CheapShow

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! www.thecheapshow.co.uk

STEREO EDITION When the sun is shining this brightly in the London sky, Paul and Eli refuse to stay cooped up inside CheapShow HQ… So, they are out and about (yes again!) to go on an aimless wander through another corner of London. This time they’ve decided, for no good reason, to explore Nunhead Cemetery, one of London’s “Magnificent 7” cemeteries. It’s a gothic, spooky, heavily wooded area packed with tombs, crypts, gravestones a...

MONO EDITION The sun’s out so Eli and Paul decide to escape CheapShow HQ and head back to Hampstead Heath for another barely acceptable picnic adventure. This time out, they have a reason for roaming around the heath on a wonderfully warm Spring day. Inspired by the accidental discovery of a Geocache box back in Ep 342 (Gannon's Golden Quest The Third), the Cheap Chaps are going to make a full day of it, using a free to use Geocach...

After two weeks away in America, Eli arrives back in one piece and ready to go with a grab bag of tat and tasty treats to foist upon his co-host. He’s brought with him a few snacks to wrap their tongues around and a special USA flavoured “Price of Shite” … Sorry, “The Cost of Crud”, as Eli would prefer to call it. To make matters more pointless, he decides that points are not “p’twings” this week and instead they are “p’twangs”. Wh...

It’s another week, it’s another familiar episode packed with tat, snacks and … Pardon? Who’s that at the door. Who? Grumpy Sessions you say? Why has he got a big box of VHS tapes with him? Fine. Let him in. Whatever he wants to show us, shouldn’t take too long. Paul and Eli are going to have to tolerate Grumpy’s return to the show this week. We apologise in advance.

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 kitchen...

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 ...

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...

With Special Guest: Stuart Ashen They didn’t mean this episode to be as long as it was. This wasn’t meant to be the epic episode it became, honest! They just thought they’d pop into Norwich, record a bit of a walkabout and then meet with guest Stuart Ashen for a quick Gannon’s Golden Games. Instead, it became something much bigger than planned. Join Paul and Eli has they take a trip to Norwich, tackling national rail inconveniences...

Sometimes Paul and Eli make mistakes, and that’s fine. That’s part of the cut and thrust of making CheapShow. However, sometimes they need to ask themselves just how many mistakes they should really be making in one episode alone. This week, they make a lot. Eli annoys Paul right from the start and the resulting fall out will only prolong their collective agony. Things begin innocently enough with two new chutneys to sample that bo...

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 ...

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 danc...

It’s time for another “Tat Hunt” episode, we think. It’s been too long, that’s for sure. This week, Paul and Eli take to the mean streets of Watford to scour the charity shops for 6 items to bring into next week’s charity shop item face-off! In CheapShow’s history, most of the items discovered in charity shops fall into six categories and it’s up to the Cheap Chaps to rustle them up in a few hours beating the streets. They need to ...

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...

It’s Snack Time again on CheapShow and Paul and Eli have been luckily gifted with some treats from Austria! They have multi-flavoured wafers, garlic crisps, gummies, chocolate treats and fizzy drinks to guzzle and enjoy… But there is also something looming in the background, waiting to show its face… A snack CheapShow promised to eat a long time ago but could never get their hands on. They both hoped you’d forgotten about them, but...

It’s been a while since Paul & Eli grabbed their 7 inches and pleasured your ears with their meaty musical musings. It’s time to see what odd audio discoveries they’ve found in another vinyl Platter Spectacular. There are six tracks to listen to this week, ranging from the wonderful to the woeful! Featuring such delights as dancing crocodiles, Atari themed ballads, rude remixes and conga line party hits! It’s a proper weird mix of ...

Paul and Eli are still recovering from their New Year’s celebrations so, to give you a Friday fix of CheapShow, they’re opening up the Patreon vault to deliver another thrilling edition of “Nightbussin”.
