Naturally there is some good Ricky Gervais talk ('Derek' and so much more), UK comedy science as we hear from David and how Brian Gittins happened, and of course their new combined project 'Rovers'! So much. A full on entertainment showdown.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip! This week Pip is joined by the legendary actor and director ALEX WINTER! As you will of course know, Alex was Keanu's co-star in the Bill & Ted series which is something he does not shy away from, but there is a whole lifetime of being a fully rounded person since then. As you will hear here, he is all about the work but more importantly all about the human side of life and being a person first. From his UK history, to directing and all sorts of process-based goodies, to reuniting with Keanu for Waiting For Godot, to what the future holds, Alex is a very interesting dude which - if you didn't already know - you will find out without shadow of doubt throughout this awesome episode.

PROFESSOR GREEN (rap / TV & film / mental health advocacy) • Friday Rewind

emocleW, emocleW, emocleW to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip! This is your bonus FRIDAY REWIND episode! Today, we catch up with Professor Green, originally episode 223 from 2018-08-15. Original writeup below: As always with the Distraction Pieces Podcast, the chat does most definitely NOT focus on the main aspect you might be expecting, but covers a crazy amount of ground in the time the two have. And what a range on offer… Mr Green is clearly suffering from the after effects of some good time fun (with mate Example) the previous night but comes through it in fine form, leaping from topic to topic with ease, including how hard it must be to be a horrible bastard, the current state of society, news overload, the loss of hands-on skills, his insane experiences in solitary (for documentary reasons), dealing with the stress and fear of negative emotions, feeling the feels and not using crutches, troubled past, how folk can become comfortable and not take part in society, the greater subject of dogs and his own documentary work on what are considered difficult breeds, education, role models, Brexit, his touring days with Lily Allen and the difference in live music these days. All with tons in between of course. So dig deep and enjoy this in depth chat with Professor Green!

IAIN LEE • a life working in and coping with the media (Impostor Syndrome / The Living Room Tour / 11 O' Clock Show) #674

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip! This week Pip is joined by host, presenter and returning guest IAIN LEE! Iain is a welcome, familiar face to a lot of us - someone who's been involved with some really great things, and it's a great chance to catch up and check in on where life's been leading him for the past handful of years (or more fairly, where's he's been directing his life. Truly it hasn't been an easy journey, with various dependancies and relapses on the table, but the 2026 Iain is congniscant of how these situations came into play and is able to trace the path. But there have been some awesome stops on the journey too, in finding love via a long term working relationship, and navigating an incredibly heavy and tense live radio situation resulting in a life-saving triangulation of listeners. Included in the chat of course are re-evaluations of the past and past works, I'm A Celeb, humiliation vs humility, figuring out a live show in your living room, and confronting the end of level conscience boss that is the fact that one might be as good as one hoped to be. So a lot going on, clearly...! Get listening. PIP'S PATREON PAGE if you're of a supporting nature IAIN LEE (all links here!)

STEPHEN FRY (thou shalt not question Stephen Fry) • Friday Rewind

emocleW, emocleW, emocleW to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip! This is your bonus FRIDAY REWIND episode! Today, we catch up with Stephen Fry, originally episode 440 from 2022-05-02. Original writeup below: 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. PIP'S PATREON PAGE if you're of a supporting nature ALL STEPHEN LINKS HERE!

Jonny Lee Miller - Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip #178

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip! Episode 178 is standing outside your door this minute, so exercise politeness and cordiality and let it in won't ya - it's a goody this week, as Pip is joined by mighty acting talent Jonny Lee Miller! Undoubtedly you will know Jonny from the film which basically everyone must have seen by now (I mean if you were at an age suitable for the 18 rating) Trainspotting - and if not then good god fix that up already... He played the standout character 'Sickboy', and went onto revisit the character a couple of decades later in T2. These were naturally not the bookends of his career, as you will hear in this full on sprawling conversation - you'll get the inside scoop on his very early days, where he effectively bypassed the conventional acting route and did things in his own way, his Kingston Upon Thames (bigups!) days, his old skool days doing the UK actor thing by starring in The Bill, Eastenders and all the classics, and his giant leaps from the UK to the US, and LA to NY, from squandering roles after Trainspotting but clawing back a glorious career and ultimately starring as Sherlock Holmes in the huge US series Elementary - AND starring as Sherlock more than anyone else ever! Power moves from Jonny - get involved and brush up on your Jonny Lee Miller trivia! Huge. Enjoy! ––––– ––––– ––––– This episode's links: • JONNY LEE MILLER on TWITTER! • JONNY LEE MILLER on INSTAGRAM! • TRAINSPOTTING! • T2! • ELEMENTARY! • SCROOBIUS PIP on TWITTER! • SCROOBIUS PIP on INSTAGRAM! • SPEECH DEVELOPMENT RECORDS • DISTRACTION PIECES NETWORK on FACEBOOK • DISTRACTION PIECES NETWORK on INSTAGRAM • NEW LISTENERS TAKE NOTE!!!
