On this week’s episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, Pete, Chris and Sid welcome former Arsenal goalkeeper Graham Stack, who enjoyed a wild career with clubs including Reading, Wolves, Hibs, Barnet, and Kerala Blasters. Known as much for his no-nonsense style as his shot-stopping, Stack lifts the lid on some of football’s most infamous behind-the-scenes moments, including what really happened in the dressing room during Arsenal’s 03/04 season.Stack reflects on the chaos and camaraderie of his playing days, including infamous training ground bust-ups, dressing-room scraps, and wild fan encounters abroad. He also reveals his latest venture—organising a one-of-a-kind boxing night where ex-footballers swap the pitch for the ring, raising funds for charities close to his heart such as the Willow Foundation. Expect Stack’s infamously outrageous stories, brutal honesty, and the kind of behind-the-scenes insight only a journeyman goalkeeper with tales from Arsenal’s Invincibles to non-league can deliver.

In a powerful, funny, and refreshingly honest chat, Henri explains the moment he realised something was wrong, the speed of his surgery, and how football banter helped him process it all.The lads also dive into Henri’s career journey through Arsenal’s elite youth system, wild loan spells at Scunthorpe and Norwich, and his glory years at Forest.

There's chaos over pancake maths, debates about walking stats, a very public golfing humiliation, and an absolutely mental story involving a premier league legend gifting Chris Stark’s mum some cheese (yes, really).There are shoutouts to podcast icon Tucker’s 19, beefs with rival podcasts, and even a passionate debate on gas vs. charcoal.Play along, keep score, and let us know in the comments how you did.

On this week’s episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, Pete and Chris (with Sids still on the beach) dive headfirst into the hilarious and often cringe world of footballers in adverts. From Crouchy’s proudest Pringles moment to the beauty of the Jamie Vardy Thailand ad, nothing is off limits.The boys reminisce over iconic commercials—from the Carlsberg Sunday League masterpiece to Owen’s iconic Dubai helicopter advert—and question whether footballers should ever really act again.Crouchy shares tales from the set with Fabregas and Anelka, while the lads dissect Cristiano Ronaldo’s truly bewildering Shopee ad and discuss the genius of Burger King's Stevenage FIFA hack.We also hear from listeners: should clubs pick players based on acting skills?

Trialled for Southampton 1978 and had the time of my life. A trip to Wembley, Alllan Ball, Laurie McMennemy, Charlie George. And a bunch of wonderful players. The apprentices included Reuban Agboola, Steve Baker and Mark Witlock. No wonder i didn't make it. The insight you give in the interviews, is as it was, The boot room is where the apprentices got to know each other and coaches could discuss the squads. Keep coming back stronger. All the best to your families. Mark , Sydney Australia
