What Did You Do Yesterday? with Max Rushden & David O'Doherty · S4 EP11: Tom Cashman · 15 Mar 2026 podcast

Exactly.

Flick that off with guava, I'm happy.

I'll take that.

And then I reckon I'm playing five-minute chess games against random people on my phone for pretty much the entire breakfast.

I have to push back against that a tad.

I am addicted to chess in a way that I think chess gets too good a rap.

I think people associate it with kind of like intelligence, I guess.

But when you play it like I do, quick games for quick hits where you're not really thinking about the moves, it's pretty indistinguishable from Candy Crush, really, in terms of what it's doing to your brain.

A 10-minute game, absolutely not.

I think one is dead and one is a computer.

Okay, yeah.

I think I won two and lost one.

I think there is a spectrum of when I'm playing of like how much thought I'm giving to the...

And usually if I focus, I win because my rating is quite low for my actual ability because I play games when I'm barely paying attention.

And then I meet someone halfway through a game and then lose by forfeiting.

So if I focus, I can usually win.

But that's because you're coming from a low base.
