Josh Wigler (@roundhoward) and Mike Bloom (@AMikeBloomType) are in a maze of mini-monsters as they explore "Cabin Fever."

In "Cabin Fever," John Locke wanders through the jungle on a collision course with destiny. Hurley and Ben share candy. The freighter folk get lit. Well, not that lit, but they are on their way. It's a heavy philosophical conversation this week on the podcast as Josh and Mike look at John Locke's life.

About Down the Hatch ...

LOST: Down the Hatch is a full-tilt spoiler-filled rewatch of LOST. Every week, Josh and Mike break down an episode of LOST with the benefit of knowing the series' full trajectory, using the following structure as a guide:

• We Go "Fourth" - Josh and Mike begin each podcast with a deep-dive into the story both in front of and behind the camera, and they do so with the assistance of eight sound clips from each episode.

• The Others - Josh and Mike answer questions sent their way by listeners through the official e-mail address: [email protected]

• 23 Points - Each week, Josh and Mike hand out points for the best and worst characters of the episode in question, in a foolhardy attempt to determine the most and least valuable players in the LOST pantheon.

• 4.2 Stars - Josh and Mike rank every episode of LOST, by rating them all on a scale from 0 - 4.2. Josh and Mike offer their individual scores, listeners' scores will be averaged as a third data point, then the three points combine as the podcast's official score on each episode.
