In a change to our scheduled episode we have a true SHY LIFE PODCAST exclusive in which we meet Paul work-mate - Beverley - who we have wanted to interview since episode 1! We discuss work, issues in soaps and studying for degrees in the evening whilst juggling a busy family! We had great fun - she will definitely be back soon; we hope you enjoy our conversation! There are also a couple of poems - a clip from the archives - comments from the regulars and we also hear from Calum who has just been to a garden party with The Queen.(We're not making it up, for once... Well...) Our next episode, number 172 returns us to our originally scheduled episode where we head to Radio Wey for a very poetic turn of events. Do join us, won't you?! Please email me at [email protected] 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. Thanks to Beverley, Calum, Nick G for digitising and also to Ceri who appears in the S.P. clip.
