“Rooney Threw His Drink On Me!” - Abbey’s Hilarious Childhood Story & Liverpool Dressing Room Tales

On this week’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, chaos is very much the theme as Abbey and Pete dive straight into tash turmoil, surprise mood swings and a Fashion Awards night that left Abbey fuming in her fleece at home.


We get a full breakdown of Pete’s accidental “golf-club-after-party” at their house, while Abbey confesses to the most unhinged hangover day of her life—complete with a Chinese and a Big Mac.


The pair also open up about a genuinely frightening night when their tiny puppy had to be rushed to an emergency vet, before lightening the mood with the funniest listener messages about accents, school slang and childhood run-ins—including Abbey being hit in the head with a Coke can by a young Wayne Rooney.


Names turn into a battlefield this week too, as a listener’s football-inspired baby dilemma sends Abbey and Pete spiralling into their own stories about Jack’s almost-name, why Rafa was banned, and Abbey’s unexpected crush on Phil Foden’s footwork.


In the Agony Abs, things get more emotional as they tackle trauma-based parental anxiety, hidden dating history, and the disastrous consequences of snooping through your partner’s phone.


If you need laughter, honesty and a bit of relationship chaos—this week’s pod has everything.
