Drewling Samantics
Drew and Sam are actors. They haven’t won any Academy Awards yet, and neither of them is in line to be the new James Bond (sorry Sam), but between them they do have over half a century’s worth of experience in the industry. Many months ago a combination of boredom, significantly reduced work opportunities (thanks pandemic!) and overactive and under-stimulated imaginations inspired them to create a podcast, and somehow they’re still at it. Join the Drewling Samantics chaps every Sunday (or download and listen later) as they give an entertaining insight into how their industry works - from modelling to voiceover, theatre to film, and television to streamed media, the gents talk about all areas of performance artistry, giving an insider view that is sometimes humorous, often eye-opening or poignant, and at times just downright strange! With regular guest appearances and the odd special ‘on location’ segment, Drewling Samantics brings something unique and fresh to the world of podcasts from two normal blokes, working in a rather abnormal industry.

At the Tap of their Game
An illness has targeted one half of our podcasting pair, but did that stop this week’s recording? Absolutely not! Drewling Samantics remains resilient, and a mere virus can’t halt the boys on their quest to bring entertaining content to the masses! Inadvertently though, being temporarily resigned to watching daytime TV in bed has helped inspire this episode’s subject matter it would seem. Every cloud, as they say!
Some people are particularly accomplished in specific aspects of their craft beyond all others, dedicating their whole energies to being the very best in that specialised field. And while that is not unique to the entertainment industry (far from it) the performance world calls upon many abilities so being more versed in some over others makes a lot of sense. Dancers and singers in certain disciplines such as opera or ballet, or, as becomes a focal point of today’s show, Irish dancing, become extremely skilled, and their whole career then reflects that dedication and remarkable talent as they seek to reach perfection.
No matter how gifted a person may be, everyone can think of a couple of things they wish they could be better at, or would have enjoyed pursuing further, and that is equally true for our dynamic duo. But what exactly could those things be? Well you’ll just have to join them now to find out more!
