End Of Year Review [Part 5] - Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip #78 Jan 06, 2016

Show notes

Welcome, welcome, welcome to episode 78 of the battered, bruised and all disheveled Distraction Pieces podcast! Welcome aboard to 2016!Same crew (Chris of Redshift Rebels, Stu of Pink Toothbrush/We.Are.Lizards and the Pip the boss), different year - this is the final instalment of the roundup of 2015, and since the booze intake has been steady throughout all five episodes, you can expect some good back and forths and fancy footwork as standard! Actually it's not quite as sloppy as you may imagine. A good share of previous Distraction Pieces episode recommendations, some good old fashioned reminiscing on the awesome and awful, and a very much more detailed Pip-solo disclaimer at the start which almost serves as its own podcast. Heavy stuff. Let us start as we mean to most certainly not go on! A new year salute to all, and thank you as ever for your support and ears - much love from the Distraction Pieces Podcast!

(Misophonia warning for the first 20 minutes or so...)
