LOST Podcast: The Transmission

This episode of "The Transmission" follows the Jan. 25 episode, "Fire + Water." Charlie grapples with surreal dreams that suggest that Aaron is in danger, while the rest of the camp begins to doubt him. In flashback, we learn how Charlie's musical dreams died in the wake of his brother's betrayal. Sawyer helps Hurley make a love connection with Libby, Kate gets closer to Sawyer, and Ana Lucia and Jack share a moment.

The episode of "The Transmission" follows the Jan. 18 episode, "The Hunting Party." Jack, Locke and Sawyer pursue a determined Michael after he heads into the jungle toward the dreaded "Others" in search of Walt. Meanwhile, Sun has a surprising reaction to Jin's desire to join the search party, and Hurley and Charlie commiserate over the age-old conundrum of "what women want." Sawyer's alias is challenged, Alvar Hanso is quoted, and Jack prepares to go to war. Alex? Zeke? Geronimo Jackson? Lots of names, lots of possibilities.

Our first new episode of 2006, and it's a great one. Mr. Eko interrogates Charlie about the Virgin Mary statue, Claire begins to lose faith in Charlie when she discovers his secret, and Jack is an interested observer when Kate gives the recovering Sawyer a much-needed haircut. Stick around for some cast sightings, filming location news, and a quick chat with Walt.

Happy New Year! At long last, our third "hiatuscast," a special edition of "The Transmission" for the winter break. In this show, we check out just a few of the great websites out there devoted to "Lost." Discussion boards, official sites, great resources, and finally, a unique tour of the "Lost" podcasting community. We chat about one last theory, and of course share a few interesting updates on upcoming episodes in the "Forward Cabin." Finally, in our LostLine segment, we've got half an hour of great stuff, from season two reviews, to theories and responses to our "Theorycast," and much more. We're only a few days away from our next new episode, but the last stretch of "Lost" withdrawal is sometimes the hardest. Thanks for listening.

This special edition of "The Transmission" explores some of the many, many theories you've come up with to explain what's happening on the island. We discuss a few, and then include over 40 minutes of bonus listener comments. On top of that, we even cover some "Lost" goodies you might consider as last-minute Christmas gifts. And that's not all! For spoilerfreaks, we've got a great advance look at Mr. Eko's upcoming flashback. This is our longest episode yet, and hopefully one that can help you get a good "Lost" fix as we wait another three weeks for the next new episode.

This special edition of "The Transmission" takes a second look at "What Kate Did," ways to get your "Lost" fix during the hiatus, touches on production news... and "Lost" castmembers in the news. Of course, over 20 minutes of LostLine calls serve as the dessert at the end of this modest serving of our show.

This edition of "The Transmission" follows the Nov. 30 episode, "What Kate Did." Kate's original crime is revealed, Shannon is laid to rest, Mr. Eko gives Locke a new piece of the "Orientation" puzzle, and Michael makes contact on the computer.

This edition of "The Transmission" follows the Nov. 23 episode, "Collision." Ana Lucia must face Sayid over killing Shannon, Jack and Locke seek answers from Mr. Eko, and finally our survivors are reunited.

This edition of "The Transmission" follows the Nov. 16 episode, "The Other 48 Days." We follow the harrowing experience of Ana Lucia's group from the moment the tail section hits the water to the shocking first encounter with our original group of survivors. Mr. Eko goes silent but then speaks, Ana Lucia toughens up but breaks down, Bernard makes contact but only with Boone, and an Other is discovered only after another is falsely accused.

This edition of "The Transmission" follows the Nov. 9 episode, "Abandoned." Sawyer's wounds become life threatening as Ana Lucia and her group make their way toward the other survivors. Shannon and Sayid spend some quality time together, only to have their bliss shattered by a ghostly vision of Walt. We learn a little bit more about Shannon's life, while we are simultaneously confronted by her death.
