The Media Bowels (TMB) was a Eusloidian satirical television program hosted by Stuart Wells. It aired on EPT between 2003 and 2008. The show was frequently controversial during its run.

, a show similar in format to the popular TVNE show Eating Media Lunch. The series premiered on March 3rd, 2003 on EPT, seven months before TVNE premiered EML. Stuart Wells primarily dealt upon issues of the week, including criticism of local television, Hisqish and international news channels and some tactics to help in its shock value. Because of the shock value, the series was frequently controversial during its run. There were four seaons in the half-hour format. In October 2006 it moved to Sunday nights for one hour and had two seasons in said format, including episodes broadcast around the silly season of the southern hemisphere. The seventh season aired from October to December 2008 and was made in a new studio. The most controversial episode was broadcast on April 1st, 2007, in which the program was a prank presented from an alternate dimension where Eusloida was reannexed by Hisqaida and had references to Arkvalth Zavkler throughout. This infuriated Eusloidians and Jysannians, but eventually EPRT was safe from the controversy. Had this episode occurred in 2012 and 2018 (where April Fool's Day fell on a Sunday), controversy would be wider.
