Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!
This week Pip is joined by the legendary DJ and broadcaster JO WHILEY!
You can file this one under "Always on the cards / finally happened", if you're keeping scores. Jo's earned her place in the broadcasting hall of fame without a doubt, having been a rock solid and awesome part of radio history for a minute as well as holding it down on many a festival presenting lineup too. Here's a perfect chance to hear Jo on the other side of the mic as she and Pip catch up over the last couple of decades or more, from humble origins to the present day. Everything including Brighton beginnings and possible alternative career directions, her sisters journey through the pandemic which made for some heavy experiences on all sides (as well as dealings with the government), pivoting and moving from station to station, living in music, festivals, and the luxuries of gardening and nature. An uplifting one for sure, enjoy!

0:33.6 | and I don't think either of us were particularly expecting to, so it kind of went |
0:38.2 | they're unexpected, but I'm forever grateful for my guests for to kind of never fail into just |
0:44.9 | step up and be so open for the listeners really. And then we also get into loads of Joe's career |
