Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip

All of the welcomes and a very merry Friday to you, and for making it to the end of the week here is a bonus Distraction Pieces Podcast to rock and shock your pre-weekend listening entertainment... It's a LEAP UK exclusive, and their formal introduction into the DISTRACTION PIECES NETWORK! (More on that particular nugget to come in due course...)All shall be made clear in Pip's introduction and indeed, outroduction, but essentially this is a fairly rough and ready recording snatched from a post-Houses Of Parliament appearance from the LEAP collective as they celebrated up in Waterstones in Tottenham Court Road, London! It was a worthwhile recording, as we hear from a number of LEAP affiliates and their experiences and hopes for future change on the whole, and what can be done / is being done toward that. A perfect addition to DPP episode 81 with Jason Reed of LEAP. Enjoy the weekend! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

From his beginnings as a self proclaimed scally out on the streets to his acting school progressions right up to his well earned and crazy great roles in some gigantic cinema smashes like Snatch, Pirates Of The Caribbean, This Is England and starring in the massive Boardwalk Empire as none other than Al Capone.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to episode 86 of the Distraction Pieces Podcast, a special with Housing For Women and guest Mira!Pip breaks down the full process of what it took to get to the interview/chat stage with guest Mira in the intro (including the discussions with Comic Relief/Sport Relief and Housing For Women), which will prime you perfectly for what follows. And indeed, what follows from guest Mira is awfully hard to take in but a truly valuable, and an ultimately inspiring tale of what can happen after being swept up in a wave of unfairness, abuse, incredible mistreatment and a web of terrible people. Heavy, unflinchingly honest and very upfront, but a story that might have otherwise gone unheard - and Mira is a wonderful, positive person to share a Distraction Pieces Podcast with. A truly encouraging story which shows how much projects like Housing For Women's 'Re-Place' initiative can help lives be rebuilt and restructured.Thank you to Comic Relief and Sport Relief, Housing For Women and the...
