Ep 355: Cocklenuts

from CheapShow · host CheapShow Pod

Time is tight this week because Paul has no intention of spending hours editing the podcast when there is a trip to Los Angeles to plan! As a result, this is another one of those “real time” episode, one hour of solid, uncut, barely sensical, almost delirious, economy comedy action. What can they cram in to those precious 60 minutes? Well, firstly they try to guzzle down some unusual sodas. There’s a delicious new Mountain Dew to savour and Fanta have brought out another bloody “mystery” flavour? Can the cheap chaps figure it out? Of course not! Secondly, there’s a Price of Shite to tackle too! It’s rammed with awful items for Eli to guess the costs of. Finally, why is Paul acting like Eli and what is Cocklenuts? It’s a speed run version of CheapShow! So hold on tight, as once we start, we don’t stop until the hour is up!

TRANSCRIPT · AUTO-GENERATED

And you started it. Yes. Well, no, I haven't started the clock. Hella, ladies and gentlemen, work at the cheap show.

This is the cold open to set up the pre-sea of this week's episode. And this is, as we record this, we're a couple of weeks away from cheap show to LA. So I just wanted to do a simple episode and it's one of our patented cheap show, Real Time, barely any edits, apart from sound levels and such. But on the fact, it's a real time episode, one hour as soon as we finish the credits.

That's not real time, then is it? Apart from the cold open, the rec- whatever comes after the credits is in real time. You need to consider it like the episode 24. Bloop, bloop, yeah, but it's not really, is it?

Bloop, no. God, that's not again. No, no, no, no. Hello, ladies and gentlemen, now, due to the fact that our schedule's going to get pretty busy in the next week or so, we decided to make an episode that will help me get one out.

It's not as good. I'm sorry, again. Oh, man. Oh, do you look it on?

Hellio. Shut up. What is with the coffee cold, though? Hellio!

Let me do it again. Yeah. It's all staying in now, isn't it? Ladies and gentlemen, hello, welcome to Cheap Show.

This is going to be a real time episode because it will help me do less editing and a busy week leading up to us going to LA to record some very special episodes. As a result, the deal is we're going to do a real time episode, apart from sound levels and maybe bits and bobs. This will be real time unedited. Eli, how are you feeling?

I'm feeling good about this, Paul, ready to go for a good hour. I think we've got some interesting items lined up and we'll eat them, we'll taste them, we'll sniff, we'll touch. We're going to get as much in this as we can in an hour. We'll trim the little corners off and we'll also go all around it.

Right. I'm here. I'm here. I'm here.

I'm here. I'm here. I'm here. I'm here.

I've got a tinned fizzy drink to wet mine whistle, but I won't drink it on the microphone So yeah, we've also got a price of shite.

We're gonna squeeze in this week I've got a secret sweetie treat for Eli as well, which I think he might find fun And then I've got a kind of charity shop showcase myself. Well, not really. I just brought it along. I'll tell you what it is actually It's called word mastermind.

So you remember that game mastermind. We have a little colored peg and you got a break the code And all that kind of stuff. This is the word mastermind version saying concept, but with the word, you know what basically wordle isn't it wordle Years before you're you're the wordle wordle no it'll you've got How to play all the rules are on the back we'll get into it a little bit later if we get through to it But if we don't mention it now, I like fun balls about in the kitchen with his sausage fingered uselessness that defines his character Right, it's 55 minutes left of the episode and I hope you're enjoying it. I tell you what this is pathetic Eli brought some albums in I tell you what all we've got some great platters on on way for you judging by what you show me See if you follow them blew my mind.

I'll give you a little clue to do with footballers Yeah, we're tackling that all tackling a football game. I've got the only own Talking on stop it. Don't worry everyone. I'm back in the room.

That's fine So two drinks what do you want to do first? Well?

Let's do the Mountain Dew first because I think that's the least oh yeah special is it seriously just another flavor amount juice So let's just give our own his opinion on this one. Yeah, let's go for it Here's a massive cube of ice that can't even get to the bottom of it. It's big big ball look It's not a big ball. You said ball up didn't you just now?

I said wall up wall up. It's a ball look Oh Find you to find douche in the dictionary the dictionary the douche dictionary no I don't think you define it that way and I'm throwing it in the glass with my fingers I want to do the dictionary under douche dish what unzip this unzip that I started that and I had nothing What is fucking wrong with everyone it's crazy? Oh mate, there's I'm looking this up for the next drink But there's a whole thing going on there's a whole thing going on what about well get to me It's one next drink about what other Yes For skinning I was gonna say the foreskin I Do great horror movie folk horror the foreskin a mean every moon every fourth blood moon of the cycle is the skinning You must be for the skinning pulling my foreskin back past Jesus Christ Very she went to the dawn of skin We can do the fucking folk all right now Where's the fucking drink at I don't know you're doing it. Oh behind that album here.

We go I mentioned that we got some good albums come I didn't mention who it was I did pick up quite that good little Hall can you stop doing that please I'm getting really loud sound. I'm sorry because that's like to the finger quite nice to touch Nice to the finger Don't shut up you like okay. Oh now can you honestly that is honestly extreme annoying Start with the jungle of the ice and the jingle Which is one of the records normal wisdom. Yeah, we'll get into that.

I've got no spoilers Are you gonna do that? We're gonna do that this hour? No, we'll do it another episode because I think jingle jangle by your Norman wisdom The mystery musical is perfect for a full on platter. Okay fine fair enough.

It is an LP. Yeah, it's melting due what flavor? Baja passion fruits punch you got 51 minutes left on the clock New you say on the cat. I'd hope so with a blast of a blast blast a blast blast blast blast blast blast blast as in a pooey arse blast blast Winning awards go on pepper spray.

Why do we say that never winning a world? Come on? Even less likely win award someone from an award is listening and then you do that guy who want it I'm not giving him a walking from a walk listen They just listen to the 15 minutes your force to enter together from a year's worth of content to judge you on those 15 minutes and not actually Engage in the podcast directly to know what the overall quality is over series of episodes getting to know the characters and such But no it's all based on a highlight real that you have to pay to do fuck off We're not winning awards no more here Are you suggesting that the podcast industry and indeed the sort of wider new media industry is sort of horribly crooked and sort of I believe the Established radio and audio industry is just create the whole new tier podcasting for themselves to set themselves on the back Okay, I wore themselves with content. They don't really engage on a regular They throw a lot of money at something and they give themselves awards.

Yes, that is what I'm okay I need you to be clear about that Paul and this will be popular I like real of this year's application to the British We don't apply we don't apply we don't apply no more no more all the baja knows Whoo, yeah, what flavor is I wasn't listening? There's a lot it is baja now. They've got a famous flavor mountain juke or baja blast So I think it's a weird sub brand within Mountain Dew right do you see what I mean ish baja like there's different kinds of There's Lucas 8 there's Lucas 8 sport for example, which is a whole range of drinks I like you know, but you know, no within within a brand you'll have like a sub brand mountain Dew baja drinks coming from baja blast which is their first one which was a fruit tape shut up This is actual stuff. I know about a day by baja man who let the dogs out Who let my clogs out Doo shoo shoo shoo shoo shoo Let my baja Atons pods no My blobs out mobs out I know pods and that's what made me though Pods or blobs it's up to you There's a ice you've got your ice there you can't come on This is protracted and annoying strange color what color is it like you don't know what it thought and blue which is a Purple drink a lot of people don't choose blue is purple.

Sorry it is it's lilac. It's a very little bit like an infrared purpley color What do you think of the color? Yeah, very light? Well, it's a nice color But it also does remind me of like a disinfectant it looks like the mouth watch that they give you at the dentist Yes, totally with the little The mouth wash they give you I The mouth watch shut up everyone It was the knife like I need a different report and if that's a quite nice the next like floral quite floral and like Flowery, but it's kind of gin way almost like a gin blossom.

You can't but anacle is what you're saying. So yeah, almost herbal Yeah, let's taste it Do it like in the microphone because I'll kill you you've been rattling your eyes like a can't yeah That's better than the slipples lopels lopels lopes of a man's house stop you must stop that I'll make a concession to you. You're a little bit it though. I know I can't go on when you do it I love my yackity back This drinks lovely.

I just want to say that out. I love this drink. I love it. It's really refreshing Yeah, it's not bad.

I'm looking for more of a That citrus that tartness that real passion fruit has maybe but that's really for the floral herbal stuff like that a lot It's like elder flower a bit. It's a little like a flower It's a sweeter kind of almost but none area version of that. It's very kind of candy floss like but floral. It's really nice.

It's really sweet Yes, but I want more temper. I want more that that no more sweet than Pepsi I want it to be more citrusy more tart on the back end. You know what I mean? I do know what you mean by a bit more tartie on the back end.

What would you give it out for? 4.3.75. Okay. Yeah, I like to do this.

I go for just a flat three. I think fine too bad wouldn't choose it I think I'd choose something else. All right. I'd choose something else.

I drink next one. You just drink Coca-Cola normal anyway Yeah, but I only think my major plate favorite soft drinks are regular coke original and dr pepper and You like it's like a straight up dr pepper. Yeah, I love dr pepper Or baby do I love it? Oh, the pepper car coke where they call it officially.

What did you say? They'll call it pepper coke Then no, they're not pepper style drinks or some pepper sodas Which is fucking weird as well because of what nothing to do with pepper No, the conno you were just going to pop to pop pepper Pepper pop pepper pop pepper isn't what you would associate with the flavor of dr pepper It's got nothing to do with it. Absolutely. You know chili peppers are only called chili peppers because they were looking for pepper corn Right.

Do you see what I mean? Yes. So look let's get on to the next one because it's I'm a bit honestly lost With this ongoing phantigemic now we want to the fanta everyone so go this is another of their mystery Boggles mystery meat drinks that I saw I believe in the fish and chips shop across the road for me Uh, which is a great fish and chip shop. What's the sell-by date for that by the way?

Oh really any sticky one? I don't think this is gonna be good. Um, well, yeah, it's gonna be out of date I personally and this I prepare to drink soda. That's out of date.

Come on. No, I mean worse than happen No, I'm not about poison me to death. No, no, no, no my concern is Depending on what country and what time of year maybe is a different promotion than the UK's mystery drink Did we ever get a conclusion to the ones that have we done two of these now? We've done two we never figured out what the second one was because I couldn't keep track of because they will not they will never just go And here's the announcement what they would do is release like four fucking videos teasing what the next one big at the end You just get lost in the video fog so The fanciallita's mystery flavor.

What do you know what? Year that is because this article that I'm looking at is I can't even see mental floss is on article. Where is the uh the date apparently last year when this was at least last year That was a blue mystery drink. That was when we had blue.

This is lilac. This is a very similar color to the but we had the blue Mountain Jew, but this is milky looking look Paul. It's cloudy. Yeah, it's hopeless It actually looks like the drink we just drank but much thicker in color.

That's yeah, what I just said, but you weren't this one so it's fine So apparently the blue mystery drink was revealed to be raspberry and lychee Eh, but I don't know if that's the same blue drink we had we didn't have a blue one I thought I was a pin that was the one we drank in the park. I were doing a golden quest. Yeah, it was So then they had another one. What was the fanza blah blah blah after a few swigs the tongue went black is what really black?

I can't be around Halloween. They have black fanza don't they that makes you tongue go black. Yeah, okay Well, that's not the question I'm asking for well. Don't you'll find the answer.

Let's just taste it first and then look look online I'm looking online now so we don't waste time and it's just confusing. What do you mean waste time? Fanza turns purple with new yeah, they're the fans of flavor hunt. Yeah, and don't look at the answer because you want to have a guest I guess but I also want to know there is an answer well Because this article that I'm reading is from April 2020.

I'll just play the game then. Don't tell me and I'll just I'm not gonna look on a link. I was just trying to find a little bit of an answer. I can't see one yet I was literally about to say the only I can find right now is Yorkshire Evening Post and it was in April 2023 So see that we had that blue one didn't we?

Yeah, what's the one we ever for that was just a mystery drink as well? It's why lose track we did Mountain Dew. No, what's there a Phantom's like a kaloo-doo? Remember that?

Yeah, but that was good. That was much better. Yeah, they told you and also there was a little clue on the artwork Fans would never do anything that classing but I'm sure there was a Phantom before the blue fans was also a mystery fanza drink I'm sure we did it on the show. I'm sure that blue one was not the first one that we I think we've done two fans It's everybody has been going for fucking years now.

Are you ready for the fucking notebook in here? Are you ready for the milky purple? I'll give you the milky purple. Yeah, let me just get a bit of water out the glass Quickly melting ice.

Yeah, I'm gonna use a difference Different glass all together. Okay, but make sure you get the fresh nose coming off. Okay. Oh That's when the smell really goes up your nose.

See I can't smell much but like plastic. Oh, no When did you get this bottle out of interest yesterday or whatever? Right from the fish and ship shop It might be well out of date because they've just found it the back of their fish. I can't find anything on the nose there I think the smell of the bottle or the plastic.

Yeah smells like plastic. He rotted kind of thing. It does doesn't it? That the drink smells a bit rotty too Old doe-o-e-loe.

We make up a blood there here Well, I'm gonna have a taste of it like stale like stale paper or something like melted plastic Yeah, it's weird It's a bit on the nose actually in the glass. It's a bit well, something off candy floss like Or vanilla ice cream. Oh Hmm. I've got a bit of fizz on the right.

That was quite nice. That's a bit. Yeah, it's a bit. Yeah, it's a bit of a drink It's a bit vanilla I'm getting apple up here.

Oh I'm not a fan of that. No go on you have a go. I'm not saying anything to you. I'll go Oh, yeah, that's definitely a cream soda thing there.

It's a cream or a vanilla ice cream Because we're gonna do a fancy flavor and then that empty aspartame on the back right at the back end Yeah, horrible that tastes. It's almost like it's a vanilla ice cream that falls into a shit apple pie side Yeah, yeah, there's a sort of sourness at the back the kind of almost savory sourness, you know like a Almost salt watery. Yeah, that's been horrible. You know the salt watery thing you mean, you know, I finish That's actually really quite horrible.

That's not terrible terrible, but can I find an answer? Coca-Cola website What's it saying here? Can you solve it blah blah blah this year flavor hunt blah blah blah successful past chat? Oh, I'll tell you anything Doesn't tell you anything that was like just fanta hint at what's in its mist mystery flavors as the Yorkshire evening post Right, so I think apple.

I think apple pie. I think it's apple pie flavor with custard. Yeah, it's kind of like that Yeah, which is horrible apple pie and ice cream now some people have been guessing online. They say cheesecake Yeah, that's a thing that savory what I'm saying that sort of sour savory is almost a bit cheesy Cheesecake is just really the odd call verbatim right now Cheesecake seems to be on the right track as many of the comments that mention the dessert have been praised by the fanta instagram page In response to one of the commentators getters of blueberry cheesecake the fanta team replied sounds delicious, but it is incorrect It's really close have another go so by theory like apple pie and custard in wasn't a bad guess was it?

Definitely someone said it could be vanilla cheesecake. Yes, the brand says was much close to the actual flavor They responded now that is a guess that is heading in the right direction and then the article Obvious vanilla in there isn't there definitely vanilla. Yeah, but that's why I'm thinking if I was gonna make a stupid dumb fucking fantasy drink Oh, yeah, I would maybe call it ice cream vanilla ice cream with like apple pie or something I don't think they put cheese that cheese cake is that what that sort of savory nasty thing at the end is But that to me was a bit more happily like you know like a someone saying here They think it's strawberries and cream. No, I could see that though It definitely isn't but I can see where they're getting that from but then then there's just a little youtube and tic-tok videos All people go sling it down and go it's berries or something.

Yeah, you know, so we don't need to really go into that We've done our own there, but I don't think there's an answer yet. I don't think there's an actual answer to this yet How long so long is this shit do we have to do now? Oh, well, let's have a look 38 minutes left on my phone No, I'm running out of energy so far. Tell you what I've got a little thing that might peppy up really Well, it'll whistle in your step a wish there.

I mean quite literally a whistling is there Which may we so then sent us that stuff right the noodles and in there was also a little bit of surprise the gaming noodle In this episode it's like whistling candies last week's episode the week before the week before that episode So yeah, little whistling candies the little cans are like polo's but we're very narrow whole so you can blow through Hand them over there something at the bottom which could be some kind of like pears tight candy I mean some card holes not even a card in the blister pack Give it to me. Oh, no, wait, you could just fold the fold I got ahead of myself. Yeah, oh, that's got a lovely action I know you're heading yourself mate. I think it's a strawberry kind of chalky candy.

Yeah, it's like a Yeah overweight polo mint doesn't it a chubby polo a chubby pink polo mint All right All right, we get it. Oh, you're paying the very vivid fucking picture I'm gonna put this in my mouth and see if I get it whistling Oh You're swallow my put you pink polo Oh, he took he took my put you pink polo right in his mouth. He's a quite nice and it's very easy to whistle the air strawberry flavor Yeah, no one needs that Paul. No one needs that noise.

He's breaking half. Yeah, I'm I did very crumbly like those old lollipops What's this box for? I think it was no No, it's extra candy. That's a toy.

Oh, is it? Yeah, a little batch. Oh It's a a note a musical note on a wavy wavy quaver, but it's not a proper badge. It's like a little plastic thing.

Yeah Oh, yeah, semi cleft or whatever. It's cool. I like that that can go in my tray of many things It's got a bit of kinder action to it. Can the surprise?

Yeah, so they do a lot of that. Don't they? Yeah, is it Japanese? Yeah, can we think?

Yes, because I've been said it was so I'm gonna go by that Little living strawberries on the back that look like devils in my memories mental state laughing devils on the back of the pack The giggling throw a berry The fusc in inning right what do you want to do more food? Do you want to do the nuts? Are you coming to the fusc in inning tonight? Hold my nuts.

I mean that's right. So Eli is presented some capy flavored called cravers on here But he like that might be their little new Branding thing, but they're just not yeah, but they'll have a new range of flavors known as the cravers What I've explained this to you. You would be doing this shit like the larger thing with the mountain dew It's a little sub brand with inner parent brand. It's necessary.

Just call them steak flavored peanuts or spoilers These are state flavored peanuts everybody state flavored peanuts Now We on this on this show before we discussed poor Disgusting us ready not ready dry roasted yes, we have which we discovered when we covered them That don't look at me like we were going to do in a new end. They're hopefully like we couldn't get there easily Well covered them in our spun. Yeah. I mean That's two words in our spunk.

Yeah, but it would have been a little bit awkward to kind of make that work conceptually we discovered that Oh god, it's a real time episode. Can you please drive roasted dry roasted peanuts? Yes, we're invented in the 80s Yes, the actual flavor category of peanut. Yes, so peanuts unlike potato crisps poor Yeah, I'm not sure to history of taking on the flavor of some other Food which is crisp territory in recent years.

What have we seen chili peanuts? Yeah those lime? Yeah, in Britain and we've seen also Sotten vinegar Right. So the point I'm trying to make is I don't think someone said that hey, I'm getting this steak idea from steak They're getting it from steak flavored crisps.

Right. You see what I mean? Because they can see they see that the makoys for example my watch me makoys have got a very popular steak flavor Tap him a watch. I said you call you steak flavor.

Miss call you steak flavored crisps Which they are I think they're having a moment a popular moment So I think they're trying to jump on but don't KP own makoys as well. I believe they don't know They've got a huge amount of steak flavor. They're made by accident and they've got their like we're doing so they're doing by accident as well I'm as an accident Oh mate great you make a mistake accident Right Give me your stinky nuts. So they're staking up to get anything to say as a ribeye They are Flame grilled steak.

So there's gonna be the issue is I just say to the point of playing they're called cravers When all you're doing is just flavoring nuts Just call it steak flavored nuts to compartmentalize it to some kind of trendy brands only signifies its longevity is not much Well, they're testing it out. Aren't they? Chiny dog dog recordy buff buffs. Come on.

Labor cravers. Yeah, they could basically they could this if this is a hit isn't it? Keep it. Does it say that any other is available in the range on the back?

It doesn't catch up and sop off What could they where else could they go with fish? Hey, have you had a fishy knot? Oh So though fishy peanut no you don't think you could do it like a kind of fish finger flavored nut. No, that would it's the whole concept It's turning me off even steak.

I find a bit weird crab nuts Lots of the nuts lots of the flavored nuts. Well to me see cockle nuts cockle nuts. Yeah, I am cockle nuts from the future The nose on these you can't go there. No, it's not an android from the future hello cockle nuts.

It's just it's that smell of steak crisps They are savory on the nose mother may I and also they smell a lot like He's getting a half power up. They smell a lot of dry roasted peanuts on first with but then behind that you can see oh, yeah It's got that very familiar. Well steak crisp flavoured. Oh, you got that you did get dry roasted I got dry roasted first but that's definitely there but that you know that's simply the mccoise of steak crisp It is the same, isn't it obviously which is it's similar to that fucking oh, here's a monster munch of pickle flavored cake You know normal crisp for walkers.

Yeah, you just sprinkle in your shit on something else. Yes. It doesn't work Right away from the microphone, please We've got a quick talk and because it's real time we've got our side of the camera dip ship What are they? Well, you put too many nuts in your mouth I've got a few of you.

Give me some of that man that mountain dude Go on. It's a lovely drink. I might buy more of this. They still make it Yeah, I've got that in the shop the other day Mountain Dew got all sorts of different flavors.

That's not telling you there that one might be one of my new favorite I really like mountain Dew but that it's tickled me considerably there you go I think um barge art is their caffeine free range Okay, the mountain Dew is like it sold an energy drink these days Isn't it because it's got really a lot of caffeine which is why it became really popular with gaming nerds or whatever? I guess I don't really know It had a big cult sort of gaming nerd thing moment didn't it maybe in the 90s Because it was like mountain Dew was very much a 90. Well, I don't know the history of mountain Dew We may have called it. I forgot them, but I'm gathering it's older than that It's older than the moment in the 90s.

It became kind of the hyper 90s product Like sunny day it was part of the 90s. What the fucking drinking phase Right. Well, that was nice. I mean and I've just put it up against the um fanta.

Yeah, that fanta is um, it's horrible horrible Monkey muckabook. Can we win something by getting it right though? And I don't think anyone does do they they just say oh, that's what it was next year something different Well, we'll come back to you guys when we know what it was yet and then I won't follow it up I couldn't find the one from the blue because I'll never know Stop it. Stop it.

Right. So uh, do you want to do your charity shop showcase now daddy? Okay, or do you want to do price of shite? Oh, we got a whole price of shite.

Yeah, I have to watch through it though to speed round ding ding I think we should do the price of shite because that can be really quickly. Let's get the meat the meat out Right. I'm eat of this rest of this episode. Unfortunately, I can't play this because I had to see the scores because the way Oh, you know, you know, you know Unanswerable between the sweetest kind so I can get between and no one else can have them.

No one else can have them You could get no betweens at all right now unless I get a donut unless I get a donut all the betweens are mine And everyone looks at me and they say Eli you are great as you've got a between 2d and they say he like his a plate of lots of nice Surthings eat them up like a little mushroom right shut up now because obviously you have trouble as well filling when I'm not A little speak. I was enjoying that for once in my fucking life for once in my life. I got something to snuggle on right Oh, there we go. Look at coldy looking horn last week get over it Two weeks ago, right?

Right. Two weeks ago. You prick you prick. I don't need two weeks ago from the record No, it's not even though it's in terms of timelines in like time relative dimension that happened like an hour ago in terms of podcast time It was last week.

So there's no there's no fortnightness to it. So shuttle. Oh, you've just ruined the end I've not ruined the energy you've buffed it right is this it I'm gone. Is this a bespoke a price of shine?

It's been sent it's been sent in the PO box and it comes with a letter and he's just double check something so I make sure those Between that's the between envelope you're opening. It's look at him. He loves it He's so used to going in the between delving straight into it looking cheating Yeah, I'm not cheating you. I'm like how I don't care if you win or lose to me.

It's how you play the game right? So here's the letter and it says thus do you have a pen and paper? Don't worry about it. You always need pen and paper How about you go fetch it?

Well, I read the letter out. Sorry. I don't get to hear the letter then do I? You listen to the episode I don't I sometimes don't listen back.

He's got a die a lonely death covered in Spoffey weft no, I'm not Spoffey weft death right up Twat dear Paul Neelike I was introduced introduced to your show by my friend Jeff You may remember him as one of the one who got the sign a picture of no lemons at the last gig live Oh last digi life.

I vaguely remember that I have listened to every episode Since the first lockdown this was while working in a shit chemical factory Christ who ripped the public off selling them over priced and sanitizer They weren't big fans of the PPE either so when filling powder dies it would stain your skin Okay, I look like a smurf for three days. It's staying so bad. So they had to die some stuff and oh God blue Christ So I'm glad our podcast got you through that then Sounds good with the help of a couple of my kids We have done a price of shite are we have picked the shite up at a place called? I think it says emmas in bed for sure This is for Eli now, I guess usual rules apply But one item was free because the bloke at the till couldn't be bothered to scan it So the price the window that you're in the limit is five pound and ten pence was what it all cost combined right?

510 is the scene is the scene the actual price of getting yes before to see you at the night Did you live yes, you will see us at the cheerful evil show and wait and who is that it is from? Danny, thank you Danny. Thank you very much Danny. I hope your kids aren't too young Here's I think Danny just got the kids to help They're not big fans of the show.

I don't I don't know Kids wouldn't be good. No wouldn't be good kids listen to them Do you need a pen and paper if you have to write down my guess is go on did you think of that did you having a Matcha go at me about the glasses in the beginning episode of a pen I could do right on this. Oh, yeah But I still have to get your pen don't I stop just looking you just like there's a pen somewhere Yeah, there is right here. I mean ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha He's quiet doesn't matter right now.

I've just proved you wrong evil without being prepared I was more prepared than you What's up, how about that Eli ooh stinky dick stinky dick, right? I'm just saying what you say now sort of back at you Yeah, Paul is great. I won. Well, repeat that.

I said Paul is great. I wouldn't repeat that. Why not? You just said I'm a repeat effort.

You say no. I only say something amusing. Item number one. Oh, it's number one.

Oh! Oh! Well, that's not fair. It's not fair.

Oh! You see what I mean? Yeah. Okay.

So just pass it. Oh, you missed it. No, I didn't throw it out yet. Because if I would have already...

Oh, I'm so bad. You do pick that up from your T. Fuck you. This is...

God. Paul. You're ruining the energy. Like, introducing actual physical violence into the arena.

It adds a bit of sexual frisbee. It does not. Maybe your plan says... You might get the big dead and rub down.

No, my job's on full blood on the road right now. It's churning out content, if you know what I mean. Collins, this is a nice item actually, despite your toxicity and violence. This is a nice thing.

Collins' gem. It's a little book, tiny little book, pocketbook, you could say. Collins' gem. Mine is left of this week's episode.

Mushrooms and toadstools. Photo guide. I like this a lot. So this means you can pick up mushrooms and not pick the bad ones that kill you.

It's a little mushroom guide. Yes. That's good. I like that.

It's handy in it. You like mushrooms, don't you, Eli? I do. I really do have all the psychedelic ones in the country.

No, it will. Because you think you put them in there. It will have some sights, some native. There's not many psychedelic mushrooms that grow here.

Liberty caps being the big ones. Okay. But when people take sort of mushrooms from the illegal market, whatever, they're usually kick grown, which has cubensis scores, spores, which are... They send you the spores and you grow them in a little box sort of thing.

Yeah, but there are liberty caps that grow all across Northern Europe. And this is the time of the year for it to actually pick them. Well, that's what we're going to do. And on this week's episode of Team So we're going to pick in from drunken patients.

The first experience with psychedelic mushrooms. Oh, really? I haven't picked them myself. Oh, I didn't actually.

That's an eye. I actually got sold some. It was a Wednesday night. I got them myself.

No, it was around that time. I did pick a huge batch around that time. How much do you think the book is missing? The point I was going to start with is they will list them, but they won't say it gets you high.

They'll say inedible or poisonous. Just to put people off. Guaranteed to rip your mind. I want to say that.

This is the good shit. You don't encourage that because I told you that story before. You don't know. And just are flippant and gung ho about just picking mushrooms and seeing their psychedelic.

You could literally kill yourself. If you decide to go wild, watch your picking. Make sure you know what you're fucking doing. If you don't do it at all, don't be a prick.

I was much younger than when I was picking. But how much do you think that book is going to cost? Oh. Five, ten, how many items?

Oh, good question. Let me double check. I don't know what sort of things. Let me go to the answers.

So there's five items remembering that. One of them is free. Okay. But there's no way of knowing which is free because they said they could be asked to scan it.

That's, I was going to say, well, that's something I love about charity shopping. Sometimes, because the people there are volunteers and like sometimes they just let you off stuff because they can't be asked. They're quite old as well. I mean, you're not going to argue with them because then it just prolongs the whole thing.

I mean, I'm perfect. Obviously, if I take something up to the counter, I'm prepared to pay whatever it costs, you know, because I'm buying stuff. But you know, then sometimes I'll throw that in. I put this down to £50.

Is that okay? Yeah. It's only a five. Yeah.

I just want to pay a five. Would you have a change of £45? No. Why don't you die?

We get to go back and go back. It's just like £5. How many items is he or five? Okay.

If we get to all five, we can go back and change the 100% on average. No one is free, so there all about £1.25 each because I guess, yes. Having not seen any of the other items isn't the range. Are we in London, outside London?

Far away, I've never chosen it. Up the wooden hills to Bedfordshire. for Chosn it. The wooden hills to Bedfordshire.

That's his help. Danny said. Oh. All the best Danny.

Bedfordshire. OK. Outside London. I'm going to say 75p for this, but I can go back and have another look.

Once you've been all five, you can review if you want to drop one out and call it free. Come on, get the other item out. I'm going to go here. It's a lovely thing.

It's a little dolly. No, it's not a dolly. It's a sort of like actually do quite like this. It's creepy.

I know you are. I like Kitch. Did you see my melty dog thing? Yes.

This is a little girl with holding a bouquet in some kind of ceramic with a blue and yellow dress. No, blue sort of what is that? Apron. Sure.

I don't know. It's got an A blue, apron over a yellow dress. Yes. And it's a bit kitschy thing that I take.

It's a bit too, the painted job isn't great. It's a bit too horrible and cheaply made. Yeah. I could go for that subject if it was a bit of quality.

If it was a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit. But that's just a bit grubby looking. Yeah. That blue hasn't been well.

But how much is the question Eli? I mean, is it a maker on the bottom? No, it's that cheap. You know what I mean?

It's not even a market. I mean, it's a really good thing. But one day we should take that to a antiques road show thing. I just genuinely said yeah, I got this from the grandfather, so he got it from a soldier in the first World War.

He means a lot. And then honestly off of the mat and then just like, that wouldn't get... Make the cut. It would.

It would. It would. It'd be worthless if you were taking the piss. They'd have seen a lot.

Then I'd be gone out. Don't know. Don't know. Sorry, every motherfucker here is a robbery.

I want all your antiques. Well, be a good player to turn over. Yeah. Well, maybe.

The great... You got to go that you get some stuff anyway. Quit on the nose, quit on the nose. Just going through the first pass of this.

Get your next item out now, it's number three. The little girl, next. Two sharks, two sharks, another portal, any statue we think. Two sharks diving out of a flume of water.

This is some kind of resin. It's not ceramic, it's some kind of resin mold thing. With two great whites, they look like jumping out of the water, like great whites don't do really. Not really, not unless you watch the movies or you go to SeaWorld.

They don't jump like, these are jumping like orcas or something. Dolphins really. And they wouldn't be together like that. They'd look at them, perhaps it's a dolphin mold that they've sort of modified or something.

And the wave, a big white frothy wave, lots of a Jetson pool that they're emerging from. Looks like holy flower or something. Or broccoli. It's like the actual disposability of art.

Because someone had to draw that and then turn that into a design and sculpt it and then crank it into a mold to make hundreds of thousands of them, not that many. No one made that many. Either way, you still look at it and go, who's it for? Where are you selling it?

Where did it originate? So much crap in this art. Well, the original SeaWorld, you could buy them on a shelf with 50 of them. It's after shit.

Garbage shit though, isn't it? I mean, I like sharks. No, that's Danny. No, you're all your children.

It's for you though. Unattractive, dual shark, Mac and piece. Yeah, good at it. Thing.

I'd say two sharks. How many? Two sharks. Maybe that's quid 50.

Quid 50. Right. 150. Next item.

Yeah. It's this. Another little... This is...

Oh my God, I love this. He does like that one. That's the kind of kit show, Paul. Yeah.

That's the same. Tell them what it is. Tell them what it is. Did you see my brown dog?

No. I have to go get it. I have to go get it. I'll get it.

You go get it. Why I describe what this is. When you fucking give me your present, you've got the couch. Right.

So the fourth item is a porcel in doggy face. And it's kind of sad dog. A little bit droopy, sad in the eyes. And it's got this weird design where it kind of is flat at the back.

And the head scoops out at the front. So it's got this weird kind of flatness to the face design. And if it's sad, it's probably designed to sit exactly able to radiate it or fireplace. And it's...

You can't like rest something on the bridge of the dogs. No, even though it's quite weird. It's weird. It's a dog that's flat at the back.

But anyway, Eli's got another dog, which... Oh, he has it very similar. It's kind of flat. Yeah, it's almost exactly the same.

Brown. Kind of, but brown. How weird. I got that the other day.

But it's almost exactly the same design. It's just one of the same people. It's got hand me back the brown one. I don't think it is.

Because of different mold you can tell by the bottom. It's that's cheaper there. There one, isn't it? It looks it.

I mean, it's basically on that. One is completely brown and the one that I brought or rather, Danny got is more kind of painted with the nose and spots and eyes. Yes. So what you got?

They're famous for making this crud apparently. Something pottery. You see, it says... What does it say?

You'll have a look. You're closer to the light than me. See, it says, Dan L on me. Is it something like that?

Yeah. Yeah. Dan Mead. Dan Mead Pottery.

Which is obviously they do stuff like that. It's kitschy and kind of horrible, Paul. Maybe this is... But it's almost...

This one looks cheaper. It does because look at the way the mold is on the bottom. It's a lot less... It feels cheaper.

It feels less weighty, less quality. Dan Mead Pottery. Pottery. I spent a tenor on that brown one.

Oh, yeah. Look, there is a Dan Mead Pottery and they make... They're still going apparently. I'm just...

Thank you, Danny. I'm really into it. And is this Slaves Brown kind of looked at everything? Yes, I don't think it is one.

Maybe this is the same mold that there's been a 1960s cat one. Like that. That's fucking good. It's that kind of kitsch that appeals to me.

That kind of... I think this item is non-Dan Mead, much later. Or the mold has been passed on to a lesser company. That has a real feel of quality compared to this.

The glazing. It's like bigger that one. It looks like it's a reduction. It does look like a knock-off.

Anyway, still will go next year. Of course. I'm into that. Great selection, Danny.

Some really awful things. Which is brighten my whole day. How much do you think it is? How much do you think it is?

Tenor. How much do you think that? It must be... What have I got?

So far you've gone. Two pound, twenty-five. You've burnt on this. So you've got...

This is the last item. The next one is... It's too weird. Okay, cool.

Final item. There you go. We like what's this then. Come on, love.

Oh, it's a lot of ceramics. It's all ceramics. It's the last item. It's all ceramics, Bob.
