Episode Summary:In this episode, we sit down with Scott Miller—broadcaster, storyteller, and creator of The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, a show heard in more than 190 countries and ranked #1 in 33 of them. Scott opens up about his extraordinary life story: getting his start in radio at 16, becoming Iowa’s youngest weekday TV sports anchor, surviving a devastating divorce, enduring the loss of his beloved wife just 113 days after their wedding, and nearly giving up on life entirely.
Instead of surrendering to tragedy, Scott rebuilt his world. He found new love, moved to Costa Rica, and launched a science-fiction podcast that has now surpassed three million listens and revived dozens of classic vintage sci-fi stories for a global audience.
This conversation explores resilience, reinvention, the healing power of storytelling, and the unexpected ways life gives us second—and third—chances.
