PAUL CHANDLER
This is THE SHY LIFE PODCAST - each episode provides a glimpse into the slightly batty and bizarre world of Mr Shy Yeti. You will meet his friends, hear tales of his life in the library, travel with him as he gallivants about - and if you're good he might even read you one of his daft poems!

Our Sutton Park clips this time include the last remaining material that we've not yet shared from episode 2000 as recorded back in February and March 1998 and also some material from episode 2001.*
*Here we are for episode 546! This time we have a very special guest - not only has he gifted us a lot of his music, of late - but he is indeed our Patreon! Yes, it's Muffleyontour and he's here to chat with Mr Yeti about all manner of subjects - from Dr Who to books they've both been reading and podcasts of the moment. They also have a chat about approachable podcasts and also the challenges of recording podcasts out and about - and Muffley is planning to send some recordings from his up and coming trip to Singapore! This also leads to a behind the scenes chat and a discussion about the music that Muffley has been making for his trip - and we hear two of these new compositions during the course of the episode! The regulars aren't in the best of moods - mainly because they feel excluded from the recording of this episode - how will Paul placate them!?* *Our next show, #547 sees Uncle Warren returning to the show and this time he gets to meet all of the regulars!* *Email us at shyyeti@yahoo.co.uk if you have any comments - you can even send me a sound-file and I'll include it.

There are also one or two other answers to August-related mysteries that emerge during the course of this edition! Thanks to everyone who helped out with this episode - especially Toppie Smellie and the Smellcast team.* *Our next show, #546 sees us speaking to big friend and supporter of the show Muffleyontour who joins us in the studio for a bit of a chat; although things don't go quite as smoothly behind the scenes as one might hope!* *Email us at shyyeti@yahoo.co.uk if you have any comments - you can even send me a sound-file and I'll include it.

Here we are for episode 544! This time Paul and Nick discuss some films and TV shows over a glass or two... or three... of white wine! It's quite a mixed bag thematically too - avoiding the main-stream; from the late 70s Australian eco-thriller Long Weekend to the early 80s Italian attempt at an Alien sequel, Alien 2 - both Mr Yeti's choices! Following that we turn to TV and begin with Season 2 episode of Doomwatch (The Islanders from 1971), before moving on to the first episode of a 2010's sitcom called Spy, then Quest Of Eagles (Episode 1 - Sailor, 1979) and finally a season 4 Blake's 7 episode (Traitor, 1981). We also have Sutton Park clips from Spring 1998. Thanks to Nick and Aly for their help with recording this episode!

Are the Yoga Vampires targeting him again and if so how can he overcome their evil attempts to lure him into their dastardly blood-sucking ways? Cromitty seeks help from Paul - but also turns to Trowby, Toppie and Dr Quentin for advice. We also have a few Sutton Park clips from the seemingly never-ending episode 2000 and another quiz with Calum! Thanks to all who assisted with the recording of this edition!

*Here we are for episode 542!* *This time we are back for another episode of Chatterbox which was recorded over the Jubilee Weekend in June 2022 - and yet we barely mention it because none of us had been paying very much attention. Instead of discussing The Queen we return to chatting about the difference between UK and American words - consider spaghetti junction, drop in on old TV shows (many from 1970) and even pause to have a food and drink quiz! Paul is also concerned about Pooh Bear, Mickey Mouse, Batman, Superman etc. imminently falling out of copyright! We also speak with Calum about his jubilee plans, Yeti Uncle John causes a drunken scene and Lisa gets accidentally lost in time; you really don't want to miss that last one!* *Our next episode, #543 sees us following Cromitty into the lair of the jelly worm - as bad dreams begin to plague our scientist friend!

We also have a quiz with Calum, recorded back in the Spring of 2021 and more from the movie length episode 2000 of Sutton Park...* *Our next show, #542 is our belated Jubilee Chatterbox which has very little to do with the actual Jubilee itself!

Thanks to Mama Yeti for her help with this episode!* *Our next show, #541 is all about more of the desperate measures that Yeti Uncle John and Ikk go to so that they can get more of those yummy biscuits from Radio Dull FM; this time Bettina Du-Pres is involved, but things don't necessarily go to plan...* *Email us at shyyeti@yahoo.co.uk if you have any comments - you can even send me a sound-file and I'll include it.

My brother, Graham and niece, Alena were visiting my parents and it gave me the chance to catch up with them. I'd not seen them for three years! Things all begin quite normally with a chat about horror films and music - but then suddenly things take an odd turn... Have you ever heard of the band, Bee-Bumble!? No... But you will do... Wanna try Alena's jelly-bean challenge! (I'd take care if I were you!) There is also a new prose piece from Mr Yeti, BUTTERFLY HONEY. It really is a bizarre episode, but fun, I hope!!
