Renay Richardson: being an author, double mothering and the podcast multiverse ('Human Resources...' book) #621 1:12:24

21 hours ago1:12:24

1:12:24

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip! This week Pip is joined by a total giant in media and creation, it's RENAY RICHARDSON ! Renay's been hard at work in so many ways and in so many areas of the game, and for such a long time, this is one of those episodes where a choice of lanes must be made, lest the conversation become unweildy and impossible to finish... She's also been a very big piece of the Distraction Pieces puzzle at the very beginning of the road so will always get props for that. This is an ace conversation which, as said, darts around willfully and for everyone's benefit as there's a huge amount to enjoy and get stuck into. Included among the darting is the old chestnut of Zoom recording and contending with that as opposed to the face to face, the many varied methods of becoming a parent and the difficulties for single women to adopt, starting early with instilling lessons in kids, time spent at The BRIT School, critical thinking when it comes to podcasts, and not getting everything from the same place. Saying all this though - high up on the list is the book Renay wrote with Arisa Loomba called ' Human Resources - Slavery and the Making of Modern Britain ' - and best believe that gets a good talking about too. Proper fascinating and very very crucial listening here, get yourself involved.

emocleW, emocleW, emocleW to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip! This is your bonus FRIDAY REWIND episode! Today, we catch up with Ron Perlman , originally episode 262 from 2019-04-10. Original writeup below: ––––––––––––––––––––––––– “…The artform is being preserved by people who are living on the fringes…” Even the post-Friday night spirits of London Town can’t keep Ron down, as he joins Pip outside on a Saturday morning for a wonderful talk on all things film, be it behind the scenes, the acting process or the studio side. Ron has gems galore to offer from a very experienced vantage point in the acting game, having been doing just about the most solid job in the profession since his days in school, and you’ll hear it all in very down to earth and real (occasionally wry and sly) style, from his family’s drumming history, his lucky break auditioning at a young age, being scared away from the stage by the film process, glorious analogies, the lack of ‘foreplay’ in modern viewing, the marvel of modern day TV in every aspect, how ‘The Shield’ gave permission for so much in current TV, Sons Of Anarchy and the finding of is audience as well as navigating tricky relationship terrain in and around it, the perils of one-upmanship on set, the family ties of being in a series so long, the wonder of working with Guillermo Del Toro and how Toro fought his corner for 7 years in getting him the part of Hellboy, egoless collaboration, and - most importantly - was Ron responsible for bringing Bros back together? FIND OUT! A true pleasure. Enjoy this one folks.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip! This week Pip is joined by one of the greats... it's BENICIO DEL TORO ! "I'm a FAN !" proclaims Benicio at various points in this lovely catch up with Pip, and it's so heartening to hear. Not that anyone ever expected him to be anything less than awesome, but this is actually quite a rare appearance from someone evidently beloved by those involved in cinema and those who view the films alike. While a quick Google search will bring up a bunch of films he's been in and you wlll love, you could just do an old fashioned analogue mind search and come up with something equally quick, as everyone will have one. BDT is in town and on the promo trail for the new Wes Anderson joint 'The Phoenician Scheme' in which he plays a major role, but during this episode you'll also hear about that road up to it including everything along the way. How he fit so much into such a short time here we'll never know, but rest assured you'll have a fine time enjoying and discovering his past lives along the actorial path. A real treat, you already KNOW this is gonna be an awesome episode.

Original writeup below: ––––––––––––––––––––––––– A long, long overdue guest on the podcast, as Pip has been pals with Paloma for a good decade or so (their friendship kicked off on the video for ‘ The Beat That My Heart Skipped ’), but it isn’t just mates reminiscing and going over the good old times… It’s a fascinating and honest chat about her humble beginnings and stage antics back in the day, being a number one album selling artist and how un-phased she is by the stardom of it all (which leads into some very open and awesome tangents on fame in general and the weirdness of it all and how it’s not for everyone), a good amount of political chat and how politics needs to evolve, and of course Paloma’s newborn baby child! As stated, it’s open and honest, and generally hugely inspiring and positive - you’ll feel Paloma’s sunny rays all over you long after the podcast is over… PIP'S PATREON PAGE if you're of a supporting nature ONLINE IMDB PIP TWITCH • (music stuff) PIP INSTAGRAM SPEECH DEVELOPMENT WEBSTORE PIP TWITTER PIP IMDB POD BIBLE Hosted on Acast.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip! This week Pip is joined by absolute Irish acting royalty SIMONE KIRBY ! A rare treat here with the wonderful Simone catching up and checking in with Pip, in a celebration of so much of what makes the performances we see what they are. Simone's been putting in work on the stage and screen for a minute, and you will have surely witnessed her greatness in such projects as the ones in the episode title (and a cursory glance on IMDB), but it's always a valuable gift to hear about the life behind the lines. From growing up in County Clare and her origin story, to making it through the ranks of the acting path, as well as what a future in theatre could have looked like, moving to London, working with her husband and child, and an audition concluding with a simple note to tone down the Bond. How about that. Enjoy Simone, and catch up with the shows and projects she's involved in.

emocleW, emocleW, emocleW to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip! This is your bonus FRIDAY REWIND episode! Today, we catch up with Charlie Brooker , originally episode 275 from 2019-06-26. Original writeup below: ––––––––––––––––––––––––– …but don’t by any means think that Black Mirror is a one man show, as Charlie himself will ensure you know how important Annabel Jones is in the whole creative process! He and Pip get all the way into the whole Black Mirror phenomenon, how it works and what it is to be a showrunner, the rise of Black Mirror in the US, how Charlie is the Drake of TV according to Pip (you’ll enjoy this theory), how the auteur theory is bullshit, presenting the show to Netflix, having an exit strategy in a series and how there are less exits in a film as opposed to an episode, Bandersnatch and the three episode season, his older work including Dead Set, Nathan Barley and the various ‘-Wipes, his Screen Burn column and how haters could improve their hater game by reading some of his columns for how to REALLY dis someone… * Production note: Pip had a backup recorder running, and you’ll hear some of this at the start for a minute or so, but after that the audio is straight from the mics.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip! This week Pip is joined by RHYS & EGGSY of GOLDIE LOOKIN CHAIN ! Pip is joined by 2 remaining members of the Newport rap crew whose classic jam "Guns Don't Kill People (Rappers Do)" will surely be in your mind already... If you're unfamiliar, that would be a really good starting place to capture the vibe of these fun loving rap folks. For those of us who were around and present at the time the crew blew up, you'll have a mix of fond and irritating memories (through pure catchiness of said single), but it's all done with tongue in cheek and a good spirit of playfulness. Actually the beat on 'Guns...' is pretty tight tho... So enjoy this three-way chat covering many elements including working in retail, the road to music and fame, how's life in Newport, understanding accents, global success and even a bonus on-air scam call up top! The timing couldn't be more perfect. Have fun with, it's a nice revisit to a time a couple of decades ago, a time which is now on a nostalgia shelf but always worth looking back on.

But enough about that - let's concentrate on episode 98 and be present in the moment shall we... It's Essex's wrestling superstar Mr Will Ospreay! Ever since Pip had a chance meeting outside a Progress Wrestling event at the Electric Ballroom in Camden and then witnessed Will rip it up, it's been a matter of time until the two got together in the podcast ring and got their verbal grapple on and talk pure wrestling goodness, which will be a joy to wrestling and non-wrestling fans alike... A great chat with a very grounded and humble professional, who has made it up the ladder and continues to ascend, all the while keeping himself down to earth while working a DIY job. Career, personal life, goals, lessons learned, Progress, New Japan, and pure positive energy right here - get in!!!

1:02:47

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.

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.

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.

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).

55:30

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip! This is part 4 of an April-long miniseries curated by Pip entitled 'Climate Solutions For Realists'. Our fourth guest is climate activist ROSIE HAMPTON. Hopefully by now, if you've caught all four of the episodes in this miniseries (which will have slotted in seamlessly into your regularly scheduled listening), you'll have heard about how climate action - while not the most uplifting subject - can be a very positive and accessible universe to engage with. At times of course the whole subject can seem intimidating as, for sure, individually we can't solve this one. BUT - when we work together and realise the powers we do have, and work with what we can in the realms of our imediate surroundings first, there is a huge amount to be positive and hopeful for. This episode with Rosie will surely add to that feeling, and among so much more you'll hear how she found herself in this area and how career paths merged and blended, how to work with fossil fuel companies in a way which can make things better for the world in general as well as the employees, the idea of death by a million paper cuts when it comes to greedy and careless corporations, being strategic with movements and working with available skills and potential, the many shades of community action, and how ultimately we all get better through linking in our communities.

Original writeup below! ––––––––––––––––––––––––– “If I was a band I would have split up years ago…” Hopefully you are aware of the fellow and his work, but if that’s not the case, well you have a glorious road ahead of you… Pip sits down with the legendary punk poet to comb through all the good stuff - being the force of nature he is, most of the heavy lifting is done by John himself but as you’ll hear, this is not a problem in the slightest. Just tune in and take a ride with the story telling genius and indulge in those sweet Northern tones. From history to now, it all gets covered - his inspirational teacher who encouraged him in all kinds of ways, cultivating his own style from the cast in his life and picking up little elements from everyone he appreciated, the cerebral of poetry vs the immediate of rock and roll, his love and adoption of American style and trends, aiming to be an ‘artist as professional citizen’, having the door to success opened to him by none other than Bernard Manning of all people, NO FLARES, gigging with The Fall, Chickentown, Arctic Monkeys, Michael Madson, and as you can imagine - AN IMMENSE AMOUNT MORE!
