They are still rerunning every week. And I agree with Eli, it is pretty dull.

For some strange reason, Paul and Eli have decided to take CheapShow out of London and perform a live show at The Leicester Comedy Festival. Recorded on Sat 25th Feb at The Firebug Bar in Leicester, the Cheap Chaps bring their usual rude, rowdy and unruly antics to the horror of a real, live audience! They are also joined by comedian and CheapShow alumni Tom Mayhew who will probably regret coming the moment he sets foot on stage. It’s (almost) an hour of mad rants, unusual Moog tunes, Price of Shite items and even some visual gags that don’t quite translate to an audio format! A typical noisy s***show!

Luckily, we filmed it too, you don’t need to miss out on the action and pointless visual material! You can watch it here:

Ep 322: Live from The Leicester Comedy Festival 2023

After the disastrous events of last week, things return to normal for this week’s episode. Whatever normal means. It’s a music heavy episode as we take a trip to Silverman’s Platter to investigate some novelty pop songs from bygone times. They investigate Hanna-Barbera inspired rap, endure some space themed disco, and then brave the contents of “The World’s Worst Record Show” album, that has some truly troubling tracks. We apologise in advance for what you will hear. There is also time for a quick Gannon’s Golden Games, based on an old TV format. However, Eli may have truly ruined the segment forever and Paul is close to throwing in the towel. It’s all a bit of a shambles this week. OH! And we launch Urinevision 2023 too! Which is nice.

Ep 325: Mrs Miller and The Stardust Cowboy

The League of Snacks (and Crisps) is dead! Long Live “Snax Starz”, the exciting new replacement segment for 2023! It was meant to be a simpler premise, but as ever on CheapShow, things get complicated, and all of a sudden there are snack palaces, anthropomorphised crisps and a pool house. This week’s inductee is the much-requested Doritos Burger King Flame Grilled Whopper flavour. As you can imagine, it goes about as well as expected. Eli has some brand-new Tales from the Dance Floor stories to tell and to say Paul is unimpressed is a major understatement and rubs him up the wrong way. Finally, Eli is excited to head back to the Country Urban Noodle Test Lab Kitchen with a cheeky little noodle he’s been dying to sample. Of course Paul ruins it with a new character, but thankfully for Eli, said character ends up breaking Paul’s brain! Good. He deserves it!

Ep 326: Snax Starz

Paul reopens his candy store this week and invites Eli in to sample his latest sweet offerings. Surprisingly, they’ve never covered jellies before (or jams, if you prefer) and they thought they’d look for the cheapest to see if they pass muster. Will a Vimto or Slush Puppie jelly be any good, or will they be embarrassed by the Hartley’s brands? CheapShow intends to find out! It’s also been a while since we last had a Tales from the Shop Floor on the show and so the cheap chaps dip their toes into another tale of woe from the world of commerce. Before you think that this all seems pretty normal, bear in mind that in this episode, Eli tries to convince his new “mink” character isn’t a total embarrassment and Paul would rather come up with a load of mucky James Bond film baddies. Bloody idiots.

Ep 327: Silversquirt

It’s an emotional rollercoaster this week on CheapShow with bitter rants, over-excited expostulations, sober moments of clarity and confusing arguments! It begins with Eli desperately trying to cram another new character in the show and only gets more unhinged from there. Paul is not impressed with Eli’s increasingly poor creative choices and there is going to be tears before bedtime, or at least by the end of the episode. In Charity Shop Showcase, Eli has sourced two very unusual discoveries for Paul to peruse. Whilst one of them is conceptually very confusing, the second one tickles all of Paul’s fancies. To end the episode, it's a bumper sized Price of Shite, with six items to delight and bemuse. Will this be Eli’s finest hour? Knowing Paul’s luck, then yes, it could very well be!

Ep 328: This Is Not What A Podcast Should Do

It’s Eli’s view that Paul only wants to do another Price of Shite segment again this week because he’s desperate to catch up on P’twings. Not true. Paul picked another Price of Shite selection because his bedroom is full of PO Boxes, and he wants to make some ruddy space! No matter who you believe, at least Paul and Eli are pitted against each other this time, making for yet another hotly contested round of the age old CheapShow favourite! It’s packed with tat, crap, and a few things of genuine interest too. Less interesting are the snacks vying to get into the illustrious Snack Palace. Will Peatos slip in through the front door, or be cast out onto the street? And what about that hot sauce popcorn? How will it be judged? You can find out in this week’s jolly romp.
PS. Where are the towels?

Ep 329: Peas, Popcorn And Ptwings

What’s all this then? Everything is back to front on this week’s episode. Instead of Eli, Paul is going to be the Super Taster in Off Brand/Brand Off. Can Paul pick out the HP Sauce amongst a few imitators? It’s a proper saucy romp as there are surprises abound in this battle of the brown sauces! Later in the show, Gannon’s Golden Games becomes Eli’s Excellent Entertainments as it is Mr Silverman who has discovered the board game! They both get to dabble in a bit of nostalgia as they try to wrap their heads around the rules for the Dad’s Army game, based on the very popular 1970s BBC sitcom. However, there is one draw back to having the hosts swap roles… Eli’s is going to get a taste of his own medicine, and Paul’s playing doctor!

Ep 331: Brown Sauce

Has Eli finally met his match? Usually, he only has to fend off the annoyances of ONE Paul, but this week, he is up against THREE! Mr Gannon is joined by Paul Rose (Mr Biffo) and returning guest, Paul Putner! The much-loved comedian and actor returns to the CheapShow fray for a bumper Charity Shop Showcase and a Price of Shite with real, terrifying stakes. Over the course of 90 minutes, you’ll hear tales of showbiz woes, listen to what went on with “Knife and Wife”, discuss the secrets of The Bill and drown in a sea of weird “exercise and healthy living” 12-inch LPs. From Slim Goodbody to Sesame Street Live, via tiny toys, classic comedy sketches, Star Wars anecdotes and video game guides… It all leads to a thunderous and fiery climax! It’s going to get rowdy!

With Special Thanks to @noiselund for the “Charity Shop Showcase” Theme!

Ep 333: Three Pauls And A Silverman

In Episode 310, all those months ago, Paul and Eli attempted to complete the whole of the Celandine Walk in 6 hours. They absolutely failed and had to abandon the walk because Eli had somewhere better to be, apparently! However, this failure got under their skin, and they decided that they both need closure. This week, the Cheap Chaps decide to finish off what they started and endeavour to complete that walk, taking them from Swakeleys Park to the Grand Union Canal in Cowley. That means there is a good five miles of walking ahead of them! Along the way, they decide to also cram in another modular “Price of Shite” and guess the prices of seven weird and wonderful charity shop finds. Who will win the most “p’twings” by the end of the journey? Why do they keep getting lost? What happens when they run out of places to walk to and who smokes too much and nearly whites out? Find out in this bumper walkabout edition of CheapShow!

Ep 334: The Walk Men (A Ball Of Chalk Part Two)

The sun is out and Paul and Eli have no intention of recording this week’s episode indoors. Rather than sweat it out in the House of Pickles, Paul recommends a wander around Stanmore Country Park and Eli willingly agrees. After all the drama of Urinevision 2023, a nice relaxing walk in the woods of North London seems like the perfect antidote the cheap chaps desperately need. Over the course of one long, hot Summer’s day, Paul and Eli will tackle cheesy cheap eats, they’ll attempt to value some Transformers themed Price of Shite items, Paul will discover that wearing shorts and traversing nettle bushes don’t mix and Eli will become obsessed with the word “pasturey”. Expect the usual arguments, confusing comedic scenarios and, with a bit of luck, a swing to have an accident on! Join us on a sunny day walk that will absolutely, positively be blessed with good fortune…

Oh and stick around at the end of the episode for a new track from Noiselund:
“Good Boy (Whistle in the Wind)”

Ep 337: Cow's Parsley & Lamb's Lettuce

After a few weeks of song contests, real time episodes and walkabout adventures, Paul and Eli are back in the House of Sausage and Eggs for some wholesome and earthy cheap and cheerful segments. They’ve found some proper discount snacks this week, tasting a range of budget bites and fizzy delights. There’s an Irish Monster Munch knock-off to sample, something a little tasty for instant noodleheads, a traditional potato snack with a confounding gimmick and a soft drink from India that is more fascinating than the cheap chaps first think! Sadly, any joy taken from these nibbles will be sapped away in the Silverman’s Platter segment. It unleashes three truly soul crushing audio oddities that range from the saccharine to the outright offensive. Can you survive these vinyl record hellscapes? Paul and Eli are barely able to! Despite all of this, one question remains… Who Am The Panty Man? You’ll regret asking, that’s for sure.
Actually no… One more question! Who the hell puts a serial killer’s painting for sale in a charity shop?

Ep 338: Who Am The Panty Man?

CheapShow is a comedy podcast all about getting the very best out of the worst! Be it Poundlands, Charity Shops, Car Boot Sales or Bargain Bins, hosts Paul Gannon & Eli Silverman poke around in the corners of the high streets and internet to find treasure in the trash.

One week it could be a studio based show, the next, a live comedy event. It could even be a location report or a scripted adventure! A few things it is, however, is rude, crude, silly and drizzled in pop culture, nostalgia and plenty of verbal violence!

It has guests, videos, songs, reviews, games and dares.  We apologise in advance!
