Season Fifteen: Best of Guests

Season Fifteen: Best of Drew & Sam

Season Fifteen – Best of Drew & Sam      So for the final time this season, we join the boys as they round off Drewling Samantics Season Fifteen by presenting us with their favourite moments from the past 3 and a half months.    As usual they have spread their net wide week after week, addressing, debating and considering an eclectic mix of opinions, events and subject matter. Among the numerous topics they explored our podcasting pair made Oscar predictions and discussed the different hosts and their presenting styles, explored the origins and progressions of famous stage and screen productions, asked the important questions when it comes to planning and navigating a way through the unpredictable world that is the entertainment industry, and even evaluated the ins and outs of collaborative opportunities and the associated risks therein! So, quite the variety, and, as a result, in this show Drew and Sam bestow upon us a veritable smorgasbord of clips and highlights!    It has been said that “success breeds complacency”, and after over five wonderful years of podcasting you may worry that the chaps might have eased off a little. Fortunately, that is definitely not the case here, as even just a brief visit to this episode will prove that the Drewling Samantics lads are far from resting on their laurels, and are still putting in just as much effort and love as they always have done. So tune in now, see the season out in style, and then look forward to their triumphant return - just in time for summer!      Social Media  Facebook.com/DrewlingSamantics  Instagram.com/DrewlingSamantics  Twitter.com/Drew_and_Sam  Youtube.com/@drewlingsamantics    RSS Feed  https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/1696714.rss    Music  Vlad Gluschenko - Sunny Winter Day  Creative Commons Attribution 3.0  https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/deed.en Ping us a message - we love to hear your thoughts!

Season Fifteen: Best of Guests

Season Fifteen – Best of Guests      Regular listeners and viewers are well aware that during this season Drewling Samantics celebrated an impressive milestone - five years of podcasting. So that’s half a decade of chat and banter from the boys, but also five years of fantastic guests from all spheres of the industry.    Season Fifteen certainly sustained the high level of brilliance we have all come to expect when it comes to Drewling Samantics visitors, and Drew and Sam will be the first to admit it was an absolute honour to be impressed, shocked and entertained in equal measure by some superb professionals. Emily Juler, Tom Capper, Kim Scopes, Christophe Philipps, Tommy Murray, Vittorio Verta and Liz Garland all brought their knowledge and talent, wit and laughter, inspiration and insight from their individual areas of expertise and experience in the entertainment universe, and alongside the career and professional talk, there were plenty of very personal stories to share too, both struggles and triumphs.    So tune into this latest compilation episode, as our hosts look back at just a few choice examples from the very many there are to enjoy, and then don’t forget to come back again next week, as the chaps choose their own personal highlights for the final show of Season Fifteen.     Social Media  Facebook.com/DrewlingSamantics  Instagram.com/DrewlingSamantics  Twitter.com/Drew_and_Sam  Youtube.com/@DrewlingSamantics    RSS Feed  https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/1696714.rss    Music  Vlad Gluschenko - Sunny Winter Day  Creative Commons Attribution 3.0  https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/deed.en [https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/deed.en]  Ping us a message - we love to hear your thoughts!

S15E13 - Certain Uncertainty

Certain Uncertainty      Drewling Samantics Season Fifteen is on the brink of completion, with only the always enjoyable “Best Of” episodes to come after this week, before Drew and Sam take a break from podcasting and run off for some performing adventures. They are sure they will both have a fabulous time on their upcoming projects, but, enjoyable as they no doubt will be, the chaps are also certain that gigs like these will go by extremely quickly (or it will feel like that anyway), and afterwards there may be a period of being out of work - or at least a level of uncertainty regarding what will come next.    Dealing with the inevitable “less busy” periods is not always easy, but it is a part of the industry that all performers have to address at some point, and equally can be part of the excitement or drive behind what comes next. However, as the boys have mentioned before, there are many factors that govern how these periods feel, or are dealt with. Money, time, availability of appropriate opportunities, hobbies - all these and more can have an effect on what shapes the gaps between specific projects, and ultimately how creatives survive.    Our dynamic duo unpack a few more factors and feelings in this epsiode, and bring us their tried and tested blend of informative and informal, so join them today and make sure you return for the next couple of weeks as well to enjoy the remainder of this season. Don’t worry about the forthcoming break though, because one thing is absolutely certain - Drewling Samantics will return!      Social Media  Facebook.com/DrewlingSamantics  Instagram.com/DrewlingSamantics  Twitter.com/Drew_and_Sam  Youtube.com/@drewlingsamantics    RSS Feed  https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/1696714.rss     Music  Vlad Gluschenko - Sunny Winter Day  Creative Commons Attribution 3.0  https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/deed.en Ping us a message - we love to hear your thoughts!

S15E12 - Write Place, Write Time

Write Place, Write Time      Drew and Sam host their final guest of Season Fifteen this week, and it’s safe to say they are rounding off in style with a visit from the delightful and enormously talented Liz Garland. Both boys have had the pleasure of working with Lizzie, and indeed she has crossed paths with quite a few of the podcast’s previous guests as well, but being the in-demand actor, writer, producer and coach (to name but a few of the guises she takes on in this varied industry) that she is, it’s certainly no wonder!    Her current production ‘Becoming Simone’ opens the week after this episode is released, and sets off on what is undoubtedly going to be a hugely successful maiden tour. As Lizzie explains, the play’s journey from first writing to developing into a full stage production has been a long but enjoyable one, and it has taken quite some determination and graft - but fortunately neither are things that she is afraid of! As well as enjoying her own successes, Lizzie helps others achieve theirs with her work as a coach, teaching and encouraging speakers and presenters in the corporate world, sharing powerful and valuable tips, tricks and advice, and providing support to all who are lucky enough to receive it.    Beyond being generous with her various skills and talents, Lizzie is also kind enough to give up some time for this brilliant podcast appearance, and, just like Drew and Sam, we are extremely glad she did, as it is the perfect way to round off another roster of fabulous Drewling Samantics guests.      Social Media  Facebook.com/DrewlingSamantics  Instagram.com/DrewlingSamantics  Twitter.com/Drew_and_Sam  Youtube.com/@DrewlingSamantics    Instagram.com/LizzieGarland  Forest-Arts.co.uk    RSS Feed  https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/1696714.rss    Music  Vlad Gluschenko - Sunny Winter Day  Creative Commons Attribution 3.0  https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/deed.en Ping us a message - we love to hear your thoughts!

S15E11 - Hopes, Hosts and Hoorays

Hopes, Hosts and Hoorays      The Drewling Samantics boys are playing catch up this week, having got together with friend of the pod Phillip Lee a fortnight ago to record an episode in style, and actually getting the chance to work together in person on a immersive  job last week, as well as welcoming the brilliant Vittorio Verta to the show, this latest outing finally provides the opportunity for the chaps to look back at the Oscar predictions they made a few episodes ago. Some they got right and some they didn’t, but it definitely sparks an interesting look at how awards ceremonies are presented, received and used.    As with all aspects of life, not everything goes smoothly, especially when it comes to host and winners’ speeches, which can sometimes take an unexpected turn. Personality and politics make an interesting mix, and Drew and Sam open a whole “golden envelope” of opinions and events - both exciting and shocking!    However, one thing is for certain, and that is that each year the awards season is highly anticipated, discussed at length, and immensely enjoyed by audience and performers alike. And, as such, Drew and Sam will continue to enjoy talking about them, as well as keeping their fingers crossed - you never know what the future holds!      Social Media  Facebook.com/DrewlingSamantics  Instagram.com/DrewlingSamantics  Twitter.com/Drew_and_Sam  Youtube.com/@drewlingsamantics    RSS Feed  https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/1696714.rss     Music  Vlad Gluschenko - Sunny Winter Day  Creative Commons Attribution 3.0  https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/deed.en Ping us a message - we love to hear your thoughts!
