OSNAP #43: Mythbusters Did It

OSNAP: Mythbusters Did It
This week, Kevin and Merrill reel from the bizarre one-two punch of Twitter explosions this week, including the George Zimmerman verdict and the death of that 31-year-old kid from Glee. Kevin clarifies a legal concept about the Zimmerman case before clarifying some science behind Sharknado. Later, Kevin rages at Merrill about his sloppy sexual fascination with Mythbusters before moving into wacky news. Some topics discussed include racist Asian pilot names, penis-biting snakes, a Kentucky man who can’t keep his hands (and other body parts) off a pool floatie, and Apple’s compliance with pornography over-riding the marriage contract. Oh, snap!

The Idiot Boxers – Episode 21

Posted on

In this very special episode: The world sheds a collective tear of sadness as we wrap up 2010 with the last episode of The Idiot Boxers until 2011 (which is just two weeks away, so it’s really not worth crying over). Kevin and Merrill run down some of the end-of-the-year finales and give their approval of various shows. Kevin tries to derail the show by hitting on Merrill’s cousin by proxy and describe creative uses of cream cheese. Merrill tries to keep things on task, but soon buckles to exhaustion. Then they talk about some TV news and hand out some family-friendly recommendations (which ends a rather family-unfriendly show). Sorry, Dawn from California.

The Idiot Boxers – Episode 17

Posted on

In this very special episode: The Idiot Boxers return with what could be their most offensive episode yet. They may be talking about shows under broadcast standards but they’re definitely using some HBO language. (Well, Merrill uses the HBO language while Kevin just conjures up some extremely disturbing imagery… sorry Dawn from California.) They talk about the shows that rocked and the shows that sucked, plus a copious amount of TV news. Then they sound off about things like The Incredible Hulk and CBS’s streaming policy. Finally, they exhaustively round things out with TV-on-DVD picks and Idiot Recommendations.
