"You're the Doctor" declared the advert for classic board game "Operation", but this week on CheapShow Paul and Eli are the Doctors instead, and it's not going to end well for poor old Cavity Sam! In a heart pounding "Gannon's Golden Games" segment, the Cheap Chap battle to become the very best at removing small plastic pieces from a toy with a tweezer! It's thrilling stuff. We promise! Meanwhile, around the back of the Willy Wanka's Candy Shop, Juicy Jeremy is waiting for you at the secret Soda Jerk Store. He's got some cheap and tasty new drinks to share and some of them are even quite nice! Willy, however, seems to have revealed a new, disgusting side to his character! With all this going on, it's no surprise that Paul is finally losing his mind. Will Eli behave himself for just one episode? For Paul's sanity, we hope so!

Ep 242: Operation Soda Pop

For a show known for its in-depth investigative reporting, even Paul and Eli decide to dig deeper this week to get to the bottom of one of life's biggest mysteries... Why are Cream Crackers called "Cream Crackers"? The answer may surprise you. Unless you know already. Obviously. It's another back to basics episode this week when the Eli reveals his latest "Tales from the Shop Floor", but he isn't the only DJ with a few stories to share! Has Eli been usurped? There is also a bumper batch of sauces to investigate too! It's time for a "Sauce Report" that delights and confounds. Elsewhere in the episode, Paul has people popping out of his penis, takes a trip to the CheapShow psychologist and Eli is back on full "mouth noise" duties. Enjoy!

Episode 409 - Squid Sucks

In this News Brief we are joined by friend of the show, Maximillian Alvarez of The Real News, to discuss Democrats' pathetic, myopic, and nihilistic attempt to play the racist reverse Uno card on Congressional Republicans.

News Brief: How US Media Obscures the Violence of the Generic, Sterile-Sounding "Border Deal"

Just a couple years after Thomas Midgley, Jr. invented leaded gas in the 20s, he followed up that achievement by inventing chlorofluorocarbons or CFCs, which were sold by Du Pont under the brand name of Freon. The crown jewel of his work was the creation of Dichlorodifluoromethane, or CFC-12. This substance allowed for more people to experience the wonders of electric food refrigeration as well as indoor air conditioning. 

For over 40 years everyone assumed the Freon was perfectly safe, and in fact safer than other chemicals used in refrigeration. It wasn’t until the 1970s, years after Midgley had died, that the horrible truth was discovered: CFCs were eating away at the Earth’s ozone layer. The ozone layer is a region in the stratosphere that absorbs 97 to 99 percent of the Sun's medium-frequency ultraviolet light, which otherwise would potentially damage life. The deterioration of this protective layer threatened all life on earth with increased risk of cancer and other ecological problems. People realized the extent of the damage in 1985 when it was discovered that there was a massive hole in the Ozone layer above the Antarctic. This emergency situation led in 1987 to the creation of an international treaty called The Montreal Protocol on Substances That Deplete the Ozone Layer. Because of this agreement, which was signed by all of the members of the United Nations and has an extremely high compliance rate, climate projections indicate that the ozone layer will return to 1980 levels between 2040 and 2066. One possible apocalypse averted because of global cooperation.

This is the story of one guy who just wanted to make money for himself and the companies he worked for (specifically Frigidaire, General Motors, and DuPont), and how his second big invention eventually forced the entire world to pull off a massive effort to avoid global ecological disaster.
