That Norway v England Episode: Kane, Rogers & Burn talk Haaland & their HUGE Norway game! | Ep. 414

On this episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, Pete, Sids and Tom are given unprecedented access inside England's World Cup training camp as they go behind the scenes with Thomas Tuchel's squad ahead of a huge semi-final against Norway. After England's unforgettable victory over Mexico, the lads witness first-hand the togetherness that's driving this squad, with Peter receiving an emotional England Legacy Cap presented by Harry Kane in front of the entire team. Pete also chats with Harry Kane to relive the incredible night at the Azteca, discussing the celebrations, the emotional Wonderwall moments with England fans, the challenges of tournament life, and why this squad feels different to any England team before it. The captain opens up about the adrenaline of knockout football, family life during the World Cup and what it really feels like to carry the hopes of a nation. The boys are then joined by Dan Burn and Morgan Rogers, who reveal what life is really like inside England's camp. They discuss the unforgettable atmosphere inside the Azteca, what it's like waiting for your chance in tournament football, the incredible togetherness within the squad, and why every player—whether they start or come off the bench—has such an important role to play. The pair also lift the lid on life away from the pitch, from games of Traitors, golf and basketball to the debates and laughs that have helped make England's training base feel like a home away from home. There's plenty of classic TPCP nonsense too, as the production team set Pete, Sids and Tom a brutal all-you-can-eat sandwich buffet challenge, before another Paddy Power Predictions League update, plenty of laughs from inside England HQ, and an emotional farewell (for now) to Tom as he heads back to the UK after an unforgettable month on the road with the boys.

That England v Panama Episode: Juan Pablo Angel on Aston Villa & England TOP their group! | Ep. 410

On this week’s episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, Pete, Tom Fordyce and Sids react to England making it through the World Cup group stages and look ahead to the knockout rounds. The lads discuss where England sit among the tournament favourites, whether stronger opposition might actually suit them better, and why Marcus Rashford, Jude Bellingham and Harry Kane could still have a major role to play as the tournament opens up. There is also plenty of classic nonsense along the way. Sids talks through his unexpectedly therapeutic trip to an LA laundrette, Tom reveals how he accidentally got into a swimming pool on a senior citizen discount, and the lads lose themselves in an obscure 90s footballer rabbit hole before attempting their best David Beckham eyebrow impressions. The boys are then joined by Aston Villa legend and former Colombia international Juan Pablo Ángel. Pablo reflects on arriving at Villa from River Plate, landing in England without speaking the language, being unveiled at Villa Park before the move was even fully signed, and adapting to the speed, pressure and culture of the Premier League. He also opens up on growing up in Medellín, learning football on the streets, the intensity of Boca Juniors vs River Plate, representing Colombia, scoring against Brazil and Argentina, and why MLS is far more competitive than many people realise. The lads also return for another round of Paddy Power Chaos Cards, reviewing the latest leaderboard after LeBron James' unlikely contribution, before making their predictions for the next round of World Cup action. With bonus points on the line and bragging rights at stake, there's no shortage of confidence, controversy and classic TPCP chaos.
