From busking on the streets of Dublin to selling out the Aviva Stadium, Dermot opens up about the grind behind his rise, the self-doubt before album releases, and why live performances still mean everything to him. The lads dive into Dermot’s deep love for football, growing up as a Manchester United fan inspired by Roy Keane, and his unforgettable experiences playing Soccer Aid alongside legends like Wayne Rooney, Rivaldo, and Carlos Tevez. There’s also a brilliant crossover between music and football as they compare elite mentality, confidence, and what separates the very best from the rest. We also get a hilarious (and slightly chaotic) guitar lesson for Sids as he prepares for a potential live performance at Finsbury Park, plus a stunning live acoustic performance from Dermot that completely stops the room. After Dermot heads off, Pete and Sids regroup to debrief Pete’s participation in another Liverpool Legends match, the Paddy Power predictions, and life without Chris—who’s conveniently on holiday… Chumbawamba 00:00 - Podcast intro & Sid’s “popstar” identity crisis 03:10 - Wild guest booking stories & big names teased 05:10 - Phone network XI & absurd football chat 07:45 - Dermot Kennedy joins the podcast 09:00 - Touring with global superstars & live show pressure 10:45 - New album nerves & self-doubt before release 12:00 - Busking in Dublin & early arrogance 14:00 - Music industry vs old-school artistry debate 16:00 - Irish music culture & live performance roots 17:30 - Football fandom & Ro…","meta_description":"On this week’s episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, Pete, Sids, and Chris are joined by global chart-topper Dermot Kennedy for a wide-ranging chat that b…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":4365,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/that-peter-crouch-podcast-5296376/episodes/ep-396-dermot-kennedy-you-have-to-be-deluded-from-busking-to-sold-out-stadiums-overnight/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/that-peter-crouch-podcast-5296376/ep-396-dermot-kennedy-you-have-to-be-deluded-from-busking-to-sold-out-stadiums-overnight.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
