3:50I mean, you may have had a thing in it. Because when we were in New York, I was like, are you taking the piss? You've been together 12 years. I mean, you did make me feel bad. Yeah. You did. And how do you feel? How was it? How did it go? I think it went quite well, actually, to be fair. And I think I put a lot of effort into the ring that I was supposed to have in America. But I ended up turning up late. so I ended up proposing at home instead. So was your original plan to... I know you want to talk about it. The plan was perfect. The original plan was fantastic. Was it in America though? It was in America.

4:32It was, yeah. Oh, what a shame. Things happen for a reason. It was meant to be how it was meant to be. I want to get engaged again. I know, but there's plenty of time. No, it's just like we've done all the fun stuff. Have we? There's nothing left. There's nothing left. Well, congratulations, Chris. Congratulations, mate. That's great news. No, because, you know, we've been engaged. I don't think we've done all the fun stuff. We've got married. Our youth is dead and buried. It's not dead and buried. We've had newborns. We've had toddlers. All the good stuff's gone. I disagree. I think all the good stuff's to come.

5:11You've got your 60th. My next big one's 50. That's old as fuck, isn't it? But anyway, let's not be doom and gloom. What I'm saying is actually we could see the kids grow up, see them get married. You know, when they do grow up as well, they're going to piss off. I want to be in their wedding with all hot young chicks and I'll be like a little granny in the corner getting wheeled out. Hello. You know, I don't want that. You know, you'll be a hot, you'll be a gilf. No denying it. I will because I'll get facelift. I'll get everything done. Second one. Second one, yeah. Not again. I'll get my balls lifted.

5:49My saggy balls, I'll get them lifted up. You need that now? Oh my God, did you see that thing I sent you today about the hair transplant? I can't do that. You can't do that. Have you seen it, John? Have you seen what happens when you get a hair transplant? Have you seen Jordan's hair transplant? Is it amazing? He's like a different person. He's like good looking now and everything. He's always good looking, Jordan. Oh my God. He's good looking now and everything. He couldn't pull a muscle for years. He looked about 60 years old. Remember when he tried it on with me? He had a little leg and he had a little, Tufted hair in the thing.

6:18Got a full, full hairline, like Foden, full Foden, like a sharp as an arrow. He looks like Foden, he looks, has he gone, is it still short? He went full turkey and he's come back, he's got a little blonde afro on the top. He looks like, unbelievable. He's an absolute babe magnet now. Babe magnet. Newly single as well. He's tearing up Liverpool. So yeah, watch out world. I love Jordan. He's hot property with his new hairline. Do you remember when Jordan tried to try it on with me? Yeah. Do you remember that? Was it actually, did he actually try and just... No, John was working. You were out. And John was like, do you want to come with me?

6:55And Jordan was like, no, I'll just stay in with Abbie. And I was on the couch, he went, do you want to watch American Pie together? And he was doing the whole... He wasn't yawning, was he actually yawning? Put his arm around me and everything. I was like, Jordan, what are you doing, mate? Get away, I've known you since you're like four years old. Piss off. And I'm 12 years older than him. Cheeky bastard. I know, yeah. So you're not going for the turkey then, no? I just think they will. I feel like there could be a coming of time soon. I just don't think... I mean, Anne's told me she said she'd leave me if I got a ball time.

7:24I won't leave you, but... Well, P, I'm working on a deal for you. Are you? Hair pills, yeah. Hair pills, yeah. Big ones coming in. So you could be sore. What, the problem with that, your bush is going to get even bigger. And that I won't be able to deal with. I haven't got a big hairy bush at all. No, it's trim. of his manscaped. Pete, stop. Well, it's not his push. No, but anyway, I sent Pete this video. So this guy had his hair transplant and his whole face swelled up. His eyes closed over. He could push his forehead in. It was like, no. I've seen that. I've seen that. And I spoke to Alf. I showed Alfie today.

8:04I said, Pete can't possibly get one of these hair transplants if this is what happens. And he said, oh, that's normal. It's part of the process. Part of the process. But to be honest. Did it happen to George? Yeah, I'm trying to get a picture up now. That face is a normal reaction. Yeah. Yeah, let me get the... That is not acceptable. Have you got a picture of Jordan's? Yeah, I'm going to try and get it up now. And then we'll ask each other things. Yeah, I'd like to get into it, actually. I'll tell you what, look, John seems to... He'll try and get into it. Is our Jordan going to be happy with this?

8:33Yeah, he's going to be made up. What, he's just telling me he's a handsome young chap now? He looks unreal. Well, you know, on this pod, we are setting people up. Maybe we should use Jordan as exhibit A and find him a chick. And he's a beautiful human inside and out. He's great. He's a funny man as well. And he's hilarious. I think we should get him a girlfriend on the pod. Yeah. This episode is sponsored by ZocDoc. Have you been putting off a doctor's appointment or need a dentist and you don't know where to start?

Liquid IV, hydration that goes wherever life takes you. all right let's get into the questions guys come on let's help some people out ask me things baby i can ask you things uh the clans chin as wonder and gaz john i'm for today uh why am i the chin as wonder i have got a chin no it's not a petite chin it's a strong jawline it's not it's fragile look that's a strong jawline look at that it's like a brick well yours is like desperate dan yours is going too far it's not a strong jawline you've got a heart shaped head so it goes like this you've got a dainty little chin it's like an alien shaped head surely that is not what a man wants with a chin you can get Botox there you can get filler there I could never be Superman could I no Batman Christian Bale's got the best chin for me you could get filler there and there.

11:28Yeah. I reckon you should. You can get it when you get it. Why is it that bad, my chin? It's not good. Is it really? Is it a bad chin? And then you could do, because it's getting a bit loose there now. It's not getting loose there. No, that like neck chin thing. It's not getting loose. I've got a double chin, so I can't talk. It's not getting loose. You could tighten that up. Stop pulling it down like a turkey. You could tighten it and you could fill there and then you'd have a strong jaw. I think I have got a strong jaw. My jaw is strong. when I chew I very rarely chew for longer than a few seconds anyway sorry this is a long one but I need your you're still fit I'm really pleased with that aren't you give us a kiss well you rinse me and then kiss me I'm only joking this is a long one but I need your help okay go on I'm a girl I've been friends with my best female friend for 15 years whilst I was at uni she got a boyfriend and we came close with his friendship group and their girlfriends oh god when I moved back home I was invited along to things every now and again and eventually became friends with the other girls we even went on a group holiday together then I got a boyfriend from day one he was never invited to anything the girls always said it was because their boyfriends had been friends since school so whenever they made a plan it wasn't thought thought of to ask me or my boyfriend and actually my boyfriend thought it was strange because with his friends I'm always included without a second thought over the last couple of years I've been invited to some things but left out of plenty of others, including my best friend's birthday.

12:58Sometimes I grew to balls to ask. I've had that happen to me, to be honest. Sometimes I grew to balls to ask if he could come and I imagine I caught them off guard. So they said, yes, the whole group gets on fine and I don't see anything wrong with it unless I'm delusional. One time I actually suggested going to the races as a group day out. They booked it without me. Then invited me as an afterthought once they'd bought all their tickets. when I asked if my boyfriend could come I was given every excuse to why he couldn't I even asked my best friend outright if she didn't like him but she said she had no reason not to I eventually told them how upset I was that thing left out they reassured me it wasn't intentional and said they didn't want me feeling like that but nothing has changed they've continued making plans without me whenever I mentioned about my boyfriend not being included not understanding why they said that people don't always blend and the more I ask him to come, I've had them exact words.

13:54the less they're going to do it. Yeah. How nice. We were meant to be booking another girl's holiday, but I'm now questioning whether I should save my money and invest my time in finding friends who don't make me feel like I'm only included when it's convenient. Okay, I'm just going to say this. No, she's not. What would you do? Thanks. I'm so glad I got through that without you interrupting. 15 times. I have personally had this happen to me and a very good friend of mine got involved with a new group got a new boyfriend started hanging around with their friends and in a normal circumstance we'd do everything together she'd do everything with pete and i and then when it was like that similar thing she had a birthday party we weren't invited i've spent the past 15 birthdays with her and then it was i will you know basically like you know you and pete aren't everyone's cups of tea or something like that Do you remember that?

14:46Fuck me. Threw me in as well. No, it was you. I just said, I just included me. It's just you. Are you making this up? No. It's true. What if it comes to that? Who said that? It's very hurtful. And there is a grieving process to it. But I think you just have to be nice and include people. Like for me, I'd be like, oh my God, more the merrier. Unless he was a complete twat. That's a different story. But they both don't sound like they are. People can be horrible. People can be bitchy. and I don't think she's overreacting. I think what she should do is definitely invest her time in people who love her.

15:21You know, all my friends love me. I love them. You know, and that is true friendship and you should only, life is too short to be wasting it with, you know, horrible people. Also, I think where the relationship's strong as well, like if you're strong in that relationship, like if someone thinks you're a twat, I immediately think they're a twat. Exactly. Because how can they not like you? exactly so and I think you think the same about me if people don't like me you're like well but to be honest I don't know one person who doesn't like you and I think that was you know certain people like change who they are to like fit in with groups and it's just like piss off yeah but like you say like I think we're we're comfortable like in our relationship do you know what I mean like so like I say if someone said that to me I'm not sure about Ab you know well you're dead to me well every single one who are made to do say that.

16:15Yeah. No, I think you've got your faults. Thanks. But you're ultimately a fucking fantastic person. I've got my faults, thanks. You've got your faults, you know, so as have I, as everyone on planet Earth. What are my faults? I think you can be quite harsh at times. You can perhaps be, you know, critical. You can call people out for... Critical? Do you mean morally correct? Yeah, you can call people out No, hang on a minute. Critical is just not a word that I'd use to describe me. Morally correct. I think critical is like, I think it's like you would call someone out for being wrong, you know, and people don't like that.

16:57People don't like getting called out, do they? So they would see that as a slight on them. It's like when Lucinda got called cold the other day. I just can't believe that. Cold. I think there's a difference between cold, like she's not cold. she's the hottest person i've ever met no when you're in you're in which is great because we're in but when you're when you're kind of you know not in it can be cold what's the difference between being shy with people you don't know and colds it's it's not it's not fair to us to assume cold good anyway she's doing the right thing fuck them off get some nice mates I love this advice.

17:43I need to stop swearing, fans. I agree. Fuck them off. Do you want to read Jen from Colchester for me? Hey, Abs, Pete and Johnny boy. Bit of a weird ask me anything. My partner and I have been together for a long time and we've always talked about getting married someday. Yeah, Chris. This is my first relationship, but he's had a few before me and they've all ended fairly ceremoniously. Anyway, I am delighted to announce that he proposed and it was perfection. and I was over the moon and said yes. However, two weeks later, I found out the reason it was so perfect. It's because he'd practised the speech, wording all of it on one of his exes.

18:23Outrageous. Hold on, hold on. He said the same speech? No. This girl's been with this boy for a long time. He's finally proposed. It was absolute perfection. And she's found out why it was perfection because he'd practised the proposal on one of his exes. What? But that's so weird, isn't it? Wrong hair, ran it past her for a woman's perspective. I'm a bit weirded out by it. I'm wearing the ring, I smile in the photos, and I keep thinking about the most romantic moment of my life was quality control by the woman before me. And I don't know if that makes him thoughtful or makes me second place in my own engagement.

19:02I don't even know what I'm asking, but maybe it's just whether I'm allowed to be upset about something that on paper worked, Jen. Oof. Well, I mean, that's a strange one, that, isn't it? I don't know. I don't know why you would do that. I just know my personality. I would flip. I think that would be a problem for our engagement. Our entire life. Yeah. That would go down well, would it? Imagine pretending to go down on one leave for another kill. I actually would think, imagine if he's actually thinking, because she could have dumped him and he could really have wanted to, you know, have the feeling of proposing to her, but he's got...

19:46God, it's even worse. Exactly. I didn't articulate that very well, but you know what I'm saying. No, I know what you're saying, yeah. It's not good at all, is it? What do you think? That's a rogue show that you've just threw in there. That didn't even cross my mind. Imagine he's, like, trying to... Or maybe he's trying to get one over on her and be like, this could have been you. whatever it is I don't know if he's or he could just be friends with her but that's dodge to me you call your mum or your sister or your aunt not your ex is there a hidden message in there is he saying like yeah this could have been you or you know he's oh the one that got away I just want to say these words to you and I don't even want to upset Jen by saying that by the way it's just kind of slipped out but I'd be fuming that I wouldn't be happy with that yeah I don't think that's I think you're within your rights to be a bit...

20:36What should she do then? I think she's so happy they've been together a long time. I think you need to do over. It's innocent. Give the ring back. Take two. Let's do that again. Yeah. Sorry, mate, but I understand why you did it. You get a pass on that one. Oh, is it quite sweet that he's practised it because it wants it to be perfect? There are so many different theories to this story. It depends what kind of... If you've got no... If you don't see a threat or there's, you know, they've both got their own thing going on. I still wouldn't like it. I'm trying to... Even if you do the do-over, it's still like a take-two in it.

21:11I think let's just do this again. What's a do-over? Just go like, all right, give us a ring back. Let's just brush that one under the carpet. We'll do it again next month. I'll surprise you. I think she needs to say to him, I'm just so disappointed because that was the perfect engagement. That was the most perfect proposal and I'm trying to work out whether it was sweet that you've practised it or there was something behind it. And if she puts it like that, she will instantly know just by looking at his face. I think they'll put it to bed. They'll work through this. Yeah. And smell it. Okay, Abby, Pete and R.

21:47John. Absolutely love the pod. Some of the things you say, like shabber and bonk beats, have become daily sayings in our flagship. I've never said bonk beats for a long, long time. Maybe we should. You should. Get them on later. Yeah, let's do it. I don't see nothing wrong. So with that said, I thought I'd share this with you. I got a new fella recently. We're a few weeks in and he's got a playlist for, you know, the Bonk Beat occasion. It's absolutely fine, except it's on shuffle and he won't turn the shuffle off. So it's all going lovely. I just think it's weird that people put music on to do it.

22:24Is that a thing? I think people do put music on. Then out of nowhere, the theme tune to a 90s kids show comes on because he's never cleared his phone and neither has acknowledged it. I remember the song that came on the other day, Moving Right Along by Kermit the Frog and the Muppets, and we carried on whilst it was playing in the background. I actually don't think this is a Bonk Beat playlist. I think it's just a playlist. Unless he had it, like, queued. It says here, and then same with the Postman Pat theme about 20 minutes later. So we're still going at it 20 minutes later. Also, who's got that in the playlist?

23:00It's happened three times now. with three different childhood shows. They've obviously got kids. No, it's just a new boyfriend. I can't tell if it's a Nick or the funniest thing that's ever happened to me. Pizza Nav, do you whack on any background beats these days? Or has a whole nest of kids absolutely screwed your spot by algorithm? Bong beat Beth. Bong beat Beth. What a shout. I don't understand why he's got those songs on his playlist anyway. He must have kids, otherwise there's something going on. He's got kids, obviously. You can have, for instance, most of the stuff that comes up now is like Olivia Rodrigo or...

23:36It's not Olivia. She was so 2020 gone. I know, when it moved on to Sienna Spyro. Oh, she's back. Who's the other one? Sienna Spyro. And who's the other one? Langley. Something Langley. No, the other one that Liv likes. Yeah, Olivia Dean. Olivia Dean. That's all over my Spotify now. This actually tees up my question that I had for you earlier. You've got Capybara. Capybara, Capybara, Capybara, Capybara. Oh, it's con. Or the other one, I get the old, what's the one at the moment? I love that Kahn song. The Bomb. Which one? The What's the Bomb one that I have at the moment. Oh, Jack likes Backbone, don't he?

24:10He loves Backbone, yeah. Backbone. I don't mind that. What's your question? I don't fancy getting Jiggy to Backbone. You ain't. You ain't. You ain't. You ain't. You ain't. Backbone.

24:24We should have a go, man. We try that one out. We report back. You could be a crowd shit. I'm a lyricist. No, I was thinking about Abby singing Shallow the whole time. I was chatting. I didn't get to sing it in Nashville. I was thinking, no, I was talking. I got thrown off the stage. Ari was telling me the story that they wouldn't let you sing Shallow. No. And we were saying, obviously Abby is dying to be a singer. So why doesn't she just release a Christmas album? No, John. Christmas album. Christmas album. I was thinking we could write a Christmas song, release it, a Therapy Crouch Christmas song, Abby and Peter.

24:57I'm hoping I'm going to, we can sing you one. this Christmas. Don't you reckon that's a shout? Well, I'm hoping... Abby and Crouchy for Christmas number one. Yeah, massive. Massive. But you can't sing. Yeah, but you can do a rap. I could be like Stormzy or something. I can rap. Like fucking... I can seriously rap. We'll put it in motion now. That's an ick. Why? It's a huge ick. What, that I can rap? I'm hoping that I'm going to sing with Lewis Capaldi at Elle's wedding. I know. Well, if you don't write me off completely... I've been late. Well, Sam Fender's going to be there and Lewis, so I don't know whether to do Rain It In with Sam or Shallow with Lewis.

25:36Why don't you do anything about this? No. No, they're not going to. They might have, actually. Of course they will. If you get them bladded, they'll get off and sing, won't they? Rain Me In, I love that Rain Me In. It's a perfect key for me as well. Absolute tune. Such a tune. He's a fabulous singer, Sam. And Lewis. I love them both. Who do you like the best? Well, I just, I do like Sam's tunes, you know what I mean? I'm a big fan. I think he's a British Springsteen. Oh, God. I do. I keep saying it, but I think he's got that kind of vibe. So you think James Arthur's more of Bruce Springsteen? No, I found Vendor's class.

26:10Oh, he is class. He's great. But Lewis's voice is insane. I think you'd compliment each other really well. I don't know who I'd go better with, Lewis or Sam. Or maybe we'll ask Ellie and Scott. They're on the pod. Yeah. Maybe we should ask Scott who we should sing with. Well, yeah. Are they coming on? It's your sister and her fella coming on. Yeah, it's the going to the chapel episode. Lovely. I can't sing. I've just had one whiskey and I'm pissed. No, joking. Okay, we'll move on right to Astrid Castle. Is that a place or a person? We had Astrid Castle last week. Is it Astrid Castle's person, right?

26:51Astrid Castle. Is she running again? Yeah. She says, hi, guys. I constantly have this inner urge to help everyone in safe situations. If there is someone in trouble, I cannot be keener to help. I don't know why I have this confidence, bearing in mind I'm not a paramedic or a trained psychiatrist. I literally cannot do enough for other people. Who else does this? Putting my own family second sometimes. Who else does this? Most every men get one of my husband's beers. Elderly person at a bus stop, they get driven home. Begging outside of a shop, yes, it's a full meal deal on its way. A &E two nights ago after handing out all my little boys lollipops to randoms, leaving him only with one.

27:33Yesterday, I overheard a man explaining to his wheelchair-bound wife that he would try and find a position for her to be placed where she could watch him and the kids on the ride. I immediately asked to push the said woman around so he didn't worry. I pushed her wheelchair around up and down hills, sweating profusely whilst gasping for breath, pretending it was no effort. I offered her drinks. I stood bent over her so she'd be shaded. And I tried not to speak as much as she said our conversation was tiring her. After an eternity, her family appeared down the chute whereupon the woman leapt up from the wheelchair and bounded forwards on a foot keen to get a photo with ease of a young athlete.

28:17Oh my God. At first I thought it was a miracle she could walk. But after an explanation, I realised the woman was more likely to be a hypochondriac than be ill. Basically, can you give me any tips not to care so much? No, because I'm exactly the same. Do you remember when I saw this little old lady struggling with like a Christmas tree? And I was like, come on, get in my car, sister. I'll take you home. Four trips I did. She had four trees. It was like 20 minutes each ago. So I had to go back.

31:11Like, just stop interfering. Yeah, but you know, you like to interfere. Do I? Well, a little bit. You're involved a lot. Well, my message from God was when I rescued the kittens and I thought I'd be bottle feeding them and then we got them on. Yeah. It was like attacking me on a daily basis. We were all scared. Yeah, about that. We all got scared to go in a garage. Did you see my kittens? I had visions of bottle feeding. You should see them now. You know, little baby kittens. You wouldn't believe what they look like now, Pete. Is the mum still with them? Yeah, she's been sterilised, the mum. The mum was only kitten herself.

31:46Jeez. I have sometimes offered to help people and then gone, why the fuck did I do that? Which is not kind of a good person, really, is it? Is it, I think? I don't know. You want to help people, but this is a point where there's to be a boundary at some stage, isn't it? Do you think? Yeah. Well, babe, I don't think we helped loads of people there, did we? No. You don't think? We didn't help loads of people. We didn't help anyone. Maybe we get that woman in. Maybe she can do a better job. Exactly. I think we did help. Yeah, well, you know, just not enough. I think they were long messages. No, they were more opinions.

32:26They wanted our opinion more than our solution, I felt. But anyway, I had a great time, and I got to catch up with my beautiful wife. And John? More next week. More next week? Yeah, it will be. Okay, bye. Cheers. Ask me anything. Sure, bye.

32:49Hey guys, it's Paige from Giggly Squad. Okay, can we all agree that hosting is so much fun? And I really do love it. Every weekend, it's come over for snacks, let's make dinner together, and somehow the second you put out a fruit platter, it seems that bugs show up before your friends do. This is why I have to have my Zeevo flying insect trap. You plug it in and you let it do all the work. It's specially designed blue and UV light attracts the bugs you didn't know you had. And wow, did we have a lot. Like house flies, fruit flies, gnats. And then with Zeevo, bam. Next thing you know, the pests are caught in the sticky cartridge and away from your yummy treats without any mess or strong odors.

33:29The best part is the design is actually sleek and curved. So it hides the bugs it catches, keeping them out of sight. And when the cartridge is full, you just grab the no mess tab, throw it in the trash, pop in a new cartridge, and then you're done. No mess, no stress. So whether you're hosting a dinner party or spending an afternoon baking treats with all your friends, and you want to focus on hosting and not constantly swatting at bugs, Zivo has you covered with 24-7 bug protection. Plug in a Zeevo flying insect trap so you can work smarter, not harder, and actually enjoy your time at home.
