Run the car with the rad cap off while the car is cold. Check for exhaust in the coolant. I'm only curious because the hoses both blew within a short period of time. And the VERY quick heat. Sounds as if there is a lot of air getting into the cooling system somehow.

It might not be the case at all, but it is worth checking.
