Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof returned to the podcast, this time with exclusive revelations and spoilers. Enjoy.
1. There is a special Stephen King reference hidden in Every Man for Himself (they didn't say but my money is on the bunny).
2. As for implications of the second island, they said only that escape would not be as easy as originally thought.
3. In the Glass Ballerina, Jae did commit suicide. They said the mystery surrounding Jae's death was unintentional.
4. They mentioned Sawyer's daughter Clementine but said nothing definitive about her.
5. There are two major outcomes of Colleen's death: the x-ray picture that Jack noticed and that Pickett, Colleen's husband, might seek some vengeance.
6. Cost of Living is an Eko story and someone significant will die.
7. They plan to do the break in the middle of the season thing next year as well.
8. The polar bears escaped during the collapse of Dharma like the lions at the Baghdad zoo that escaped during the fall of Baghdad.
9. The bears have eaten 20 people so far (said in a we might be joking but you don't know type of way)
10. No, Ben is not "evil because the polar bear stole his toy truck when he was little."
11. As the hatch began to implode a vacuum was created which heated the particles of air and created a subsequent explosion.
12. Charlie was not directly involved in the explosion.
13. Eko will not wake up blind.
14. Yes, Kate does love Sawyer.
15. There is a good possibility of discovering a gay character on the show. 4 to 1 odds.
16. They are currently writing episode 10, which will be a Hurley flashback.
17. When characters don't know who died, Scott or Steve, it is just an extension of the same old gag. There is no large significance to the Scott/Steve thing.
18. The turbine man from the pilot was Gary Troupe, the author of Bad Twin.
19. Paulo and Nikki will be in episode 3.05.
20. The show will eventually answer the question of what all the other survivors are doing while Jack and company are going off on their adventures. It would "make a good episode."

Juliet Shoots Someone
Although not until February…
According to an Entertainment Weekly article:
On a remote Hawaiian beachscape where turquoise waves slither up tan sands, Josh Holloway, Evangeline Lilly and several others (including Others) are filming a whopper of a scene for a February episode of LOST. Spotting this reporter through the trees, Elizabeth Mitchell scoots over… “Well,” she says, cheerfully excusing herself, “I’m going to go shoot someone.” Cameras rolling, she expertly wields a Sig Sauer and pumps two bullets into someone shocking; the still-standing are left gasping as she coldly lowers the gun.
Special thanks to Nikki at Approaching Lost for the tip.

Episode 3.04 Every Man for Himself
Wow, gotta say I enjoyed tonight's episode a lot. Sawyer flashbacks are always fun because of the cons. This time I knew it would be a con from the very beginning and it was still great to watch. I do wonder if Cassidy is just conning Sawyer about his daughter to recover some of her stolen funds or if Sawyer really does have a daughter. Hopefully we will be told the answer in a later flashback. I wouldn't be surprised if she was getting back at him. That option has my vote. The pacemaker had me going for a bit. I was convinced that the Others would go that far to stop him from escaping but was not aware that the technology needed for that process is most likely out of reach.
Gotta love Jack trying to save someone again. Jack tries to fix things, that's what he does. His character is most effective when that's what's going on. Apparently, he's there to fix an Other. Someone commenting about the episode on Pop Candy wrote that they think it is a x-ray of Locke and that's why he couldn't walk. I'm not buying. I guess the Black Cloud could have taken the x-ray...but still, I'm not buying it. I believe that Jack will get the chance to fix someone and succeed. It will probably be someone that they need to defeat the crazy pirates (or so it seems from the promo) in the series finale. I also want Jack to get a chance to "fix" Juliet. She needs someone like Jack, how convenient that he landed on the island.
Desmond can most definitely predict the future. The questions are how much does he know and if he will be able to protect everyone. His ability will come in handy with those crazy pirates lurking. Maybe they are descendants of the Black Rock. How come Rosseau doesn't know about the crazy pirates? Maybe she just figured they were all Others. Did the crazy pirates steal the children and the rest of the tailies? Is that why Goodwin and Ethan needed to go make lists? So they knew who was on the plane before the crazy pirates started infiltrating or kidnapping? So many questions.
What do the Others need Sawyer for? Will he be a key part of fighting the crazy pirates? He is one of the stars...
While Sawyer was waking up, Mr. Friendly or Tom, was saying that ever since the Hatch blew up the Others' communications haven't been working. Makes sense. That electromagnetic energy would destroy a lot of electronics. Did it mess up the compass in Michael and Walt's boat? Will they be back? That puts the Others at a big disadvantage if they have to face the crazy pirates. No way of communicating with the outside world. And another thing, why didn't the crazy pirates attack the subdivision that the Others live in? They have to have ways of protecting themselves.
Paulo was kind of ticked about Desmond taking his five iron. How can you resent people for trying to save the day? I'd be interested to see what makes that guy tick. That is, after we learn how Locke got paralyzed. Of course, seeing how things are going, that will probably be the flashback for the series finale.
The second island. Hhhmm...I'm guessing it's hidden from the mainland somehow? That's one question they will have to answer pretty quickly because Locke is gonna attempt a rescue.
So maybe we have misunderstood the Others and they are really trying to prevent the crazy pirates from taking over the world. They definitely weren't the best at making themselves understood and certainly don't mind hurting people (but not killing mind you!). A little "Can you guys help us destroy the crazy pirates before they take over the world?" could have gone a long way.
Even though tonight raised a whole bunch of questions I feel that they were all questions that are leading us somewhere. We are moving towards something big. It's like we are on a roller coaster that is climbing and somewhere along the way we are going to reach the top and it is going to rocket us down. Of course we will probably have to climb again and take a second drop before the end of the show...but I'm ok with that. If only it were Wednesday tomorrow...sigh...

Official Lost Podcast Summary 10-25-06
This week's official podcast was pretty short due to Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof's absence. Apparently, they were too busy making the actual TV show to be able to record the podcast. In their absence there was an interview with AAA.
AAA said what he liked most about his character, Eko, is that he fits no stereotype. He is a mass murderer with devotion who has a "redemptive quality" that makes him accessible to the viewers.
AAA also stated that the sort of kidnapping and murder by gangsters and warlords that was depicted in "The 23rd Psalm" does not really happen in Nigeria. However, he said that it was still an extremely well-received episode in his home country.
What AAA thinks that makes Lost so interesting is the dynamic that appears because no character is safe. He believes it adds to the tension and the overall arc of each character. "Week to week you have no idea if a character will be able to overcome a nemesis". He also ominously hinted that more of that would be appearing in season 3 "for sure"!!

Lost Spoilers for Kristen at E!Online
The following is an excerpt from Kristen at E!Online Hot A's Column.
Though I spent this past Monday twitching from chat withdrawals, I really do love the new site! My Q: On Lost, is Kate's "love confession" distinct from her notorious "choice?" Or are the two things one and the same? —Leah Kate
From what I’ve heard, it is one and the same. Though I’m only 99 percent sure on that, given how things have been changing from the script! Don’t forget that I’ll be watching this Wednesday’s Lost with you (at 9 p.m. Pacific Time) on the message boards. And ooh, mama, it’s a crazy episode! Not only do you see the most dramatic exchange between Kate and any man ever on this show (hint: It is a life-or-death love confession), but you can expect the following happenings:
- An animal “dies”
- An Other dies
- Sawyer has a heart-wrenching storyline
- Sawyer finds his Westmoreland and someone else very close to him
- We find out Juliet and Jack have one very big thing in common
