The Basement returns to The X

Whoever said you can't go home again didn't know what he/she/it was talking about, because We Came from the Basement is doing just that.

That's right, Jason and Shawn, along with their lovely co-host Amy, are bringing the show back to 92.5 FM CFBX Kamloops!

A gentleman's agreement was reached today between We Came from the Basement and Steve Marlow and Brant Zwicker of CFBX. The first for-radio episode lands in The X's email on Friday, Feb. 26. A time slot is still in the works, but we expect an announcement soon.

We Came from the Basement will produce new episodes every two weeks, which will appear first run on the radio station before a podcast version pops up online, just like the good ole days. And long-time listeners can expect a bit of the old format to return, with a mix of music and film-related banter and interviews.

First-run episodes of the show, then called Film Reviews from the Basement, ran on The X from 2010 to late 2013. Reruns continue to air on the campus radio station, which is located at Thompson Rivers University in Kamloops, B.C.

We're pumped to go "home." The X is where Shawn and I dialled in The Basement formula, and gave us a credibility to conduct interviews and host our Dark Fest horror film festival.

Steve, Brant and the rest of The X crew are class acts through and through. Big thanks to them for once again being willing to put up with our B.S.! To learn more about The X, visit the official website.

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...
