The bond between the Tailies and raft survivors grows more strongly as Michael looks for Walt and Sawyer’s gunshot wound worsens. In our flashbacks, the Korean class system can’t stop a meet cute, and Shannon’s step Mom totally sucks. We also deal with our second Island death which makes things on the Island very awkward as our two groups grow closer to meeting.

This week, Kevin and Ben say farewell to the first major player in LOST whose time on the Island has come to an end. As this podcast reaches double digits, a few key moments occur as LOST heads to the end of its first season. Locke once upon a time told Walt his Dad was not “a cool guy”, and as you’ll find out, that turns out to be a huge understatement (spoiler: his Mom isn’t so great either.)

Boone and Locke also make a major discovery in the jungle. Unfortunately, for those who waited an entire month to find out what that was on the next episode, they would be let down with the worst episode of the first season and no further explanation as to what that discovery was. At least the music at the end is good? We’re halfway done with Season One! Continue reading From Broadcast Depth Episode 6: ‘All the Best Cowboys Have Daddy Issues’ & ‘Whatever The Case May Be’
