LC #26a: Fade to White (fixed)

Posted by Erik On May - 27 - 2009

lostchatter_itunesOOPS! We had some very complicated technical difficulties human errors that meant episode 26 wasn't mixed properly. Portions of conversations cut out, people talking over top of one another... it was pretty nasty. But it's fixed! Since most of our listeners had already downloaded the episode, I'm reposting it as an entirely new post for their convenience. Also, as a result, we'll be holding back on the next episode by a couple of days in order to space everything out. Sorry for the inconvenience!


There are tons of things to discuss as a result of the season five finale — far too much to cover in one show. So in this episode, we give our thoughts and observations on the finale, and we give you a preview of what we'll be discussing over the next few weeks (yes, we'll be continuing LOSTChatter throughout the entire off-season!).
