What is the main question asked in this podcast?
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 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.
How does Tom Cashman describe his day yesterday?
And I'm David O'Doherty. Welcome to What Did You Do Yesterday? Hello and welcome to What Did You Do Yesterday? My name's Max Rushton. Alongside me, David O'Doherty. What a guest we have today, David.
This is a man, he thinks about things a lot. If you ever see Tom Cashman's wonderful comedy, a lot of it involves graphs and... certainly having thought about yesterday, would figure in his brain a lot. So I'm very happy that we got him on here.
And I'm saying no spoilers, and I'm not even going towards the spoilers, just in case David then gives the spoilers. But I will say this. He's the Alex Horne on Australian Taskmasters. He is. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yes. And actually, many years ago, I texted Alex and said, can I be you in Australia, please?
I forgot about this.
Yeah, I know. Because I was like... And this was before I got the football job and I was trying to find a way of being to Australia. And I'd only spoke to Alex for five minutes about service stations on TalkSport once. So it was quite punchy. And he went, actually, it's not a terrible idea. I'll see what I can do. And then obviously they decided to choose an Australian comedian to do it. Can you believe that? Terrible casting. He is made for that role. Yeah, yeah, he's perfect.
What unique experiences did Tom have with Facebook Marketplace?
He is perfect. That is true. Tom is touring Australia at the moment. He's doing Melbourne Comedy Festival. He is also doing the Edinburgh Fringe and doing a bunch of gigs in London. His show is called NPC, Nearly Proficient Comedian. There's some exciting things just about to happen.
You're doing the thing now that I'm not allowed to do. No, that's not a spoiler. That's not, you're a spoil sport. That is not a spoiler. That's just like anyone going, can I be bothered to listen? It's now going, oh, I'm going to listen. That's a tease. I'm teaching. This is broadcasting 101. This is what Tom Cashman did yesterday.
Tom Cashman, welcome to What Did You Do Yesterday?
What is going on? It is fantastic to be here and I'm sorry to say I've actually defeated the format. Why?
Did you sleep the whole of yesterday?
This would be good. No, two days ago I went on Facebook Marketplace and I hired an actor. So the first thing that happened to me this morning is a man came to my door, sat down on my couch and recited my seven best anecdotes from the last decade. And I guess I should take you through what he said. Yeah.
I see what you're trying to do here. See, the beauty of this as a podcast is people can't just do their greatest hits. Yeah, until now. Oh, my goodness. Have you ever been mixed up with Ireland's, with respect to you, Ireland's favorite Tom Cashman, who is the legendary cork hurler, many regard as the greatest hurler of all time from the 60s and 70s?
I feel like this actually might be the best opportunity I've had to, I suppose, send a message to him. And I suppose I've been aware of him for my whole life.
Yeah.
Because anytime you've Googled my name, which I've been doing since I was 12 or whenever Google came out, every day. I'm not... I have been aware of this hurler. I'm not really that across what hurling is, but he seems quite decorated and I'm proud of him. But what I don't appreciate is as I have become a comedian and my online presence kind of sometimes in like the Google summaries and the Wikipedia summaries merge, it has been the case for a few years that certain drop-down summaries of me list his height and he is like a foot shorter than me.
