Once again Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof sat down to answer questions about Lost. Here's a summary of all the new and interesting things they said:
1. They killed Eko because they had a deal with AAA that he would be on for a little more than a year and no more.
2. There are other Tailies alive, we just don't know where they are. We will be seeing Cindy, the flight attendant, and Zack and Emma, the kids, in episode 3.08.
3. The assumptions that the Monster was downloading memories from Eko in the 23rd Psalm and that Yemi was a manifestation of the island generated by the Monster are good ones.
4. Eko said "You're next" and Locke interpreted it as "We're next".
5. Eko died on his own terms.
6. The producers wouldn't answer if the island was constantly moving.
7. We might come to learn what happened to all the doctors in future episodes.
8. Our time on "alcatraz" will be over in episode 3.06.
9. Damon and Carlton use The Stand and Charles Dickens novels as good models for telling a long, sprawling, serialized character-based story.
10. We will return to the Black Rock.

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"!!

Official LOST Podcast Summary
This is a summary of everything I learned from listening to this week's Official Lost Podcast. By the way, this was one of the better and more informative podcasts AND included spoilerish details about the rest of season 3. I plan to do a summary of every podcast so check back every Tuesday afternoon/night to find it.
Caution: This contains spoilers.
The podcast started with Terry O' Quinn expressing his joy at having the chance to destroy the computer at the end of season 2. Then, in regards to Locke's admission that he was wrong about the button to Desmond, O'Quinn said "Maybe there'll be some evidence to the contrary this season."
Then the podcast moved over to Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof for their usual banter and q&a session. Here's a list of the interesting things they said:
1. Pickett and Colleen are an item.
2. They had decided in season 2 that Sun had actually had an affair with Jae.
3. Things are looking good for Sawyer and Kate (as a couple).
4. When Ben said that he has been living on the island all his life it implies that there were people on the island before the Dharma Initiative, which started around 1980 (as per the orientation films). Rosseau arrived on the island about the same time as the Dharma people. Carlton also said that one should also remember the statue and the Black Rock.
5. We will see the return of Locke as man of the jungle.
6. We will probably be seeing more of Shannon.
7. A confirmation of if you're dead you're dead on Lost. You will only return through flashbacks.
8. We will find the Flame Station in season 3.
9. We will find out about Jack's tattoos in season 3.
10. Assuming that Ben is talking about himself in season 2 when he is talking about the leader of the Others is a good assumption, but don't close the door on the possibility of another leader.
11. Claire and Charlie could become another Lost triangle.
