What is the main focus of the podcast episode with Gary Lineker?
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? Hello and welcome to episode Who Knows of What Did You Do Yesterday? David O'Doherty is here. Hello, David. The big one.
I'm calling it the big one. I mean, we've had big ones in the past, but this is a really unexpected big one. I think when people see this in their feed, they'll be like, is this one of those weird things where they've blended two different podcasts that I listen to together? How did these people get this guy?
Yeah, and look, I'm on a bit of a run with booking guests. Two, two. A lot of people, two.
What does Gary Lineker do in a typical day?
It's still a run. A run's a run. And we've wanted a footballer. We've been talking about getting a footballer for a long time. So I texted Gary Lineker and I said, do you want to come on? And he went, yeah, all right. And I was like... fuck off like he doesn't need to come on this he's got a podcast empire why is he coming on there and i'm so then for the last week i haven't really believed it's gary lineker um but you know for the tape we have just recorded it so we know it's there we know it's him um there was a funny moment there was a funny moment where his son the you know the zoom opened it was his son and i was like oh we've just been scammed by a 25 year old It's literally Timu Gary Lineker has been booked.
But yeah, like it's an interesting day, isn't it? I think, you know, the whole point when we started this is I wonder what Gary Lineker has for breakfast. And you will be, I think people will be pleasantly delighted when you find that out.
I just, I can't believe you've pulled it off. I mean, because your previous one was you did try to book the guy from Adolescence, whose number you also had. Stephen Graham, yeah. Stephen Graham just responded. You were like, would you like to do our podcast? And he was like, you're right, kiddo. And just, that was it.
I work on Steven. You know, he came on Soccer M all the time. I realised I should have asked him about a month ago. Like, I shouldn't have waited until Adolescence had just been released because I was just like, oh, yeah. No, like, because we'd occasionally text over time. So, like, he's on my to-do list. But, yeah, we have Gary Lineker. Yeah, you've done us.
And Gary Lineker's yesterday. And this is going to open so many more doors. Meryl Streep is going to see that Lineker's done it. Exactly.
She'll be getting in touch with you, Max. So, ladies and gentlemen, here is what Gary Lineker... Oh, do you need to, David, for your audience, explain who Gary Lineker is? You know how you do that sometimes for people who don't know who Gary Lineker is?
Gary, he's been on Live at the Apollo. He's been on all of those shows. That's your intro to every guest I've ever got. Yeah. Gary Lineker was one of England's greatest footballers of his generation. His generation being the 80s. He was the top scorer at the 1986 World Cup. He was nearly the top scorer at the 1990 World Cup, where England nearly won it, but just didn't quite. And then he's become the voice of sport on the BBC. He hosts Match of the Day, the show that Max watched. wasn't in the running to host when Gary Lineker recently announced that he would be stepping back.
He can host this shit out of anything.
