Mother’s Day Special! Abbey’s Mum Joins the Pod, Pete’s Gift Fail and Mother’s Day Confessions
3/10/202654 min
On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, it’s a Mother’s Day special on the podcast as Abbey and Peter welcome a very special guest onto the couch — Abbey’s mum Karen. The episode kicks off with Pete admitting to a classic husband fail after forgetting Abbey’s very first Mother’s Day which sparks a debate about the pressure of getting the perfect gift and whether husbands should actually be responsible for organising the day at all.
Abbey also reveals that she’s been secretly editing Pete’s flower orders over the years to make sure she actually gets the bouquet she wants, while Pete defends himself saying the expectations around special occasions are getting out of hand.
Later on Karen joins the pod and shares stories about Abbey growing up, what she was really like as a child and why she always knew her daughter would end up performing and entertaining. We also hear about pregnancy cravings, family traditions in Liverpool and what Mother’s Day looks like once your kids grow up and start their own families.
In the Agony Abs we hear from a mum who secretly hates Mother’s Day and another listener wondering if her husband should still be helping the kids organise gifts even now they’re teenagers.

Hey guys, what's up? Coach Knox here asking, what are you reaching for? If you're a smoker or a vaper, you're reaching for nicotine satisfaction and all the problems that come with smoking or vaping. But you could be reaching for ZYN nicotine pouches. Let's talk about what ZYN helps you reach for. First, it helps with variety. Ten flavored and unflavored ZYN varieties in either three milligram or six milligram strengths. And also because ZYN is smoke-free, you don't have to think about lingering smells or clunky devices. Then there's living life on your terms, where you don't have to step away from good times because you need to smoke or vape, where you can be part of every moment. And hey, there's more. ZYN offers a robust rewards program, opportunities to break free from your routine, and membership in a unique nationwide community. Whatever you're reaching for, reach for it with America's number one nicotine pouch brand. Find your ZYN at zyn.com. That's Z-Y-N.com. Warning, this product contains nicotine. Nicotine is an addictive chemical.
