Ep 388: The 2024 Trash Cannes Film Festival (Interrupted)

Lights! Camera! Action! This week on CheapShow, we present the podcast edition of our YouTube Live Stream event… “The Trash Cannes Film Festival 2024” (sponsored by Graxton Industries)! Paul has arranged an evening of experimental short films, movie chat and a glittering awards ceremony. As you can imagine, it doesn’t exactly go to plan for Mr Gannon and there will be tears before bedtime as everything begins to collapse around him. A big part of Paul’s problem is Eli’s ego and his demands for “samples”. Will he get his hands on the mysterious Graxton chemicals and what will he say to accusations of plagiarism? Luckily, Ethan Lawrence joins us to add a bit of star power and represent his masterful mini movie! Sadly, Eli and Ethan are going to fall out, pretty quickly! And that’s before we even get to the horror of the short films themselves AND Channel 84’s sticky offering! FINALLY, as this event happened last week, Paul and Eli have recorded over 45 minutes of new, podcast exclusive, material to explain what’s going on and make many, many apologies. The show must go on!

​

With HUGE thanks to:

Tom from Channel 84, Ethan Lawrence for appearing live, Vorratony for the exclusive art for this episode AND Ash Frith, Stuart Ashen, Richard Sandling, Tom Mayhew, John Matthews, Ben Baker, Alexis Strum & Paul Putner for their contributions to the show!
