Summary

On this week’s episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, Chris Stark opens up about his deeply personal and challenging experience—his recent battle with testicular cancer.

In an honest and emotional conversation, Chris shares how he discovered the diagnosis, the whirlwind of emotions that followed, and the treatment process, including surgery and chemotherapy.

The lads discuss the importance of early detection, the impact of health scares on mental resilience, and the role of humour in dealing with life’s toughest moments.

This episode is about more than just Chris’s journey; it’s a conversation about awareness, support, and the importance of looking out for yourself and those around you. A serious subject, tackled with the openness and camaraderie that defines this podcast.
