Drewling Samantics
by 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

S16E11 - Two for the Price of One

S16E07 - On the Road Again

S16E05 - Fit for the Part
Fit for the Part We’re back with Drew and Sam once again for this week’s fabulous Drewling Samantics episode, and it seems like we’re giving the chaps a little bit of a “check-up”! Viewers, rather than listeners of Drewling Samantics, and if you haven’t given a YouTube version of an episode a go...

-
S16E01 - Sweet Sixteen
Sweet Sixteen Yes, no need to adjust your YouTube, and you can believe your ears, the boys are back! But it’s not difficult to admit that neither Drew nor Sam are anywhere near sixteen, and as for sweet... well, that’s definitely something not to comment on! So, what exactly is going on with the...

-
S15E10 - Lighting Up The World
Lighting Up The World Tuning in to Drewling Samantics this week provides a chance to shine a light (if you’ll excuse the pun!) on another facet and specialised area of the performance world - stage and show lighting. It is rather ironic that the experts and technicians in one of the most…

-
S15E08 - Tommy, To You

S15E07 - High Five
High Five Whether you’re a regular listener, a sporadic viewer, a past guest, or a relative newcomer, you may not realise that this has been a rather momentous week for Drewling Samantics - the show is five years old! That’s right, for half a decade Drew and Sam have been delighting (or...
-
S15E06 - Proud to Present
Proud to Present ‘Inspiring’ is a word that’s often overused, but in the case of this week’s Drewling Samantics guest, it is not only accurate, but well and truly deserved. Christophe Philipps has taken a professional journey as a musician, actor and presenter that has been as much shaped and...
-
S15E05 - The Chicken or the Egg
The Chicken or the Egg Film? Book? Play? TV? No, despite how it may appear, Drew and Sam aren’t playing charades on Drewling Samantics this week; however there are some questions to be asked, and they’re certainly doing their best to make sure they answer them! Many of us will have watched a...

S15E02 - Double Trouble

-
S15E01 - eXciting reVival
eXciting reVival What, well where did that come from?! It’s only an episode of Drewling Samantics, that’s all! Yes the boys are finally back and rather than building up to this exciting new season they’ve just dropped it on us without warning - shocking, but rather enjoyable we can all agree! So...
-
Season Fourteen: Best of Drew & Sam
Season Fourteen – Best of Drew & Sam Well another season of Drewling Samantics has reached its climax, and rather good timing too as both boys are now fully immersed in their respective seasonal contracts (it’s almost like they planned the dates - maybe they’re better at this than they give...

S14E12 - Dance To Your Own Tune

S14E09 - What On Earth Are You Wearing?
What On Earth Are You Wearing? Drew and Sam are back for another instalment of chat and banter, so, having both engaged in a very busy week of work related travelling, they hang up their coats and settle in for a bit podcast fun. Today’s meeting sees the chaps taking the opportunity to discuss...
-
S14E08 - All in the Mind
All in the Mind Another week means another guest, but any suggestion that that brings an element of repetition is nonsense, as today’s episode is far from boring or run of the mill! You see today the Drewling Samantics boys welcome a guest with a difference - he’s very much a part of the…
more -
S14E07 - Self Improv-ment
Self Improv-ment Despite careful pre-planning and in-depth discussion, Drew and Sam readily admit that it may at times look as if they are making things up on the spot. In fact the content they bring us is frequently sporadic and “off-the-cuff”, but actually it’s fair to say that that’s part of…

S14E06 - Dress to Impress
Dress to Impress Whether you are a regular listener or viewer, or a relative newcomer to the podcast, this week’s episode is sure to be quite the treat, as the delightful and talented Tilly Burrows joins Drew and Sam for a chat. Tilly is a theatre professional and creative currently working in…

-
S14E02 - CrackerJack
CrackerJack Everybody loves a good podcast guest, but a good guest isn’t what’s on the menu this week on Drewling Samantics, as describing the first visitor of Season Fourteen as merely “good” would be quite the insult! Yes, today the boys are thrilled to welcome the immensely talented and rather...
-
S14E01 - Ten-Four Good Buddies
Ten-Four Good Buddies Fourteen isn’t normally considered to be a particularly significant number. It’s not the first teenage year, it’s more than a Baker’s Dozen, it isn’t associated with bad luck or other superstitions, and from a mathematical point of view it doesn’t really have many special...
-
Season Thirteen: Best of Drew & Sam
Season Thirteen – Best of Drew & Sam What do you possibly do after enjoying one hundred and ninety-four episodes of a fantastic podcast? Well, you dive right in to the one hundred and ninety-fifth episode of course! Yes, the boys at Drewling Samantics have reached their final show of Season...
-

S13E12 - Photogenius
Photogenius Sadly, we have reached the final guest episode of this Drewling Samantics season, but the boys (and their visitor) are making sure Season Thirteen is finishing up in picture-perfect fashion! Now it could be said it doesn’t take a genius to be photogenic, but it does take a certain...
-
S13E11 - Panel Beating
Panel Beating It can be a strange and interesting journey in the entertainment world, just when you think you know your place and start to establish some form of predictability, along comes a job or opportunity and the tables are turned! A few episodes ago Drew and Sam took on the topic of...
