~ What Katy Said – Episode the Eleventh ~

An unexpected necessity! So much to say about LA X and the ensuing discussion, I find myself chatting endlessly on the many wonderous and fascinating things I have been asked to! Thus, within:

- “alternative” timelines?

- John Locke: is dead, dead?

- The Official LOST podcast

- Should we be worried?

- Sun & Jin – the adventure of the missing wedding rings

- Greater Forces Are At Work Here

- What IS going on with Sayid?

- Disappointed in who, why?!

Many thanks to all those who tweeted and emailed and so on – your contributions and considerations are a joy to me, keep them coming =)

Let the ace times roll!

~ What Katy Said – Episode the Tenth ~

And so it is that WKS hits double figures on the Season Six premiere! Exciting times. Just over an hour of episode reaction awaits within, complete with consideration, contemplation, more than a little flail, and a slight hint of confusion and bemusement. Love to hear your thoughts on my thoughts at the usual addresses! (see Contact Me in the sidebar)

Contained within – a fairly straightforward run through both episodes from beginning to end! I haven’t done any recapping or suchlike; I’ve simply gone through my notes and tried to explain myself at a reasonable pace! I figured it would be the most interesting thing, at this point, just to share my watching experience, immediate thoughts and feelings, before tempering them with anything else I hear around and about. So, raw and off the press, unedited and gently hyper…

You can find all my LOST podcasts to date at my MediaFire folder !

Thanks, as always, for listening, and namaste for now!

…technical issues!

Sincere apologies for any skipping/disjointedness on the last podcast – the program crashed just as I finished it and I was literally running out the door so I only had time to smush it back together from the temp. files…I very much hope that this problem will not be repeating itself today! Thanks to those of you who battled through it all the same…I do appreciate your patience and support, and apologise for the poor service!

I have just this moment completed watching Episodes 1 & 2 of Season 6 and have a ton of notes to go through…recording is about to commence, so I hope to have my reaction cast up very shortly!

~ What Katy Said – Episode the Ninth ~

With great apology for any technical sounds here – occasional silences, thumps of my flailing around overexcitably, and the fact that I might have made a bloody great mess of this when Audacity crashed just as I finished recording, and I was forced to find out how to try to put files together. If it starts in the middle and finishes at the beginning (I jest – it oughtn’t to – I checked!) can we just consider it somehow fitting?

Also, I find listening to myself so bemusing. My accent doesn’t know whether to do pub or telephone…

Anyway! In today’s pre-Season 6 excitement, I spend half an hour talking:

- Season 6 predictions

- Do I think anyone will die?

- Reflections on moments from Follow The Leader and The Incident; how my first main theory found its mirror image

- general flaily joy

- Season 2 bullet points

And that’s about that!

Again, I apologise for any fail sound here, and I hope it’s listenable and not too much overexcitement. Much love to all for your support for this podcast, and I will see you all again after S06ep01 of LOST !

…countdown…

Still spoiler-free, still working damn hard on staying that way, kthx!

This evening, we are watching the episode ‘?’, which is instantly poking at earlier curiosities I had, in the journey through all five seasons, come to forget. I’m hoping to podcast this weekend and talk a little about all the things that have come to mind that I haven’t remembered to put elsewhere, and to make a few more predictions for S6.

I don’t think I’ve ever been so excited for the release of anything, bar the Lord of the Rings films. Just. Can’t. Wait!

…forthcoming…

So, we completed our LOST rewatch today, which was a sparkling, shining and multi-layered joy. We entangled ourselves greatly in many conversations about the whys and hows and wherefores of lots of things, and spent ages watching the Sun & Jin wedding scene practically frame-by-frame, which twisted our brains a bit.

I have made a garbled list of thoughts which I hope to ungarble over the weekend, that I might do a ‘final thoughts’ podcast then or during next week, prior to the start of Season 6, about which I am appallingly excited. Included shall be What We Have Learned, What We Have Not Learned, What We Have Yet To Learn, and What We Want. Or, well, I probably won’t say it exactly like that, but it might be similar. Also thoughts from having watched some of the extras on the S5 DVD.

I sincerely hope to remain spoilerfree, and thus am only checking very limited bits of online – apologies if any of you find your emails/tweets etc to be ignored; I do not hate or not care about you, but am simply overly paranoid! Accordingly, I know nowt about what’s forthcoming (bar anything mentioned at or prior to ComicCon, or that in the S5 DVD commentaries), and so cannot fail to produce a spoilerfree podcast. Hurrah!

For these reasons, I’m not asking for contributions as per my usual begging, but that doesn’t mean you can’t send them in anyway XD

I can’t believe the waiting is almost over! When I started this podcasting business, so many months ago, it felt as if Season 6 would never come, but, now? It’s almost here. Oh, the exciting…

~ What Katy Said – Episode the Eighth ~

Aaaand, with a little help from many people and a lot of coffee, I have just finished another podcast! A little excitable, I fear, not aided by messy notes, but I hope not too off-putting.

Download! What Katy Said – Episode the Eighth

Contained within!

- Bullet Points: The LOST Disney ‘ride’ petition, Season 5 rewatch, Damon and Carlton interview

– LOST guest stars – those we’ve enjoyed, those we’d like to see

- LOST as ‘grand fiction’ – why LOST doesn’t fit the mould of epic storytelling, and yet captures many of us in a similar fashion. Disparate fandom and why I find this curious

- LOST – Season 6 – What If I Don’t Like The Ending?!

and a note on my forthcoming plans. With many thanks to all those who contributed, apologies to those I didn’t, and a request for any more such contributions (but NO spoilers plskthx) to the usual addresses, all available in the Contact Me section!

…Gott Nytt År!…

Happy New Year, everyone, from a suitably festive Katy, who is, today, wearing a dress covered with polar bears (yes, it IS as ace as it sounds!) and eating vast amounts of Christmas cake.

I’ll be podcasting tomorrow, unless I’m entirely snowed in (chances are slim but possible) and I haven’t entirely decided about what I’ll be saying, but I think there’ll be thoughts aplenty. If you’ve had any random LOST-related thoughts (show, fandom, forthcoming season, anything bar spoilers) and you’d like them discoursed upon, SEND SEND SEND! Usual contact details apply XD

Other than that, I’ll be immersing myself in Lord of the Rings (which I will be mentioning in my podcast, in relation to grandiose themes, complete stories, complex characters, redemption and Fandoms I Have Loved) and drinking whisky!

May 2010 bring you all that you want, including, I hope, a satisfactory, sensational and epic end to the LOST we know and love!

…’tis the season…

To whom it may concern, a very Merry Christmas from a very full and sleepy Katy, who is, frankly, still overcome by the joys of a snowy, freezing cold Swedish Christmas.

God Jul!

Still very gladly taking submissions and comments for future podcasts, so do, as always, feel free to contact me at the usual with anything you’ve got to mind!

~What Katy Said – Episode the Seventh~

And, with a slight change to our anticipated schedule, owing largely to an excellent visit to the pub and two jugs of a fabulous a cocktail named Cherry Fizz, I bring you, rather than a serious discourse upon ethical considerations in LOST, my thoughts from the first 9 episodes of Season 5 and a few musings on commentary and deleted scenes!

Download! What Katy Said – Episode the Seventh

As always you can find my old podcasts at MediaFire and accounts as to what’s contained within are at the start of this podcast and on the appropriate entry in this blog! Those of you interested in my comparison between LOST and the original TV series The Prisoner, might I direct you to Episode 5 !

Thanks as always for your thoughts and encouragement, and should you wish to send me any ideas, questions, comments, all the details are in the Contact Me! link on the sidebar. Namaste!
