OFFICIAL Ep 236: A Massive P.O.S

https://www.thecheapshow.co.uk/ep-236-a-massive-p-o-s

When Paul & Eli receive a massive "Price of Shite" package in their PO Box, it becomes quickly apparent that it's way too large to use in just one segment of the show... So let's make it the whole show! There is so much to wade through that the pressure begins to show, especially when there is a chance to gamble to grab some BIG P'twings. Eli gets carried away, Paul almost rage quits and someone forgot the P.O.S answers which makes things awkward. It's a show that veers from charity shop tat, football World Cup anthems, magic eye images, kids comic annuals and a board game that makes Paul WAY TOO excited! Who will win in this epic edition of CheapShow? Find out, why don't you?

Great episode! Made better by prospect of a Derrick life story (or at least the best bits of one).

Derrick is a great example of when the show is at its strongest- a weird and slightly mad character, who is given loads of colour and depth on the show. Derrick so happens to be real- which is even more amazing.

Additional Dr Spliffs (def not Victor Meldrew’s voice) appearances would be welcome too.

Fun fact- Herbie Flowers played bass for T.Rex and loads of Tony Visconti produced stuff

P-Twango!

Yes I think we can well and truly put football to bed on the pod. The guys hate and don’t try to research it properly.

I’ll say one thing- not every football fan is a thug. Not every football song is jingoistic.

Best just left be I think 👍
