On today's Episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, the lads are lifting the lid on exactly what happens in the gym at a Premier League Club. We hear about the players that like to avoid the gym at all costs yet seem to maintain a god like physique all year round as well as others who are more concerned with making your ears bleed than achieving a PB on bench press. Crouchy also talks about how there is now more emphasis not just on staying physically fit but mentally fit in today's game compared to when him and Steve where still in the dressing room. Chris, who is currently on his own fitness and well being journey also talks about how getting down the gym is changing his outlook on life. In other business, the lads have a very informative message from Countryfile's very own Adam Henson who explains why Anderson had exactly the right idea when putting his money into cattle and the lads answer your burning question on which football ground provides the best food when the lads are on comms…Chumbawamba00:00 Intro05:38 Adam Henson08:20 Evolution of Gym Culture in Football16:18 Man Mana-gymt20:32 Gym Flicks 25:21 Mental Fitness31:07 ‘He is a freak'41:23 Lost in Translation44:33 Goalie Hat50:32 Tony's Pie and MashSubscribe to https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFULBvlxNWW8cWsrV6fGrcwFollow our Clips page https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLNBLB3xr3LyiyAkhZEtiAA For more Peter Crouch: Twitter - https://twitter.com/petercrouch Therapy Crouch - https://www.youtube.com/@thetherapycrouch For more Chris Stark Twitter - https://twitter.com/Chris_StarkInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/chrisstark/For more Steve Sidwell Twitter - https://twitter.com/sjsidwell Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/stevesidwell14 Hosted on Acast.

Farmer and BBC Countryfile presenter Adam Henson talks about rural mental health and the personal reason behind setting up his new rural mental health podcast 'Keeping on Track' after losing a farming friend to suicide.

He said education at an early age was key to understanding the food we eat and what farmers do and strongly advocates for a GCSE in farming and land use.

After falling in love with his wife in the Cotswolds roughly 20 years ago, Alex has found his niche in producing fruit and vegetables as well as cheese for Morrisons and Britpop sparkling wine.

If you enjoy this podcast, consider buying me a coffee: https://adamstoner.com/support World leaders have an uncanny knack for making even the most exciting of things thoroughly depressing. Given their rhetoric, you'd be forgiven for thinking that humankind is in no better position at the end of this year than we were last, but that's not the case at all. Here's a reminder of what happened: JANUARY: A riot at the US Capitol, a new President of the United States. I pledge to learn more about space, planets, and the movement of the stars and then quickly forgot about it. 86 countries sign a treaty to ban nuclear weapons. The coronavirus vaccine programme begins in earnest in the UK. FEBRUARY: NASA's Perseverance and Ingenuity rovers land on Mars. I sign up to HEY, the email service from Basecamp, and it totally revolutionises the way I work and communicate. I kit the home out with Philips Hue lightbulbs, Eve cameras, and more smart-tech. MARCH: Ever Given jackknifes itself in the Suez Canal. The remains of a woman butchered at the hands of an off-duty police officer causes outrage across the country, reigniting conversation around violence against women. I get vaccinated; a syringe symbolising the slow-at-first-then-all-at-once return to some kind of normal. With the team behind The Week Junior's Science+Nature magazine, we make Mysteries of Science. APRIL: I play croquet. I take up a bunch more freelance work. The number of confirmed COVID cases passes 150 million; the number of vaccinations surpass 1 billion. Prince Philip dies. MAY : Netherlands orders Shell to align its carbon emissions with the Paris Climate accord. The Eurovision Song contest reunites nations around the continent; it's the first since the UK exited the EU. We come last. I visit Adam Henson's Cotswold Farm Park, SEA LIFE, do an at-home escape room, take on an assault course, do archery, ride a heritage railway, and walk in a forest used as a set for some of the biggest movies in the world. I turn 26 and take some time offline… JUNE, JULY & AUGUST: Restrictions ease. Football fever grips the nation. The number of vaccinated people exceeds three billion. I lay the foundations for a log cabin in my garden and bury a time capsule within its concrete base. Massive floods devastate large regions of Europe. The event is attributed to a slowed jet-stream caused by climate change. The IPCC unequivocally states that climate change is human-caused, widespread, rapid, and intensifying. Two decades of foreign policy fail as the Afghan government surrenders to the Taliban; the US withdraws, ending 20 years of occupation. I come up with an idea that fulfils my new year's resolution to learn more about space and spend the next quarter planning for it. SEPTEMBER: I visit the Science Museum, We The Curious in Bristol, the Royal Observatory Greenwich, all for this project that launches in four days time. I sold my car. El Salvador becomes the first country to accept Bitcoin as an official currency. Inspiration4 is launched by Space X and becomes the first all-civilian spaceflight. I come back online and write a piece for Science+Nature all about the Overview Effect. OCTOBER: I go to the cinema for the first time in two years to see James Bond. I visit a wedding. I stroll through history by walking the Ridgeway, treading a route that's been used by thousands for millennia. NOVEMBER: World leaders gathered in Glasgow for the COP26 climate conference and emit nothing but hot air. I try NaNoWriMo – National Novel Writing Month – and tap out 14,000 words all about humankind and its attempts to project our condition into the universe. DECEMBER: News of a new coronavirus variant seizes headlines once more. World leaders begin to hermit their kingdoms again. Vaccination efforts intensify, case numbers quintuple. I go to two Christmas parties and get a booster jab. The biggest space telescope ever built opens a new era in astronomical exploration. Our collective human story has always been marred with setbacks and challenges but 2021 is proof that the wheels of human progress will restlessly turn. It was also a reminder that it's up to us to steer the vehicle. You'll next hear from me in just a few days time on Tuesday, January 4th 2022 where I'm going to tell you about that exciting project I mentioned. Happy New Year.

Tim Hayward embarks on the big pig road trip to meet some of the people who devote their lives to rare breeds of British pigs. He speaks to Adam Henson, best-known as a presenter on BBC One's Countryfile, about why pigs like the Gloucester Old Spot and Tamworth are important to the heritage of the UK, and explains the work his late Father Joe did to keep these breeds alive. Two of Adam's Tamworth pigs became the starting point for brothers John and Nick Francis who came to pig-keeping fresh out of university and now produce meat for a number of Michelin-starred restaurants. Robert Buttle gives Tim slices of artisan charcuterie which he produces from his Large Blacks and Oxford Sandys and explains why pork of this quality needs to be treated like the finest steak. Tim also meets the next generation of pig keepers at Holme Grange School in Berkshire and discovers that showing pigs is not as easy as it looks. Producer: Toby Field.

Libby Purves meets farmer and broadcaster Adam Henson; writer Paul Spike; pilot Tracey Curtis-Taylor and theatre student Joe Langdon. Tracey Curtis-Taylor is a pilot who last year followed Amy Johnson's flight from the UK to Australia in her classic open cockpit biplane, Spirit of Artemis. Earlier this year the self-styled bird in a biplane attempted a round-the-world flight which ended when her vintage biplane lost power and crashed after take-off in the Arizona desert. She plans to be back in the skies when her plane is fully repaired. Paul Spike is a writer and journalist. His book Photographs of My Father was first published in 1973, seven years after his father, The Reverend Robert - Bob - Spike, was murdered. Bob Spike was a US church minister who was active in the civil rights movement in 1960s America alongside Martin Luther King Jr. His murder was never solved. Published by Knopf, Photographs of my Father has been reissued to mark 50 years since Bob Spike's death. Joe Langdon is studying theatre studies at Mountview Academy of Theatre Arts in London. His interest in drama was piqued when he was an inmate at a young offenders' institution. He attended workshops organised by the Bristol Old Vic as part of its outreach programme which helps young and disenfranchised people express themselves. This year the Bristol Old Vic celebrates its 250th anniversary. Adam Henson is a farmer and presenter of Adam's Farm on the BBC's Countryfile programme. He took over the Cotswold farm from his father, Joe, who as a champion of rare breeds, opened the Cotswold Farm Park in 1971 and was founder chairman of the Rare Breeds Survival Trust. In his memoir, Like Farmer, Like Son Adam delves into his family's theatrical lineage - his grandfather was comedian and actor Leslie Henson and his uncle is the actor Nicky Henson. Like Farmer, Like Son is published by BBC Books. Producer: Paula McGinley.

The New Forest, with its beautiful Beaulieu River, was a hunting ground created for William the Conqueror a thousand years ago. Since then the river has provided the perfect secret landing spot for smugglers. In this VT insert, created for an episode of Countryfile, Matt Baker and Julia Bradbury talk to local historians and experts about the details of criminal activity, both past and present, in the picturesque New Forest area and its watery marshes. Directors like Andrew Painten must script, shoot and edit-produce around five films as VT inserts for each Countryfile episode. Along the way, Andrew has help from his highly skilled team. Researcher Claire Blindell, camera operator Stef Otto, editor Matt Taylor, producer Andrea Buffery and presenters Matt Baker, Adam Henson and Ellie Harrison all help to get the films like these through pre-production, production and post-production stages. You can see the work that went into making films like this, as well as pick up production tips and techniques, by watching our other films in the Countryfile series.

In this Countryfile film, Ellie Harrison is in the New Forest, testing her fitness as she finds out about adventure racing, and Matt Baker visits historic ship-building village Buckler’s Hard. This is the final product of weeks of research, production and editing. Directors like Andrew Painten must script, shoot and edit-produce around five films as VT inserts for each Countryfile episode.

A factual TV presenter has a very interesting relationship with the director. The director has often spent weeks or months planning and scripting from the office. A lot can change when you arrive on location. Pre-conceived ideas have to be changed when the weather, contributors or stories don’t really work in reality. Matt Baker believes that, in his experience, compromise is the key to a successful shoot. Use your ideas and your script as a framework but don’t be afraid to change your plans. It’s better to capture the atmosphere of where you are and what is unfolding on the day, plus creative problem solving often results in great TV. Resident Countryfile farmer, Adam Henson, believes that his memories of starting out and being new to TV have helped him appreciate what a strange world it can seem for new comers. It is important to remember this and have empathy with new contributors or new presenters. Take care to explain what you have planned, so they can understand why constant resetting and repitition is necessary. Once they realise that filming a variety of shots helps make a better film, they will be able to relax and contribute properly. One director suggested that Adam talk to the camera as if it is an old mate. This advice has helped him to relax and talk normally when on camera. The director should set the tone on a location shoot. It is their job to create a relaxed atmosphere resulting in a productive environment. Ellie Harrison likes directors who are collaborative and keen to incorporate ideas from the whole team. She also believes directors should have authority and be good at communicating. A good director can put contributors at ease, especially if they aren’t used to making TV. It also helps to explain what’s going to happen so they don’t feel excluded or overwhelmed. Finally, Ellie favours creative direction, similar to techniques used by drama directors. Ellie appreciates personal feedback from the director on her style and delivery of each piece to camera. However, it's important to remember that each presenter responds differently, so directors must be able to adapt to the individual ways of working.
