Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by actor and director OTTO BAXTER!...and joined by PETER BEARD and BRUCE FLETCHER of course. The trio here are responsible for the horror film 'The Puppet Asylum', and the documentary about Otto and the making of said film, 'Otto Baxter: Not A F*cking Horror Story'. Otto lives with Down Syndrome, which is of course not the main focus of this ace human but something that has had an affect on his world since birth. It's a great thing to hear about the making of the feature and the documentary, and a cool way of looking at such a creative outpouring. In this chat you hear the loud and proud Otto himself and from the directors involved who make a great pyramid of setup, explanation, discussion and general fun. At times you might notice that it's not the most calm, meditative and laidback ride BUT please don't let that draw you away - it's a really cool look at the world of Otto and the worlds Otto has created.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by actor, writer and comic ANDI OSHO!Another delightful time right here for you, as Pip and Andi catch up and get right into all things of interest quickly and with no hesitation. So much ground gets covered and it's all super inspiring, including bodies and minds and neuroplasticity, dealing with energies at school, earnestness and not feeling the cynicism, spending time being out of touch with pop music, logic puzzles of standup, bookwriting mechanics, winning the room and acting on the whole - as well as all that amazing connective tissue that comes with it... A great time so do not pass this one up.DON'T FORGET PIP ON PATREON if you're of a supporting natureANDI ONLINEIMDBINSTAGRAMSPEECH DEVELOPMENT RECORDS WEBSTOREPIP on TWITCH • (music stuff)PIP on INSTAGRAMPIP on TWITTERPIP on PATREONPIP on IMDBPOD BIBLE

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by actor and writer and second time guest SUSAN WOKOMA!A true delight right here as Susan jumps back in the DPP game for another sureshot episode, and as you'll hear - and as you'd expect - in about 6 years or so SO MUCH HAS HAPPENED. But also, reassuringly there's a lot left on the side so this bodes well for a third appearance in the future...!Amongst the goodness you can expect from Susan in this Grade A ep, we get to hear about her strut, her younger days Helen Mirren obsession, the enforced scarcity mentality of women in the industry, industry dissillusionment, being comfortable in her body, Cheaters, life re-evaluations, the turning point of reductive and weird feedback, pride in comedic acting, how tough comedic acting is, working with the awesome Deborah Frances-White and the importance of passion. Jewels and gems to be gained especially if you're someone involved in the industry or considering it. Go back and peep the first ep if you missed it!

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by comic excellence and ace human being JOSH PUGH!One of those geniunely organic episodes which seems to form from the ground up and find a rhythm and pace all of its own. A lovely look into the mind of Josh, who specialises in comedy and standup but with a very social approach, which feels like it stems from his work in the social sector over the years. That comes up later which is fascinating and really great to hear about, but expect to hear everything from the other points of his life, including his recent Fringe work in progress run, to the origins and roots in comedy, vision impairment, social media, people who "crack the algorithm" and all the other things it takes to be a part of the comedy world. Great stuff, and very inspiring. Enjoy!ALSO - Pip indicates this in the intro but just in case, there's a little 5 minute bonus with Blindboy around halfway through the ep. All will make sense. And it's much fun.DON'T FORGET PIP ON PATREON if you're of a supporting natureTWITTERINSTAGRAMONLINEALL LINKSSCROOBIUS PIP on TWITCHSCROOBIUS PIP on INSTAGRAMSCROOBIUS PIP on TWITTERSCROOBIUS PIP on PATREONSCROOBIUS PIP on IMDBPOD BIBLE

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by dancehall champion and superstar reggae musician SHAGGY!Very broadly speaking, a lot of you will know Shaggy as Mr Boombastic, or the guy who did Oh Carolina and It Wasn't Me. But dig a little deeper and there are worlds of releases and shows and all sorts of stories from the past that are just too exciting and interesting to pass up on... And that's what makes this last minute convo with Pip and Shaggy so awesome! It's the stories behind the hits that are amazing, and the historical signifigance of them too. But in that world, of course there will be all kinds of run-ins, collabos, tales and amazing anecdotes, and Shaggy delivers on all counts. So whether you're a full on dancehall reggae appreciator or someone who remembers the name, don't miss this one - it's super entertaining and a fascinating trip from start to end.DON'T FORGET PIP ON PATREON if you're of a supporting natureINSTAGRAMONE FINE DAY FESTIVAL w/ STINGSPOTIFYKENNY DOPE & SHAGGY (Buddy's pick!)OH CAROLINAIT WASN'T MEBOOMBASTICSCROOBIUS PIP on TWITCHSCROOBIUS PIP on INSTAGRAMSCROOBIUS PIP on TWITTERSCROOBIUS PIP on PATREONSCROOBIUS PIP on IMDBPOD BIBLE

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by rapper, podcaster, producer, showmaker and all round multi-hyphenate OPEN MIKE EAGLE!This one's what they call a kinda 'special request' episode, where - to break the 4th wall - I (Buddy ✌🏼) suggested to Pip about getting Mike on again. Mike's been on before but YEARRRS ago and while his episode is obviously well worth checking, this is the more up to date one being a good 8 years after! And so much has happened in those years... New albums, a podcast network containing a bunch of series of awesome podcasts, a show, Twitch, a pandemic, and to quote Mike, "anime, trauma and divorce". Not all of these are in this episode but ya know, it all goes in the stew somewhere doesn't it. A lovely episode and Mike's always a treat - expect a good old fashioned catch up with many tangents within. ENJOY! And listen to all the stuff - and Mike's on Patreon too, links are below >>>DON'T FORGET PIP ON PATREON if you're of a supporting natureBANDCAMPINSTAGRAMYOUTUBETWITTERALL THE LINKSSCROOBIUS PIP on TWITCHSCROOBIUS PIP on INSTAGRAMSCROOBIUS PIP on TWITTERSCROOBIUS PIP on PATREONSCROOBIUS PIP on IMDBPOD BIBLE

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by comic, podcaster and writer LOU SANDERS!A treat for sure, as always with Lou, as we catch up on a bunch of life stuff and cool happenings in her world including healers, spiritual goings on, her past life as a band member, face biting, book writing, growing up in Thanet, sweat lodges, cultural appropriation, marriage and relationships, the concept of 'enough', living a playboy lifestyle and memory. A ton to dive into and all mixed seamlessly like a conversation mixtape. Wonderful stuff - enjoy, and catch Lou's book too - just read it quickly before she digs you out about how long you're taking 'kay?DON'T FORGET PIP ON PATREON if you're of a supporting natureLOU ONLINEINSTAGRAMTWITTERWHAT'S THAT LADY DOING?

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined for the second time in many years by comic star and friend of the show JOSIE LONG!It's been a bunch of years since Josie last joined the Distraction Pieces Podcast, and only through reasons of busy-ness and life's carousel is it that we haven't seen a return for a bit. Well it's a welcome reunion as, with all reunion episodes, so much life has happened in the interviening years. Josie's now a 2x mother, and has had a film out (both incidents we are brought up to speed on), but there's a bunch of other bits and pieces too. Existential and present, political and social, interior and exterior, neurotypical and neurodiverse, and swimming! Prepare to catch up on all of it, as Josie brings the uniquely great energy and green lights to the table.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by the truly fabulous acting star SASHA LANE!By now you will have surely seen at least one of Sasha's starring roles in Loki, American Honey, How To Blow Up A Pipeline or presently The Crowded Room - but if not, you'll absolutely want to go and check on what Sasha's up to after hearing this chat. While mainly focusing on the matter at hand which is the last two projects (Pipeline and Crowded, for brevity), you'll hear a ton about Sasha's process, working relationships and working boundaries, and all that comes with the work on screen. There's such a lot happening on said screen and behind the scenes so it's great to get an honest perspective on things, which is what Sasha truly delivers.* BUDDY NOTE!The sound on Sasha's side is a little tricky sometimes and at worst, a little hard to make out. I've done a fair job and retained what I could, but this was the only option we had - luckily our ears are tough little things and can get used to this sort of stuff, but apologies for a slightly less easy listen than you've become accustomed to. Just wanted to let you know that's all.
