Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by the incredible Rebecca Lucy Taylor aka SELF ESTEEM!A huge episode right here, spraypaint-style in content in that it contains so much more than the runtime might suggest. The magnificent Self Esteem joins Pip to talk on all things including creativity, motivation, mental wellbeing, burnout, band psychology, getting ahead of potential comments, catharthis through lyricism, touring and how the terrain is geared towards men, being a "diva" when asking for things, and just so much more which only call for a part 2 in the near future. But without getting ahead of ourselves, let's enjoy the greatness of this one, and go and listen and watch at nearest opportunities. You'll love this episode.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined once more by the wonderful poet, writer, actor and comic TIM KEY!A multi-hyphenate for certain, Tim Key's blessed the Distraction Pieces podcast stage in previous years but it's a huge treat whenever it happens. Here we find Tim and Pip catching up about Tim's latest podcast appearances, which might seem meta being that this is happening while he's appearing on a podcast, but you know it's a goody. Much ground is covered, including fruit talk (grapefruit fans your prayers have been answered), running and body shape, humane mousetrapping, Pip adonis, a mid-podcast shopping drop which forms a perfect segue, and of course said podcast chat. You know it's a winner. Enjoy the company of Tim, for an amount of time that's never long enough!TIM ONLINETWITTERINSTAGRAMCHATTIN' SHIT PODCASTOFF MENUWALKING THE DOG with EMILY DEANTHE MOON UNDER WATERRHLSTPMY MATE BOUGHT A TOASTERNO MORE JOCKEYSALL BOOKS & SHOPPABLESEMILY JUNIPER artistSCROOBIUS PIP on TWITCHSCROOBIUS PIP on INSTAGRAMSCROOBIUS PIP on TWITTERSCROOBIUS PIP on PATREONDEBRISNORTH STAR RISINGPOD BIBLE Hosted on Acast.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by acting great JACK LOWDEN!A sureshot favourite of Pip's, Jack has been in a ton of verified excellent television and film over the last decade or more, and the filmography is undeniable. Cast an eye over the IMDB and you'll surely see some bits and pieces that you've take to your own heart over the years - including the forthcoming 'Benediction' of course... This is a great chat with loads of awesome nuggets of goodness throughout, including all sorts to do with process, creation, origins, inspiration and everything that goes into what Jack does and how he does it. A surprising amount is crammed into the running time so prepare for a wild ride!BENEDICTION will be released on 20th May in UK and Irish cinemas.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by directing legend GASPAR NOE!Given that Pip had a mere handful of hours to prepare before that nerve jangling Zoom chat admission screen came up, this chat with Gaspar Noe went as smooth as you could possibly imagine. If you're a long term listener, you'll understand the reverence to which Pip applies to the director of Irreversible, Enter The Void, and new film Vortex among others, and so it must have been a daunting but incredible chance to form the experience into a podcast - as you will hear, it not only covers Noe's recent brush with death and subsequent recovery, but also his process, the importance of casting and crew, life, love, substances, and film in general. It's almost an episode of Films To Be Buried With, to be honest. Have a look at the references below if you miss anything - most are here - but otherwise, enjoy this amazing chat with Gaspar Noe and lifelong Gaspar Noe fan Pip!GASPAR LINKSGASPAR IMDBVORTEXREFERENCES IN PODCASTKENJI MIZOGUCHIMIKIO NARUSEKEISUKE KINOSHITAANDREI RUBLEV by TARKOVSKYLA NUIT AMERICAINE by TRUFFAUTPARADISE LOVE by ULRICH SEIDLSUNDAYS & CYBELE by BOURGUIGNONREPULSION by POLANSKISECONDS by FRANKENHEIMERTHREADSTODD SOLONDZSCROOBIUS PIP on TWITCHSCROOBIUS PIP on INSTAGRAMSCROOBIUS PIP on TWITTERSCROOBIUS PIP on PATREONDEBRISNORTH STAR RISINGPOD BIBLE Hosted on Acast.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by acting superhero BENEDICT WONG!A marvelous and Marvel-ful episode as Pip has a long overdue catch up with the Salford hero Benedict Wong, which comes equiped with good vibes, positivity and inspiring nuggets from all sides. Kicking off with some record dealings up top, we glide into such matters as London acting gig drama, Mancunian origins, the great Sean Lock and working on 15 Storeys High, Dirty Pretty Things, Top Boy, internalising racism while working in the family chippie, representing himself as Wong & Only, the Marvel Universe, Wong Is Wong, Meisner, and just too much to be bulletpointed here basically.

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 Hosted on Acast.
