The Therapy Crouch

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, Pete is flying solo for a special AMA throwback as he revisits some of the funniest, weirdest and most chaotic moments from old episodes of the podcast. With Abbey away volunteering at an animal shelter (genuinely), Pete dives into a handpicked selection of listener questions that completely derailed the pod over the years.

We hear the infamous debate over whether it’s “Shaba” or “Shava”, a surprisingly deep conversation about losing memories, and one listener’s dilemma about open relationships that sparks absolute carnage in the studio. Pete also looks back on romantic getaway recommendations, cowboy fantasy holidays, and one brutal question that forces him to choose between golf… and Abbey.

As always, the AMA questions are carrying the podcast once again and Pete admits looking back at the old clips genuinely had him crying laughing.

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, the Portugal adventures continue as Abbey and Peter settle into holiday life with VERY mixed results. Peter gives us the dramatic rundown after suffering a painful defeat on the tennis court while Abbey reveals she’s been volunteering at an incredible animal rescue centre in the Algarve and may have fallen in love with another dog… again.

Elsewhere, Pete finally gets his hands on Abbey’s GCSE certificates after years of doubting her straight A claims, but is he convinced they’re actually real?! We also dive into some absolutely bizarre conspiracy theories involving Flat Earth believers, robot birds, AI taking over the world and whether Bill Gates is secretly behind EVERYTHING.

In the Agony Abs, we hear from a listener whose mother-in-law keeps secretly rearranging her house and another who’s completely horrified by her husband’s “helicopter” habits after showering…

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, we’re back for another Ask Me Anything and things get unexpectedly heated… over PAINT. Abbey Clancy and Peter Crouch dive into a listener dilemma about kitchen colours, which quickly spirals into a full-blown debate on Abbey’s obsession with the infamous “bone” shade. From “50 shades of bone” to Peter questioning his entire marriage contract, it’s chaos from the start.

Abbey leans into her interior design expertise, dropping surprisingly detailed recommendations (and proving she definitely knows her stuff), while Peter isn’t entirely convinced—especially when talk turns to gold floral wallpaper and dream living rooms. The pair clash over style, money, and what really matters when building a home, leading to a deeper conversation about whether a house is just a house… or something much more meaningful.

Plus, the gang answer your questions on relationships, from navigating design disagreements with your partner to planning the perfect 15-year anniversary without breaking the bank—featuring some seriously tempting travel tips (Greece might be calling…). Expect laughs, honesty, and a glimpse into how differently couples can see the same life decisions.

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, the Portugal trip rolls on as the gang battle through hangovers, questionable decisions and some seriously strong opinions on relationships. After a heavy night, the boys are feeling it as they dive into everything from airport pints and junk food cravings to the strange “punishment” dynamic that can creep into relationships after having a bit too much fun.

Things quickly spiral into one of the funniest and most chaotic ick discussions yet – including a barber chair moment that might just be the greatest ick of all time. The team also tackle your dilemmas, from navigating life after a breakup to whether giving your ex money after winning the lottery makes you a terrible person… or just a decent human being.

Plus, in Am I The A**hole, things get heated as the group debate workplace drama, relationship boundaries and the fine line between banter and going too far.

The couple open up about deciding to move house after ten years, why they’re ready for a fresh chapter, and Abbey’s dream of more land, animals, growing vegetables and creating the ultimate family home. Peter also gives his honest take on Abbey wanting what sounds suspiciously like a private compound.

Elsewhere, the pair discuss dream homes, luxury interiors, tattoos, terrible cooking disasters and why men simply cannot resist touching things as they walk past them.

There’s also a touching message from a listener whose week was made easier during a difficult hospital stay thanks to the podcast.

Expect laughs, honesty, relationship chaos and classic Therapy Crouch energy throughout.

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, Abbey and Peter are back in Portugal for part two of their sunny getaway, but there’s no peace and quiet in sight. Abbey wastes no time exposing Peter for turning the family holiday into a full-blown sports tour, with golf, paddle, football and post-match beers all somehow making the itinerary ahead of family time. Peter, naturally, insists it’s all part of his passion for sport.

The couple then get into a surprisingly honest and hilarious debate about why football brings men together so easily, and whether women have anything that creates the same kind of instant bond. Peter reflects on his emotional return to Liverpool for the Legends match and why sport has always been his escape, while Abbey explains exactly why golf sends her over the edge.

Later on, things descend into total chaos with a Portugal-themed quiz involving capitals, custard tarts and some wildly confident wrong answers. Sunshine, arguments, emotional moments and complete nonsense… just another day on The Therapy Crouch.

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, Abbey, Peter and the team kick off the very first special Portugal Series with a chaotic Ask Me Anything episode from sunny Portugal. What starts as a simple Q&A quickly turns into classic Therapy Crouch madness as the gang discuss holiday packing disasters, bringing 12 suitcases but somehow forgetting the essentials, and the reality of family life abroad.

Abbey and Peter also get brutally honest about parenting four children, whether boys are harder work than girls, and how they divide the madness of school runs, clubs and everyday family life. Abbey gives a rare insight into what her work days actually look like, from shoots and brand deals to juggling home life and total chaos behind the scenes.

Elsewhere, the team debate why the phrase “body count” is one of the worst modern terms around, reveal their funniest relationship banter, and somehow end up discussing underwear, dressing gowns and karaoke.

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, Abbey and Peter are back with their usual mix of honesty, chaos and laugh-out-loud moments as they dive into the realities of relationships and family life.

Things kick off with Abbey’s “weekly whine” as she calls out Peter’s inability to say “no”—leading to confusing messages, overcomplicated situations and a few relationship frustrations. Peter hits back, claiming he’s just trying not to offend people, sparking a relatable debate about communication styles in relationships.

We also hear about a disastrous night’s sleep thanks to Abbey’s beloved Calm app, as Peter reveals how a relaxing meditation voice actually leaves him wide awake. From there, things spiral into bedtime chaos after the pair fall asleep watching TV and wake up to a completely different (and slightly traumatic) show.

The conversation turns more heartfelt as they discuss Mother’s Day, expectations around appreciation, and whether love should be shown every day rather than saved for special occasions. Plus, they open up about the realities of parenting—juggling kids of different ages, losing their weekends, and finding ways to keep the whole family entertained.

Later in the episode, Abbey plans Peter’s ultimate dream day—from luxury holidays to golf and unrealistic travel plans—before things take a hilarious turn in the kitchen as they argue over how to properly make a jacket potato.

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, Abbey, Peter and Gaz are back answering your dilemmas and things get very real, very quickly.

The gang react to a shocking message between a boyfriend and his coworker that has Abbey firmly calling it out as cheating, while Pete questions whether there’s any grey area at all. It sparks a heated debate on boundaries, flirting and when it’s time to walk away.

We also hear an incredible proposal story involving a surprise appearance in Rio that feels straight out of a film, before Abbey and Pete share their honest advice on weddings, relationships and what actually matters after years together.

Elsewhere, there’s plenty of chaos as the team unpack “icks,” awkward public fails, and the moments that can instantly change how you see your partner. From heroic saves to total disasters, it’s safe to say not everyone comes out looking good…

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, we’re joined by Love Island All Stars winners Molly and Tom, who are swapping villa life for the podcast world as the new hosts of the NearlyWeds podcast.

We dive into what it’s really like going from reality TV to hosting your own show, with Molly and Tom admitting that podcasting is a “whole different ballgame” and has actually forced them to sit down, communicate and properly plan their wedding (whether Tom likes it or not…).

The pair open up on life after Love Island, why real life is the true test of a relationship, and how moving in together immediately might not be as crazy as it sounds. Plus, we get into the chaos of wedding planning, from emotional dress shopping to guest list dilemmas and everything in between.

Elsewhere, Abbey and Pete are back with their usual madness, from early morning conspiracy theories and nuclear bunker debates to listener dilemmas and some questionable workplace nicknames.
