Summary
Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!
This week Pip is joined by long term groupmate and music making legend DAN LE SAC!
Together of course, they form Dan Le Sac Vs Scroobius Pip though - a duo name of which you will be abundantly familiar. To celebrate the release of their 'Live In Places' live recordings compendium and physical release, Dan and Pip met up in physical form to talk about all things past, present and future in equal balance. It's not a stream of "Do you remember that time..." either, it goes way beyond that but expect some expert tangent taking though! So much life has happened since they got together to make their first releases, and since locking in on their individual paths, there have been huge departures from as well as continuations into what came before. It's lovely that all is amicable and supportive and while, as said in the episode title to quote Uncle LL Cool J, it is not a comeback (they been here for years), it is a reunion of sorts and a truly delightful one at that. Enjoy these two in conversation and go cop that live album too, what are you doing?! Get it!

| 1:03.5 | This is the distraction pieces podcast episode 633. And who's this? I'm joined today by Mr. Dan Lassack. We've got a little Dan Lassack versus Scroobius Pit reunion on. And the reason for that is, some of you will already know, but out now, or we're now in the two-week pre-order period, or order period, in fact, of this weird little cute release that we've done. |
| 1:07.5 | You might know we did a live album recently called Live in Places. |
| 1:14.3 | Well, to accompany that, we've made a fanzine, a 32-page fanzine with a cover-mounted cassette tape of the album. And the fanzine is made up of all kind of, like we get into it in the |
| 1:19.8 | episode, but to be honest, we also get distracted a lot. So it's important. I plug it at the start. |

| 1:58.7 | is the 6th of the September is the anniversary of our last ever gig, at best of all, 11 years ago. So, yeah, how exciting is that? |
| 2:08.7 | And that's what we're here to talk about. But we're here to talk about loads of things, |
