Episode 27: Knives, Aliens and Dinosaurs (S1E04, "Walkabout")

Episode 29: NotLocke (S6E04 "The Substitute")

Wedding planning is hard, especially if it's in a maybe-not-real-future-timeline! Due to life things, bringing you this episode recorded in April in ~checks watch~ July? whoops. At least neither of us are sentient islands trying to escape the confines of our mystical Pacific existence! Maybe we should check to see if one of us is buried in the backyard... " Sawyer is drunk. anyway come listen to my high school AU fanfic where Ben Linus and Locke are teachers and everything's fine. Just fine. totally fine. Also there's a thing with numbers, so many numbers.   Danielle's brain breaks once again as we try to figure out what the hell is going on in Season Six. Episode beverage: Revision Brewing's High Juno

Episode 28: The Tailraiders' Tale (S2E07 "The Other 48 Days")

The creators rush to show what the Tailraiders (plz don't sue us Capcom) were doing for the entire first season in a single episode! Somehow this feels less rushed than Season 8 of Game of Thrones (which isn't discussed as we recorded before it started).  As we discuss where bananas are cultivated, we're introduced to a bunch of new friends that are promptly killed off.   Why is Nathan spending two hours solo in the jungle- did he eat a bad banana?  An unsolved mystery, alas. Goodwin returns(?) and the flight attendant finally gets a name on this episode of Lost At Random!  We also attempt to figure out what character class Mr. Eko happens to be.  Why do the first two seasons love choppy slomo, and this feels like a weird way to reca- Er. Did they just kill Shannon in the final 10 seconds?!

Episode 27: Knives, Aliens and Dinosaurs (S1E04, "Walkabout")

We're back after a short hiatus!  Having a full time job can be draining, just like Locke's office job- better check our bags for knives.   We're back to one of the earliest episodes as we discover the origins of the show's mysteries that EVERYONE knows.  Everyone but Danielle, as she tries to figure out who the older, nicely dressed man is creeping on Jack?  How is it that so many characters stare right up at a giant monster (possibly digger?) and still not describe what it looks like?  Does Shannon have any redeeming qualities?

Episode 26: Flirty Banter (S3E17 "Catch-22")

Desmond sees Charlie's death, which obviously means he needs to do something like... a CAMPING TRIP!  We hear all about Desmond's time making wine in one of the more convoluted backstory revelations of the show.  How many different classes is Desmond gonna take?  Jin tells the best Korean horror story of all time and everyone else is making awkward flirty banter.  Those clever LOST writers sneak in a reference to the episode title, but we all know how it's gonna end already.  Why is there a giant cable on the beach? Episode Beverage: Plum Deluxe Rise and Shine tea.

Episode 25: Roll for Dharma Initiative! (S5E08 "LaFleur")

Everything flashes white.  You're now in the 1970s; you only have the items that were on you when you disappeared.  Was that a gunshot in the distance?  ROLL FOR DHARMA INITIATIVE!  LOST at Random makes a big genre shift as we give up on trying to figure out what is going on, and realize that everything can be solved with a good ol' charisma roll.  Sawyer, Juliet, and Miles adapt to their new classes in the Dharma Initiative, but what skills will be necessary to take on the new challenges they might face? Just what level IS Richard Alpert anyway?   The party is broken up, but how long until they rejoin? Wait, what?  It's gonna take 3 years?  Roll a survival check!  Episode beverages: Acoustic Ales Unplugged 2016, Culmination Brewing Illusions of Grandeur, Matchless Bananas on Fire
