Starting point is 00:04:43 Fine. I would like your finest wine and your best cigar. That's more Latin. Actually, coming up on the show today, more racist impressions.
Starting point is 00:04:57 There is a French person. There is indeed. But we'll get round to that. We should actually start the show instead of doing a voice-off. Yeah, this is bullshit. One more Welsh. Oh, hello there.
Starting point is 00:05:10 I'm from the valley. I'm from the valley. I'm from Llanelli. I'm from Llanelli, isn't it? Oh, isn't it? I've got a nice pet canary. Wow. I like canaries.
Starting point is 00:05:23 Eli's thought process. What do I know about the Welsh? I think they own canaries. Do they have canaries? They've torn one down the mine. That's Geordie now. I don't believe it. It's torn down the mine. I cannot do accents. Right, moving on. Welcome to the Cheap Show, everybody.
Starting point is 00:05:38 It's the Economy Comedy Podcast where I and Eli Silverman fail at doing accents. Yes, we all look to the charity shops, bargain bins, pound lands of the UK and find gold or brass and we celebrate it here on the show.
Starting point is 00:05:51 We celebrate everything cheap, tawdry, cut price, bargain, bric-a-brac, tat. Bric-a-lage. There's a French for you.
Starting point is 00:06:00 Is it bric-a-lage? What does that mean? Bric-a-brac. Oh, fair enough. Is that where the word bric-a-brac that mean? Brick-a-brack. Oh, fair enough. Is that where the word brick-a-brack comes from? I think they have a similar root. Ooh. It's got a very similar etymology.
Starting point is 00:06:12 Yes. Yes. So, with that in mind, hello, welcome to the show. We've got a fun-packed show for you today. What have we got coming up on the show, Paul? We have a delicious cheap eats coming up for you. I believe you have some vinyl yourself to talk about. I've got a few pieces of terrible vinyl and actually quite creepy.
Starting point is 00:06:30 And then finding out what you will get. Riley! Stop playing with your bell! My naughty cat, who'll be going to Spankland later on. Also, we will be... He's going to eat his food now, noisily, on purpose. It's all right. Look at him.
Starting point is 00:06:44 He's all right.'s starting crunching. Bastard. But let's begin with the tales from the dance floor. Okay. Do we have a jingle for that? No, it's what I do.
Starting point is 00:06:51 My tales from the dance floor. Hit it. So, now I don't want any cynical interruptions here saying how these are all the same.
Starting point is 00:07:01 Is this because in advance this story's the same? Yes. Alright, okay, good. So, I was DJing last night. Yeah, and did someone come up to you
Starting point is 00:07:07 and ask for something? She was a young woman and she came up and... This is like the Groundhog Day part of this show. Basically,
Starting point is 00:07:17 what I've noticed now is they start saying, can I make a request? So, it's like the pre-request for the request. So they're just ingratiating themselves via... Would it be okay if I asked for a record?
Starting point is 00:07:30 That's fine. Yes, I always say yes to that, because of course, it's just silly. To say no, I'm not interested. I mean, you can make a request. It's not up to me whether you make a request or not. I can deny that request. You can.
Starting point is 00:07:41 Which I will do. And you often do. And I always do. Always do. And I can always fuck off. Spoiler. Which I will do. And you often do. And I always do. Always do. And I can always fuck off. Spoiler warning. This is how this story ends. Yeah, so it's just strange to me that they go, you know, can I make a request?
Starting point is 00:07:53 That's like saying, can I speak? Or, you know, it's like... Well, she's just, you know, unaware of how this is going to go down and she's breaking the ice. That's her in. Yes. Because you've complained before about people who've caught to you and go, why don't you play this then? You know, at least they're saying...
Starting point is 00:08:09 At least she was being polite. Yeah, so... But that wasn't the tales from the dance floor. No, so... What was, you say? Exactly. Where is this going? So, a young lady approached me on the...
Starting point is 00:08:19 Behind the DJ booth. When I was spinning on the wheels of steel. Where was this, Blues Kitchen? Blues Kitchen. As always. And, again, so Kitchen? Blues Kitchen. As always. And again, so far, so very, very familiar. And basically, it's a short one, this. It doesn't feel it.
Starting point is 00:08:32 I know, right? Go on. So, everyone's dancing. Do you have this? No. End of story. No. You're right, it was short.
Starting point is 00:08:39 She goes, are you going to play any dance music? Right. And the irony, the irony the irony paul now she was probably thinking are you going to play any music from the 90s yes you know that she wanted dance electronic dance music but she just said dance music and it's like i couldn't i just said no and i couldn't help but feel the irony of the fact that what i was playing technically is dance music, funk and soul. As people were dancing to it. And people were dancing to it. So get your terminology right, love.
Starting point is 00:09:11 Yeah? If you want to come and give me the request, or else you'll end up on this segment, and you have. You get your name. I'm not interested. Excuse me, love. For the sake of our podcast, what's your name? And what's your address? And where do you live?
Starting point is 00:09:23 And where can people hound you when I set my fans upon you? My horde, my Eli, my silver fans. That's what I'm calling them. Silverfish. Silver fans. Although a friend of ours, Richard Wentworth, who does the Hadron Gospel, our podcast, he said they should be called the
Starting point is 00:09:39 Elites. Eli. The Elites. That's good. Yeah. That's good. It reads better than when you say it out loud. Yeah, well, Eli. The Elites. The Elites. That's good. Yeah. That's good. It reads better than when you say it out loud. Yeah, well, a lot of stuff does. Yeah. Such as that Welsh village. What Welsh village?
Starting point is 00:09:53 Clam diddly, clam diddly, clum diddly diddly do. God, the Welsh are going to be. Yakida, clam fiddly. Ha! Yeah. Clam fiddly, bow diddly. I don't know what I'm talking about so that was your
Starting point is 00:10:05 Tales from the Dance Floor we need to we need to I'll try and get better ones what should I do to cultivate better Tales from the Dance Floor perhaps I should
Starting point is 00:10:13 be rude to people well I mean look I mean perhaps I should sort of mock them see if they start
Starting point is 00:10:20 violence physical violence with me maybe perhaps I should proposition them sexually that would help and say you know I'll give you dance music if you make my trousers if they start violence, physical violence with me. Maybe. Perhaps I should proposition them sexually. That would help.
Starting point is 00:10:27 And say, you know... I'll give you dance music if you make my trousers dance. Oh, tent dance. Yeah. If you can get it all... It's a Persian tent dance. If you can bring life... If you can bring life
Starting point is 00:10:36 to my Frankenstein's monster down there. It's not Frankenstein's monster. It's more like Abbott and Costello. Whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop. I know that's the Three Stooges. No, that's... No. It's Neudberg. Well, yeah, but thatop, whoop, whoop, whoop. I know that's the Three Stooges. No, that's... Isn't it? It's Neudberg.
Starting point is 00:10:47 Well, yeah, but that's where they get it from. Oh, I did not know that. Well, listen, you're learning something. Yeah, but you're learning so much because I can't remember which one of the Three Stooges made that sound, but it was the bald-headed one. You know the one who would go,
Starting point is 00:10:57 whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop? Yeah, I see, yeah. Why are you on a pointing? Well, I can think of two. There was Moe and Curly. And the other one. Barry. It was Barry.
Starting point is 00:11:10 Yeah. Was it? I don't know. All right, we've gotten on from that. We've moved swiftly on from your horrible tales on the dance floor. Seriously. What? What was the point of it?
Starting point is 00:11:20 Well, if you hadn't been all fiffl-faffling and, you know, sort of downplaying it, it would have been good. Look, we're just going to do it very quick. Here's materials from the dance floor. A girl came up, asked for dance music. It was dance music playing. That was shit. She's shit. End of.
Starting point is 00:11:33 Fair enough. That was very... You know what? We could just do micro ones like that right now. All right, cool. So now I believe you have a life hack. You are going to love this. Yes, I do, Paul.
Starting point is 00:11:42 have a life hack. You are going to love this. Yes, I do, Paul. It's another in the infrequent feature that I do, known as Eli's Life Hacks. And people really like these, okay? They don't. And they save you money. And it's like part of the show that is actually,
Starting point is 00:11:56 you know, has some practical use in people's lives. It's not just wank jokes and buying stuff you like and pretending it's for the show. I think there's a happy medium between the two aspects of this show. So anyway, your life hack. Are you ready? Yes. Don't own a dog.
Starting point is 00:12:14 Great. See you next week, ladies and gentlemen, on Life Hacks. No, come on. That's good. Save you a lot of money. It would. But the problem is that that life hack doesn't solve a problem that pre-exists. That's having a dog. No. What if you're poor and you have a dog of money. It would. But the problem is that that life hack doesn't solve a problem that pre-exists.
Starting point is 00:12:25 It does. That's having a dog. No. What if you're poor and you have a dog? Don't have one. You've already got a dog, so your life hack would have to... Sell your dog. No, but... You can make money if it's a pedigree.
Starting point is 00:12:37 True. Sell your dog and listen. You want to know the real... The machinations behind the... I'd love to know how your brain works. I think a lot of us would like to know that. You could just go to the park. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:49 In a town or a city. And just be one of those people. Was he a boy? And you don't have to pick up his shit. No. You just have a nice roll around in the grass with a dog. With a stranger's dog. Excuse me.
Starting point is 00:13:07 They don't mind. Will you leave Mr. Biscuits alone? Mr. Biscuits. That would be a fucking great name for a dog. It would be a dog. Yeah. An Alsatian called Mr. Biscuits. Oh, that's excellent.
Starting point is 00:13:16 Thank you. So you're rolling around on the floor with an Alsatian called Mr. Biscuits. Yeah, and you get all your sort of, you know, all dogs aren't they lovely thing. Get that enthusiasm out. And then you can go home and you get all your sort of, you know, oh, dogs aren't they lovely thing. Get that enthusiasm out. And then you can go home and you don't have a dog. And you're not buying food for it. Also, you could have a little nuzzle or whatever with the dog
Starting point is 00:13:36 and then you can see the dog take a shit and you can watch the owner pick it up. You're sitting there on a park bench. Thinking, I don't own that dog but I enjoyed it I enjoyed that dog you enjoyed watching it take a shit
Starting point is 00:13:48 yeah and then you go oh I bet it's warm in his hands oh I bet it's smooshing oh I bet if you so that's my life hack everyone
Starting point is 00:13:57 don't own a dog boom right so ignition no do you have any more life hacks no that's it I've got one Do you have any more life hacks? No, that's it for this week. I've got one for you then.
Starting point is 00:14:06 Alright. My life hack is don't own a cat. No, that's terrible. Why? Well, it's unoriginal. Is it? It also doesn't have the same impact as a dog. Dogs are more expensive than cats.
Starting point is 00:14:20 So it's less of a saving. Don't ever have a child. That's good. That's a good one. Here's what you think. If you want to get that out of your system, go to a play school,
Starting point is 00:14:30 right, and then just go up to one and just pretend that's your child for a bit and have a play with it and roll around. Oh my God. Maybe the child's name
Starting point is 00:14:37 is Mr. Biscuits. You know, have a little roll around. Excuse me. They've got laws against that, don't they? Watch a little child have a poo. You're not allowed to call your kid
Starting point is 00:14:45 a strange thing in some countries really yeah in Australia they're like no can't do it
Starting point is 00:14:50 I'm going to call my son you know emperor dark side or something no can't do it
Starting point is 00:14:55 why because they they've actually passed a law so I think it's for the protection of the child I think
Starting point is 00:15:02 it's weird isn't it I guess I think they've got something similar in Switzerland Australia and I think it's weird isn't it I guess I think they've got something similar in Switzerland Australia and I think Mr. Biscuits
Starting point is 00:15:09 would basically not pass muster with the judicial system although it would be super cool alright class settle down settle down

Starting point is 00:15:39 Bourbon Biscuit. That suggests their surname is Biscuit. Yeah. So their name would be Mr. Yeah. That's not a bad idea. Maybe I should call my child Mr. So it'd be Mr. Gannon, no Biscuits. Yeah. So their name would be Mr. Yeah. That's not a bad idea. Maybe I should call my child Mr. So it'd be Mr. Gannon, no matter what happens.

Starting point is 00:16:40 You've shown that You haven't worked long on it at all Because if you said One fell shoot What's that expression? In one fall fell swoop in one fell swoop in one full shoot let's lay out the lay of the land here right and okay it's an occasional section and i think you know oh my god there's a lot for people to consider there and take away from that.
Starting point is 00:17:06 Thank you. All right, cool. Let's move on. Right, it is time for Cheap Eats. Cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap. Is that our jingle now for that? We really need to work on our jingles. Cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap.

Starting point is 00:17:43 That don't smell of death, despair and sperm listen don't it's a patented odour of the house of pickles what? have you not picked up on this?
Starting point is 00:17:53 no I'm trying to sort of publicise my rumours as sort of house of pickles that's what it's called god it's the house of pickles
Starting point is 00:18:01 is it because your penis is the size of a pickle? and when people swim in they go ugh no it's got nothing to do with my penis that's a shame it's because house of pickles. Is it because your penis is the size of a pickle? And when people swim in socket they go, ugh. No, it's got nothing to do with my penis. That's a shame. It's because I store pickles and chutneys in my room.
Starting point is 00:18:12 Wow. Anyway, Cheap Eats is the section of the show where we like to go out and find the best of the cheap foods that you can get your hands on. And it's been a long time coming, but finally we are tackling Eli. We're not tackling Eli, but what are we tackling Eli? Nice get out. Yeah, you sorted that one out. I did. We are tackling
Starting point is 00:18:36 noodle. And it is a cheese noodle. The king of the noodles has spoken. I found this the other day and I thought, I'm going to have to taste this and broadcast this to people. To the nation. Because, you know, it's an unusual item. It is.
Starting point is 00:18:49 I haven't seen these yet. I have seen a macaroni cheese noodle. Really? Instant macaroni. So it's not like noodles. And also, we discussed before, pot noodle coming out with a mac and cheese one, weren't they? And I haven't seen them.
Starting point is 00:19:02 Limited edition. I don't think it was. They just came and went. I never saw any of them in the shops. Well, I'd like to try that. I'd like to try that. But this is a Korean noodle. Now, the company's Fun and Yum?
Starting point is 00:19:14 It's Paldo. Oh. It's subtitled Fun and Yum. So are they a reliable brand? I have only known of one other noodle from them, the Goom Tang. Yeah. Which is a beef,
Starting point is 00:19:24 and it's a classy noodle is this all the black oyster sauce that it was no not the black garlic nissen tonkatsu
Starting point is 00:19:31 no thank you get it right I'm trying to engage in this obviously dreary bit of programming and the minute I try to engage
Starting point is 00:19:38 you're like get back in your box look no one's going to like this bit unless you show some fucking enthusiasm I was trying to show
Starting point is 00:19:44 some enthusiasm. So, Goom Tang is nice. It's an oriental style noodle. Right. And it's made by the same people who make this. Now, this is cheese ramen or cheese flavoured noodle. Oh, doesn't it look lovely? And by lovely, I mean it looks like sick.
Starting point is 00:19:56 It literally looks like hot sick. It really does. So, it's basically a standard noodle, but it had an extra pack in it. Okay. Which was the cheese powder pack, which you add at the end. And both were asked to be added? Or was it maybe optional? No, you're not going to buy a cheese noodle and not put the cheese in, are you?
Starting point is 00:20:15 No, I don't think you might not put the broth, the spicy broth in. No, you've always got to put the soup base in. So I'm going in. He's going in. Still. Very hot. Piping hot. I'm going to turn that bit up so loud on the audio so everyone listening just hears this.
Starting point is 00:20:34 Right in their ears. Yeah. That's weird. Is it? Weird in what way? Again, it's a Korean style noodle. So it has that kind of, I'm not really into the texture they make more sort of juicy
Starting point is 00:20:48 fatter noodles a lot of people like that more okay but I'm not into that but it's got this weird the cheese has this weird sort of powdered milk taste
Starting point is 00:20:58 right like artificial cheese but you didn't mix it I mean if you want to see us make this noodle you can just go to our YouTube channel just look for Cheap Show.
Starting point is 00:21:05 One word. You'll find it. No. I'd eat that again. All right. Let me have a try. Maybe I'm hungry, but yeah. Let me have a try now.
Starting point is 00:21:14 Get a bit with the cheese on. Yeah. Let's have a little look. See at this. Oh, you're an amateur, aren't you? I am an amateur. But here I am. I'm getting some purchase now.
Starting point is 00:21:23 Here we go. Oh, here we go. Oh. Oh, that's all right. It's all right, isn't it? It's not too bad because it has that fake macaroni cheese texture to it. Yeah, it's that fake cheese sort of flavour to it. Yeah, which is not awful. It's so sweet.
Starting point is 00:21:38 And I would argue maybe the base, the broth itself, helps give it something a bit more than just the cheese. So it's a little bit, don't I say fruity? it's got sweetness doesn't it? the cheese has that sort of milky sweetness I want to say like a
Starting point is 00:21:50 tomato-y kind of thing yeah there's a spicy there's a sort of spice miso flavour at the bottom I'm just going to try some of the broth here oh yeah
Starting point is 00:21:58 get some slurp on ladies imagine that between your thighs well come on you know what? what? I really like that yeah? yeah Ladies, imagine that between your thighs. Well, come on. You know what? What?
Starting point is 00:22:09 I really like that. Yeah? Yeah. It's like comfort food. It is. That's comfort food all over the place. It's actually not as weird and disgusting as you might think. It is quite nice.
Starting point is 00:22:23 It is quite nice. Nice spicy base and I was saying to Paul earlier it's got three sachets and that's always a good sign in general in noodles you had a dried veg sachet
Starting point is 00:22:35 you had soup base sachet yes and then you had the cheese powder sachet you did which I added so the more sachets the better generally speaking yes
Starting point is 00:22:44 ok and you can get some top topch Japanese noodles that have like six. Yeah. And they're like priced at about seven quid each. That's no longer a cheap eat. That's not a long... That's a gourmet instant noodle. Well, maybe we should do a gourmet noodle special one day where we get the very best.
Starting point is 00:23:00 Do you know what, Paul? What? I'd be up for that. Let's do that then. Okay, fine. That'll be our 50th anniversary special. To sum it up, that's a good noodle. I'm happy with that.
Starting point is 00:23:10 I'd give that a nice... I'd say 8 out of 10. Okay, that's fine. I'm just going to take this away from the recording area. Yeah, because not only is it horrible to listen to, but seeing it, ladies and gentlemen, is vile. Oh, look. He's off. Oh, look at him. So, a successful
Starting point is 00:23:30 first item on Cheap Eats. Eli, out of interest, how much did that cost? I can still hear them slurping it. That was about 50p. 50p? Yeah. They are cheap. Noodles are cheap. That's really good. And I got it in Chinatown, a place I go which has a very good range. A very good range. So there you go, 50p Chinatown. Look for that noodle and maybe others. And yes, I think we should have a noodle special one day when I've given up on thoughts and ideas for this show.
Starting point is 00:24:00 Just accept the inevitable noodle-ification of Cheap Show, yeah? Yes. It's what everyone wants to hear, Paul. They want to hear about instant noodles. If we have to change the name of this podcast to Noodle Show or King Eli's Noodle Podcast, I will fucking kill myself. Okay.
Starting point is 00:24:17 I will crucify myself. See, I'm not even laughing at that. No, no one's laughing. As usual. Right, it's time for dessert. So, we recorded this for the Christmas special, but then unfortunately we lost the footage, so I've saved it.
Starting point is 00:24:31 And what we have here are four boxes of chocolates, all from the same company. Excuse me. Sorry. Go, go. Because you've been scarfing noodles, you've got Windy Pops. I've got a bit of a burp on.
Starting point is 00:24:43 Classy. So, I have four boxes of chocolates. Now, what makes these boxes interesting is that they're all different colours. There's a green box, a yellow box, an orange box, a red box of chocolates. You sound just like Paul Daniels, man. Oh, not a lot.
Starting point is 00:24:54 No. No. I count to three. One, two, three. You're going to like this. I've got little... You know, he put a record out. Did he?
Starting point is 00:25:03 Yeah. You're going to like this, not a lot. Something like. You know, he put a record out. Did he? Yeah. You're going to like this, not a lot. Something like that. Mate, I've got to get a copy of that. Wait. We're going on to a little sojourn. What's the word? Sojourn.
Starting point is 00:25:15 In one swell poop. In one full sweep. Full shoot. Shut up. Full shoot. What was it called? It's Lay Out the Lay of the Land now. Paul Daniels.
Starting point is 00:25:24 What's the song called? Not a lot or something. You're going to like this. You're going to like it. You're going to like it. Just put record. Just put... Record.
Starting point is 00:25:35 I put it all in. It's all going in the search engine. Oh! There is no record. No, there's no record. I was wrong. Maybe let me just simplify this. Right, Paul Daniels
Starting point is 00:25:46 pop hit? Yeah. Pop hit single record. Nope, still can't go. Maybe, did you imagine it? I think I did. Probably it was part of his show. It was just like a song he did at the end of his show. You're gonna like this song.
Starting point is 00:26:04 Right there. Okay, Google. Paul Daniel's music. Here are some matching news articles. Putin's Russia could destroy British army in one afternoon. Whoa. Putin news. No, Paul Daniel's. Hang on.
Starting point is 00:26:18 Paul Daniel's music. Here's a result from search. Oh, that's just Russia again. Why does it keep saying every time I say Paul Daniels It thinks I'm saying Putin Okay Google, Paul Daniels Pop single This came back from a search
Starting point is 00:26:32 No, more Debbie McGee fighting with the Daniels family I just don't see it There's no music Poor old Debbie Poor old Debbie In my will, you're going to get not a lot. You'll like it, but it's not a lot. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:26:51 Yeah, there's no, I can't find it. Oh, well. We'll look into that. If I find it, I'll put it in the show, right? Come on, I wouldn't put it. No. Hey, let me tell you about Whizbit. Now, he comes from the planet of Wow. No, I wouldn't put it past him.
Starting point is 00:27:28 No, I wouldn't put it past him. A lot of people had records. Anyway, we're eating chocolate. So the thing about this chocolate is they have a chilli chocolate thing going on where they've put chilli into the recipe. So there are four boxes of chocolate and each one is hotter than the last. So we've got green, mild, one pepper. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:46 Because they've got the pepper symbol. Yeah. It's international. Not actual Scoville units. No. Which, as you know, is an actual scientist. But visually. Or man of numbers would use.
Starting point is 00:27:59 A man of science. A man of science and numbers would use. But this is, it's a layman's quick, easy symbol. You get one pepper, not that hot, two peppers, hotter. So the green one is one pepper, that's mild. The yellow box has two peppers, medium heat. Three peppers on the orange box, fiery hot. And four peppers, extreme heat on the red box.
Starting point is 00:28:23 Right, so let's start in the danger zone, which is what the green box has been called. What danger of what? Having a really sore ring piece the next morning. Here you go. I mean, there's nothing remarkable about the chocolate. It's simple. It looks cheap. It looks like cheap Christmas decoration chocolate.
Starting point is 00:28:39 Yeah, let's have a little taste. It reminds me of those... I'm trying to find the chilli in there. I've got to think these are mostly aftertasty kind of chilli things. There's really very little. I think the noodle has just, you know... My noodle has absorbed... Oh, wait.
Starting point is 00:29:00 Oh, there's something. A bit of a tang there. See, it comes at the end. Yeah. And the chocolate melts and it leaves its... It's a pity about the chocolate tasting like those chocolate coins. It is chocolate coin money. Except chocolate coin money at least feels like there's a milk...
Starting point is 00:29:12 Not chocolate coin money. Chocolate money. Chocolate. What? Chocolate money coins. You said... Yeah. What did I say?
Starting point is 00:29:21 You just said some shit that didn't make any sense. Yeah, I know. And you said chocolate money... Yeah, because't make any sense. Yeah, I know. And you said chocolate. Yeah, because that makes more sense. Right, so not very hot. Leaves a little bit of a tingle afterwards. It is a bit of a tingle. Just a bit of a tingle.
Starting point is 00:29:34 Right, so now we're going to move on to yellow. What is this thing with chilli and chocolate? It's a good combo. Maybe in recipes. Yeah. I can imagine maybe if you're using it in a wider recipe that maybe this is sauce-based. Don't the Mexicans have a mole? Doesn't a mole have cocoa and chilli in it?
Starting point is 00:29:52 I think it might do. When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie, that's a mole. No, it's not. It's a pizza. Shut up. Right, next one is yellow. Medium heat. And as the box is on the side, serious risk.
Starting point is 00:30:05 Ooh. What? Yeah, it's hotter. It is. Oh, yeah, that's got... I'm getting a kick now. The problem is, I mean, from top to bottom, ooh. Ooh, that's got a hit.
Starting point is 00:30:17 That's got a hot. From top to bottom, you get hit by lacklustre chocolate first, and then you get left with a hot palate. Yeah, and it hasn't got much flavour, the chilli. It's just heat, isn't it? It is just the heat. Oh! That's quite hot. I mean...
Starting point is 00:30:33 You know when it's getting hot, but it makes you sound like a vicar from a murder mystery. You're like, oh! Miss Marple! But you like hot food, don't you? I don't like hot chocolate. I mean, not the band. What about the drink? I like hot chocolate. I mean, not the band. What about the drink? I like hot drinks.
Starting point is 00:30:49 So you like a cup of cocoa, do you? I do like a cup of cocoa. Would you put some Tabasco in it? No. Would you? I might now. I'm getting a taste. Well, that's Barry.
Starting point is 00:30:59 We'll do a taste mix-up clash. Yes. We'll do a hot chocolate with Tabasco. There is one combo that I saw suggested combo the other day that interested me vanilla ice cream with sausage rolls
Starting point is 00:31:13 interesting, because it's kind of like a custard it'll be nice well if you want to try it out and send us a picture of your sick afterwards please do, right third box chilli chocolate fiery hot us a picture of your sick afterwards, please do. Right, third box, chilli chocolate, fiery hot. Okay. Three on the... Well, there was definitely some heat in that last yellow box.
Starting point is 00:31:31 There was. Serious risk. Explosive contents, this one is explosive contents, it says. Explosive bumhole. Here we go. Let's have a try of this. Oh. Yeah, it's got some burn oh I don't like it oh I do not like it oh yeah that's just unpleasant isn't it? Are you alright, Paul? I'm not going to vom, but... It just feels like... That's just nasty. It's like serious risk of not enjoying yourself. I have to tear my stomach somewhat.
Starting point is 00:32:15 Alright, well, you've got the worst is yet to come. You're going to be alright, mate. It's just... You know what it is more than anything else? The heat, I don't mind. It's the fact that it has to go down on that horrible fucking chocolate. Yeah, the chocolate really lets the whole package down, doesn't it?
Starting point is 00:32:29 Ugh. I mean, how much did this whole ensemble cost? I think it was like three quid. Three quid? Yeah. Quite costly. They had to. It's stuck in my teeth
Starting point is 00:32:39 and it keeps sliding out the gaps and just going, here's some more. Okay, no one needs to hear it. Right, final box. Extremely hot. Four chillies on the rating scale. Are you ready? There you go.
Starting point is 00:32:51 It's just going to be more of the same, but slightly worse, isn't it? And this says toxic waste on the side. That's not a good thing to put on food. It's not toxic waste. Chilli is food. It's because they started too high. They said danger zone, then serious risk. And they peaked, and it was like, what else? Bukula water. Utter Armageddon of life on Earth. It's because they started too high. They said danger zone, then serious risk. And then they peaked and it was like, what else? A nuclear war.
Starting point is 00:33:05 Yeah, like, yeah. Utter Armageddon of life on Earth. Taste holocaust. Right. Is that noticeably hotter? Yes, it is. See, that's actually got some of that. That's got some heat.
Starting point is 00:33:23 All right, Paul. All right. Yeah, that's... That is actually quite hot, but what's the use of it? What's the use of that? That's what I want to know. There is no use for it. There's no use for that.
Starting point is 00:33:39 What would you do with it? Just give it to someone and go... Yeah. Is it like pranking? I don't care. Paul, we've got to do this podcast. Paul,
Starting point is 00:33:51 you have to care. We're broadcasting. How was that? I do not like it. You did not like that? I did not like this. So, what are we going to do?
Starting point is 00:34:05 Give a mark out of ten for each level, or...? I'm going to mark the whole package. All four chocolates get one score. That's how I'm feeling. Okay, what's your score? Zero. What a piece of shit. What a pointless, horrible, cheap, vile,
Starting point is 00:34:21 pointless, vacuous, hateful invention. Yes. And I'd give it five out of ten. Why? All right, four out of ten. Is this a democracy or is this like... I want to see you go lower. All right, four out of ten.
Starting point is 00:34:36 I think that's all it deserves. That's not even low enough. I mean, all right, I'll see you in the middle. So what would they be good for? People you don't like. Terrible. You know, I can't imagine the reason why
Starting point is 00:34:47 you'd ever go, oh, I'm really hungry for chocolate. I'm going to pop out and get some chilli chocolate that tastes like sick. It does, yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:56 It was unpleasant. Oh. Unpleasant and got more unpleasant the hotter it was. I kind of wish we'd start with the chocolate and ended on the noodles,
Starting point is 00:35:04 but I kind of feel the noodles were... Oh, I don't know. What, have they sort of set your tummy off, have you? No, the noodles were lovely. I think the chocolate... The noodles were good, weren't they? Did you give the noodles a score? I gave it a seven, but you gave it an eight.
Starting point is 00:35:16 I would argue eight is also fine. Okay, good. However, if I ever, ever see the person who invented those chocolates, I'm going to knee them in the balls or fanny, depending on the gender of the inventor. So, and what, they'd go in the same room 101, along with the Vimto Sours, yeah? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:34 Yeah. Vimto Sours. Vimto Sours were very poor. Oh, no, very unnecessarily sour. They were sour to an industrial level. The things we put in our mouth. Yes. It's been a long time coming,
Starting point is 00:35:49 ladies and gentlemen, but finally, it is time for Eli to open up his box of records and present Eli's final vinyl. Is that what it's called? No, I don't know. Call it something now.
Starting point is 00:36:01 Eli's shit records? Really? Nothing? No alliteration no you know spunk to it come on man
Starting point is 00:36:10 you try and get spunk in everything yeah I do go on what about Silverman's worst record in the world
Starting point is 00:36:18 Silverman's platter that's good isn't it yeah a silver platter silver's platter Silverman's pl, I like that. Yeah? A silver platter. Silver's platter. Silverman's platter.
Starting point is 00:36:27 Yes, okay. Ladies and gentlemen, it's time for Silverman's Platter. Which sounds like a sex act. This is... I gave her such a Silverman's platter right up her back the other night. Don't give anyone any ideas. What's the first record? It's called Muck It Out.
Starting point is 00:36:43 And it's by the Farmers Boys. Okay. Right. And it's got a pig with a beatbox. Yeah. Not beatbox, a boombox. Yeah, a boombox. The cover has a pig with a boombox. I am going to look this song up. The Farmers. This is just
Starting point is 00:37:01 so weird. And what would you expect from that cover? What kind of music, Paul? I would say it was some kind of awful rap song, but with a kind of West Country flavour. Yeah, nothing at all like that. Like a run DMC. It's not like that at all.
Starting point is 00:37:15 So what's it called? Muck It Out. It is some weird kind of new wave. It's very poor. And there's an extended version. Don't. You don't want to hear hear that I don't want to hear this to be honest with you but let's have a little
Starting point is 00:37:28 listen to it right now I can't walk in this world You can't stand me now Time is a hand I've learned by heart And time is so short But it's so precious to us I laugh, you cry But tell me why'd you lie? You tell me you're sorry, I'll wait on the morning
Starting point is 00:38:35 Waiting in the cell, but I'm sorry too What the fuck? I know, it's weird. Is that? That was like, it's like Erasure meets Spandau Ballet. Spandau Ballet meets
Starting point is 00:38:50 Ultravox. It was, what the fuck? It's a bizarre record. I thought it was going to be, I lost two bullets. Oh. I thought it was going to be
Starting point is 00:39:00 some kind of ooh-ah-roah, let's muck it out. Yeah. Ooh-ah-roah, let's have a shout. Ooh-ah-roah, let's muck it out ooh-ah-roar let's have a shout ooh-ah-roar let's muck it out
Starting point is 00:39:07 and say we're the farmers boys yeah something like that ooh-ah-roar muck it out ooh-ah-roar muck it fucking out ooh-ah-roar
Starting point is 00:39:16 muck it fucking out as we are the farmers boys raging hormones so that's I think we can both agree it's pretty bad, though. I like that. It was pretty bad.
Starting point is 00:39:27 It was not what I was expecting. What does it say on the back? Well, what a time we've been having here in the village since Ron started getting into disco music. He's ruined most of our Jim Reeves LPs with his scratch mixers and he's scared off Mrs. Giles half to death with his shouts of get off during the six o'clock milk round. Mind you, I must say that wearing roller skates
Starting point is 00:39:45 around the house gives Hugh Ring a whole new dimension. Both Ron and I wish you every happiness in the future and we hope that this record enables you to get funky as soon as possible. Your pals, Elaine and Ron. What the fuck is going on? What on earth the fuck is going on with this record? I haven't...
Starting point is 00:40:02 It's on EMI. They got a deal. I mean... Probably not a very good one. And I'm't. It's on EMI. They've got a deal. I mean... Probably not a very good one. And I'm talking about from EMI's perspective. No. What's next on the list?
Starting point is 00:40:12 Now, have you ever thought to yourself, Yes. I fancy a reggae pop bubblegum country version of a rock and roll classic.
Starting point is 00:40:23 Namely, Teenager In Love. I can't even imagine literally what that even sounds like. That is what I have. The group's name is Flame. The song is Teenager In Love. It's a pop reggae country bubble gum. What does that even mean? Well, wait till you hear it. Each time we have a quarrel
Starting point is 00:40:53 It almost breaks my heart Cause I am so afraid That we will have to part Each night I ask the stars of the moon Why must I be a teenager in love? Very poor. What is up with that? And look at the cover.
Starting point is 00:41:19 They just look weird. They look like a bunch of... They look like the kind of kids who hang around at housing estates and throw rocks at little old ladies. They look malnourished. And are they meant to be the singers of that song? Yeah, they are the singers. Because I thought that was some cockney ladies who are all like...
Starting point is 00:41:33 Look, they look very young. I think he's got a sort of falsetto there. That's just a weird anomaly record. It's a disco special. It's not disco, though, is it? It's like a cod reggae sort of country sort of vibe. I don't know. They're either sitting next to or on a tractor.
Starting point is 00:41:50 There's definitely a farming theme going on. Is that like a tractor to you? Big wheel arch and the thing there? Oh, yeah. What's going on? We got muckied out by the farmer's boys, and then Flame appeared to be... On a tractor.
Starting point is 00:42:02 Let's see if we can keep this going. Let's keep this white hot. So what would you give that out of ten then? I would give Farmer's Boys three because it's just awful. I would give that two because it's slightly more awful. Okay, let's have something good. Okay. This is a song called Ramaya.
Starting point is 00:42:21 Ramaya is the name of the person or the song? That's the song. But that's not the song we're going to hear. Oh. Becauseaya is the name of the person or the song? That's the song. But that's not the song we're going to hear. Oh. Because I like the B-side. Oh, what's it called? Piranha. Piranha.
Starting point is 00:42:33 And the artist is Afrique Simone. Oh, so it's not even that thing. Afrique Simone. Right, I need to just get this right. How do you spell Afrique? A-F-R-I-C. R-I-C. Simone, as in Nina. Okay.
Starting point is 00:42:50 Let's see if that comes up. And it does. Got piranha? Yeah. Check it out. Here we go. Thank you. See, here's the thing, and I'll try and put this as delicately as possible. If I didn't know a genuine African singer was singing that, I would have thought there was a racist white guy singing that. Taking the piss. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:02 Yeah, it does have that kind of tribal piss take sort of thing. It sounds like there's a white guy trying to get away with singing the Umbongo song. I'm touchy, touchy, piranha. Yeah. Yeah. Boogie, boogie. He goes basically. So, let's not go there.
Starting point is 00:44:14 Let's not dwell. But that was a nice song. And I like the guitar bit. The guitar was quite good, isn't it? Yeah, the guitar was quite good. Because it gives you the impression that there are piranhas swarming around you. I think that's what it is. It's got an onomatopoeic sort of vibe doesn't it
Starting point is 00:44:25 I liked it, and the sort of stingy sort of sound which are like little nips as they bite you isn't it, quite a violent but sexy record, it's a sexy sexy platter on Silverman's platters weird just weird, so
Starting point is 00:44:41 anyway so that's something quite good because we now move to the pièce de résistance. Oh. Or, could say, one of the creepiest records I've ever found.
Starting point is 00:44:53 This is Letter to a Teenage Bride. Already, that sounds like... By Pierre Cor. That already sounds dodgy as fuck. Now, this is, basically, if I was going to sum it up,
Starting point is 00:45:04 conjugal rape. It's a lot snappier title for the song, I will say that. That's what it is. He basically... Do you know anything about him? Nothing at all. I don't really want to know. You know, I'm glad he was...
Starting point is 00:45:19 Because he's not coming up a lot on YouTube. There's a song called Le Taglia a Popo Le Plumets by Pierre Cot, which is not that song, but I'm presuming it's the same kind of guy. No, this is totally different. It is. See, already I like it. Just for the...
Starting point is 00:45:46 So he's obviously like a French language artist who probably had some success in France. This is an English record. It's on the Charisma label. I need to find it if I can find it. Which famous British comedy group also released records on Charisma? Python?
Starting point is 00:46:08 Yes. Oh, really? It's their label. So I thought this might be kind of interesting, but it turned out to be extremely creepy and nasty. Well, you don't have to rely on the internet. I'll describe it to you. Oh, no, don't do that.
Starting point is 00:46:20 Basically, it's a letter to his, he basically, in a French accent, because he's French, he goes, Oh, darling, your parents, when they're here, cannot fuck you. You know, it's terrible. I want them to go.
Starting point is 00:46:35 I need them to go so I can have my fucky fucky with you. Yeah! And then he basically comes at the end of the record. He's like, Oh, yeah! Yeah, darling! Yeah! It says here the song ends out with
Starting point is 00:46:50 the phrase, ooh la porky. This record was quite controversial, and some female staff members at Charisma felt that it was sexist in the extreme, and so there was a lack of enthusiasm when promoting it it was featured in Kenny Everett's
Starting point is 00:47:08 Bottom 30 as well oh his literally worst records of all time yeah they're selling it on eBay right now but I can't actually find the song itself
Starting point is 00:47:16 well I think it's because they've censored it it is quite sort of quite disturbing so he basically goes yeah come on give it to me
Starting point is 00:47:23 your parents aren't here and she's going oh my mama oh papa oh daddy the whole way through oh my god like in her little
Starting point is 00:47:31 you know mate just the more I hear of it the more it sounds like it's a court case waiting to happen come on baby you know what I need
Starting point is 00:47:38 she's like that oh baby come on your mum she gives me such a fucking boner killer. Oh, I want you when you grow up.
Starting point is 00:47:49 So I think he's trying to do a sort of Gainsbourg. Don't worry, ladies and gentlemen. You can hear a nasty paedophilic piece of trash. In fact, you can hear it if you send me the audio right now. Why'd you have to call your dad? Why'd you have to call your mom? I mean to say they're not too bad But if they're not too bad. But if they're here, it spoils our fun.
Starting point is 00:48:57 It started again. Look, Monet. What about me? Well I didn't hear it But I'm presuming It was as awful But by the time You said that I edited it in
Starting point is 00:49:16 It ends on what? Ulla Porky Ulla Porky I want to call this episode That now Ulla Porky Yeah I think you should. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:26 Excellent. So, all right, cool. Let's try something else then. We'll get that into the episode. We will. So, I've also got... Oh, what's this? The Masters of the Universe record.
Starting point is 00:49:37 What? It's He-Man by Masters of the Universe. And is it... What is it? Is it a storybook? It's a song. What? It's a song. What? It's a pop record, Paul.
Starting point is 00:49:47 The Beast Side. Oh, that's very clever. Yes, the Beast Side is known as the Beast Side. Why? Because there was the Beastmaster was one of the characters in He-Man, yeah? Yeah? Yeah, Beastmaster. Don't you remember, you twat?
Starting point is 00:50:00 No, there's a film called Beastmaster. But there wasn't a character called Beastmaster. I don't know. I don't remember. I don't remember. I think it was that guy on the cover with the green head. No, it's him. He's the Beastmaster. No, that's Lockjaw.
Starting point is 00:50:11 That's Man-at-Arms. Man-at-Arms. I'm getting the confused. See, look. For some reason, Skeletor and Lockjaw are both on the same side. Yeah, it's bullshit. Coming over the mountain. And also, whoever drew this cover was not the official animator of the Masters of the Universe.
Starting point is 00:50:23 No. That's a very sloppy job it's poor did he have an axe did He-Man have an axe He-Man didn't have an axe he had a sword
