What did Suzi Ruffell do yesterday?
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.
How does Suzi start her day?
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?
What breakfast does Suzi enjoy?
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? Hello and welcome to episode five of What Did You Do Yesterday? I'm Max Rushton. This is David O'Doherty. Hello, David.
How does Suzi manage her work-life balance?
Five! You could fly to New York now just listening. In fact, I've heard they're playing it on the flights, Max, just back to back, the episodes.
They're not on the radio. They're just playing it out to everybody.
the captain puts his phone on and holds it.
It's in no way annoying. Do you want some feedback?
Oh, no. Because we're still figuring this out, people have been contacting me with messages.
What insights does Suzi share about her new book?
There was the woman who was listening to the podcast while I cycled by her, generally positive. But you've been delving into the
No, no, no. I've got positive at the moment. I've got positive so far. I mean, there was, you know, Pink Pebbles 234 did say three stars. David has always is hilarious, but Max is boring, which is a risk to your brand, isn't it? But, you know, that's OK. That's good for you. You're getting three stars, I think.
How does Suzi cope with anxiety?
We're a team, Max. We're a team.
Yeah, we win as a team, we lose as a team, but it's only your brand that will suffer. Why didn't they book David for Melbourne this year? Oh, well, he started this pod. If he's hanging around with Max, then I don't think we should book him anymore. Anyway, this is from Nick in Anchorage, Alaska. He says, I did want to point out that your intro talks a big game about not fearing the man, and yet you refuse to release the Nish Kumar episode. Look, we really do want to release it, and we will at some point, but it's just... With the world the way it is, it's just too dangerous, isn't it?
What are Suzi's thoughts on parenting?
It's... Super injunctions. Look up what a super injunction is. We can say no more.
Yeah. This is from Karush, who says, Hello, Max and David. Thank you for all the words. He says, Please don't change your amazing voices. He says, As an English teacher and undergrad from Iran, I frequently reference and use Max's voice as an example for my students and myself on finding the sweet spot between sounding extremely engaging but not clownish or too much. Ah!
How does Suzi unwind at the end of the day?
How? Because the people of Iran all sound like me when I talk in English.
It's great. Is it crisis time for everything? People keep saying to each other in Iran.
They're walking about Tehran just going, how do we feel about Unai Emery's changes in the Aston Villa's midfield? What music did you listen to yesterday is also a question I hope you add to your repertoire as I enjoy your music chats. And one more from Joe, who says, Hi, guys, since listening to this podcast, I've found my internal monologue now just describes to me whatever I'm doing at that moment as if I was a guest on the show. It seems to happen for several hours every day. I don't think I've ever listened to a podcast that had such a noticeable impact on my day-to-day life, even if it is incredibly mundane. So thanks for that, I suppose, says Joe. LAUGHTER What a horrible thing we've bestowed upon people who are now commentating on what they're doing.
It's such a good little diffuser at the end of a compliment, isn't it? I take all of that. So initially when the first message there, jogging in Anchorage, which is also the title of my forthcoming novel,
