The Therapy Crouch

On today's episode of The Therapy Crouch, Abbey is completely consumed by the house of her dreams as she reveals how a 15-year search has finally come to an end and why decorating it has become an all-consuming obsession. Peter also shares the story of a recent speaking event where he discovered not everyone is his biggest fan, leading to a hilarious conversation about criticism, internet comments and being judged by people you've never even met. The gang then get stuck into the world of stag dos, debating what actually makes the perfect lads' trip and whether some traditions should finally be left in the past. In the Agony Abs, one listener is left fuming after her boyfriend returns from a stag do and proudly reveals exactly what went on during a trip to a strip club, sparking a huge discussion around trust, honesty and relationship boundaries. We also hear from a new mum whose partner walked away shortly after the birth of their baby, leading to some of Abbey's strongest advice yet on parenthood, responsibility and putting family first.

On today’s Ask Me Anything episode of The Therapy Crouch, Abbey and Peter are still living their best lives in Portugal as they answer your most random, chaotic and hilarious questions yet. Peter reveals his bizarre talent for recognising footballers from just their forehead, the gang debate whether digestive biscuits have got thinner over the years and Abbey shares the household tasks she absolutely refuses to do. The conversation quickly spirals into dream movie roles, awkward running styles, questionable farming smells and whether being called “Daddy” in bed really does increase testosterone levels by 300%. There’s also chat about Arctic Monkeys, celebrity acting ambitions, animal births, podcast life behind the scenes and why Abbey would rather play a crackhead than a glamorous role.

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, Abbey and Peter are back in Portugal and things descend into chaos almost immediately as Pete gets called out for his bizarre podcast habits, the couple debate whether men dress like toddlers on holiday and Abbey relives her iconic school lunch era involving giant sandwiches, wham bars and borrowing 20p from classmates for dinner. The Agony Abs are particularly unhinged this week as the team discuss whether a grown man letting his mum trim his toenails is the ultimate relationship ick, before tackling a wedding guest dilemma involving cheating, exes and potential reception carnage. Pete also reveals his strict “no dickhead policy” for weddings and why some guests simply have to go. There’s also a surprise guest appearance that completely changes the mood of the podcast and leaves the whole room unexpectedly relaxed. The gang chat stress, burnout, sleep struggles and why certain voices instantly calm you down… while others do the exact opposite. Plus, football flight tracking, weird family beauty treatments, podcast breathing complaints and why Abbey thinks Peter has officially become too calm.

On today’s Ask Me Anything episode of The Therapy Crouch, Abbey and Peter are back in Portugal answering your dilemmas and diving into absolute chaos from start to finish. From debating whether three dogs is officially too many, to navigating awkward step-parenting moments and hilarious regional slang debates, this episode has a bit of everything. The pair also open up about family life and the emotional reality of living far away from parents as one listener asks for advice about moving abroad and missing home. Abbey shares why she’d never cope with the kids leaving home while Peter reveals the lockdown-style family traditions he’d bring back in a heartbeat. Elsewhere, the GCSE debate returns as listeners question whether Abbey really got the grades she claims, leading to a full-on interrogation from Peter and the team... Are we saying foul play? There’s also audiobook confessions, freezing cold Portugal weather complaints, and a lot of discussion about “freezies”, “ice pops” and “lolly ice” that completely derails the episode.

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, Abbey and Peter are still living their best lives in Portugal… although Pete’s ego may have taken a slight battering after a disastrous mixed doubles tennis tournament against a group of senior citizens who absolutely wiped the floor with him. Abbey wastes no time exposing exactly what went wrong, including Pete’s “respectful” approach that spectacularly backfired. The couple also dive into one of the biggest causes of relationship tension — diary planning. From golf days and family logistics to who really controls the calendar at home, Abbey explains why every single plan now has to go through Claire before marital chaos erupts. Plus, the gang discuss relationship “icks”, going upstairs two at a time, hobbies couples should definitely keep separate, and whether Oasis officially counts as “Dad Rock”. Elsewhere, Abbey reveals her surprising obsession with David Beckham’s vegetable garden and chickens, Peter reminisces about Oasis nostalgia and Desert Island albums, and the team debate what books and music they’d take if stranded forever. There’s also talk of reality TV habits, holiday advice, and why some things are simply better enjoyed without your partner. 00:00 Portugal Detox & Party Recovery 01:14 Peter Gets Humbled At Tennis 03:00 “Consistency Is Key In Tennis” 04:31 Ross Update & Listener Messages 04:58 Abbey Hates Seeing Pete Lose 05:26 Abbey’s Fear Of Tennis Lessons 06:27 Abbey Opens Up About Childhood & Sport 07:20 Abbey vs Peter: Ultimate Sports Day 08:31 The Couple Argument Everyone Has 10:11 Abbey’s Strict Family Diary System 12:03 Why Busy Couples Always Clash 12:49 The Weirdest Relationship Ick 13:28 Running Up Stairs Debate 15:14 Abbey Reveals Her Biggest Insecurity 15:45 Abbey Discovers A “Normal” Listener 16:26 Abbey’s Celebrity Lookalike Debate 18:05 Couples Sharing Hobbies Goes Wrong 19:14 TV Shows They Refuse To Watch Together 20:37 Hunger Games & Comfort Movies 21:39 The Best Holiday Advice Ever 22:52 Tail’s.com Ad Read 24:28 Desert Island Dilemmas Begin 25:35 The One Book They’d Save Forever 27:31 Roald Dahl & Childhood Reading Memories 28:07 Abbey’s Disturbing Book Confession 30:15 The Secret To Getting Kids Reading 30:55 Desert Island Albums 31:41 Oasis, Nostalgia & Dad Rock Arguments 34:04 Abbey’s Beckham Garden Obsession 35:34 Doomscrolling & “Ignorance Is Bliss” 36:19 Peter’s James Bond Fantasy Life 36:40 Peter’s Visit To Eton 37:49 Inside Eton’s Incredible Traditions 39:15 What Makes Privileged Kids Different? 41:02 The Reality Of Elite Schools 42:40 The Team Debate Luxury & Success 44:18 What They’d Actually Miss On A Desert Island 46:03 Desert Island Guilty Pleasures 47:51 Holiday Packing Essentials 49:20 Things Couples Secretly Judge Each Other For 51:08 Their Most Addictive Habits 52:44 Listener Dilemmas Return 54:33 Final Portugal Reflections 56:17 End To contact us:Email: thetherapycrouch@gmail.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thetherapycrouchpodcast/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thetherapycrouchWebsite: https://thetherapycrouch.com/ For more from Peterhttps://twitter.com/petercrouch For more from Abbeyhttps://www.instagram.com/abbeyclancy Our clips channelhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZntcv96YhN8IvMAKsz4Dbg Hosted on Acast.

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. 00:00 Solo AMA Begins00:35 Pete Revisits Old Podcast Clips01:28 The Brutal Memory Loss Question03:04 “Shaba” vs “Shava” Debate05:33 Chaos Completely Takes Over06:00 Romantic Break Recommendations07:50 Italy, Rain and Cowboy Holidays08:52 Open Relationships Discussion11:38 Golf Or Abbey?

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… If you want to submit an Agony Ab to the podcast - hit the link belowhttps://docs.google.com/forms/d/1rAKDST4HU_8al_aWpOlys3TRJrWvDV-84piVdlOOjU4/edit 00:00 Introduction01:05 Pete’s Brutal Tennis Defeat04:35 Abbey’s Emotional Animal Rescue Story10:20 Abbey’s “Straight A” GCSE Results Exposed13:35 Abbey’s Secret Pop Star Dreams14:05 “Blue Jobs” & Relationship Rules15:00 Portugal Reset & Family Time15:30 Would You Rather: Meet Dave17:20 Mother-In-Law House Drama20:10 The Helicopter Husband Confession23:20 Reuniting With A School Bully25:55 Conspiracy Theory Special Begins26:20 “Birds Aren’t Real” Debate27:55 Bill Gates & Tick Conspiracies29:10 Flat Earth Theory Explained32:40 AI Is Taking Over The World33:15 Abbey Has Never Owned A Laptop34:05 Was The Moon Landing Fake?!35:55 Pete Questions Space Travel39:30 Final Conspiracy Thoughts50:20 Wrapping UpTo contact us:Email: thetherapycrouch@gmail.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thetherapycrouchpodcast/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thetherapycrouch Website: https://thetherapycrouch.com/ For more from Peterhttps://twitter.com/petercrouch For more from Abbeyhttps://www.instagram.com/abbeyclancy/ Our clips channelhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZntcv96YhN8IvMAKsz4Dbg Hosted on Acast.

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…).

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.

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, 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.

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, it’s a full blown Ask Me Anything as Abbey and Peter dive head first into your dilemmas, debates and downright chaotic questions. From friendship group fallouts over whether partners should be allowed on girls trips, to the awkward truth about reading your partner’s private messages, nothing is off limits. The pair also tackle the ultimate relationship grey areas including whether “body count” conversations are ever a good idea (spoiler: they’re not), and why some things are better left unsaid. Plus, we get a hilarious breakdown of the biggest “icks” that instantly kill attraction — from oversized gin glasses to questionable fashion choices. There’s also a surprisingly passionate debate about old-school names dying out (RIP Gary), Abbey’s brutal take on men who can’t do keepy ups, and Peter setting a bold challenge to turn Abby into a football freestyler in just two weeks.

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, we are joined by the one and only Peter Andre and his incredible wife Dr. Emily Andre for a hilarious, honest and surprisingly deep conversation about fame, family life and everything in between. Pete takes us back 30 years to the moment “Mysterious Girl” became a global hit, opening up about the highs, the ego, and the unexpected backlash that came with fame — including why he suddenly stopped taking his shirt off and how it completely changed the way people treated him. He also shares the story behind his brand new “Legacy” album, featuring remastered classics, brand new tracks and some huge collaborations from around the world. Emily gives us a real insight into balancing life as a doctor, a mum of three and being married to one of the most recognisable faces in British pop culture — including what it’s actually like holding down the fort while Pete is away touring. We also get into how the couple first met (and it involves a hospital visit you won’t believe), parenting across different ages, the realities of long-term relationships and why communication has completely changed Pete’s outlook as a dad. Plus, there’s plenty of classic Therapy Crouch chaos — from cooking disasters and naked dancing to brutally honest relationship moments that every couple will recognise.

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, things get chaotic as Abbey and Peter dive into the modern relationship “icks” that are driving everyone mad. From gym-obsessed boyfriends who suddenly start calling every meal “fuel”, to the bizarre habits that creep in when people take their fitness journeys a little too seriously, the pair unpack the realities of dating in 2026. We also hear some of your listener dilemmas including whether sharing a Netflix account with an ex is a major red flag, and what to do when your partner’s habits start giving you the ultimate ick. Plus, Abbey and Pete relive a holiday debate that will feel VERY familiar—when taking the perfect Instagram photo completely ruins the moment. In the Agony Abs, things take a seriously weird turn with a bedroom confession involving being called “Daddy”… and an unexpected counter-offer of “Granny” that completely derails the mood. It’s funny, unfiltered and full of the kind of honest relationship chat that will have you questioning everything.

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, things get very honest as Abbey and Peter dive into the little habits, lies and dynamics that make (or break) a relationship… 👀 The episode kicks off with a debate that every couple will recognise - is tracking your partner’s location actually about safety… or is it crossing a line? Abbey defends it, Peter calls it a full-on violation, and things quickly spiral from there. We also get into the harmless (and not-so-harmless) lies we tell in relationships - from exaggerating talents to fully committing to stories that get completely out of hand. Plus, one listener dilemma about a dad pretending to be a professional footballer takes things to a whole new level. Abbey opens up about the assumptions people make because of her accent, while the pair share their thoughts on stereotypes, confidence and proving people wrong. There’s also the usual chaos - including a ridiculous game that quickly derails the episode and some very questionable dinner table entertainment with the kids. And in a rare serious moment, Abbey and Peter reveal what they think actually makes their relationship work after all these years - from embracing differences to knowing when to just let things go.

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, Abbey Clancy and Peter Crouch are back with chaos, confessions, and a few relationship “debates” that spiral quickly. From a luxury Mother’s Day with a private chef to a £1,300 ear piercing shock that leaves Abbey fuming, the couple unpack a week full of unexpected drama. Things take a turn as Pete calls out Abbey’s “volatility,” sparking a hilarious but all-too-relatable breakdown of relationship miscommunication — including why the word “fine” absolutely never means fine. The pair also dive into a listener dilemma about football taking over family life, with Pete defending the beautiful game while Abbey isn’t quite as convinced.

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, Abbey and Peter are back with another chaotic catch up as Peter reveals he’s started a brand new fitness regime and has become absolutely obsessed with swimming, which Abbey is convinced is just proof he’s embracing his inner old man in the pool. Abbey also tells us all about her very glamorous day out at Fulham where she enjoyed oysters, pancakes and a full English in the brand new Riverside hospitality stand, although she admits it might not be the most authentic football experience. Things quickly heat up when Abbey calls Peter out for secretly adding things to the family diary, leaving her to juggle four school runs and a mysterious training challenge she’s currently preparing for. In the Agony Abs, a listener writes in with a bizarre dilemma as her neighbour appears to be slowly stealing her cat, which leads to a hilarious debate about whether cats actually choose their owners and what you should do when your pet starts spending more time next door than at home. Elsewhere, the pair chat about luxury barber experiences, the worst haircut Peter ever had thanks to his dad, Harry Styles’ accent, WhatsApp stress and the couple’s ongoing battle with modern family logistics.

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch Ask Me Anything, Abbey and Peter are back answering your questions and sharing some of the most chaotic stories from their week. Abbey reveals a terrifying experience driving down the winding roads of Box Hill, despite having a serious fear of heights. With a sheer drop beside the road, cars piling up behind her and the kids in the back, the pressure quickly became overwhelming as she tried to navigate one of the narrowest roads she’s ever driven. Peter also finds himself under fire as Abbey recalls another recent car journey with him behind the wheel, comparing the experience to the Wolf of Wall Street boat scene thanks to some rather aggressive acceleration and braking. The team also tackle some of your questions, including a sticky dating situation where a listener may have complicated his love life after getting a barmaid’s number… only to realise she’s friends with his new girlfriend. Plus there’s discussion around relationship “wine therapy”, whether sitting down with a glass of wine actually helps solve arguments or just makes things worse, the ultimate wine vs beer debate, and some hilarious ideas for the kids’ next fancy dress outfits.

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, it’s a Mother’s Day special on the podcast as Abbey and Peter welcome a very special guest onto the couch — Abbey’s mum Karen. The episode kicks off with Pete admitting to a classic husband fail after forgetting Abbey’s very first Mother’s Day which sparks a debate about the pressure of getting the perfect gift and whether husbands should actually be responsible for organising the day at all. Abbey also reveals that she’s been secretly editing Pete’s flower orders over the years to make sure she actually gets the bouquet she wants, while Pete defends himself saying the expectations around special occasions are getting out of hand. Later on Karen joins the pod and shares stories about Abbey growing up, what she was really like as a child and why she always knew her daughter would end up performing and entertaining. We also hear about pregnancy cravings, family traditions in Liverpool and what Mother’s Day looks like once your kids grow up and start their own families. In the Agony Abs we hear from a mum who secretly hates Mother’s Day and another listener wondering if her husband should still be helping the kids organise gifts even now they’re teenagers.

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, Abbey and Peter are answering your burning questions in another chaotic Ask Us Anything special - and nothing is off limits. The pod kicks off with a listener dealing with what can only be described as “strategic bowel syndrome”, as one husband mysteriously disappears to the toilet every single time parenting duties begin. Abbey has a surprisingly brutal solution involving adult nappies, while Pete shares his own suspicious bathroom habits. Elsewhere, the pair help a listener who’s struggling to pull at the races, debate whether it’s ever okay to stay friends with an ex, and give advice to someone whose dad has completely taken over their wedding plans after offering to pay for it. There’s also a surprisingly deep discussion about AI robots in the home, Abbey reveals what it’s really like walking the runway as a model during fashion week, and the team share their most awkward cinema experiences – including sneaking McDonald’s into the theatre and a dog causing absolute chaos mid-movie. And in one of the strangest dilemmas yet, Pete discovers the bizarre world of fantasy romance books, as Abbey explains why so many women are hooked on these wildly popular stories.

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, things get steamy (and seriously educational) as Abbey and Peter are joined by renowned sex educator, journalist and PhD researcher Alix Fox. Alix has spent over two decades exploring the ins and outs (quite literally) of intimacy, fetishes and modern relationships. From her early days reporting on BDSM and subcultures, to working as a script consultant on Netflix’s Sex Education, and now completing a PhD at UCL focused on HIV prevention — Alix has seen every side of the conversation when it comes to sex. The trio dive into everything from the rise in fantasy-inspired sex toys (up 244% this year!), to why more than half of women admit to faking orgasms to protect their partner’s feelings. They discuss the stigma straight men still face around sex toys, how to introduce fantasies into long-term relationships without offending your partner, and whether honesty in the bedroom is always the best policy.

On today’s Ask Us Anything episode of The Therapy Crouch, Abbey, Peter and Ross dive head-first into your juiciest dilemmas – and this one gets heated. We hear from a newlywed struggling with intimacy after anxiety medication kills his wife’s sex drive, sparking an honest conversation about desire, frustration and when it’s time to get professional help. Then things really kick off as Abbey reacts to a listener who went through her partner’s phone and found bikini pics, pub messages and lads’ group chat behaviour that crosses the line. Is it just “boys’ banter”… or is it borderline cheating? From trust, boundaries and when sorry just isn’t enough, to iconic football songs and questionable swimming chat, this episode has everything.

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, it’s time for a Best Of special – the funniest, most chaotic and downright outrageous moments of the year so far. From Peter’s accidental 6AM “private” workout in the pod (that may or may not have been caught on camera), to Abbey discovering she was someone’s lock screen… nothing is off limits. We revisit the now-infamous saturation diver jellyfish story (yes, it’s as bad as you remember), Pete’s Ibiza jellyfish disaster, and the marriage debate that had everyone shouting “you’re not present at all!” Plus, the Nickname Game Hall of Fame returns with some absolute crackers — including “Cordless”, “Pothole” and the one ( you know the one!) that nearly broke the internet. There’s posture problems, packing arguments, erotic literature confusion, scuba diving fails and proof (apparently) that Abbey is a full-blown sex symbol.

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch AMA, Pedro’s off sick so it’s just Abbey and Ross holding down the fort — and chaos ensues. We kick things off with Ross’s long-awaited face reveal as Abbey recruits the listeners to send in their best photo-fit sketches before the big reveal. There’s also Valentine’s chat, glow-up jealousy and a listener whose partner hasn’t noticed her transformation (men, do better). In the Agony Abs, we tackle a relationship that’s missing the passion of an ex, the 13-year wait for a proposal, and whether a ring actually changes anything. Plus, Abbey gets brutally honest about weddings, security and why sometimes you need to give your man a kick up the arse. We also hear about the worst house guest of all time — porch vomit, dressing gown theft and zero self-awareness — before deciding whether ghosting is ever acceptable.It’s bonk beats vs Classic FM, hot mum paranoia and some very strong opinions on men being completely useless.

In today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, it’s Valentine’s Day week—and love is not in the air for everyone. Abbey and Peter dive into the chaos of coupledom, unpacking dodgy Valentine’s Day traditions, emotionally-charged listener rants, and their own romantic misfires. The duo also get into thoughtful (and not-so-thoughtful) gifts, including matching PJs that never made it and strawberry body butter that’s become too predictable. We also hear from a listener whose Valentine's re-evaluation spiral triggered a relationship crisis, and another whose fiancé ruins every gift by announcing it first.  Plus, there’s a steamy surprise segment on erotic literature—complete with dramatic readings and some very questionable knots. Finally, it’s nickname heaven as listeners send in their best ever rude, weird and wildly inappropriate names for mates—featuring “Pothole”, “Slinky”, and the unforgettable “Joy Button.” Send in your Agony Abs, weekly wines, and nickname game entries below! 00:00 - Introduction04:32 - Gone Golfin’18:01 - Valentine’s Day!29:05 - Bonk Beats Book Club35:20 - Joy Button41:18 - So (Ham) Salad45:33 - Competition time!

From the pressure of dating apps and speed dating horror stories to the very real pain of hosting a dinner party that goes completely off the rails, nothing is off limits. The pair also dive into why January is financially ruthless, whether a proper “reset” is even possible after Christmas, and why trying to improve your mental health with daily walks can quickly turn into rage at the general public.

In the Agony Abs, the conversation turns more serious as a listener questions a relationship that’s been stuck in limbo for 11 years, raising honest questions about commitment, living apart, and knowing when to draw the line.

On today’s Christmas special of The Therapy Crouch, Abbey and Peter deliver their very own festive spin on the Queen’s Speech, reflecting on a year of love, growth and the tiny habits that quietly drive us mad. From red flags that shout to beige flags that whisper “this will annoy you forever”, they take a wry look back at the moments that have tested relationships up and down the country. There’s talk of mismatched sexual rhythms, questionable storage discoveries, awkward festive gatherings and the universal comfort of knowing someone else is also silently judging something small. With music confessions, language debates and plenty of wine-fuelled wisdom, Abbey and Peter remind us that none of us are perfect — but if things get tense this Christmas… just grow up. 🎄🍷 Email: thetherapycrouch@gmail.com  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thetherapycrouchpodcast TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thetherapycrouch  Website: https://thetherapycrouch.com/  For more from Peterhttps://twitter.com/petercrouch For more from Abbeyhttps://www.instagram.com/abbeyclancy Our clips channelhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZntcv96YhN8IvMAKsz4Dbg #TheTherapyCrouch #AbbeyAndPete #RelationshipAdvice #Podcast Hosted on Acast.

On today’s festive episode of The Therapy Crouch, Abbey and Peter are fully embracing the chaos as Christmas Eve quickly approaches.  With Santa hats on and patience running low, the pair dive headfirst into the realities of family life at the most wonderful (and stressful) time of year. From mismatched gift expectations and Secret Santa dramas to the unseen mental load that comes with organising Christmas, nothing is off-limits. The episode is packed with classic Crouchy banter, including a Christmas bike purchase that didn’t quite go to plan, debates over midweek work parties, and why men somehow always miss the brief when it comes to presents. In the Agony Abs, listeners write in with festive dilemmas ranging from clashing family traditions to the disappointment of unbalanced effort under the tree. There’s laughter, a few emotional moments, and plenty of honest reflection on what Christmas is really about — slowing down, being together, and surviving the madness as a family.  A proper festive Therapy Crouch, just in time for the big day. 00:00 - Chaotic Christmas energy and opening jokes00:49 - Father Christmas enters the chat01:33 - When your partner hates your jokes02:14 - Christmas presents and control arguments02:43 - Brutal “you’re middle-aged now” voice note04:49 - Abbey vs Peter: who actually does everything?06:15 - Mental load of Christmas and invisible labour09:19 - Bike-gate: the kids’ disastrous Christmas bikes11:20 - Secret Santa spiralling out of control15:18 - Why midweek Christmas parties are a nightmare17:04 - Unexpected deep dive into nature documentaries20:48 - Emotional moment about losing a family pet22:12 - Why Christmas is about slowing life down25:29 - Agony Ab: clashing family Christmas traditions31:17 - Agony Ab: unmatched effort in Christmas gifts35:03 - What Christmas is really about35:52 - Final Christmas chaos and sign-off Email: thetherapycrouch@gmail.com  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thetherapycrouchpodcast TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thetherapycrouch  Website: https://thetherapycrouch.com/  For more from Peterhttps://twitter.com/petercrouch For more from Abbeyhttps://www.instagram.com/abbeyclancy Our clips channelhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZntcv96YhN8IvMAKsz4Dbg #TheTherapyCrouch #AbbeyAndPete #RelationshipAdvice #Podcast Hosted on Acast.

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, it’s an Ask Me Anything classic as Abbey and Peter dive headfirst into your pre-Christmas dilemmas — from hilariously petty neighbour disputes to relationship double standards and DIY disasters that spiral completely out of control. A listener reveals their unwavering refusal to lose a silent bin war, while Abbey questions whether passive aggression might actually be a personality trait. The duo also tackle a plumbing nightmare caused by YouTube-fuelled confidence, debate feminism and dating preferences in a refreshingly honest Agony Abs, and respond to a powerful message about managing health anxiety with practical tools that genuinely help. There’s plenty of laughter, a few brutal truths, and some unexpectedly heartfelt moments as the pair reflect on parenting worries, mental health, and why sometimes knowing your limits is the real win. Plus, a festive teaser hints at what’s coming for the Therapy Crouch Christmas special.

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, Abbey and Peter catch up after what can only be described as one of Abbey’s most chaotic nights out to date. What began as a wholesome wreath-making afternoon quickly spiralled into margaritas on empty stomachs, vomiting on the motorway, missed shopping trips and a Christmas wreath riding shotgun in a car full of regret. Peter shares festive family highlights from the Jingle Bell Ball, including kids desperate for screen time, a painfully awkward Ed Sheeran TikTok moment and Abbey discovering Peter modelling a velvet suit… in the women’s section.  There’s diary drama, Christmas planning chaos, Boxing Day cinema arguments and Peter accidentally attending a maths open day instead of seeing the boys. In listener messages, we hear everything from wedding day disasters and unforgettable anniversaries to Elf on the Shelf horror stories that absolutely cross the line. There’s dating dilemmas, reflections on getting older, turning 40, and why margaritas simply cannot be trusted. If you’ve got a Christmas confession, family faux pas or festive nightmare — you know where to send it. 00:00 – Intro01:42 – Abbey’s “wholesome” wreath-making day02:12 – The wreath day goes wildly off the rails02:44 – Margaritas on an empty stomach: a fatal error03:56 – Duck choking, spitting food, and hysterics04:37 – Alfie vomits on himself driving the M2505:16 – “Wolf of Wall Street” levels of drunkenness06:38 – Abbey can’t remember getting home07:21 – Peter reacts to Abbey’s wild night out08:18 – Kids stealing the spotlight at Jingle Bell Ball09:03 – Ed Sheeran TikTok embarrassment13:22 – Abbey’s Christmas scheduling chaos16:24 – The explosive Avatar Boxing Day argument18:44 – Peter accidentally attends kids’ maths open day23:22 – Reflecting on the year and turning 4028:31 – Peter spotted modelling in the women’s section31:32 – Wedding disasters and football memories35:48 – “My stick” story37:34 – Elf on the Shelf horror story42:18 – Dating apps, being single at 42 & modern love50:29 – Six-hour coffee date ends brutally52:03 – Christmas stories call-out and wrap-up Email: thetherapycrouch@gmail.com  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thetherapycrouchpodcast TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thetherapycrouch  Website: https://thetherapycrouch.com/  For more from Peterhttps://twitter.com/petercrouch For more from Abbeyhttps://www.instagram.com/abbeyclancy Our clips channelhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZntcv96YhN8IvMAKsz4Dbg #TheTherapyCrouch #AbbeyAndPete #RelationshipAdvice #Podcast Hosted on Acast.

On this week’s Ask Me Anything episode of The Therapy Crouch, the chaos levels are high as Abbey and Peter dive head-first into your most unhinged dilemmas. From a roommate who’s become painfully healthy to the point of policing pizza boxes, to a listener who’s accidentally become the full-time admin assistant for her entire extended family, the pair tackle the everyday dramas we all know too well. There’s also a gym crush spiralling out of control, awkward encounters, debates about deep-pan pizza, and a dog-sitting saga involving a completely unapproved full-body shave. Abbey and Peter share stories from home, from early-morning parenting struggles to haircut catastrophes that still haunt them. In the Agony Abs, no topic is off-limits — whether it’s boundaries, compliments, or why saying “no” is borderline impossible for some people. It’s relatable, ridiculous, and very Therapy Crouch.
