Hello beasties!
This time I'm sharing with you a number of episodes of the podcast edited around the time of my birthday - and one or two that were recorded during it! I was originally meant to be travelling to Colchester to spend my birthday; but a second lockdown meant that this was no longer possible... Still, I had time off work and made a number of phone/Zoom calls to people on my actual birthday - Skype-ing with some other friends around the same time too.
This post doesn't just cover the week of my birthday - but will take us through most of November; we're rapidly running out of 2020 and episode 400 of THE SHY LIFE PODCAST is approaching!
First up though, we have an episode that was mostly recorded back in the Summer, in fact during my last batch of annual leave...
THE SHY LIFE PODCAST - 390:
YETI UNCLE JOHN AND THE DEMON!
Here we are for episode 390! This time we travel back a month or two to late Summer and Yeti Uncle John has decided to resurrect his magic career; YIKES is all we can say! Meanwhile, Paul is keen to encourage the regulars to get some fresh air now that lockdown has been relaxed - but Yeti Uncle John only has ears for a recording that Toppie Smellie has sent him to assist with his magical training. What trouble is in store for the gang!?! You just know it won't end well! We also have a Sutton Park clip from you... one that ISN'T from the 1990s!!! Thank you to Toppie and also to Andrew and Lisa from Round The Archives for their help with this edition! Our next episode, #391 sees us reviewing what Paul and the gang got up to during Mr Yeti's recent birthday week off; only somebody appears to have been forgotten! 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. Sound effects are by Shy Yeti and Soundbible. All content of this episode is Copyright Paul Chandler, 2020. Episode 390 was recorded between the 16th August and the 20th September 2020, with some additional links recorded on the 14th November 2020. Our Sutton Park clip comes from near the end of the original run of the show - episodes 3154 and 3155 which were filmed in Las Vegas in December 2000.
