• Failing In Plain Sight (a solo Pip update) #617

  Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip catches you up on what's been developing in his section of the film making world.Saying 'Pip catches you up" is a very broad sweep of an expression actually. If you follow Pip on socials and have been charting the moves in his making of 'Area Of Oustanding Natural Beauty' (the short-turned-long film backed by many on Kickstarter), you'll have seen him opening up in raw, emotional honesty about the decision to shelf the project. Shelf does not mean disappear. But it's a really sad position to be in, as the leader and instigator of the project. The feeling of responsibility, the feeling of letting multiple people down, not to mention the reality of a project not being realised to full potential after so much work being put into it. As well as the co-existing reality of the state of affairs of working class art being almost impossible to make right now.Let's let Pip take the stage on this one though, and you'll also get a moment to hear the Instagram video which caught Pip at the most publically vulnerable stage of what you could call the creative grieving process. We are so used to hearing about the wins. The successes. The 'killing it' mindset. We don't often hear about the projects and ideas which didn't make it. Maybe we can find a way to celebrate them all as one... Join Pip to hear about the journey.PIP'S PATREON PAGE if you're of a supporting natureSPEECH DEVELOPMENT WEBSTOREPIP TWITCH • (music stuff)PIP INSTAGRAMPIP TWITTERPIP PATREONPIP IMDBPOD BIBLE Hosted on Acast.

• Mary J. Blige (What's The 411? / The Umbrella Academy / Queen of Hip Hop Soul) • 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 Mary J. Blige, originally episode 252 from 2019-02-13.Original writeup below:–––––––––––––––––––––––––“…When you give your all, you win…”Absolute solid gold crown wearing greatness for you here, as Pip sits down with the phenomenal Ms. Blige for a thoroughly entertaining and uplifting chat. She’s been making the rounds in promotion of her new starring role as ‘Cha-Cha’ in the amazing ‘The Umbrella Academy’, an adaptation of an equally amazing graphic novel, and she spent some time breaking down the whole experience with Pip in this rare interview. They get to cover a HUGE amount of goodies, ranging from her love of the script and its connections to real life, being educated in how to correctly beat up a person and do a ton of crazy stunts (until things got a touch too insane), the madness of the costumes, her love of learning and growth through roles, how she killed it in a Christmas play as a kid, growing up in the projects and how that didn’t allow much room for dreaming, her non-braggy style and, of course, her illustrious and celebrated music career (including her friendship and career beginnings with a young Notorious BIG!). From music to acting but without ever losing sight or sound of her backgrounds, it’s a heartwarming one here folks as you might expect from a true veteran of the entertainment industry. You’ll love it.PIP'S PATREON PAGE if you're of a supporting natureONLINEXDISCOGRAPHYIMDBPIP TWITCH • (music stuff)PIP INSTAGRAMSPEECH DEVELOPMENT WEBSTOREPIP TWITTERPIP IMDBPOD BIBLE Hosted on Acast.

• Grace Neutral: transcending the tattoo universe with inclusivity and safety (Femme Fatale Tattoo) #616

  Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by GRACE NEUTRAL, founder of FEMME FATALE TATTOO!Of course, as with all intros, it is impossible to sum up Grace by a role or a title. Grace is also a force of energy and natural spring of positivity in the wide world of the tattoo, as you will hear in this in person chat with Pip. Positivity and new ways of thinking aren't always a given though, sometimes these are things that need to happen through experience and ultimately wisdom, all of which Grace has in abundance. Among other subjects including the one that you would indeed expect, Grace and Pip catch up on the joy of dogs and animals, how Grace founded Femme Fatale, the unfortunate side of tattoo work and the humans who contribute to it, humble origins, how misogyny can generate among women in toxic male environments, being a boss and how to do that, surviving abusive relationships in enabling towns, and fostering safe inclusive spaces for those who would benefit. It's fun, it's deep, it's light, and it's heavy. It has it all.PIP'S PATREON PAGE if you're of a supporting natureINSTAGRAMFFTV INSTAGRAMGRACE YOUTUBESTORIES & INKSPEECH DEVELOPMENT WEBSTOREPIP TWITCH • (music stuff)PIP INSTAGRAMPIP TWITTERPIP PATREONPIP IMDBPOD BIBLE Hosted on Acast.

• Alan Moore (Swamp Thing / V For Vendetta / Watchmen) • 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 Alan Moore, originally episode 3 from 2014-10-29.A huge episode in the Distraction Pieces canon, as Pip caught up with Alan - at time of publishing - over a decade ago in Alan's house. It was the early days of the podcast and of course the style and flow of the show was developing, but this was a fabulous sign of things to come and that even when the show was a toddler, it was looking at a mountain of greatness. AND HERE WE ARE! Alan is an immense figure in the world of comic books and writing, and whether or not this is a world in which you dabble, it's a really great one to pick up on if you missed it back then (and if so you are indeed forgiven).
