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!

Cor Blimey, it's another "real time" episode of the podcast as Paul & Eli try to cram a meaty Price of Shite game into 60 mins. Eli is off to America to celebrate his 50th birthday and so Paul has requested an easy edit, so it’s time for another uncut, rambling and ranting edition of the economy comedy podcast. Thanks to another PO Box delivery, they have plenty to wade though to score those delicious p’twings! There’s some kitchenware, more Chas N Dave music, some games and a hideous piece of houseware destined for the bin! Not only all that but Paul & Eli manage to squeeze in a quick game of 1980s TV trivia too. It’s a big, stuffed, typically manic episode of CheapShow that Eli better not ruin with his “podcast killing” behaviour!

The award winning podcast returns for another episode packed with cheap thrills and cheap laughs! This week, Paul and Eli are dipping their toes into the murky waters of “Silverman’s Platters” to review three strange musical charity shop discoveries. There is quite the variety ranging from cheesy Dutch Moog arrangements to soul sapping ballads sung by a soap opera loser! There is even time for a dash of post-punk novelty too. Which will be a “platter” and which will be a “splatter”? Only time will tell. There is also the opportunity to revisit an often neglected segment, “Tales From The Shop Floor” which promises the usual confounding stories with the usual dirty denouement. Whilst it’s the same economy comedy as usual, there is a lot of emotional manipulation at play. Eli is forced into making more than his fair share of apologies and Paul is in full on gaslighting b*stard mode, which can never end well.

Ep 437: Eli's Contrition

There is only ONE WEEK left until CheapShow turns 10 years old! A magnificent achievement considering Paul and Eli didn’t think the show was last 50 episodes. All they have to do this week is survive one very simple edition of The Price Of Shite without fighting, threats, verbal violence and underhanded behaviour. If they can do that, then maybe all will be OK. Sadly, it’s not looking good for the Cheap Chaps as the show starts very badly and ends in absolute shock and outrage. Paul is desperately trying to make a rock band name word mean something funny, Eli is trying to become a joke-smith by crafting an equally as desperate gag and The Tales From The Dancefloor rubs them both up the wrong way. The big question is whether Paul and Eli’s friendship will survive the next 70 minutes!

Five years ago, Paul & Eli went for a day trip out to Brighton, to say it didn’t go well may be a bit of an understatement. To celebrate their 10th Birthday, CheapShow is going back again to do it properly… Whatever that means! Paul is determined to truly soak up all the fun of the seaside by being as sober as a judge and Eli has a few ideas in mind for things to do that are all truly awful. What begins as an aimless adventure soon turns into a glorious day out involving swarming seagulls, classic ghost trains, painful beach walking, mini electric train trips, elephant tunnels, “long eggs” and annoying tourists. Will Eli find his seafood snacks? Will Paul stay sober throughout the day? How long can Paul and Eli stay on good terms as the day drags on? Find out in this 3 hour epic walkabout romp!

[Intro]
(Male Vocal, confident)
Ayy, Russell Nomer music!
(Female Vocal, excited)
American Thrift!
(Group Chant)
¡Vamos! Let's go! Find your treasure!

[Verse 1]
(Male Vocal, English lead)
From New York down to Florida sands
Got the best deals right in your hands
Racks on racks, the style's on lock
Ten thousand new things around the clock
Yeah, the price is low but the vibe is high
Find a vintage gem, you gotta try

[Chorus]
(Male & Female Duet, energetic and catchy)
Oh, American Thrift, come on, ¡vamos!
Find your treasure, tu tesoro, you know it's fabulous!
Daily sales that feel like a dream
American Thrift, be part of the team!
From designer bags to rock and roll tees

[Verse 2]
(Female Vocal, Spanish lead)
En New Jersey, la gente lo sabe
Ropa de marca, esa es la clave
Muebles, joyas, un mundo entero
Cada día es un hallazgo nuevo
Por el planeta, es la misión
Ahorra dinero con convicción

[Chorus]
(Male & Female Duet, energetic and catchy)
Oh, American Thrift, come on, ¡vamos!
Find your treasure, tu tesoro, you know it's fabulous!
Daily sales that feel like a dream
American Thrift, be part of the team!
From designer bags to rock and roll tees
El mejor precio, guaranteed!

[Bridge]
(Tempo slows slightly, beat gets simpler, vocals are conversational)
(Male Vocal)
Heard Russell Nomer made this track...
(Female Vocal)
...to take this thrift store to the map!
(Male Vocal)
From a local gem to a world-class name
(Female Vocal)
Join the mission, fuel the flame! Únete al crew!
(Beat drops back in, full energy)

[Outro]
(Group Chant, layered with ad-libs)
American Thrift! The ultimate hunt!
(Female ad-lib: ¡Qué ganga! What a bargain!)
Find us on Facebook, find us on the 'Gram!
(Male ad-lib: Join the family!)
American Thrift! ¡Tu Tesoro!
(Sound of a vintage cash register "cha-ching" followed by a final horn stab)
[End]

After far too much time away, fair-weather co-host Ash Frith re-joins CheapShow just ahead of its 450th episode and what an episode! It’s a nice chunky one that throws Ash in at the deep end straight from the start. They’ve all got a lot to catch up on and it’s been a while since they’ve all been in the House of Sausage and Mash. It all leads to a 40 minute diversion into the sex, drugs and Rock & Roll private lives of comedians from yesteryear! It’s getting censored to F***! After that, it’s time for a classic Price of Shite and, to make things more challenging for our returning guest, Eli’s confidence and ego is off the charts. There is a mix of tat, toys and musical surprises that must be priced rightly and Paul is struggling to juggle his loyalties! One more episode until 450, it’s exciting!

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!
