AD | In this very special Father's Day bonus episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, made possible by Courvoisier, Peter Crouch is joined solo by his mentor, former boss, and true father figure in football - the legendary football manager Harry Redknapp. From Spurs, Portsmouth, and Southampton, Harry managed Crouchy across three decades of his career.The two dive deep into the moments that defined their journeys together: transfers that almost didn't happen, career-saving confidence boosts, Premier League relegation battles, Champions League highs, and Redknapp's unique man-management style that helped turn raw talent into England internationals.They share stories of Defoe, Modrić, Bale, Di Canio, and the changing face of football management, from player recruitment to youth development.It's a laugh-filled, honest, and nostalgic look at the beautiful game, and a heartfelt tribute to the managers and father figures who shape careers—and lives, thanks to Courvoisier!

On today's episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, Chris has done a runner to catch his son's first nativity play and has left Crouchy and Sids flying solo - as they talk preparation for their upcoming go karting showdown next week. The Karting challenge, which was born out of Sids throwing down the gauntlet to ‘challenge Bridgey' got the lads thinking about some of the toughest challenges they have faced in their careers, both on and off the pitch. The lads discuss the early pressures of dedicating your life to being a footballer as your mates hit the town on the lash, proving your worth when breaking into first team squads and the mental toll that being sidelined through injury can have on a player. The lads also discuss how they now find themselves challenging their own children and the next generation to get the best out of themselves and the different challenges this new wave of athletes face compared to them.
