To list all pods and containers use the below command

kubectl get pods -o=custom-columns=POD:.metadata.name,CONTAINERS:.spec.containers[*].name

To list all pods and containers in a given namespace use the below command

kubectl get pods -o=custom-columns=POD:.metadata.name,CONTAINERS:.spec.containers[*].name -n <<namespace>>

Output of the above command will show PODs and the containers against it in a tabular format.
