A few days ago I shared a roundup of my favorite cheap gifts for the holidays. This week's episode of The Cheapskate Show is like an audio version of that post -- but also much more, because Cheapskate Sr. (aka Dave Johnson) weighs in with some of his own picks.

We've also got some news on Amazfit's latest smartwatch (say hello to the Bip U!) and some new streaming recommendations because we watch a lot of TV.

You can listen to the new episode (and past ones) right here:
