Episode 30 Trapper vs. THE ABYSS

It’s been promised for a long time, but as it’s episode 420, it makes sense for Paul and Eli to finally tackle a topic that celebrates the joy and pain of enjoying weed. Whatever you call it, Weed. Marijuana. Bud. Grass. Ganja. Nug. Reefer. Mary Jane. Blunt. Dank. Hashish. Doobie. Pot, CheapShow is talking about it. It’s no secret that the Cheap Chaps enjoy smoking weed, but in this slightly different episode, they’re going to talk about their relationship and personal history with it. The literal highs and cringe inducing lows. From first and worst experiences, to tangents, anecdotes and facts – CheapShow is surprisingly candid this week, but also reassuringly stupid too. Come along with CheapShow for an episode that will definitely go up in smoke before the mind wobbling finale. Beware the Fakir’s Noose!
Important: This episode tackles the topic of drugs, personal use and honest, personal opinions on cannabis. We not celebrating or condemning it, just talking about our own experiences. Thanks for listening! Listener discretion is advised!

Episode 347 - The Shinmiyangyo Incident ft. The Worst of All Possible Worlds

Last week, Paul and Eli gave themselves the challenge of finding six typical pieces of CheapShow tat in just a few hours, in the charity shops of Watford High Street. This week… they are going to share and review their findings. It’s a little more random than usual as the items range from the mundane to the bizarre. Along the way, they’ll bounce from toy cars to kitsch porcelain statues, via 1980s light entertainers and cheesy dance party albums. After an exhausting day of CheapShowing, the cheap chaps are finding it hard to find the right words, so they decide to invent a load of new ones instead! Who got the best tat, who failed the task? You decide! (But you don’t really decide. Just listen in.) It’s time for Tat Hunt: Watford High Street Part Two.

Ep 422: Tat Hunt: Scrumptious Tat

With Special Guest: Nick Helm
Holy F***! Comedy starlet Nick Helm is back on CheapShow and he isn’t messing about. He joins Paul and Eli at the Soho Radio Podcast Studios for what turns out to be 90 minutes of rants, shouting, repulsion, audio torture and awkward conversations. Once again, Eli seems to be feeling poorly as he croaks and squeaks through the recording session. The upshot of this is that he develops the most adorable laugh we’ve ever heard. As for Paul, he’s a bit grumpy before things even kick off and his inability to control his co-host and his guest will drain the life from his soul. As for Nick, he’s has to endure some unusually flavoured crisps from Finland, Kit Kats from Japan, the Rambo themed music of an ex-BBC radio presenter (no, not that one) and a party game that is only going to make the already volatile atmosphere worse! Hold tight everyone, it’s a rowdy one!

Episode 351 - The 410AD Sack of Rome

After last week’s epic walkabout/Gannon’s Golden Games hybrid episode, it’s time to calm things down again. What this episode doesn’t need is violent meltdowns, stupid new characters, an appalling improvised song and useless conversational tangents… Sadly that’s exactly what you can expect in this week’s edition of the economy comedy podcast. It’s a simple enough set up with snacks, drinks and a Price of Shite from the PO Box. Over the course of the hour, Paul and Eli will drink milky booze, Minecraft Doritos, stare at arses, improvise songs over small electronic fidget toy music and muse over some new noodles. It’s good comfort food podcasting at CheapShow HQ and with the added bonus of introducing the world to Donna Eggs, who’ll solve ALL our problems!

Episode 353 - The Death of Carthage

Oh Boy Howdy have we got noodles for you this week! Eli is frothing with anticipation because he’s got three cup noodles to blitz through AND he’s managed to get his little claws on two new noodle/pasta hybrid meals. Paul is going to just have to deal with the onslaught of instant noodle goodness that is coming his way. They’ll be sampling some vile Pickled Onion Super Noodles, guzzling down some spicy hot Kim Chi Jjigae broth and see what the Squid Game licenced Rice Cakes in Sweet and Spicy sauce is like. Once that’s been tasted and tested, the Cheap Chaps are moving on to a new line of food from Samyang called Tangle. It seems to be an instant noodle meets Italian pasta hybrid thing that can’t taste as weird as it sounds, right? However, if you fear its all noodle, all the time, then don’t worry as we have a brilliant new character making a debut. Even Eli approves! Who is Dicky Churdlington and what’s his top tip for the races this weekend? As ever, you have to listen to find out!

Ep 427: Non Stop Noodles

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!
