We have some pretty solid episodes to discuss this week, but we have to talk about how this love triangle (square?) between Jack, Kate, and Sawyer (and Juliet, I guess) is really dragging down the show.

Welcome back to the only podcast on the internet that talks about a TV show. We're gonna talk about Lost this week, but first we HAVE to discuss just what the heck is on Ben's head? A hat? Are you kidding me? Will does some independent sleuthing and uncovers a new secret code that's guaranteed to blow this whole thing wide open (or maybe not so much). The boys argue about who would make the best leader of the survivors in Jack's absence. Chapters 0:00 - Intro 0:45 - What's on Ben's head? 4:13 - ...
