Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip

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 3!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.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by the great and glorious comic and writer ALEX EDELMAN!A perfect episode to shed some light and positivity on a lot of what's happened in the US over the past month and much further back too, in case you need it. But also just to let you know in case you're studiously avoiding such topics - this isn't a self pitying doom and gloom-fest by any means so fear not. Alex is very well versed in this stuff so you're in safe hands, and also it's not ALL about that! So again - fear not. It turns out Alex is a missing piece of the DPP puzzle and a very welcome addition to the guest list, and you'll hear about all the aspects that are relevant to his world including time in Boston, success at Edinburgh Fringe in 2014 which opened a whole new path, UK comedy, having many pals over here in the same comedic universe, divisions and how to meet them and bridge the gaps, approaching the world with its wide range of problems, and pastries. In a more simple life, pastries might just be the answer.PIP'S PATREON PAGE if you're of a supporting natureONLINEINSTAGRAMJUST FOR USPATREONSPEECH DEVELOPMENT WEBSTOREPIP TWITCH • (music stuff)PIP INSTAGRAMPIP TWITTERPIP PATREONPIP IMDBPOD BIBLE

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by author, journalist and producer DANNY WALLACE!Hard to pin down what professions you'd attribute to Danny but that's a start anyway... Danny joined Pip back in 2015 for episode 30 which seems unfathomable but it's true. So of course, in 9 years, obviously stuff's basically the same and there's weirdly nothing to talk about. OF COURSE I'm being silly. It could have gone on for about the duration of Danny's audiobook, but a line must be drawn somewhere. His book 'Somebody Told Me' explores the world of the conspiracy theory, detailing the many elements contained in this wide world, and he and Pip have much to say on the subject. It's a fascinating episode with not all doom and gloom, so fear not - you won't leave sad. If this is an area that intrigues you though, it's essential listening and a timely reminder to keep your wits about you as you navigate this world, especially in the realms of social media. What is interesting too is how this stuff has always been happening - but certain factors of modern life can amplify it, including isolation. Take some notes when you listen - and remember not only to tell people what you heard by saying "I heard on this podcast that...", but to end each sentence with an enigmatic "You'll see...". You'll see.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by multi-faceted diamond actor/comic/rapper/host BEN BAILEY SMITH aka DOC BROWN!A lovely episode and first return journey since episode 161 in 2017! Ben's always a welcome guest, and it's a heartening meet-up with two folks here in positions not so dissimilar to one another. Ben has had a good amount of years in the rap game, which he's returning to presently to fabulous reception, and also has heavy previous in the acting world - interestingly both he and Pip have been parts of the Star Wars universe too, so there's that! A really nice ep, with some takes on hip hop history, recognition and memory, Star Wars geekouts, post-blow-up career pivots, returning to rap with producer Tony Bones, sorting out your stage sound as a rapper (ring out your mic!), and how Pip had a direct inspiration on something Ben did later. Good times and always lovely to hear about what's cracking in Ben's lane. Lovely stuff.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by the wonderful writer, podcaster, artist and filmmaker POPPY HILLSTEAD!Poppy's been in the game for a minute and you will very likely know and appreciate her fine work in the podcasting realm (including Gossipmongers, Has Entered The Chat and presently Brainwash Me, but she's been putting in a ton of work over the years in all aspects of the media. We catch up with Poppy hot on the heels of a returning pet cat, and go straight into the very strange world of the chatroom areas of the internet and how they almost instantly elevate to sex talk, her many varied podcasts, finding comedy through early animation work, the adoption of a brainscanner for the new podcast, sections of society that are either chill or just weird, and bringing out and/or celebrating the gross. Fun and crazy at all times, and when dealing with the underworld of the internet, just to let you know, expect to hear some extreme bits and pieces here and there (nothing purely miserable, just, ya know, be cautious if you're sensitive!).
