The Idiot Boxers – Episode 43
In this very special episode: Merrill has given the Magical Studio in the Sky a terrifying new name, ostensibly for the fear factor of Halloween, and Kevin just wants to get out unscathed. The Idiots start off by chatting about the New York Comic Con, the 24-Hour Horror Movie Marathon and various ailments in their respective families. Then it’s on to news about TV before launching into a look at what they’ve been watching. Kevin bemoans horror-themed television programs while Merrill continues to jizz all over Flashpoint. Was that too much? Listen to the show, and get back to us with an answer.

The Idiot Boxers – Episode 39
In this very special episode: Apparently Mother Nature is not a fan of The Idiot Boxers because she sent Hurricane Irene up the east coast to knock out Merrill’s power for an entire week. Mere hours after power was restored, the Idiots were back online and talking about TV… well, after a half hour of recounting Hurricane Irene stories flavored with the spicy, hot bitterness of Starbucks. Then, Kevin chimed in with a grand story of an $11,500 burrito. Eventually, the Idiots moved on to what sucked and what rocked, along with TV news and a couple sound-offs, which includes a scathing review of Hulu+.

The Idiot Boxers – Episode 38
In this very special episode: Kevin begins the show in his fall-back position… he snacks loudly while Merrill tries to talk about television. The sugar wafers call him throughout the episode, and he becomes more and more hungry in spite of snacking. The Idiots talk about what rocked on television and when certain shows are in danger of jumping the shark. Then they break down a list of TV news, including some juicy coverage of renewal and cancellation tidbits. Then, it’s on to what sucked before sounding off about new ratings and reality TV. Finally, the show wraps up with DVDs and a barbaric recommendation.
