It up or downloads as a music file instead of a podcast with Ryan & Jen as the Artists. The downside being it doesn't really SAVE your place if you go off and do something else but if you note the minute marker you can fastforward to where you left off. Also I had some that just wouldn't load but only a few. Hope this helps! Nice to See you again on the Blog, come on over to Facebook and keep up with some of us Diehards over there! I think Locke got ‘infected’ with MIB-ishness but not fully possessed until the physical death.

In Season 6 MIB said that Locke was a sucker who provided him with the one thing he needed, the dead body of a candidate. The iconic scene you refer to pushed Locke toward his ultimate fate, but didn't immediately claim him. My answer would be a definitive no, although it seemed like a plausible theory for some time.

The show cut to a commercial and at the time it first aired we all assumed it was a chance encounter that exposed one of our character to the evil on the island. Now seeing the end, did Locke get taken over by MIB then or not? I'm still not sure.

Is that too simple? The story started with Jack opening his eye and ended with him closing his eye ~~ it was His journey and his journey satisfactorily concluded. The rest is as Ryan said "Window Dressing."

I would love to be able to manage the way I listen to them. I had much the same experience with the "Lost Encyclopedia" as I did with "The End." Beautiful, but unsatisfactory in terms of the grand design. I think the prevailing opinion on the ultimate meaning of Lost has coalesced around what was immediately observable, ignoring the subtext. Some of the loose ends we labored over have been dismissed. However, Ryan pointed out in reference to Jughead that you do not introduce a gun in Act I unless you intend for it to go off in Act III. But neither do you introduce oracular warnings about the end of the world, pandemic infections, indications that the fabric of reality is coming undone etc without any proper resolution.

Second, is there a site out there that list some sort of master 'diagram' of LOST? Like a timeline that super-imposes everything? There is so much to digest with the show, the island, the characters, the other-others, time travel, statues, etc.... If I ever get the chance to buy the DVD set and watch it all within a few days time - maybe it will all fit together. Watching over a period of years you tent to forget things from year to year and genrally lose that 'overall view and understanding'. First, thx Ryan and Jen for the years of dedication….

Some thoughts about what you commented: -"The New Man in Charge": I think its explanations were a bit for dummies, see the polar bears (really?) and the pregnant women (that made me congratulate myself because my theory was true). I'd have liked to see how Desmond went out from the Island and met Penny again. -The Sawyer-Juliet (yeah, she was the best among the actresses, she's simply amazing) relationship: I agree with you. It wasn't likely to happen but they started to trust in each other and besides she was the only one who could control James! And, oh boy, that cut you chose with the great John Locke (my favourite character) saying "don't tell me what I can't do, this is my destiny" is hearbreaking. And the one between Penny and Desmond... I saw the episode recently and well, seeing that I can't still understand why there are people who say the most important thing from the show weren't the characters but the mistery. Thank you for this amazing podcast, I was a new listener during season six but I enjoyed a lot listening to it and besides I met great people thanks to it. At this point I should say... Namaste and good luck ;) Pd: By the way, the last song from The Others Lost band is the most beautiful of all. Hi YAE, Jen and Ryan:

I think it is real easy for all of us to gloss over the kind of dedication and time that must have been given by Ryan and Jen in doing the Transmission podcasts. But this last one, from the comments, to the well thought out favorites, to the telephone calls and snippets of the show itself...... WOW! All I could think of all the way through was how many hours must Ryan & Jen have given to all of us, and the LOST fan base, to make such a production. Thank you Ryan and Jen!!! Some of the individual weekly podcasts may in time get deleted. But this last one will be archived forever and placed in with the 6 year DVD set. Or maybe the Blu-Ray set. Or possibly both!! :-) You guys are the greatest!!! Lyle PS Did I say how good it was to see all the familiar names above again! Just like "old home week". hehehehe In my humble opinion…….. probably the best podcast of them all.

As per my comment above, I loved EVERY part of LOST, so I also loved all the moments and episodes you two mentioned in your final wrap-up podcast; they just weren't all necessarily my favorite parts. Also, I too would be thrilled to be on board for POP-spotting. After a 20+ year hiatus from TV/ movies/ music, I have come full circle and really enjoy following culture and SOME of the latest trends ~~ particularly well-written, acted, directed, scored and photographed movies.

I found myself relating to maybe 20% of your favorite episodes and moments. There are certain things that the majority of us agree on: that the Pilot and Season One were amazing, that Ben was a diabolical and magnetic character, that Eko was a super-cool character, that every Desmond-centric episode was a mind-boggling game-changer, that the chemistry between him and Penny was heart-bursting and that "The Constant" was a stand-out favorite episode, that Locke really dominated Season One starting with Walk-about, and that the accompanying musical score throughout the entire series was stellar, among others that are slipping my mind at the moment. One of the callers mentioned the moment that Jack and Sawyer shared about Christian's message to his son as a favorite moment and I couldn't agree more. Additionally, the moment when Miles witnessed his father truly loving him as a baby in Season 5, and when Sawyer was finally able to get some release and relief after killing the man (Locke's birth dad) who had destroyed his family. For me, LOST was and always will be about either being able to 'move on' from painful 'Father' or childhood issues, or finding redemption, and in either case ultimately learning to be whole and connected and useful and loved.

This morning I fire up iTunes and the first podcast I see downloading is “The Lost Year”. Could it be? I’m afraid that it’s got to be an episode of “365 Days of Astronomy”, “Astronomy Cast”, “Cheap Astronomy Podcast”, “NOVA scienceNOW”, or any of a number of other podcasts I subscribe to. I have to look twice. Yes, it is The Transmission that is downloading now. But is says that it was cast by The Transmission on May 23 and today is only May 21. Jen, Ryan, did you transmit this on the right compass heading? The proper bearing was 325 degrees.
