What is the main focus of the podcast episode?
Podcasts, there are millions of them.
Some might say too many.
I have one already.
I don't have any, because there are enough.
Politics, business, sport, you name it, there's a podcast about it, and they all ask the big questions and cover the hot topics of the day.
But nobody is covering the most important topic of all. Why is that? Are they scared? Too afraid of being censored by the man? No.
Possibly, but not us. We're here to ask the only question that matters.
We try and say it at the same time, Max.
What did you do yesterday?
What did you do yesterday?
What did you do yesterday? That's it. All we're interested in is what the guests got up to yesterday. Nothing more.
Day before yesterday, Max? Nope. The greatest and most interesting day of your life?
Unless it was yesterday, we don't want to know about it. I'm Max Rushton. And I'm David O'Doherty. Welcome to What Did You Do Yesterday?
Yes.
Hello, everybody. That yes was David O'Doherty.
Yes.
Welcoming you to What Did You Do Yesterday? We're on episode four, David, and we're still here.
Episode four. I mean, it's not, just put it episodically like that. That implies you need to listen to the first three to figure out what's good. It's not like Mad Men or something, you know?
It's not like Grease 2, where, I mean, if you watch Grease 2 without Grease, you're just honestly totally confused.
What would be the worst? Maybe Jaws 2. I don't think you'd go back and watch Jaws if you'd just seen Jaws 2 as your first one.
We're digressing, David, because we've got feedback. Part of the running theme of these podcasts is me being increasingly desperate about everything. And I made a very desperate plea for some emails as we've had none. We've got some emails. Do you want to hear some of them?
I mean, do I want to? I'm just happy to do this, Max. I'm just happy to say these words into a void. But if we must know what sound is coming back from that void, go on, read me an email.
Very positive.
What interesting experiences did Josh Widdicombe have yesterday?
Very positive. Jane sent our first ever email. Hello, you incredible podcast pair. It's a bit, I don't really like reading out compliments. I much prefer reading out insults. But anyway, it's nice from Jane. Hello, you incredible podcast pairing. Max plugging the podcast on Parenting Hell is how I knew about it in the first few minutes. I knew you would be my favorite podcast. This is pure genius. Wow. Thank you. The every day is way more interesting than someone's highlighted edits of life. Yesterday and today, Jane. I feel every correspondent should write, should finish with yesterday and today. That's sort of like yours faithfully for this podcast. And that is Jane who sent us off. Imagine in about five years time, David, when we're playing Sydney Opera House, the big room.
Yeah, the big room.
And we will remember Jane was the first of millions to email us.
That is fantastic. phenomenally positive. I mean, because I'm just getting feedback in the real world from my friends, it tends to be more layered. So Saoirse, my friend said she enjoyed it, but she listened to it on 1.5.
well actually this is rushton she said she's enjoying the series and she's never listened as we've established to anything i've done before and she said she said and she wasn't trying to make a point she said i really like how david drives it and do you know what that really hurt that really i was like that really i didn't say anything i was like oh that's a low but i feel i'm the i feel like i'm the drive i don't know i feel like i'm the driver
Yeah. Another friend said to me that she appreciates how when something boring is happening on the podcast, I pretend to sound excited, but I am actually excited by, you know, when someone goes and then I had to do some admin and we both go, tell us what the admin is.
Admin is. Oh, I love admin. Yeah. Jose E Gutierrez of Brooklyn says, hello, I really liked your first episode with Ellis James. I will keep listening for sure. One piece of unsolicited advice. The theme music should be jazzed up a bit. I'm not sure who your target audience is, but if you want to attract listeners younger than me, I'm a 70-year-old El Salvadorian American from Brooklyn who probably has no business listening to British podcasts featuring B-level celebrities, but there you go.
