What's All This Then with Charlotte McDonnell and Libby Watson
Chavs with Eli Yudin
Ep. 49
•
Hello! Is something a chav might say. Oh you don't think that's right? Examine your assumptions, you snob. We're joined by comedian and podcaster Eli Yudin (What A Time To Be Alive, twitch.tv/pig_dog) to discuss chavs. What is the stereotype and what is the reality? What was Chavscum? Remember "happy slapping?" Plus, the shin-kicking championships, and Libby's hated backronyms.
