Summary
Welcome, welcome, welcome to EPISODE 315 of the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip! This week Pip is joined by the pure marvellous actor and delight NIAMH ALGAR!
You can tell even like 5 minutes in that Pip was proper excited about this one… And naturally he was right to be, as Niamh is fantastic if you didn’t already know! You may have seen her in the beautiful and powerful ‘The Virtues’ alongside Distraction Pieces spiritual godfather Stephen Graham, and if you did you will adore this chat as Niamh goes IN on the whole process. As always, any Shane Meadows talk is fascinating and this time is no exception, as we get the pure goodness and intrigue from the process of making such a show and the deep personal digging involved in Niamh’s transformation into Dinah. Not only that, there’s further confirmation of that ‘being the lead in your own story’ point that comes up here and there on the podcast, and some good chat about her role in Desiree Akhavan’s ‘The Bisexual’, working with Guy Ritchie and OF COURSE a good amount about her upcoming film ‘Calm With Horses’, alongside Barry Keoghan and Cosmo Jarvis. Full on gold. Enjoy.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome, welcome, welcome. This is the distraction pieces podcast episode 315 and I am very excited to have sat down with |
| 0:08.4 | Neve Algar this week. We recorded this a couple of weeks back. There's a film coming out March 13th called |
| 0:17.9 | Calm with Halses and it's already in my films of the year list. Just the cast already is the cast |
| 0:24.7 | before I'd seen it was a who's who of people I'm a fan of. Neve, be one of them, |
| 0:31.2 | previous guests, Barry Kjogen, being another and next week's guest, Cosmo Jarvis, being another. Now Cosmo |
| 0:38.8 | I've raved about in other episodes. I loved him in the late, I loved him in Pekip Lenders and he's |
| 0:45.1 | amazing in this. So I mean it's also worth mentioning. Obviously I've recorded two podcasts with two |
| 0:51.7 | people who are in the same film. So I don't think there's tons of repetition between this week and |
| 0:59.3 | next week but there's probably going to be one or two bits where I'm going and what I loved about |
| 1:03.9 | the film was this or whatever else because you know I don't listen back to these things. They are |
| 1:10.1 | conversations. I get excited. You'll hear loads of times I get excited with Neve here and you'll see |
| 1:17.1 | from you will have seen from the Polaroid we were incredibly excited after our chat. I do the |
| 1:22.5 | Polaroid pictures at the end of the chat and it was one of my favorites as said it's always |
| 1:26.9 | nerve-wracking when it's someone that you've not met before but you've got mad respect for and |
| 1:32.2 | you're a big fan of and then you sit down and they're just really easy to talk to and just a good |
| 1:39.3 | a good human doing good shit. So yeah I was really excited about that and I really enjoyed that. |
| 1:45.7 | We talk about all sorts of stuff. The virtues come with horses, the bisexual, things to come, |
| 1:53.3 | a few people that come up in conversation. Steven Graham has been on the podcast twice to go back |
| 1:59.2 | and grab that if you fancy it. As I mentioned Barry Keogan, he's been on before. Who else do we |
| 2:06.6 | mention? We mentioned Desrayak Kavan, previous guest. We mentioned Michael Smiley, that was an |
| 2:13.3 | early guest. He's great. Yeah, tons of good people. So let's jump into this. As said the main point |
| 2:21.0 | is that Kavan with horses is out incredibly soon and I really recommend you catch it in the |
