1:28:22

The endgame is fast approaching. We talk about how satisfying it is to watch Jack come into his own as a leader, how moving it is to see Sideways Locke accept his offer of help, how frustrating Jacob's conception of "choice" is, and much more. And for our interview, we're back where it all began: With Jack Bender, executive producer of "Lost" and d…

Season 6: Across the Sea 1:19:33

1:19:33

It's no secret that this episode — where we learn about the early lives of Jacob and the Man in Black, along with their Mother — isn't a favorite among Lost fans. So we dig into what works, what doesn't and how it could've been different. Tucker Gates, who directed this episode, offers his thoughts as well. Find us on Twitter @TheHatchPodcast and a…

Season 6: The Candidate 1:08:37

1:08:37

Yes, it's the episode where Sayid redeems himself. The one where Sun and Jin meet their terrible fate. The one where Sawyer is at his best — and most tragic. We analyze it from every angle, and get some more Season 6 stories from executive producer Jean Higgins. The end is near! Find us on Twitter @TheHatchPodcast and at Facebook.com/TheHatchPodcas…

We dig into Desmond's sideways life, in which he works for Charles Widmore and believes he has it all — until Charlie wakes him up, of course — and how it might change the way we understand the light at the heart of the Island.
