Sorry, folks. The Top 10 might be taking an extended hiatus.

Normally this is where we'd post a preview for next week's edition. However, due to all the cancellations and all the hysteria surrounding everything that is going on, we will *NOT* not be running a new edition this week. My personal IRL situation is changing almost daily and I will be changing locations to deal with the current COVID-19 situation, which, as you can imagine, just flat out sucks for everyone. And I just don't feel like right now it is the right time to make fun of the news at this point. Which is what the Top 10 is all about. But when the news is all bad, it's hard to see an upside. I should be at a steady place and situation starting Thursday at which point we will be putting together a new Top 10 as regularly scheduled. Plus you also have to factor, with no live audience, what's the point of doing live comedy? None.

But when things return to normal (we hope), we will running the Top 10 as we had originally planned last December which includes finishing out Stupidest State 2020. We will be putting together a Best Of edition this week featuring your requests for the best things we've done so far covering all of the editions, and we will have Stupidest State Round 1 Week 1 featuring the #1 and #2 heavyweights of the Batshit Conference, and last year's champion Alabama taking on #2 Oklahoma in a Family Values faceoff, and a bonus all new "People Are Dumb". Because we can at least laugh at stupid people right? We also may bring back some Top 10 Quick Takes, and if in the very off chance we don't come back on the 25th, there will be a Mini Top 10 (or Top 3) to hold you over until we can bring back the full and proper Top 10 Conservative Idiots you all know and love with our favorite segments like Beating A Dead Horse, NO, People Are Dumb, I Need A Drink, Top 10 Investigates, and of course, Holy Shit.

In the meantime, you can also follow us on our Twitter feed (and you should) at @10Idiots, where we will be bringing you some new content and stupid things right-wingers say and do regularly. You can also follow the Holy Shit Prayer Line at @churchoftop10, where our pastor will bring about news of the apocalypse and miracle cures during the time off! Enjoy!

In the meantime, feel free to catch up on the past three editions!
