Summary
Welcome, welcome, welcome to episode 295 of the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip! Pure broadcasting brilliance for you this week, as Pip is joined by TV and radio presenter and all round delight FEARNE COTTON!
This is the mirror side of a two podcast deal the two of them struck up, where Pip appeared on her ‘Happy Place’ podcast, so as you’ll witness, the driver is often interchangeable, but it’s all perfect as they get on just grand. Maybe it’s because they were born a month apart and have the same cultural touchstones - WHO KNOWS! Whatever the case, it’s a breeze of a podcast which touches on so much including a sentence which features Hanson and Led Zeppelin in the same breath (in fact I think it could be called an “Mmm Bop-cast” but that’s of no consequence), her intro into different kinds of music, being mates with Sarah Cawood and how she eventually got into gig going through her, Coldplay haters, the power of music shared on a mass scale, cathartic crying sessions, early days of her presenting on TV and growing up in front of the camera, presenting the Disney Club, still being treated as a kid in adult life, the old fashioned kid poop story which serves as a grounding device, how being a cool parent isn’t possible, her book ‘Happy’, losing her sense of self in her 20’s and regaining it later, social media, podcast therapy, changing one’s self in the midst of crisis and her work with CoppaFeel. But of course, SO much more. Lovely stuff from start to end. ENJOY!

| 0:00.0 | Welcome, welcome, welcome. This is the distraction pieces podcast episode 295. |
| 0:05.6 | How you're doing guys? Thank you for tuning in. This week's guest is the wonderful |
| 0:12.5 | Fern Cotton. We had such a good chat. It's the first time we'd really met properly, |
| 0:18.3 | properly. And genuinely I feel like we've come away as as real life powers instead of |
| 0:25.6 | the same happened with Connie Huck. We can kind of hang out for a bit. In fact, the same |
| 0:30.7 | happening that we both did each other's podcasts. I guess did on on Fern's amazing happy place |
| 0:37.6 | podcast. And that's going to be out in November in in the new series that starts then. |
| 0:43.3 | And we did back to back. We we recorded happy place first. So it's weird that you get in this |
| 0:48.3 | second, but I kind of like that to mix it up. And then we did distraction pieces. And again, |
| 0:55.0 | we could have chated for hours. We recorded it at the wonderful Soho Radio's new podcast studios. |
| 1:01.2 | So shout out to them. Yeah. And it was a lovely chat. And we've had a few chats since then. |
| 1:10.0 | After our conversation, I can't remember if it was stuff we talked about on this one or |
| 1:15.0 | happy place. Fern spoke to a mama, believe it about aggrandad's |
| 1:22.4 | stammer. Obviously, that leads me to last week's stammer special. I know I mentioned it |
| 1:29.6 | on the Daisy Haggard podcast, but the love I got for that special was amazing. And thank you |
| 1:36.0 | so much to everyone engaged in International Stammer Awareness Day. I did a take over |
| 1:41.6 | at the on the stammer UK Instagram that's at STAMM, M-A-U-K. You can see the answers I did on |
| 1:51.4 | in their story. We've, I believe it was saved as a highlight. So if you want to go and look at |
| 1:56.5 | that, it also included some pictures of me at school. Picture of me with Tom Hardy in a little |
| 2:03.1 | story about a trip that we went on a road trip that we had. And a few other things. So yeah, |
| 2:08.0 | go over to stammer UK and follow them. That would be great. STAMM, M-A. But yeah, that special |
| 2:14.3 | was amazing. The three people who shared their story, George Owen and Natalie, it was, yeah, |
