Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by a total giant in media and creation, it's RENAY RICHARDSON!Renay's been hard at work in so many ways and in so many areas of the game, and for such a long time, this is one of those episodes where a choice of lanes must be made, lest the conversation become unweildy and impossible to finish... She's also been a very big piece of the Distraction Pieces puzzle at the very beginning of the road so will always get props for that. This is an ace conversation which, as said, darts around willfully and for everyone's benefit as there's a huge amount to enjoy and get stuck into. Included among the darting is the old chestnut of Zoom recording and contending with that as opposed to the face to face, the many varied methods of becoming a parent and the difficulties for single women to adopt, starting early with instilling lessons in kids, time spent at The BRIT School, critical thinking when it comes to podcasts, and not getting everything from the same place. Saying all this though - high up on the list is the book Renay wrote with Arisa Loomba called 'Human Resources - Slavery and the Making of Modern Britain' - and best believe that gets a good talking about too. Proper fascinating and very very crucial listening here, get yourself involved.PIP'S PATREON PAGE if you're of a supporting natureHUMAN RESOURCES bookINTERVIEW RE: BROCCOLI PRODUCTIONSINSTAGRAMSPEECH DEVELOPMENT WEBSTOREPIP TWITCH • (music stuff)PIP INSTAGRAMPIP TWITTERPIP PATREONPIP IMDBPOD BIBLE Hosted on Acast.

But enough about that - let's concentrate on episode 98 and be present in the moment shall we... It's Essex's wrestling superstar Mr Will Ospreay! Ever since Pip had a chance meeting outside a Progress Wrestling event at the Electric Ballroom in Camden and then witnessed Will rip it up, it's been a matter of time until the two got together in the podcast ring and got their verbal grapple on and talk pure wrestling goodness, which will be a joy to wrestling and non-wrestling fans alike... A great chat with a very grounded and humble professional, who has made it up the ladder and continues to ascend, all the while keeping himself down to earth while working a DIY job.

emocleW, emocleW, emocleW to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This is your bonus FRIDAY REWIND episode! Today, we catch up with Alan Moore, originally episode 3 from 2014-10-29.A huge episode in the Distraction Pieces canon, as Pip caught up with Alan - at time of publishing - over a decade ago in Alan's house. It was the early days of the podcast and of course the style and flow of the show was developing, but this was a fabulous sign of things to come and that even when the show was a toddler, it was looking at a mountain of greatness. AND HERE WE ARE! Alan is an immense figure in the world of comic books and writing, and whether or not this is a world in which you dabble, it's a really great one to pick up on if you missed it back then (and if so you are indeed forgiven).

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by ALEX HORNE of TASKMASTER & THE HORNE SECTION!Looking back over Alex's previous appearance on Distraction Pieces, all those years ago back in 2017, it looks like this encore meetup happens in exactly the same way - in the caravan, under a revolving cast of airplanes. But all is well! The planes are not intrusive (apart from to the sunlight), and the chat is not a simple rehash of old things, because how could it be? So much has happened since, though one thing remains - Taskmaster is the immovable object and we are all much better for it. So enjoy this catchup which hits upon all the things you would hope for, including much behind the scenes gold and some hints at what might be on the horizon with the (at time of typing) forthcoming season. It's not all Taskmaster though, as Alex breaks down a lot of what else has been happening and will be happening in a solo and group capacity. So much to enjoy - and you shall!PIP'S PATREON PAGE if you're of a supporting natureALEX'S 2017 APPEARANCENO MORE JOCKEYSTASKMASTERTHE HORNE SECTIONINSTAGRAMSPEECH DEVELOPMENT WEBSTOREPIP TWITCH • (music stuff)PIP INSTAGRAMPIP TWITTERPIP PATREONPIP IMDBPOD BIBLE Hosted on Acast.

emocleW, emocleW, emocleW to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This is your bonus FRIDAY REWIND episode! Today, we catch up with Michael Fassbender, originally episode 172 from 2017-10-11.Below is the original writeup for this episode - enjoy a fascinating look back at really great one from a bunch of years ago... So much has happened since!PIP'S PATREON PAGE if you're of a supporting natureOriginal writeup:A blockbuster of an episode this week, as Pip sits down for a face to face chat with pure acting royalty Michael Fassbender! Far from the a short 3 minute press-junket soundbite interview, Pip has some quality real life facetime with Michael, who is (at the time of this podcast release) out there grinding on the promo for his new film 'The Snowman', directed by Tomas Alfredson and adapted from the novel by Jo Nesbø. A wonderful and warm chat, as we discover what Michael has been doing in the past year (racing Ferraris and surfing), but also get deep into the whole business - how he was born in Germany and was subsequently moved to Ireland at 2, his love of travel and how the acting profession broadens that experience hugely, how his career path could have branched off into an entirely alternate universe, and all manner of satisfying, filling movie gossip and insider knowledge. Safe to say then that this episode is pure Distraction Pieces goodness for your soul and being. Get involved, and if you feel it, get OTHERS involved too!

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip continues the Distraction Pieces tradition of appraising the cinematic output of the year just passed - it's Films Of The Year 2024!A thorough and - crucially - personal rundown of all that happened last year in the world of feature films, major and independent, big screen and small screen. The whole thing was recorded outside in the dead of Winter, so by all means don't feel like you need to mimic those surroundings. This is probably more suitable for a warm and dry environment at your leisure, but wherever you choose it's a nice way to look back in fondness on a really great year in films.It's obvious but it must be re-emphasised each year - this is not YOUR list of favourite films. It is Pip's. if Pip makes a choice, this does not remove your own choice. It does not mean you are wrong in your own choices. You know this already but you'd be surprised at how some folks might misinterpret these things. It's all love in here. Enjoy, make some notes, rewatch some goodies and maybe make some new acquaintances in the bargain.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!Pip, Chris and Stu assemble in the regular formation for that very special time of year we all know and love, it's DRUNKAST TIME! PART 7!We find the gang in their element, high off of adventure and fire and smoke (all will be revealed), and ready for the regularly scheduled mayhem and delirium! It's the time when these three good friends in life and podcasting get together in a safe environment with a wealth of booze (responsibly consumed - this isn't a race to the bottom), and as is always pointed out in these writeups, you can expect a loosening of filters and lowering of those occasional conversation drawbridges. By that, I mean that these three good people will here and there say things that you might not usually encounter in the usual Distraction Pieces space, so tread carefully. Essentially, if you're dipping your toe in with these episodes, your toe might well get chomped, so a suggestion would be to approach with one of the usual guest-led episodes!Things get messier as the episodes progress, but if you're an OG DPP / Hardcore Listing head, you'll enjoy the ride for sure.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by the hilarious writer, podcaster and original Twitter treasure RUTH HUSKO!A really great episode featuring someone who has been doing some fabulous work for such a long time, but may not necessarily be known to all y'all yet. Hopefully the opposite is true - but if not, trust us, this is a brilliant one with so much DPP goodness. Ruth's been winning first place on Twitter (X if you must but, of course, present ownership noted) for a long time, and of course that gets decent coverage right here, but also hear about such things as Norm Macdonald, Stewart Lee, Chris Morris, Richard Herring, working a regular job (one of which being HMV like Yung Pip here), Limmy, social media and where it lacks (but also succeeds), exes and all that, corporations and patter theft (you'll understand what that is quickly if you're unfamiliar!). Excellent stuff and true Distraction Pieces gold for you all. Enjoy!PIP'S PATREON PAGE if you're of a supporting natureRUTH LINKS HERE!

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by the excellent actor, style icon and show friend HARRY LAWTEY!We can safely say that the 'show friend' addition is a two way street too, as Harry was listening back in his drama school days! So it's a real treat that Pip gets to chat to Harry, and probably a weird moment for Harry too being a long-term listener...! It's a superb converstion, as they get into so much about acting and process, all things in front of and behind the curtain, but also there's so much to be gained from hearing Harry's perspective on things here. Seriously, if you take notes from all the acting homies that have been on the show you'll be in a massively good place to take up the craft yourself... Or at least soak up some free game! You can find Harry on the HBO series 'Industry', in the new Joker movie (which of course gets covered gloriously in part 2 of this chat!), and so many more - peep the IMDB for the runthrough.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by long term Pip and show friend, the amazing poet and author HOLLIE McNISH!It's not Hollie's first go-round here on Distraction Pieces, but the sightings are definitely many years apart so this is a welcome return. Hollie's an incredible writer and performer and insanely worth checking out if you're not yet accustomed. Check the links below (as this is a chat episode and not a performance of course!), but aside from that, just enjoy the goodies on offer here in a really cool episode that covers so many topics and moods... The art of touring and engaging in 'mum talk', food destination disappointment, booking tours like an actual living and breathing human, the wonder of how people and the animal world operate and work with one another, social media and the ups and downs (along with some very valid arguments for, which are not always heard), and sharing poems through visual media and not always through books.

HAPPY PRIDE MONTH from all at the Distraction Pieces Podcast!Every Friday there will be a Rewind episode featuring one of our friends, in case you missed it or simply want to revisit some wonderful chats...Originally broadcast Wednesday, September 9, 2015.Welcome, welcome, welcome to EPISODE 57 of the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by musician, comic, actor, writer and so much more, Jordan Gray aka Tall Dark Friend!This writeup is not from the original episode, but just a quick shout about Jordan. This was their first appearance on Distraction Pieces, the first of many it would turn out, and is one of the episodes you might have heard Pip cite many a time on subsequent episodes. One thing to bear in mind is that this is from almost 10 years ago at this point, and at this point in history we are now at episode 570+. So as you can well imagine, a LOT has been discussed since, much has been learned, many perspectives have been sharpened and multiplied, and we've seen a huge amount happening in the intervening years. Keep this in mind while listening, but also as Jordan has had some incredible leaps and bounds career-wise. A fascinating glimpse back in time, and definitely look back at the then future episodes with show pal Jordan!TWITTERLIVEIMDBTRANSACTIONYOUTUBESTAMPTOWNDYLAN WOODLEYGAULIER CLOWNSSPEECH DEVELOPMENT WEBSTOREPIP TWITCH • (music stuff)PIP INSTAGRAMPIP TWITTERPIP PATREONPIP IMDBPOD BIBLE Hosted on Acast.

Michelle catches us up on a ton of things past and present, including all of the hard edges along with the gooey centres, such as class and money, unknowingly homeless, modeling, luck vs hustle, production of a show and the team behind it, representing South London and elevating it to go against the cliche, comedy, and loads more.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by creative / creator and Twitch legend JAMES HOUSTON aka 1030 for a very special episode...Those more up on the Twitch universe will know 1030 for sure as the hands-on tech creator who is very much a part of the greater community of good people over there. He met Pip via the platform, and over the years has secured a beautiful bond which - to cut to the chase - has resulted in the two of them crafting a blueprint for a film! This film, 'Area Of Outstanding Natural Beauty (A Long Short Film)' is now available to support on Kickstarter, with all information in the link and a bunch in the podcast itself. On the podcast, you'll hear more about the finer details of how the financial process will work, along with what the plan is for the film and all of that good stuff. There's so much happening on this one, primarly geared around the film but also about the working history of James / 1030, media, the film world and so much more, as well as a true genuine bonus treat at the end which is unlike nothing else you've ever heard. Certainly within the realms of Distraction Pieces anyway. Support the Kickstarter and get involved if it's within your means, and otherwise shout far and wide about this one!

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by multi-appearance trophy holder but most importantly, wide ranging awesome actor, JOHN BRADLEY!The acting part is of course more important than the amount of appearances but it's nice to know that John has a home at Distraction Pieces. With the massive Netflix show 'Three Body Problem' making all kinds of waves of late, it's good to catch him on yet another ascent into the stratosphere but also really cool to hear how things have been going since the last time. And indeed, since the beginning of the acting career. A joy as always, as John's friendly voice takes you through all sorts of elements encountered in the world of cinema and television, including his range of roles, exposure to new waves of audiences, Game Of Thrones, pretending, growing through experience, and all sorts more.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by the positive ray of musical light that is BOBBY VYLAN!Speaking of rays of light, the Bobby Vylan album 'Humble As The Sun' comes out on April 5th, so keep that on your agenda. As you know with Distraction Pieces and the work Pip does / has done, the conversations usually dip in and out of music and acting (but not limited too, of course) - and this week, we have a wonderful chat with Bobby of the band of the same name, which goes into the music but also into the very soil from which the music comes... The physical, political and mental landscape, the world around us, and where we're all going. A fascinating conversation which will be of immediate interest to BV fans but also anyone and everyone who is yet to become acquainted. And for those folks, this is the perfect way in.

Don't let the low-key tea-drinking nature fool you for a second, this is a busy person who has been grinding for a minute. The journey's been long and winding, with an early route to be found in acting which was a perfect alignment at that age and juncture, with a ton of work between those early days and now. Not only do we have a pre-Bob role in Barbie to look into, we get to hear all about playing the role as Bob Marley, and the weight of such a role is not lost on him for a second. From meeting the family and friends to being party to the original demos, and the history of the band, and so much more. It sounds like a wild film to be at the front of. Oh and cold water swimming makes an appearance too!

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by stuntperson and all round beam of light DAVD HOLMES!You might have come to know David through the documentary 'The Boy Who Lived', which goes into great detail about his life and the path that led to his stunt work and career in the industry. If you have indeed seen it, you'll know that he's someone who has been through some immense experiences, and lived through one literally life changing one. But David hasn't disappeared from the light or retreated, when it might seem like an entirely understandable reaction. He's gained power and confidence through the strong friendships and relationships he made in his film career, and this has fueled his evolution in no small part, into where he currently finds himself. This is an awesome conversation with someone whose outlook will inspire and delight, and as David himself says, he is "handi-capable, not handicapped". Of course, there are moments of trauma that he wll live with, and these reveal themselves in the conversation, so perhaps take note going in... But don't miss out on this one - it's a classic Distraction Pieces if ever there was one.PIP'S PATREON PAGE if you're of a supporting natureTHE BOY WHO LIVEDINSTAGRAMCAMEOHOSPITAL GOFUNDMECUNNING STUNTS podcastSPEECH DEVELOPMENT WEBSTOREPIP TWITCH • (music stuff)PIP INSTAGRAMPIP TWITTERPIP PATREONPIP IMDBPOD BIBLE Hosted on Acast.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by commentator, activist and rapper LOWKEY!This is Lowkey's second appearance on Distraction Pieces, in what feels right now like a section that ought to be there every episode. Lowkey is very well versed on matters involving Israel and Palestine and the situation past and present, so this episode was recorded a day before it was released to be as up to date as possible. Pip caught up with Lowkey at 10pm on a Monday, and if you heard his previous appearance, you'll know that this is the kind of episode where you'll almost want to keep a pen and pad nearby to take notes. Of course it's good to have a wide range of views and opinions, but it's fair to say that Lowkey has a very well informed and sharp understanding of history and a present awareness that not everyone does. So in a time where you can hear random unfiltered opinion (and often opinion which wasn't invited either), it's a relief to have some sane, balanced and calm tones to hear on what's going on. Let's leave it to the episode to speak for itself but definitely give this one some time and attention, and by all means share far and wide.DON'T FORGET PIP ON PATREON if you're of a supporting natureLOWKEY IGLOWKEY TWITTERMINT PRESS NEWS / WatchdogEPISODE 407 w/ LowkeySPEECH DEVELOPMENT WEBSTOREPIP TWITCH • (music stuff)PIP INSTAGRAMPIP TWITTERPIP PATREONPIP IMDBPOD BIBLE Hosted on Acast.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by the Grimsby comic legend LLOYD GRIFFITH!You'll know Lloyd from hus various outings and aboutings, and maybe more prominently from Soccer AM - but that is far from the extent of Lloyd's talents of course. You might catch him out on the road casually tearing down arenas with Jack Whitehall, of which you'll hear all about right here - including some very pertinent thoughts on the actual realistics of playing huge venues as opposed to smaller ones. In fact you'll hear a lot of this, various thoughts and perspectives on comedy and the behind the scenes of it all that you don't really hear a lot of. There's also some very interesting Edinburgh Fringe stuff too which offers a lot that you might not hear in the usual spots. And community, and football. Anyway - enjoy it all, and if you don't know Lloyd yet, as always with Distraction Pieces, prepare to make a new pal.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by comic, author and actor BRIDGET CHRISTIE!A really lovely chat and catch up (and missing piece of the long-term Distraction Pieces puzzle) with Pip and Bridget, which comes at a perfect time in sync with Bridget's new series on Channel 4 'The Change'. You'll hear all about the amazing process of getting it off the ground and what else is involved in getting pitches picked and developed (it's a side of the industry which is by no means an easy world), but in hearing about The Change you'll also get a perfect insight into the greater universe of Bridget and where she's at currently. It's all a perfect confluence and meeting of a lot of experience, life and timing, and the timing is all pretty much perfect it seems.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by Enter Shikari's ROU REYNOLDS!...and if you remember all the way back to episode 27 where Rou made his debut on Distraction Pieces, you will know that his name is pronounced "Rou like cow, not Rou like moo". But that aside - we welcome back Rou, in this excellent episode which delves into so much more than music. Situating ourselves immediately in the surroundings of Pip's old uni town of Wolverhampton, we hear about everything including politics and how to transmit that as a band, being a frontperson and the emotional toll, gender hangups and new arguments within, the Overton Window (see links below if unfamiliar), the creative drought of the pandemic, and of course MUSIC! Burying the lead there! So enjoy this welcome return and share freely - as with all episodes - you as a listener form a very important part of the Distraction Pieces chain.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by the duo of incredible poet and filmmaker SAUL WILLIAMS and stellar actor and playwright ANISIA UZEYMAN!Saul is back on the Distraction Pieces couch for his second appearance in the show's history (first time was incredible), and as you can well imagine, you're in for treats galore. Not only that, you can double up on said treats by adding the wonderful Anisia Uzeyman into the mix, as the two drop science in an orderly fashion! A huge amount of perspective, viewpoint and opinion which you will definitely enjoy being in on, but also you'll hear about their film Neptune Frost. If you haven't seen or heard about the film, for goodness sake look at the trailer for some context - it's incredible, and will give a perfect foundation for ths chat with the makers. Or better yet - watch the film. Fans of Saul will heavily appreciate this, and if you're familiar with the work of Anisia you'll love it. And all rounded up with some glorious hip hop anecdotery in case you forgot who you were dealing with here.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is flying solo to answer a flurry of questions from YOU, the listeners and viewers!In keeping with Distraction Pieces tradition, Pip likes to have a week to himself from time to time and here we are, deep in mid-February, to open up the mailbag. Even saying 'mailbag' is such a nostalgia trigger for most of us. Didn't that kind of thing die out not long after the 90's arrived? What was it replaced by? Maybe that should have been my question for this episode. Anyway - expect a nice gathering of input from friends and fans and long/medium/short term listeners, with light shed on various topics from music to film to Twitch to everything besides. Just don't ask when we can expect more music. Deal? Deal.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!Prepare your snacks accordingly (preferably quiet ones) as Pip runs you through his FILMS OF THE YEAR 2022!Happy and prosperous new years to you all! All of us here at Distraction Pieces wish you a wonderful year ahead in all of your endeavours. Here's hoping for a positive one in 2023. As tradition dictates, here is Pip to deliver his timely rundown of all of the films he saw in 2022, broken down into a criteria of which he will explain, and with clear parameters and boundaries so all is fair and equal. One thing to point out, as is always necessary with the film lists, is that this list is not your list. When Pip mentions a film he loved, the mention of that film does not magically erase the films you loved, nor shuffle the order around of your own lists (mental or physical). So YES your choices may be different but NO your opinions are still valid. But this is not grounds for debate. This is a perfect chance to start 2023 with a positive perspective - let's celebrate the things that are great and not spend a ton of time breaking down why we didn't like the other stuff. I dunno, let's see. Could be the start of a glorious trend... With that in mind - let Pip take you on a walk through the woods while he talks films at ya.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!A very special bonus episode as Pip talks with LISA SIMPSON, whose son was killed by police in 2016.Before going in, know that this episode is obviously a heavy one with many nuanced elements. Lisa has been actively vocal about her feelings and experiences with the Black Lives Matter movement since her son Richard Risher was murdered by the Los Angeles Police Department on July 25th 2016. Not only has she had to face burying her son, and dealing with the aftermath of the law being responsible for his death, she's also had to deal with negative run ins with the Black Lives Matter movement who have made false promises to her for a while now, among other grievances.It's her experience to share, and her story to tell, and is a layered problem which you'll see as you hear from Lisa. This is in the interest of balance, as Patrisse Cullors of BLM guested on episode 195 of Distraction Pieces (linked below), so it's only fair Lisa has her right to reply.LISA LINKS (and related)EPISODE 195 with PATRISSE CULLORSLISA on BNC TVLAPD REPORTLA TIMES COLUMNSCROOBIUS PIP on TWITCHSCROOBIUS PIP on INSTAGRAMSCROOBIUS PIP on TWITTERSCROOBIUS PIP on PATREONDEBRISNORTH STAR RISINGPOD BIBLESPEECH DEVELOPMENT RECORDSDISTRACTION PIECES NETWORK on FACEBOOKDISTRACTION PIECES NETWORK on INSTAGRAMDISTRACTION PIECES PODCAST ARCHIVE See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
