Welcome, welcome, welcome to episode ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY EIGHT of the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip! Another heavyweight acting classic right here for your immediate attention, as Pip is joined by the star of one of his favourite films (Lady Macbeth) and the upcoming Fighting With My Family - it’s Florence Pugh!
A powerful conversation, full of energy and positivity and just pure satisfying goodness for your podcast enjoyment, as Pip and Florence get right down to it and cover everything from said favourite film Lady Macbeth (surely you’ve seen that by now and if not, amend that!), the subtle differences behind the scenes of indie and blockbuster films and merits of the former, the backlog of projects and the weirdness of doing promo several years after, her attitude towards nudity in film roles and how the media handles it versus how she handles it, her upcoming role as Paige in Fighting With My Family and the insane logistics of that, the dichotomy of murder on screen and nudity on screen and how it seems society in general is far more comfortable seeing violence, the female perspective as a director as opposed the male gaze, growing up in a loud family and her acting history and last but certainly not least, a pitch from she and Pip for a combined role in Peaky Blinders. How can they lose? One’s thing’s for sure - you won’t, so get yourself comfy and listen in won’t you!
AND VOTE FOR FLORENCE IN THE EE RISING STAR AWARDS!!!

Vicky McClure - Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip #187
Welcome, welcome, welcome to Dr Dre and Snoop Dogg's favourite episode of the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip, episode 187 – a handful of words into the intro and already the rap gawds are being referenced... Whatever the number, this is a grand one right here as Pip is joined by one of the UK's finest, the Bafta winning queen Vicky McClure!
Surely you will have seen Vicky's acting greatness on the big and small screen, having a HUGE part to play in the filmography of the legend Shane Meadows in films such as A Room For Romeo Brass, This Is England and the series of which the film spawned (as ‘Lol’), but if not you will most definitely be catching up after this chat with Pip, as she goes all the way into the archives, back to her days in the acting workshop where she honed her craft and improvisational skills (which would be vital in her later roles), Nottingham days, her very realistic and sobering view on her own acting profession which is very refreshing to hear, a TON of fascinating behind the scenes science on the Meadows method and the deep connection between director, cast, and overall end product, and her own collaboration with fashion label Finery. An all round podcast of pure perfection, so set aside some time and enjoy every moment. You shall.

Don Letts - Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip #189
Welcome, welcome, welcome to episode one hundred and eighty nine of the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip! A grandslam punky reggae party of an episode at that, as Pip is joined by straight up legendary film-maker / deejay / selector / presenter DON LETTS!
For Don, everything he does goes under the broad umbrella of sound and vision, with a huge amount of projects and collaborations to be considered as such, from his own Super 8 films back in the day to directing music videos for a crazy amount of musical heroes from Elvis Costello to Big Audio Dynamite to The Clash to Bob Marley to name a handful... A LOT to talk about between Pip and Don of course, from his experiences being “first generation British born black”, to finding his footing in the directing game and how it started, his artistic interests and slants, politics and diversity in the UK, culture and the greater arts world, having his mind blown and personality altered after seeing Bob Marley and then becoming an acquaintance of his, running a shop in Kings Road and the all encompassing power of bass... Immensely satisfying and entertaining chat goodness to be had so just dive in and enjoy!
