Lost at Random

It's the season 3 opener, and that would've been super disorienting if we hadn't already seen this from Juliet's PoV in *our* opener! Jack, Sawyer, and Kate are separated and imprisoned, while the flashbacks show Jack is the worst ex and needs to learn to chill.

Episode beverage: Townshend's Tea Company Sinus Soother

It's the second week of the show after the two-part pilot, so everyone's learning each other's names... except for the screaming, dying man on the beach, and he mostly wants to choke Kate. There's apparently a weird radio signal, but this is mostly put aside so we can focus on Kate's past, kind of. Locke carves a literal dogwhistle.

Episode beverage: Great Divide Strawberry Rhubarb

It's a midseason finale I guess because we start off with CHAOS of missing people, cut in with Jack's flashbacks of juggling familial duty with lawful good decision making. Locke finds his hatch. The episode title is great, but where's the cowboy bit?

Episode beverage: Wildcraft's Wild Rose Cider

It's Danielle's first season 2 episode, where we meet Rose and Bernard, and where Bernard won't stop trying to *do something*. Letty from Fast and Furious makes an appearance keeping an eye on Ben/Henry, and Jack is really just a 15 year old boy who needs to learn how to process his feelings.

Episode beverage: Stone Farking w00t Stout 2018

In our first season 1 episode, new-to-Danielle character Boone spends some quality time with Locke, kind of, as he reflects on his relationship with his sister Shannon.

Desmond is on a boat and tries to find people. Danielle meets another plane Asian (Miles) as the island time somehow becomes... island time travel. Locke seems to think conversation threads transcend decades. Perplexing.

We end up in season 3 again for 304 "Every Man For Himself", in which the mystery boxes for some of what 316 revealed are introduced (who do the x-rays with the tumor belong to? why does Jack trust Juliet?). Danielle is introduced to Contemplative Beard Man who seems unusually interested in Claire. Ben threatens a bunny. Danielle fails to capture Sawyer's accent.

Episode beverage: De Garde Brewing's The Little Peach 2018

RNG throws us for a loop by queuing up 614 "The Candidate". Danielle meets Locke, mourns the loss of several characters, and struggles to figure out when not!island scenes take place. Syl is amused.

Episode beverage: Oskar Blues Barrel Aged Ten Fidy 2016

We begin our journey of watching LOST randomly by starting with 316: "One of Us". Danielle thinks this episode feels fairly pilot-like. We're still new at recording, so please excuse the shared mike!
