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.
