"Ello, ello, ello! What's all this then?" In this week's economy comedy podcast, Paul & Eli play as Cops & Robbers in a shabby, confusing race through the streets of London... Kinda! It's another Gannon's Golden Games segment as they get to grips with the classic chase game "Scotland Yard". There is also a bumper edition of Silverman's Platter which contains an energy saving anthem, a sickly ballad sung by a green duck, a monkey calypso and an 80s Saturday Morning TV show's crack at the music charts. It's quite packed... And that's without the fact we discover "knock off" copies of our famous CheapShow characters, discuss a rather meaty topic in Tales from The Dancefloor and a quick dash of Shop floor story antics. Enjoy!
119 - BONE HOOVER
We were warned there were more stories to tell. We knew it wasn't over. We were promised something more bizarre than The Brookeside Tiger... and we think we got it, whether we like it or not! With thanks to @VGBasementUK we've got another delightful/terrifying tale from the mind of "Derek" and this one, for reasons you will soon find out, we've called "The Bone Hoover". Elsewhere in CheapShowVille, we take on the 3rd most popular "packaged crisps" in the UK: McCoys and we wrap the segment up with a extra fiery finale. Along the way, discover new "committees" forming within CSHQ, find out what made Paul nearly barf and gasp as we learn the truth behind Mr. Benn. Get comfy, this is a long one!
118 - TAT HUNT: BUM OF JUSTICE
It's Part Two of Tat Hunt! Paul & Eli return home to the House of Pickles with their East Finchley Booty to see who made the best charity shop discoveries. What sugary treats did Paul discover for the Froth Shop? What gets Eli deeply upset and jealous? Who will reign victorious in the first ever "Price of Shite VS Battle!" and also we discover two new characters... That we hope to never perform again. Welcome to CheapShow!
117 - TAT HUNT: EAST FINCHLEY
Something a little different this week as we launch "Tat Hunt". This is Part One of a Two Part series where Eli and Paul pick a place in the UK to hunt for charity shop treasure, gather their wares and then prepare them for next week's reveal! So, because Paul & Eli are lazy, they went someone close in location and close to their heart... East Finchley in North London. A place they both lived at one point, and also at their darkest hours. Will Paul & Eli regret returning? Let's find out! Listen as Eli and Paul take their £10 budget and use it buy some class tat, avoid nosey teenagers, hold their breaths in a very smelly place and apologise profusely for Eli's inability to work a microphone (Genuinely sorry for his loudness. Eli is practically eating his mic!).
116 - SPOFF POT
For some reason, CheapShow asked a YouTube Retro Gamer and Digitiser The Show co-host to come on the podcast. And for some reason, she said yes. So, as a result, this is that episode! Please welcome Octav1ous Kitten to the show!
Paul and Eli welcome her to the CheapShow Family in the only way they know how, by giving her dodgy presents, causing her to choke on milky powder, constantly getting her name wrong, offering her a suspicious Columbian import, dealing with Eli's wrath and literally getting her to split her trousers with laughter. No one deserves that.
Oh and yes, there is also another Winkie update! The Winkie Rabbit hole gets deeper by the week... Somehow.
