YMMV / Cheap Show

• Hilarious in Hindsight: A few years into the podcast's run, Eli created the character of "Storytime Grandad", intended to satirize the Rambling Old Man Monologue. The character's stories contained no substance or point, but were sprinkled with crude humour. Episode 105 introduced "Derek", the creator of Video Games Basement's great-uncle, who exemplified these attributes to a T. The analysis of Derek's stories for comedic effect are now a recurring segment.
• Memetic Mutation: Winkie. All starting from a find in a charity shop.
