Finally, the picks of the week. Blaine says, “get the Doctor Who collection if you don’t have it. But then again, if you don’t already own those episodes, then you don’t listen to me anyway.” Alex says, “I’d put The Raid 2 on my list, if I’d seen The Raid 1. Instead, I’ll be recommending you pick up Jodorowsky’s Dune
