As eagle-eyed remote viewers of the program are keenly aware, that Poolhouse has a tendency to reference TV’s LOST (2004-2010). He has compared his little gang of internet misfits and other assorted bandits to the survivors of Oceanic Flight 815, the fictional plane in the show.

Poolhouse literally seems to thinks he’s living it? But have we made it to the Island…or are we still on the flight??

Joined by intrepid anon and internet dad (NOT a woman!), and LOST super-fan Dusty Poolhouse does what he does best–takes the audience on a journey with the purpose of getting LOST!

You don’t have to be a LOST megafan like PH and Dusty–who, according to legend, posts only in accordance with the mystical LOST numbers–or even a viewer of the show to enjoy this ep. As Dusty and Poolhouse discuss, the lessons from LOST are universal, and particularly appropriate to these strange times in which we find ourselves.

Is LOST relevant? What can it tell us about our present moment? Is LOST a flat earth program? And what about that ending?

Plus, Poolhouse gets to the bottom of Dusty’s @ and an unexpected calamity leads to an impromptu discussion about the true physicality of our cosmos. Take your seat, your captains here at Backklash Airways cordially welcome you aboard the most important flight of your lives. Join us while GET LOST…
