What Did You Do Yesterday? with Max Rushden & David O'Doherty · S4 EP5: Richard Herring · 1 Feb 2026 podcast

I mean, I'm 58.

I think he's in his 40s and he's quite tall and he should be absolutely trashy.

He serves at 147 miles an hour.

I beat him every time.

I thought it would come sooner.

I think it used to be sort of six love, six one, and now it's six, two, six, one.

It's got to vary.

I'm usually quite competitive.

So even, you know, often he'll get 40 love up and then I will think, oh, I better try a bit harder and beat him.

Yesterday, don't tell him this.

There was a point where I was heading for six love in the first set and it was 30-40 and he was serving and his second serve went out, but I just pretended it went in and carried on playing.

And he did win that game, so...

But also I kind of want to, I'm really doing it for the exercise.

What I love about tennis is it doesn't feel at all like you're exercising, but then I put my little watch thing on and it says, oh, you've burned 500 calories in the last hour.

And you go, this is pretty good because I don't feel like I've really done all that much.

It doesn't feel like going for a run, which I also like to do.

Outdoor.

So like this, we played a couple of times this week and the first time at one end of the court, you couldn't actually move it.

You were actually waiting for the serve.

You were sliding on a little bit.
