That Peter Crouch Podcast: Back Stronger
 Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

NEW: That Peter Crouch Podcast

SNEAK PEEK: In this clip, Danny Dyer joins the lads to break down his latest film role, where he plays a desperate football agent fighting to keep his career alive.

Danny explains how his new film explored the darker side of the football agent world — the ruthless negotiations, the lack of loyalty in the game, and the pressure that comes with chasing the next big deal.

He lifts the lid on the character he plays: a man fresh out of rehab, clinging onto his final client while his life slowly unravels over the course of a tense, one-room drama shot in Dublin. Danny also reflects on the craft of acting after more than three decades in the industry, addressing the perception that he “just plays himself” and why, for him, the real measure of an actor is simple — getting hired and delivering the job.

From the brutal realities of football agents to the challenge of carrying an entire film largely alone on screen, Danny reveals why this role pushed him in ways he hadn’t experienced before — and why it might be one of the performances he’s most proud of.

Be sure to go and see ‘One Last Deal’ in cinemas now!

SNEAK PEAK | Danny Dyer Becomes a Desperate Football Agent With Nothing Left…

On this week’s episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, the lads are joined by Fulham’s in-form winger and Welsh international Harry Wilson — and there are some unbelievable stories behind his rise.

Harry opens up about the incredible moment his grandad placed a £50 bet on him to play for Wales when he was just 18 months old — a punt that eventually paid out £125,000 when Harry made his debut years later. It’s a story so good it genuinely sounds like a film.

The conversation also dives into Harry’s journey through Liverpool’s academy, signing his first contract at just nine years old, and learning from elite players like James Milner, Adam Lallana, Mohamed Salah, and Roberto Firmino in Jurgen Klopp’s first-team training sessions.

Harry explains the reality of the loan system in football, including the tough spell that nearly derailed his career before a confidence rebuild back at Liverpool helped turn things around.

There are also brilliant insights into the Wales national team, including what it was like playing alongside Gareth Bale and Aaron Ramsey, the electric atmosphere of the Welsh anthem, how Craig Bellamy’s strict standards are shaping the new generation, and Harry reveals his personal favourite goal ever — a stunning free kick at Old Trafford for Derby County.

On top of that, there are of course some classic Crouch pod shenanigans, such as Sid’s surreal story about drinking Bollinger with Brazilian Ronaldo on a ski trip, debating the correct size of shin pads, and Crouchy settles the confusion around a recently surfaced video of him and Messi’s 1v1 in Croydon…

EP. 363 | Harry Wilson: "Everything Silva Promised, Happened." Fulham On FIRE & Wales World Cup Hope

FROM THE VAULT: In this classic clip, Jamie Carragher and Peter Crouch share hilarious stories from inside the Liverpool dressing room, including the moment Crouchy embarrassed himself by unknowingly fancying Xabi Alonso’s partner.

The lads also dive into the elite mentality required to succeed at the very top of football. Carragher reflects on the relentless standards at Liverpool and with England, playing alongside legends like Steven Gerrard, John Terry, Frank Lampard and Wayne Rooney, and why winning games was never enough when the ultimate goal was lifting trophies in May.

They relive the pressure of competing for Champions League glory, giving a brilliant insight into the mindset and culture inside one of football’s biggest clubs.

CLASSIC CLIPS | Carragher & Crouchy: The BRUTAL Liverpool Mentality That Never Let Us Enjoy Winning

On this week’s episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, the lads hand over the reins completely… because you asked, and we answered EVERYTHING.

From the real story behind how the podcast first began at the BBC (yes, it was basically football’s version of One Direction), to nearly hitting 400 episodes and planning something huge for the 10-year anniversary — Pete, Sids and Chris take a proper trip down memory lane.

We dive into the one game Crouchy would replay forever (and the medal that still stings), Sids relives promotion chaos and post-match beers, and the boys get brutally honest about whether they would’ve taken the Saudi payday at the end of their careers.

There’s also Cheltenham madness, Harry Redknapp tip stories, footballers calling their jobs “appearances”, shocking dressing room nicknames, the worst Premier League kits of all time… and somehow, a serious debate about double pudding etiquette.

Plus — is Crouchy officially a free agent in the phone network transfer window?

As always, let us know in the comments:

EP. 362 | Ask Us ANYTHING! Football Regrets, Best Nicknames & A Big Money Move To The Saudi League?

FROM THE VAULT: In this clip, we look back at when Rod Stewart joined the lads to discuss his lifelong love of football, growing up in a football-obsessed household, and the hilarious rivalry he shared with fellow music icon Elton John.

Rod opens up about their competitive friendship in the 70s, outrageous Christmas presents, wild nights before heading off to watch Watford F.C., and the legendary moment Elton had his “Blondes Have More Fun” balloons shot down. He also reflects on scoring a hat-trick at Stamford Bridge during Soccer Six — much to the delight of his mate George Best.

CLASSIC CLIPS | The OUTRAGEOUS Present That Sparked a RIVALRY Between Rod Stewart & Elton John

Les Ferdinand is back — and this one goes everywhere.

From the pressure of wearing the iconic number nine shirt to why modern football has drifted away from two-striker partnerships, Les doesn’t hold back. There’s a proper centre-forward masterclass in here — plus a full dissection of diving, simulation, and why shin pads have basically disappeared.

Yes… we’re starting the campaign to Make Shin Pads Great Again.

We also get stuck into the “blue card” debate, inverted wingers, why no one attacks crosses anymore, and whether football’s gone a bit too nice. Then it’s straight into predictions, the wife’s score calls, and one of the strangest deep dives into mobile phone providers you’ll ever hear on a football podcast.

Part 2 delivers.

EP. 361 | Les Ferdinand: “You Must Have Two Strikers.” The Death Of Two Up Top - Part 2

FROM THE VAULT: One clash. One superstar. One reputation that followed him everywhere.

In this clip, Duncan Ferguson revisits his attitude on-pitch towards David Beckham — and explains what really went through his mind in such heated moments. Known as one of football’s ultimate hard men, Big Dunc doesn’t shy away from the aggression that defined his playing days… but he does open up about the consequences.

Does a former enforcer get judged differently? And can you switch off that mentality once it’s part of who you are?

CLASSIC CLIPS: Duncan Ferguson's CLASH with Beckham & His AGGRESSIVE Match Mentality

On this week’s episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, we’re joined by one of the Premier League’s original centre-forward royalty… Les Ferdinand.

Before the goal compilations, before the Sky Sports montages, before strikers were measured by pressing data and heat maps, there was “Sir Les”. 

QPR icon. Newcastle hero. The man leading the line when the Premier League still felt brand new. A proper No.9. Power, presence, goals everywhere he went. If you grew up in the 90s, you knew exactly what Les Ferdinand meant.

He joins Pete, Sids and Chris to talk about the journey from West London non-league graft to becoming one of the most feared forwards in the country. There’s the unbelievable story of starting out as a goalkeeper, the Turkey move that changed his mentality forever, and the sliding doors moment with Manchester United that could have rewritten football history. 

We get into loyalty, ambition, dressing room politics and the brutal advice from Ray Wilkins that stuck with him for life. It’s honest, funny, reflective and packed with the kind of insight only someone who’s lived it can give.

We’ve split our conversation Les into two parts, and after we transition out of the nostalgia fuelled Part 1, things immediately descend into remote chaos.

We build up to Macclesfield’s FA Cup tie and what it could mean for the pod, update the leaderboard as the pressure ramps up, and dive into this week’s Paddy Power predictions with a North London Derby thrown into the mix. There’s a live package opened on air that nobody fully understands, some technical mishaps, a bit of shouting about scores, and the sort of disorder that only seems to happen when we’re not all in the same room.

Part 2 with Les drops next week. Trust us, you’ll want it.

00:00 – Intro: One of the Premier League’s original No.9s

02:12 – Early career doubts & never expecting to go pro

05:48 – Growing up in West London & early football influences

08:36 – Playing as a GOALKEEPER for three years

11:04 – The hat-trick that changed his position forever

14:22 – Non-league graft & the reality of rejection

17:10 – FA Vase Final at Wembley before the big time

20:45 – The move to Turkey: why he said yes

23:58 – First training session… 30,000+ fans watching

26:41 – Battling imposter syndrome abroad

29:55 – The mindset shift that transformed him

33:18 – Returning to QPR a completely different striker

37:42 – Becoming one of the Premier League’s most feared forwards

EP. 360 | Les Ferdinand: “I Was Minutes From Man United…” From Goalkeeper To 90’s Prem Icon - Part 1

FROM THE VAULT: One line. One press conference. One football meme that refuses to die. It can't go on like this, can it?

It can.

In this clip, Mick McCarthy revisits the now-legendary moment that gave us one of football’s most quoted phrases. What started as an honest, off-the-cuff response during a tough run of results quickly became a viral classic — and a brutally accurate summary of life as a football manager.

Mick explains the real meaning behind the words, lifting the lid on the pressure, fatigue, and mental battles that come with managing when results aren’t going your way. From dealing with the media to keeping belief inside the dressing room, this is a candid insight into how quickly things can spiral — and how, sometimes, football just keeps finding new ways to surprise you.

The lads reflect on why the quote struck such a nerve with fans, managers, and players alike, and why it still perfectly captures the chaos, humour, and harsh reality of the game today.

CLASSIC CLIPS: How Mick McCarthy Went VIRAL With Just Two Simple Words

On this week’s episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, Pete, Sids and Chris open the floodgates on everything that makes fans mutter those three sacred words… “the game’s gone.” From goalkeepers stubbornly playing out from the back to laser shows, forced atmospheres, half-and-half scarves and walking around the club badge, nothing is off limits.

The lads debate whether modern football presentation has gone too far, question where respect actually begins and ends, and ask if tradition is slowly being replaced by gimmicks. There’s also a passionate rant about why Transfer Deadline Day has lost its magic, why phones on the pitch should be banned, and whether celebrating against your old club is actually disrespectful.

So… what do you think belongs on the “Game’s Gone” board? Let us know in the comments.

EP. 359 | We Rank Your “Game’s Gone” Submissions - “Utter Woke Nonsense!”

FROM THE VAULT: In this clip, Gary Oldman opens up about his lifelong love for Manchester United — from being mesmerised by George Best as a kid to watching the modern game lose its sense of loyalty and identity.

The Oscar winner reflects on the era of the first XI, players who stayed for decades, and why today’s constant churn has changed the relationship between fans and clubs. 

He also shares why texting Sir Alex Ferguson still feels surreal, and critique's that infamous Casillero del Diablo advert starring Wayne Rooney; Ryan Giggs and Patrick Evra... and the Oscar goes to who?
