Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!
This week Pip is joined, at long last, by national treasure STEPHEN FRY!
Simply using the term ‘national treasure’ doesn’t do any kind of justice whatsoever to who or what Stephen is, does and has done, of course. But it’s pretty tough to dispute. Long term (and casual) Pip listeners will already know the line ‘Thou shalt not question Stephen Fry’ - well, Pip breaks the holy rap commandment and does just that, and it’s a joy to behold. Naturally there’s only so many tips of icebergs one can introduce in an hour, but rest assured that you get the full Pip and Fry experience including pandemic times, social media, Greeks and Romans and history as a whole, tattoos, religion, politics - it’s like if you had a dinner party with him but condensed into a lunch break. So enjoy this hang time with Stephen and let’s hope that it only leads to more! Enjoy.

This week Pip is joined by comic, writer, actor and podcaster BETH GRANVILLE!
In a kind of mirror-type episode of Wednesday with Lucy Pinder, this is Lucy's podcasting pal from the Smashing Sundays podcast who now has the spotlight fixed firmly on her for an episode! Beth is incredibly busy, as you will surely deduce by the end of this, but busy in a reassuringly comfortable way. With so many projects on the go and in the archives, it's fascinating to hear how it all comes together, as well as the origin story of it all. A good chunk of that takes place in Wales, where we currently find her, and leads on from there including all the writing, concepts, projects, series, gigs, everything else included. So enjoy this deep dive with Beth Granville, the perfect way to zip up the week and prepare for a perfect Sunday with her and Lucy! Enjoy.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!
This week Pip is joined by writer, actor and singer/songwriter NICÔLE LECKY!
A wonderful chat with Nicôle who has been putting in WORK for a long while now, and a chance to hear about said work including the run up to doing what she does and how those early seeds started growing. Not only that, we get to hear about her own process, the not very diverse world of drama back in the day, her musical early days, her show Mood of course, curating a team, the world of sex work, being in Sense8 and working with the Wachowskis, from stage to screen, her cringe barometer and so much more. Amazing stuff and pure inspirational - you shall enjoy.
