Abby Clancy and Peter Crouch (with Ross) do a “Therapy Crouch” Q&A, mixing relationship advice with banter. The episode heavily features a debate about Oasis being the greatest band ever, plus listener questions on partner boundaries, social media posting, snooping, wedding timing, and cosmetic work.
Abby Clancy (model/TV personality; co-host), Peter Crouch (former England footballer; co-host), Ross (co-host; appears in a curly wig).
Oasis are argued as best band of all time (supporting Richard Ashcroft/Verve influence); relationship security should trump past grudges; social-media posting shouldn’t be used for “digital validation”; phone snooping is framed as a trust issue; cosmetic procedures are acceptable if they boost confidence.
a couple debating whether to attend a party where the partner’s cheating ex’s cousin will be present; a scenario about a partner’s group chat “top five women they’d cheat for”; “guilty” phone checking (“recently deleted”); Oasis concert interaction expectations; “spud gun show” and “stender” stag/hen-do ideas.

Vindaloo.
3:06Hello and welcome to the Therapy Crouch. Ask us anything with me, Abby Clancy. And me, I'm Peter Crouch. And who have we got? Oh, Ross, can you start laughing? Cilla Black. Is anybody here? Sorry. Get a little music starts at the pod there. How are we? So for the audience, for the audio listeners, our Ross turned up with a big curly wig on. How cool is this? I took a picture of this wig. I'm going to send it over to Peter so he can lob it on a sec. Oh, close. You just nearly knocked my bloody drink over there. It was almost bad. So I've been threatening to get a perm for about two. You don't need a perm.
3:44Have you got Kelly, eh? Yeah, I've got it. Come here, let me fix it. Hey, tell you what, P. That's not bad, you know. Let me look. Hey. You suit it? Hey. It looks good on me as well, I'm not going to lie. Oh my God. My mum thought I'd actually got a perm. She didn't know it was a wig. You look quite fit with that. I know, I would. You look a bit Italian. I want a daddy omelette. I want a daddy omelette. I want a daddy omelette out of my plates. You look fucking good. Straight in my basket. Hey, got a little gag that way and I whipped it out at the right time and it paid off. Crack on. Why could you sense the mood deteriorating?
4:25I just thought we were a little bit, yeah. Yeah. How are we going? We're great. All good. We're all paddled out. We've been having some serious paddle competitions. You said I'm good? Your improvement's been rapid. I think you're playing well. Yeah. I like your little outfit. Do you know what? I will give you this. You've done well on your summer holiday outfits from what I've seen. Oh, thanks. I know you'll pack up a long time. Where's this one from, babe? Oh, this is a little old Attico number. A little old Attico. Very nice. All the good stuff's the old stuff. You look a bit like a lolly ice.
4:58Do I? Do you know what I mean? Almost like an ice lolly. Fuck off, mate.
5:07Ice lolly. Very good. So we're all good. We're all happy. All happy. Still exercising. Still exercising. Hitting the gym every day. Hitting the gym, I remember it's bearing no resemblance on my body because of the amount of bread and bloody alley-o-ly I've been eating. Yeah. It's like... It's ruthless. It's suffering. Come on back. You know. But holidays are for enjoying yourself. Holidays for holidaying. Holidays for holidaying. And it's just been so nice being with the kids and going down to the beach of an evening and, you know, me in the water parks and Zoomerine while Pete's on the golf course and over his male bonding sessions.
5:43that he all of a sudden needs. Oh yeah, okay, okay. So yeah. I haven't said that. I've done a lot with the kids as well. Yeah, you have. You have. They're your kids, sister. Our kids. I've minded those kids. Those fucking kids. Those kids of yours. Your attitude is absolutely stinking lately. Really? You're turning into a chauvinist. What the hell is going on with this fly? It's because you're full of shit, Pete. Very good, girl. very good I like it I don't know why you think that I'm a male show just because I said to you once that it's nice sometimes for a male to bond with other males without his family I don't think that is a bad thing I've taken that personally and took major offence to that I don't think you should because you speak to your friends every day but who would you prefer to be with the boys or me?
6:36the boys there's a time for both see years ago you would have just said me anyway I'm not getting into this have you been getting on with the homework we spoke last week you said you were going to crack on with the homework we've done a bit we've done a bit Sophia's been doing her tutor she's good but Sophia's very studious and very hard working that other thing I've got Liberty she just runs away and won't do it hey how cute did she look on that Oasis outfit this morning I know gorgeous she's a little button here she doesn't look like Harley doesn't she the boys I'm just doing a bit of reading I think that's what all parents should do get a fun book we're reading Dog Man and I've got the David Walliams you know that monkey one he gave us monkey astronaut whatever it is oh yeah yeah yeah just a bit of that of a night tick them over very nice you know you just mentioned Oasis can I just say that how epic those gigs look by the way yep my mates went to both Cardiff nights the first ones and said it was just epic so me and Peter had a conversation about this yesterday I can't remember if you did or not I felt if I would have gone to Oasis and saw the minimal interaction between them.
7:44I know that they did do interaction, Peter, as we discussed, like they held their hands and they hugged when they came out. I would want a little bit more back and forth between them. They didn't speak to each other throughout the whole concert and go, all right, it's our kids, let's go. How do you know, though? Because they said they reported it and they didn't have any back and forth. What do you think of that? Because me and Pete disagreed. Well, I think it's the first show. They've got to find the feet. They're probably just going through the motions. They come on hand in hand. They left hand in hand.
8:11And, you know, they probably haven't even... I don't think that will have been a deliberate thing. No, I'm not even saying it was a deliberate thing. But the thing is, there's been a lot of pressure on Noel and Liam, like, regardless of what you think of them. I love them. I love them. Well, I love Liam. It's a huge... It's a huge deal. The whole world is talking about this. Yeah. They're probably nervous. They haven't been on stage together for, what, 20 years? Mm-hmm. And the barely... I just don't know. I would just like a bit of going alright kid what are you doing like you know like the shivering mic accent like imagine when you see the Beatles and Paul didn't speak to fucking John going oh what John are we going to play next John do you know what I mean you'd want a bit of that wouldn't you come on but they're not NSYNC I disagree with that they're Oasis they're not NSYNC they're also that's so true and it's like it's not their their job is to sing like they're not comedians they're not chat show hosts I want to see them come on stage with the attitude both all of them have got yeah come on and just blow people away and I genuinely think like I think this at the moment this is iconic and I think yeah I think it's iconic and I think Liam's vocals have been epic I heard that too very good because of these worries that his voice has got I saw him at Benneka see him a few years ago and I'll be honest with you he sounded like he'd been on the ciggies like a little bit and I was like thinking oh god that was five years ago imagine what he's going to be like now his voice from the videos I've heard have been amazing but we're going to go, aren't we?
9:37I think this will be a moment, right, where you can say you've been. I think this is that big, in my opinion. And I'm going to put my long neck on the line here and say that I think they are the best band of all time. No, disagree. That is where I am with it, all time. To see Richard Ashcroft first. Oh my God, Richard Ashcroft's a part of them! That's what I'm saying, right? I forgot about that. Like that, as a show... You're not interested. I don't know what more you need in life than that. Richard Ashcroft is possibly... His vocals are phenomenal. ...one of the best songwriters of our generation.
10:18I'm sorry, but... His vocals are sensational. So, Richard Ashcroft, you cannot say Oasis are better than the Beatles, mate. They don't pale in comparison. They're fucking set lists. They only did between 94 and 97. They didn't even make it into the North. They did one song, Little by Little, from the noughties. Little by Little. They've got a lot of trash. They've got a lot of trash, mate. Listen It's a massive call A massive call You're a fuck Better than the Beatles That's a fuck And our friend Andy Our friend Andy Andy Bell Oh yeah Andy from McGill He's playing He's obviously in So it would be great To go and support him I know I know He looked well as well Because I just love him More than anything How fabulous is he Yeah Proper sound fellow as well Oh my god I love him So we cannot wait to go I just need to go back on my statement there, right?
11:07But only because the only reason I'm saying that, right, is because I wasn't around Beatles mania. Yeah, it's nostalgic. The Rolling Stones were a little bit before my time as well. Yeah, yeah. Oasis was when Oasis was when I was in prime kind of teenage life and you have that hysteria around it and I've got that and now they're back and it's nostalgic to me and I think, yeah, there's an argument, obviously a huge argument that the Beatles Everything is subjective, Peter. Everything is subjective. And Rolling Stone. But it takes you back to... But for me, Oasis are the best band of all time. There's so many good bands.
11:42I respect your opinion. There's so many... I even bloody love Eternal. They had amazing songs. Do you remember Eternal? Yeah. I love Eternal. What about Bewitched? No, I hated Bewitched. Hated them. You know, Spice Girls. What about Il Diva? Did you love Eternal? You all about girl power? Nothing wrong with Eternal. Nothing wrong. Nothing wrong. I tell you, we've got TLC. Don't let go. Me and Clary love it, don't we? Was that Eternal? Yeah. Because we're just from En Vogue. It wasn't off work. That's not En Vogue. No. Eternal. There's been some There's been some There's been some There's been some mega bands but what I think what Pete's saying is that just brings them back to a time of his life.
12:21Favourite band Favourite band I love. Best band You two? Coldplay? Fuck off, you two. Best band No, Beatles, obviously. Yeah, no, but there's loads, isn't there? There is loads and do you know what? I'm taking the piss. I'm playing I'm in a knob there. My only disagreement with that is... Did you say five? No, not five. The Jackson five. Fuck it up, five. I would put on Oasis more than I'd put on the Beatles. As would I. As would I. That's what I'm saying. And I think... So is that not... I probably... In my opinion, I love the Eagles. They're my favourite band. Oh, Eagles are phenomenal. I wouldn't say...
12:57They're my personal favourite band, even over the Beatles, but I wouldn't say they're a better band than the Beatles because of the legacy that the Beatles left. The legacy of the Beatles. Oasis do not exist about the Beatles. That's a fact. Yeah. So, there we go. Yeah, true. Trailblazers, In The Road Right, incredible songs, songwriters, amazing. I just, you know, I've never met Richard Ashcroft. I've always wanted to meet him. Me neither. I've been so close on so many occasions, but yet so far. What was his band again? Verve. Verve, yeah. That Urban Hymns is one of the best albums of all time.
13:29We should listen to them today. Of all time. Is that him? When he's walking down the street, Oh my God. Yeah, yeah. Bittersweet symphony. It's the most iconic picture of him. Oh my God. Was it David Bailey who took that picture of him? David Bailey. Do you know there was a... Oh my God, he was absolutely gorgeous as well when he was young. Oh my God. When he was young? Yeah, no. Well, he wasn't. They all... Have a look at him now. But they all had a very unique look. Like Liam Gallagher. Very unique. Very Northern. Richard he was very Mick Jagger the huge lips the curly hair absolutely gorgeous you don't see people a bit like some of them do they people don't look like that do they well the styles have changed haven't they they don't have those faces very very unique I saw some something you know obviously there's there's this thing about like you don't like Oasis because you were too young you know that and I'm not disagree with that a little bit I'm not one of those people I get it everyone can enjoy it but I did see sang at one of the gigs where Ashcroft was playing and someone had videoed behind a young girl Shazamming Bittersweet Symphony.
14:38Oh, piss. Shazamming it. That's embarrassing. I said, for me, you can't... Get out the concert. You shouldn't be at that gig if you're Shazamming Bittersweet Symphony. It's an... It's a bitters... Anthem. It's a biblical anthem. I think people like that do not deserve tickets. You can't be Shazamming Bittersweet Symphony. No, people... Oh, I like this one. Yeah. I wonder what the hell that is. Siri Siri who is the weekend Siri who sings Blinder by the Light I don't want to be one of those people I don't want to be one of those people no you're not no no no but it was funny though like because Pete's friends have been there and they sent the videos and it is dads dancing it is dads it's a lot of pot-bellied dads and I'm not including my friends in that Nick if you're listening
15:32love you Nick I love my Nick he's so great yeah but we can't wait to go what's your favourite Oasis song? Cast No Shadow do you know what I mean? I like Talk Tonight Live Forever yeah that's a good one obviously an anthem I love Live Forever but I've had to I think Cast No Shadow when I'm in that kind of mood but do you know what I mean for me is the one oh yeah which one? do you know what I mean? yeah do you know what I mean Liam's vocals are the best aren't like I don't know he's just a but the lyricism of Noel he's just yeah I could talk about it all day he's very talented do you know what I mean I'm a fuck out of you mate I'm going to talk about this all day Noel is very very talented but Liam is a superstar that's the right phrase he is a superstar he's a je ne sais quoi even now he's got the je ne sais quoi he's done a load of his solo stuff and all that that stage presence he has it obviously but not as Liam's I thought Noel's vocals were fantastic I did as well actually but some people some people are born like that it's like my son Jack yeah he can put a rag on and just look so cool yeah do you know what I mean yeah yeah he wears the wackiest things like gold change bloody boxing gloves out here right he's had his hair braided he's got braids braids all over his head he went to decathlon bought these gloves he just throws a t-shirt and he just looks cool as hell.
16:57Even though you had them trainees on and if I wore them trainees they're moody as fuck. If I came in and they'd be in with them trainees on you'd go Ross what the frigging hell are you wearing? Those Nike trainers that I got with their looms yellow. They're a bit lime green aren't they all yellow? But they're tennis trainers they're not real trainers but yet they are a bit But if I came in you'd go fucking they're a bit moody wouldn't you? But he looked all right. What I love about him is like he's got like no he's not bothered at all. this is what I'm wearing and you go like Jack I don't think you should wear that he's like joking unreal I think that's such a gift that and unfortunately with children that disappears as they get older yeah because you said to me as well Sophia like she was like had their own little sense of style and then she got older and then she just wants to wear the North Face what will my friends think if I wear that which is normal you want to sip it in of course it's normal the worst thing for a teenager is to stand out good point yeah right should we get this bloody pot sorry yeah we're just having a gabby Ask me anything.

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.
19:42No mess, no stress.

And if you want to pass it on to someone who you think might like this content, you're welcome to do so. Do it now. Ask me anything. Help! Am I being unreasonable? Oh, sounds like it.
20:23Or is my partner? Setting the scene, my partner's ex cheated a long time ago and he doesn't like one of their family relations who is a mutual friend of the family. We've been invited to a party where the family relation to the ex will be there with their partner who I have actually met without knowing and thought they were lovely. We're due to go to the gathering where they will possibly be there and now he doesn't want to go. Hang on. It's a bit complicated. Hang on. So his ex-girlfriend cheated on him. Yeah. And he doesn't want to see this family member. So it's like, you know, me and John.
20:56You know, John's got a weird relationship with his ex-bird and now I'm going to bump into his new bird type of thing. It's a bit of a weird way of thinking. Yeah, we're due to go. Now he doesn't want to go. But if I put my foot down and say it's nothing to do with me, why shouldn't I be able to go? So she's met the family relation. unbeknownst to her and gone, you know, bumped into her having a coffee, whatever. Oh, isn't this lovely girl? And then she's, I'm assuming, introduced into the fella and he's gone, that's thingy's fucking cousin and I don't like her. Don't introduce me to her. Am I being unreasonable and not supportive of my partner or is he just being hung up on the past and coming across like a school kid?
21:37Love the pod, can't wait for the next episode and put the normal in life's relationship dramas. I think life's too short for all that pettiness. I think if again if you're secure in your own relationship the past is in the past you're here for a reason this is the now get on with it go to this party be pleasant to everyone because you know there's a there was this study done on what makes people popular and they went to like big unis in America and what all the popular people had in common is that they liked a lot of people yep and I just thought that's so bang on isn't it so bang on I think when we said ages ago like being cool is not being worried about being cool the coolest thing to do is not being worried about being cool exactly because if you go oh do you know Sarah down the road oh don't like her oh do you know Chris up the street oh don't like him but if people go oh yeah he's great yeah he's a nice guy do you know what I mean have an eclectic mix of friendships yeah yeah I think that kind of scenario is you've just got don't be a drag don't be a drag man don't be a drag Don't be a drag man I'm going to Oasis now If you're negative Pete's got the shades on Don't be a drag man If you're negative Agreed You breed negativity Agreed, agreed, agreed Just be positive Yeah You know like Let's be upbeat about things Do you think I'm negative?
23:01Can be, yeah Yeah But there's a difference Well not on that That's not me being nasty I think you catastrophise Yeah I do catastrophise Which is negative But there's a difference Between negative And caring And wanting things done properly because I think people because I am so nice as well take the piss yeah and then I complain I think you're anal I think you are a little bit anal when I talk about your negativity right I'm working on it no I think the negativity I'm talking about is a kind of elite mentality the best players I played with football players were never happy yeah because they never settled and I think that is genuinely how your mentality is you're all right rather than Calagas when they come off the piss I'm not elite at anything then?
23:44No, but I think you've got that an elite mentality. I'm wasted. I'm wasted. No, I agree with that. That's not like an attack on you being like, you're a negative Nelly. It's not that. It's like, it's a good thing. Jose Mourinho vibes in it. I'm not a drag to be around, bloody hell. If he was, I wouldn't hang around with you. Exactly. Everyone, all my friends love me. That's what I'm trying to say. I'm trying to pay you a compliment. They do? I'm trying to pay you a compliment. No, we're all agreeing with each other. I'm trying to pay you a compliment.
24:13I cried last night because she loved me so much. Yeah. Or was she pissed? No, she wasn't pissed. She was cramered. She was cramered. We cry how much we love each other. That knocks me south. If my mates are crying about how much you love me, mind you that. Even Kaz and Alfie, we all love each other so much. And I've never ever slagged my mates off. No, I haven't either. That's why you're the mates. We slag strangers off. Yeah. No, but some people do slag the mates. like those three girls who were on there oh my white lotus white lotus like that's just so unusual to me that must happen wasn't it oh yeah absolutely right next question sorry we'll have a gap here what did we say about that so go to the wedding go to the party get over there get dollied up go to the party be nice to everyone yolo I'd tell you fella to grow up yeah I don't agree totally with that if I'm honest okay go on then I don't want to stick my fucking two pennies in but he's not happy, right?
25:13His ex cheated on him. He's heartbroken. And it hurts him to go and see this person. I think that... I think if the ex, that's fair enough, but the ex is frigging cousin or whatever. Also, if he's not... I still think it's a conversation. I don't think it's like, shut up and go there. Okay, do you know what? That's fair, that's fair. I agree with that. If he's still bothered about his ex, as the new girlfriend, I would be like, why do you care that your ex-girlfriend, do you want to still be with her, do you? Well, go on then. You know where the door is, But by the way, he cheated on you. She cheated on you, so she didn't like you anyway.
25:45But I think that's all I'd say in that. But in reality, you do have feelings connected to people. Fair enough. Crack on. Next question. Okay. I'll just stay in and get a takeaway. Make love.

He's an older guy, how do you mean? Yeah, he's Bond, isn't he? Something about Bond.
28:31She liked him in that Irish, in that mob land. No, older men. I'm digging them She's got a thing for paddies as well Yeah Yeah Salt and pepper I'm 29 He's 55 But wears linen shirts Great age And has that George Clooney Salt and pepper thing going on Yeah And makes a mean lasagna We shared a moment Over a bottle of Rioja At barbecue Now I can't stop thinking about him Help Dirty Dirty girl Dirty bitch No I There are some attractive older men I don't think it's I don't think it's the age thing I think we can all agree it does attract all the men and women but it's the fact that she best meets dad no that's a hell no yeah that's an absolute hell to the no try and think if I've ever fancied one of my mates dads have you?
29:20not his dad's have you ever fancied one of your mates mums when you were a little boy yeah yeah big time didn't you fancy one of your mates sisters though? we all did yes we all did both of them
29:37you dirty tongue we were about nine I used to fancy my mate Charlotte brother Fraser I used to love him and try and kiss him and I used to say to him Fraser can we play Jasmine and Aladdin you're Aladdin and I'm Jasmine I can show you the world and he'd be like no and then just batter us he hated me he'd full on battered us and I used to fancy him Fraser will you marry me when I grow up no so funny He regrets that Yeah yeah yeah No I bet he doesn't
30:12Ross you're so You're alright aren't you With the table in between us Feeling quite brave I'm going to push you In that pool in a minute Hi both Do you believe in snooping On your partner's phone Yes she does We've already discussed Guilty Recently deleted you go with mine as well can I just say something he did confirm on the pod the other day he did confirm so all this flack that I'm getting he does exactly the same thing but it's not in it's not in a like mistrust way I just get information that Pete withheld with holds from me like a planned golf trip for example which you'll leave to the day before or you know plans plans I'm making and I just want to know goss because Pete's very tight lipped drives me mad yeah Loose lips Sink chips Me and Lucinda Always trying to get goss out of him And he will never Ever spill He's tight as a duck's ass Drives me mad That is in my opinion A good friend I think so as well But I If you told me something Said don't tell anyone You know that you can trust me with that Yeah but I I can't do that I'm a gabber I'd have to tell someone Really you're not You're very tight lipped No I'm not I wouldn't say You never tell me any goss Yeah because you already You give me the goss And I just sparse from you what cost you want to hear from me from Hot Girl Fridays you say I can't no I can't tell you because I'm not getting involved and stuff like that oh yeah you never tell me stuff if someone said to me don't tell anyone I'd definitely tell you that's not no within reason if it was like a life or deathy thing but a little cheeky bit of goss oh yeah I fancy Idris Elba you're going to tell him aren't you do you know what I mean like not you fancy him like if your meds said like I'm fancying Idris Elba what the hell No, it'd be like, oh, guess what?
32:00Such and such did this. I'd be like, ooh, Pete, guess what? Copped off at Idris Elba. What is Idris Elba? Why is he in the conversation? Why the fuck is Idris Elba in this? Idris Elba. In this combo? I thought he was going to be Bond anyway. Yeah, I was just thinking that. That's the main one he was in my head. Is that why? Yeah, he said he's a bit too old. Too old? He said that about himself, not me saying that. I think that's bizarre when like married, people who've been married for like 15 years don't know each other's passcodes. I think, I think like... It's a level of trust though. Yeah, but there is, there is this thing.
32:38I do, there's a lot of people like that. Like I'd like to know what people think of this. Like knowing your, is it an invasion of prison privacy or is it just what... An open book. Yeah, like everything is open, certainly in our relationship. No doors are shut. No, like it's not, I mean like no, our phones, my phone everything's just shared isn't it? I think we're almost kind of the same person we're one I don't understand how you I don't understand how you don't know what was that on your arm? it's a tattoo Jack put it on me it's just like the guns spud gun
33:29Don't even get that out Peter's feeble Feeble What are you killing there Oh man I've got tits But I'm fucking out It's terrible I think both of you Need to get down The bloody gym Okay now Oh good punter Good punter Okay what we say If you had an arm that long You'd fucking struggle as well Yeah yeah yeah My fiance left his open On the kitchen side and I had a peek. Nothing dodgy, but there was a group chat with his mates rating their top five women they'd cheat for and apparently I didn't make the cut. Is that a red flag or just harmless lad banter? It's not harmless. Why would she make the cut?
34:08Because he's not going to cheat for his missus, is he? I don't know what that means. Why would she make the cut? I thought it'd be like, what's her name, Megan Fox or something like that, wouldn't it? Idris Elba. For starters, I don't think she's got that scenario correct one of Pete's group chats is a picture of one wife's breasts which I think is outrageous is it a nipple or no it's covered they're in a dress but I was just like what the hell is that is it good rack though good rack well there you go it's all about Paul I think is he in the group yeah he's in the group it's not like behind his back everyone went your missus is fit and banged it straight on the on the group thing I'd take that what do you think about me I mean there's group chats with you well I'm sure there's plenty of group chats with you definitely they exist I'm Peter I'm Peter as well yeah does that 6 for 5 group chats has no I've been trying to get you in oh yeah 6 for 5 and only you've got to be above 6 for 5 to get into it I want to be in there he's their messiah him and Stephen Merchant messiah yes there's like 2 ,000 people on this over 6 for 5 group chat god that's seriously it's hard to get into it you've got to get it with a person yeah but that one of the girls who we were trying to set up on a date that was on her wish list wasn't it six up five or was that my wish list yeah I thought yours was hung like a frigging donkey yeah six up five and hung like a donkey no we could get her a guy on there yeah but yeah back to the original question I think you've got that wrong so I wouldn't feel offended about that about not being on that list How would you feel if you went on my phone and there was a discussion on who we would cheat on our husbands for?
35:55Would you be happy with that? Not at all, no. What would you do? What would you say and how would you feel? What the fuck are you talking about all that for? Oh, is that what you're saying? Yeah. Is that what you'd say? I thought you were saying it. What are you talking about? That's what I'd say. Yeah. But I don't think she should feel offended by the fact she wasn't in it because that's not the question. No, I think surely they should be like your whole past vibes. It's basically like a top five hall pass. Yeah, yeah. And it's only just... I literally wouldn't worry about it at all. Lorraine Kelly's.
36:27See, that would have bothered me years ago. Now I'm like... Fuck off on you. Would not care. Give it up on me now. No, not for that. It's just childish, I mean. Doesn't matter. Yeah. Hi, Abby, Pete and R. Ross. If you had to describe your relationship as a type of food, what would it be and why? Ooh, carbonara. Ketchup, pepe. Why? Cheesy, tasty. fulfilling. That was good off the bat, mate. To be really, I'm refreshed by that. Wow. Yeah. That was good. And I could eat that every day. Yeah. Wow. That's possibly the most romantic thing you've ever said to me. I was going to say turd in the hole. No, I mean, I literally could eat that, but I couldn't because it's so fattening.
37:13But yeah, I could. It's my favourite pasta. Very good. That was good. Wholesome, fulfilling, tasty Homemade Peter, do you have a follow up? Do you have a riposte? I think it would be like a vindaloo
37:35You're just a horror Horror bag I'm watering Give me diarrhea Spicy, exotic Tasty I'm not exotic though, am I? Yes, you are. I'm a Scouse mouse. Come on. You just came out with that so quick. I know. How good was that? Because mine's true. If you speak from the heart, it's always good. Well, I think he was a little bit on the end of that message. Well, she said mine would be a McDonald's apple pie. Oh, I love that. Looks sweet, always burns you, and somehow gives you the ick.
38:19I love an apple pie I know McDonald's apple pie Oh My mum's fella John Moss He always goes I'll have a hot apple pie From McDonald's And it gives me the ick The way he says Hot apple pie I'll have a hot apple pie From McDonald's He's going to get A cold apple pie You know it's boiling You can't get a cold one then I'll have a hot apple pie Hot apple pie That is annoying Isn't it That's why it's annoying I'll tell you what's more annoying When you get a freaking cold cold Big Mac and then burn your mouth on a bloody apple pie yeah it's nuclear something about an apple pie you can have it it can get nuclear in there can't it they deep fry them I love them me too you failed dramatically I failed badly you just didn't want to upstage you because you did so well I just want you to say something nice okay I'm trying to think just think of a dish that's a tough question fucking vindaloo vindaloo describe your relationship as a food vindaloo vindaloo Pete no spicy's nice I think spicy, caliente.
39:16I think spicy, I read spicy as aggressive and antagonistic. No, you took that the wrong way. I'll have to come back to that one. I think that's a good question. Tune in next week for Peter's Answer. Yeah, yeah, I'm going to think about that and come back with a relationship food. Onion full of layers. Chachi, GPT. Chachi, GPT. Chachi what? GPT. Do you think there's such a thing as getting married too young? My boyfriend's 24 and talks about rings. Meanwhile, I still don't know what I want for tea tonight, never mind the rest of my life. Yeah, too young. I don't know. I do think they're too young.
40:00How old were you guys? I was 23. All right. I forgot that. Do you know what? I wouldn't advise my daughter to do it, but it's worked for us. Yeah. so you were 30 when you got married yeah I thought that was perfect that's old actually I was so heavy with that and I think people are getting younger sorry I think people are getting married later these days I think it's a ridiculous expense and I don't think there's any point in it to be honest okay no I don't think it's like the be all and end all I think you'd rather get a house first for a young couple it's such a waste of money I know it's such It's a special and fabulous day, but it's such a waste, especially nowadays.
40:45I think, yeah, I think there should be something a little bit easier, but especially in these times, like people are struggling to get houses to live. It's hard. The cost is, it's an expense that it's a bit, I feel, I feel... What do you motivate to be on that as well? Like at that age? It's nice to be married, but surely it's better to get a house and get on a property ladder. If I didn't have that... Pretty enough.
41:14Sorry.
41:18I was about to say wedding. We could have had like, I could have had bloody stables in my garden. That's what I was going to say, Ross, you little bugger. We want freedom. Is it a red flag if your partner never posts you on social media? Hell yeah. Or is that me being desperate for digital validation? I'm not asking for a hard launch, but the man's stories are just pints, dogs and his car. Scream single man. I think if you're thinking that much about it, it's not authentic. If you have a nice picture with your boyfriend or girlfriend, post it. If you don't, don't. I think if it's a conscious decision whether to post somebody or not, it's the wrong decision.
42:05Yep. I I don't post you on social media or my children you bloody posted me you posted me the other day with the recent post yeah but like not often that's what I'm saying you're not a big social media guy really are you as a non-amai yeah but Pete we do a bloody podcast which is filmed weekly I know twice a week it comes out Mondays and Fridays I think Tuesdays and Thursdays Thursdays Tuesdays and Thursdays what I'm trying to say is like I don't consciously leave you off it yeah I just don't I don't like post like you're more with lifestyle wise I don't want to post my life really much and that is something you know but you know we post this every week and that's enough that's a snapshot yeah well I think people know I'm with you but the thing is though you're also in the you're also in the public eye if that makes sense I suppose for you being a guard and your privacy is more important than the Joe public like ourselves do you know what I mean who kind of want to broadcast your private life a little bit I don't know.
43:05Do you know what I mean by that? You must be the most famous man who's never been seen. Well, I've been seen by people. Other than Stig. He's like the Stig, isn't he? Stig of the dub. Stig of the dub.
43:20Stig in a beer on a bit. Do you know what I mean by that? Like, normal people want to kind of, you know, oh my God, I went to this beautiful place or da-da-da-da-da-da. Whereas if you're always in the public eye, you kind of want to be a bit more reserved, I suppose. Yeah, great. Yeah, I just think he might just be a bloke a bloke yeah and I think I don't think you need to read too much into it but I just don't think you need to be on social media to validate your relationship I really don't fair comment good point well mate yeah hi Ab hey do you think men should be encouraged to get cosmetic work done more openly my husband's considering a bit of a tweakage but keeps pretending he just has a really good night cream.
44:04Do you know what? I just think do what you want. Do what makes you happy and you know self-care has advanced now. It's not just about putting a face cream on. There's polynucleotides. People are injecting hydration into the face. If it makes you feel more confident and makes you feel good about yourself, why not? I think. Do it. Do it. The quality in it. Yeah. A friend of mine's husband had a lipo the other day. Did he? Yeah, it feels great. He had a stubborn pouch that you couldn't couldn't get rid of a what? stubborn pouch what's that? yeah I wonder what you said then a stubborn pouch a beer gut?
44:40yeah yeah so he got it sucked out who cares so what now he feels fantastic oh my god that's the new word for it class leave my stubborn pouch alone he's putting his stubborn pouch alone you've got a full six pack there because I was watching you and you're playing paddle like proper ripped I'm doing alright to be fair doing alright with six pack I've got a bloody stubborn pouch after this trip anyway guys stay safe, enjoy and keep listening I'll see anything who's got that video of me shabbering one of the kids today leave it cut
45:22hey 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 Zivo, 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.
46:03The 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 Zivo flying insect trap so you can work smarter, not harder, and actually enjoy your time at home. Cha-ching!

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, Peter Crouch and Abbey Clancy are back in full holiday spirit, bringing sunshine, sass, and serious opinions. From padel battles and cool fashion choices to the return of Oasis and a heated debate on the Gallagher brothers’ legacy, this episode is packed with chaotic charm.
Abbey weighs in on why she’s team Richard Ashcroft (and not B*Witched), while Peter boldly declares Oasis the greatest band of all time (cue the chaos). The duo share their summer holiday highlights, gym struggles (bread vs. biceps), and offer up life advice to a listener whose boyfriend can’t let go of his cheating ex’s cousin.
If you’re here for banter, brutally honest relationship advice, or to just hear Pete get roasted, you’re in the right place.
