    Ep 421: Tat Hunt: Watford High Street
    Jan 31 2025
    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 find a Book, a Game, a Toy, some Kitchenware, a Trinket and a Party Album, but time it tight and the weather is awful. Will Paul and Eli discover some amazing bargains or fumble their assignment pathetically? Whatever happens, expect the usual carnage that only CheapShow can deliver! Part Two Next Week! “The Evaluation” See pics/videos for this episode on our website: https://www.thecheapshow.co.uk/ep-421-tat-hunt-watford-high-street And if you like us, why not support us: www.patreon.com/cheapshow If you want to get involved, email us at thecheapshow@gmail.com And if you want to, follow us on Twitter/X @thecheapshowpod or @paulgannonshow & @elisnoid www.thecheapshow.co.uk Now on Threads: @cheapshowpod Like, Review, Share, Comment...

    Ep 420: Four Twenty
    Jan 24 2025
    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.

    Ep 419: Genital Snacks
    Jan 17 2025
    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 one PO Box donation later, and the Cheap Chaps will finally have to face eating those “Dick” and “Pussy” flavoured crisps. What the hell do genital snacks even taste like? Sadly, Paul and Eli are about to find out. To make things worse, there is a Doctor Gustav lurking too, desperate to see everyone’s bum hole. Is this week’s episode a new low? There is only one way, sadly, to find out… See pics/videos for this episode on our website: https://www.thecheapshow.co.uk/ep-419-genital-snacks And if you like us, why not support us: www.patreon.com/cheapshow If you want to get involved, email us at thecheapshow@gmail.com And if you want to, follow us on Twitter/X @thecheapshowpod or @paulgannonshow & @elisnoid www.thecheapshow.co.uk Now on Threads: @cheapshowpod Like, Review, Share, Comment...

    Ep 418: Congas, Crocs & Wallys
    Jan 10 2025
    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 music and, as if that wasn’t enough, there is the return of the tragic TrackBot. However, Paul has a plan to help the robot out from his usual mucky misfortune, but will it work? It’s music time!!

    Ep 417: Nightbussin' SL7
    Jan 3 2025
    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”. It’s the Patreon exclusive podcast that sees the cheap chaps picking a London Night Bus route and travelling along its whole length! In 2024 they chose the Super Loop bus, the SL7, which travels from West Croydon in the South of the capital all the way round to Heathrow Airport in the West. It’s also one of the longest bus routes you can take! However, in this particular episode, there is serious doubt whether they’ll actually get to the Bus in time! It’s a mix of travelogue and “real time” psychogeography musings. Journey with Paul and Eli for another laid back Night Bus romp that mixes the dumb with the delightful!

    Ep 416: New Year With The CheapShows
    Dec 31 2024
    NOTE: PLAY @ 22:57 to sync up with the New Year celebrations at Midnight! OK, so we lied! It turns out THIS is the final episode of 2024! We thought it would be fun to record a “real time countdown” episode you can listen to as you await the chimes of midnight to celebrate the New Year. Over the course of 60 minutes (or so) Paul and Eli have a few drinks, think about the past year (but not too much) and dive into a few PO Box offerings to see what treats (or tricks) lie within! Expect the usual mix of muck and mirth as the cheap chaps encounter unusual sexual practices, classic Japanese board games, odd candy, spooky vinyl SFX records and all manner of grubby nonsensical tangents! Goodbye 2024/Hello 2025! Thanks for listening and supporting CheapShow – it really means the world to us!

  • Ep 415: The 6th Annual Office Christmas Party

    Ep 415: The 6th Annual Office Christmas Party
    Dec 20 2024
    It’s the FINAL episode of 2024 and it’s time for the 6th Annual Office Christmas Party! Paul and Eli want to end the year in style so have decided to rent out a room in the newly decorated “Spoff & Pickle” Pub. They’ve got enough to eat, drink and merry and ALL they have to do is behave themselves and not act rude or rowdy. The Landlord seems friendly at first, but it quickly becomes obvious that he will NOT tolerate ANY filthy comedy… If he catches them in the act, there will be consequences. Violent Consequences! With those rules in place, it’s time for a BUMPER episode of the economy comedy podcast. Joining Paul and Eli are special guests Ethan Lawrence (Afterlife, Horrible Histories) and Louis King for a mammoth knees-up (What happened to Ash and Tom?). They’ll be Xmas flavoured snacks to rate, a seasonal dinner Pot Noodle to tolerate, Christmas Trivia to conquer, cracker gags to complain about and some cheap and cheerful presents to share! Will they all survive the party or will the MANY new characters, Eli’s drunken singing, Ethan’s facts, Louis’ bemusement and Paul’s vulgar joke theft lead to disaster? “Yule” have to find out by listening! Merry Xmas and Happy Holidays!

    Ep 414: Joy To The Walk (Mono Edition)
    Dec 13 2024
    There is only one week until the 6th Annual Office Xmas Party and Paul & Eli are in desperate need of supplies! They venture out into the real world to get a bit of shopping done and pick up a few prezzies for the party guests. The Cheap Chaps will start their adventure by exploring the charity shops of Muswell Hill before venturing into the crowded, brightly lit streets of central London. Along the way, they’ll meet a grotty old Santa, a pirate, some inquisitive tourists, an angry shop assistant, deafening buskers and a “winter wonderland” that fails to impress! It’s the final walkabout of 2024 and Paul & Eli will have another noisy, rowdy, silly and predictably anti-climactic journey! Ho Ho Ho! This is the MONO edition of this episode.
