CheapShow - Ep 191: Hot, Raw & Uncut
Episode Date: August 14, 2020After weeks of complicated, carefully crafted episodes of CheapShow, Paul wanted something fast and dirty instead for episode 191.

I can feel the mic wilting.
Is it wilting?
That should be fine.
Rigid.
Yes.
Rigid.
Rigid.
Right, we are recording.
No.
We are.
I'm not ready.
I don't care.
Time is money, and it's hot, and...
Oh, here we go.
I knew this was how you were going to start the show today, Paul.
I want to put down my big, fat, wobbly, throbbing agenda on the table, if you don't mind.
And my agenda is
it's hot
what's the weather
what's the weather report
do do do do do do do
weather report
it's 33 degrees mate
and we're both sweating
our tits off
it is rather clement
rather clement Paul
but it is time
it's time for Cheap Show
Cheap Show chunders on.
But my agenda is,
I don't want to do any editing.
So, what's going to happen is,
we're going to run the credits, right?
And then after that, we have one hour.
We're just going to record for one hour straight.
That's it.
We've got to cram it all into an hour.
This is going to be raw, unedited sex Cheap Show,
unless Eli says something racist again,
like he's fucking doing at the moment,
which is really upsetting
what did I say
that was racist
I didn't
I said nothing
probably
exactly
he backs down
now he backs down
he fucking
he tries it
then he backs down
because you don't have
a leg to stand on
my friend
don't call me racist
fucking hell
how problematic
do you want to get
you
you're the problem you're the problem
you're the problem
I put the fan on
fuck this
it's too hot
do you know
but that's what happens
when it goes above
sort of 33
murder spikes
did you know that
oh more happy news
from Silverman
what do you mean
it spikes
murder
you know
like a pandemic
can spike
a murder rate
can spike as well
but why because people get angry when it's hot
yes
I'm feeling it
are you feeling it
I am on the edge of my tether
I could sort of do a murder
you could do a murder
do a little one
that would be good we could become a true crime podcast
we are our own true crime
like Dexter the Dexter of podcasts.
Yeah.
But real life Dexter.
Point Dexter.
Oh, hello.
No, he doesn't have a voice.
I do a murder.
He's silent.
Point Dexter is silent.
I keep him silent.
Right.
So, Eli, are you ready?
We're going to run the credits and then I'm going to set it along for an hour.
No, we have to talk.
I thought we were going to do a preamble about...
Well, let's do the credits and then do the preamble
and then start the clock.
Yeah.
All right.
Let's do the credits.
Ladies and gentlemen,
in this rushed, Paul can't be arsed,
week of cheap show...
Just keep emphasising that.
A month or two of two and a half
to three hour long episodes.
Yes.
I think it's time...
We all deserve a break from us.
No, you don't do nothing.
So it's about me.
Oh, I don't do nothing?
Paul Gannon.
I'm just a racist
who does nothing.
Yeah.
Is this how you're
going to characterise me?
I won't take it, Paul.
Ladies and gentlemen,
this is this week's
tossed off episode
of Cheap Show.
Roll it.
I hate you
and your fucking
noodle posse.
People love noodles. Go J!
People love noodles.
It's just a fact of Cheap Show you're going to have to learn to fucking accept.
Cheap Show.
Off-ramp, ramp, ramp, off-ramp, ramp, ramp.
Cheap, cheap, cheap, frat-dots. Cheep, cheep, cheep, cheep.
Cheep Show.
It's the price of shite.
Paul Gannon.
Eli Silverman.
Welcome to Cheap Show.
And I go and I nuzzle.
Start the clock.
Start the clock.
It's one hour of Cheap Show starting now.
So, we're leaving the windows open, by the way,
so if you hear any cars going by or buses going... Oh, God, the noise.
The mouth noise has come in.
It can't pull.
Or a bike. Noise can't, Paul. Or a bike.
Noise can't stand in.
As it goes past the mic.
Does that minute sound like a bike?
That sounds like an angry finch of some sort.
The angry finch.
Or badger.
Badger.
Who's got the badger award?
It's too hot for this.
Right, no, what we wanted to say paul yeah was we wanted to just
have a little reminisce about the epic epic episode last week the urine vision song contest
we had such great feedback on that and uh some of the people who were in the competition emailed to
say thank you as well um it was really nice the judges themselves uh in emails to me afterwards
said we didn't expect much musically and what they got apart from food salad
was it was more than they expected uh nick was extremely you know nick helm and brian wecht was
surprised um surprised yeah they were surprised they were uh yeah they were surprised yeah it
was great and the other thing the only other thing is i've seen people calling for a um
somewhere they can just listen to all of the songs yes so could we do a playlist on Spotify
I think we can do that
I'm not quite sure
we can do a band camp
and put it as an album
but just give it away
for free
yeah
or we could turn it
into something to make
money but then I have
to figure out how to
split the money
between all the artists
just they've given
theirs for free
they don't want
you ask them
ask them if we can
that's what you need
I'm asking them now
if you put a song in
if you were on the
12th
you'd be alright being
on the compilation the official'd be like being on the
compilation
the official Eurovision
don't burp like that
it's the fizzy bubbles
in the cold cold drink
we all know what it is
Paul
that's just the process
it's good
anyway if you're part of
one of those acts
who gave one of your songs
it's like stabbing someone
saying it's the sharp sharp knife
it's the knife governor
it's a sharp sharp knife
it's the knife
it tells me
and the fan fans going back on
here we go
oh god
right what else
do we want to say
so we're going to try
with the permission
of the creators
we'll put some kind
of album together
for it
and Chris
the winner
and we could have
the Madden Plop Plops
and Squishy Jim
Triumphs on there
it's all going to be in there
and we could throw in
a few other things
from the previous years
Eurovision
you know the one we did
with Ash
and he did that
sexy baby disco dance
we'll put that on
that you played all of
and turned off
any new listeners there
mate I'll be honest
five minutes into
his underpants dance
fucking hell mate
I'll be honest with you
the track was about 240
I forgot to just edit
two minutes out of it
yeah you should have
edited the chopping knife
the blade of truth
should have come
and sliced off
half of that tune
yeah no but it's it's funny, Eli.
When you're editing a three-hour podcast.
This is not what the cast is meant to be about.
You making the excuse.
I'm not making the excuse.
And we're running out of time.
It's excuse after excuse and blame.
Blame, race card calling, you know.
Fucking hell.
What other abuses am I going to be submitted to
this week
57 minutes left
right here we go
that's not too bad
actually
it's not too bad
right so
thank you again
for your revision
it was super fantastic
it was super super
next month we've got
the awards episode
and me and Eli
have been talking about it
and we are going to do
something different
there will be music with that
the Teen Yeti will be
yeah we've got Teen Yeti
coming back for that
don't you worry
his comebacks and then episode 200 for October so that's something to think about so you know exciting times Music with that, the Teen Yeti will be. Yeah, we've got Teen Yeti coming back for that. Don't you worry. His comeback soon.
And then episode 200 for October.
So that's something to think about.
So, you know, exciting times.
It's exciting times.
Exciting times.
Here at Cheap Show Central.
Chicka, chicka, chick.
I'll be tossing off some more Cheap Show episodes between now and then.
Paul.
Yes.
It's a source report.
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do.
Source, source, source report.
Don't slam the table.
Mate, that's the sauce hitting the table.
People want to hear that.
No, they don't want to hear the sauce hitting the table.
People want to hear every aspect of the sauce.
Here is the sauce flapping out.
There we go.
Nah, what a waste of fucking time.
Now, Paul, I have in my hand a sachet.
56 minutes left.
What is that?
That says Hellman's tomato ketchup.
Now, question.
Yes.
You're the everyman in the street.
Hello, I'm Terry Everyman.
You're Terry Everyman.
Oh, I'm Terry Everyman.
Oh, fucking hell.
I'm Terry Everyman.
Ask me a question.
Half a minute before you make the wibbly noise with your mouth.
I don't know what.
Half a minute.
You don't know what I'm talking about. You don't know what I'm talking about.
I don't know what you're talking about.
You want to do it so badly.
Just to punish me, you want to do it.
Right.
Terry.
Yes.
What are your feelings about Hellmann's as a brand?
What do you associate with Hellmann's?
I mostly associate them with Hellmann's.
With mayonnaise.
Mostly. Mostly. I only trust their mayonnaise.
Mostly.
I only trust their mayonnaise.
You're absolutely right.
Our survey says most people... Thank you, Terry.
You won't be getting a fee.
Well, am I not needed now?
No, you're not.
Go run back to Paul Gannon
and his mouth noise leak.
So, basically, Hellman's is the king king are the kings of mayo they're the kings of mayonnaise and then
recently i've been noticing that heinz has been trying to muscle in on the lucrative
mayonnaise market because it is the you know can you please put the quotation marks around the
word lucrative please why because no one ever talks about marks around the word lucrative, please? Why?
Because no one ever talks about how mayonnaise industry is lucrative business.
Are you telling me you do not think mayonnaise is a lucrative game?
Mate, how much mayonnaise?
You could walk down the street, you see mayonnaise everywhere.
Every shop, be it a large supermarket or a small corner convenience store,
will have the mayo.'s there mate and i've
noticed basically heinz has a mayo and they're trying to trying to say ours is just as good and
just as ubiquitous as helmand's and i've tasted it it's not as good as helmand's strangely enough
helmand's has obviously What the fuck is this podcast
It's a source report mate
Source report
I'm talking about sources
This show used to mean something
It means this is important
Go on
Hellman's have now I think in a counter strike
Are trying to
Are trying to out ketchup
Hind
So they've come up with their own tomato ketchup.
It is the inherent problem with this.
The flavour of Heinz ketchup is so synonymous
with our memory of ketchup full stop
that anyone who brings something else out
is ultimately competing with our flavour nostalgia.
Correct?
As well as a very extremely excellent product.
Right.
As well. I agree.
It's like Virgin Cola
when they brought that out.
It's better than Coke.
Might be,
but Coke's had
a hundred years
on top of you.
Yes,
but that's exactly
what Heinz have tried
to do with Hellmann's
because this is
what I'm saying.
Hellmann's mayonnaise
has the same status
within the world
of mayonnaise.
What else do Hellmann's
do then outside of mayo?
What's the other big IP?
They do all the sauces,
bro.
Do they?
All of them,
including ketchup now.
And it's interesting because they've tried to, they All of them, including ketchup now. And it's interesting
because they've tried to,
they haven't tried to do it.
Stop saying it's interesting.
This is not
an interesting segment.
They haven't tried
to do a Heinz clone.
They've gone for a rougher.
Now, I've got you,
Sashay, here.
A rougher?
Rougher?
No, it's a rougher texture
and a more sort of
deep tomato-y-ness.
So on a hot day like today,
you just want me to suck
ketchup from a tube?
All right, we'll share one.
We'll share one, okay?
No.
No.
Fucking don't.
I don't want to do this show.
You have to taste some of this almonds, mate.
I've got a plastic spoon.
Please put your almonds ketchup on my spoon tip.
It doesn't roll off the tongue, almonds ketchup, does it?
No.
Right, but I was interested because...
Stop saying interested or interesting.
Because it's got a different texture.
And I don't know.
They're playing with the big boys.
I've had this with a fry up and it's been very...
I want a tiny bit, not as much as you put on.
That's it.
Okay.
Oh, God.
Right.
Oh, it's the sauce report.
What's the huff saying?
It smells like...
Actually, it smells like cheap ketchup.
It smells like the ketchup you get in roadside, you know, motorway service stations.
It's that cheap.
It's that cheap vinegary sort of...
Sweet vinegary.
Okay.
Like a daddy's.
Yeah, the huff is very...
Here we go.
Oh, God, a hot doughy ketchup.
Oh, it's much more...
Like...
It's just because it's a hot day.
I don't want to eat it.
Don't put it on the table.
Eat it.
Finish your mess.
I'm not finishing that.
Finish your mess.
It's not as good as Heinz, is it?
No.
It's fine, but it tastes cheap.
It does.
It tastes cheap.
Cheap, cheap, cheap.
Well, it's on brand then.
It's on brand, I suppose.
But cheap in a bad way.
It hasn't got the amplitude uh that heinz
does does it i mean put it one way if you're in a service station or a little chef that would be
fine it's fine and it's not like really i bet that's better than daddy's do you know maybe we
just got better mouth haven't we done this haven't we done ketchup but we didn't do helman's ketchup
that's why it's an update we didn't do daddy's either yes we did did we do daddy's came bottom
of the thing for everything we did daddies
and daddies got done
daddy got done
down and dirty
daddy got done
down and dirty
when we did it on the show
I'm dick daddy
here we go
dick daddy
I'm the big dick daddy
big dick daddy
who's big dick daddy
I want that voice
come on
that's a character
don't waste it
no
big dick daddy he's gotta come to town we're not doing any diversions how many minutes have we got I want that voice. Come on, that's a character. Don't waste it. No, no. Big Dick Daddy.
Paul, stop.
He's got to come to town.
We're not doing any diversions.
How many minutes have we got?
We have got, oh, we're coming up to 50 minutes.
We're at nine and a half minutes in.
So, Paul, just to sum up.
50 minutes and a half out.
Do you think Hellmann's are going to be successful with their new push on tomato ketchup in overtaking Heinz, who dominate the market?
Eli, I don't care.
Well, I think, ooh.
Now, put the ketchup out of the care. I think it's quite a good
source there. Out.
Right, good. That's the source report done.
Back to subsidiary show. Stop touching
the microphone.
Don't stop touching anything. Now get rid
of the ketchup and I'll tell the
ladies what we're doing next.
Source report on the clock.
This is unedited raw cheap show.
That's the end of source report.
Thanks, everybody.
Right.
Oh, dear.
Interesting.
Unedited, raw.
We're in the scene.
Woo!
50 minutes left.
Let's crack on to the next.
It's going to be exactly the same as your intention.
I will rip your prick off if you keep interrupting me.
With your mouth?
You can't even fucking...
No, no.
I'm going to pull it like I'm opening a door angrily.
We're pulling pricks off now, are we?
Pull it off.
You've got nothing, mate.
You've got no speaking.
I'll pull it out like Farmer Giles grabs a carrot.
That's what I'll be doing, mate.
Fantastic, Paul.
Now, come on.
Now, stop interrupting me or I'll rip your prick off.
Sorry, ladies and gentlemen.
Yeah, come on.
Hot day.
49 minutes left.
Right, here we go
we're going to do
oh we haven't done it
in a while
it's time for the
league of snacks and
crisps or something
I don't know
let's crack on
snicks snicks and crisps
we need paper for this
we haven't thought of that
no we don't
I don't care
yes we fucking do
I will not
no
I have lost it
I tell you what
right now
I will not do the league
half the league
this is what's led to the trouble in the league.
Open phone docs.
Open it up.
I want to see it.
And we'll put the headings in now
where we explain what the league is.
Yes, we can do that.
Now, you crack on with what we're doing this week for the league
because it's a bit of a Snick Snack Criss Crap Fantastico.
Good gracious.
Okay, so.
All right, go on. Dear listener so Dear listener
If you're new to the tube show
Welcome thanks for joining us
Don't fucking
I'm doing a bit
You shut up
So hot
I've opened my shirt do you think I'm sexy
No
I'm getting wolfman vibes from you, man.
I am Wolfman.
I am Gannon the Hairy Wolfman.
Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised.
The sexy lethenthrope.
Quite lupine.
The lycanthrope who wants you down his throat.
Not lupine.
Is it lupine?
That's a rabbit.
No, that's what you put in the toilet to clean it out.
Lupine.
That was good.
I like that.
What are the categories?
What are we doing?
Right.
The League of Snacks and Crisps is our scientific...
And all crisps.
And nuts is included as well.
Which is snacks.
Thank you.
Subdivision of snacks.
There's just snacks.
But there's no overlap between nuts and crisps.
Oh, they are both in the snacks division.
We should have just called it League of Snacks.
Well, it's called the League of Snacks and Crisps. And what it is, is our
attempt to objectively,
scientifically and rationally
categorise Christmas snacks.
We have
five
metrics by which
we'll calibrate the crisps
today. Those metrics are, and you'll be
writing them down. I am. One.
Flavour. Flavour. How flavour it is. today yeah those metrics are and you'll be writing them down i am one one flavor flavor how flavor it
what it is how flavor it is just in terms of just how good the flavor is yeah just how it strikes us
yes number two on our criterion list for the league yes texture texture it's a very important
thing with crisps and some would say for snacks in general.
It is.
But how important would you say texture is
for snacks in general, Paul?
Very, because without texture,
what is crisp?
It's just potato water.
It's just potato mash.
Yeah, exactly.
And that, well, that has a texture.
That's a good idea, isn't it?
Crisp mash.
You get crisp and you mash it up.
What with?
Oh, isn't that what...
Brick.
That's what Lee...
That's what Saddam is saying, apparently,
like Doritos with water on them.
Did he?
Yeah.
So like a soup?
Deranged, isn't it?
Oh, yeah, that's the thing that counts him as deranged.
No, it really...
Anyway.
I don't know all about that death and stuff he did,
but all he did in Half-Life is Doritos and a bowl of water.
What a creepy cretin.
I'm saying if you didn't know,
if Saddam moved in next door,
and you thought, oh, he seems okay, whatever.
But then you went round and he was pouring a glass of water into his Doritos.
You'd think something was up.
You might find out he was a mass murderer.
Might.
That's all I'm saying.
Because you'd think he did.
Anyway, what was I saying?
Flavour, texture.
Next.
Value for money.
Value for money. It is cheap show after all and we have
to talk about the financial implications of these snacks and crisps yes like quantity of snack to
price do you get more or less for the value and we talk about old stuff old dog poo here a little
bit of that power hoppers what they call dealy bugs dealy boppers frisbees. Yeah. Slinkies. Dildos.
Oh, dildo.
They weren't childhood toys.
Mankey dildo.
All the rubber's gone.
Madam Mankey's dildos.
All right, now.
So value for money.
Yeah, I've got that down.
Nostalgia.
Nostalgia, very important.
That's what we were on.
And also the... New element. Not new. We've had it. It's always been there. It's what we were on. And also, the... New element.
Not new.
We've had it.
It's always been there.
It's been lurking.
But we did realise from watching a Biffo video that we'd been missing one.
I thought we were going to pretend that we'd come up with a new one.
No, we can't do that no more, mate.
Accuracy is the new metric, which is very important, especially with crisps.
And sometimes it doesn't apply.
Sometimes it doesn't apply.
But if you say cheese and onion, we want to know if it is cheese and onion indeed,
or smoky beef with black pudding and egg.
But how are we going to calibrate
if it's a snack that doesn't have any flavour,
it can be accurate too?
How are we going to...
Well, then we'll say...
You need one of your tricks you did with your Envision,
where they somehow get some points in lieu
of not having any accuracy.
I reckon you can tie it in with flavour.
So if the flavour's good,
we can give it an average of three.
Okay.
Yeah?
Yeah.
Yeah?
Fine.
Just as long as we need to be thinking about these problems.
We do.
Especially as we're doing this episode in real time.
So what's this week's...
Now, we're going to have a league,
and then we're going to have a quick taste afterwards,
if we have time, Paul,
because I've got two other interesting crisp items.
We've done those.
We have not done...
We've done tackies.
We have not done extra hot've done tackies. We have not done
extra hot tackies, though.
Fucking...
Haven't we got all those crisps
over there
that I spent four quid on?
Oh, yeah, no,
we have to do those.
So, yeah, forget them.
Let's just get these
Tato's out the way.
Get the Tato's in the league
and then just so everyone knows,
the other crisps we'll be tasting
won't be in the league.
A whistle-stop tour
of these crisps.
Now, perhaps you'd like
to do an intro about Tato
and why you think it should be included in the league
because it has a...
It's backstory.
A long time ago, I used to do a podcast
with a comedian called Paul McCaffrey,
and it was called Desert Island Crisps,
and now there have been six other podcasts
called the same thing,
and everyone's fighting about the use of that name,
and I don't see the point.
Get over it.
So, anyway, in that,
one of the most prevailing topics that came up
from all the stand ups We spoke to
Was like
It was
Pickled onion monster munch
Was a popular amongst
Comedians on the road
And the second one
Was always
Tater
Tater brand crisps
From Ireland
They were the ones
That they raved about
Every time they went on tour
To Ireland
Tater crisps
Were the buggers
I'm pointing at
A letter at the end
Of that word
For the name of the crisps
Oh
You've been calling them
Tato What did I say Tater. You've been calling them... Tato.
What did I say?
Tata.
Well, I got it wrong.
It's Tato.
Okay.
Just wanted to say...
Also, did you know Tato had a theme park?
Wicked.
In Ireland, where you could ride Chris-based theme...
Crap.
Didn't McDonald's at one point have a theme park?
I don't know.
Maybe.
They used to have themed restaurants with swings and slides and stuff, but I don't know.
They did.
Anyway, crack on.
You're going to cough, are you?
No, I've got...
What's wrong with you?
What are you doing?
It's fizzy water.
Oh, really fizzy water.
I'm drinking some.
Now, Tato, I think it's safe to say the most famous Irish crisp brand.
Yeah, I can't think of too many competitors.
Now, and they are very strangely strangely, are famous for one flavour.
Which is?
Cheese and onion.
Cheese and onion.
But Paul,
do other flavours of Taito exist?
I think there's plain
and stuff like that.
And salt and vinegar.
But they just,
whenever anyone talks about them
or anything,
it's always the cheese and onion.
Cheese and onion, yeah.
And we have two.
A very kind listener
sent these in for us.
Yeah, and there was a note
that came with it
that I don't think you've got with you right now, do you?
But basically the gist of it is that
these are two different types of Tato cheese and onion.
Well, I don't understand.
It's the same company,
but one is the one they sell internationally
and one is the one they sell regionally.
And the person who sent them in did say
that people can claim to be able to tell the difference,
don't they?
That's interesting.
Like Guinness.
When they say about Guinness, made an island against where it's made
and i don't know maybe it's bullshit but we'll be tasting both packs uh to compare them as well as
to just give an overall set deep in ulster's countryside so that's the export that's the
export one right where tato castle have been making some of the world's best loved crisps
and snacks since 1956 using Using the best local ingredients,
Mr. Tater selects the finest,
specially grown spuds,
gently cooking them until crisp and golden.
Finally, in a special part of Tater Castle,
our crisps are then given their unique secret flavour,
jism.
Don't laugh at your own joke.
Insuring you get irresistible crisps every time.
Secret flavour room. Yeah Yeah there's Mr Tato
Knocking his beans
All over the crisp patch
It's like
So I think
That's a smaller pack
It's a different ratio
It's a squatter pack
Isn't it
Pictures on the website
And do we think
That this squatter one
That you just read the back out
Is
I would say
It might be the international one
Because it's got more
You know
International flavour Did you know This packet of crisps That I would say it might be the international one because it's got more international flavour.
Did you know this packet, Chris, that I've got,
which we think is the home version,
the native version,
has an advert for Taito Park on the back.
Yeah, the theme park I was telling you about.
It says it's Ireland's only theme park and zoo.
Yeah, probably.
Weird.
Yeah, there might be other theme parks.
It's got one of those things where you all spin around at the top of something.
Yeah.
And it looks like a lock flume.
Yeah, it's all the fun of the fair, isn't it?
Okay.
So you open these.
I'll open the international, and you open in the...
Okay, we've got to get a half.
Try and get a corner off.
I'm going to do the exact same method Eli does, the micro-huff from the corner bite.
It's not going to work with these.
Right.
I've got it.
Here we go.
Oh. Oh, are they in 28th... Ohth of May these are a year out of date I'm gonna have to read them what you all say mine says
my report say stale my report says staley monkey bad bad Actually I'm feeling really nauseous
I don't know
Calm down
I don't think they're that bad
They're just going to be out of date
I'm going to have this little one
I don't know why it's setting me off
Just don't think about it
Here we go
We've got a taste of crisps
We're running out of time
I'll just taste them Don't think about it. Here we go. We've got a taste of crisps from running out of time. Three, two, one, here we go.
I'll just taste them.
It's fine.
I'll just taste them.
It's fine.
It's fine. I'll taste one of those ones.
Water, water.
The water.
Those are export ones.
Yeah.
What's the difference? Are they all right? I don't know why that set me off they weren't that bad i think mentally i was trying to get over the stale idea right those
export ones to me seem to have quite a low sort of amount of flavor on them talk to the mic please
so i can hear you those export ones for me have a sort of low low amount of the flavor on them
do you know what i mean they're quite plain with a low but i have a feeling of low amount of the flavour on them. Do you know what I mean? They're quite plain with a low...
But I have a feeling that these home ones...
Right, you're sniffing the home ones.
Did they taste stale to you, that one, then?
They're not that stale.
No, I didn't think so.
I don't know what set me off.
I apologise for overreacting, but my brain went,
no, that's the heat, mate.
It's fine, Paul.
They are out of date.
Right, I'm going to taste these.
I'm going to put the fan back on.
Mmm. Mmm.
Mmm.
Oh, God, I just did a verb.
What's wrong?
Are they nice?
They're nicer.
The Irish ones are nicer.
They've got much more stringent, strong cheese flavour.
Okay.
Much.
Taste one of those.
No, I can't.
I can't.
For some reason, I can't.
I've got all these other crisps
We've got to taste some
I'm just realising
That it's maybe not a great idea
Just eat sauce
And crisps
On a hot day
So let's just
I told you this was going to happen
Mate
And you're like
No we're doing one hour
We said this
The same reason we didn't do
A noodle section this week
I've got to score these crisps
Let's do it
It's a fucking undertaking
Flavour
Now you're going to give them Two scores each. Flavour. Are you going to give them
two scores each?
One score each?
No.
You're going to judge
them together?
Or you're not going to
judge the international,
you're going to judge
the homegrown?
They're not as good,
the international.
Alright, okay.
So let's just put these.
We'll say,
whatever you do for that one,
we'll do one less for these.
Yeah.
Yeah?
Right, go.
So what's the flavour
for the tater?
Only on flavour.
Right, okay.
Those just get exactly the same as these.
Well, the texture's going to be slightly mild as a result because it's a bit stale, isn't it?
The texture's exactly the same, Paul.
All right, well, come on then.
Give us your...
These just don't have as much flavour.
Give us...
We're on the clock.
Get on the clock.
Give us your flavour now.
Out of...
How much is it?
Five?
It's a very good flavour.
Was it out of five?
No.
Was it ten? Yes. Right, out of ten. We haven't done this in It's a very good flavour. Was it out of five? No. Was it ten?
Yes.
Right, out of ten.
You haven't done this in a while.
I give it 8.5 for flavour.
8.5 for flavour.
Excellent.
Now, what do you want to give it for texture, mate?
Very good.
Very good.
It's a nice thicker, it's a thicker crunch, isn't it?
It's just good.
It's, I mean, it is thicker, yes, than a Walker's, definitely.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You get more bite. It's very thin, just a it is thicker, yes, than a Walker's, definitely. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You get more bite.
But still thin.
Just a very traditional sort of thin potato chip.
It's not abusively thick like a kettle chip can be.
No.
It's just...
It's kind of in between.
Yeah.
It's a very good texture, actually.
All right.
I'm going to say nine.
Very good.
Value for money.
Now, this is what we don't know because these were given to us in the PO box.
I think they're pretty good.
Yeah?
They've got to be the same as...
So let's just say seven. Seven. Seven and a half. Seven. I think they're pretty good. Yeah? They've got to be the same as... So let's just say seven.
Seven.
Seven and a half.
Seven.
I think that's about the average.
7.5.
Seven.
Nostalgia.
7.5.
Now, this is an interesting one
because I think in many respects
this gets a high score
because it's almost talked about
in mythical terms, isn't it?
It's like,
oh, when you go over to Ireland,
you've got to be aware
of the Tato brand crisps.
Oh, they are sold in small little hovels
and inns up and down
that separate aisle.
But they do seem
very widespread
and you can get them
in shops in London
for years.
But yes.
But the myth of it
almost is a thing.
They have got
a quite mythic reputation
and for that reason,
Paul.
Yes, it scores highly,
but how high, Mr Silverman?
I think 8.5.
Oof.
Eight.
Right, so...
Really? Only eight?
Yep.
I'm going to knock it down a bit
because you get carried away with your.5s.
And accuracy.
Cheese and onion.
Well, the.5s, Paul,
give more nuance to the calibration system,
don't they?
Mate.
And it means that we can distinguish
between fucking crisps better.
Nah, everyone's a...
Otherwise, it all just going to be...
Everyone's a winner on Cheap Show.
Oh, fuck's sake!
Everyone's a winner.
These are corporations.
They don't give a shit about this podcast.
They should.
And you trying to say they're Christopher Allwright.
Bobby Snacks was on the phone the other day to me.
You haven't talked about Bobby Snacks.
Why?
Why haven't you done that?
Really?
Yeah.
Shall we do a Bobby special?
Yeah, we do a Bobby special.
And they said, oh, you should do it.
We can send round sex slaves if you want some.
And you can have them.
Sex slaves. Sex slaves. And I'm the problematic one. Bobby Snacks sex slaves. Yes. Bobby round sex slaves if you want some. And you can have them. Sex slaves.
Sex slaves.
And I'm the problematic one.
Bobby's snack sex slaves.
Bobby's sex slaves.
They're going to love this.
Oh, yeah.
What if they did as well when we stumbled across a conspiracy?
Bobby's dealt in snacks for kids and sex slaves for adults.
Dig.
I'm passing you a metaphorical digger.
Accuracy, Mr. Silverman.
What do you want to say?
Now, interesting, what do you think?
You should try one of the real ones.
All right, I'll try one of the real ones.
Is that or is that not stronger, like a richer flavour?
It's a better flavour.
Yeah.
It's got a nice kind of...
It's got an oniony kind of aftertaste,
but the cheese is underneath there very subtly.
It's a nice flavour, but I don't know how accurate that is. Well tastes of a tato it doesn't taste of cheese and onion does it do you
know i mean i would say maybe an eight for it i think we should go down at least 0.5 from there
all right 7.5 thank you all right so i'm gonna add it all up here we go 8.5 plus 9 is 17.5. Yes.
17.5 plus 7 equals 24.5.
24.5 plus 8 is 32.5.
32.5 plus 7.5 makes that 40.
40 on the nose.
High scoring.
40 is a very good score.
Very good score. I think they're good, aren't they? I mean, I'd eat those. 40 is a very good score. Very good score.
Out of 50.
I think they're good, aren't they?
I mean, I'd eat those till the cows come home.
Yeah.
That's good.
Or sheep.
Or sheep.
Or any animal coming home.
Any animal can come home.
What time do cows come home?
What time do butterflies
reach their destination?
Flutter o'clock.
Okay, Google.
What the fuck?
Keep talking.
I'm going to ask Google.
Hang on, here we go.
Google, what time do the cows come home?
That'll be some wise-ass shit.
Hang on, let's find out.
Cows come home in the evening by 6pm maximum.
Otherwise, they stay out the whole night to party on Indian streets.
Hang on, what's this from?
I don't know, maybe that's some kind of...
They're sacred cows in India.
Oh, they're sacred cows.
Oh, that makes sense.
They get to party.
That's not what I asked.
That was a special, very specific cow that it brought up,
which I thought was weird.
Yes.
I told you it'd give you some shit answer.
Genuinely, when do cows come home?
Let's find out.
Genu...
Oh, no.
It's probably a phrase that you've heard before.
The phrase is usually used to mean a long time
or to refer being really late.
Oh, God.
Bollocks.
I'm sorry I said it.
Right, good.
That's Taito's.
Now, the next crisps.
These next crisps are a new selection from the undisputed king of crisps in Britain
and across the world, Lay's, Walker's in the UK.
And they're always doing this.
About twice a year, they have a whole new suite of flavours,
won't they, Paul?
They like to show off, don't they?
They add squirrel flavour or whatever, the nation things.
They do it all the time, don't they?
They just try and go, they invent.
And then they see if any of these are sort of really popular
and then they'll keep them.
It goes back to that marketing campaign.
I can't remember who it was, though.
They got some famous guy to come in and say,
why aren't our sauces selling better? And he goes, goes well there's nothing wrong with your source but to basically
sell more make more types of sauce different types rather than to be the best at one source
be better at a load differentiate that's why all of a sudden you got like ragu with mushrooms and
in ragu with garlic in and ragu with herb and going back to the source report i think that's
what behind the pressure between the helmans and Heinz to both be kings
of ketchup
and mayonnaise.
And no matter who wins,
we lose,
ladies and gentlemen.
No, we win.
Do we?
We get Heinz and ketchup.
What if Hellmans lose
but we nationally
as a country
think they're shit
but for some reason
they buy out Heinz
and then replace
the formula.
It could happen,
couldn't it?
So it's like the Disney.
Disney.
It could be the Disney
of snacks.
It could be.
The Disney of sauces.
They're buying up all the sauce
and replacing it
with their inferior shit.
Well, I think they might be.
Well, there we go.
Shocking.
Walkers.
What's the new thing called
with Walkers?
Taste, flavour, sensation?
No, it's weird.
I think there's a hint.
Taste icons.
That's what it's called.
So basically,
during lockdown,
people haven't been able
to go to restaurants.
And I think this idea
of these flavours came out of the whole kind
of let's support UK restaurants by making
crisps based on
their recognisable brands.
So today we're going to be
tasting Walkers. Mate!
Fucking hell! Every time
I start a sentence with some actual facts in
you decide to chip in with whatever fucking
boring nonsense, twittering,
ramblingambling farting
babbling
murderous
just go carry on
it's fine
murder spike
I'm just trying to say
I was just trying to say
they're probably owned
all these brands
by this company
that owns walkers
I don't think that's true
I think they just went into deals
I don't think that's true
that's all I wanted to say
he didn't need to try
what a waste of time
I could have moved on
we could have been tasting him by now
we're never going to do this in an hour.
Never.
Well, we're going to find out, aren't we?
Because we are now 9, 20, well, we're basically 30 minutes in.
30 seconds away from 30 minutes in.
Just give it.
Bloop.
Bloop.
Give me the bloop.
Just say what you're going to fucking say and let's taste these fucking crisps.
I spat crisp all over my mic.
Right, so we have got four flavours today from this icon range based on restaurants in the
uk we've got pizza express and that is margarita flavor pizza crisps we've got nando's which is a
chicken for people outside the uk you might not know what nando's is nando's is a chicken
restaurant basically isn't it spicy hot sauce chicken and they've brought out walker's five
pack well this is a five pack nando'sando's peri-peri chicken-flavoured crisp. They spatchcock them, Paul. That's how they do it.
Great. Spatchcock.
We've got Yo Sushi, and they've brought out a katsu curry-flavoured crisp.
Yo don't even exist in this country anymore, do they?
I don't know.
They've gone bust or something.
Well, then why would they have this, then? I'm sure there's a few Yo's.
Yo's were so overpriced.
Maybe they just overexpanded and then had to shrink their market back down again.
I don't know.
I go to my own conveyor belt place, which is Kulu Kulu.
All right.
Much cheaper.
And finally, gourmet burger kitchen with the classic cheeseburger crisps.
Now, Eli and I already had some of these last night, didn't we, mate?
But we're going to go through them again to give you what you need to know about these crisps.
The cheap show seal of approval
no you're not they're not getting my seal of approval right so i'll open the nandos and you
open the uh margarita pizza express i'm gonna do a huff here we go huff it
see there's not much of a strong smell off this and it doesn't smell like
the flavor you think it's going to be but you can smell the chicken in it
they're very similar to roast chicken flavour,
which is a good flavour for more customers.
And as we discussed last night,
as we'll probably find out in a minute,
they do have a tomatoey, herby aftertaste.
And a bit of heat.
A tiny bit of heat.
Now, I've just huffed the margarita pizza,
which are Pizza Express,
which is a pizza chain for those outside the UK.
Outside.
Pizza Depressed, I call it now.
It's kind of...
Yeah, on its arse.
Past its best, isn't it?
Yeah.
As a thing.
Dough balls, that's what they do.
Are all these companies on their arse?
I'm just wondering.
Two of them are.
It's Britain.
Everything's on its arse.
Arse.
Poor.
Everything's up its arse.
This margarita pizza, very much a sort of oregano.
Yeah, tomatoey. Very
tomatoey. The smell's very reminiscent
of a real favourite of mine,
Paul. Walker's
tomato ketchup flavour. I don't keep
circling back round to it. It always comes back to it,
but it's true. They're a great crisp.
There's also a little bit of a
Bolognese flavour to it, I thought. Anyway, let's give
these another little taste now Here we go
They're nice
Bit too tomatoey I think the pizza one
Swap over
Yeah no I would agree
You don't really get the cheese and the margarita
You just get the sort of herby tomato flavour
Which is no bad thing
It's alright
It's reminiscent put it that way of a Pizza Express margarita pizza.
It is, yeah.
It is.
It'll get a quite high accuracy, but it's just that I think it's to do with the process.
Yeah.
Because on a good real pizza, you'll get fresh herbs.
You'll get fresh basil or fresh oregano.
But they're going to have to use dried oregano for crisping stuff, of course, because they're
mass producing themcing them.
And I think that the dried herbs have a certain different quality to them,
and that's what you get in a crisp.
Do you know what I'm trying to get at?
I understand. I get you, mate. I'm on your side.
Okay, I'm just going to eat one of the Nando Nando ones.
Not Nando Nando, the Peri Peri. Sorry.
Nando Nando Nando. Oh, Peri Peri.
That's nice, though. They're really nice.
They're a really nice crisp, I think.
They've got quite a lot of sweetness to them.
Out of the brands so far, these two, the peri-peri, are my favourite.
Easily.
I don't know if it gives me the Nando's experience.
They're sweet.
They're quite sweet, those.
But they are sweet.
Right.
So now we're going to...
They're spicy, but basically it's like a chicken...
It's like a chilli-dusted roast chicken flavour crisp.
Yes.
Yeah.
Which is fine.
It's certainly flavourfulful It's a nice snack
I'm happy with that
There's lemon in there as well I'm getting
Good work mate
Stop, don't start
What?
Don't
I'm giving you the old slap on the thigh
Co-hosty, well done
Stop touching, no touchy
Covid!
Don't you call me that
Come on
What do you want to do next?
Do you want to do the cheeseburger or do you want to do katsu? Katsu You don't want call me that come on what do you want to do next do you want to do the cheeseburger
or do you want to do katsu
katsu
you don't want to have the cheeseburger
whatever you
Paul
I simply picked
cheeseburger
we'll open one pack
you're in charge of Huff
because he is the king of Huff
now cheeseburger
as a flavour
I don't believe in
can I call you Emperor Huff
can I
I want to call you Emperor Huff for this
you can sure fine ladies and gentlemen opening the pack is Emperor Huff. Can I... I want to call you Emperor Huff for this. You can, sure.
Fine.
Ladies and gentlemen,
opening the pack
is Emperor Huff.
All hail Emperor Huff.
Thank you.
Thanks, everybody.
Now, Paul.
So, no voice?
No character?
Do you just
foist this on me?
Emperor Huff?
I'll foist you.
I'll fucking hoist you up
on a leg splitter.
Here comes a leg splitter.
Murderer!
Yes. Yes.
Right.
And the wooden pyramid up your bum bum.
Emperor Hoof, would you like to open the bag?
I just wanted to make one comment about cheeseburger as a flavour comment.
Yes.
Concept.
Yeah.
What does a cheeseburger taste of?
It's not one thing.
No, it's right.
So what I'm expecting is some kind of, this is going to sound weird. Lettuce, tomato, ketchup, mayonnaise. It's the one thing. No, it's right. So what I'm expecting is some kind of this is going to sound weird
but lettuce, tomato,
ketchup, mayonnaise,
It's the meat, isn't it?
Meat, cheese, bread.
So there might be
a cheesy, beefy flavour.
Now remember we had
that chicken and
what was it?
The Japanese snack.
It was chicken and ham
or chicken and meat
and it did kind of
work for both.
But they're geniuses
with their flavour.
I don't know what they do
but they do it well.
I'm going to go for the huff.
I deign to Huff this.
They're umami snacks, but they nail it.
They're juicy snacks.
They nail it.
They nail it.
Yeah.
They nail it.
Right, he's doing it.
The Huff has begun.
He's giving it a deep.
His eyes are closed.
He's focused on the Huff.
It's got that scratch and sniff gherkin flavour.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
They've gone for the gherkin, and they've gone for, like, a burger sauce. When did we last have that gherkin-y Oh, really? They've gone for the gherkin and they've gone for like a burger sauce.
When did we last have that gherkin-y flavour?
This has got it, maybe.
But what was the other snack we had that had that gherkin thing?
Artificial gherkin half in my nosy nostrils.
Yeah.
That's the first thing that came off me.
It's like, yeah, they've gone for the...
There you go.
You have a little...
What was the snack we had that was hamburger flavour
that had gherkin flavour to it?
Remember that?
Was it a few months ago?
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah, you can smell the gherkin.
It's like a...
But, yeah.
I think that's a good way to go with crisps
because, you know...
I guess that is the prevailing kind of scent of a burger
is that gherkin-y, ketchup-y thing.
This illustrates the
problem about making something hamburger flavored because a hamburger in itself is an amalgam food
it's not one flavor which is part of why it's delicious eat it what do you think of that huh
it's not accurate oh very sweet it is sweet but it does have that Burger bite feel Of the meat And the gherkin Weird
It's got a kind of grease
A kind of burger grease
Burnt sort of weird
That's weirdly accurate
Isn't it
Do you know what I'm getting at
Yeah
It's that kind of
That kind of
That is strange
It tastes like
Barbecue beef burger
Yeah
It's that
Burger king
That griddled flavour
Griddled yeah
It's the griddled flavour It's the griddled flavour.
It's the griddled flavour.
I've never seen that before in one of these.
No.
That is quite impressive.
Do you know what I mean about the griddle burn flavour in there?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Right, on to our last section.
That is quite an impressive crisp.
Yo Sushi Katsu Curry, Emperor Huff.
It is time for you to take your huff.
Now, you see, come on.
I will have this.
Yo is definitely on his arse.
Yeah.
And what was that?
We presume.
Who's the brand for the burger one?
Gourmet Burger Kitchen.
They are all on their arse.
Are they?
I've been reading about how Gourmet Burger Kitchen's going down for two years, Paul.
Is it?
Yeah, they are all on their arse.
So what's the other one then?
Nando's.
Nando's is doing well, isn't it?
Nando's is the only one I can imagine that is doing well.
Interesting.
But all the others are literally on their arse.
We had the whole thing with Pizza Express this year,
trying to only barely survive.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That was before COVID, wasn't it?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, there you go.
Yo, definitely is.
They used to have a like a...
They used to have loads of...
They used to have that place in Clerkenwell,
which was their sort of sushi school.
Do you remember that?
Yeah.
That's gone.
The bubble just burst on it, I imagine.
Yeah.
You know, because all the things came in.
It was way overpriced.
I think, you know what I think it is?
You get two blue plates,
and you're like 50 quid, you know.
I think it's shit like Five Joes or whatever it's called.
Five Guys Called Joe.
Those kind of things.
Five Joes.
Come on.
Give us a hoof.
We're 38 minutes into the episode.
I just want to say though Paul Yeah
See with Katsu Curry
That is one flavour
So it's like
It makes more sense
Wagamamas do Katsu Curry
Why didn't they go
With Wagamamas as a brand
You know what I mean
They could have
As a sort of flavour of a thing
It makes more sense
Because it either
Tastes of that
It's too hot
It either tastes of that thing
Or it doesn't
With a burger
It's all these different ways
You could go
There's a lot of different ways
you could go with a cheeseburger
flavoured crisp
that's what I'm saying
I think the flavour
that most of them go with
is the one we taste it
oh
very strong
katsu
it's very
it's more licoricey
than a chip shop curry
slightly more
but on that
very much
on that wavelength
oh
you know what I mean
I like it
very much on that wavelength I love there You know what I mean? I like it. Very much on that wavelength.
I love,
there's a very comforting
feeling to the katsu.
It's a comforting flavour
and smell.
Oh, that's great, yeah.
Yeah.
Here we go.
I've never had a katsu curry, Chris,
but don't think I have.
Neither have I.
Mmm.
Mmm.
Very,
that's nice.
It's subtle.
Yeah.
I wanted a bit more flavour from it.
Did you?
To me,
that tastes almost exactly like
those Bobby's limited edition
chip shop curry things.
Oh,
they were gorgeous.
But isn't it very,
it's very similar,
don't you think?
Similar,
but they had the benefit
of a better texture
to go with the flavour.
It was a lighter texture.
Wasn't it like a fluffy kind of,
More airy,
they delivered it better,
didn't it?
Yeah.
But that's still,
great snack.
Do you think?
I don't know if I could...
They're nice.
Yeah.
Right.
We've done those.
They're done.
That's the last one.
What's your favourite one from the four?
I might go with Nando's.
I think Nando's.
In terms of actual session,
what are you going to have a session on?
Yeah.
It would be the Nando's.
You're going to bash the Nando's
yeah
you're going to bash that cock
we're not going to say
cheeky Nando's
because we're doing it
not to be cheeky
we're doing it
because we're fucking hungry
yeah
and I don't
I don't feel guilty
about buying food
going to Nando's
for fuck's sake
let's have a cheeky
what else would you say
that it wouldn't be cheeky
let's have a cheeky
fucking I don't know
trip to Tesco
you know what I mean
I'm going to have a cheeky Tesco oh I'm going to have a cheeky cheek, I don't know, trip to Tesco. You know what I mean? I'm going to have a cheeky Tesco.
Oh, I'm going to have a cheeky sustenance that keeps me going and alive.
Oh, I'm going to have a cheeky wang.
Oh, yeah, here we go.
Hey!
Hey, come on.
Price of Shaito, baby.
Price of Shaito.
Are you going to agree with me?
No, I said first.
I actually said first that the Nando's would be the one I pick.
Yeah, so I agree with you, all right?
Although I'm meant to be
the Emperor of the Huff.
You're Emperor of Huff,
but I don't have
any jurisdiction here.
You're the stooge of the league.
I am the stooge.
I am the court jester
of the league.
Ha ha ha!
Paul.
I throw crisps at the king.
Paul, permission to...
Yes, he's...
Yeah.
I just deadpanned that
for your amusement.
You did.
I liked it.
It was a good reaction. Paul. Yeah. Permission to throw Yes, he's... I just deadpanned that for your amusement. You did. I liked it. It was a good reaction.
Paul.
Yeah.
Permission to throw something onto the table.
Quietly.
So, we were sent a very, very, very big box of things from...
I believe it was Cal.
And Cal sent way too much stuff.
Cal, I haven't got the note with me now because for boring reasons,
I'm travelling out of a suitcase for two weeks.
Life is funny.
Right, so I don't have the note with
me but we do have what we need to do. A price of
shite because he gave us a big box of all
sorts that we'll get into in later shows but he
also gave us two boxes each. A Ganon crate
and an Eli crate and in the
Eli crate was a bunch of stuff for Eli
as well as a price of shite.
So, Mr. Silverman.
Paul, we need a pen for this.
I got me phone.
All right.
You're going to take down both of our guesses?
I will take down both of our guesses.
So, he's done this beautifully.
He's got a little envelope here.
It's sealed.
You can see that this is sealed, Paul.
I haven't been messing with this.
You can see that.
I can see it.
And it says price of shite, and it's got a list of the items and the little clue, which
is the, you know, it's a tradition in the Price of Shite.
Yeah.
It is basically, you know, the maximum amount spent just to keep us within some, you know, rational.
Some ballpark figure.
Ballpark rational limit.
Limit.
Liminal space.
I'm losing it.
I am losing it.
I'm losing it.
I'm losing it.
I'm losing it because right now all I can feel is the small curtain of sweat that covers my face.
It starts just above my eyebrow and then goes right down to my ears.
Yeah, all drippy, drippy.
Now, it is Price is Shy, and it's a version that we've been playing a lot
because of you, the listener, recently,
because it is a bespoke Price is Shy poll that has been sent to us.
It's complete in its box.
It's boxed.
Like a little, it's here, we're ready to do it,
and I've got the envelope there, and that,
I suppose, those are the answers in there.
I suppose so too. Now, there is other stuff in here as well, but...
Shall I read the letter?
Oh, no, these are the... He also sent crates.
Yeah.
What's in my crate?
Yeah.
Wow.
There's loads of little bits. Let's just pick, what are the ones we got? Let me just pick
out what actually is the price of shite. Hang on. Bear with me. La, la, la. Entertain them. We got that, that. Okay. That. You know what? I was out the one we got let me just pick out what actually is the price of hang on bear with me entertain them we got that that okay that you know what i was out the other
day i saw a plant and i said you can't i saw a plant you fucking lying prick who's doing this
bit paul you're meant to be getting the things out right saw this plant said oh geranium he said no
but i have been on holiday there. I don't get that.
The only reason that's amusing is because you found it so.
That is not a real joke.
Oh, some interesting items here, Paul.
What we thought we'd do is, I've got the full route that we need for the Price of Shite,
but I've picked out two items that I think Eli should talk about,
because there's a bunch of saucers and teabags and stuff in here,
which are all lovely, high chews as well.
But there's those two things there I want us to talk about quickly.
Before we do the proso.
Yeah.
Okay.
And a nice pack of playing cards as well.
Great, shall I just examine this?
No, let's do those two first.
Oh, these two.
Quickly.
Quickly, quickly, quickly.
One of these is a really interesting item.
Talk faster, quickly, talk faster.
Paul particularly likes to collect.
I like it.
Are you going to collect this for me,
or do you want me to keep this?
No, you keep this, because I've got another thing.
I do like it as well.
But you like viewfinder things, don't you, Paul?
I love viewfinder.
And you've recently been repopularising the...
Action Replay.
Action Replay, which is a whole system that uses real film.
Yeah, I've got to take that one by accident.
Take that one, which has bum-bum footage.
I'll take that.
Sold for kids.
Said it had exclusive content on.
Kid buys it.
Reel 3 is from Say What You Like video, reel three, it's from say what you like video,
and there's just a weird picture,
of like their arses,
and then a woman,
with a mop,
cleaning their,
trifle covered arses,
trifle covered,
there's all trifle up the arse,
in that video mate,
it's weird,
there's trifle up the face,
is there like a poultice type,
sort of,
trifle poultice,
mate there's a proper thwacker,
and then she comes along,
with one of those,
it's a grimy looking mop,
like they saw at the corner, of the studio, grab that, slap it on Robbie's ar proper thwacker, and then she comes along with one of those, it's a grimy looking mop like they saw at the corner of the studio.
Grab that, slap it on Robbie's arse.
Oh, God.
Fourth edition noise mouth.
Anyway, so we have a Mickey Mouse Florida Walt Disney World Studio viewfinder.
And what's nice is that it's, is it modular?
No, is it?
It's got little cards that slide in and out.
All the cards are on the key chain that is attached to it and they're from different areas and they're
color-coded there's green yellow red and blue and i'm going to stick the green one in now
interestingly they all relate to different parts of florida so for instance i don't know what they
are but like one's only epcot one's the animal kingdom one's the Animal Kingdom, one's the Magic Kingdom, one is Studios, I think.
But anyway, the point is that I think that must have been a very late 90s, 2000s viewfinder.
Why can't you make it work?
You just haven't put it in hard enough.
Push it all the way in hard, all the way until it clicks.
There you go.
And then it catches the mechanism.
And then don't bang the mic because that's really fucking annoying.
Come on!
You just have to edit that out. Now I have to think about editing that out now. Oh, come on. We're that's really fucking annoying. Come on! You'd have to edit that out.
Now I have to think about editing that out now.
Oh, come on.
We're never going to do this.
Come on.
It's a woodland scene.
Woodland.
That's probably Animal Kingdom then you've got.
Oh, look.
He's clicking the ear.
Goat Mountain.
Goat Mountain.
Oh, Goofy as a pirate.
Goofy pirate.
You know, he's got the hat and all Goofy or whatever.
Eli, you're transported, aren't you, to the Magic Kingdom itself?
That is pretty neat, I have to say.
I love all that shit.
I like it a lot, actually.
You know what I like about them?
It's got that same kind of what the butler saw machines that I'd love to have.
You know, you look through and it's a private little peep show.
And you go, oh, she's showing her fucking ankles.
It's great.
It's sort of novelty photography applications are always interesting to me.
One of the things I really want to get my hands on for Cheap Show, because you can get them cheap on eBay now, is the new Viewmasters use virtual reality.
Are they stereoscopic?
Yeah, and they use virtual reality in your phone and things like that now.
Oh, they do? The actual moving bits?
Yeah, it has a special thing for you. Anyway, I just thought I might try that on the show one day to see where the future's gone.
Source!
That's a great item,
and that's going to go on my wall with all my other bits of crap.
Yeah, it's lovely.
That's a lovely bit of objet d'art, so thank you for that.
Do you think they're still available, maybe?
Of a different type, probably.
This is actually, we've said it,
we can see photos on the website,
but this is shaped like Mickey's head,
and he used one of his ears to click it.
It's a lovely design.
Next is the sauce.
What is it?
Here.
Eli got a great big bottle of sauce,
and it says,
Chili Sauce Flamin' Hot,
and it comes in a grenade-style glass decanter.
It's quite a beautiful thing.
Water, chili powder, spirit vinegar, chili flakes,
garlic powder, onion powder, salt.
No carrots, Eli.
I know, that's good.
That's good.
Does that mean it's going to be very kind of runny and thin?
It will be watery, yes.
But that's fine.
But that's fine.
That's not a complaint.
I don't need my hot sauce.
If I wanted a hot sauce that's gloopy and ketchup-like,
I would go for a sriracha.
Yeah, of course you would.
I wouldn't go for fucking something that's stuffed full of carrots.
And carrots don't add to a sort of smooth-flowing gloopiness.
It's all lumpy
it's all bits
like someone spat
out the carrots
we are anti-carrot
in hot sauce
it's only fly-by-night
cowboys
trying to make some claim
about it's dangerous
or hurt you
or you know
it's extreme
they're the ones that
you know
it's the people who
celebrate the pain
that are actually
ruining the idea of flavour
not the flavour
yeah
now I
because I'm committed to this type of thing stop putting it on the table of flavour now I because I've committed
to this type of thing
stop putting it on the table
it bangs you
we've got 13 minutes left
and we've got the price
of shite to do
guzzle that sauce
on the hottest day
of the year
I'm going to take it straight down
he's going to take a shot
from the neck
oh straight down
oh it comes with a little
little thing
oh I don't know
how hot it's going to be
he's going to take the tip off
he's got a sriracha-y sort of marceline puff
Oh really?
Yeah
He's taking it from the neck
What a man
What a mighty good man
Oh, what's your
Very vinegary and dry
Okay
I'm just going to take a tip off the lip
Yeah
Mmm
It's hot, but you know, it's not like
It's not, it would be
I think that's a build-up heat one
Where after a few dips
A few uses
It builds up
But as it stands
And in texture
It's got little bits
Oh a little bit of chilli
Got corned above you
On the hot day of the year
It's not too bad that
12 minutes
Quite nice actually
The grenade
Hot sauce
Be nice on a piece of meat
Or some eggs or something.
Oh, nice cock.
Right.
Like, you know, Nando's.
A spatchcock.
A spatchcock.
What is a spatchcock?
Yeah, exactly.
Don't try and fucking put me down for saying stuff you don't understand, mate.
Yeah?
Come on, let's go through this.
You asked me a question!
I've gone off it now.
Right, here we go.
A spatchcock is a chicken that you cut down in half and then spatch it out.
Good.
Spatch.
Right, so Price of Shite.
That's it.
Come on, we've got 11 minutes to do this segment.
Spatch fadge.
All right, Price of Shite.
Here we go.
Look at you, fadge.
Right, here we go.
So, there are four items.
The first one Is a card tool
Eli explain the card tool to us
This is a nice
Modular card tool
It's
A rectangle
And all the tools
Sort of
Slot in
To the rectangle
So we got there
Rectangle
No I just drew it badly
I hate my fucking life
What's that?
Is that a screwdriver?
It's a Phillips head
Yeah it's a Phillips head.
Yeah, that's nice.
That's nice.
We've seen some multi-tools, and there's a little blade.
Yeah, that's a bit scary.
It's got like a blade in there.
Well, that'd be good in prison if you needed to...
Yeah.
To knife someone who's about to attack you.
Assert your status, yeah.
Yeah.
Little big man Eli.
Oh, there's another one.
You could get someone's eyes out with that.
Well, no no that's a
What can opener?
You'd be known as like
The blinder
Eli the blinder Murphy
Oh yeah but
In cell 47
Eli the blinder
Why is he
Does he always pull a blinder
No he fucking stabs your eyes out
With his cock end
No why
Why stab with a cock
I can't see
You're disturbed
You are disturbed
You see penises
The last thing I saw was Eli's meters.
Don't go the way I did.
Pay him back his money.
You always see cocks as violent weapons.
Mine is.
That's your main...
Mine is.
Oh, fuck off.
I have the words HMS Destroyer written on the side of my cock.
Right, what's this then?
And every time it's time for love, I go, whoop, whoop, whoop.
We're going down.
Make the mouth noise.
We're going down.
Whoop.
Here we go.
Right.
What's this?
I don't know.
What is that?
Two pronged prick.
Oh, no.
That's a miniature.
Oh, it's a tiny little screwdriver.
Tiny little screwdriver and a tiny little Phillips screwdriver.
Wow.
It must be for glasses and whatnot.
Yeah, that's useful, though.
Yeah, that is useful.
Those are always useful.
What else?
What do you think?
That's it.
That's all.
You've got one blade,
Phillips screwdriver,
a bottle opener, that is,
and can opener.
Right.
It's like a...
What do we think?
I'm going to say that's one pound.
Now, what's the clue?
The clue is that it's spent
no more than £4.50, yeah?
Yeah.
So I'm going to say that was one pound, that.
That sounds like a one pound
on the nose kind of thing.
I'll say 95.
Nine minutes left.
I'll say 95p
95p he says just to try and get the close five p all right okay next is the wind-up torch i get
to play with this wind up it's more of a wind-up bike light isn't it i think it is a wind-up bike
light which is effectively still an act active torch no yeah a bike light and a torch of a
fundamentally the same item.
No.
Calling it something different
is just being pernickety.
No, it's not
because they're designed differently
to do with their purpose in mind.
But they're still torches.
Well, you wouldn't have
a different fucking word for them.
But then what would they call
flaming sticks?
They wouldn't call them torches,
would they?
They'd say flaming sticks
but everyone still calls them torches
so this bike light
is therefore still
a fucking torch.
No, it's not.
You stupid sweating beast.
They are in the same family of object.
They're lights.
And winding this up.
One's a torch, one's a bike light.
No, they're all torches.
They're not all torches.
They are all torches.
Right, if you can listen, if you can fucking sort this out and tell me,
do torch, is torch the family?
Do torch is family?
Is that the question? Everyone, ladies and gentlemen, Torch the family? Do Torch is family? Is that the question?
Everyone, ladies and gentlemen, do Torch is his family?
Are you going to let me see this fucking bike light?
Yeah, it's nice.
It's got a handle on.
It's got a little pebble.
Yeah, it's got a little pebble shape to it, the handle.
And you wind it up.
Yeah, the pebble shape is what makes it a bike light.
Just a Torch.
It's still fundamentally a Torch.
I don't know why you don't have to agree.
It is not.
I'm sweating.
I can't think.
I want to go to bed.
A torch is a handheld light.
So if I touch your dick, that's a torch, is it?
Well, it is handheld.
Is it a light coming out of it?
You know what, mate?
I agree.
That wasn't a good argument.
I'm going to back out of that one.
I'm stopping.
Seven minutes left.
It's kind of flat, and it has a decal. It has a sticker on. Yeah. So it is secondhand because someone stuck that on. I'm stopping. Seven minutes left. It's kind of flat and it has a decal,
has a sticker on.
Yeah.
So it is second hand
because someone stuck that on.
Flames.
Flaming.
And that...
Yeah.
A little on and off.
It's quite nice.
I'm going to say that...
I'm going to say that is 150.
That's my guess for that.
No, you're not allowed
to keep guessing first.
All right, well then you
guess the next two first.
You fuck this up.
You guess the next two first. I fucking will guess the next two first, all right? You guess the next two first.
I fucking will guess the next two first.
I know, because I've just invited you to do that.
Well, we should have been alternating.
That's all I'm saying.
There's close to six minutes left.
Come on.
I'm going to go £1.15.
£1.15.
£1.15 for that.
Next, Mr. Silverman.
Right, we've got the travel adapter, it says.
We're going by the list, not by how your small hands can reach for.
Grab that one.
Aggression level.
I'm going to drop it.
Mate, here's the thing.
I either build it up or I just fall asleep right now in a sweaty puddle.
So it's up to you.
Right, so we can get through this very quickly.
This is a travel-wise universal adapter for power supplies.
It's got all the different...
Now, it don't do the step-up or step-downs you might need,
but it certainly gives you the right adapter.
Oh, it doesn't adapt, but it...
Yeah, I don't believe something like that would have the space.
It doesn't have the...
Yeah, you'd have to have a big adapter step-down.
It's interesting.
It's one of the reasons why now that everyone has USB plug-in power stuff,
you can go anywhere in the world and plug in whatever item with a USB now,
which is, you know,
the future.
I don't understand why
we just don't universalise
power outlets.
You know what I mean?
Well, they are with USB,
aren't they?
I guess they are.
But it's a lovely little thing.
It's the kind of thing
you get in a boot
or a, you know,
double-eight Smiths
in the travel area.
Or about 500 quid
in an airport.
Yeah, true.
Fucking airports. That'd be at least 20 in an airport. Yeah, true. Fucking airports.
That'd be at least 20 in an airport.
All right.
So what do you want to say for that then in terms of price?
I think it's probably going to be the most expensive item,
and I'll say two pounds.
Really?
Two pounds, he says.
Two pounds.
What have I got?
I'm going to say that's...
I was going to say £2 as well.
Can I do the same?
You can.
I'll say £2 as well then.
All right, sweet.
And then our final, finally doodly thing is the what?
Oh, interesting.
These are vinyl or design, record design coasters.
Simple as that.
They look very authentic, like little records.
Yeah.
Spectrum Records, they've got little joke labels.
Oh, love it.
Spectrum Records, and it's tea time.
Speculum.
Brackets, don't spell this.
Don't spill this.
By the nostalgics.
Not a real record.
No, I guess that.
The other one is more in a sort of dance style.
Yeah.
Mate, you...
What?
Yes?
Quick.
We're recording.
We're nearly finished.
Do you want to save your half?
Save me half, please.
Curry interruptions at this late stage in the game.
The other record is...
Vinyl record says,
Protect the surface by the nostalgics.
Yeah, same band.
They must have had a kind of really niche output,
you know, just protecting drinks from spilling.
But they're kind of cute, aren't they?
They're very cute.
And if you're, you know, a music aficiado,
why wouldn't you want one of those?
Because they're shit.
Imagine you look at it and you go,
oh, that's not a real vinyl.
It's just a piece of plastic.
Then one day you go for a laugh.
Oh, I wonder.
And you play it and it's like,
Suck the God cock.
Suck the God cock.
Suck the cock of God. Really? Yeah, and you play it And it's like Suck the God cock Suck the God cock Suck the cock of God
Really
Yeah and you play it backwards
It looks like it is real vinyl
It does
It looks like it
But it's definitely not
Maybe it is recycled
Old kiddies records
I don't think so
I'm going to try it
No we don't have the time
Let's try it
We need to try it
Try it now
But what price is it
Have a think about the price
50p
Oh I think 50p as well
Oh So while Eli decides to see If his fucking record player But what price is it? Have a think about the price. 50p. Oh, I think 50p as well. Oh.
So while Eli decides to see if his fucking record player will play a tea coaster,
let's see what happens.
Oh, do you want to know what will happen, ladies and gentlemen?
I'll tell you.
A lot of noise.
Oh, God.
Don't do that.
Those speakers popped hard then.
The speakers literally popped out of the shell.
That is crazy. I've never seen a speaker do that before like it was about to vomit so was that a waste of time it don't work paul right so as records let's now go through the
thing we've got three minutes left of the show
we award per twings on this show, Paul.
Very quickly, if we get the price on the nose for any of these,
we get two per twings.
If we're 25p either side, we get one per twing.
Just the one per twing.
And if we get them in the right order.
Oh, well, there's no order because we put them any... We're not going to do order this time, are we?
Why?
Because we read it as the letter, read it out.
We haven't put it in terms of price.
So it would be a weird...
We're not doing it. We're not doing that version. If I get it right, letter, read it out. We haven't put it in terms of price, so it would be weird. We're not doing it.
We're not doing that version.
If I get it right, I'm awarding myself three Petwings.
We're not doing that version.
So there'll be spiritual points, not real Petwings.
Are you ready?
There'll be points, not Petwings.
Are you going to count up the Petwings?
So far, Eli, I'm just going to say you have spent £2, £2.50, £3.50, £3.75, £4.40 something, I think, based on all of them together.
And I've spent £2, £3.50, £4, £5.
So I'm probably wrong considerably.
Hopefully, I very rarely win when it comes to this particular conflict, everybody.
One and a half minutes.
I'm hoping betweenwing's happened.
So we're starting with the card tool.
Yes.
What did I say?
You said 95p.
I said one pound.
I'm closer.
It was 50p.
So that's one Petwing for Eli.
The travel adapter.
Travel adapter.
I said one pound 50.
You said one pound 15.
What is it?
75p.
So you win that one again.
That's another betwing for Eli.
Oh, we get betwing for being closer.
Yeah.
Okay, good.
Yeah, because we're against each other.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay, sorry.
I thought that was what the game was.
But we get an extra betwing for being within 25p.
And two more if you've got it on the nose.
This is already complicated.
We've lost track. The torch. He calls it a the note this is already complicated the torch he calls it a torch
we both said two pounds
maybe it's a torch Paul
maybe I was wrong
yeah
it's a torch
it's definitely a torch
two pound
it's one pound ten
so
I guess
we both get one
between each
no we won't
we'll just scratch that
we don't get any
no points
right
no I guess
Paul the rules are quite easy
no points and then the lastly the coasters the vinyl style 30 seconds left We don't get any per twings. Right. No, I guess. Paul, the rules are quite easy. No points.
And then the coasters.
Lastly, the coasters.
The vinyl style coasters.
30 seconds left.
What did you say?
I said 50p.
You said 50p.
£1.75.
Oh, fucking hell.
For the coasters.
Oh, dear.
They saw him coming.
Yeah, they did.
Need to go to that one around the corner with the old lady that always overprices us.
So, no per twwing there for either.
But I do win this week, don't I?
But you do with two per-twings, Mr. Silverman.
Per-twing, per-twing!
So with 10 seconds left on the clock, I think it's only fair that with your win, I announce
it officially.
So here we go.
I've never done this before.
I'm giving Eli all the time in the world, and I'm going to give him his props now.
