T’is The (Football) Season: The Ultimate Christmas Chaos Episode
On this week’s festive episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, Crouchy, Chris, and the Sids embrace the Christmas spirit in their own unique style.
From the highs of last year’s live shows and summer events to hilarious reflections on Christmas dinner prep (complete with Starky’s infamous five-year cooking schedule), the lads dive into the quirks and traditions that make the holidays special.
The lads reminisce about their favourite childhood toys, debate retro Christmas Eleven lineups, and even touch on Peter’s surprising recent accolade as the “sexiest pundit.”
With laughter, nostalgia, and a bit of banter inbetween, this episode is a perfect companion whether you’re cooking the turkey, hiding from family chaos, or just looking for a good laugh on Christmas Day.
Oh, and don’t forget to DM Crouchy for that Christmas schedule – it might just
change your life!
