EP. 405 | That Roundup Episode: Our USA World Cup Plans, Forfeit Reveal & Arsenal’s UCL Heartbreak
6/3/202642 min
On this week's episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, Pete, Chris, and Sids take a look back at another unforgettable season of TPCP before turning their attention to the summer ahead and the upcoming World Cup.
The lads relive some of the standout moments from the last 12 months, including unforgettable appearances from Jürgen Klopp, Gary Oldman, Danny Dyer, James Milner, Marcus Mumford, Tony Pulis, Mick McCarthy and many more. They debate which guests delivered the biggest surprises, who they'd love to get on next season, and celebrate just how far the podcast has come.
There's also plenty of classic nonsense along the way. Pete reveals the outrageous pub and barbecue setup he's inherited at his new house, The lads accidentally creates a disaster with a congratulatory baby card, and Sids shares the incredible story of his son's hole-in-one that has already become family folklore.
The boys revisit some of the best "Game's Gone" moments of the year, discuss the future of deadline day chaos, and react to Arsenal's agonising Champions League Final defeat, asking whether Mikel Arteta's side were only inches away from football immortality.
With World Cup plans now firmly underway, the gang reflect on one of their biggest seasons yet and look ahead to what promises to be a summer of chaos, football, and unforgettable stories.
As always, leave your comments below and let us know who you'd love to see in the Chumbawambar next season.
