When the call goes out, we answer! A recent which.com article looked into whether a posh cup of tea is any better than a cheap builder’s brew. When it comes to Tea, Paul and Eli are self-proclaimed experts and they decide to do their own mini taste test. Paul has bought cheap Tesco Own Brand, Yorkshire and Twinings tea to see if Eli can notice any considerable difference! Not only that, what does Eli think is the best? If you really want the answers to these enquiries, then give this podcast a listen! Before all that “science” happens, the cheap chaps have a gift box from New Zealand that contains some hot sauces AND a collection of candy that will delight and appal in equal measure! And finally, in a shocking turn of events, Eli has remembered Paul’s birthday! However, it will soon become apparent that he really shouldn’t have bothered!

Ep 402: Tea 2: Judgement Tea

Due to circumstances beyond Paul & Eli’s control, they’re recording this week’s episode from inside the original House of Pickles… And Eli couldn’t be happier! To “celebrate” the Cheap Chaps are going back to basics with some good old fashioned content. To get things going, Eli has a red hot Sauce Report in more ways than one. He’s sourced two sauces from a nearby convenience store, which was handy, as its conveniently down the road from his place! Paul delivers another Page Turner segment with a book he’s been trying to get into the show for ages. As it transpires, this book got a bit more of a reputation following its appearance in a recent Ghostbusters movie! This publication promises a world of “Strange But True” stories guaranteed to confuse the podcast hosts. In other news, CheapShow invents a new pet and, sadly, it’s exactly what you think “Nougat The Saucy Horse” is!

Ep 405: Return To The House of Pickles

STEREO EDITION: There’s a pointless, nagging question in Paul & Eli’s minds… How many bridges span the whole length of the Regent’s Canal in London? A popular YouTuber suggested around about 40, but the Cheap Chaps aren’t convinced and decide to find out for themselves. So begins a near 9 mile journey right through the middle of London that will delight, confuse, upset and annoy them both. Beginning in the East at The Limehouse Basin, they’re going to travel West all the way to the Paddington end. How long will it take and how many bridges will there actually be? You’ll find out in this 2 hour epic episode. Along the way they’ll vent about joggers, marvel at the graffiti, reveal some history, tackle some Eli supplied snacks, share some personal stories and ONE of them will have a very unpleasant bathroom experience. Come along for another “ball of chalk”, have a “knees up” and try to have a proper “bubble” in this “capital” CheapShow adventure!

Ep 406: All Water Under The Bridge (Mono Edition)

It’s that spooky time of the year again and Paul and Eli are celebrating Halloween a little earlier than usual! On this week’s episode, it’s going to get ghoulish with a range of spectre-adjacent gummies and fizzy pop to enjoy. With the release of the Beetlejuice sequel, a few brands have chipped in with their own special edition treats. Maynards have something called “Spooky Gums” for the Cheap Chaps to wrap their taste buds around and Fanta have a green Apple flavoured soda to sup! Do either celebrate the “ghost with the most” or will they both horrifically underwhelm? Oh! After weeks of fierce internet debate, CheapShow has finally gotten its hands on Heinz’s Monster Munch Pickled Onion flavoured Mayo. The results will not surprise anyone! Elsewhere in this edition of the pod, Paul is trying to get Halloween vibes going by showing Eli his latest “foggy” gadget. As for Eli, he has something of his own to share this All Hallow’s Eve. The return of an old CheapShow treasure reveals something haunting, terrifying and even possibly dangerous! What will Eli’s Monkey Claw conjure and will it have tragic consequences for the economy comedy podcast? Listen… If You Dare!

Ep 407: Talk To Us

CheapShow is LIVE! Or rather, WAS live on Oct 19th when Paul & Eli performed to a packed house at the Cheerful Earful Festival! Joining them on stage for 90 minutes of carefully organised havoc and horror is Sooz Kempner, Ethan Lawrence and Ash Frith! Over the next hour and a half, a frothing merry audience will be entertained with a low budget Daft Punk intro, a hellish scoring system argument, the resurrection of “Keith”, an acting masterclass with Vincent Price, a mega mix Price of Shite, Gannon’s fastest song to date, a tribute to classic TV game show “3.2.1” and the show’s biggest anti-climax ever! It’s an overstuffed, overexcited live show with CheapShow doing what CheapShow does best… Comedy chaos and high energy hi-jinks! With thanks to our guests, Giles from Cheerful Earful and the staff at The Bedford, in Balham!

Ep 408: Live At The Cheerful Earful Podcast Festival 2024

Following the shocking events of Episode 407, Paul has been in the care of our resident supernatural expert “Gareth”. It was Gareth who found him and exorcised the demon from his body, but Paul was badly shaken up by the experience. As a result, Paul has only got ONE HOUR to record this week’s podcast and it’s up to Eli to get his co-host through the next 60 minutes. In a slightly more unfocused episode that usual, Eli pulls out a range of sweet Polish mustards to taste test the living hell out of them. Thankfully, because of the live show, there are also big bags of crisps to sample and all four flavours are loosely based on the UK TV gameshow “Bullseye” branding! Will the snacks live up to the legacy of Bully and his darts based quiz? There is only one way to find out, and that’s to get their gobs all over them. It’s another “real time” episode, so hold on tight!

Ep 409: Mustard Bully

Paul is back from his week away in Los Angeles. It was a chance for him to actually unwind and enjoy himself, free from the burden of his podcast duties. However, he wasn’t completely “off the clock” as he managed to pick a few things up from his vacation for the podcast to nibble on and evaluate! In fact, you could say both Eli and Paul are in very chipper moods, despite one of them feeling under the weather and the other a little jetlagged. Over the course of the next hour, Eli will sample some very tasty, and much loved, mustard as well as some moreish snacks bought from the Little Tokyo part of LA. Paul also has a little taste test he wants to try, as he pits the American branded chocolate bars against their UK contemporaries! There’s a Kit Kat, some Rolos and a Snickers bar to compare to see which is actually better, the USA or UK version? Finally, Paul pits Eli to a Goodwill store sourced Price of Shite, with some items chosen to appeal to Eli’s passions. Everyone is feeling good this week, let’s see how long that lasts!

Ep 410: Hot Gesture Avocado

Following the successful live show back in October, Paul and Eli have been graced with an assortment of gifts and items for the podcast to enjoy! There is quite a lot to get through, and the Cheap Chaps have to start somewhere, so why not start with a mystery bag of goodies from Andy and Louise! In what ends up being one long “Price of Shite” challenge, there are eight items to investigate and evaluate. Over the next hour or so, expect to learn about Morph’s family tree, whether fishing is better than sex, who on Earth “Luke Fictitious” is, the joy of big boats AND if Paul’s “fluid intelligence” is better than Eli’s “crystallized intelligence”. There are BIG p’twings at stake!

Ep 411: A Liquid Crystallized Display

It’s another bag of random nonsense this week, as Paul and Eli bravely dive into a troubling world of second hand treats and terrors. As donated to us by Ash at the October live show (viewable on YouTube now!), it’s a bag with a proper mix of tat. What follows is another typically CheapShow wild ride covering the horrors of TikTok, dog treat toys, VHS based board games, advice from Timmy Mallett, unbelievably awful pun work, pyramid puzzles, and a wallet of DVDs with a grotty surprise! To make things more maddening, Eli is desperate to try out a brand new character but because Paul is poor evil, there is a very good chance this new character will be dead on arrival. If you want to know how old Paul and Eli feel these days, this episode will give you a very clear answer to that question!

Ep 412: Utterly Random

Before we end 2024, Eli has been itching to do another Noodle Pot Blitz episode and now is his time to shine! He’s brought along four examples to slurp down and review and it’s quite the mixture. There’s a Maggi Hot Cup, A Bachelors Pasta N Sauce, An Itsu Satay Rice Noodle and a ruddy Chicken Fajita Pot Noodle to devour and only one hour to cram it all in! Will the Pot Noodle be a pleasant surprise or will the Itsu live up to its underwhelming track record? You’ll find out in this instant noodle munch off. If there is any kink in this plan, it’s the fact that maybe, just maybe, Paul is losing his mind (again) this week. He must be overcome with noodle joy or something!

Ep 413: Another Noodle Pot Blitz

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!
