GOODBYE 2019 AND INTO THE TWENTIES!
Hello beasties!
This time we'll be discussing Christmas Day - the week in between - New Years Eve and hopping straight into both a new year and a whole new DECADE!!
Firstly I must apologise - I never got a chance to finish our Christmas script - but it is half-written and I do intend to finish it; either changing it so that it's not a Christmas script but some other holiday or simply releasing it out of season... Anyway, first up, some of our most recent podcasts...

THE SHY LIFE PODCAST - 304:
SHY YETI LIVE ON PRIDE48 - CHRISTMAS DAY 2019
Here we are for episode 304! We're back for our second of three LIVE Pride48 shows during December 2019 - and this one went out on Christmas Day, no less. Yeti Uncle John and Cromitty are also in the studio (and briefly both Toby and Deeley!) and we hear from Martin and Ikk who are calling in from a bar on Pluto; we also have contributions from the chat-room. Rumour has it that Santa may be making a visit - but who can be sure!? We also have some extra material for you - another quiz and material from episodes 2650 and 2651 from around the Christmas period in 1998. Our next episode, #305 is both our last of 2019 and the first of 2020 and went out live on New Years Eve 2019! 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. All content of this episode is Copyright Paul Chandler; it was recorded live on Wednesday 25th December 2019, with extra material recorded during 2019 and also from depths of the Sutton Park archive.

Next up - technically our LIVE New Year's Day show for 2019 went out first - but I'd been working on the first Review episode all week and wanted to vary the type of episodes that were released when you listen to the shows as a podcast ie: I didn't want the XMAS DAY and NYE episodes out together...

### Additionally:
There will - most probably - be live shows every month; but we also have plenty of other episodes either in planning or partially recorded.
### Ikk's Extra Super Special Day Out!
Ikk fixes his space ship and offers to take the regulars on a trip - will Paul regret not going!?
### Genies, Magicians And Two Stupid Yeti!
Paul finds a genie in a bottle but can't think of any good wishes - meanwhile Yeti Uncle John asks Toppie to help him train to become a proper bona fide magician!
### The Return Of Dameus The Interviewer
Dameus interviews all manner of podcasting celebrities as part of his return to the chat-show circuit.
### The Hidden Truth Of The Shy Life Podcast!
We answer listeners questions about The Shy Life Podcast? Will we ever learn who pushed Zap down the stairs in episode 200 or what happened to Dameus in episode 300? Probably not. Meanwhile there is a difference of opinion on what the "will of the listeners" is on the future of the show.
### 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!?!
### Paying Ethel A Visit!
Cuthbert helps Ikk and Paul travel back to 1992 to trace down Ethel The Landlady - but tracing them also seems to trigger a bad reaction to an app that was once installed on him!
### Bettina and the robot butler
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.
### Long Lost Cousin Algernon And The Very Big Revelation!
Paul learns some rather disturbing things about what Long Lost Cousin Algernon has been up to whilst helping Bettina out with her charity... but there are even bigger revelations in store!
### Bits And Bobs and Bobs And Bits - Mk 2
More clips from the archives and recent conversations that don't have a home!!
### Shy Yeti And The Shame Inspectors
Shy Yeti gets more than he expects when he receives a visit from Isaac and Declan from That's A Shame podcast - they are constantly on the lookout for Shame sources - but this time they have Paul in their sights!
### 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.
### Shy Yeti's Big Surprise!
Paul arranges for Jay The Hauntcub to acheive one of his biggest dreams - he has always wanted to meet a dinosaur... Paul gets Ikk to help... Simple! Nothing will go wrong... Surely not!?
### 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?
There will - most probably - be live shows every month; but we also have plenty of other episodes either in planning or partially recorded.
