Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip

emocleW, emocleW, emocleW to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This is your bonus FRIDAY REWIND episode! Today, we catch up with Wes Borland, originally episode 25 from 2015-03-18.A very cool early episode featuring the guitarist of Limp Bizkit and many other groups besides. This was about 6 months into the evolution of Distraction Pieces so it's one of those time capsule episodes which are great for those who missed it first time, or just want to hear an episode from someone they might even usually miss out on. With so many guests on so many different shows, some might get lost in the shuffle from time to time, and also some folks might have gotten into Limp Bizkit for instance in the past 5 years! So what better way to look back at a great time than by jumping in on the Rewind episode...

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by long term groupmate and music making legend DAN LE SAC!Together of course, they form Dan Le Sac Vs Scroobius Pip though - a duo name of which you will be abundantly familiar. To celebrate the release of their 'Live In Places' live recordings compendium and physical release, Dan and Pip met up in physical form to talk about all things past, present and future in equal balance. It's not a stream of "Do you remember that time..." either, it goes way beyond that but expect some expert tangent taking though! So much life has happened since they got together to make their first releases, and since locking in on their individual paths, there have been huge departures from as well as continuations into what came before. It's lovely that all is amicable and supportive and while, as said in the episode title to quote Uncle LL Cool J, it is not a comeback (they been here for years), it is a reunion of sorts and a truly delightful one at that. Enjoy these two in conversation and go cop that live album too, what are you doing?!

emocleW, emocleW, emocleW to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This is your bonus FRIDAY REWIND episode! Today, we catch up with Ashley Walters, originally episode 317 from 2020-03-18.Original writeup below:Okay - in case you don’t recognise that name right there immediately, let’s bring you up to speed. ASHER D FROM SO SOLID. Ring a bell? DUSHANE FROM TOP BOY! Getting through yet? RICKY FROM BULLETPROOF? Don’t make me get all Biff from Back To The Future and knock on your head to make sure you’re on the same page… Anyway - it’s Ashley Walters! A fascinating chat and as with a lot of Distraction Pieces episodes, one that feels like it’s been on the cards for a minute. The two get down to it and cover it all from getting in shape and being more mindful re: bodies, representation and the path to Bulletproof, working with Noel Clarke and becoming his pal, working with Carol Jackson from Eastenders (sorry, Lindsey Coulson), being multi-disciplined from a young age, The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles, time spent in prison and lessons learned on release, Top Boy, So Solid, all that good stuff and TOO MUCH to fit into a write up here. You’ll love it.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by hilarious comic and now author RHYS JAMES!An immediately bubbly and scattered catchup with Pip and Rhys, as they transmit in podcast-time from Rhys's equivalent of what Adam Buxton refers to as his 'nutty room'. On top of all things book related, centring around his very new 'You'll Like It When You Get There', he and Pip check in on many and much including house layouts and room purposes (where IS the best spot for a shower?), being a hygeine guy, "come and say hello", comedy specials and the wide world within, the joy of a canceled plan, the tightrope of too much or too little in the audiobook space, speed of standup performance relative to himself, and as said, a good amount of book chat. It's of course fascinating to hear about the process and how everything forms and shapes, so even if you're unfamiliar with Rhys you'll likely get a huge amount from the "tech talk" and behind the scenes biz.

emocleW, emocleW, emocleW to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This is your bonus FRIDAY REWIND episode! Today, we catch up with Kaitlyn Dever, originally episode 475 from 2022-09-21.Original writeup below:If you are unaware of Kaitlyn in your adventures through the wide world of broadcast media, prepare to make fast friends with a true great, and an absolute gem of a person at that. Kaitlyn's been putting down serious moves since childhood, including a Shakespeare stint at RADA (Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts for those pondering), and her filmography is stellar - ranging from Justified, to Dopesick, to Unbelievable, and more recently Ticket To Paradise (starring alongside Julia Roberts and George Clooney, where the cinema screen actually cracks midway through from so much gorgeous). This is a lovely chat, properly engaging and it's such a treat to hear Kaitlyn's story. OH and as Pip hints at in the intro, prepare for a Kaitlyn fact that will blow yer mind. She casually peppers it in there but thankfully Pip mashes on the brakes and reverses and double takes seamlessly. Enjoy!

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by the incredible actor XELIA MENDES-JONES!Such a great episode as Pip and Xelia catch up over everything involved with life on and off screen (I mean, mainly on-screen - but there's huge amounts on both sides). Xelia has led a unique journey from an initially very promising start in football right up to getting self-tape auditions sent out and landing some major roles in the process. Of course, you'll hear about the whole journey and a ton elsewhere too, as Xelia has a lot to report from said off-screen environments including navigating their path as a trans person. So much to enjoy and discover and Xelia's awesome company.

emocleW, emocleW, emocleW to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This is your bonus FRIDAY REWIND episode! Today, we catch up with Stewart Lee, originally episode 15 from 2015-01-21.A VERY early episode from the back catalogue but one that is hugely important in the DPP canon. This episode is refered to to this very day, and has remained a firm favourite of you all, the DPP crew. Those of you who have heard it, of course. Something similar happened on Marc Maron's WTF podcast when Stewart Lee guested on there all those years ago - it still comes up. So here's a perfect chance to catch up with an amazing comedy mind, essential listening for those who enjoy this podcast and want to hear one of the earlier moments that helped shape the show of the future, and always interesting to hear how different the world was back then.PIP'S PATREON PAGE if you're of a supporting natureONLINE (the most comprehensive resource for anything Stewart related!)DAN LE SAC VS SCROOBIUS PIP BANDCAMPPIP TWITCH • (music stuff)PIP INSTAGRAMSPEECH DEVELOPMENT WEBSTOREPIP TWITTERPIP IMDBPOD BIBLE

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by the glorious actor MICHAEL SOCHA! Part 2 of 2!Drop right into this really lovely chat with Michael and Pip, who previously chatted in podcast form all them years back in 2016! Verging on a decade. Time marches on doesn't it. It's lovely to hear from Michael this time around with so much passed, but it isn't just re-call from that time, and catching up on those years. It's a typically wide-ranging conversation spread over two parts, bringing in so much of the acting world but also the various bits and pieces that inform the acting world and work within it. In the mix you can hear about such items as the good old self tape versus in-the-room debate, giving and receiving advice, the opposing and contradictory ends of the spiritual spectrum, trust, workshopping, Shane Meadows and some real nice wrestling analogies. But so much more, as you can tell by the simple fact that this is a two parter. So go in! Enjoy!
