In this Friday edition of That Peter Crouch Podcast, Chris Stark, Steve Sidwell, and Peter Crouch return from a boozy golf break and jump straight into the chaos of final-day football madness.

From traditional Irish pub singalongs and mysterious ‘dark diary’ golf trips, to Rod Stewart’s house tour, this episode has it all. The lads dish out wild Premier League predictions, reflect on Crystal Palace’s emotional FA Cup win, and debate the fate of Ipswich and Everton.

There’s banner tributes, Sean Dyche's tactical accuracy, and a Crystal Palace moment that brought everyone to tears. Plus, the crew finally settles on the one prediction source to trust… (shoutout to @tucker19) Who will be doing the forfeit?

On this week’s episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, Pete, Chris, and Sids embrace the upcoming off-season mood and dive headfirst into all things holiday mode.

Crouchy reminisces about intense training sessions in Swiss mountains, awkward dressing room introductions after summer transfers, and the chaos of sneaking out for that cheeky “lads trip” before your partner notices.

Sids reveals the behind-the-scenes stress of holiday planning as a footballer, including dodging club fines, wild weddings in June, and dealing with furious managers missing out on top-ten bonuses.

There’s barbecue chat, dodgy decking drama, “Big Brother” moments via home surveillance, and even a hysterical pitch for the next podcast-branded spirit: Bonfire Spiced Rum.

From backyard grill battles to full-blown football psychology and summer transfers, this episode is your perfect companion for pre-season nostalgia and post-season relief.

On this week’s episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, the lads go into one of the juiciest debates of the season — if Spurs win the Europa League… have they had a BETTER season than Arsenal?

Pete, Sids and Chris weigh up silverware vs second place, and whether finishing runners-up in the league without a trophy holds a candle to lifting something in Europe — even if it comes with a 17th place finish. The Arsenal-Spurs dynamic is shifting, and the boys aren’t sitting on the fence.

Away from the football, there’s plenty of nonsense… we get stories of seagull muggings in Cornwall, monkeys raiding hotel fridges, and Chris’ recent dolphin safari. Plus, one listener’s mum is not letting him attend Spurs’ potential big night, and the pod receives its first ever official fishmonger application.

To top it all off, there's a very serious warning: never go full ‘Rod’ unless you’re medically cleared.

The former Everton, Newcastle United, and Rangers striker, who later managed Everton, sits down with Pete, Chris, and Sids for a wild ride through his explosive football career. Known for his aggressive style of play, legendary scraps, and deeply loyal fanbase, “Big Dunc” doesn’t hold back.

From prison time to on-field battles, Duncan shares jaw-dropping stories from his time in the game—headbutts, red cards, and what it was really like behind the scenes at Goodison Park. He opens up about managing Everton, the modern player, and his scariest moments on and off the pitch.

This week on That Peter Crouch Podcast, the Friday Edition, Pete, Sids, and Chris serve up some fresh football takes, and nipple cream controversy as they unpack Sid’s London Marathon, chaotic VAR decisions, and the bizarre world of stadium announcer catchphrases.

Fresh from running 26.2 miles, Sids brings medal-in-hand reflections on the sheer madness and magic of the marathon, with touching shout-outs from fans, and revisiting the surprise phone call from John Terry during the recent live stream where he revealed his own nipple struggles mid-run.

The lads also reflect on their first-ever livestream watchalong (think Gogglebox meets CrouchFest) and dream up where it could go next — Boxpark half-time shows, anyone?

Elsewhere, they dive into Liverpool's dominant win, the TNT “False Two” launch, and Klopp's potential return. There's also talk about Cheavon Clarke’s recent trolling of Spurs in their own stadium, thunderous nicknames at Leeds, and the most iconic stadium shouts in the UK.

It’s football analysis, marathon madness, and complete nonsense… all in a day’s pod.

With firsthand stories from their own careers, including Crouchy’s brief stint at Norwich, to Sid’s heartbreak at Brighton, they discuss how the psychological rollercoaster of the Play-Offs impacts clubs, fans, and players alike.

From debating whether staying in the Championship is actually more fun than promotion, to reminiscing on iconic moments like Troy Deeney’s miracle goal and Bobby Zamora’s last-gasp winner, the episode blends nostalgia, insider insight, and hilarious tangents—including sandwich debates, shared lawn feuds, and the real meaning behind "gulf in class."

On this week’s episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, Pete, Chris, and Sids dive in with some pre-marathon chat, as Sids gears up for the London Marathon with a torn calf and a point to prove. The lads rally behind him and address what turned out to be a not-so-accurate slogan—‘Quid for Sids’ (actually a fiver).

They unpack this week’s outrageous Premier League predictions, the form of teams like Liverpool and Arsenal, and what’s going on at Chelsea and Spurs. Plus, wild tangents ensue—from Jamie Vardy memes, to middle-seat van etiquette, to a riotous reinvention of football jargon with concepts like ‘false one’ and ‘fraudulent five’.

It’s classic chaos, with hot takes on Harry Maguire up front, Rimmel London’s football insight (kind of), and just enough stats to keep it somewhat legit.

On this week’s episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, something totally unexpected happens—Ashley Cole drops in for an impromptu visit while out in Portugal with Crouchy, catching the lads completely off guard!

With Chris still away and sunning himself on a well-earned holiday, and Sids dialing in from the Chumbawum-bar, this one turns into an unplanned but surprisingly insightful deep dive.

Ashley shares his behind-the-scenes coaching insight from his time with England's U21s, analysing the most exciting young players in English football right now—including Myles Lewis-Skelly, Ethan Nwaneri, and Morgan Gibbs-White—explaining what separates arrogance from confidence in the next generation. 

The group also debates whether the Championship-to-Prem gap is now impossible to cross, and whether the so-called ‘mid-table’ teams are actually leveling up faster than you think…

Oh, and it wouldn’t be a classic Pod without a bit of chaos: limbs chat, golf games, and an eBay XI that nobody asked for featuring David “Buy Now” and Erik Ten Haggle.

As ever, absolutely no structure, but loads of laughs.

00:17:17 – Ashley’s potential future as a manager

00:26:31 – Fan celebrations and “limbs”

00:30:34 – Crouchy’s dad literally fell into a pit!
