  • Summary

  • 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.

    Target Audience


    It’s the last Drew and Sam episode of Season 11, and in this season finale they are singing the praises of their audience members - or at least appreciating the variety and quirks that different groups of patrons can bring.

    Love them or hate them (with the latter only occurring on very rare occasions of course!) there would be no point to a performance of any kind without an audience... or would there?! In fact could there actually be a performance with no audience at all?! Hold that thought, as there’s a whole episode worth of discussion there in itself! But intrinsic thoughts and strange considerations aside, both of the Drewling Samantics chaps have experienced the warmth, joy and excitement from various audiences over their careers. That said, “there’s nowt so strange as folk”, and spectators can be highly unpredictable, and are always liable to respond differently depending on venue or location!

    So join the fun now for a last entertaining chat before Drew and Sam are off on their theatre adventures for the summer, they will return very soon with stories, discussions and guests aplenty for Season 12 - but not before the always enjoyable “Best Of” episodes, don’t miss them!

    Falling into Place


    Season Eleven of Drewling Samantics is almost over - where has the time gone?! Indeed, today’s episode is the last time in the season that the chaps are visited by a guest, and it’s safe to say they are ending with a bang!

    Pete Løvstrøm has had a fascinating career, and that is putting it lightly. Starting out he chanced his arm and landed on his feet, which you could say came as a bit of shock to him! He had the good fortune, and the talent of course, to share stage and screen with some up and coming actors, directors and producers of the time - a much appreciated side effect for a young man starting out during a period when theatre was getting a rather substantial kick up the backside from the emerging talent that would go on to be theatre and TV heavyweights.

    Pete talks with energy, passion and great knowledge, and a joy for the work he made his specialty. Taking inspiration from his hero Buster Keaton, learning from and emulating him where he could, he carved a particular niche for himself that has won him large amounts of work and plenty of justified admiration. The art forms of “pratfalls” and slapstick comedy have enormous history and respect, and Pete is no stranger to either -, in fact they exactly what he loves most!

    So tune in now for an episode full of pure theatre, and witness Pete sweep Drew and Sam off their feet (theoretically speaking!) It’s the perfect reminder of just what Drewling Samantics is all about!

  • S11E11 - Labour of Love?
    Jul 14 2024

    Labour of Love?


    Well, it has been a very busy time lately hasn’t it! A general election in the UK, football’s European Championships and the Copa America, Wimbledon, and an election in France to name but a few big recent events. Drew and Sam have been very busy performing and rehearsing too, and even PicNick is busy (well he’s on holiday, but he works extremely hard so he’s earned it!) But the Drewling Samantics team are never so busy that they can’t take some time out and release another podcast episode for loyal fans, followers and listeners.

    With such a lot for the chaps to talk about, it’s straight down to business, news and a catch up, and as always with Drew and Sam they aren’t afraid to address the tough stuff. How will a change of government affect things? How does one afford to train for the theatre? How much do the arts contribute to society? And will Drew and Sam survive another penalty shoot-out?!

    This episode bubbles along nicely, with the boys hitting the subjects around like a well played rally, so they vote you join them as they kick around for another episode - well until they are joined by a special guest next week!
