The Therapy Crouch

Welcome to another episode of The Therapy Crouch! This week, Abbey is nursing a brutally symmetrical Portuguese mosquito bite while Pete returns from China to face some harsh truths from their seven-year-old son Jack, who has officially ruled out marriage for good. Plus, the debate turns heated as Pete's fresh moustache gets brutally compared to an 80s p*rn star and a swinger's retreat regular. We also dive into the eternal question every partner asks: why do retired footballers abandon the pitch just to obsess over golf? Pete reveals whether hitting a hole-in-one tops scoring a Premier League screamer, while Abbey explains why an immaculately organised airing cupboard gives her a bigger high than any sport on earth. Things take a chaotic turn when a listener submits a terrifying shower prank mishap that turned a romantic routine into a trip hazard, prompting an official crouch public safety announcement.

We've taken over a friends studio for another episode of The Therapy Crouch! Pete has unveiled a brand-new moustache just in time for November, and let’s just say Abbey is far from impressed. From brutal roasts about whether it suits him to Abbey discovering a BBC study revealing that pet dogs are actually cleaner than men's facial hair, domestic harmony is truly hanging by a thread. The couple dive headfirst into the madness of Halloween preparations, debating proper etiquette around trick-or-treating, disastrous past outfits, and whether sexy costumes have gone entirely too far. Plus, Pete defends an emergency essentials trip to Decathlon, while Abbey questions why it's treated like a day out. Elsewhere, we hear wild celebrity trick-or-treating tales, discuss the logistics of couples costumes, and unpack an outrageous Agony Abs dilemma involving neighbourhood candy feuds and petty payback.

On this Ask Me Anything, Pete and Abbey are back tackling your wild Ask Me Anything dilemmas, from university pranks taken to sickening extremes to Pete getting completely stitched up with Deep Heat in the Stoke City changing rooms. Plus, Abbey exposes Pete's questionable choice of romantic bedroom music and the horrors of getting hammered together on date night. In this episode, the debate turns to relationship red flags when a listener asks how to save a best mate whose partner is alienating everyone, leaving Pete and Abbey to discuss whether you should ever tell a friend you hate their other half.

We're back in the barn for another episode of The Therapy Crouch! Pete and Abbey unpack their scenic escape to Norway, surviving endless glasses of "bitch juice," and why Pete's post-golf hosting habits leave Abbey freezing in a house without furniture. Between Abbey attempting to cure a brutal hangover with raw sardines and Pete sleeping with a giant turkey-shaped ostrich pillow on his head, domestic harmony is truly hanging by a thread. The team break down the sheer chaos of half-term parenting, navigating four kids with zero overlapping interests, and the extreme parental lies used to keep the peace. Pete reveals why he abandoned Abbey mid-fall during a high-stakes game of 40-40 in the garden, while the pair make another high-stakes charity bet on whether they can survive the holidays completely sober. Plus, an incredible lineup of listener dilemmas in Weekly Wines and Agony Abs: from living with a flatmate who commentates every domestic chore like David Attenborough, to a blind date that goes horribly wrong when the woman opposite turns out to be the local waxing specialist. Finally, the gang tackle a truly cursed, wide-eyed horse painting that's destroying one listener’s living room walls.

On this AMA episode of The Therapy Crouch, Pete and Abbey are back tackling your most pressing questions, starting with Pete awkwardly explaining why Abbey didn't get an enthusiastic invite to his upcoming podcast awards night. Between wardrobe disputes and chaotic rental living, the pair unpack the unfiltered reality of marriage when life gets messy. The debate moves straight into home renovations and whether living amongst dust, storage units, and builders at 7am completely destroys romance—with Abbey giving a brutally honest answer on what happens to the bedroom spark. Plus, the two go head-to-head on who is truly reckless with money: Pete's massive fun budgets or Abbey's uncompromising obsession with luxury kitchen ovens. Elsewhere, Pete and Abbey look back at their vow renewal on a private island, debate taking on The Traitors or Celebrity SAS, and sort out what Pete should wear to pick up an award.

We're back in the barn for another episode of The Therapy Crouch! This week, Pete and Abbey dive into the sobering realisation of getting older, from realising we only have "20 summers left" to Pete officially banning Abbey from his car after driveway parking chaos and a trashed centre console. Plus, Gaz reveals the time he wore skin-tight long johns into an office job for weeks on end. The gang explore how our habits evolve with age, debating tech neck, whether looking through Country Living magazine is the ultimate sign of middle age, and why Abbey refused to let Pete attend the new house meeting. We also look back at Abbey's school days drawing fake Calvin Klein logos on her clothes, Pete's dream year at Liverpool, and tackle an Agony Ab dilemma from a man who pretended to be broke on date one and has now trapped himself in a "prison of thrift" at Wetherspoons.

We're back in the barn for another Therapy Crouch AMA! Abbey and Pete kick things off unpacking Abbey’s marathon seven-hour phone calls investigating whether Noah’s Ark has actually been uncovered and why you shouldn't touch an alien. Pete also reveals why he’s forced to hide in the kids' bedrooms just to get half an hour of peace, only to be accused of leading a double life over some simple morning doorway stretches. The great gaming debate takes centre stage as Pete admits the moment his gaming career was brutally cut short after locking Abbey outside in the cold for two hours while wearing a headset. This leads into an unforgettable listener debate on whether it's ever acceptable to cancel a 15-year wedding anniversary dinner just to play the biggest video game release of the decade. Elsewhere, we hear about disastrous Pilates attempts on the reformer, the agony of pulled adductors, and a stomach-churning AMA straight from the dance floor of an Ibiza beach club involving frozen margaritas and very questionable hygiene.

We're back in the barn for another episode of The Therapy Crouch! This week, Abbey is giving Pete’s face a full MOT (flaming wax balls included), while Pete defends his pool-side grunting while lifting 5kg pink dumbbells. The pair also debate the irresistible male urge to give a "happy slap" when walking past your partner, the perils of the "sweaty chin rest" hug, and Abbey’s pregnant school run delayed by a curry chip barm. We’re also settling the ultimate UK debate: The World Cup of North vs. South! From Greggs vs. Gail’s to The Beatles vs. The Rolling Stones, battle lines are drawn. Plus, Pete shares his "subtle art of distraction" for getting his dream golf hole past Abbey. We hear about the kids meeting Lamine Yamal, the England squad and Agony Abs tackles a chilling turf war over a fridge's ice dispenser.

Welcome back to a special Ask Me Anything edition of The Therapy Crouch! This week, Abbey, Peter, and Gaz are recording in style from London’s Corinthia Hotel. The gang kick things off with a debate over spa days, why Abbey would rather see the coving guy than go on date night, hungover spooning styles, and an awkward run-in with Frank Skinner. Then it’s straight into listener dilemmas: Pete faces an impossible round of "Marry, Shag, Avoid", the group build a playlist out of their own names, and a listener writes in with a massive family feud over naming their baby after a grandparent "Mildred". Plus, Abbey and Pete put £1,000 on the line for charity in a heated VAR playback bet! 00:00 Welcome to the Corinthia Hotel AMA! 01:09 Date Night Rejections & Abbey’s Coving Obsession 03:24 Ice Cube Snobs & Weekly Whines 05:04 The Spooning Debate: Jetpack Joe & Mountain Bikes 07:22 Frank Skinner Encounters & Awkward Stare-Offs 09:47 Listener Question: Marry, Shag, Avoid 13:28 The Alphabet Name Music Game (Prince, Phil Collins & Bob Sinclar) 16:29 Agony Abs: The "Mildred" Baby Name Dilemma 18:40 VAR REPLAY POINT! 19:27 The £100 Charity Bet 19:57 Tall Kid Names & Why We’re Losing the Name "Gary" 23:42 Wrap Up & Final Thoughts To 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 Peter https://twitter.com/petercrouch For more from Abbey https://www.instagram.com/abbeyclancy Our clips channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZntcv96YhN8IvMAKsz4Dbg Hosted on Acast.

Welcome back to a very special episode of The Therapy Crouch! This week, Abbey and Peter are joined by the iconic Coleen and Wayne Rooney! From growing up together in Liverpool and navigating massive media storms as teenagers, to raising four football-mad boys and filming their brand-new Disney+ series The Real Rooneys, Wayne and Coleen hold nothing back. Wayne opens up about the emotional wobble of stepping away from management, why he snubbed Washington DC (and stole Pete’s transfer!), and getting lost in disguise at Glastonbury.

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, Abbey and Peter are exhausted, voice-less, and straight back from the wedding of the century in Mallorca for Abbey’s sister Elle and Scott! Pete makes the dangerous admission that it might have been better than their own wedding, before breaking down how the entire UK airspace shutdown almost left the groom without a suit! In this week’s listener dilemmas, we hear about child-free wedding rules being broken by feral nephews, a mortified mum whose six-year-old took her bedside intimates to a park playdate, and a couple living a 10-month lie after spending their Thailand honeymoon fund on a broken boiler.

In this week’s listener questions, a listener is left spiralling after her boyfriend muttered "I love you" for the first time completely asleep in bed, sparking a fierce debate between Pete and Abbey on whether unconscious confessions count, saying the L-word on Day Three, and Abbey's unromantic text blunder: "I love you" VS "I'm at the gate!"

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, Abbey and Peter are back answering more of your Ask Me Anythings, and this week things get VERY personal as the pair tackle bedroom confidence, dirty talk and whether getting into the best shape of your life can actually cause problems in your relationship. After one listener reveals her newly ripped husband suddenly wants all the lights on in the bedroom, Abbey and Peter debate body confidence before the conversation somehow ends up with rotating beds, sex tapes and a revelation from the Crouches that catches everyone slightly off guard! We also hear from a listener whose request for a little more communication in the bedroom spectacularly backfires when her boyfriend starts delivering some of the least seductive lines imaginable. Abbey reveals the one word she could NEVER cope with Peter saying, while Pete attempts to offer some bedroom advice of his own. Elsewhere, a new Therapy Crouch superfan gets banned from listening to the podcast in public, Abbey and Peter reveal what they won’t let the kids do on holiday, and one listener’s mission to get fit and improve his love life leads to his wife quite literally keeping score of their bedroom activity.
