    Ep 444: Beep Beep Me Phone Went

    Blimey, something amazing has come in the post! After weeks of waiting, Eli and Paul get their hands on a test pressing of the CheapShow album, which would be exciting if it wasn’t for the awkward threat of Mr Postie! It’s not the only thing that has come in the post either! There is a USA flavoured “Price of Shite”, or rather “Cost of Crud”, this week! The question it raises is “Can Eli continue his hot streak?” and how much will that upset Paul? It’s a P.O.S packed with trivia, tat and trinkets for Eli to gush over! Finally, we return to the often forgotten “Tales from the Shop Floor” segment with an email guaranteed to upset everyone… Which includes its author, Paul and Eli and (worst of all) CheapShow listeners. It’s another rollercoaster of an episode!

    Ep 443: Liquid Curios

    It was a mistake to record on one of the very hottest days of the year. However, the show must go on, even if involves sitting in a small room as the heat melts Paul & Eli’s brains. Paul does have a plan though! He reckons after a slew of epic length episodes; they can afford to throw out another “real time” 60 minute romp that should make everyone happy. As an extra bonus, because it’s so ruddy sweltering, why not spend the episode drinking nice, cold and hopefully refreshing drinks that have recently come their way? It’s a win/win. Let’s just hope these drinks are worthy of quaffing during a heatwave and aren’t a bunch of cheap, nasty bottles of garbage. And what’s this? A new character? Oh dear god, how bad does this episode of CheapShow get? It’s time for a proper quenching!

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

    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 441: Have I Got Spooge For You

    Special Guest: Ria Lina CheapShow is dabbling in a “little bit of politics” this week when Paul and Eli are joined by special guest, Ria Lina! In a new “Gannon’s Golden Games” segment, Paul pulls out a board game based on the topical comedy panel show “Have I Got News For You!”, so luckily the politics and news stories only go up to 2005. Who wins will be anyone’s guess! There is also the added bonus that Ria has appeared on HIGNFY herself, so will her experience help her in an off the cuff board game version of the 34 year old TV show? The answer is probably not. Elsewhere in the episode, Ria must take the rites of passage that all first time guests must endure… a classic Price of Shite with Gannon going all out on the tat. How will she fare? Will Eli go easy on the first timer? Can Paul ever be trusted ever again?

    Ep 440: The 10th Birthday Office Party

    Somehow, someway, CheapShow has lasted a full decade. Ten whole years of tat and treasure, rants and raves, and adventure and abhorrent behaviour across 440 wonderfully mucky episodes! To celebrate the past 3652.5 days of economy comedy, Paul and Eli are doing exactly what you expect them to do… Drink an unnecessarily large amount of booze and bask in their own genius! Over the course of the next three hours, you’ll bear witness to the moral degradation of the hosts as the alcohol begins to corrode their ability to host the podcast. The plan had been to talk about the past ten years, reflect on their favourite episodes and read the kind thoughts and feelings of the CheapShow audience. This soon becomes a major problem, with each email and memory stamped on with drunken buffoonery. In fact, let’s be blunt, Paul has shamed himself this week and Eli has absolutely encouraged it. If you can stomach the ideas of your heroes falling apart over 179 minutes, well, you must be a glutton for punishment. All we can say is Paul and Eli are VERY SORRY for what you’re about to listen to!

    Ep 439: Boffalongo

    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! PRE-ORDER The CheapShow Album, celebrating 10 years of the podcast!

    Ep 438: A Box Of Delights

    Sometimes the CheapShow PO Box is full of all sorts of horrors and shocks, but this week on the economy comedy podcast, there is a refreshing change of pace. A MASSIVE PO Box delivery offers a wide range of charity shop surprises, ranging from super rare board games and fascinating books to delightful 7 Inch vinyl records! There is a LOT to get through, so there is no messing about as Paul and Eli dive deep in the box of treats… Well Okay, there is a LOT of messing about, and that’s why this episode is as long as it is. So hold tight we bounce from Cannon & Ball, Play School, and Disney hits to Chocolate Bar based board games and Keep Fit records… there is a lot to take in. The ultimate question is, who out of Paul and Eli get over-excited the most? PRE-ORDER The CheapShow Album, celebrating 10 years of the podcast!
