What Did You Do Yesterday? with Max Rushden & David O'Doherty · S4 EP23: David Baddiel · 6 Jun 2026 podcast

After a while, it becomes like Santa climbing out of a very old Santa climbing back out of a chimney.

And that's sort of how my hammock would throw me out.

Not like the cannon on HMS Victory.

I just sort of fall out of it in a slightly sad way.

Okay.

yes i am in the hammock then there's quite a long period where i'm sort of thinking why am i in the hammock like because it's quite hard to do anything in a hammock like even of course it is like i brought my laptop with me under the pretext that i was going to do some work but it's really hard to rest it even on my expanded stomach quite hard to rest it on a so then so the hammock that i have which by the way is covered in leaves because it just gets covered in leaves i can't be bothered to clean it

So you have to imagine me in a sort of quite, it's quite beautiful in a way, a sort of bed of leaves in the habit.

It's a biblical idea.

Behind me, there are two tiny, tiny, very shit matching pillows.

The hammock is a rainbow color.

And these matching pillows are rainbow color.

And I basically have to adjust them to support my neck so that I can look at the laptop.

Yeah.

Okay.

The point I'm making is it's such a, in a Jewish word, a megillah, meaning business, like thing that takes too long.

It's such a megillah to get in the hammock and get set up.

You just think, well, I'm going to get out the hammock now.

That's going to take another half an hour.

The whole thing has been a waste of time for five minutes of relaxation.

Yeah, and they all said they were out while I was trying to get in the hammock.
