Mono Edition
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!

Ep 442: Another Office Day Trip To Brighton (Mono Edition)

(Stereo Edition)
Summer is nearly over and Paul and Eli do not want to waste a single sunny day, so it’s time for another walkabout episode! This route, as chosen by Eli, is one they’ve been keen to do for a while and now it’s their chance to tackle the length of the New River. The New River is an artificial waterway that opened in 1613 to deliver water in towards London from Hertfordshire. There is no way in hell that the Cheap Chaps will be able to do ALL of it, as its around 20 miles, but they can do a fat chunk of the middle of it! So, join Paul & Eli as they pack up a few snacks and begin weaving their way through North London, arguing, laughing and pontification before throwing in the towel! How far do they get? Will Paul ever be correct in Eli’s eyes? Will the “self-heating” lunch work? Are jokes their forte? It’s all revealed in this epic 150 minute walkabout adventure.

Ep 453: A New River Runs Through It (Mono)

(Stereo Edition)
Once again, it’s time for Paul and Eli to take to the high streets and venture on another Tat Hunt! This week they’ve taken themselves to Broad Street to see what they can get for £10! It’s an episode that investigates the contents of 5 charity shops to fond the treasure amongst the trash. It’s a surprisingly sunny day and the Cheap Chaps are full of excitement for the challenge is… almost. Along the way, they’ll tackle rude shop customers, unwanted flatulence and struggle to find a decent place to wrap up Part One of this random wander. It’s Part Two where the wheels begin to fall off and their best laid plans begin to crumble!

Ep 458: Tat Hunt Teddington Broad Street (Mono)

Walkabout (Demo)

Stereo Edition
After the success of last week’s Tat Hunt in Teddington, South London, Paul and Eli are now in search of a place to sit down and review the stuff they’ve purchased! The Cheap Chaps had a budget of £10 to find as much treasure amongst the Charity Shop Trash as possible and now it’s time to evaluate their discoveries. There is one HUGE problem, however. They have no idea where to go to sit down and pour through their items. What begins with a simple plan very quickly devolves into fighting, confusion, impromptu bus journey’s, altercations with security folk, a desperate search for a toilet, and the possibility that they may not have an ending to the episode! Follow Paul and Eli on another, far more aimless than usual, walkabout romp!

Ep 459: Tat Hunt Destination Unknown (Mono)

DIKY BOHU

From the perspective of a walkabout on Armistice Day in downtown Tacoma, encountering Melissa Chaudhry delivering a speech to a combined crowd of citizens and anti-war veterans. The speech was given both out of great concern for Americans and for the plight of Chaudhry’s detained husband, Zahid, a decorated Army veteran, snatched by ICE just before his citizenship hearing in late August of 2025. Occasionally throughout, Zahid and Melissa’s small children were at her side or in her arms.

Zahid is being held without charges and without medical care at the Northwest Detention Facilty in Tacoma, WA. The Northwest Detention Facility is one of many government contracted operations lining the pockets of private investors and corporations. These operations require significant occupancy and beds filled by detainees to make their money, at which they are succeeding, hand over fist. The GEO Group, the operators and owners of the facility, is generating an estimated $55M in annual revenue for their contract funded by the US government and its taxpayers.

The recording was captured with a simple, utilitarian, binaural rig:
Zoom F3 (96 kHz/32-bit)
Stereo Clippy EM272 XLR mics
Recorder powered by Anker powerbank
Shure earbuds used for monitoring

Recording by A.F. Jones 11/11/25, Tollefson Plaza, Tacoma, WA

_____

The earlier part of the speech, just out of distance from the mics, reads:

“Friends - good afternoon. My name is Melissa Chaudhry. Salaam aleikum - may peace be with you.

I want to thank the sun, rain, earth, and wind, that gives life to every one of us. I thank the Native people who have lived through genocide and chosen, despite the most unjust and destructive violence, to claim love. I lift my hands to you, I honor you, and I am humbly grateful for your welcome.

I also want to thank the organizers, About Face, Veterans for Peace, and everyone who stands here today - including my mother, who took me to my first protest at the age of eight years old, at the beginning of the Iraq War, holding a huge sign that said “Navy Wife for Peace.” She set me on this path, and I’m forever grateful.

Today is Armistice Day—the day the guns went silent.

A day once meant to honor peace, not power. Healing, not domination.

And yet, somehow, over time, Armistice Day was renamed Veterans Day—and in that renaming, America changed what it remembered.

We began to honor war more than peace, and uniforms more than humanity.

But today—here, together—we remember both.

We honor our veterans, and we honor the peace they were meant to be fighting for.
We honor those who served in the hope of building a nation worthy of its ideals—liberty, justice, mercy, for all. And we recognize the betrayal of that dedication, as our servicemembers have been turned into pawns of billionaires, serving the interests of the American empire - rather than the ideals of the American republic.

We also remember that half a mile from where we stand, behind concrete walls and barbed wire, sits a veteran who believed in those ideals.

A man who wore this nation’s uniform.

A man who was willing to give his life for the promise of this country.

A man who is now being held in a place worse than federal prison—by the very nation he once swore to defend.

That man is my husband, Zahid Chaudhry. President of the Rachel Corrie Chapter of Veterans for Peace.

In that low, windowless building on the Tacoma tide flats—anonymous among the warehouses and smokestacks—is one of the largest immigration detention centers in the United States.
Inside, over 1500 people are held in conditions that defy decency: no fresh air, no daylight, no meaningful exercise or yard time.”

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!
