Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip

WELCOME WELCOME WELCOME and SURPRISE - it's a full strength Monday morning shot of triple-distilled Distraction Pieces goodness for your immediate attention!Not so much a DrunkCast as a Sleep-DeprivedCast BUT no less on point and razor sharp, as Pip is joined by the DrunkCast regular and Distraction Pieces Champ/Redshift Rebels homie Mr Chris Glasson, as well as special guest Sam Marshall of Chester Le Street CrossFit (who you will know from various references and bigups in previous podcasts).A very full on UFC reaction podcast right here as the trio go DEEP into UFC 205 and the results/events therein, as well as several nuggets and tidbits laced throughout.

WELCOME WELCOME WELCOME - three welcome as standard of course - to episode 123 of your weekly Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip! ...and what a perfect companion to last weeks broadcasting gold, as we welcome (thrice, naturally) radio maverick and all round frequency-waves captain Iain Lee!A wonderfully wide-ranging discussion between Pip and Iain, covering the whole journey which has led him to where he currently makes his radio home at Talk Radio. From his glorious pseudonym IAIN IN BLACK THUNDER (certainly a strong contender for an Iain bio-pic title) in his old-skool presenting days, all the way through the main stations he's frequented including LBC and Absolute, as well as his time a while back on '11 O' Clock Show', his path has been intense and full of learning curves and hurdles, all of which you shall hear about. How he gets the most from call-in guests and his sixth-sense for when there's more to be gleaned, his 'bedroom' style of broadcasting and how he reached that sleek freestyle... Hosted on Acast.

From those humble beginnings back in his hospital radio volunteering days, to his experiences over at Virgin Radio right up to his immensely popular present day broadcasting, including his self proclaimed nerd origins, school experiences, it's a proper lively and entertaining chat which also gets incredibly open and honest as we...

Welcome, welcome, welcome to this week's Distraction Pieces Podcast, episode 121 at that! A truly powerful episode too, as Pip heads up to the offices of Dignity In Dying to speak with Lloyd and Mick about the charity and all details within...You may have noticed in listening to the Distraction Pieces podcast that there is something of a through-line for the most part. Death. Death comes up frequently, but as you will also have noticed, it is rarely spoken about in a morbid, depressing or negative manner - it is something we ALL have in common, and as such it is a fascinating subject to discuss to get the views of others.Introducing Lloyd, research and policy officer at Dignity In Dying, and Mike, who has strong connections with it through a number of very personal situations which you will hear about. While the stories, the current situations regarding assisted dying in the UK (and worldwide) and indeed the subject itself can prove heavy and intense, this is an ultimately extremely uplifting and...

LOOK ALIVE!Join your - at this point - relatively sober host Scroobius Pip, the estimable Redshift Rebels homie in chief Christopher Glasson and the Whiff Inn governor himself Stu Whiffen on another grand adventure through popular culture ("youth culture" as Stu is keen to highlight) and all things pertinent to the fellas since their last catchup.
