3:15is. I can't believe that was the question you gave me to read.

3:22Hello and welcome to the Therapy Crouch. Ask me anything with me, Abbey Clancy. I'm BP Crouch. And me guys. Hey guys. Good. How are you doing? Good. Yeah, very good. Very good. You guys having good weeks? Good weeks. Yeah. Good weeks. Productive. Indian summer, as Pete said yesterday. It would be nice, wouldn't it?

3:41You've not heard Indian summer before? No, Pete was cut Oh, the shower, there's a towel on. I'm loving this Indian summer. What are you talking about? What does that mean, actually? I was freezing this morning, hence the black hole in egg. I don't actually know the history behind it. Yeah. Shall we have a look? Yeah, shall we? Yeah, so the term Indian summer, which you didn't know, it's obviously about unusually warm, dry, sunny weather in autumn. It originated in North America in the 1700s. Originated? Originated. the exact reason for the word Indian isn't certain. Early American writers associated weather phenomena with Native American lands, seasons or activities, but historians have proposed several different explanations.

4:23In Britain, we adopted the expression later, so if we see suddenly 20 to 25 degrees sunshine in late September or October, after it started feeling autumnal, people would refer to it as an Indian summer. Lovely. Do you know they found Noah's Ark?

4:41So I just can't believe what you're saying to me. But is that not just a made up story? Well, I thought it was. I thought it was just a myth. But they found Noah's Ark. Where have they found it again? Noah's Ark. The biblical tale. So it says here, no, the discovery of Noah's Ark. No, they found Noah's Ark. No discovery has been confirmed. There have been many claims, particularly around Mount Ararat in eastern Turkey. which has traditionally been associated with the ark. Researchers and explorers, possible unusual formations, wood and material, intriguing ground-penetrating radar results. Yeah, they've unearthed Noah's Ark.

5:27So the land has formed around what would have been the shape of the ark. As it says, yeah, a boat-shaped geological feature near a rat gets a lot of attention. Most geologists who have examined it regard it as a natural rock or earth formation rather than a fossilised ship. So the distinction is important. People have found things they believe could be Noah's Ark. Like two giraffe skeletons? I mean, I don't know if it was actually going on two by two. But, yeah, I'm actually going to be a flood. So you're telling me I wasted a whole day on the phone to Lucinda with this? Talking about the Ark.

6:03I had the aliens. The aliens are coming all day yesterday and they found Noah's Ark. So they haven't found Noah's Ark? I didn't think it existed. Two of every species. That's like something like 18 billion animals on one boat. Can I just voice note Lucinda? Because I want the response from this little witch. I spent half a day of my life looking at this yesterday. Noah's Ark and aliens. You're like a stoner. Hey, Luce, you know, they haven't found Noah's Ark at all. What the hell? It's just a geological earth formation. It's a conspiracy theory, so thanks for that. So thanks for that. So, I mean, I just...

6:46But why is it just... People have known about it all this time. Why is it headline news? No, I think what they're saying is that, you know, there's potential for... It looks like a large wooden structure, which could be a boat. I had the whole day I say, don't touch an alien if you see one, because you'll die. Really? What are we on about? What kind of a conversation? She was like, all the germs, they've got germs you haven't got, you've got germs they haven't got, they'll die and you'll die. So you can't touch them. Yeah, well, that's when E.T. was here and he couldn't breathe, could he? Oh, I love E.T.

7:19He couldn't breathe, could he? Do you want to ask me some real shit? Because I'm sick of these conspiracy theories. I mean, that's the best 10 minutes of my life, that. I don't know where we went. I reckon, her and Lucinda, I reckon they talk that much that they finally get on like Noah's Ark and Aliens, you know? do you know if you talk that much you will get around to no stone left on stage i think i speak to her for seven hours a day no joke joke like it's never off so because she lives in ibiza and i live in the uk and i miss her i know i get it but i i i need to hear her voice i go in um so i'll i said i've got half hours rest here she'll go and lie on the bed i don't lie on my bed anymore no i go to one of the kids bedrooms don't know if you noticed that Yeah, I did.

8:03And I lie down and I can still hear in loudspeaker in my bedroom on the phone. Yeah. The aliens are coming. So imagine if I was sitting there trying to rest in my bedroom. What are you resting for? Fucking resting. I had half an hour to chill before I go out and do stuff again. Give it a rest. You need to give it a rest. That's the problem. I still manage to get all my shit done, but I'm just on the phone. We did our tarot reading this morning. I've never heard She did my tarot Why is it on loudspeakers my issue? Because I don't want to get like radiation It's loudspeaker like full blast Full blast You did a tarot reading this morning You got yours done At least you did it for me Oh really?

8:51What was the outcome? I haven't read it yet because I'm here I can't wait to read it I know hers But my issue is It's from Chachi PT Okay so it was extremely relevant to her life it was like you know psychic level or is that you know it was like you know there's travel you're going to move here you're going to move there but you know her daily conversation with her husband is you know we're moving here we're doing this we're doing that you know talking about the kids and because it was like you've got three kids or blah blah blah whatever and i was like is this true or is this you know is it a widget is it called a widget yeah where a cookie is it a cookie depends what you're on about where your phone listens to you oh that's a cookie that's a cookie because i'm like you know it's so spot on and a few of our friends have done it so spot on to you to their lives you know is surely that's just your phone listening to your conversations yeah i'm convinced of that the things you get served up and the ads and things it's all about yeah there's no doubt i know is that yeah uh babe do you want to start asking questions.

Availability and coverage vary by state and insurance plan. Hey, Abs, Pete and Gaz. I've recently come back from a lad's holiday from Ibiza and had to share this story that happened to me. I was dancing with my mates at O Beach and we lost one of our friends to the dance floor and thought nothing of it until we were all reunited an hour later.

12:38Well, when he sees me, he came back and greeted me by ruffling my hair, stroking my face, doing that baby lip wobble thing on my lips. And I thought it was odd at the time, but just assumed he was on drugs. And we carried on our night. Well, it came out later that he wasn't on drugs. What he had done is far, far worse. He'd done a bit of heavy petting on the dance floor with a stranger, ruffled my hair with some slightly sticky fingers, if you're catching my drift. When I found this out, I was absolutely horrified at the thought. So I lobbed a drink over him, a frozen strawberry marguerite, if you want to know, and thought that would be the end of the beef.

13:20However, we got into a heated argument and then we got kicked out of Obeach and it ruined the last day of our holiday. How do we tackle this once and for all? Any advice? Love the pause. Daz. What's Daz short for? Darren? Darren, yeah. Wow. You put Gaz isn't short for Garen. That's a good point, yeah. Yeah. Or Dary. Dary. You can be called Dary. It's like Baz is short for Barry. But Gaz isn't short for... That's a good point. Well, you know, this is a horrible situation. I can't believe that was the question you gave me to read. I had no pre-warning. I didn't know. What's his name? I didn't know that.

14:03What's his name from Anchorman? Yeah, you're just reading it. Oh, yeah, just reading the autocues. What's his name, Joe Lumberg or something? Ron Burgundy. Ron Burgundy. Oh, yeah, yeah. Yeah, okay. Well, I don't know what you do there. It's just a scenario. I just don't know what you do with it. that's quite in betweener-esque to me that's coming back isn't it does it yeah new one with the same people yeah i wonder if it'll age well or if it's firmly in the past you know that kind of laddie humor i think you'll be all over it guys it was funny i remember watching that for the first time i had no idea what it was it just came on channel four ever just like oh my god it was great that wasn't it so good oh did you go to the cinema to see the films when they came out as well because it was quite a moment in time the in-betweeners one and two in the cinema did you go I can't remember us going to the cinema to see it I think we watched it at home I think we did as well yeah fair play I don't know what you do with that mate I think you just you just have it out and say look mate that was stuff what you were out of order there what you did and I shouldn't have thrown a thing at you you shouldn't have thrown the drink but I think no one wants um strangers gems in their mouth very nicely put very well put It's just not for me at all.

15:19I think it's childish and the pair of them need to grow up. That's disgusting. I'm doing that in public. But let's block him from the therapy group. It wasn't him. He got it done to him. Yeah, he was used like a tea towel. Yeah. It was his mate. Oh, my God. Disgusting. I think you're forgetting that I'm a girl in here, you know. Sorry. Sometimes do forget that. Apologies. You're one of the lads as well. Two abs, Pete, and black undies. I need you to help a brother out. I was having a debate with the missus the other day about various gym workouts. We got competitive. I said she can't do my workout, and she said I can't do hers.

15:58So I accepted the bet, took her on classic chest back, the bicep, in which, to be fair, she did pretty well. But then this led us on to her workout, Pilates. To be honest, I thought it was just going to be a bunch of stretching and a load of gossiping, but I was completely wrong. About halfway through, I started panicking. I could barely breathe. I was in agony and I wanted it to end. I thought the instructor had caught on and was going to tell me to get some fresh air. But instead, she came and started correcting my form with every move I did. It was fucking agony. She corrected me so much. As I stretched my legs, I pulled my adductor and squealed a high note similar to the one Prince makes at the end of Purple Wayne.

16:38Can I just say, it's a massive ick when people name the muscle they've pulled. I just can't. The adductor. Where is the adductor? Don't like it. It's there. It's not here, isn't it? Yeah. Is it? Oh, right. Okay. I took you to Pilates once and Pete was too big for the thing. Too long for the machine. For the reformer. That was an embarrassing moment. You got away scot-free then, did you? Well, no, I just kind of did it, didn't I? But it was pretty uncomfortable. And you kept getting pushed into positions. Yeah, she pushed me into positions a lot. I couldn't take the embarrassment. I am so stiff.

17:10Are you? So stiff. I couldn't take the embarrassment, so I left the room with my girlfriend being very supportive. but she's definitely not letting it go anytime soon. So a question for Pete, as a professional athlete, what exercises would you recommend to help stretch your reductor quad area in general? Regardless to your family, Alfie. Well, he's asking the wrong person there. I'm so stiff. Do you the worst stretcher? I'm so stiff. You like a back roller, don't you? I love a back roll and I love the roller, the foam roller. So all the way up your back. I feel like I'm just getting even longer.

17:44I go back like a diplodocus a diplodocus I have so when you when you roll it out it's just so nice I did the most incredible stretch position on one of those foam rollers in Portugal and you can't do it no way you go back on your legs I can't do that I can't do that like you do it on your knees that position yeah and the back the foam roller underneath it and then you lie on it put your legs back oh my god it was like heaven Pain, pleasure and pain in ones Pleasure and pain Yeah Hurt so good I do one where like It's kind of like the nerves in your back Where you stretch your legs out And you put your arms behind your back And like Put your chin on your chest That one feels like It feels like it goes right down the nerves Really?

18:31Yeah, it's good Is it good? Very good I think taking care of your fascia is a good one Fascia? Yeah So it's like It's like the mesh of your muscle basically if you protect that so with massage and rollers and you get like these sticks that you roll down like a stick like a it's almost like a hook isn't it yeah and you can if you keep that supple then you will not have injury so our friend Ricky's a professional physio for football clubs oh wow okay and one of the clubs he was at had like no injuries because he was like one of the first people to like um take care of the fascia fascia but even for like if you want lift in your face you know if you if you massage your fascia it'll your fascia how are we spelling fascia do we know f-a-c-i oh okay like fascia okay okay oh amazing oh there you go that's really handy i've never heard of that in my life and also what is a good little one for bad posture is if you go in the doorway because we've both got bad posture like this opening opening out i do that every day now do you yeah yeah all these secret things you do are you on the fair i just don't have to tell you everything i do i know but i don't i tell you everything i do i just don't think if i'm stretching in the morning hey babe i'm just stretching here you should well i don't think you should i don't think you have to but who are you doing this for what for me so you tell me every day my posture needs to be better.

20:01So I'm trying to take positive steps. I don't even know who you are. Can't win, can you? I literally don't know who you are. You could be a serial killer for all I know with all this. I'm stretching in the morning. Who the hell are you? No, I told you the reason I'm in different bedrooms is because you're shouting at the top of your voice and I would like some peace. Did Lucinda respond to Noah's Ark? Did she? No. Okay. It's because you text her. She texts me straight back. I think I actually asked her a question. She ignored that as well. She's got 396 unread messages. Has she? Yeah. Because James is like, she doesn't respond to anyone apart from me.

20:44Hey, gang. I have a pressing matter, which I'm sure Pete and Gaz can completely relate to. I've been married to my lovely wife for the last 14 years, the apple of my eye and the drum to my heartbeat. To my heartbeat, yeah. But very recently, we hit a brick wall due to something that she claims is my fault, but I really don't think it is. Our 15-year anniversary is coming up. It'll be November the 19th. And I can't explain to you how inconvenient that date is for me, as it's the release date for GTA. What's that? Grand Theft Auto on the PlayStation or Xbox. I'm a massive gamer. Men on computer games is just enough.

21:23It's my absolute passion, hobby, or whatever you want to call it. This is going to be the biggest one of all time. For comparison, it was cheaper to build the Burj Khalifa than it was to make this game. So you must understand that I cannot miss this. Can you imagine that? This game's been in development for like years, hasn't it? You've probably played it Stoke still when the last one was out. Yeah, yeah. I don't like that game. It's so violent. GTA, have you ever played it? Grand Theft Auto. Yeah. That's where you like go beat people up on the street and stuff. Yeah, anything goes. It's just so bizarre.

21:53I would love to see you play this. I've never even held a controller in my life. Have you not? No. She says that I'm just playing a stupid game and why can't I play it when we get home? But I have work the next day and I think it's absurd to wait any longer than an hour to play this game, let alone 24. So am I being unreasonable in wanting to reschedule our 15-year anniversary dinner to a few days later? Or should my wife suck it up and let me have the evening off? We've had 14 great anniversaries so far and I'll happily break my 14-year streak of exceptional anniversaries to play this game. I hope Abby will cut me some slack.

22:29Why can't he play the game in the morning? I don't understand. I get it, if I'm being totally honest. Because I understand I'm not a huge gamer. You're not a gamer at all. I don't mind a game, but I'm not obsessed by it. But a huge gamer. We haven't even got a console in our house. But if you are into it, right, massively, like he is, this is like saying your dad to your dad, you've got to miss the Champions League final it kind of is to someone who likes gaming to someone who's into it it's literally like saying that you know it is if you said to your dad if Sue said to your dad it's the Champions League final it's our anniversary well why can't they should meet in the middle why can't he like just another day any other day any other day yeah but why does he why does he have to play on that day literally because when it comes out yeah people can you imagine the whole time at dinner he's going to be thinking I could be playing GTA I could be getting a hooker and knocking someone out on the street corner right now like because that's what the game is in the game yeah but in the game it's just nerd like what well I don't know I haven't played it I think I've only played it once but what I'm saying is it's his World Cup final didn't they like steal cars and stuff like that you do yeah it's literally what you're explaining yeah I know every lad that I know is booking time off annual leave to go and play this the week it comes out.

23:52How mad is that? So where did they go to play it? Just at home. Yeah, stay at home and play. That's so weird. That is so weird. It's so weird for you because you're not into it, but if you are into it, is what I'm saying. If I was into something... It's like those YouTube things where people watch people play the PlayStation. That just blows my mind. Never understood that, the appeal of that. Like watching people play Roadblocks. Like, why the hell would you do that? Oh, yeah. I think if I was really incredibly passionate. If he's got the day off, why can't he play it in the morning? And then she can get, and while she's getting ready and then they can go out.

24:33Because he's not going to play it for 12 hours, is he? Yeah? Do you play it? I've got it on order. You pre-ordered it? Yeah. Blimey, there you go. I wouldn't skip my anniversary for it, though. Would you not? No. Fair enough. Once you've got it, you've got it, haven't you? and I think you can have a little play on it you just can't just don't go through the night yeah do you know what this is a good debate so do people stay up to play this because we live in this like spoiler world now where you go on your phone it'll be sport for you immediately I think people just want to lock in play it experience it and not have it ruined by the internet do you know what I mean they kind of just want to get it done well there's a simple solution to that go on your day turn your fucking phone off and play it the next day it's true end of story grow up I think if like Like if I was massively passionate about something and I said to you, babe, just not this day, any other day, I think you would accommodate that.

25:29I would, but I think it's just the whole concept of a grown man being so excited to play a computer game. It's just weird to me. Do you have any games that you like or anything, like a Wordle or a Candy Crush or anything? Because they're all quite addictive on purpose. I like those ones where you have to put the coloured balls in order in the glass. I love that game. Do you love that game? I'm so good at it as well. I love it. What's it called? I don't know. Have you seen it? I think I've seen it advertised. You've got to mix them into the right orders. I love that. Do you? I'm a beast at that.

26:04That's the only game. We like playing that word game as well, don't we? I feel like we've helped people there. I'm just mind blown. By him. Do you remember when I left you outside and I was playing Call of Duty? Yeah, I got locked out for two hours. While Pete was... At the end of my gaming career. You've got to tell this story again for this pod, because I don't think... Pete was killing children on Call of Duty with a headset on. It was unbelievable. And I was in a dark room with the doors shut, headphones on, and I was locked out the house for two hours. It wasn't two hours. It can't be two hours.

26:36And he was just on it. I was in her face when I turned... I mean, I finally turned around. She was obviously banging on the window. Yeah. And when I finally turned around, the face, she always was just... Was it unbelievable? So funny. It was like the anger and disappointment. I actually get Call of Duty more. Yeah. Because it's like an army game, isn't it? Yeah. And it's kind of, you know, clay pigeon shooting-esque. Yeah, there's like an ultimate goal. There's a goal like you've got to kill as many soldiers or whatever. Yeah. But that other thing, it's just warped. It's warped. It is. It's not like, it's not the right.

27:17if so many people want to do that kind of behaviour that's not good it's just lawless isn't it it's like you can just do whatever you want that's not good it's just why do we watch gangsters or murderers I don't you know films I don't I watch like The Duchess and stuff like that it's a liar I hate I hate anything murdery but I'm just saying it's just you know it's what it is I'll probably have a little play a little game on it do you reckon you will well Jack's asked me for it but he's only a baby right Has he asked you for it? Yeah, he did ask me. Because the kids at school must be talking about it.

27:51They're 100%. Because he's never played it or seen it. Oh, bless him. Maybe it's like an 18. I know it is, yeah. There's no way. I can't get it for him, but, you know, the kids are talking about it. Just give him Donkey Kong. Time to shut up. There's nothing wrong with Donkey Kong, but I love a bit of DK. Oh, Sean used to play that Donkey Kong. He still loved that. That Mario Kart. And Gremlins, yeah, Gremlins. Gremlins, yeah. Donkey Kong was a crack, wasn't it? Superb. All right, well... On that note. We'll see you next time. Ask me anything. Sure, bye.
