That's all folks! Last night, ABC aired the final episode of LOST,
the popular series about the lives of plane crash survivors on a mysterious tropical island inhabited by polar bears, smoke monsters and hot guys who couldn't seem to die.
The much anticipated conclusion left more questions than answers. What was it all about?
Today we're joined by Marcus Leshock and Anna Roberts of the "Last Minute Lost Podcast" - a podcast dedicated entirely to the hit TV show.
Join us as we try to make sense of the final episode and discuss the sex appeal of the actors and the religious themes buried deep in the plot.

Happy Birthday Harvey Milk. In Chicago, a small crowd came out to celebrate the 80th birthday of Harvey Milk, one of the nation's most cherished gay civil rights leaders, who in 1977 became California's first openly gay man to be elected into office.
Rumors are exploding on the Internet that Equality California dis invited-screen writer Dustin Lance Black from a fundraiser at Sharon Osbourne's home on Harvey Milk's birthday because gossip blogger Perez Hilton was also invited.
The drama started last year when Hilton posted sexy photos of Black on his site. Geoff Kohrs, EQCA Eecutive Director responded with details saying they warned Black that the fund raiser might be uncomfortable for both but neither celebrity showed up to the event.
Madonna speaks up about the country of Malawi’s decision to sentence a gay couple to 14 years of hard labor just for getting married.
A man gets sucked into a sausage machine and lives.
And a toy dog for children that may be barking up the wrong tree.

Writer and oral historian E Patrick Johnson spent two years traveling the South to interview almost a hundred men for his extraordinary book Sweet Tea: Black Gay Men of the South.
E. Patrick Johnson put a lot of love into the project and now he's bringing these men's stories to life with a theatrical adaptation of the book- Sweet Tea: The Play, produced by About Face Theater now playing in Chicago at the Viaduct Theater until May 29.
Listen as E. Patrick tells us about the responsibility of performing these men's stories and he weighs in on the unnerving use of slur words in books, films and theater.
What is the best way for writers and artists to handle taboo slur words? Do we avoid them, embrace them or look to them for a deeper understanding of who we are and why people hate?

Smart, funny and sassy, Elizabeth Pisani is a superstar in the HIV/AIDS healthcare crisis. As an independent researcher, Elizabeth has interviewed hundreds of sex workers all around the world to figure out how best to fight sexually transmitted diseases.
And she has come up with some surprising results- in Southern Africa, the biggest HIV risk for men is to get married, but in Southeast Asia, the more sex that women have before marriage, the less likely HIV infections will occur overall.
It's not always obvious how to reduce HIV infections and that's why Elizabeth fights to make sure that good research gets translated into good government policy.
At the TED "ideas worth spreading" conference, Elizabeth dazzled the audience of influential people working in technology, entertainment and design by bringing up the idea that a great way to develop policy is to look at things from the point of view of people at risk- sex workers, drug users and gay men.
Today Elizabeth joins us to talk about her fabulous book "The Wisdom of Whores: Bureaucrats, Brothels and the Business of AIDS" If you're interested in sex, drugs and taxes, you owe it to yourself to read her remarkable book.
Listen as Elizabeth answers questions from you on her research, how she builds trust with sex workers, why junkies choose to put themselves at risk and share needles, why banning prostitution can be bad for women and how to navigate your slut phase.
