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!

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…

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.

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:

- What game would YOU replay?
- Would you take the Saudi move?
- And how many “appearances” have you made at your job? 👀

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.
