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.

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!
