On this week’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, Abbey and Peter are joined by two very special guests—award-winning author and How to Fail podcast host Elizabeth Day and renowned relationship expert and Married at First Sight star Mel Schilling.

With love, dating, and relationships on the agenda, the gang dives deep into the highs and horrors of modern romance. Elizabeth and Mel share their unique love stories—including both meeting their husbands online at the age of 39—and unpack the wild world of dating apps, the psychology behind toxic relationships, and why so many people settle for the wrong partner.

Abbey and Peter open up about their own relationship dynamics, while Mel and Elizabeth put them under the microscope with some expert-level couple analysis.

And in this week’s Agony Abs, things take a turn for the unexpected—should you be worried if your partner wants you to dress as a burglar? And what do you do if you receive an anonymous letter claiming your husband is cheating?

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, Abbey and Peter are joined by two special guests—McFly drummer and presenter Harry Judd, and The One Show’s very own Alex Jones. Together, they co-host the new podcast BINGE!, all about the eternal struggle of choosing what to watch.

The group dives into the chaos of married life, the unexpected ways TV taste can ruin relationships, and whether binge-watching is a bonding experience or a battleground.

Harry reflects on McFly’s 21-year journey, their tour with Busted, and how band life has changed now that most of them are dads. 

Alex shares wild behind-the-scenes stories from The One Show, including the most bizarre guests ever.

Also on the agenda—an Agony Abs dilemma that has the group in stitches: should a die-hard Oasis fan take his wife or his best mate to the gig of a lifetime? Plus, a completely insane fertility ‘hack’ involving walnuts that left everyone speechless.

Abbey shares her latest travel disaster, from missing clothes to margarita-fueled airport chaos, while Peter dives into a shocking statistic—apparently, 50% of young men have never asked a woman out in person?! The couple debates whether modern dating has officially killed chivalry and relives the pure terror of making a house phone call to ask someone out back in the day.

In Agony Abs, a listener wonders whether she should warn her ex’s new girlfriend about his shocking web of lies, and another seeks advice on helping her son handle school bullies. Peter gets personal about his own childhood struggles, offering some brutally honest words of wisdom for anyone facing criticism.
