Knob Shopping, Renovation Chaos & Abbey and Peter Face Their Biggest Parenting Challenge Yet…

Over deze aflevering

<p>On today's episode of <strong>The Therapy Crouch</strong>, Peter and Abbey are back together from opposite sides of the world, with Pete still in Los Angeles covering the Club World Cup while Abbey holds down the fort in Portugal... and it's fair to say long distance is still bringing plenty of chaos.</p><br><p>The pair kick things off by catching up after time apart, with Peter showing off his questionable LA haircut before the conversation quickly spirals into expensive celebrity barbers, World Cup stories and Abbey receiving an unexpected history lesson on Maradona's infamous "Hand of God".</p><br><p>Elsewhere, Abbey opens up about a brand new parenting challenge as the couple navigate life with a 15-year-old daughter and the reality of teenage boys beginning to appear on the scene. They also tackle one listener's noisy partner, another whose role play was completely derailed by an overly committed builder delivering a full loft conversion quote, and revisit the legendary "lingerie crab" story after the couple write back with a surprising update... and some very happy news.</p><br><p>There's also a fiery renovation debate as Peter discovers more surprise bills arriving for their new house, admits his only contribution has been choosing the boilers, and accuses Abbey of going "knob shopping" without him.</p><br><p>Plus, Peter reflects honestly on life after professional football, why he rarely plays anymore despite still loving the game, whether they've already "peaked" in life, and why finding new passions has become more important than ever.</p><br><p>If you want to submit an Agony Ab or Ask Me Anything question to the podcast, hit the link below:</p><br><p>https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1rAKD...</p><br><p>00:00 - Intro</p><p>01:00 - Peter explains why every footballer ends up with the same World Cup haircut</p><p>02:25 - Expensive LA barbers</p><p>03:15 - World Cup excitement and talking about Kane’s goal</p><p>04:05 - Peter tells Abbey the full story of Maradona's infamous "Hand of God"</p><p>06:55 - Parenting worries begin as Abbey opens up</p><p>08:00 - The realities of teenage girls and navigating dating as parents</p><p>10:05 - World Cup moments and England excitement</p><p>11:00 - Peter's Weekly Whine: surprise renovation bills keep arriving from home</p><p>12:20 - Boilers, driveway lights and why Peter feels left out of designing the house</p><p>13:25 - Knob shopping</p><p>15:10 - Peter reveals the only part of the new house he actually wants control over</p><p>16:25 - Listener update: the famous "lingerie crab" mystery finally gets solved</p><p>18:15 - Engagement news after one of the podcast's strangest ever listener dilemmas</p><p>19:20 - Peter wearing women’s clothes and the conversation gets ridiculous</p><p>20:00 - Abbey's Love Island lookalike and Gaz’s invitation to a Fourth of July LA pool party</p><p>22:00 - Agony Ab: what do you do when your boyfriend is a bedroom screamer?</p><p>24:45 - Long distance life and why this week's episode became a catch-up instead</p><p>26:10 - Former athlete struggles: does Peter still miss playing professional football?</p><p>28:00 - Peter admits football frustrates him now and explains why he rarely plays</p><p>29:00 - Finding new passions through golf and life after football</p><p>30:00 - Have Peter and Abbey already "peaked" in life?
