Summary

On this week’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, Peter and Abbey dive into the chaos, comedy, and controversy surrounding Mother’s Day, while Peter desperately tries to navigate the unwritten rules of making the day special—without accidentally putting his foot in it.

From the hilarious debate over what actually constitutes an acceptable Mother’s Day gift (is a lie-in really enough?) to the listener stories of husbands who spectacularly missed the mark, this episode is packed with laughs, frustration, and the ultimate relationship truths.

Plus, Abbey reveals her latest impulse decision involving two Shetland ponies and three sheep, while Peter gets grilled over his very suspicious ‘pre-golf swim’. The Agony Abs section is all about sibling rivalry, freeloading family members, and the eternal question: why don’t stepmums get enough Mother’s Day recognition?!

0:00.0	This episode is sponsored by Liddle, the fresh produce retailer of the year.
0:04.3	Right, Ab, let's be honest, getting the kids to eat their fruit and veg is a full-time job itself.
0:09.4	Oh yeah, 100%. One minute, they love carrots, the next minute they're acting like you've served them actual poison.
0:15.2	Exactly, but one thing that makes it easier is having the freshest, tastiest produce in the house.
0:21.3	Well, you know me, I am obsessed with making the kids eat the five a day.
0:26.7	You know, I try and pack as much vegetables into every meal.
0:30.4	Do you know what?
0:30.7	I find, you know, if I'm making like a spaghetti bolognese or a lasagna,
0:34.7	I just chop everything up so tiny.
0:37.6	It's kind of, it's hidden. But all kids are quite good. They love the cabbage.
0:41.7	They love broccoli. Johnny loves his broccoli like so much. It's like it's one of his
0:45.7	favorite things. And I make a lot of soups. I make a lot of veggie soups. And just literally
0:51.4	every single thing I've got in the fridge, I just whack it in, boil it, a bit of bone brass.
0:57.3	Well, Chris Stark said I had the best soupies ever had.
1:00.1	Yeah, that is true.
1:01.5	But the thing that makes a real difference is having proper fresh fruit and veg in the house.
1:06.3	That's why this episode is sponsored by Liddle, the fresh produce retailer of the year.
1:12.4	Liddle's fruit and veg is so fresh. Whether it's juicy apples for the kids, lunchboxes,
1:17.6	crunchy peppers for a quick stair fry, or let's be honest, a sneaky late night snack when they've
1:22.9	finally gone to bed. And this isn't just us saying it. Lidl's been recognised at the retail industry awards for
1:28.9	fresh produce retailer of the year. So they're not just patting themselves on the back. It's the real
1:33.6	deal, babe. And if for whatever reason you're not 100% happy, you're covered with Lidl's fresh promise.
