Summary
Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!
This week Pip is joined by RHYS & EGGSY of GOLDIE LOOKIN CHAIN!
Pip is joined by 2 remaining members of the Newport rap crew whose classic jam "Guns Don't Kill People (Rappers Do)" will surely be in your mind already... If you're unfamiliar, that would be a really good starting place to capture the vibe of these fun loving rap folks. For those of us who were around and present at the time the crew blew up, you'll have a mix of fond and irritating memories (through pure catchiness of said single), but it's all done with tongue in cheek and a good spirit of playfulness. Actually the beat on 'Guns...' is pretty tight tho... So enjoy this three-way chat covering many elements including working in retail, the road to music and fame, how's life in Newport, understanding accents, global success and even a bonus on-air scam call up top! The timing couldn't be more perfect. Have fun with, it's a nice revisit to a time a couple of decades ago, a time which is now on a nostalgia shelf but always worth looking back on.

| 0:38.7 | and they fancied coming on and having a chat. And I instantly said, yeah, man, let's have a chat. |
| 0:43.8 | I almost drove to Newport to chat with them. But because of my schedule, I would have had to do it |
| 0:50.6 | all in one day after getting back from an acting gig and going off on another thing |
| 0:56.5 | the next day and that just felt a bit insane. So I decided against it. But we jumped on |

| 1:27.0 | Or you could just |
| 1:27.5 | grab the bits you've you've maybe missed or stuff that you've maybe heard me mentioned, but never |
| 1:33.0 | listened to. Or you can buy a load of CDs to turn into coasters, Christmas tree decorations, |

| 1:43.9 | things. |
