TEAM 3W... The time has come... Welcome welcome welcome to episode 158 of the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip, which happens to be the long awaited DESTINY 2 special! A huge amount of professional gaming goodness right here, as Pip focuses them lazers solely on the forthcoming DESTINY 2 from Activision. A major event in gaming circles, pro and casual alike, and Pip heads out to Los Angeles to attend the D2 launch event and get some pure golden nuggets from Eric Osborne (Bungie), Arekkz (heavyweight gamer) and Sam White (gaming journalist), while first being primed fully by Dan Le Sac (now Twitch full timer) on what to expect, what came before and the joy of the Destiny world. A comprehensive, in depth and thoroughly enjoyable session dedicated to Destiny 2, with four full on chats to sooth your Destiny 2-hungry soul... ••• DAN LE SAC on TWITCH! – https://www.twitch.tv/danlesac_idiot ••• ERIC OSBORNE on TWITTER! – https://twitter.com/UrkMcGurk ••• AREKKZ gaming channel! – https://www.youtube.co

Team 3W where you at? Three welcomes delivered to your doorstep as ever, as we straighten out the doormat and hoover the hallway to this week's Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip - it's episode 157! A heavy one at that, and certainly one that will hit home with a good few of you, or shine a light on some parts of the armed forces that perhaps you may not have been familiar with previously. Here to deliver such science is Wayne Sharrocks - film maker, public speaker and campaigner, but more importantly, he served in the British Army for a good seven years or so, and is therefore more than qualified to deliver the insider perspective on the armed forces and process of becoming a soldier from start to end. A big subject to tackle, an emotive and provocative one too, and Wayne and Pip don't mess around with this - it's a honest and frank discussion which hits upon the whole sphere of national defence, ranging from the reasons why one might sign up, the age of new recruits (and why currently that may n

Welcome, Welcome, Welcome to YOU - and three times welcomed you are to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip, episode 156 at that! A proper filfy drum n' bass banger right here this week too as Pip is joined FINALLY after a long bout of scheduling and planning by the one and only, the Metalhead himself, the UK's national drum & bass treasure - Goldie! "The barbarians from within will raise their heads and rise the deities..." ...and that's one single quote from this absolutely ram packed and intense juggernaught rollercoaster of an episode, as Pip white-knuckles the railing and hold on for dear life as the whirlwind rolls through town and demolishes all in its path! The whirlwind being Goldie, that is. I'm sure you gathered that. Finding his home out in Phuket these days, the path has been rocky, full on, winding and incredible and Goldie has lived through it all - the raves, the graf days out in the Bronx, early days of techno, being a household name in what they used to call 'intelligent dr

Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back to PART 2 of episode 155 of DPP (as we can call it now since you're all familiar from part 1) with Scroobius Pip! How great was part 1 eh? Well find that comfortable spot with your nominated listening apparatus from a few hours ago and prepare to be doubly satisfied as you enjoy the second part with CHRISTOPHER FAIRBANK! So much goodness, as Christopher gets deep into the acting science with past and previous, and rounds up this episode with some phenomenal tales from the sets of the original Tim Burton 'Batman' and David Fincher's 'Alien 3'... Those anecdotes alone could well make their own episodes, some crazy business by the sounds of things! Absolute madness. Besides that, there's a ton more to uncover, with personal philosophies, morals, experiences, lessons, so much to ensure that you keep checking for Christopher's work from here on out and back into the past. Amazing stuff from a true stage and screen veteran. Enjoy, again! ••••• AUF WIEDERSEHEN PET on TWITTE

Welcome, welcome, welcome to episode 155 of the fresh, fly, wild and bold DISTRACTION PIECES PODCAST with Scroobius Pip! Hopefully you have found a comfortable spot and your phone is fully charged, or at least at like 35% minimum or thereabouts (or your iPod or however you go about your business), and you are ready for a grand double part dose of goodness as Pip is joined by acting heavyweight Christopher Fairbank! With a rich and varied career in front of the camera, Clavering's own Christopher obviously has a ton of tales to share and good lord you're gonna get some here... He and Pip find time to sit down and "set the chat among the pigeons" (word to Alan Partridge) and get down and dirty in the earlier years of Christopher's life. While he has many a tale to tell about the acting side of things, you'll love his rundown of his early life and growing up - a full on cinematic narrative in itself, combining boarding schools, smoking at an insanely early age, discovering acting instincts on stage through... &

Welcome welcome welcome to your 154th episode of the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip! And that is an actual factual statement as Pip has been on each and every one, without fail, sometimes more than once a week at that. So it's actually MORE than 154 really... But anyway - let's get down to business. Another wonderful actor-based chat this week as Pip sits down with one of Liverpool's finest Mr NEIL FITZMAURICE, actor, comedian, writer and more! Neil and Pip find themselves working alongside one another currently on a new film called 'Walk Like A Panther' (which has been announced so this can be referred to by name!), and make use of the canteen on-set to have a full on, broad-ranging and hugely entertaining discussion covering the whole lot - politics and the current electoral situation, the Hillsborough tragedy which hit Neil very personally and comprehensively in a number of ways, his upbringing and early life where his playwright seeds were sewn, right up to his acting career which found...

Welcome. Welcome. And you know what? You've earned it. Welcome. Now we're done with the formalities, consider yourself appropriately welcomed to your ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY THIRD episode of the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip! One fiddy three. Imagine that. In a drastic change to last week's solo spoken word episode, Pip has some real life company this week, and as such this is a truly golden episode - ladies and gentlemen, please enjoy the shining ray of light that is Sofia Boutella! One of those incredibly inspirational episodes where the conversation really drives through some lovely terrain, and you'll enjoy where this journey takes you for real. Sofia is currently all over the place (as Pip witnessed via the medium of the good old American billboard) with her new blockbuster 'The Mummy' on release (co-starring some fella whose first name is Tom, that's all the info we have at this point), but you may well know her from her varied work in 'Star Trek', 'Kingsman', and killing it in an...

Welcome, welcome, welcome to episode 152 of the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip! In a slight alteration to the usual proceedings to which we have all become so accustomed, the guest this week is SCROOBIUS PIP his goddamn self! Working with the formula of such Speech Development Records releases such as 'At Home With Polar' (Polarbear) or 'At Home With Rob' (Rob Auton), Pip sat down in his temporary residence up in Los Angeles and recorded a selection of his poems read from his book 'Poetry In (e)Motion', the graphic poetry novel released all the way back in 2010. Pip's been crazy busy with all manner of podcast and acting related activity of late, over the past couple of years in fact, so this is a very cool opportunity to sit in with your host and indulge in some non 'Ask Pip' episode company for a change! No spoilers as to what you'll be treated to here, but it's a fantastic episode and a different one to usual. It's a goody for the original Dan Le Sac vs Scroobius Pip heads, the solo Pip...

Welcome welcome welcome to episode 151 of the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip! Very happy to have you aboard. This week is a straight up New Yorican banger, as Pip is joined by the infamous, the notorious, the Fun Lovin' Criminal himself Mister Huey Morgan! A long awaited one right here, as Pip has forged a friendship with Huey over the years so a chat was always on the cards between these two. From his days misbehaving in New York back in the day (now currently causing havoc in Somerset!), to joining the Marines and channeling his inner aggression into more positive areas, to bartending and setting up a band which would later lead to an illustrious music career, all peppered with real life madness - living through 9/11, a standoff with a Hanson member (and close relation), and that appearance on Never Mind The Buzzcocks. Huey is a powerful presence in the music industry and whether you've been down since Fun Lovin' Criminals or picked up on him through his 6 Music show, you'll get a lot out...

WELCOME WELCOME WELCOME to the 150th episode of the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip! One hundred and fifty episodes. Madness. And in those 150 the podcast has managed to casually accumulate NINE MILLION DOWNLOADS! That's 60,000 downloads per episodes including this one, if you were to break it down into cold hard mathematics. Thanks so kindly to all of you DPP heads and original TEAM 3W fam for all you do! And by way of thanks - enjoy this marvelous episode of golf talk with the long awaited guest ANDREW 'BEEF' JOHNSTON! He didn't receive the nickname from a love of beef, or for that matter for having beef with anyone (as you'll hear, it's hard to imagine him having beef with anyone in the world), but from - ahh, you'll have to hear for yourself now won't ya... A lovely chat from a truly loveable character who you may know, and of course may not - either way, as with the Distraction Pieces code, its not about the popularity in the grand media scheme of things, but what kind of interview Pip...

WELCOME WELCOME WELCOME to your weekly Distraction Pieces podcast with Scroobius Pip, and here is your fifth opportunity to sit down with the man himself and indulge in pure undiluted one-on-one Pip goodness! THIS IS PART 2! Much more wonder and merriment to round off your double dose of good time rapping with the gawd Piplo, as he covers some more ground including more UFC, beard talk, a nice snippet from his old show on XFM, acting game, and a question which leads the podcast in a very moving and pretty heart-wrenching direction. It's powerful stuff, things get emotional, but it's all part of the up close and personal nature of listening to unrestricted long-form talk in your ears like this. You'll always get the full picture with Distraction Pieces, all the elements - and this contains just that. Come aboard and enjoy, we have a real good one here ladies and gentlemen. ••••• SCROOBIUS PIP on TWITTER! – https://twitter.com/Scroobiuspipyo ••••• SCROOBIUS PIP on INSTAGRAM! –...  See acast.com/priv

WELCOME WELCOME WELCOME to your weekly Distraction Pieces podcast with Scroobius Pip, and here is your fifth opportunity to sit down with the man himself and indulge in pure undiluted one-on-one Pip goodness! Tearing through questions solicited through his Facebook page, live and direct from the Pip fortress of solitude, it's a grand goody right here as he breaks down all elements of the Scroobius Pip machine - beards, UFC, podcasting in general, friends, career, acting, philosophy, lifestyle, love, ah just about everything you can think of...

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... &#

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...

Welcome welcome welcome and CONGRATULATIONS - you made it to Level Three of the seventh DrunkCast. 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.

Welcome welcome welcome to your second DrunkCast of this week's three parter! 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. Lots of recommendations here - some you will DEFINITELY know but some you may not - not everyone has heard of La La Land now have they... No that doesn't seem true at all... Whatever the case - lots of fun, go ahead and enjoy! •••••••••• CHRIS GLASSON - https://twitter.com/redshiftrebels •••••••••• STU WHIFFEN - https://twitter.com/stuwhiffen •••••••••• SCROOBIUS PIP - https://twitter.com/Scroobiuspipyo •••••••••• SPEECH DEVELOPMENT RECORDS - https://scroobiuspip.backstreetmerch.com •••••••••• HARDCORE LISTING PODCAST - https://www.acast.com/hardcorelisting •••••••••• FOLLOW AND ENJOY!  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-

WELCOME WELCOME WELCOME - NO TIME TO EXPLAIN! It's the SEVENTH edition of the Distraction Pieces DrunkCast! You know what it is... Scroobius Pip is joined by Drunkateers Stu Whiffen and Chris Glasson at the Whiff Inn for another few rounds of gossip, goodness, glasses of all kinds of booze and the usual loudmouf banter you have come to enjoy and demand! Since the last time we joined the crew, Chris and Stu have become professional seasoned podcasters haven't they! You may have heard their 'Hardcore Listing' podcast by now, but here are some behind the scenes nuggets from the two and their inspirations, guests to come and what it all involves. Also a nice breakdown of the last WeAreLizards clubnight and a bunch of TV and film chatter.

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.
