The Therapy Crouch

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, Abbey and Peter attempt another long-distance podcast recording... and quickly realise just how difficult it is to be apart.

After a chaotic start filled with technical disasters, Peter opens up about life at the World Cup, meeting internet superstar IShowSpeed, and why being away from home is proving tougher than expected. Meanwhile, Abbey has fully embraced life in Portugal, from horse riding on the beach to becoming the ultimate football mum.

The couple discuss whether they’re any good at long distance, Peter’s frustrations with communication while he’s away, and why they both agree being apart simply doesn’t suit them.

Plus, listener emails spark conversations about celebrity lookalikes, bizarre relationship situations, modern dating dilemmas and one particularly awkward bedroom problem that leaves Abbey and Peter struggling to keep a straight face.

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, Abbey and Peter are back for another Ask Me Anything episode and things quickly take a surprisingly therapeutic turn.

The pair tackle everything from moving across the world and starting over in Los Angeles, to the relationship habits that secretly drive people mad.

There’s a heated debate over butter etiquette, cheese board rules and Peter’s definitive ranking of bottled water, before the conversation shifts into some genuinely heartfelt advice for a listener considering leaving behind friends, family and a successful career for a brand new life abroad.

We also hear about a listener whose boyfriend can’t fall asleep without listening to The Therapy Crouch, discuss why Peter thinks LA is completely different from what he expected, and settle the age-old question of whether Abbey could beat Peter at any physical activity.

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, Abbey and Peter are back for another AMA episode as they answer your dilemmas, share some hilarious stories and dish out their brutally honest advice.

The gang kick things off by talking about spending time apart for the first time in a while before a conversation about restaurant etiquette and customer service spirals into a rant about supermarket managers, jangling keychains and the ultimate "jobsworth" behaviour.

We also hear one of Abbey's most awkward holiday stories ever as an innocent dinner invitation takes a very unexpected turn, leaving her too nervous to tell Peter what had actually happened until much later.

Also, Abbey and Peter help a listener who told someone they loved them only to have the feeling go unreturned, discussing heartbreak, rejection and why sometimes walking away is the healthiest option. We also tackle a bedroom dilemma from a listener looking to spice things up in his relationship, leading to one of the funniest and most chaotic conversations we've had in a long time.

Welcome back to The Therapy Crouch! We’re in the middle of a house move, a country move, and apparently, Pete is starting his new life as a full-time farmer.

In today’s episode, Abbey recounts what can only be described as the most traumatic parking incident in Everyman Cinema history. Let’s just say a 16-year-old staff member and a "barricade" of cars left her in actual tears.

Meanwhile, Pete has bypassed the butcher and come home with live Koi Carp and a brood of ducklings. We introduce you to Bob, Pip, and the rest of the gang—plus, we dive into your "Weekly Whines," including a bottomless brunch disaster and a fan confession that proves Pete’s "accidental sex appeal" is still going strong.

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, Abbey and Peter are back in Portugal for another AMA and things quickly descend into chaos as they discuss the little things that seem to annoy them more and more with age.

Peter shares his surprising obsession with supermarket trolleys while Abbey reveals the birthday party booking experience that left both of them completely baffled. The pair debate why some people seem determined to make life difficult for everyone around them, from awkward customer service encounters to airport staff who appear to enjoy saying no.

We also answer more of your AMA questions, including which football legends Abbey would love to have on the podcast, the footballers and managers she'd most like to interview, and Peter’s thoughts on some of the biggest names in the game.

In the Agony Abs, we hear from a listener whose attempt to spice up a long-distance relationship went spectacularly wrong after sending an extremely personal voice note to completely the wrong person. Plus, Abbey and Peter reveal their own accidental messaging disasters that they'll never live down.
