Summary
Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!
This week Pip takes us on a personal guided tour of not only the frosty badlands of the outside world, but the miracle wonderland that was the year in film of 2025!
Pip saw like 500 movies last year, which is a commendable feat by anyone's standard, so to corale them all into a manageable amount is even more of a hardcore labour of love. But one thing Pip does love is film, so this is not labour - this is total joy and appreciation and celebration of cinema right here. You'll hear a complete runthrough of all of those films (okay not quite 500 - and crucially not a review of each one), as well as the all important top list of what made it through and why. It's always a fun time and can sometimes be a cool reminder of stuff we all meant to watch but didn't get round to, so loads can be gained from the outdoors on location film ramble.
Your keyword for this episode is: ROMP.
Also accepted: CAPER.
Enjoy, and have a wonderful new year everyone!
