So it took a lot longer than I ever expected, but I'm back into podcasting again. It's truly amazing what sleep deprivation can do to your podcasting schedule. I'm pumped to go back to school at Lost University and equally psyched for season six. Honestly, I have no idea where the hell this whole thing is going. I've never been more excited for Lost than now.

I've got a ton of theories, some good and some absolutely shameless attempts to absolve myself of past predictions. I've been bouncing them off of Chris and I hope those of you still willing to listen will join us in the discussion. Thanks to Lotto, SHC1970 and the forum regulars for keeping this board semi-active. 

Now that we've got our initial finale reactions out of the way we're going to go back and let everyone listen to exactly how right/wrong we were 6 months ago. Starting with "Dead is Dead," we'll be posting all of the reaction episodes I never got to finish editing during early stage diaper detail. Then we'll go back and flesh out our feelings on the season finale. And time permitting we'll finally get to our newly updated Benjamin Linus character analysis episode. If we're really ahead of schedule we'll put out the Shepard Family Tree Analysis episode.

Thanks for your patience and I promise Chris and I will make it worth your hard drive space during the hiatus and all through the final season.

Namaste and good luck,
Clay

It is great to have you guys back! I cannot wait to hear all the missing podcasts. I remember those days with a newborn and know all about sleep deprivation (I have twins lol).

Clay,  as a former/still sleep deprived parent, I sympathize.  I won't sugar-coat the future, it doesn't improve for a while.  Just stay away from mechanically powered cutting tools, questionable electronics, and when possible, driving.  lol

If you find time to discuss the current ARG (should be finished just before S6), let me know. I have been in the 'game' and can share.  But I must admit we have a bunch of useless clues to the '?' magic box (see JJ Abrams).

Please find time for Ben and the Shepards Family Tree! All that mumbo jumbo time traveling just for a chance to kill Jacob! Bah! I think we've all taken our collect eye off the ball.  Jacob wins - we're right back on the beach eating herring and progress has been made.  MIB wins - so what, he's stuck on a time-jumping island for eternity, alone (ok, maybe he'll have Richard).  Where's the story?  There has to be a third party.  Like Ben said, " . . . everyone answers to someone . . ."  Who do Jacob and MIB answer to?

So glad you are back. 

Razzle, ouch on the twins.  Thanks for the great recap and start to MOTU thread.  New clip out on Friday?

I think the next clip comes out today or tomorrow. You are welcome for the recap. After all this talk about Jacob I would hate to think that is the end of him. I am hoping Jacob has something up his sleeve, his own loop hole so to speak (perhaps those who are coming are his loop hole). You make a good point by bringing up Ben's quote. I also wonder who Jacob and MIB answer to.

Welcome back Dummies,  it's so great to have you two up and running again.  I have to admit when I played the latest episode, I had a hugh smile on my face.

Man I've missed that intro music.

I know what your going through with the kiddie situation, so don't worry, I think I speak for most if not all of us when I say that we'll be here for you guys and we'll always be downloading.

I second what Elton said about missing the intro music!

When the latest episode downloaded into iTunes, my husband said, "Some Dharma Dummies thing is downloading right now..." I must admit I reacted with suitably gasping and squealing and jumping up and down fangirl glee. He just rolled his eyes and shook his head at me.

So so so so so glad you're back! Can't wait for all the upcoming shows. Bring em on!

And I've got two rugrats, so I know exactly what you mean about sleep deprivation. It does get better... or so I'm told!

Glad to have you back guys!

I actually think it has worked out well with these episode delays....we've all had lots of time to think about it all...and then to hear you with your initial responses.....Fantastic!

And thanks!
