poignant "Explorers We"? Even if not, thank you so much, again, for doing these!!!

[@VintageSciFiAudiobooks]

@TheGreenestG I am glad you found us and if you haven't already I hope you'll subscribe so you never miss any of our vintage sci-fi stories. All the stories we narrate are in the public domain and I don't believe "Explorers We" is in the public domain. However, I'll see what I can find out. Thanks for listening!!

[@SnakeAndTurtleQigong]

Thanks

[@VintageSciFiAudiobooks]

@SnakeAndTurtleQigong Thank YOU for listening!!

[@veronicaconway9362]

Loved this one, pity all bad men can't be changed like that, I do like a happy ending.

[@VintageSciFiAudiobooks]

@Veronica Conway I love it when stories have a happy ending. I guess I'm an old softie.

[@BenjiFriedman]

Like an alternate version of Blade Runner! Great story, thanks for recording!

[@VintageSciFiAudiobooks]

Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for listening!

[@annikat6793]

Loved the story! Am subscribing.

[@VintageSciFiAudiobooks]

Thanks! As soon as I read this story I knew I had to narrate it. Thanks for subscribing and I hope you enjoy all the stories we do as much as this one.

[@annikat6793]

@@VintageSciFiAudiobooks Loved the ending lol

[@VintageSciFiAudiobooks]

@Annikat me too! I remember the first time I read it being surprised. Love Philip K. Dick and I've narrated more of his stories so far than anybody else.

[@flesheater6676]

I'm a huge Dickhead. We Can Remember It Wholesale and Second Variety are his two greatest stories.

[@VintageSciFiAudiobooks]

If you're requesting those two stories here's what's happening, We Can Remember It Wholesale is not in the public domain which means we cannot legally record it and make it available for sale or for free. We haven't narrated Second Variety yet, but it'll probably be around 2 hours when we do. When we add the other elements to it that would probably push the podcast over 2 hours. So far, the longest episode has been 1 hour 11 minutes. Will people listen if we do a 2 hour podcast? You could have simply been making a comment and not a request, if so, please disregard everything else I've said lol!!

[@GGEverybody]

If the word Rexorian didn't remind me of lizzard people so much, I'd say the world needs more Rexorians. .. Don't mean to sound prejudice. And, actually, if lizzard people were as nice one might be inclined to say the same. Just don't take my mind or body. I promise I won't be toxic.

[@VintageSciFiAudiobooks]

@GGEverybody Thanks for commenting and thanks for listening!!

[@donaldwhittaker7987]

Didn't the old outer limits do this?

[@VintageSciFiAudiobooks]

@donaldwhittaker7987 not that I am aware of. However it appeared in Season 1 Episode 6 of a TV show called Electric Dreams. The Episode aired Jan 12th, 2018 on Amazon Prime. Thanks for listening!!
