Summary
Welcome, welcome, welcome to episode 232 of the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip! A full on entertaining and thoroughly interesting catch up here with the multi-disciplined and outrageously talented musician JOSH WELLER!
You may well have caught Josh on brother/sister podcasts Hardcore Listings and Off The Beat And Track, and if so that will have only endeared you to the fella all the more. Here Pip sits down with him for a good amount of time in a pub basement to chat about so many things, branching out and going on all tangents but including some good background and chat about his band The Kenneths, being part of the scene Pip in which used to be a firm fixture, his global heritage, an ace little aside regarding the Sultan Of Bruneii of all people (and some very strong yacht names which you can feel free to copy - maybe for cars, bikes, anyway you’ll see), some powerful insights on white privilege and how it can be so ingrained and deep seated, a fantastic Spotify breakdown (takedown?) and some good honest truths about the company, the advantage of honing his stagecraft and not blowing up too soon without experience, his brushes with co-writes and exactly what they are, his unending love of The Descendants, crazy times at the Warped Tour and his VERY SPECIAL SECRET ANNOUNCEMENT which is all very exciting… Enjoy - it’s a great one!

| 0:00.0 | This is a paid advertisement from Better Help. I've got a really clear memory when I first got a |
| 0:06.6 | dog of being really focused on how important all the things I have to do for this cute little guy |
| 0:13.6 | are. Like I need to make sure he's getting walks every day, fresh air every day, fresh water every |
| 0:21.1 | day, eating good food. And it becomes such a kind of a focus and a drive because you want to do all |
| 0:28.0 | you can for this little creature that you love. But we don't always put that much time and |
| 0:32.8 | attention into what we need for ourselves. Like what are our basic requirements to get through |
| 0:40.6 | life. And we need to focus on that more and Better Help can help with that. With over a thousand |
| 0:46.2 | therapists in the UK already, they can provide access to mental health professionals with a wide |
| 0:51.5 | variety of expertise in mental health. As far as I know, they've not got any that can help dogs, |
| 0:57.8 | but again, as long as you're dealing with that, then they can help you deal with you as well. |
| 1:03.0 | Alistair's get 10% off their first month at BetterHelp.com slash distraction pod. That's better |
| 1:09.5 | B-E-T-T-E-R-H-E-L-P.com slash distraction pod. Welcome, welcome, welcome. This is the distraction |
| 1:18.6 | pieces podcast episode 232. And I'm joined this beat, this beat. I've got a beat, there's no |
| 1:25.6 | beat. I'm joined this week by Josh Weller, who's fantastic. He's been a mate of mine for years. |
| 1:31.4 | I've known him for ages. I mean, we talk about it all in the podcast. I won't go into it in great |
| 1:36.3 | detail, but I heard him recently on the hardcore listing podcast and then on off the beaten track |
| 1:41.7 | podcast. And on both of them, he was just so entertaining and articulate, but also funny, irreverent, |
| 1:51.0 | but also a good lad and I thought, I'd be meaning to have him on for ages. I need to pull my finger out. |
| 1:57.7 | So I did exactly that. Before we get into it, oh, there's a big announcement on this. He's kind of, |
| 2:04.0 | he's hinted details of it on social media, but this is the big announcement. So that's exciting too. |
| 2:10.7 | I'm sorry if I sound distracted, but I'm recorded this on Friday and I'm sat on my bed |
| 2:16.8 | and the TV's on in the background and I left it on as I was getting my kit to record and I wasn't |
