Ep 504: Jingle Jangle

It’s been a while since Paul & Eli span some platters, so this week, they’ve unearthed three unusual musical curios to delight and possibly offend the ears! There is a vanity project from a UK 1970s TV star that swings for the fences, and drunkenly misses… There is also a stage musical that, despite some half arsed research, seems long forgotten… And an 80s BBC kids TV show that takes the Cheap Chaps back to a simpler time! After all that audio nonsense, Paul takes Eli down into his Book Nook to rummage through the pages of “Red Herrings and White Elephants”, which explains the origins of everyday phrases. The important thing is that this week’s episode is a madness sandwich. Eli has a mental breakdown at the start and Paul has his own at the end… In the middle? It’s ALL CheapShow baby!

It's the podcast version of the YouTube version of CheapShow... What the heck are "danglies" and why is Eli so eager to show you all his collection of them? Paul doesn't have much to add, but he will throw in a new, unneccesary character just to keep things interesting for him! What are your favourite "danglies"?

Stereo Version Paul & Eli love a bit of Halloween, so it would be remiss of them to let this special spooky time of the year slip by without them doing something about it! This year, the cheap chaps wrap up warm and wander out into the autumnal streets of London in search of five supernaturally flavoured locations. Some of them you may know, some you may not, but Paul has done some actual research this week and even Eli is impressed with the effort! Over the following 2 hours, they pop by Strawberry Hill House, tiptoe through the tombs of Kensal Green Cemetery, pass the nondescript horrors of 50 Berkeley Square, investigate the scandal of Cock Lane and end up in a familiar spot in Highgate Village. Let CheapShow be your guide to the haunts of London… Just ignore all the inappropriate humour involving dogs. In Mono and Stereo editions!

Who likes board games? Who likes board games based on famous TV shows? Who likes board games based on famous TV shows with rules that make no ruddy sense? Not Paul and Eli! This week, the cheap chaps return to do a thorough investigation of the board game based on “That’s Life”, the hit consumer affairs show from the 1970s/80s/90s! Try as they might, they simply can’t figure how this game is meant to work. Are they idiots, have they missed out an important piece of information, is the game a load of old balls? Only these questions can be answered over the course of one confusing episode. Luckily, they have much more fun flicking through the pages of “U.K. Crisp Packets 1970 – 2000”. A book that does exactly what it says on the cover… and what’s this? A NEW character. Pray that he doesn’t ever return.

It's the podcast version of the YouTube Version of CheapShow... It's time to dive into a big pile of nostalgia as Paul and Eli do a whistlestop exploration of the great British "annual"... a hardback book that made for birthday treats and xmas stocking fillers for kids who love things they see off the telly! Paul's got quite the collection and Eli has already mentally bailed out of this video!

Right, you’ve waited long enough! It is time for the return of the mighty CheapShow, with all the grotty gags and bargain basement treats as before! Join Paul Gannon & Eli Silverman for another episode packed with economy comedy fun. The more things change, the more they stay the same… And CheapShow Ep 501 is packed with more cheap eats, charity shop tat and scatological topics than you can shake a stick at. They tackle a new experiment in potato crisp flavouring, suck on some gummy pasta and try to guess the prices of a truly random selection of thrift store discoveries! So welcome back (or welcome in) to CheapShow 501… Or is it actually Episode One? Hmmmmmmm!

Stereo Edition For over a decade, Paul and Eli have tackled a number of long, weird and tiring walks for their “walkabout” episodes. This week, for our four hundred and ninety ninth edition of the economy comedy podcast, the Cheap Chaps take on their most epic, most arduous and definitely most punishing walk EVER… And all they are doing is walking from Eli’s flat in Harringay to Paul’s place in Harrow. How hard can it be? As it turns out, it’s a ruddy nightmare! What seemed like a cute idea at the start quickly becomes a walkabout like no other. Over the course of NINE hours and around 16 miles, they’ll take in high streets, quiet suburbs, motorways, country parks, winding trails, parkland walks, familiar routes, hot weather, old haunts and accidently dig up some memories from the past decade of CheapShow. It’s an emotional episode with plenty of big arguments, dark humour, dumb decisions and many embarrassing agonies to endure over THREE HOUR and TWENTY MINUTES! You want an Odyssey? Here is CheapShow’s!
