MAY FLIES BY... BUT WE REMAIN INDOORS!



MAYBE MAY... MAYBE!

Hello beasties!

This time... Well... We've not gone far - but we do have plenty of new podcasts for you!

First up, with our last episode of April - we managed to release 9 shows last month...


THE SHY LIFE PODCAST - 333:

THE PODFADING PODCASTERS CHARITY SHOW!

Here we are for episode 333! Please note: the events were recorded before the recent sighting of Dameus at the airport - and also long before lock-down! This time Bettina asks Paul to read a newly written poem at a charity event; part-sponsored by Control Incorporated! Meanwhile, The Regulars have all been receiving curious messages from Dameus - but are they genuine? What exactly is going on? We also have Sutton Park clips from 1998. Our next episode, #334 was - once again - recorded before lock-down and concerns medical matters involving Paul and Bettina; can Ikk be of any assistance? Do join us, won't you?!

Next up a few photos - the next few are of a certain cat who I hang out with as often as is possible - at the end of this post there are also a few photos from a rare half hour trip outside and some additional snaps taken around the house over Easter... Our beautiful orchids are thriving!


Next time, we'll probably have more of the same - I was meant to be travelling to Penzance with Toby and up to Sutton Park and Ironbridge at the end of May, but that's now had to be postponed, of course... If I can't find anything worth taking photos of then expect some old ones from the archives!

Anyway, except for the episode previews at the end of the post - that's all for now...

Take care - more soon,

Yeti hugs,

Paul (aka Shy Yeti) xx

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? 
(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!?
