On this week’s episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, the lads sit down with Premier League and England goalkeeping legend Joe Hart for an unbelievably honest, funny and revealing chat about the wildest moments of his career. From the chaotic early days at Manchester City and their takeover era, to the surreal Aguero title-winner scenes, Joe takes us inside the dressing room, the pressure, and the mentality of surviving as a top-level No.1.

He opens up on the brutal moment Pep Guardiola told him he wasn’t part of the new City vision, the emotional rollercoaster of being England’s first-choice keeper, and the madness of shooting sessions with Beckham, Rooney, Gerrard, Lampard and Crouchy himself. The lads also go deep on team culture, loans, being replaced, punditry life, and even why goalkeepers should be allowed to wear hats again.

And of course, there are stories from the 2010 World Cup dartboard battles, arguments with Declan Rice, and Joe’s new extreme-challenge podcast. Let us know in the comments — what would YOU have done in Joe’s position when Pep arrived?
