On today's episode of The Therapy Crouch, Abbey and Peter are still living their best lives in Portugal… although Pete's ego may have taken a slight battering after a disastrous mixed doubles tennis tournament against a group of senior citizens who absolutely wiped the floor with him. Abbey wastes no time exposing exactly what went wrong, including Pete's “respectful” approach that spectacularly backfired.The couple also dive into one of the biggest causes of relationship tension — diary planning. From golf days and family logistics to who really controls the calendar at home, Abbey explains why every single plan now has to go through Claire before marital chaos erupts. Plus, the gang discuss relationship “icks”, going upstairs two at a time, hobbies couples should definitely keep separate, and whether Oasis officially counts as “Dad Rock”.Elsewhere, Abbey reveals her surprising obsession with David Beckham's vegetable garden and chickens, Peter reminisces about Oasis nostalgia and Desert Island albums, and the team debate what books and music they'd take if stranded forever. There's also talk of reality TV habits, holiday advice, and why some things are simply better enjoyed without your partner.00:00 Portugal Detox & Party Recovery 01:14 Peter Gets Humbled At Tennis 03:00 “Consistency Is Key In Tennis” 04:31 Ross Update & Listener Messages 04:58 Abbey Hates Seeing Pete Lose 05:26 Abbey's Fear Of Tennis Lessons 06:27 Abbey Opens Up About Childhood & Sport 07:20 Abbey vs Peter: Ultimate Sports Day 08:31 The Couple Argument Everyone Has 10:11 Abbey's Strict Family Diary System 12:03 Why Busy Couples Always Clash 12:49 The Weirdest Relationship Ick 13:28 Running Up Stairs Debate 15:14 Abbey Reveals Her Biggest Insecurity 15:45 Abbey Discovers A “Normal” Listener 16:26 Abbey's Celebrity Lookalike Debate 18:05 Couples Sharing Hobbies Goes Wrong 19:14 TV Shows They Refuse To Watch Together 20:37 Hunger Games & Comfort Movies 21:39 The Best Holiday Advice Ever 22:52 Tail's.com Ad Read 24:28 Desert Island Dilemmas Begin 25:35 The One Book They'd Save Forever 27:31 Roald Dahl & Childhood Reading Memories 28:07 Abbey's Disturbing Book Confession 30:15 The Secret To Getting Kids Reading 30:55 Desert Island Albums 31:41 Oasis, Nostalgia & Dad Rock Arguments 34:04 Abbey's Beckham Garden Obsession 35:34 Doomscrolling & “Ignorance Is Bliss” 36:19 Peter's James Bond Fantasy Life 36:40 Peter's Visit To Eton 37:49 Inside Eton's Incredible Traditions 39:15 What Makes Privileged Kids Different? 41:02 The Reality Of Elite Schools 42:40 The Team Debate Luxury & Success 44:18 What They'd Actually Miss On A Desert Island 46:03 Desert Island Guilty Pleasures 47:51 Holiday Packing Essentials 49:20 Things Couples Secretly Judge Each Other For 51:08 Their Most Addictive Habits 52:44 Listener Dilemmas Return 54:33 Final Portugal Reflections 56:17 EndTo contact us:Email: thetherapycrouch@gmail.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thetherapycrouchpodcast/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thetherapycrouchWebsite: https://thetherapycrouch.com/For more from Peterhttps://twitter.com/petercrouchFor more from Abbeyhttps://www.instagram.com/abbeyclancyOur clips channelhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZntcv96YhN8IvMAKsz4Dbg Hosted on Acast.

This week on The Liverpool Comedy ImprovCast, Iain trials a brand new format: Desert Island Improv, putting friends of the show Dave and Ebe firmly in the spotlight. In this episode, the pair are asked to imagine themselves stranded on a very specific kind of desert island, where survival depends entirely on improv. Each guest chooses the improv skill or format they couldn't live without, the improv person they'd want alongside them, and a key improv memory they'd take with them into exile. Along the way there's plenty of chat about their journeys in improv and the people and influences that have shaped them. Naturally, there's also time for a bit of appreciation for the fundamentals, including the ever-essential Yes And, and how it shows up in their work and thinking. A warm, funny and reflective chat with two brilliant improvisers, and a reminder that even on a desert island, someone is probably still trying to justify a completely unearned character choice. So sit back, relax and enjoy our first visit to Desert Island Improv.
Who would you most likely choose to be your desert island companion? In this studio, the answer is NOT obvious. And, can you own a dead body? Who's voice would be your inner monologue? These questions and more.
GB News continues to evade toothless regulatory bodies and Pete's dad continues to tune in. It turns out Luke's met plenty of the presenters, many of whom are, unsurprisingly, “characters”.Elsewhere, a dinghy-based story from Luke gives way to a discussion about desert islands, both real and imagined.

Kirsty replaces our treasured centenarian to talk all things Naturey on Desert Island Discs
Here's the picture: it's the most unusual shipwreck in history. Somehow or other you have ended up alone on a desert island with just your harp. It's interesting to consider how this might have happened. Did you swim to shore after the shipwreck with your harp strapped to your back? Or maybe you used it like a raft and your harp is what saved you. But somehow, against all the odds and flying in the face of reality, you ended up on this island with your harp. Even more amazing is that your harp is in tune, no strings have broken, and the weather is exactly what your harp needs to stay happy. But just wait - there's more. As you explore the island, you discover a charming hut which will be a perfect shelter for you and your harp, and when you enter the hut, you discover a harp bench, a tuning key, and a music stand. As you move closer, you realize that there is some sheet music on the stand, three pieces of music in fact, and they just happen to be your three favorite pieces in the world. Wow. Unbelievable. Alright, yes, this is unbelievable. This harp version of Gilligan's Island isn't going to happen. But thinking about your three "desert island" pieces is fun. Which pieces would you pick, if you could only choose three pieces to have with you? And what do those pieces say about your harp journey so far, and your harp dreams for your future? Your desert island pieces can actually help you focus or refocus on what is important to you in your music. They can be a source of motivation or inspiration or growth or all of the above. They are both a reflection of what music means to you and where your harp happiness lies. Thinking about what your desert island pieces would be can tell you a lot about what you love, what you do well and what you should be doing next. If you're like me, the choice isn't an easy one. I have closets and shelves and cabinets filled with music. Just picking three pieces feels impossible, but I have done it, and I will share my choices with you, as well as tell you why those choices are important to me, not only because they are pieces I love, but because they remind me of what I need to be doing right now in my playing. It's a fun scenario to think about and I think you'll enjoy it and find a little enlightenment too.

Could you survive on a desert island? Award-winning writer Francesca de Tores did just that - except it was by choice, doing research for her new book, Cast Away. She put herself in the shoes of marooned Scottish sailor Alexander Selkirk (the inspiration for Robinson Crusoe) who was abandoned by his own shipmates on a remote, uninhabited island with only wild goats and cats for company. Cast Away asks the question - who are you when everything is stripped away? Francesca tells Susie what the experience taught her about herself.

In this powerful episode of She Who Dares Wins, Michelle is joined by Sophie, a trail runner and adventurer who traded everyday comfort for an intense social and survival experiment on a Maldivian desert island.Sophie explains how:A lifetime of running, from competitive school races to joyful trail running after university, set the foundation for bigger adventures.A wild night on the dance floor at Love Trails festival – googly eyes, sequins, and all – led to meeting Danny and joining his crew on a 10‑day, 208‑mile run across Iceland.That Iceland experience became the gateway to something even more extreme: a “human experiment” where 20 people were dropped on a desert island for six days, with only two days of survival training.Together, Michelle and Sophie explore:Survival skills & the reality of ‘paradise'The basics of surviving on an atoll: coconuts, fish, and crabs as the only real food sources.Learning to climb coconut trees, use palm fronds for shelter, and build “questionable” ladders.Spear fishing, line fishing with makeshift plastic‑bottle rods, and using crabs as bait.Food, ethics, and our disconnection from where food comes fromThe emotional impact of killing the animals you eat and facing that reality head‑on.Why wasting a single fish felt so heavy when you'd speared it yourself.How the experience shifted Sophie's relationship with meat, fish, and supermarket food back home.Hunger, morale, and the “emergency rice” dilemmaThe physical and mental crash around day two as the group struggled with heat, exertion, and very few calories.The group vote to bring in emergency rice, and how simply knowing there was a back‑up completely changed morale.The fascinating “tribes” that formed between rice eaters vs. non‑rice eaters, and what that revealed about identity and pride.Community, leadership and group dynamicsHow the group decided to appoint Kelly, an Alaskan hunter and fisher, as a leader – and what it means to “lead from the back”.The challenge of finding enough food for 20 people vs. surviving alone.How everyone eventually “found their groove” and unique role in the micro‑society on the island.Phones, presence, and creative freedomWhat happens when you are suddenly phone‑free and offline: the initial withdrawal, then complete freedom.Discovering how much time and joy re‑appears when you're carving coconuts, playing games, swimming and simply talking – with no schedule and no notifications.The struggle of bringing those lessons back into a “normal” life that's busy, structured and always online.Deep connection and telling the truth about yourselfWhy deep, face‑to‑face connection around a campfire is nothing like “social media connection”.How the island gave people space to tell their real stories, share things they'd held in for years, and be met without judgment.Sophie's biggest personal takeaway: the confidence that she can show up as her full, slightly weird, authentic self and still be accepted.The episode closes with a powerful reflection on what Sophie will leave on the island, what she'll bring home, and how adventures like this can remind us what really matters: presence, people, and permission to be ourselves.To find out more about the experiment and see if you can joing the next one - shoot sophie a message on Instagram @street_sophie For the running adventures check out https://greatsilkrun.com/ Hosted on Acast.

Anto Yeldezian is a Tāmaki-based artist of Armenian heritage, who works amongst an expanded painting practice that often leans into methodologies of printmaking. Utilising methods of monoprinting, and stencils, along with a playful use of paint and material exploration. Within his current solo show Desert Island on at Coastal Signs, Yeldezian presents a series of 7 large scale works on raw loose canvas. Installed in a manner in which the works almost engulf the gallery walls, and bring the space into a continuous field of symbols, and marks. The works themselves harness this heavy use of motifs, and symbols as a kind of centering point to the show. The references include camels, palm trees, oil pump-jacks, Homer Simpson's thirsty bird'; ancient fossils, the triple Gs of Canterbury Clothing Company, union jacks and logos of American defence and oil companies. Through the making of the work Yeldezian takes these symbols and applies them to various painterly techniques that almost pull them away from their own inherent meanings/references and into this place of a pattern-like language with its own set of meanings. Maya caught up with Anto about the show as well as his overall practice.

This week Jenn wanted to share her Desert Island Mix that she shared a few years ago on the Super Awesome Mix podcast. Chances are, there may be some changes since then but no doubt these songs are still very meaningful to her. From 80s powerhouses to modern indie storytellers, Jenn maps the songs that shaped her life and the moments they still soundtrack.We start in montage mode with John Waite's Change and a spirited Vision Quest detour, then settle into anchor territory: the Eagles' warm-road harmonies and Led Zeppelin's tender Tangerine. Joy spikes with The Police's Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic, a steel-drum smile fit for any beach, while Taylor Swift's Invisible String wraps pandemic-era time into something curious, mystical, and finally wondrous. Jenn's love for storytelling shines through John Mayer's Walt Grace's Submarine Test, a cult-favorite narrative that sparks debate about reinvention, risk, and what it means to surface somewhere new.Modern textures pull the set forward. Glass Animals' Life Itself examines belonging with kinetic honesty, Iron & Wine's Call It Dreaming offers lyrical grace for anyone carrying old loves, and Young the Giant's Superposition turns physics into romance—finding beauty in overlap, uncertainty, and dual truths. We celebrate Annie Lennox's vocal fire on Eurythmics' Would I Lie to You and the candid power of sister-trio Haim on Forever. And to close, Jenn lands on Madonna's Borderline, a timeless 80s gem that still blooms on every listen.https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7DVnKQUtnZyidjcaKrAQub?si=4bfe773548754bb7You can find her mix on Apple Music here:https://music.apple.com/us/playlist/jenn-tully-desert-island-mix/pl.u-11zBJogFNWpD5mBChange by John WaiteOl' 55 by EaglesTangerine by Led ZeppelinLife Itself by Glass AnimalsEvery Little Thing She Does Is Magic by The Policeinvisible string by Taylor SwiftWould I Lie to You by Eurythmics, Annie Lennox, Dave StewartCall It Dreaming by Iron & WineWalt Grace's Submarine Test, January 1967 by John MayerForever by HAIMSuperposition by Young the GiantBorderline by Madonna

We Draft Our Favorite "Desert Island" Sci-fi TV Series! In this special episode of Culture Clash Live, Hosts Kyle & Kevin welcome guests, Lacee, Gary and Robert, as we each take turns drafting our Top 3 favorite Sci-Fi TV series of all time, in a Fantasy Football style "snake draft". Here are the drafting parameters & rules: The draft will be 3 Rounds in a Fantasy Football Snake Style Draft. Rules will be explained before the draft starts. These are our favorite shows, not necessarily the best sci-fi shows. The draft order will be randomly set just before we draft. Parameters & Rules: - The IMDB Sci-fi show listing must have “Sci-fi” mentioned in its genre section. - You cannot draft a franchise, only a show within the franchise. - The Sci-fi Show must have aired at least 6 episodes. - You must clarify your choice of the original or reboot series. - Most important! Once a sci-fi show has been picked, it's off the board and can't be picked by anyone else. For SPOLIERS on the draft results, see below: Let's do this thing!

Neale and Kev reminisce about driving tests; turns out Kev failed his a gazillion times! Also, firmware updates, what would the boys like to see improved in the near future on Fujifilm cameras, Kev sorts Neale's focus failures on the X100V, loaning out your cameras to family, and we ask whether the great Fujifilm zoom lenses can stand up to the quality offered by primes? We choose between particular cameras in the range, and we return to an ole' chestnut conversation; what NOT to do on Instagram, so a slight twist on the theme.

Susan's Desert Island Discs with Lauren Laverne doesn't go to plan...
Margaret Atwood is a Canadian writer. She has published more than sixty books spanning novels, poetry, short stories, non-fiction, children's literature, and graphic novels, and has been called “one of the sharpest and most imaginative novelists writing in English”. She is one of only four writers to have won the Booker Prize twice: for The Blind Assassin in 2000 and for her 2019 follow-up to The Handmaid's Tale, The Testaments.Margaret was born in Ottawa in November 1939, shortly after the outbreak of World War II, the second of three children to Carl Atwood, an entomologist. During her early life, she would spend the warmer months in the remote forests of northern Quebec and Ontario where her father tracked insect infestations, and the winters in the city (first Ottawa, later Toronto). She didn't attend school for a full year until the age of twelve.Her childhood scribblings – a “novel” about an ant called Annie, a volume of rhyming poems about cats, and a play about a giant – turned into a more serious ambition to become a writer when Margaret was sixteen. After studying English at the University of Toronto, where she began publishing poems in the college magazine, her first novel, The Edible Woman, came out in 1969, following five collections of poetry. Her most famous work, The Handmaid's Tale, was published in 1985 and depicted a dystopian vision of the United States as a patriarchal and totalitarian place called Gilead. Although it was written during the Reagan era, it has become eerily relevant again in the wake of the election of Donald Trump. Margaret lost her life partner, the writer Graeme Gibson, in 2019. She lives in Toronto.DISC ONE: Anchors Aweigh - US Navy Band DISC TWO: Hearts of Stone - The Charms DISC THREE: Offenbach: Les contes d'Hoffmann, Giulietta Act: Barcarolle.

Psychologist and author Dr. Wolfgang Linden joins us to explore why so much of our stress comes not from events themselves, but from our attempts to control them. Drawing on 40+ years of research and clinical experience, he breaks down the “illusion of control” and argues that we only truly have power over two things: how we respond and where we direct our energy. We dive into his emotion–thought–behavior framework, the dangers of suppressing emotions, and how small shifts in attention and behavior can interrupt toxic cycles. From relationships to health to life goals, Wolfgang shows how letting go can actually give us more peace, more agency, and a clearer path forward—sometimes even by knowing when to quit.

If you've ever wondered what a conversation about Ecclesiastes between Tigger and Eeyore sounds like, it's your lucky day. Watch the full conversation on YouTube In a recent episode, Sho Baraka became the first guest to choose the book of Ecclesiastes for his Desert Island, “5 Books of the Bible” challenge we sometimes end our show with. So it seems fitting that a few weeks later we welcome Beth Moore to talk about the relevance and timeliness of these passages that weep for the seeming futility of the human experience. Together, Russell and Beth begin by exploring the relevance of the book for Christians and non-Christians alike. Then, they go on a free-wheeling exploration of the book including topics like surgeries and abandoned vineyards, Christmas Wig Exchanges, Stephen King, and, amazingly, Creed Bratton (if you know, you know). If you've ever had the thought, "I hate life,” and assumed the Bible was ignorant to the human experience of suffering, listen to hear how God has not only acknowledged the turmoil of our existential strivings, but has actually given us words for it.
