emocleW, emocleW, emocleW to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!
This is your bonus FRIDAY REWIND episode! Today, we catch up with Howard Marks, originally episode 33 from 2015-04-29.
An amazing episode which was recorded approximately a year before Howard died, which details so much of his life, legacy, his legal scrapes and all sorts along the way. Definitely one to catch up on if you haven't heard it before - Howard was a legend of a human and wherever you stand on the drug smuggling spectrum, the chances are you'll get a lot of goodness and light from this episode. One for the books!

| 0:44.2 | the audio on this, Howard was very quiet, was as we went on to learn, very much towards the |
