SOCIAL ISOLATING AND PODCAST EDITING!
Plans to go away at the start of April are now postponed - but thankfully the world of THE SHY LIFE PODCAST remains largely unaffected due to the large number of episodes that were already recorded; although lockdown doesn't mean that new stuff can't be recorded via Skype - so let's hold our heads high and soldier ever onwards...
First up, our most recently released episodes...
LIVE PRIDE48 SHOW - MARCH 2020!
Here we are for episode 321! This time on the show we are back live out there on Pride48 for our March 2020 show! We have quizzes, wiki-wanders, chats with our regular LIVE listeners in the chat-room and recent news on the whereabouts of Dameus Twinklehorn! Cromitty also does a rather odd experiment involving Justin - but you'll have to hear it to fully understand! We also have alternate versions of scenes from recent episodes for extra material - some behind the scenes material with Trowby and Lisa and an extended out-take from Martin H! Thank you all for your support! Our next episode, #322 sees us celebrating Mother's Day 2020 (UK) with a chat with my mum which I recorded back last 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. The music is by Shy Yeti and Luca. All content of this episode is Copyright Paul Chandler, 2020. Episode 321 was recorded LIVE on Sunday 15th March, with extra material recorded between September 2019 and March 2020.

THE SHY LIFE PODCAST - 322:
KEEPING MUM AND OTHER IMPORTANT PASTIMES...
Here we are for episode 322! This time we are celebrating Mothering Sunday here in the UK - by sharing some chatter with my own mum, not to mention comparing notes with the regulars who have stories of their own. All this and we have some clips from an April 1996 episode of Sutton Park. Thank you to my mum for being our guest this time around! Our next episode, #323 sees us catching up with Toppie Smellie and encountering - of all things - a genie! Exciting, aye!? Do join us, won't you?!

Next time we catch up with Toppie Smellie, Yeti Uncle John wants to be a magician and Paul encounters a genie in a bottle - although not a terribly generous one!
THE SHY LIFE PODCAST - 323:
THE GENIE AND THE MAGICIAN!
Here we are for episode 323! This time Toppie Smellie comes visiting and Yeti Uncle John is keen for him to help train him in the magical arts! Meanwhile Ikk picks up a mysterious bottle from a garage sale at Bettina's house! Paul is shocked to find a genie inside and looks forward to spoiling himself; but he really should be careful what he wishes for or he might be disappointed! All this and we also have some of Shy Yeti's poems and also some Sutton Park clips from around episode 2666 (Post-Christmas 1998). Many thanks to Toppie Smellie of The Smellcast for guesting in this edition and also to Jay The Hauntcub who makes a brief cameo. Belated appreciation to everyone who appears in our Sutton Park material. Our next episode, #324 is as yet to be decided upon - it really depends on time! Join us again very soon!

WHEN HARRY'S POP DREAM CAME TRUE!
Here we are for episode 324! This time on the show Paul speaks to Harry F about his very favourite band - Shakespears Sister - just after he got the chance to see them live (twice) 25 years after they originally split up. He tells us how he first became a fan and what it was like to finally see them in concert! A dream come true! All this and we have clips from old Sutton Park and some other orphaned material (starring Andrew and Lisa from Round The Archives) which we've been keen to share with you. Thank you for everyone's help with this edition of the show! Our next episode, #325 sees us surprising Cromitty and celebrating his awe-inspiring life-story; with all manner of special guests sending in their tributes. Do join us, won't you?!

Before we go - here are a few stupid photos that I took in non-podcasting moments...
Before we go I recently loaded up a clip from SUTTON PARK from April 7th 1996 which features a whole host of special guests - from Andrew T, Andy C, Nick G and then a few cameos from my brother, mum, dad and cats! There is one half of an episode (1307) and two complete ones (1308-1309) and they really are very silly indeed! Why not check them out!?
SUTTON PARK 1307-1309 (UNEDITED): https://youtu.be/WvzftD0EevU
Next time we'll have more new podcasts discuss - but we probably still won't have left the flat! That's not to say that we won't have been collaborating with other podcasters; since the lockdown I've recorded once with Toppie Smellie and Jay The Hauntcub for a Smellcast special and once with Martin H and Andrew T for a Round The Archives special - so we're not being lazy by any means!
That's all for now! Take care - more soon, Yeti hugs,

### 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...

For that matter will Cuthbert make it through the night!?!

### Long Lost Cousin Algernon And The Very Big Revelation!

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!!
