WELCOME WELCOME WELCOME once again three more times to your weekly dose of Distraction Pieces Podcast in mp3 format from up in the sky somewhere directly to your earpieces! This week your host Scroobius Pip is joined by none other than his old pal and script/screenwriter Kelly Marcel!A crazy story right here which Kelly unfolds for you, not before she relays how she rescued a fearless but accident prone squirrel and nursed it back to bitey and aggro health... From her days back in the book corner at school (a punishment area, not for recreation) up to her days in the video store hanging with a then fairly green Tom Hardy, and her reasons for ending up there which involved a not so supportive school system, hear how she became a full on fully qualified silver screen smash through various acting jobs (of COURSE The Bill is involved!), up to her crossing paths with the director of all directors himself Stephen Spielberg. The story gets no less intense or full on from there on, as she barrels through such... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Welcome welcome welcome to episode 146 of the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip! Congratulations on making it out of that drunken mess from last week and emerging out the other side unscathed (we certainly hope) - for now, you are about to witness the joy that is Steven Camden aka Polarbear!The long awaited, often requested spoken word artist / author / many other crafts beside, joins Pip this week for a grand old get together and full on chat covering just about everything... Being pals for many a year from the early days, rocking tours together and just being genuine mates who talk and do stuff together, they have a lot to ramble about and many bases are covered - the craft itself, the makers and doers, how they got where they are, what they're up to now, life, love, the universe, the whole thing. So much to enjoy and listen back to, you'll love this one - and you get a nice bonus treat of Polar's track 'Jessica' in there too for good measure, how does that grab ya? Decent. All yours - have...

As such, you are rewarded with another bunch of boozed up business from our bubbly brethren as they tackle a LOT of MMA/UFC and fight talk - a lot - which is bookended with some more podcast talk and a lil' section on relationship chatter sparked by some recent comments from Scarlett Johannson. There is also a rather noisy crescendo to this episode, so just be prepared for your ears and even those around you - it gets messy. You know the routine. Come on, this is the final part of the podcast where Pip gets drunk with two of his mates. What else did you expect?Good work folks, you did grand! Congratulations on grabbing these three DrunkCasts.

More relentless inebriated banter for your listening enjoyment, as Pip is joined again by Chris and Stu in the Whiff Inn, the ONLY private pub in Essex worth checking for...A film heavy episode right here, with a ton of top film picks, chatter and gossip, some TV talk, and all that good stuff.

WELCOME WELCOME WELCOME (three in a row, no commas) to another slammer of an episode of the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip! A proper jolly episode it is too, as Pip is joined by James Buckley, or as you may know him, Jay from The Inbetweeners! Or indeed any other given name of one of his many roles on television...Pip was introduced to James via his DrunkCast (and real life) mate Stu Whiffen, and here we are in the room with the two, kicking it like old mates - a nice and broad-ranging conversation, hitting on The Inbetweeners as you would expect and demand, playing young Del Boy in Rock & Chips, his own computer gaming Youtube channel 'Completed It Mate' and how he started and developed it all, his life out in Los Angeles and the myriad weirdness within, and being an actor in general. His take on being an Englishman out there and auditioning is well worth peeping, and hints and how UK folk have a knack for cutting through that actor-type-stuff with genuine awkward UK charm. Race relations... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Wokoma, Wokoma, Wokoma to another powerful episode of the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip! And now you know the guest this week but nevertheless, she deserves two mentions at the very least because she smashed it - it's Susan Wokoma! Welcome welcome welcome to EPISODE 143!A fantastic banter with Pip and Susan, going in deep on all aspects of her personal history, all the way back to her school days in a multicultural environment and the many positive influences that can have, to being encouraged to apply to the National Youth Theatre by a teacher, and her inspiring journey through to where she currently finds herself atop the summit of UK acting talent! A super entertaining journey, and a lovely chat bringing in tales of her parents, her neighbours (good, bad and conflicted), her teachers, mates, acting roles and general outlook on the whole path, as well as - of course - her killing it in 'Chewing Gum' and 'Crazyhead'. She'll make you smile for certain, and as her new pal you should keep... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This is the second part of the fighter double bill this week, with the cool calm Canadian, Rory MacDonald!A huge Distraction Pieces guest, especially for the MMA heads out there (oh there must several of you by now...), and Pip sits down with the young legend to comb through the insanely eventful career of his, going through the UFC days, his past fights, his future, his broken nose(s) and a heavy amount besides... Expect to see him headline Bellator this May too! Power moves. A perfect follow up to the awesome Dan Hardy episode on Wednesday.
