What Did You Do Yesterday? with Max Rushden & David O'Doherty · S4 EP17: Waleed Aly · 25 Apr 2026 podcast

Well, all I will say is my mum sent me a proud text.

That's got to be at least an eight.

I think it might've just said that.

Yes.

But in perspective, my mum does text me often after my appearances.

She recorded, I think close to every episode of the project.

Yeah.

I think they might have set up a data center near her house and she would not have liked the project.

That's not her.

She's much happier with me on the ABC, I think.

But the other thing that she will do is she will routinely correct my grammar.

No, because I've ironed out most of them.

But here are some hits, some of the greatest hits.

The word none is singular.

No, I mean, that would also be singular, I guess.

But no, as in, none of us is hungry.

Hey, David, did you notice Max's desperate attempt to inform us that he'd read the news on BBC London?

My mother's other favorite grammatical mistake is if you say the reason for X, you don't say the reason for X is because Y. You say the reason for X is that Y. Oh, for goodness sake.

You know why also, Max?

She's an extraordinarily good cook, and I know you're not very good with good food.
