    23/03/2016 Duración: 01h08min

    (welcome) WELCOME w-e-l-c-o-m-e (trying to match Pip's impulse to change that cadence at the start) to your 90th episode of the Distraction Pieces Podcast, featuring the wonderful and crazy skilled Georgina Campbell! A bright and breezy chat to match the time of year, with a super nice back and forth between Georgina and Pip covering all the good stuff, from her being talent-scouted in the street, to her earlier roles and influences, her awards win for 'Murdered By My Boyfriend', and the back catalogue of goodness as well as the - forward? - catalogue of greatness down the road... Such a nice, uplifting and inspiring chat from one of the UK's finest. Georgina Campbell is your new best friend!  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

  • Blindboy of The Rubberbandits - Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip #89

    16/03/2016 Duración: 01h23min

    Here. Have a welcome. In fact, nah brother man, here have three. Okay fair enough, no Mr Wendall references going forward. Please welcome this week's truly unique and fascinating guest, it's Limerick's own Blindboy from The Rubberbandits! An absorbing and engaging chat with a very interesting character, who plays half of the Irish comedy music duo who perform and roam the earth with plastic bags over their faces. If you are unfamiliar with the two, let Blindboy take you through it himself as we become acquainted with the very deep thinking and articulate performer, and get an insight into the iceberg-like hidden depths of their songs, how their popularity became a weight on their shoulders which they shook off and refreshed, their forward thinking and evolved points of view and how they really work the humour as a trojan horse (outside) (you'll get it) for their progressive thinking. Oh and Baudrillard and Sartre get a shout out too yo. Excellent stuff. Also - sound note - it may sound scarily like... &

  • LEAP UK special - Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip #88

    11/03/2016 Duración: 39min

    All of the welcomes and a very merry Friday to you, and for making it to the end of the week here is a bonus Distraction Pieces Podcast to rock and shock your pre-weekend listening entertainment... It's a LEAP UK exclusive, and their formal introduction into the DISTRACTION PIECES NETWORK! (More on that particular nugget to come in due course...) All shall be made clear in Pip's introduction and indeed, outroduction, but essentially this is a fairly rough and ready recording snatched from a post-Houses Of Parliament appearance from the LEAP collective as they celebrated up in Waterstones in Tottenham Court Road, London! It was a worthwhile recording, as we hear from a number of LEAP affiliates and their experiences and hopes for future change on the whole, and what can be done / is being done toward that. A perfect addition to DPP episode 81 with Jason Reed of LEAP. Enjoy the weekend!  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

  • Stephen Graham - Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip #87

    09/03/2016 Duración: 01h44min

    Not one, not two, but THREE welcomes upon you as standard to episode 87 of the Distraction Pieces Podcast, with Kirby's own cinema superstar Mr Stephen Graham! Full on good time chatter goodness from Pip and Stephen as they get along like old pals (with one very important thing in common - no spoilers here yo, you'll find out), and we glean much from Stephen's diverse acting career. From his beginnings as a self proclaimed scally out on the streets to his acting school progressions right up to his well earned and crazy great roles in some gigantic cinema smashes like Snatch, Pirates Of The Caribbean, This Is England and starring in the massive Boardwalk Empire as none other than Al Capone. AND starring alongside our very own Pip too in the forthcoming 'Taboo'! A lovely chat, with a lovely guy. Distract yerself fully with this one folks.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

  • Housing for Women special - Mira - Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip #86

    02/03/2016 Duración: 01h37min

    Welcome, welcome, welcome to episode 86 of the Distraction Pieces Podcast, a special with Housing For Women and guest Mira! Pip breaks down the full process of what it took to get to the interview/chat stage with guest Mira in the intro (including the discussions with Comic Relief/Sport Relief and Housing For Women), which will prime you perfectly for what follows. And indeed, what follows from guest Mira is awfully hard to take in but a truly valuable, and an ultimately inspiring tale of what can happen after being swept up in a wave of unfairness, abuse, incredible mistreatment and a web of terrible people. Heavy, unflinchingly honest and very upfront, but a story that might have otherwise gone unheard - and Mira is a wonderful, positive person to share a Distraction Pieces Podcast with. A truly encouraging story which shows how much projects like Housing For Women's 'Re-Place' initiative can help lives be rebuilt and restructured. Thank you to Comic Relief and Sport Relief, Housing For Women and the... &
