Hello beasties!
This time on the blog we're going to be discussing what Toby and I got up to during our week off in glamorous Colchester - busily recording new material for future episodes of the podcast...
Talking of podcasts, here are some episodes that have been released recently!
THE SHY LIFE PODCAST - 294:
1978 - YOU'RE THE ONE THAT I WANT!
Here we are for episode 294! Paul and Nick discuss the big hits of 1978 on both sides of the pond! Ikk and the gang will, of course, do their best to entertain us with songs from this year! Our next episode, #295 sees us chatting with Adam from Foul Monkeys - only Cromitty is doing system upgrades that threaten to disrupt events! Do join us, won't you?! Please email me at shyyeti@yahoo.co.uk if you have comments - you can even send me a sound-file and I'll include it on the show. The music is by Shy Yeti and Luca. All content of this episode is Copyright Paul Chandler, 2019. Episode 294 was recorded on 22nd June 2019 - with additions on 23rd June 2019.

ADAM MONKEY AND THE THINGUMMYJIG DEBACLE!
Here we are for episode 295! This time around Paul chats with Adam from fellow Pride48 podcast Foul Monkeys only Cromitty has forgotten that Paul is recording and has scheduled an upgrade to the systems which weakens the signal somewhat. Can Cuthbert or Ikk help fix things in time so Paul can still talk with Adam or will Martin have to arrange a mammoth Sutton Park clip session instead? You'll have to wait a week or so for our next episode as Mr Yeti is away recording for a few days for his birthday; but he'll also probably start work editing episode 300! Our next show once he returns will be episode 296 - our LIVE edition for November 2019 and our last time live before the "Wedding Of The Year!" Do join us, won't you?! Please email me at shyyeti@yahoo.co.uk if you have any comments - you can even send me a sound-file and I'll include it on the show. The music is by Shy Yeti and Luca. Sound effects by Paul Chandler and Soundbible. Thanks to Foul Monkeys for the brief clip of Adam discussing our chat on #FM-886 (Copyright Foul Monkeys, 2019.)

LIVE PRIDE48 SHOW - NOVEMBER 2019
Here we are for episode 296! Paul and the regulars are back in the studio for their ever-unpredictable live show for November! Paul talks with the chat-room, launches a quiz, encounters a potentially psychic cast-member and receives some shocking revelations via a fortune cookie or three!

Our extras this time are mainly clips from episodes of Big Fatty Online released around Halloween 2019 and two clips from Tastes Like Burning (episodes 278/282); we also have a piece of Halloween prose and a brief unused conversation from this year's Shy Life Podcast Halloween special.

I won't write much about my recent trip as all will be revealed during episode 297 - we mainly pottered! We pottered to our Malmaison hotel in Charterhouse Square on my actual birthday (and I managed to break my suitcase in Wimbledon Station on the way there!) - on the Monday we pottered to Liverpool Street and then pottered (by train!) to Colchester where we settled into our home for the week (Peake's House!) We visited the shops (quite a lot - especially Marks and Spencers, HMV and Debenhams!) and had a nice lunch in Wagamamas (I couldn't record as there was too much Copyright protected music playing!) We visited Colchester Castle Park and the castle itself - which was very noisy and full of screaming school kids; we also visited the gallery and I spent quite a bit on cards. Other than that we enjoyed spending time in Peake's House with our real live log fire listening to radio ghost stories from the 1940s and beyond! A week well spent and it went far too quickly, of course! Before we go - here are some more photos from our time away!

Next time we'll be reviewing all recently released shows up until episode 300 - and we'll probably be into December by then...
That's all for now... Take care - more soon,

COMING SOON!!
November is done, but we have many new episodes in the pipe-line! Our schedule list does tend to change every time I post, but right about now this is a pretty good guide to the episodes that we are hoping to release over the next few months; not to forget our monthly LIVE episode!

### Three Wishes For Shy Yeti!

### A Whole Lot Of Smellcast Goings On!
Paul and Jay try to find a way to belatedly celebrate the 500th episodes and 10th anniversary of The Smellcast; but they're not sure quite HOW to do it!
### The Return Of Dameus The Interviewer

### The New Caretaker / "Where's Me Booook!?"
What with Yeti Uncle John often being up in space - Bettina gives Paul the details of a caretaker who used to work on her Estate... It seems like a good idea until it becomes evident that this gentleman swings from being extremely lazy to shovelling every last thing into a bin bag... What ever will happen when he reaches the basement and finds all the tat in Cromitty's laboratory; what will happen to all those priceless Sutton Park tapes? For that matter will Cuthbert make it through the night!?!
### Re-connecting With The Past
Paul catches up with Cromitty and Martin and is excited to learn that Cuthbert has a few added advances that makes it possible to re-connect with the past via old episodes of SUTTON PARK... Ikk is slightly doubtful about it all - but he and Paul soon get to experience the process first-hand. Unfortunately his upgrade also unearths the control of a certain app that was once installed on him!

This episode sees Paul visiting Bettina only to find out that the house has recently become robotically automated; also Wifey Jo play a card game with Cuthbert.

More clips from the archives and recent conversations that don't have a home!!
### Shy Yeti And The Shame Inspectors

### Behind The Scenes - Fiction Within Fiction!
Paul looks back at how he used to film Sutton Park behind the scenes on some of Nick's films - with clips from both Tide Of Freedom and Evil Trophy and the equally as dramatic Sutton Park episodes recorded during these productions.
### Episode One Billion
We look forward a year or two to see how things are going for The Shy Life Podcast as we hit episode One Billion. Things are a little more advanced - but all the gang are still on board!!
### The First Last Shy Life Podcast Episode
This is the last episode of The Shy Life Podcast episode... or is it?
(Recorded in July 2019 - but not scheduled for release, as yet)
### The Second Last Shy Life Podcast Episode
This is our Second attempt at a last episode of The Shy Life Podcast... Might it be real this time!?
