Notable examples of these pulp fiction magazines include Argosy, Blue Book Magazine, Adventure, Detective Story Magazine, Weird Tales, and Astounding Stories. If you have a story that you'd like me to perform, please let me know at goldenagefiction@proton.me. Please note that performance of a story is not a condoning, endorsement, or promotion of attitudes, prejudices, biases or opinions therein—particularly of gender and gender roles, ethnicity, disability, and sexuality—that an inhabitant of modern times would find distasteful.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-15T04:19:16.531003+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/golden-age-fiction-7113362"},"episode":{"title":"Native Son, The Last Supper, & Floor of Heaven, by T D Hamm","slug":"native-son-the-last-supper-floor-of-heaven-by-t-d-hamm","published_at":"2026-01-29T22:00:14+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/golden-age-fiction-7113362/native-son-the-last-supper-floor-of-heaven-by-t-d-hamm","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/golden-age-fiction-7113362","url":"https://redcircle.com/shows/43f90e90-8c8e-40b4-9c4c-7d3d9ce904e3/episodes/4831b93c-5f03-482f-9b3a-4b20ede31d7a","audio_url":"https://audio3.redcircle.com/episodes/4831b93c-5f03-482f-9b3a-4b20ede31d7a/stream.mp3","summary":"Tommy hated Earth, knowing his mother might go home to Mars without him.
