Description

On this week’s Ask Me Anything episode of The Therapy Crouch, the chaos levels are high as Abbey and Peter dive head-first into your most unhinged dilemmas. From a roommate who’s become painfully healthy to the point of policing pizza boxes, to a listener who’s accidentally become the full-time admin assistant for her entire extended family, the pair tackle the everyday dramas we all know too well.


There’s also a gym crush spiralling out of control, awkward encounters, debates about deep-pan pizza, and a dog-sitting saga involving a completely unapproved full-body shave. Abbey and Peter share stories from home, from early-morning parenting struggles to haircut catastrophes that still haunt them.


In the Agony Abs, no topic is off-limits — whether it’s boundaries, compliments, or why saying “no” is borderline impossible for some people. It’s relatable, ridiculous, and very Therapy Crouch.
