It's a radioactive week on Down the Hatch as we embark on LOST Season 5, Episode 3, "Jughead." In this week's podcast, Josh Wigler (@roundhoward) and Mike Bloom (@AMikeBloomType) break out the lead to stop a nuclear catastrophe, while also breaking down what just might be one of the single most important scenes in the entirety of LOST.
About Down the Hatch ...
LOST: Down the Hatch is a full-tilt spoiler-filled rewatch of LOST. Every week, Josh and Mike break down an episode of LOST with the benefit of knowing the series' full trajectory, using the following structure as a guide:
• We Go "Fourth" - Josh and Mike begin each podcast with a deep-dive into the story both in front of and behind the camera, and they do so with the assistance of eight sound clips from each episode.
• The Others - Josh and Mike answer questions sent their way by listeners through the official e-mail address: [email protected]
• 23 Points - Each week, Josh and Mike hand out points for the best and worst characters of the episode in question, in a foolhardy attempt to determine the most and least valuable players in the LOST pantheon.
• 4.2 Stars - Josh and Mike rank every episode of LOST, by rating them all on a scale from 0 - 4.2. Josh and Mike offer their individual scores, listeners' scores will be averaged as a third data point, then the three points combine as the podcast's official score on each episode.
