Description

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

Ep 483: Shipped Family Silverman
2026/04/17
Remember a few weeks ago when Eli popped over to the USA to see family? Well, not only did he bring back a few snacks and treats (as sampled in an earlier episode), but he recorded a few audio packages from his time away. So whether Paul likes it or not (and he doesn’t like it), this week’s episode will be built on the bones of the Silverman family’s adventures. Eli’s playing clips of what he got up to in Florida and when he has his unruly clan went on a cruise ship adventure… with a free bar! This can only mean Paul is in for a rough, raucous listen… and he will be very honest about his opinions of this boozy travelogue!

Ep 482: Licence To Thrift
2026/04/10
With Special Guest: John Rain It’s been a long time coming, but finally, John Rain from the wonderful Smersh Pod podcast is joining Paul and Eli for a 007 themed edition of CheapShow! Paul’s been hoarding a load of James Bond based bric-a-brac over the past few years in the hope that John would eventually end up on the show. As a result, the whole episode is going to be one huge Bond Price of Shite. There are books, toys, games and all sorts of random nonsense in between. John will have to defend his knowledge of Ian Fleming in a 007 Trivia Pursuit challenge and Eli is going to try and bring him down a peg or two! However, Eli has also brought along his own Bond girl and henchman, and Paul is going to have to put up with it! Oh! And there is 007 Coca Cola to try too!

Ep 481: Pepsi Challenged
2026/04/03
With Special Guest: Nick Helm The last time comedian and actor Nick Helm was on the podcast, he said he would return if we did a Pepsi special. Eli and Nick have been banging on and on and on about ruddy Cherry Pepsi Max and Paul just wants it all to go away. So Nick and Eli want a Pepsi packed episode do they? Well, Paul will make sure they’ll all be sick of the stuff by the time this (very long) recording ends! They’ve sourced flavours from across the globe to taste and review… and not only that, but Gannon has a Pepsi themed “Price of Shite” to squeeze in too! It’s another rambling, noisy, frenzied, fizzy pop infused edition of the economy comedy podcast. Hold tight, there’s burps ahead!

Ep 480: Remember The Alamo
2026/03/27
Eli is finally back from his break in the US of A and Paul’s had a week off to try and get some of his sanity back. However, because Eli’s return is so close to the release of our weekly schedule, Paul suggests another one of their patented “real time” episodes to save him a bunch of editing! Once again, they start the clock and don’t stop for 60 minutes! Well, apart from when they stop the clock to throw in a “secret recording” and once again to collect their order from KFC! It’s a foodie episode this week and there are some truly HORRIBLE “Cheap Eats” for Paul and Eli to endure. To make matters worse, they’ve also ordered the Pickle Meal from KFC and after everything else they’ve ingested this week, this final bite may finish them off!

Ep 479: Escape From Screaming Wood (Mono)
2026/03/20
(Mono Version) It may have taken forever, but Paul and Eli are finally at Dering Woods in Kent for some spooky wanderings. Sadly, because it took so long, it’s already getting dark and the Cheap Chaps have a lot to do before they can think about turning around and going back to Pluckley Station. Now that they’re lost in “Screaming Woods” it’s time to have a small (poorly planned) picnic and finish off The Price of Shite. Paul has two more items, one of which should come in VERY handy once darkness falls in this truly spooky woodland. The mist is rolling in, darkness is falling, strange sounds (and people) can be heard in the distance and Eli’s lost all his stuff and is getting very ratty… And that’s all before a VERY long, VERY dark walk home. Looks like Paul and Eli are going to be VERY grumpy again. Additional music by White Bat Audio.

Ep 478: Journey To Screaming Wood (Mono)
2026/03/13
Mono Version It’s finally time for CheapShow to escape the confines of their usual recording space and venture out into the big wide world once again. For their first major “walkabout” adventure of 2026, Paul wants to visit the UK’s “most haunted” wood, which is situated near the equally as haunted Pluckley village in Kent… But Eli and Paul aren’t going there, they are heading to “Dering Wood” to look for something, ANYTHING spooky. It’s also been called the “Screaming Wood” but will the only screams Paul hears be the angry, frustrated and howls of his pissed off co-host? Eli is not happy getting lost in a part of the UK he doesn’t know AND he is very not happy to do it on winding country lanes. Will the Cheap Chaps ever get to their destination? Will Eli be able to guess the price of the shite Paul has also brought along? This is Part One of one of CheapShow’s most calamitous of rambles!

Ep 477: Bad Boy William Roy
2026/03/06
It’s story time this week on CheapShow. It’s been a while since we’ve had a “Dollop-esque” segment and in this episode, Gannon brings along the tall tale of William Roy. In his day, he was one of the UK’s most respected psychic mediums, giving shockingly accurate predictions and personal information to some of the most powerful people in the world. However, it all came crashing down and Roy confessed all… So how did he do it? Paul digs into an old issue of The Unexplained Magazine from the early 1980s to find out about the bold life of William Roy. However, Eli Silverman fans need not fear, as he has brought a load of sauces with him too! He’s got three new discoveries to share with his co-host. There is a Friend’s themed marinara, a Mango Mint cheeky one and one made from bananas, so they could all be awesome, or ruddy awful. You’ll have to listen in and find out the results!

Ep 476: Daring Degustation
2026/02/27
It’s been a while since we had a good old fashioned, full on instant noodle taste test on the podcast, so it’s time to fix that problem this week. Eli has come packing some serious noodle heat with three fascinating new varieties to munch on. We’re sure you will devour their expert opinions. There is a creamy curry one, a pork broth comfort snack and a chili chicken treat, each prepared differently. It’s Noodle Heaven! Just in case things become too much for you, Paul manages to squeeze in a quick new Tomy game called “Spin-fessions” that sparks a few interesting true stories. Oh, it’s a proper tasty pod… and some old faces reappear for some weird, nefarious reason. The plot thickens… See pics/videos for this episode on our website: https://www.thecheapshow.co.uk/ep-476-daring-degustation www.patreon.com/cheapshow If you want to get involved, email us at [email protected] For all other information, please visit: www.thecheapshow.co.uk Like, Review, Share, Comment...

Ep 475: The Colour Of Money
2026/02/20
There is some old school, good old fashioned, classic CheapShow action this week on the podcast! Paul is very excited to share his latest “Gannon’s Golden Games” segment with a game he has been after for a while… The Colour Of Money. Although it’s based on an ITV game show, you’d be hard pressed to remember it OR care, but is the electronic board game as thrilling as the TV show wanted it to be? Paul and Eli will find out. If all that isn’t enough, we open up a new casefile from our “Tales from the Shop Floor” cabinet to share a story that promises to deliver that classic CheapShow horror, disgust and amusement. And if all that isn’t enough, they throw in a few new characters too… Although you may wish they’d throw them out again soon after!

Ep 474: Think Of A Platter
2026/02/13
After last week’s book heavy content, Eli and Paul decide to delight your ears this week by revealing their weird little 7 inch vinyl treats! These musical curios will make you question everything you know… Well, maybe not, but they are definitely “interesting”. CheapShow peaks back into the 1970s and 80s with a selection of tracks that tickle the nostalgia bone. There is some cute New Wave “computer game” based pop music from New Zealand, The Highway Code as sung by some A Cappella vocal group, an awful ballad taken from a forgotten Pirate movie and a flexidisc containing the familiar tones of kids TV favourite, Johnny Ball! Oh… And we have a new food segment on the show now too. Apparently.

Ep 473: Book Nook
2026/02/06
Things have been a bit full on lately, so let’s all just calm down and retreat to Paul’s Book Nook, where he stores the finest charity shop tomes. There’s been a bit of “behind the scenes” drama brewing with a few of the CheapShow Characters, so Eli is more than happy to wander down to his co-host’s cosy chamber to read a few books by the fireside. Gannon’s found a load of interesting books to show off and can’t wait to do so. It starts with a bit of a Fortean trip as the cheap chaps dive into the pages of “World Famous Weird News Stories”, then they talk too long about the various Red Dwarf publications that came out of the 1990s and finally discuss if the “Roger Moore & The Crimefighters” book can be sued for false advertising! As the nights remain cold, why not wrap up warm in the CheapShow Book Nook!?

Ep 472: Tat Craptacular
2026/01/30
Although we don’t look for items from Ali Express, Wish etc, we don’t mind if our trusted audience members send us stuff from those online hives of questionable items. However, sometimes there is too much of a good thing… Or too much of a bad thing… as Paul & Eli are gifted a box that may overwhelm their price guessing senses in this Craptacular Ali Express Edition of The Price of Shite. There are over 20 (!!) knick-knacks, bits of bric-a-brac and weird curios for the Cheap Chaps to (somehow) price up for those illustrious “p’twings”! Who will come out on top, and who will be buried under a pile of crap… and does it matter? Also, if all that wasn’t enough, it seems like a CheapShow side character has been promised their own segment, which is absolutely not going to happen!

Ep 471: Hot Potatoes
2026/01/23
It’s one of those episodes where Paul and Eli are going to be doing a LOT of munching this week as they have a lot of food to munch on. In fact, it’s quite the potato heavy episode as most of what passes the CheapShow table is tuba root based! There are two new flavours of Walker’s crisps to sample, both of them promising new delights for your tastebuds. What will come out on top, the Sticky Teriyaki or the Masala Chicken? It’s the Cheap Chaps time to find out. After gobbling their way through all that, they’ll next tackle Seabrook’s new range of oven ready chips, based on the crisp company’s most recognizable flavours… Cheese and Onion and “Beefy”. If all that isn’t enough, Eli has discovered a new confectionary with an unusual flavour… KFC chicken? Yea. It’s an odd one alright!
