Looking at pictures from 20 years ago. On one hand they made me quite sad. They were 'simpler times' and sometimes I wonder why things had to become so 'difficult'. On the other hand I can see how far I've come since then and can only feel proud. Time eh?

Its that Sunday again! @cheapshow.bsky.social @ashens.bsky.social @oliverharper.bsky.social are joined by Ryan to play a bit of Jurassic Park The Game! Who will escape the island? Hold on to your butts! youtu.be/zy3Y5bQ8X28?... #boardgames #nostalgia #jurrasicpark Rate, review, subscribe!!!

Time for another bizarre random item I saw on a Japanese auction site!

Comedian Nick Helm returns to #CheapShow to evaluate bargain bin #JAWS themed tat, scoff down some spicy noodles and blow out the speakers on your headphones. Sorry about that! Share/Rate/Review @e-loud.bsky.social www.thecheapshow.co.uk/ep-455-helm-...

Wondering if I should buy a new PC (considering a new compact workstation). It's roughly 8 years old. How often do you all upgrade?

What's all this then? It MUST be the BRAND NEW CheapShow Pin Badge for 2025! If you want to get your hands on one, you've got to come to the LIVE SHOW on OCT 18th at the Cheerful Earful Podcast Festival! Price: £5 Design by Vorratony youtu.be/6OPTBJ0RwtE

🤭 Doing some minidisc artwork tonight...oh and here's a £500 Marlboro branded MD player I randomly came across today on a Japanese auction site.

When I was in Wuppertal I saw a poster for the Green party I liked. Got in touch with them but because all 'Vote Greens' posters were already stuck on walls they sent me the original design document. I had one made...I thought. Somehow I got 10 🤣.Have to see if I can do something with the 9 spares.

What This? New Episode of LXB live now - and it's time to dive into The Crystal Maze! A very fun, but slightly fiddly toy focused board game awaits Paul, Olly and Stuart! @ashens.bsky.social @oliverharper.bsky.social @cheapshow.bsky.social #boardgames youtu.be/-69pqVfubCI

The final days of Summer convince Paul & Eli to take on a new random odyssey, the this week they’re rambling north along the New River in North London for a surprisingly upbeat romp! Ep 453: A New River Runs Through It (Available in MONO or STEREO) www.thecheapshow.co.uk/ep-453-a-new...

Thought badly translated manuals became extinct, but here's a few gems from the manual that was translated into Dutch (🧵)

A particularly cocky Eli goes up against a mammoth Price Of Sh*te this week, and Paul is eager to get some p’twings out of it himself. It’s quite the random romp! @e-loud.bsky.social Ep 452: A Box Of Plenty www.thecheapshow.co.uk/ep-452-a-box...

Who needs 3 minute tracks when you have stuff like this? www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWOt...

@martyr81.bsky.social Do you have any idea what the story behind these particular alternative German street signs is? I found the official font used since many moons is DIN1451 (Eng). This is (obviously) not it. Couldn't find a reference for this one.

In other news, I finally got my act together and booked the train (Yeah, Eurostar 🥲🤐) + hotel for @cheapshow.bsky.social live next month. See you there!

Brought back some cofee with me from Wuppertal, so every time I enjoy a cup I'm reminded of the good times. I love doing things like that, so I try to take home a few food and non-food things with me on every trip.

It's live (ahem from 4am this morning!) and its ready for your eyes!! @oliverharper.bsky.social @ashens.bsky.social & Gannon dive into Waddingtons 90s classic board game, Treasures and Trapdoors! And at one point, Paul finally figures out the rules!! Oh dear.

Chicken energy drink for your cat. Only in Germany.

Getting ready for part 2 (Stonehenge)

#Wuppertal by Night.

Back...to/in the future!

👀🪽

Okay. Quickly came to the conclusion that I need more material to start (😐), HOWEVER the proof of concept just rolled out of my printer and it makes me very, very excited indeed.

Roughly six months ago I bought this from a charity shop, because I thought could do something very artsy with it. Well, that time has finally come. Wish me luck...

😎🌟

✅ Cover idea sent ✅ Interview questions sent ✅ Comic scenario sent ✅ P.O.S. ✅ Noodle pages ✅ Silverman's Platter pages ✅ Feature ✅ Quotes ...slowly getting there 📖

450 Is Near! Trackbot is not in great shape... and if he does down, so does the album AND the whole of CheapShow's existence in the process! What can Paul & Eli do...? Ep 450: Corrupted Data Legacy Released: 22 AUGUST 2025 Available On ALL podcast apps! @e-loud.bsky.social

Really pleased! 😍
