Lostaholics reWatch of ABC's TV show, LOST. The inaugural reWatch podcast hosted by Lostaholics and Nancy Drew along with her old crew from the Black Rock complete with LostLindsey and special guest Matt, from Keys to Lost and the Sgt Draini.
This week we revisit Dead is Dead, Some like it Hoth and The Variable.
Collectively we revisit these episodes with end-of-season-5-eyes to see if there is any new meaning to be found in these earlier episodes and fully prepare us for Season 6!.
Be sure and bookmark our TalkShoe page and be ready for the first Initial Reactions show. Our hugely popular community podcast that goes live shortly after each episode airs on the East Coast.

FIRST COMMENT!! ;)
Thanks for having me on last night guys. Sorry I had to bail. I know this is nitpicky probably, but a thought occured to me this morning about the multiple docks (not docs LOL). There may very well be multiple docks however when Ben and Locke arrive, there is an outrigger already at that same dock (presumably Frank and Sun's)isn't there? That would lead me to believe to me that the doc's used by both groups (in this case) are the same. So the difference of travel time remains an issue. (Well sort of - not like its some big mythology question - at least not to me)
Oh and remind me to never ever ever use the words dock and doc in the same comment again. Muscle memory takes over (doc's=docks) - sorry! :) - Matt
On the whole Jacob naming business. I don't know why Richard doesn't go to Jacob for verification if Ben/Widmore or Locke says that it was a request from Jacob. It's interesting in the finale that Richard doesn't go to talk to Jacob either, but sends UnLocke & Ben in. Is Richard forbidden to see Jacob? We know Jacob made Richard the way he is, but we don't know if Richard ever talks to Jacob ever since the ability of immortality was given to him.
Also Nancy Drew in a previous comment of a different episode commented about a doco she watched which stated something about travelling at the speed of light reduces aging. Is she suggesting Richard is travelling throughout time and thus seems ageless. We've never really seen anything to point out anything special about Richard apart from the immortal aspect.
The Alex discussion made me think about how Charlie's life was prolonged by Desmond's intervention. We don't know if Ben has the ability to have memory flashed like Desmond, it's possible the Temple could have given him this ability. Since we know he's a great manipulator, he must know events before they happen. So he was able to prolong Alex's life to an extent, he even admits to her that she didn't want her with Karl because he didn't want her to get pregnant, and this would have caused inevitable death, but course correction got the better of her in the end.
I wonder if the statement "you have no idea, what I've gone through to be here" does mean that Nemesis was born inside Locke. And the only way Nemesis is able to gain control over Locke is for Locke to die, then Nemesis is able to take his body and control it. There might be a 3 day rule where all this takes place, which is similar to the resurrection story of Jesus where 3 days passes, then he is resurrected. But my point is backed up by the fact Jacob comes to revive Locke when he is pushed out 8 storeys by his dad. Had Jacob not revived him, he could have been re-icarnated as MIB. It's just Jacob has prolonged the situation.
Well, what I was saying was that I watched a science video about time and just threw out the thought that Richard's agelessness could be something to do with a time issue. And although it's not supported by any fact on the show, neither is the notion that Nemesis was born inside of Locke.
Also, did anyone see that the Black Rock blogpage was in a video on ABC.com??

Yeah I know the theory of MIB being Locke from brith is unsupported but it would bring the whole reviving Locke scenario into a different light, if it were true.
I wonder if Ms Hawking giving Dan the journal to write in, had changed the circumstances of how he started writting in the journal in the first place. Maybe how it all happened before, is Dan bought himself a journal. This time his mom buys him a journal and because of this, there is more information recorded, allowing her to be privy to more of the future events.
I see what you're maybe eluding to with the thought of people being constants. But this can only apply to some people. People who believe in a destiny/fate can only live their lives as constants, as their paths can never change. Those that use their free-will and go against their destiny's ("don't tell me what I can't do") are variables. Ms Hawkings is a typical constant, believing she can't change anything.
Holy crap, I can't believe wewere in the clip show!
Yeah, I finally saw it, Curt. They were scrolling through our blog at the s5 e06-08 block (Wed Dec 23)... they showed only two comments, so the producer of the special (or whoever was screen-capturing the website for their show) must have been hitting our page that same day right after you posted it.
Whoo! Very cool! Use us more! ;)
I live in Australia and I can't view that video. Is anyone able to post in on youtube?
Oh wait I found it on YouTube.
I love your podcast guys, but the one thing that bothers me is how poor the sound quality is? Have you tried a different host or something else to increase sound clarity?
Otherwise...awesome!
Personally, I think this means that they're listening. I think they're all big fans of ankh jokes, the phrase "Season 5 eyes", and Invader Zim sound clips, so they just keep coming back for more.
:)
@Montands Arm16:
Do you mean that some ONE or more people sound worse than others or that the podcast, as a whole, needs to sound better?
"I'm gonna eat a rat!"
