Doctor Who meets Sherlock Holmes on a Dark Journey

Here's something us Basementites don't get to talk about all that often -- podcasts! Which is funny given that we're, you know, a podcast.

And fans of Doctor Who and Sherlock Holmes will be delighted -- that's right, I said delighted -- to know the characters join forces in a new series of podcasts called Doctor Who: Dark Journey.

Dark Journey is a four-part audio-adventure series merging the best of classic Who and NuWho with a darker edge. The episodes feature music by the U.K. prog-rock band Traffic Experiment and the vocal talent of Andrew Chalmers as The Doctor and Roy Miranda as Holmes. That's them pictured above.

Word has it Chalmers is a fan of our show, which instantly makes him our new best friend.

Dark Journey doesn't just mix Doctor Who and the World's Greatest Detective. Oh no. Check out the official synopsis: a recently regenerated and emotionally shattered Doctor arrives in London and becomes the companion to Sherlock Holmes. The duo initially team up to stop Jack the Ripper's murderous trail of terror, but could there be an even greater evil at work in Victorian England?

The series is produced by Toronto-based AM Audio Media. Episodes appear every Saturday at 5:30 p.m. EST on Soundcloud and iTunes.

Yeah, this sounds like fun. We're gonna check it out, and strongly encourage all of you to do the same.

Top 5 quotes from the Rambo franchise

It's Rambo Day, which means it's a day we celebrate all things Rambo. And no, we didn't make that up. It's a real thing, and part of the lead in to Rambo: Last Blood coming out on Friday. We were going to celebrate by doing a Top 5 favourite Rambo kills, but the fine folks at Arrow in the Head already did something like that, so I figured why not share our favourite Rambo quotes. I like quotes. Quotes are good. Anyway, here we go with our Top 5, in no particular order: 5) "They drew first blood." - John Rambo, First Blood (1982) Because it's always cool when the hero references the title of the movie in a quote. 4) "Live for nothing, or die for something. Your call." - John Rambo, Rambo (2008) Because it's 100-per-cent truth, and is the exclamation mark on a great monologue by Stallone. 3) "I could have killed 'em all. I could kill you. In town, you're the law. Out here, it's me. Don't push it, or I'l...
