Comedy EN ↓ 500 episodes

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 adva...

Episodes

Ep 66: Bottom Sniffer 09.02.2018

Well, this turned out to be a big one! It's the episode that sees us tasting the most disgusting thing ever to pass our lips. It's also the episode where Eli delivers a brand new "Top 3", we find out what horror lurks at the bottom of the "bag of bags", the cheap chaps discover a most unusual flavour of potato crisps, debate whether you can live off food pills stuck up your arse and try out some i...

Ep 65: Murder or Ice Cream? 27.01.2018

What's popular in podcasts these days? Murder, right? So Paul & Eli decide to jump on that "True Crime" bandwagon and find a story about a cheap serial killer. It does not go well and Eli is not impressed. In fact, Eli is not impressed much in this episode. He is let down by Tales from the Shop Floor. He is upset about the Cheap Eats selection and he is especially not happy about Paul... Who won't...

Ep 64: A Crinkly Bottom Werewolf In London 17.01.2018

It's finally happened... The curse of Noel Edmonds has struck and has dreadful ramification on the whole show! The latest episode of the world's best and probably ONLY trash based comedy podcast returns with all the usual bells and whistles. Elsewhere, Eli tries to bring back the classic "Price of Shite" format but Paul seems determined to ruin it by pointing out as many flaws in Eli's logic as po...

Ep 63: HoP 8 The Gooch 05.01.2018

It was recorded between Xmas and New Year. It was meant to go out before New Year. It didn't. It's here now though! A brand new "informal" off brand episode of CheapShow where Eli, Paul and Ash get to just talk their heads off. In this random stroll through the minds of the Cheap Chaps... Ash explains what "NerfGate" was all about. We discover the wonders of the Gooch. Eli gives us a noodle update...

Ep 62: Merry MinjMuncha 21.12.2017

It's Christmas... Apparently! But don't expect anything special from CheapShow this year... It's just the usual cheap chat, odd tat, Bric-a-Brac and an unusual board game Paul found in a strange shop he'd never seen before... There is something VERY eerie about this game though! Something magical... Oh and Merry Christmas! And if you like us, why not support us: www.patreon.com/cheapshow Share & E...

Ep 61: Don't Touch Me 10.12.2017

Paul Gannon would like to use this podcast description to apologise for the ongoing antagonism and inappropriate contact between himself and his co-host Eli Silverman. Paul will be taking time to reflect on his actions and behaviour and he sincerely hopes this doesn't affect your enjoyment of Episode 61 of CheapShow. This episode features our very first "Tales from The Shop Floor" with some weird...

Ep 60: Eli's Country Noodle Kitchen 30.11.2017

If you have ever wanted to cook noodles in Eli's kitchen (because you obviously must be demented), you finally get your chance as CheapShow finally takes you into a world of pure imaginoodles! Move over Nigella, get lost "Masterchef" and bugger off "Bake Off", this is the cooking show for you! Eli takes you on a journey through his noodle knowledge and he devours some interesting, and surprisingly...

Ep 59: HoP 7 Reddit or Not 23.11.2017

Crisps! The final frontier. These are the continuing discussions of the USS CheapShow. It's ongoing mission to explore new snack ranking memes, to seek out potato based products and to boldly drone on where no pod has droned on before... As well as all that, CheapShow dabbles in some terrible role play as Paul tries to seduce Eli in order for the House of Pickles to get a proper wash down. They al...

Ep 58: Coke Heads 15.11.2017

Has CheapShow crossed the line? You can only find out by listening to episode 58 of the Bric-A-Brac podcast that YOU adore! It's an episode that may upset, may offend and may make people shake their heads disappointingly! Eli nearly breaks Paul mentally with his revolutionary and innuendo packed "Tales from the Dance Floor". The CheapShow chaps put their taste buds to the test with a range of budg...

Ep 57: Spirit Squad 30.10.2017

Let's get spooky! It's another Halloween special at CheapShow HQ and you're all invited along for another episode filled with ghosts, games and grumpy old men. It starts out typically rocky, as Paul & Eli have a very early blow out over Eli's silly voices, but things become a little more steady as the cheap chaps play a ghoulish edition of "The Price of Shite 2.0". Later, we play "Trick or Treat"...

Ep 56: Go For Broke 20.10.2017

What a lovely episode 56 turned out to be! Not a single raised voice, not one moment of anger... nothing. At no point does Eli completely lose his mind and start talking utter random crap. There is never a moment when Paul nearly explodes with anger after Eli purposefully fixes a game. Even when the chaps play MB Games retro classic "Go For Broke" is there ever a time when Eli rubs a small victory...

Ep 55: HoP 6 "Story Time Hell" 13.10.2017

Once Upon A Time there were two naughty boys! Two wicked boys with nothing too. One lived in a happy halfway house, the other in a house built on pickles & despair. One night they spoke about such wondrous things. Things that would set your hairs standing on end and boggle your mind... Of naughty Noel Edmonds and his horrid house party... Of sexy adventures in a house made of fun... Of bizarre lif...

Ep 54: An Acting Masterclass 30.09.2017

CheapShow 54 aims its spotlight at the theatrical stage in an episode dedicated to the life and appalling acting talents of 19th century actor Robert Coates. But is Eli a worse actor? You can find out as Paul reads Eli another demented tale of low life larks. It's not just story time on CheapShow, the cheap chaps also present another "Mi Casa, Su Casa" segment which leaves both pretty offended and...

Ep 53: Don't Get Mad Strikes Back 20.09.2017

You demanded that it returned. You wanted this. After long last, it's back... We are returning to the ugly world of "Don't Get Mad" and this may be the most demented, twisted, hilarious one yet... But don't say we didn't warn you! In this long awaited episode, Paul & Eli go back to basics with a classic Tales from the Dancefloor (one that manages to break Eli), a revamped "Price of Shite" that goe...

Ep 52: House of Pickles 5 31.08.2017

We venture onwards with our 5th trip to the House of Pickles, the supposed "mini" episodes that just keep on getting longer and longer! In this new audio adventure, Eli & Paul wax lyrical about the loss of the word "bastard", fail to create two new segments for the show, come up a cropper when they decide to pinch someone else's Life Hacks and Noel Edmonds is given yet more of a verbal beating. Al...

Ep 51: Life is Cheap Cheap Cheap 17.08.2017

This should not have been Episode 51. Noel Edmonds made us do this. We can only apologise profusely and hope you can forgive us... We watched "Cheap Cheap Cheap". For our sins we watched it, so you never have to. This episode begins as a commentary track for Ep01 of "Cheap Cheap Cheap" but quickly and horrifically devolves into something unforgivable. Eli was WAY too ill to sit through an hour of...

Ep 50: The Big Fat Power Bottom Epic Special Deluxe 11.08.2017

This is it! This is the big one! Our BIGGEST one yet! To celebrate somehow reaching episode 50, we have gone big AND we've gone home. Back to the House of Pickles to record this mammoth pointless milestone of an episode! We are joined on this special occasion by two very special guests. Ash Frith comes out from behind a phone line to join us face to face and he is accompanied by Richard Sandling,...

Ep 49: Bum Eggs 24.07.2017

Paul & Eli tackle more delightful and demented charity shop finds in an episode carefully entitled "Bum Eggs". Why? Well, why not find out? It's a bumper edition of the show to tide you over until the forthcoming "epic" 50th edition and the cheap chaps cram in lots of the usual features. Eli fields a new batch of noodle questions, much to Paul's annoyance... Can you tell the difference between bra...

Ep 48: House of Pickles 4 13.07.2017

It's time for a minisode, live from the House of Pickles! And this episode? Well, it's hardly bloody mini! We spoil you. In this loose and lively podcast, Paul & Eli take questions from the audience with the #askcheapshow hashtag thing. The questions are odd and the replies are just as shady. Also, for the first time, we speak to the first of our Patreon Donors who paid the top tier. As a result S...

Ep 47: Paul Gannon's FrothShop 28.06.2017

Important Note: In this episode we accidentally give out some actual proper advice! We apologise wholeheartedly and promise never to knowingly do it again! With that out of the way, why not enjoy another hour of cheap tat, cheap tunes and cheap laughs. In this episode, Eli rummages through more of his weird and wonderful vinyl... Paul tries and fails to create a new exciting feature for Cinefiles....

Ep 46: That's Life! 14.06.2017

It's cheap gossip magazine time and, as it turns out, there is not too much humour you can derive from articles about domestic violence, harrowing illness and personality quizzes... and it doesn't help that Paul has just discovered a wacky sound effect app for his phone that he hopes will lighten the tone somewhat. He is wrong. Eli, in turn, brings the food for another delightful Cheap Eats segmen...

Ep 0: An Introductory Offer 10.06.2017

Don't know CheapShow? Don't know where to start? Well, how about using this delightful teaser mini episode that sets the scene for the madness that is to follow! In each episode, Paul Gannon & Eli Silverman celebrate the cheap and tacky and try to find treasure in the trash. It's a little pop culture, it's a little nostalgic, it's manic, verbally violent and unlike any other podcast you know... po...

Ep 45: Live & Unleashed and Too Bloody Early 02.06.2017

It's May so it must be another MCM Live Show on the Vidfest Stage... But never one this early!! 11.30am? As a result, this show is a little more, shall we say, "loose"? Either way, you can look forward to the usual rants and raves from Eli & Paul. Ash Frith delivers more astounded commentary and we are (eventually) joined by comedian and actor Tom Bell, who basically walks into an early morning ca...

Ep 44: Cheeky Crackheads & Filthy Mansions 24.05.2017

Ever wondered how to lure a crackhead back to your house? Ever been curious as to who owned the dirtiest, weirdest millionaires mansion? Ever had a violently strong opinion on Iceberg Lettuce? Ever wanted to know Eli's favourite physical sensations? Do you think Paul can go a whole show without a wank joke? If any of those thoughts have ever bounced around your head, this podcast will not so much...

Ep 43: Sexy Eurovision Contest 11.05.2017

It's boom bang-a-bang time as Paul, Eli and random co-host Ash Frith dive into the world of The Eurovision Song Contest in this Europop special. The chaps pick through some of the best and worst songs from the decades old songwriting crapfest to present the tracks that tickle their interest, from meta-music electro-pop all the way to singing turkeys! So join them as they wave a flag, debate some m...
