Let's Get Lost with The Oceanic Three
We're your Oceanic Three: Theresa, Amanda, and Kip. Join us as we get in-depth about our favourite television show - Lost! We talk about everything: The Island, The Survivors, The Tailies, The Others, The Myths, The Theories, and on and on and on, but we also talk about how Lost changed the television landscape when it came out and how it still reverberates to this day.
Most of all, though, we always come back to how Lost is primarily a character-driven show. For every myth and mystery, five incredible character stories were told. They were complex, mysterious, beautiful, and sometimes challenging to watch - but the characters and their interwoven lives brought Lost to a different level unlike anything ever seen on television.
We would love it if you joined us as we get in-depth about all the Losties, what makes them tick, why they do what they do, and ultimately - what they're doing on the Island.

Peek behind the curtain as we throw open the doors of our studio and invite you to join a heart-to-heart where we lay it all on the table. Ever wondered if your phone-use quirks matched up with ours? From gaming obsessions to social media scrolls, we're sharing it all, alongside the unexpectedly endearing 'old person' habits we've come to love. And because we're all about dreaming big, we get real about the skills we're itching to master—yes, even the ones straight out of a fantasy novel.
Pull up a chair and share a laugh as we contrast the wide-eyed childhood dreams of carefree adulthood with the often comedic reality of bills and job woes. We serve up a smorgasbord of conversation, from our ultimate no-limit dream meals to that one dish we'd happily eat daily. Then, join us as we muse on the what-ifs of life, whether it's the allure of starting fresh amidst rural tranquility or the electric buzz of the Big Apple.
The art of podcasting isn't all smooth sailing; just ask Kip, our editing maestro who sometimes has to save us from our own spider-induced chaos. We'll give you a sneak peek at the outtakes that are too good to keep private (thank goodness for Patreon) and tackle the big questions, like our perspectives on that polarizing 'Lost' finale. Whether we're debating how the show might fare on today's streaming platforms or playfully recasting it with the help of ChatGPT, we promise a blend of nostalgia and fresh takes that's just as satisfying as your favorite comfort food.

Kip:
[00:00:00 - 00:00:10]
Well, here we are. We are happy to be here. We're finally made it back into the studio. Hello, Amanda. Hello, Theresa.
Theresa:
[00:00:10 - 00:00:11]
Hi.
Kip:
[00:00:11 - 00:00:13]
Hello, my friends.
Theresa:
[00:00:14 - 00:00:20]
Best friends. I'm glad that we're doing this to kind of get us back into it without instead of going straight into season two.
Kip:
[00:00:21 - 00:00:28]
So what this is, what Theresa is referring to is we are doing. Talk to me about anything episode today. Ask us anything.
Theresa:
[00:00:29 - 00:00:32]
Ama ama aua ama.
Amand:
[00:00:33 - 00:00:58]
Anything goes ag. We're very good at this Internet thing, so that's exactly what we're going to do. And we did go on our social media. And if you follow us at let's get lost pod, you would have seen that we put out a call for some questions, but before we get to that, we thought it'd be kind of fun if we tried to get to know each other a bit better, show you guys a bit more about who we are. All right, let's get into it.
Amand:
[00:00:58 - 00:01:15]
So we all know each other, like Chris said, pretty good, but we thought it'd be good if you guys. Apparently, we don't know each other at all. Kip, show us what you got in terms of questions.
Kip:
[00:01:16 - 00:01:23]
All right. If you could please go into the settings on your phone to see which app you use the most.
Theresa:
[00:01:24 - 00:01:26]
Oh, I can tell you already, like, I don't even have to.
Amand:
[00:01:26 - 00:01:27]
How do I do that?
Kip:
[00:01:28 - 00:01:31]
Surely there's a screen time option. Screen time thing.
Amand:
[00:01:31 - 00:01:36]
Oh, there is. Yeah. Okay. See, I didn't even know this. I don't know anything about this.
Theresa:
[00:01:37 - 00:01:41]
See? All activity. No, maybe not screen time.
Amand:
[00:01:41 - 00:01:47]
Okay, guys, it's messages. Okay, well, that makes sense, but if we're talking app.
Kip:
[00:01:47 - 00:01:48]
Yeah.
Amand:
[00:01:48 - 00:01:57]
Yeah, it is surprisingly not what I thought it would be. So I think there's something wrong here. Oh, no, it totally is. It's Instagram. It's Instagram, guys.
Amand:
[00:01:57 - 00:01:58]
It's Instagram.
Kip:
[00:01:59 - 00:02:00]
That makes sense.
Theresa:
[00:02:00 - 00:02:07]
Okay. Mine, number one, is merged dragons, and then it's Pokemon Go.
Kip:
[00:02:07 - 00:02:08]
What is merged dragons?
Theresa:
[00:02:08 - 00:02:11]
It's a game I play constantly for some reason.
Kip:
[00:02:11 - 00:02:15]
Mine is Pokemon go, followed by Reddit.
Amand:
[00:02:15 - 00:02:30]
Both of those track as well. To be fair, I had gone on a little bit of a Pokemon go hiatus, and so I think that would have been higher if it wasn't for recently. Even though I played for, like, 14 hours on Saturday, I still don't think that was enough to up it to up your average.
Theresa:
[00:02:30 - 00:02:34]
Yeah, because you'd have to have to do it daily. Like, I play daily.
Kip:
[00:02:34 - 00:02:35]
Me too.
Amand:
[00:02:35 - 00:02:38]
Good question, though. I'm really glad it wasn't something really embarrassing.
Kip:
[00:02:38 - 00:02:41]
Okay. Someone else asks a question before I ask my second.
Theresa:
[00:02:41 - 00:02:48]
So I have a couple random questions. All right, so the question is, what old person things do you.
Kip:
[00:02:52 - 00:03:01]
Have to think about that, Dan? What old person things do I. Do? You always wear slippers? Yeah, I do.
Kip:
[00:03:01 - 00:03:02]
I always wear slippers.
Theresa:
[00:03:02 - 00:03:07]
That's good, though. My family says that if you don't wear slippers in the house, you're going to get bare coast veins.
Amand:
[00:03:08 - 00:03:17]
What's the old person thing I do? I don't know if I have anything old persony that I do. Do you guys think I do?
Kip:
[00:03:17 - 00:03:18]
I'm trying to think.
Theresa:
[00:03:18 - 00:03:19]
I'm trying to think too.
Amand:
[00:03:21 - 00:03:23]
What do you do? That's old lady ish.
Theresa:
[00:03:24 - 00:03:27]
I mean, I am partial to an early dinner.
Amand:
[00:03:27 - 00:03:30]
Actually, I would eat dinner at 04:30 p.m.
Theresa:
[00:03:30 - 00:03:32]
I love an early dinner. We do.
Kip:
[00:03:34 - 00:03:35]
That's weird.
Amand:
[00:03:37 - 00:03:38]
Why so weird?
Kip:
[00:03:38 - 00:03:40]
I don't know. So early?
Theresa:
[00:03:40 - 00:03:55]
I don't know. It's kind of nice. Like, I remember, I think for my birthday one year, Amanda asked me what I wanted and I was like, let's do an old person day. And so I think we had an early bird dinner at like 430. And then we went to the casino to play bingo and then we went to bed.
Amand:
[00:03:55 - 00:03:56]
I also love a good game of bingo.
Kip:
[00:03:56 - 00:03:57]
Yeah, I really like bingo.
Theresa:
[00:03:57 - 00:03:59]
We haven't played bingo in a while. We should probably go back.
Amand:
[00:04:00 - 00:04:04]
Yeah, I think that's about it. I don't know. I don't knit.
Theresa:
[00:04:05 - 00:04:06]
I crochet.
Amand:
[00:04:06 - 00:04:08]
That's not very. That's like the cooler version.
Kip:
[00:04:08 - 00:04:10]
I get really angry at young people.
Theresa:
[00:04:10 - 00:04:13]
Oh, same. I always call them the youth a lot.
Amand:
[00:04:13 - 00:04:15]
Yeah, you do like to say youth.
Theresa:
[00:04:16 - 00:04:17]
Those youth.
Amand:
[00:04:17 - 00:04:23]
Okay, good to know. All right, I have one. What skill would you most like to learn, if you could?
Kip:
[00:04:25 - 00:04:27]
How to be an electrician.
Theresa:
[00:04:28 - 00:04:29]
Wow.
Amand:
[00:04:29 - 00:04:30]
Why?
Kip:
[00:04:30 - 00:04:46]
I just think it would be so handy. There's always so many things wrong when you own a house that has to do with electrical stuff and it's one of those things that you really can't do on your own other than super small things. So it would just save a lot of money and then I could wire circuit boards and stuff.
Amand:
[00:04:47 - 00:04:49]
What would your skill be?
Theresa:
[00:04:49 - 00:04:58]
Oh, yeah, we really veered off course there. What would my skill be? Well, I mean, I feel like that's a profession.
Amand:
[00:04:59 - 00:05:01]
Mine is kind of a profession too.
Theresa:
[00:05:01 - 00:05:02]
Can I pick a profession?
Kip:
[00:05:02 - 00:05:03]
Sure, if it's a skill.
Theresa:
[00:05:03 - 00:05:05]
Well, it doesn't have to be like a real life skill.
Amand:
[00:05:05 - 00:05:10]
Or does that mean you can't be like magic? Well, I guess you could. That's fair.
Theresa:
[00:05:10 - 00:05:12]
Okay, can I pick two? Can I pick three?
Amand:
[00:05:12 - 00:05:13]
Is magic one of them, yeah, one.
Theresa:
[00:05:13 - 00:05:17]
Of them is magic. Okay. I'm obsessed with magic.
Kip:
[00:05:17 - 00:05:18]
I didn't know that.
Amand:
[00:05:18 - 00:05:20]
Like, magic tricks and magic shows. Oh, fuck.
Kip:
[00:05:20 - 00:05:22]
I had no saw.
Amand:
[00:05:22 - 00:05:27]
What was his name? Yeah, David Copperfield.
Theresa:
[00:05:27 - 00:05:27]
In Vegas?
Amand:
[00:05:27 - 00:05:28]
Yeah, in Vegas.
Theresa:
[00:05:28 - 00:05:30]
It was actually really fucking cool.
Kip:
[00:05:30 - 00:05:32]
Did you see carrot top?
Theresa:
[00:05:32 - 00:05:33]
Carrot top? A magician.
Amand:
[00:05:33 - 00:05:34]
He's a comedian.
Theresa:
[00:05:37 - 00:05:38]
No. Sometimes.
Kip:
[00:05:38 - 00:05:40]
Did you see Sigmund and Freud? No.
Amand:
[00:05:40 - 00:05:44]
They are also. Oh, no, they are. No, they're the tiger people.
Theresa:
[00:05:44 - 00:05:46]
No, that's something in Roy.
Amand:
[00:05:47 - 00:05:52]
Yeah, Sigmund Freud. I thought you said Siegfried and Royal and Roy. Yes.
Kip:
[00:05:52 - 00:05:54]
Siegfried, Siegfield and Roy.
Amand:
[00:05:54 - 00:05:55]
You're thinking of. Penn.
Kip:
[00:05:57 - 00:05:59]
And Roy were magicians.
Amand:
[00:05:59 - 00:05:59]
Tiger people.
Kip:
[00:06:00 - 00:06:01]
But are they magical tigers?
Theresa:
[00:06:02 - 00:06:04]
I don't know that they were. I thought they were just tigers.
Kip:
[00:06:04 - 00:06:08]
They made the tigers disappear. I don't think all they did was tigers.
Theresa:
[00:06:09 - 00:06:10]
I don't know. I thought they just played with.
Amand:
[00:06:10 - 00:06:21]
Oh, yeah. German american magicians. Siegfried and Roy were a duo of german american magicians and entertainers best known for their appearances with white tigers.
Kip:
[00:06:21 - 00:06:23]
And then one of the tigers killed one of them.
Theresa:
[00:06:23 - 00:06:26]
No, I don't think it killed him. I think it just, like, attacked him.
Kip:
[00:06:26 - 00:06:27]
And then probably killed him.
Amand:
[00:06:27 - 00:06:46]
They're both dead. They're very old. Sorry. They died in 2021. Siegfried died at 81 and Roy died in 2020 at age 75.
Amand:
[00:06:47 - 00:06:50]
There wasn't tiger incident, but neither of them.
Theresa:
[00:06:50 - 00:06:54]
They didn't die. I think it mauled his neck or something. He couldn't talk or something.
Kip:
[00:06:54 - 00:06:56]
Oh, yeah. How do you remember these things?
Theresa:
[00:06:56 - 00:07:07]
I remember very random things. But yes, magic. I love magic. Sometimes I just lie in bed watching Amand, like you guys.
Amand:
[00:07:07 - 00:07:10]
The story of the tiger is very fucked up.
Kip:
[00:07:10 - 00:07:11]
Sorry.
Amand:
[00:07:14 - 00:07:15]
I couldn't help myself.
Kip:
[00:07:16 - 00:07:17]
It went for his throat.
Amand:
[00:07:17 - 00:07:25]
Right? Yes. The whole story is very disturbing. Anyway, you were saying, Teresa?
Theresa:
[00:07:25 - 00:07:29]
I was going to say, I watch a lot of America's got Talent and Britain's got talent. Magic.
Kip:
[00:07:30 - 00:07:31]
Just the magic bits.
Theresa:
[00:07:31 - 00:07:43]
Yes, entirely. Yeah. So magic. And then the other one would be, if flying was a real thing, I would want to do that.
Kip:
[00:07:43 - 00:07:45]
Well, obviously, if we could choose.
Theresa:
[00:07:45 - 00:07:52]
Well, that's why I said, is it real life thing or not real life thing? And then a matter of, like, magic.
Kip:
[00:07:53 - 00:07:57]
Yeah, but you can't have flying as a hobby. A skill or a skill.
Theresa:
[00:07:58 - 00:07:59]
Birds have fly.
Kip:
[00:07:59 - 00:08:00]
We are not birds.
Amand:
[00:08:01 - 00:08:05]
That leads into mine, because if I could learn a skill, it would be how to fly a plane.
Kip:
[00:08:05 - 00:08:06]
Oh, cool. That's my number.
Amand:
[00:08:06 - 00:08:10]
Because I'm terrified of flying and I feel like if I was in control of it, I'd feel better.
Theresa:
[00:08:10 - 00:08:10]
No, you wouldn't.
Kip:
[00:08:10 - 00:08:12]
I think Amanda, she likes to be in control.
Theresa:
[00:08:12 - 00:08:14]
She likes to be in control, but I don't. Could you.
Amand:
[00:08:15 - 00:08:18]
That's the one thing to know about me, apparently, I like to be in control.
Kip:
[00:08:18 - 00:08:20]
Amanda, come over the intercom.
Amand:
[00:08:20 - 00:08:20]
Ha.
Kip:
[00:08:22 - 00:08:23]
Just fYi.
Amand:
[00:08:24 - 00:08:30]
Fuck you guys. You guys be in control and totally calm.
Theresa:
[00:08:30 - 00:08:32]
No, out of all of us, you're the least.
Amand:
[00:08:32 - 00:08:33]
Seven out of ten.
Theresa:
[00:08:34 - 00:08:43]
Seven out of 100. My other one, since one is not allowed, was going to be medicine.
Amand:
[00:08:44 - 00:08:45]
You could learn that now.
Theresa:
[00:08:45 - 00:08:47]
I'm not going to med school now.
Kip:
[00:08:47 - 00:08:50]
1000, but you could learn first aid.
Theresa:
[00:08:51 - 00:08:52]
I have my first aid.
Kip:
[00:08:52 - 00:08:53]
So you have that.
Theresa:
[00:08:53 - 00:08:59]
No, but I want to be able to, like, I want to be confident enough to put in a trach.
Kip:
[00:08:59 - 00:09:01]
You want to be a doctor.
Theresa:
[00:09:02 - 00:09:05]
Yeah, but, like, not actually go to med school.
Kip:
[00:09:05 - 00:09:06]
You're a boon.
Theresa:
[00:09:08 - 00:09:13]
Do not. I'm not boon. I would never just assume that you would put a pen in someone's throat.
Kip:
[00:09:16 - 00:09:17]
Good question.
Theresa:
[00:09:17 - 00:09:18]
That is a good question, Kipper.
Kip:
[00:09:19 - 00:09:23]
All right. This one is. You have to answer about me.
Amand:
[00:09:23 - 00:09:24]
Okay.
Kip:
[00:09:25 - 00:09:31]
If I won the lottery, what would be the first big splurge? That I would buy?
Theresa:
[00:09:33 - 00:09:38]
The Hudson Bay canoe. It was on your registry.
Amand:
[00:09:40 - 00:09:42]
Is that that big of a splurge, though?
Theresa:
[00:09:42 - 00:09:45]
If you win the lottery, it's like $1,000.
Amand:
[00:09:45 - 00:09:46]
No, it's way more.
Theresa:
[00:09:47 - 00:09:50]
Then it 100% is a Splurge.
Amand:
[00:09:50 - 00:09:51]
I think he would buy.
Theresa:
[00:09:51 - 00:09:53]
I think it's just decorative, too.
Amand:
[00:09:53 - 00:10:09]
Well, I think he would buy it so he could try to put it in the lake and see if it could float. If he was going to do it at all. I think he would buy, like, another house and just fill it with cats. Like a cat commune.
Kip:
[00:10:09 - 00:10:12]
Yeah, but it wouldn't be a house. It'd be, like a big property.
Amand:
[00:10:12 - 00:10:14]
Yeah. It just, like, so many fucking cats.
Theresa:
[00:10:15 - 00:10:16]
Imagine the litter box.
Kip:
[00:10:16 - 00:10:18]
I would save all the cats.
Amand:
[00:10:18 - 00:10:23]
Yeah. The litter box would just be, like a big sandbox in the backyard. Theresa?
Theresa:
[00:10:24 - 00:10:34]
Yeah, absolutely. I have so many questions. As a child, what did you think would be awesome about being an adult, but isn't as awesome as you thought it would be?
Amand:
[00:10:35 - 00:10:48]
Being able to decide what I wanted to do all the time? I really thought that was going to be so great. I can do whatever I want all the time. I can go out and do whatever I'm like. But not without money, bitch.
Amand:
[00:10:50 - 00:10:52]
I literally thought that would be the best thing ever.
Kip:
[00:10:52 - 00:10:59]
Yeah. I think, like, having a job when you're a kid, you think a job is going to be so much fun.
Amand:
[00:10:59 - 00:11:01]
We, like, play jobs.
Kip:
[00:11:01 - 00:11:02]
I know. Yeah.
Amand:
[00:11:02 - 00:11:07]
Like, when I was a kid, I played my job. I thought that was fun. Why did I do that? It's not fun.
Theresa:
[00:11:07 - 00:11:10]
Hey, our jobs are fun. That's how we all met.
Amand:
[00:11:10 - 00:11:12]
Our jobs then were fun. My job now is not fun.
Theresa:
[00:11:13 - 00:11:13]
Yeah.
Kip:
[00:11:13 - 00:11:15]
And our jobs then could not sustain.
Amand:
[00:11:15 - 00:11:17]
No job then paid me $7 an hour.
Kip:
[00:11:17 - 00:11:18]
Exactly.
Theresa:
[00:11:18 - 00:11:19]
Mine is.
Amand:
[00:11:19 - 00:11:19]
Yeah.
Theresa:
[00:11:19 - 00:11:39]
Essentially having money. Like, when I was a kid, I was like, I can't wait till I have money, because then you just spend whatever you want. And then I turned 15, got a job, and then my very first tax return. I was so excited because, you know, you always hear about people getting hundreds on their tax refund, and mine was $11. And I remember just being like, this isn't what life is supposed to be.
Kip:
[00:11:39 - 00:11:43]
Wow. You did your taxes when you were 15 years old?
Theresa:
[00:11:43 - 00:11:45]
15 and a half. Because I could have a job.
Kip:
[00:11:45 - 00:11:55]
Wow. Okay. My last personal one, this is a two parter. Part one. You have to choose only one meal that's going to be, like, your absolute favourite.
Kip:
[00:11:55 - 00:12:08]
You can only have it one time. Best meal of your life. And then the second part is, what's the meal that you're going to pick when you can only have it? When you can only have the one meal every day for the rest of your life?
Theresa:
[00:12:10 - 00:12:15]
Can I go last, please? I need to just cheque. I need to know what these are actually called.
Kip:
[00:12:16 - 00:12:16]
What?
Amand:
[00:12:16 - 00:12:21]
Oh, the meal. What's, like, the one kind of, like, fantasy meal I have?
Kip:
[00:12:21 - 00:12:21]
Yeah.
Amand:
[00:12:22 - 00:12:23]
I don't know.
Kip:
[00:12:23 - 00:12:26]
The classic question is, what would you pick for your last meal?
Amand:
[00:12:26 - 00:12:39]
Okay. It would probably be all the seafood in the world. It'd be like, lobster, shrimp, oysters, mussels. Just like, you know, like those really fancy restaurants where they give you, like, the seafood, like, spread.
Kip:
[00:12:40 - 00:12:42]
Like a symphony of seafood.
Amand:
[00:12:42 - 00:12:57]
Yeah, something like that. It would literally be all the seafood I've seen on Internet shows where people go and they get this. It's just like a seafood tray. Essentially, at really fancy restaurant, that would be what I want as my last meal. If I could only eat one thing for the rest of my life would be shrimp or sushi.
Kip:
[00:12:57 - 00:12:58]
That's kind of the same thing, basically.
Amand:
[00:12:58 - 00:13:01]
I love seafood. Just in case anyone wanted to go.
Kip:
[00:13:01 - 00:13:01]
Wow.
Amand:
[00:13:03 - 00:13:03]
Yeah.
Theresa:
[00:13:04 - 00:13:05]
Tipper.
Kip:
[00:13:06 - 00:13:19]
My final meal would be probably, like, a smorgasbord of italian, classic italian lasagnas, pizzas and pastas.
Theresa:
[00:13:20 - 00:13:20]
Okay.
Kip:
[00:13:20 - 00:13:26]
And then my everyday meal would be macaroni and cheese. Every day.
Amand:
[00:13:27 - 00:13:28]
I love Mac and cheese.
Kip:
[00:13:28 - 00:13:28]
Yeah.
Amand:
[00:13:29 - 00:13:30]
But I would probably die.
Kip:
[00:13:30 - 00:13:32]
I think we all would.
Theresa:
[00:13:32 - 00:13:48]
Okay, so mine would be for breakfast, or the main would be the. What is this? It's this pizza that I heard of a long time ago. And it's $12,000 us.
Kip:
[00:13:48 - 00:13:49]
What?
Amand:
[00:13:49 - 00:13:50]
Yeah.
Theresa:
[00:13:50 - 00:13:58]
It's got mozzarella, lobster, and caviar. It's a pizza. Sounds delicious. And then for dessert, I'd want.
Kip:
[00:14:02 - 00:14:02]
The.
Theresa:
[00:14:02 - 00:14:04]
Golden opulence sundae from serendipity.
Kip:
[00:14:05 - 00:14:06]
What is that?
Theresa:
[00:14:06 - 00:14:22]
It's $1,000. It's tahitian vanilla ice cream with mattyasa vanilla bean covered in 24 carat gold leaf spastlechi chocolates, parisian candied fruits, truffles, caviar, and more. And it's served in a bachelor crystal bowl.
Kip:
[00:14:22 - 00:14:22]
Wow.
Theresa:
[00:14:22 - 00:14:25]
And you have to order it 48 hours in advance.
Kip:
[00:14:25 - 00:14:25]
Wow.
Theresa:
[00:14:25 - 00:14:30]
And if I could eat one thing for the rest of my life. Thanksgiving meal.
Kip:
[00:14:31 - 00:14:34]
That's a good one. That's a good one.
Theresa:
[00:14:34 - 00:14:35]
I love Thanksgiving.
Amand:
[00:14:35 - 00:14:36]
Stuffing.
Theresa:
[00:14:36 - 00:14:44]
Get me the turkey. The stuffing, the mashed potatoes. Luba, cranberry sauce, gravy, and Mac and cheese. And I'm good to go.
Amand:
[00:14:45 - 00:14:45]
Okay.
Theresa:
[00:14:45 - 00:14:47]
It's all carbs with a little bit of meat.
Kip:
[00:14:48 - 00:14:48]
Good.
Amand:
[00:14:48 - 00:14:52]
It's a good question. What's your final get to know you question?
Theresa:
[00:14:53 - 00:14:59]
If you had to disappear and start a whole new life, what would you want your new life to look like? Jesus.
Amand:
[00:14:59 - 00:15:13]
My question after is going to seem really lame after these two, you guys. I would like a simpler life, I think. No, I don't know. I just would like to live in a smaller place. Maybe like New Zealand or somewhere like that.
Amand:
[00:15:14 - 00:15:27]
Just like in a place that's a little know. Those places tend to be more money. Not like it was just funny because Winnipeg is not even that big of a city, but it is. I don't think I would want to live in a big city like this. I don't know.
Theresa:
[00:15:27 - 00:15:28]
That's so weird.
Amand:
[00:15:28 - 00:15:30]
You know what? That's so fucking wrong. I would not. I want to live in New York.
Theresa:
[00:15:30 - 00:15:32]
I was going to say, like, what are you talking about?
Amand:
[00:15:32 - 00:15:34]
I was just like, how do I.
Theresa:
[00:15:34 - 00:15:37]
Fucking film as artsy as possible?
Amand:
[00:15:37 - 00:15:42]
That's not what it was. I literally was like. I'm like, I want to be grounded. And I'm like, Amand. You would do that for five minutes.
Theresa:
[00:15:43 - 00:15:45]
That'd be like your vacation. You'd do like a walkabout.
Amand:
[00:15:45 - 00:15:58]
I want to live in New York. If I could live in a different life, I would live in New York, and I would never have quiet moment in my entire life. And life would race by, and then it would just be so exciting, and I'd never be left alone with my thoughts, ever. That's my dream life.
Kip:
[00:15:59 - 00:16:04]
Wow. Okay. I would also live in another city, probably Las Vegas.
Amand:
[00:16:04 - 00:16:05]
Oh, so cool.
Kip:
[00:16:06 - 00:16:08]
As, like, I don't know, something.
Amand:
[00:16:08 - 00:16:16]
A magician. Teresa. And you can start. You can be Kippy and Teresa, the new siegfried and Roy with Boco.
Theresa:
[00:16:16 - 00:16:41]
Oh, my little anghel. My little baby. I would want to be a hostel owner in Bali and just live super chill vibes and then hire someone to watch it while I would go on vacation in exchange for them staying there for free or something. I feel bad because I do have one more question, so I'm just going to ask it right now.
Kip:
[00:16:41 - 00:16:42]
Okay.
Theresa:
[00:16:42 - 00:16:46]
If you could live in one fictional universe, what would it be?
Amand:
[00:16:46 - 00:16:48]
What does that mean?
Theresa:
[00:16:48 - 00:16:52]
Like, if you wanted to live in a universe where Star Trek was a real thing.
Amand:
[00:16:52 - 00:16:53]
Okay, that's mine.
Theresa:
[00:16:54 - 00:16:58]
Harry Potter. Like a fictional world. What would you live in?
Amand:
[00:16:58 - 00:17:01]
Star Trek or. No Star Trek.
Theresa:
[00:17:01 - 00:17:02]
What was the or?
Kip:
[00:17:02 - 00:17:03]
Yeah, what's or?
Amand:
[00:17:04 - 00:17:05]
I thought maybe about Lord of the Rings.
Kip:
[00:17:05 - 00:17:06]
No, that's terrifying.
Amand:
[00:17:07 - 00:17:14]
But then I was really like the. I really like how green it is.
Kip:
[00:17:14 - 00:17:15]
You're just thinking of New Zealand.
Theresa:
[00:17:15 - 00:17:17]
Yeah, just go there.
Amand:
[00:17:17 - 00:17:17]
Go to.
Theresa:
[00:17:17 - 00:17:21]
Because, you know, the Mount Mordor is not green.
Amand:
[00:17:21 - 00:17:28]
I know. That's why I thought better of it. Star Trek. Cool stuff. I just think some of the technology would freak me out in Star Trek.
Amand:
[00:17:28 - 00:17:29]
That's the only reason I'm thinking I wouldn't like it.
Theresa:
[00:17:30 - 00:17:32]
Yeah, but you would already live there, so it wouldn't freak you out.
Amand:
[00:17:32 - 00:17:36]
And also, they transport babies out of you instead of you giving birth to them, which I think is a beautiful concept.
Kip:
[00:17:44 - 00:17:49]
I don't know, like, maybe like Blade Runner or Brazil or something.
Theresa:
[00:17:50 - 00:17:52]
Blade Runner or Brazil?
Kip:
[00:17:52 - 00:17:54]
Yeah, like Brazil, the movie.
Theresa:
[00:17:54 - 00:17:59]
I didn't know there was a movie called Brazil. That's what I was like. I think that's just a country. Yeah, no. Okay, fair enough.
Kip:
[00:17:59 - 00:18:02]
I don't know what that means, but kind of dystopian.
Theresa:
[00:18:02 - 00:18:04]
Okay. Pokemon.
Kip:
[00:18:06 - 00:18:07]
That's probably a cute one.
Theresa:
[00:18:07 - 00:18:17]
I would really like to have a dragonite as my best friend who would fly me places and protect me. What's your final question?
Amand:
[00:18:17 - 00:18:22]
Well, it's lame in comparison. You guys have been asking these, like, philosophical questions. Mine is so lame.
Kip:
[00:18:22 - 00:18:23]
Nothing philosophical about what food you want.
Theresa:
[00:18:23 - 00:18:26]
To eat and what karaoke song.
Amand:
[00:18:26 - 00:18:27]
That was my question.
Theresa:
[00:18:30 - 00:18:33]
I asked what fictional universe you want to live in. Right.
Amand:
[00:18:34 - 00:18:53]
Yeah, that's philosophical. So mine was going to be, what's your favourite emoji to use. But I want to talk about this because this is actually something I struggle with. Mine is still that half or like that. Like, you guys are awful to me, first of all.
Amand:
[00:18:53 - 00:18:54]
But that.
Theresa:
[00:18:55 - 00:18:57]
What a deep conversation to have about emojis.
Kip:
[00:18:57 - 00:18:58]
That's the emoji I use.
Amand:
[00:18:58 - 00:19:04]
You have sideways, like, laughing cry face that apparently that's super chewy now.
Kip:
[00:19:04 - 00:19:06]
Can you pull it up? I don't know.
Amand:
[00:19:06 - 00:19:07]
Oh, my God. It's. Apparently.
Kip:
[00:19:07 - 00:19:10]
I hate how emojis can be in or out of style.
Amand:
[00:19:10 - 00:19:20]
No, they're awful. And the thing is, that sucks is that I was told that my side part amand my emoji were both making me look, like, older than I am. This one. Your side part.
Kip:
[00:19:20 - 00:19:22]
Oh, my God. I use that all the time.
Amand:
[00:19:22 - 00:19:23]
I know this chewy.
Kip:
[00:19:23 - 00:19:24]
I don't know what that. Which one?
Amand:
[00:19:24 - 00:19:33]
The little side laughing, crying thing. So that and the side part are apparently out, so I had to repart my fucking hair.
Theresa:
[00:19:33 - 00:19:35]
You still part your hair on the side?
Amand:
[00:19:35 - 00:19:38]
Only when I pin back part of it. When I wear it down. I was in the middle.
Theresa:
[00:19:38 - 00:19:40]
It's not. It's still on the side right now.
Amand:
[00:19:40 - 00:19:40]
It's terrible.
Theresa:
[00:19:41 - 00:19:45]
But no, your hair just parts to the side. You're a millennial. Just get with it.
Amand:
[00:19:45 - 00:19:48]
I don't want to be a millennial anymore.
Theresa:
[00:19:48 - 00:19:50]
You want to be one of the agenda. You want to be younger.
Kip:
[00:19:50 - 00:19:52]
No, you don't. Hess, we do not like the.
Theresa:
[00:19:52 - 00:20:02]
Yeah, like, come on. I don't know that I could keep up with all the trends and all. I don't think I could be, like, a young person right now. It's too much.
Kip:
[00:20:02 - 00:20:06]
Okay, this is my favourite emoji. This one.
Amand:
[00:20:06 - 00:20:08]
What do you call, like, the teeth one? Yeah.
Theresa:
[00:20:08 - 00:20:09]
Like this?
Kip:
[00:20:10 - 00:20:10]
Yeah.
Theresa:
[00:20:10 - 00:20:13]
It's got, like, a straight line mouth with teeth.
Amand:
[00:20:15 - 00:20:18]
Yeah. No, I agree. I've never seen you use that ever.
Kip:
[00:20:18 - 00:20:20]
I don't use emojis very often.
Amand:
[00:20:20 - 00:20:21]
What's your favourite emoji?
Theresa:
[00:20:21 - 00:20:25]
Mine is the two eyes that are, like, looking to the side.
Kip:
[00:20:25 - 00:20:26]
You use that one a lot?
Theresa:
[00:20:26 - 00:20:38]
I do use that a lot, yeah. If I want something, I'll be like, oh, man, could really use a cheeseburger right now. Or if it's like a hint hint. Yeah, like, hint hint, hint hint, wink, wink, nudge, nudge. Okay.
Theresa:
[00:20:38 - 00:20:42]
The prayer hands one. Is it prayer hands or is it clapping hands? Is that what it was?
Amand:
[00:20:42 - 00:20:47]
I think it's like prayer hands, but apparently it's a high five. It's two hands high fiving.
Kip:
[00:20:47 - 00:20:51]
Yeah, I've heard that. It's high five. But I always think of it as, like, please.
Amand:
[00:20:51 - 00:20:53]
Me too. Or like, it's gratitude.
Kip:
[00:20:53 - 00:20:55]
Yeah, I agree.
Theresa:
[00:20:55 - 00:20:59]
Oh, for gratitude, I usually use the bowing one.
Amand:
[00:20:59 - 00:21:02]
Is that a bowing? See, I don't know what these.
Kip:
[00:21:02 - 00:21:02]
No, it's bowing.
Amand:
[00:21:03 - 00:21:06]
That's why I stick with the really easy ones that are apparently chewy.
Theresa:
[00:21:06 - 00:21:08]
I need you to stop saying chewy, please.
Kip:
[00:21:08 - 00:21:10]
Is that chewy?
Theresa:
[00:21:11 - 00:21:12]
Sound like an old person trying.
Amand:
[00:21:12 - 00:21:14]
That might be my favourite thing to do as an old person.
Theresa:
[00:21:14 - 00:21:16]
She's like, I'm choogy now.
Amand:
[00:21:18 - 00:21:24]
All right, well, that was fun. I don't know if that actually helped anyone get to know us, but that's.
Kip:
[00:21:24 - 00:21:26]
You know what? I got to know us.
Amand:
[00:21:26 - 00:21:56]
Yeah, me too. Okay, so let's move on to some questions. The true purpose of the ask me anything, which is questions about the podcast and us doing the podcast and lost and our feelings on all of that. So we've got some questions from fans, but let's start with that. So, the first question I got from a fan was, she wanted to know how much of this is edited out when we record versus the final product, how much editing goes into it.
Amand:
[00:21:56 - 00:22:10]
So I'm going to defer to our editor, and that's another thing to get to know us bit. Kip is the person who runs a lot of the behind the scenes stuff. He does all the editing. He puts the podcasts up. He does all that stuff.
Amand:
[00:22:10 - 00:22:16]
So, first of all, thank you, Kip, for always doing all that. And what kind of editing goes into.
Kip:
[00:22:19 - 00:22:38]
Know? It depends, because sometimes we'll be pretty on track, and there might be just, like, a few coughs and edit this out because we got to talk about something else real quick. But maybe, like, 510 minutes worth of edits out. Like, that's probably a good episode.
Theresa:
[00:22:41 - 00:22:42]
Made weird notes.
Kip:
[00:22:42 - 00:22:45]
For example, Teresa just swallowed. That's got to go. That's got to go.
Amand:
[00:22:45 - 00:22:46]
It's got to go.
Theresa:
[00:22:46 - 00:22:49]
It was a loud swallow, too, because then I got embarrassed and then, like.
Kip:
[00:22:49 - 00:23:02]
Going, that's also got to go. But it's actually going to stay in as an example. Yeah, but it's got to go. No, but then there are some episodes where there are a lot of edits.
Amand:
[00:23:02 - 00:23:03]
It's like the spider one.
Kip:
[00:23:03 - 00:23:06]
Oh, my God. Once the spider attacked us.
Theresa:
[00:23:06 - 00:23:07]
Yeah.
Kip:
[00:23:07 - 00:23:08]
Physically attacked us.
Theresa:
[00:23:08 - 00:23:13]
I didn't even know there was a spider. I just heard screaming and that I joined dibs.
Kip:
[00:23:15 - 00:23:38]
We learned a lot about ourselves that time. I mean, you know what? What I end up doing is I put a lot of the funny outtakes and ridiculous outtakes on our Patreon because there are just some really silly things that we do and say that just obviously don't flow with the episode. So we cut it out of the episode, but they're just sort of hilarious. For instance, the spider attack is on our Patreon.
Kip:
[00:23:38 - 00:24:07]
So if you want to hear us screaming and Amanda thinking the house is on fire, go to our Patreon and you can hear all of our mean. The editing takes a good chunk of time, like, it takes probably, like when all is said and done, a few hours per episode. But it's certainly getting easier the more I'm used to it. Right. I think when we first started, it took me, like, a day to do a full episode because I didn't really know what to do.
Kip:
[00:24:07 - 00:24:09]
But now I know, so it doesn't take very long at all.
Amand:
[00:24:10 - 00:24:11]
Awesome.
Theresa:
[00:24:11 - 00:24:18]
Thanks, Kipper. What's the most you've ever had to cut out of an episode? And do you know which episode?
Kip:
[00:24:18 - 00:24:34]
No, I don't know. I can't remember. But I think there's another one I thought was actually pretty hilarious, was Teresa. I'm trying to find it here. There's a lot of harmonising that we try to do.
Kip:
[00:24:36 - 00:24:39]
Amanda, trying to figure out what a tongue twister is.
Amand:
[00:24:40 - 00:24:45]
I know what a tongue twister is. I meant warm up the blanket.
Kip:
[00:24:45 - 00:24:48]
That was a long one. The blanket.
Theresa:
[00:24:48 - 00:24:49]
Oh, that was rude.
Amand:
[00:24:50 - 00:24:52]
What? What was it?
Theresa:
[00:24:52 - 00:24:56]
I think I was getting a blanket for both of you.
Amand:
[00:24:56 - 00:24:57]
For both of us.
Theresa:
[00:24:57 - 00:24:58]
And then you were like, I'm going.
Kip:
[00:24:58 - 00:25:00]
For yourself, you stupid bitch.
Amand:
[00:25:00 - 00:25:00]
Yeah.
Theresa:
[00:25:00 - 00:25:03]
And then I went to go get you one. She's like, I don't need it.
Kip:
[00:25:03 - 00:25:05]
And then you were like, no, I do need it and I'm cool.
Amand:
[00:25:05 - 00:25:25]
I'm glad this has come back around to the important topic. Another question. This is going to be controversial, and we can't get too much into it, but I think this is the controversial question that anyone who likes lost or watches lost wants to know about. People who are doing a podcast about lost, and we're going to try to keep it spoiler free. We have to.
Amand:
[00:25:25 - 00:25:34]
So we're going to keep it simple. But the question is, did we like the ending of lost? Kip?
Kip:
[00:25:34 - 00:25:38]
Yes. Are we one wording it?
Amand:
[00:25:38 - 00:25:40]
Whatever you feel comfortable saying about it.
Kip:
[00:25:40 - 00:25:41]
Yeah, I loved it.
Amand:
[00:25:41 - 00:25:41]
Yeah.
Theresa:
[00:25:41 - 00:25:44]
Are we talking about the final season or, like, the last episode?
Amand:
[00:25:44 - 00:25:48]
The last episode. Did you like the ending? Yeah.
Theresa:
[00:25:48 - 00:25:54]
I think that people who don't didn't get it. So there's that.
Amand:
[00:25:54 - 00:26:02]
There you go. I also liked it. One might say I loved it. One might say I laid in bed for two days staring at the ceiling about it. And I agree with Teresa.
Amand:
[00:26:02 - 00:26:10]
If you didn't like it, come talk to me after season six because you're going to need to listen to our podcast about it because you didn't understand it.
Theresa:
[00:26:10 - 00:26:19]
I will say there are parts of season six that I did not like, but that doesn't affect my overall opinion of the show or its ending.
Kip:
[00:26:19 - 00:26:34]
No, the ending was great. I think it's become one of those things where even people who have no idea, it's just sort of entered the ether of pop culture of like, oh, well, the lost botched its ending.
Amand:
[00:26:34 - 00:26:39]
It's often on lists of shows that were so good until the ending, even.
Kip:
[00:26:39 - 00:26:55]
Though I think critically it was very well regarded as an ending. I'd say the majority of fans liked the ending, but there was just, I think, a loud minority, there always is, of people who hated the ending, and then that sort of became the running theme.
Theresa:
[00:26:55 - 00:27:10]
I would love to do a debate with people who like one opinion of the ending, and that'd be great. How I see the ending, because in some of the lists that I've read, their reasoning is very flawed. It's very flawed.
Kip:
[00:27:10 - 00:27:11]
I know.
Amand:
[00:27:11 - 00:27:32]
That's the thing. That's why it's a question people want to know, because it is like something that's synonymous with watching the show and it divided a lot of people. Right. So for those who are interested to know that who've watched the show already, three of us like the ending. All right, so another question, and I'm not sure if everyone will have an opinion on this.
Amand:
[00:27:32 - 00:27:54]
So things that are synonymous with Voss building on that, the ending being controversial, another thing, creator or producers team, et cetera, Damon Lindelof, Carlton Q's very well respected, critically acclaimed producers. What, if anything, is your favourite non lost Damon Lindelof or Carlton Cuse project?
Kip:
[00:27:54 - 00:27:59]
Just give me one. Google Carlton.
Amand:
[00:27:59 - 00:28:06]
Well, I'll start because mine is very easy. I love the show, the leftovers. That was a Damon Lindelof product.
Kip:
[00:28:06 - 00:28:07]
Never seen it.
Amand:
[00:28:07 - 00:28:24]
You would love it. I am very surprised to hear that you haven't seen it. Three seasons. Justin Thoreau, very cool premise, very well executed, amazing show. Exactly what you would expect from David Lindelof.
Kip:
[00:28:25 - 00:28:32]
I think the only really thing that I've watched is Jack Ryan Carlton Qs.
Amand:
[00:28:32 - 00:28:44]
I have not seen that, which I like. I have seen Damon Lindelof, product of the Leftovers. And watchmen. And Watchmen is really good, obviously, but a little bit much for me personally.
Kip:
[00:28:44 - 00:28:52]
I tried to watch colony, okay. But I don't think I finished it. That had Sawyer in it.
Amand:
[00:28:53 - 00:29:03]
I don't think anyone finished it. I think it was cancelled quite quickly. They actually haven't done as much, I think, as people might think they have. Teresa, do you have a product?
Theresa:
[00:29:03 - 00:29:05]
I really liked Star Trek.
Amand:
[00:29:05 - 00:29:06]
Oh, the movie.
Theresa:
[00:29:06 - 00:29:07]
Yes.
Amand:
[00:29:07 - 00:29:08]
I mean, that should probably be my favourite.
Kip:
[00:29:08 - 00:29:10]
I'm not JJ.
Amand:
[00:29:10 - 00:29:12]
Damon Lidloff's a producer.
Kip:
[00:29:12 - 00:29:13]
Oh, cool.
Amand:
[00:29:13 - 00:29:13]
Yeah.
Theresa:
[00:29:13 - 00:29:14]
Yes, I did.
Kip:
[00:29:15 - 00:29:18]
Did you actually like that, Teresa? I didn't know you were a Star Trek fan.
Theresa:
[00:29:18 - 00:29:20]
I'm like, I enjoyed the movie.
Amand:
[00:29:20 - 00:29:22]
What were you about to say? I'm not.
Theresa:
[00:29:22 - 00:29:31]
No, I was going to say I'm not like a. Like, I've never watched the show other than Voyager. Amanda made me watch Voyager, and I stopped after a certain season.
Amand:
[00:29:31 - 00:29:37]
Voyager. Important question I'll answer for all of us. What's the best Star Trek? The answer is Voyager.
Theresa:
[00:29:37 - 00:29:41]
Continue. I will not answer that question as I have only seen a few seasons of Voyager.
Kip:
[00:29:41 - 00:29:43]
And it's really. I think it is the best.
Theresa:
[00:29:43 - 00:29:46]
I think they ruined know.
Amand:
[00:29:46 - 00:29:47]
Okay.
Theresa:
[00:29:47 - 00:29:50]
Anyway, onward and upward.
Amand:
[00:29:52 - 00:29:54]
He also wrote Star Trek, I should say.
Kip:
[00:29:54 - 00:29:56]
Oh, yeah.
Theresa:
[00:29:56 - 00:29:57]
I like the first one.
Kip:
[00:29:58 - 00:30:00]
All right, Teresa, you have any questions?
Theresa:
[00:30:00 - 00:30:15]
Yeah. So one of the questions from a listener was, spill the tea. What do you guys drink while you're recording? I think we hear a lot of swallows and pores, and it's usually peppermint tea.
Amand:
[00:30:15 - 00:30:20]
But on that last day of recording, for the final episodes, we were doing shots.
Kip:
[00:30:20 - 00:30:24]
We were sometimes, Teresa and I will have a beer.
Theresa:
[00:30:24 - 00:30:35]
Yeah. The reason that it's predominantly tea now is because in the beginning, we would have carbonate, like bubblies and sparkling waters.
Amand:
[00:30:36 - 00:30:38]
And then there was much more for kitchen.
Theresa:
[00:30:40 - 00:30:44]
A lot of going. Excuse me. Or like burps.
Kip:
[00:30:46 - 00:30:47]
Yeah. The key has helped.
Amand:
[00:30:49 - 00:30:58]
This is another kind of more technical question, but someone asked me to ask the crew, who does the majority of the social media?
Theresa:
[00:30:58 - 00:30:59]
Kip and I.
Amand:
[00:30:59 - 00:31:07]
Yes. So that was always kind of understood that I was really here just to be a mouthpiece. I'm not good at the beans.
Theresa:
[00:31:08 - 00:31:09]
She really wants to keep it going.
Amand:
[00:31:10 - 00:31:14]
That being said, it was my idea to do the post about the four random things.
Theresa:
[00:31:14 - 00:31:15]
She always brings that up.
Amand:
[00:31:15 - 00:31:18]
The one post, I did, one post.
Theresa:
[00:31:18 - 00:31:26]
She'S like, that was my idea because it was a trend. And now that I'm trying to be Gen Z, it is the trend. We can get on it.
Amand:
[00:31:26 - 00:31:39]
We're canadian. Anyway, the answer is, like, everything. I do very little around here, other than talk, kind of my thing. I do everywhere. I don't really contribute to society as much as I talk a lot.
Kip:
[00:31:39 - 00:31:41]
Hey, it's contribution nonetheless.
Theresa:
[00:31:41 - 00:31:42]
Exactly.
Amand:
[00:31:42 - 00:31:50]
But Kip does all the editing. Kip does all that stuff. Teresa and Kip do the social media. They do all our marketing. They're in charge of the Patreon.
Amand:
[00:31:51 - 00:31:54]
You sometimes watch the episode and show up and talk about it.
Theresa:
[00:31:54 - 00:31:56]
She dipped while she.
Kip:
[00:31:56 - 00:31:58]
When she was saying she did do a dip.
Amand:
[00:31:59 - 00:32:14]
Anyway. Okay, this is another question that's rude. Okay. It's rude because I don't like being called out, but someone wanted to know how I was doing with Sawyer's books.
Theresa:
[00:32:14 - 00:32:15]
Oh, that was me.
Kip:
[00:32:16 - 00:32:19]
Well, okay, but how are you doing?
Amand:
[00:32:19 - 00:32:22]
I have read two pages of ship down. I have read the first.
Theresa:
[00:32:22 - 00:32:23]
No, you haven't.
Amand:
[00:32:23 - 00:32:28]
I didn't read my copy. Did you get the copy store and I opened it for it?
Kip:
[00:32:28 - 00:32:29]
Yeah.
Theresa:
[00:32:29 - 00:32:30]
Do you know why?
Kip:
[00:32:32 - 00:32:36]
You leafed through at a bookstore?
Amand:
[00:32:36 - 00:32:37]
No. You guys. I'm going to get on it, though.
Theresa:
[00:32:37 - 00:32:40]
Because that's what you've been saying since the pod started.
Kip:
[00:32:40 - 00:32:41]
Did you say you're getting what?
Amand:
[00:32:41 - 00:32:46]
I'm going to get on it? Now that I know there's more to. I was like, I don't know what else he's. Why would you just read book three?
Theresa:
[00:32:47 - 00:32:47]
Why would you even.
Amand:
[00:32:47 - 00:32:48]
Free now?
Theresa:
[00:32:48 - 00:32:49]
Bring it up.
Amand:
[00:32:49 - 00:32:56]
I'm going to do it, and I'm going to post my review to the Patreon, as promised. So those are all the questions I got. Do you have more questions?
Theresa:
[00:32:57 - 00:33:03]
Yes, I have a question from someone. Which character do you most identify with after season one?
Kip:
[00:33:03 - 00:33:04]
Oh, that's a great question.
Amand:
[00:33:05 - 00:33:08]
Most identify with. Most identify with.
Theresa:
[00:33:08 - 00:33:10]
Don't say Jack hess, for God's sake.
Amand:
[00:33:10 - 00:33:12]
It's probably Jack.
Kip:
[00:33:12 - 00:33:14]
But that makes sense, though.
Theresa:
[00:33:14 - 00:33:16]
That's because she thinks she's the leader.
Kip:
[00:33:16 - 00:33:17]
Yeah, so does.
Amand:
[00:33:21 - 00:33:27]
Sorry, I do not relate to, you know who. She's a sociopath.
Theresa:
[00:33:27 - 00:33:28]
Kate.
Amand:
[00:33:28 - 00:33:33]
Yeah, actually, that's rude.
Theresa:
[00:33:33 - 00:33:35]
No, it kind of makes sense.
Amand:
[00:33:35 - 00:33:36]
In what way?
Kip:
[00:33:36 - 00:33:37]
Yeah.
Theresa:
[00:33:37 - 00:33:45]
You know, like, Kate is like, okay, I need you to not get, like. Honestly, I promise this is not an insult.
Amand:
[00:33:45 - 00:33:47]
Okay. When you have.
Theresa:
[00:33:48 - 00:34:12]
It's just because you do tend to. To, like, insert yourself into every situation. Jack does that, too. Yeah, but you can't take the lead in every situation, whereas you sometimes will just be there to insert yourself into issues that arise that don't involve you. And you're also a great climber.
Amand:
[00:34:12 - 00:34:15]
I'm not a great climber. No, I can't climb at all.
Kip:
[00:34:15 - 00:34:16]
Do you pick?
Amand:
[00:34:16 - 00:34:17]
No.
Kip:
[00:34:18 - 00:34:18]
Cl.
Amand:
[00:34:18 - 00:34:20]
I have no survival skills.
Theresa:
[00:34:20 - 00:34:21]
So then you're not Kate?
Kip:
[00:34:22 - 00:34:23]
Maybe. No. I don't see.
Amand:
[00:34:24 - 00:34:30]
So, by the way, it was, who do you feel you relate to? Not the fucking group chat about it.
Theresa:
[00:34:30 - 00:34:31]
Kate. Sorry.
Kip:
[00:34:33 - 00:34:35]
You promised you wouldn't get mad.
Theresa:
[00:34:36 - 00:34:41]
Look at her body language. She's got her hands behind her back. She's sitting in a chair with her hands behind her back.
Amand:
[00:34:41 - 00:34:59]
No, I'm not. I mean, I am. There's no reason for it. Bowing now she's snorting. You are bowing right now.
Amand:
[00:35:09 - 00:35:12]
I don't see it that way. It's more like a shake, I guess.
Kip:
[00:35:12 - 00:35:16]
A very slow moving shake.
Amand:
[00:35:17 - 00:35:23]
Anyway. Maybe Jack. Because it's hard. I don't know. Maybe Claire.
Amand:
[00:35:23 - 00:35:24]
I don't know.
Theresa:
[00:35:25 - 00:35:26]
No. Jack does make sense, honestly.
Amand:
[00:35:26 - 00:35:34]
Yeah. Jack is the person I relate to the most. And trying to do the right thing, but fucking it up a lot. I relate to that a lot.
Theresa:
[00:35:34 - 00:35:35]
Boone, though.
Amand:
[00:35:35 - 00:35:44]
Well, not that like, Jack. And he's wishy washy on some things, and he does want to be the leader some days and then gets mad when he's not. Yeah.
Theresa:
[00:35:44 - 00:35:45]
No, honest.
Amand:
[00:35:45 - 00:35:56]
Kind of like, I'll be honest with the negative aspects of. It's like. It sounds great on the face of be. Like, I relate to the star and leader, but it's a lot of his negative traits that I relate to. Like, this whole, like, I would need to be in charge.
Amand:
[00:35:56 - 00:36:00]
I need to be in control until he doesn't want to be, and then he's mad that everyone expects him to be. That's me.
Theresa:
[00:36:01 - 00:36:07]
Absolutely. You don't have to convince me, Hess. I was mostly kidding, to be honest. Just to. Because you hate Kate.
Amand:
[00:36:07 - 00:36:08]
Amand I am kind of.
Theresa:
[00:36:09 - 00:36:10]
You hate Kate so much.
Amand:
[00:36:10 - 00:36:11]
I do. Amand.
Kip:
[00:36:11 - 00:36:11]
You're what?
Amand:
[00:36:11 - 00:36:18]
Amand I kind of am. Like, I do insert myself, and I want to help. I want to be in control. That's very clear. I love helping people.
Amand:
[00:36:18 - 00:36:39]
He likes to help, even though he doesn't always. The only thing I don't relate to with Jack is I probably wouldn't have moved to the caves. I like the idea on the beach. The caves would be too scary to me, I think, and a little bit too confined and a little too scary. Yeah.
Amand:
[00:36:40 - 00:36:42]
What about you guys?
Kip:
[00:36:43 - 00:36:45]
I don't know.
Theresa:
[00:36:45 - 00:36:50]
It's hard. I'd probably say hurley.
Amand:
[00:36:51 - 00:36:51]
Really? Why?
Theresa:
[00:36:52 - 00:37:15]
Yeah. I feel like I wouldn't be that involved in anything, but I'd try to find a way to make things fun for people. I think I would eventually have come up with something, like some kind of form of entertainment, because I know at one of my jobs. When things were really serious, I always did a lot of, like, fun thing. I would always organise, like, fun things for the group and stuff like that.
Theresa:
[00:37:15 - 00:37:25]
But I wouldn't be, like, that involved in, like, other stuff, like, the main things. I would just kind of be, like, doing my own thing. Or just like, being just, like, the cute sidekick.
Amand:
[00:37:26 - 00:37:27]
That's fair.
Theresa:
[00:37:28 - 00:37:47]
Or son. Not with the relationship issues, but maybe the gardening and the, like. I feel like I could be helpful if someone had to do something like medical. I know stuff, but I would never be the one to take the lead on stuff.
Amand:
[00:37:47 - 00:37:54]
That's true. That is very you. And you don't like when people try to force you to do the things. Yeah, that's her.
Theresa:
[00:37:54 - 00:37:59]
So like a sun Hurley hybrid hun, if you will.
Kip:
[00:38:00 - 00:38:01]
Or surly.
Amand:
[00:38:02 - 00:38:03]
I like Surly.
Theresa:
[00:38:05 - 00:38:06]
Fine.
Amand:
[00:38:06 - 00:38:07]
What about you, Kippy?
Kip:
[00:38:07 - 00:38:11]
I don't know. Probably Hurley, too. Connected with Hurley.
Amand:
[00:38:12 - 00:38:15]
I really resonate when his fucking walkman dies.
Kip:
[00:38:15 - 00:38:21]
I don't know who I would associate with her or. What was the question?
Theresa:
[00:38:22 - 00:38:22]
You relate to?
Kip:
[00:38:22 - 00:38:25]
Relate to. I don't know who I would relate to, to be honest.
Amand:
[00:38:26 - 00:38:28]
We should do this after every season.
Kip:
[00:38:30 - 00:38:33]
Do you think I would relate to someone else?
Amand:
[00:38:33 - 00:38:35]
No. I could see Hurley.
Theresa:
[00:38:35 - 00:38:36]
Yeah, me too.
Amand:
[00:38:37 - 00:38:37]
For sure.
Theresa:
[00:38:37 - 00:38:41]
And, like, a little bit of. John Locke. Just a sprinkle.
Kip:
[00:38:41 - 00:38:42]
No. No John Locke.
Theresa:
[00:38:42 - 00:38:43]
Just a sprinkle.
Kip:
[00:38:44 - 00:38:46]
Believing in something. I don't believe in anything.
Theresa:
[00:38:46 - 00:38:53]
No, it's not the believing part. It's the quiet wisdom about you they have sometimes. That's.
Kip:
[00:38:53 - 00:38:56]
I'll take it. Good question.
Theresa:
[00:38:56 - 00:39:03]
Thank you, listener. Okay. One of the questions is, if you were on the island, would you campaign for beach or.
Amand:
[00:39:03 - 00:39:13]
Oh, interesting. That's a great question. As I said, that's the one thing I probably would want to stay on the beach. But you know what? I think I've said in the past that I get the cave thing, too.
Amand:
[00:39:13 - 00:39:28]
The thing is, it's hard because there's fresh water there, and obviously the number one thing they need is water. But also you could go get it. I don't know. I kind of see why they want to stay on the beach, because they are probably more likely to get rescued there. And at this point, that's still a possibility to them.
Amand:
[00:39:29 - 00:39:29]
Right.
Kip:
[00:39:31 - 00:39:50]
I go back to. I don't know why it had to be either or. I just don't know why it had to be. You're either with us or against us kind of situation. I know that they kind of came to terms with it at the end, but it was just more like one of those things, like, why do you have to commit to the beach or commit to cave?
Kip:
[00:39:50 - 00:39:54]
Why can you say, oh, I'm going to stay at the beach for a few nights and then I'm going to go to the cave for a few nights.
Amand:
[00:39:54 - 00:39:54]
Yeah.
Kip:
[00:39:54 - 00:39:57]
They made it so like, because with.
Amand:
[00:39:57 - 00:39:59]
Both those men, it's all or nothing. That's true.
Theresa:
[00:39:59 - 00:39:59]
That's the problem.
Kip:
[00:40:00 - 00:40:08]
It. What's our task? What's our island? Physical island? How are we contributing to the island?
Amand:
[00:40:10 - 00:40:18]
I'm not sure I actually have any marketable skills to contribute. I'm being entirely honest when I say that I could go through stuff from the plane and organise it.
Theresa:
[00:40:18 - 00:40:21]
Maybe that only lasts like a little bit of time. What are you going to do after?
Amand:
[00:40:21 - 00:40:22]
I know.
Kip:
[00:40:24 - 00:40:25]
You could gather.
Amand:
[00:40:25 - 00:40:28]
I did recently learn how to build a killer fire.
Kip:
[00:40:28 - 00:40:34]
The garden. You can help with the garden. No, to be a farmer. That's true. Amand doesn't want to be a farmer.
Amand:
[00:40:34 - 00:40:35]
I do. I really want it.
Theresa:
[00:40:35 - 00:40:38]
They don't have something. They don't have like the John Deere tractors.
Amand:
[00:40:38 - 00:40:41]
I wanted to till. Is there anything to till on the.
Kip:
[00:40:41 - 00:40:42]
Yeah, there's a garden you could till.
Amand:
[00:40:42 - 00:40:43]
I'm going to till the garden.
Kip:
[00:40:43 - 00:40:44]
Yeah.
Theresa:
[00:40:44 - 00:40:45]
Who's going to make the garden?
Amand:
[00:40:45 - 00:40:51]
You are. Thank you. We're helping. Sun is still there.
Theresa:
[00:40:51 - 00:40:55]
Yeah. Sun will have to. I mean, I think son likes to do it herself. I don't know that she's going to be like.
Amand:
[00:40:57 - 00:40:59]
I don't think she'd want to mess up her garden.
Kip:
[00:41:00 - 00:41:02]
I think I would gather wood.
Amand:
[00:41:02 - 00:41:03]
Oh, okay.
Kip:
[00:41:03 - 00:41:08]
Just gather wood all day long for fires. What? You would chop it and chop and chop.
Theresa:
[00:41:08 - 00:41:09]
Nice.
Kip:
[00:41:09 - 00:41:10]
Gather and chop.
Theresa:
[00:41:10 - 00:41:30]
I could probably cook pretty good at like randomly whipping things together. Yeah. And be like the cruise ship fun coordinator. Hurley and I would make up some killer games, maybe good at cooking. I'm sure we could find something to season the things.
Kip:
[00:41:31 - 00:41:32]
What would I eat? I'm a vegetarian.
Amand:
[00:41:32 - 00:41:34]
There's lots of fruit, vegetables.
Kip:
[00:41:34 - 00:41:36]
You can eat just fruit and vegetables?
Amand:
[00:41:36 - 00:41:37]
What? Vegetables?
Kip:
[00:41:37 - 00:41:41]
Yeah. Besides the ones that sun's growing, because that's going to take some time.
Amand:
[00:41:43 - 00:41:44]
Are there any wild vegetables?
Kip:
[00:41:44 - 00:41:46]
There's probably some roots.
Theresa:
[00:41:46 - 00:41:48]
Probably. Yeah. Mushrooms. Some fungi.
Kip:
[00:41:48 - 00:41:49]
I do not like fungi.
Theresa:
[00:41:50 - 00:41:51]
Some moss.
Amand:
[00:41:51 - 00:41:53]
Oh, God, that sounds delicious.
Theresa:
[00:41:53 - 00:41:56]
You can eat some moss. I could make you like a little roll.
Kip:
[00:41:56 - 00:41:57]
Moss roll?
Theresa:
[00:41:57 - 00:41:58]
Yeah, a little moss roll.
Kip:
[00:42:02 - 00:42:18]
So we also got this question sent to our email. Let's getlosspod@gmail.com from a listener. This is a really good question. Okay. If Lost was released today on a current streaming service, what changes would be made to fit it into the more common ten episode season?
Kip:
[00:42:19 - 00:42:32]
Would any characters or plotlines be dropped? Do you think the pacing would be altered? Could it even survive in this climate of cancelled shows after one season? That's a good question.
Amand:
[00:42:32 - 00:42:49]
That is a good question. It's funny because I actually think if Lost hadn't already been made, it would have been made for a streaming service or one of the. Or like HBO Max. Well, I guess HBO Max is a streaming service, you know what I mean? Or HBO.
Amand:
[00:42:49 - 00:43:01]
Or like a cable network. I'm not sure in 2023 it would go on like a network television show or network, but I do think it would have to change a bit.
Kip:
[00:43:01 - 00:43:24]
Well, Amand. It's funny, I think we've mentioned this before, how recently in the news, or maybe it was last year, Carlton Cuse or Damon Lindelof, one of them went off to say they wish it could have been on the streaming service and they could have done just the ten episodes per season and they would have been able to tell the story in a much more cohesive way. Is, I think, what they said something along those lines.
Amand:
[00:43:24 - 00:44:05]
Well, it's hard. We don't want to spoil anything. But seasons three, four and five, I think at least four, they have said publicly, like Damon Lindelof and Carlton Hughes have said that there was a lot of filler. And I think just keeping it to this season alone, you can see that there's some things that, yes, everything matters and everything has some sort of payoff, but oftentimes the payoff is small, like Charlie's flashback episode, where essentially the only thing we learn is right at the end about his relationship with that woman or whatever. I think a lot of that kind of is filler.
Amand:
[00:44:05 - 00:44:13]
I think that we learn a lot of stuff from the flashbacks, but we could probably. I think one per character per season would also work well.
Kip:
[00:44:13 - 00:44:21]
And that's interesting because the cast arguably is more than ten, like who they do flashbacks for.
Amand:
[00:44:21 - 00:44:22]
Right.
Kip:
[00:44:22 - 00:44:36]
So would that even work then? Would they do think going into the further in the question about pacing, would that mean they wouldn't be able to dedicate an entire episode to one flashback and they might have to do multiple, which would change the feel of the show almost completely.
Amand:
[00:44:37 - 00:44:39]
Or they do cut down a little bit on characters.
Kip:
[00:44:39 - 00:44:40]
Yeah, that's true.
Amand:
[00:44:40 - 00:44:52]
I mean, this is a huge cast and it's important because of what it is. But I also think that they maybe could cut down or maybe not everyone would have flashbacks then, right?
Kip:
[00:44:53 - 00:44:54]
Yeah. What do you think Teresa?
Theresa:
[00:44:56 - 00:45:27]
I think it would do well on a streaming. We, like, you guys talked like there's a lot of those filler episodes that you could really just do without in terms of flashbacks, though, I mean, we have Walton and Michael. They're just essentially together. And then you could do, like, half an episode devoted to Boone and, like, half to, like, they don't really need their own episodes by themselves, really. I think it would work.
Amand:
[00:45:27 - 00:45:45]
I think the flashbacks are so integral to the way the story is told and lost, and so much of what we need later from the show comes from the flashbacks. I do think that they would have to be kind of done in the same way, but, yeah, I don't know.
Kip:
[00:45:46 - 00:46:11]
Well, and I mean, I would hate to see some of the quote unquote filler episodes be lost because they just become part of the lore of lost and we wouldn't have the same. Theresa knows what I'm talking about. We wouldn't have the same show. I mean, that's obvious. It would be very different in the ten episode format of streaming.
Kip:
[00:46:12 - 00:46:18]
So all I can say is I would not want to lose out on. And, spoiler alert, razzle dazzle.
Theresa:
[00:46:18 - 00:46:20]
That's what I was thinking about entirely.
Amand:
[00:46:20 - 00:46:36]
I do think that it would be like we talked about how hard it is to go from May to September, but some of these streaming services, it's years between seasons. That would be hard, too. I think what would be good is that it could be grittier.
Kip:
[00:46:37 - 00:46:37]
Yeah.
Amand:
[00:46:37 - 00:47:22]
And the storytelling could almost be even slower, as weird as that sounds, because you don't have these huge advertisers and network executives breathing down your neck to keep the action up and keep this up and keep that. So I almost think they could tell the story a little bit slower, even though it would be in less episodes, which seems weird and grittier. They just wouldn't have to kind of tailor themselves to that. But I do think it'd be really hard also to essentially, if you didn't binge it in the first day, everything would be ruined. There's so many things that are coming up that are like surprises, and it is still somewhat serialised but also still somewhat episodic, which is hard for a streaming service.
Kip:
[00:47:22 - 00:47:36]
Yeah. So definitely if it was remade today, it would be a very different show, but you could have the same themes and you could have the same sort of world.
Theresa:
[00:47:36 - 00:47:37]
Yeah, absolutely.
Kip:
[00:47:37 - 00:47:40]
One thing you wouldn't have is the same actors, though.
Amand:
[00:47:41 - 00:47:43]
So this brings to another question.
Kip:
[00:47:43 - 00:47:45]
Another question. Yes.
Amand:
[00:47:45 - 00:47:58]
Which is if we were. Well, I shouldn't say if we were. But if it were to be recast today, we. Yeah, who would. Yeah, recast and who would be kind of in the show.
Amand:
[00:47:58 - 00:48:11]
So we each took a turn and we kind of recast lost in the way that we think it would be cast in 2023, probably for a streaming service. Okay, why don't you start us off?
Kip:
[00:48:16 - 00:48:18]
Okay, well, I don't want to go first.
Amand:
[00:48:18 - 00:48:18]
Okay.
Theresa:
[00:48:18 - 00:48:20]
Should we just go character at a time, or should we do the.
Amand:
[00:48:20 - 00:48:22]
No, I think we should do our own list.
Kip:
[00:48:22 - 00:48:22]
Okay.
Amand:
[00:48:22 - 00:48:23]
Or do you want to go character?
Kip:
[00:48:23 - 00:48:30]
No, you know what? I'll go first. Okay. All right, fine. So I am not good at these things.
Kip:
[00:48:31 - 00:48:55]
I am not good at imagining. I don't know who popular actors are nowadays. I still think John Travolta is the most popular actor. So I asked my good friend Chat GPT. Okay, so I asked Jet GPT, if a remake of lost season one were made today, who would the main cast be?
Kip:
[00:48:57 - 00:49:00]
Jack Shepherd. Richard Madden.
Amand:
[00:49:00 - 00:49:01]
Oh, that's a good one.
Kip:
[00:49:01 - 00:49:05]
Game of Thrones. Kate Austin. Zendaya.
Amand:
[00:49:05 - 00:49:06]
Yeah.
Kip:
[00:49:06 - 00:49:09]
John Locke. Brian Cranston.
Theresa:
[00:49:09 - 00:49:11]
Oh, that's a good choice.
Kip:
[00:49:12 - 00:49:15]
Charlie Pace. Tom Holland. No, I don't see that.
Theresa:
[00:49:15 - 00:49:16]
No.
Kip:
[00:49:17 - 00:49:23]
Syed Riz Ahmed. James Sawyer Ford. Chris Hemsworth.
Theresa:
[00:49:24 - 00:49:25]
Oh, my God.
Amand:
[00:49:25 - 00:49:25]
Nice.
Kip:
[00:49:26 - 00:49:36]
Hugo Hurley Reyes. Jorge Garcia. Reprising his original role from lost. Shannon Rutherford. Emma Roberts Boone.
Kip:
[00:49:37 - 00:49:50]
Timothy Chalamet. Claire Littleton. And I don't know how to pronounce her name. Suarezo. Ronan Shersha.
Kip:
[00:49:50 - 00:49:53]
Ronan. Michael. John David Washington.
Amand:
[00:49:53 - 00:49:54]
Okay.
Kip:
[00:49:54 - 00:50:00]
Walt. Caleb McLaughlin. Son. Gemma. Gemma chan.
Kip:
[00:50:00 - 00:50:03]
Jin. Steven Yuan.
Amand:
[00:50:04 - 00:50:07]
Okay, I've got a few that are similar, actually.
Kip:
[00:50:07 - 00:50:08]
All right, who's next?
Amand:
[00:50:08 - 00:50:09]
Do you want to go?
Theresa:
[00:50:10 - 00:50:10]
I can go.
Amand:
[00:50:11 - 00:50:11]
Okay.
Theresa:
[00:50:12 - 00:50:31]
So mine is very random. I essentially was looking up Amanda's, like, peeking, right? I was. I essentially would look up actors that were roughly the age group, and then I would just scroll until one hit me. So for Hurley, we have Mark forward.
Theresa:
[00:50:32 - 00:50:43]
For sun, we have Kim Hyunju. For Jack, we have Sam Worthington. For Sawyer, we have Max Tiro. For Kate, we have Tessa Thompson.
Kip:
[00:50:44 - 00:50:44]
I don't know who that is.
Theresa:
[00:50:44 - 00:50:54]
For said. We have sendhill. Rama murti. For Jin, we have so G sub. For Claire, we have Olivia de Jung.
Theresa:
[00:50:54 - 00:51:06]
Charlie. We have Joe Keery. Shannon, Maya Mitchell Boone, Nicholas Holt. Michael Darius Hamayun. Walt Zayn Al Rafi.
Theresa:
[00:51:06 - 00:51:12]
And then Locke. Chitwitl. Igiotel. Yeah.
Amand:
[00:51:12 - 00:51:13]
For who? Locke.
Theresa:
[00:51:13 - 00:51:14]
Yeah.
Kip:
[00:51:15 - 00:51:23]
I'm really liking the guy from stranger things as Charlie. Yeah. Joe Carey, did you say?
Amand:
[00:51:23 - 00:51:24]
Yeah. He's a good one.
Kip:
[00:51:24 - 00:51:24]
Yeah.
Theresa:
[00:51:24 - 00:51:25]
Steve?
Amand:
[00:51:25 - 00:51:25]
Is it Steve?
Kip:
[00:51:25 - 00:51:27]
Yeah. Oh, that'd be good.
Amand:
[00:51:27 - 00:51:28]
Very on point.
Kip:
[00:51:28 - 00:51:28]
Yeah.
Amand:
[00:51:29 - 00:51:40]
Okay. I also made mine kind of more geared towards what's kind of popular in the year 2023 ish. I guess. So. For Jack, I would cast Theo James.
Theresa:
[00:51:41 - 00:51:42]
Oh, my God.
Amand:
[00:51:42 - 00:51:57]
He was in divergent, and he was in season two of white lotus. But hear me out. It's because I feel like he's kind of like, was supposed to be this big teen heartthrob, and then years later, he's just doing tv. Kind of like magic box.
Theresa:
[00:51:57 - 00:51:58]
Tv is a big thing.
Amand:
[00:51:58 - 00:52:00]
No, I know. And white lotus is amazing, and he's so good in it.
Kip:
[00:52:00 - 00:52:03]
Obviously, I'm just googling him because I didn't know who he was.
Amand:
[00:52:03 - 00:52:27]
He's so beautiful. I was obsessed with him when he was indivergent. Went a little weird, too, with my lock choice. I said Norman Reedus, because I think that he's like a Creepy factor, but isn't necessarily like this old creepy man for son. I said Stephanie Sue, I don't know if that's how you pronounce it, but she was in everything, everywhere, everything all at once.
Amand:
[00:52:27 - 00:52:40]
I also said Stephen Yuan for Jin. For Kate, I said Alicia Vikander, or Vikander. I don't know how to say. She's married to Michael Fassbender. Are they married?
Amand:
[00:52:40 - 00:52:41]
I think so.
Kip:
[00:52:41 - 00:52:43]
I'm googling these people as you see.
Amand:
[00:52:43 - 00:52:47]
Them, because I don't know Kate, honestly, my reference for her is so old.
Kip:
[00:52:48 - 00:52:48]
She's in Tomb Raider.
Amand:
[00:52:48 - 00:53:01]
Tomb Raider, which is like, yeah, she's married to Michael Fassbender. And she was in the remake of Tomb Raider, which I was obsessed with for a hot minute. She's really hot. Like, she's really beautiful way. You know what?
Amand:
[00:53:01 - 00:53:11]
It's not. I don't need to stack women against each other. She's really beautiful, though. Hurley. I said Pete Davidson, because I think that comedy thing.
Amand:
[00:53:11 - 00:53:14]
Sawyer. I said adam demos, or.
Theresa:
[00:53:14 - 00:53:16]
Oh, yeah, from sex life.
Amand:
[00:53:16 - 00:53:33]
Very hot. And his australian accent could probably turn into a southern accent if they wanted to. Similar to chat, whatever you use. I also kept an original cast member reprising their role, but for me, it was said, oh, I think he would just get cooler the older he.
Kip:
[00:53:33 - 00:53:34]
Yeah, yeah.
Amand:
[00:53:34 - 00:53:37]
For Charlie, I cast Paul Mescal.
Theresa:
[00:53:37 - 00:53:38]
Who's that?
Amand:
[00:53:38 - 00:53:42]
He was in normal people. It's a miniseries. He's been in a few other.
Kip:
[00:53:44 - 00:53:45]
Like, he's irish.
Amand:
[00:53:45 - 00:53:57]
Yeah. And then for Claire, I cast Sydney Sweeney Boone, Jacob Elordi. I think he'd be a good boon. He's kind of like tortured in that weird, tortured, like, teen way.
Theresa:
[00:53:57 - 00:53:59]
Tortured in the weird, tortured teen way.
Amand:
[00:53:59 - 00:54:01]
Shannon. I said maya Mitchell.
Theresa:
[00:54:01 - 00:54:02]
Same. Yeah.
Amand:
[00:54:02 - 00:54:17]
That's so funny that we both went there. And then for Michael, I said Jason George, because I think that he needs to get away from the Grey's anatomy station 19 universe. He's been on those. He plays what's his name on the show?
Theresa:
[00:54:17 - 00:54:17]
Ben.
Amand:
[00:54:17 - 00:54:22]
Ben. And then I forgot to cast Walt because who cares about Walt?
Kip:
[00:54:24 - 00:54:25]
Wow. Interesting.
Theresa:
[00:54:25 - 00:54:29]
We're going to do a poll when this episode comes out for each character.
Amand:
[00:54:30 - 00:54:31]
Oh, that's a good idea.
Theresa:
[00:54:31 - 00:54:36]
We'll see what the final cast would be if they got to pick between our three characters.
Kip:
[00:54:36 - 00:54:38]
That's good. We'll post the names.
Amand:
[00:54:38 - 00:54:43]
Yeah. You guys will vote to see who did the best job of casting each character.
Kip:
[00:54:46 - 00:54:48]
Well, thanks for listening.
Amand:
[00:54:49 - 00:55:04]
And again, this was just to kind of get us back in the habit of recording and kind of connecting with you guys, but that means that we're back in the habit of recording. So you should be expecting the season to premiere podcast episode coming your way shortly.
Kip:
[00:55:04 - 00:55:08]
I will put. When I put this episode up, how many minutes were cut, Julio.
Amand:
[00:55:09 - 00:55:09]
Amazing.
Theresa:
[00:55:09 - 00:55:10]
That'd be fun.
Kip:
[00:55:10 - 00:55:11]
So everyone can see.
Theresa:
[00:55:11 - 00:55:12]
I'm going to say, like, ten.
Kip:
[00:55:13 - 00:55:14]
Oh, at least.
Theresa:
[00:55:14 - 00:55:21]
I think there's a lot of cackling that was happening and a lot of amand just bowing and then us laughing at it.
Amand:
[00:55:21 - 00:55:25]
All right. And on that note, we cannot wait to start doing this weekly again with you all. So thanks for.
