Chapter 1: What is the unique premise of 'What Did You 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
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.
Chapter 2: How did Lloyd Langford end up in Australia?
And I'm David O'Doherty. Welcome to What Did You Do Yesterday? Hello and welcome to What Did You Do Yesterday? My name is Max Rushton. Alongside me, David O'Doherty. Welcome, David.
I could have booked today's guest. Oh, that's not fair. But you leapt at the opportunity because you had Lloyd Langford's number. And thank you, Max.
Thank you. Lloyd Langford. is a brilliant Welsh comedian who moved to Melbourne before COVID, who I'd seen on the telly doing all the sort of comedy shows in Melbourne. And then I saw him at Play Nook, the soft play centre. And once I saw him, I was like, oh, we sort of chatted a bit, but we didn't really chat.
Chapter 3: What interesting parenting moments did Lloyd share?
And then I saw him in a cafe. And then I think I saw him again at Play Nook and we had a big chat about... Showbiz, because everything is showbiz, of course. And then Ian and his daughter hung out a bit. I met him on a bench. He was just sitting on a bench. I sat on a bench and chatted to him for a bit. Wow. So yeah, like old friends.
Like Lloyd was developing a thing in the UK. Yeah. Moved here, as he told us, actually off air. He intended to just go to Australia for six months, left washing, hanging out, and came back two and a half years later to find that it's gone completely solid. But came to Australia, and Australia has just fallen in love with Lloyd. He has a real following here now.
Chapter 4: What games does Lloyd play with his daughter?
Are we saying Australia's favorite Welshman?
Listen, with all due respect to Lloyd, it's probably still Tom Jones, but you know, that's... Lloyd is on tour around Australia for the next while.
Check it out at comedy.com.au. Search for Lloyd on that. It's a full day, isn't it? It's a full day. This could be six different episodes right here. It gets a lot. And this is what Lloyd Langford did yesterday.
Lloyd Langford, welcome to What Did You Do Yesterday.
Thank you so much for having me.
It's a pleasure. I have an apology because I looked at the text message because it's a... I book all the guests. David's yet to book a guest. It's really frustrating.

Chapter 5: What was Lloyd's breakfast routine like yesterday?
And I noticed that the text above Do You Fancy Coming On This Podcast was when... Oh, no. You invited.
So Lloyd, sorry, let me just step in here. Max has this dreadful history of when he tries to book one of his three guests ever that he has booked for this. He'll be hassling Hugh Grant or someone who will never come on. The previous message is something like, hi, Hugh, really enjoyed you in Four Weddings and a Funeral. I can act. Can I please be in your next film?
Is that what was your previous one to Lloyd?
No, it was that Lloyd had invited me and Ian Rushton to his daughter's fourth birthday party, and I basically hadn't responded. I'd done a thumbs up, but then I forgot it even happened. I'm really sorry.
I was at her 30th recently, so that's...
That's how badly you guys have been keeping in touch.

Chapter 6: How did Lloyd's day unfold after breakfast?
That would mean that I had it when I was 12 years old.
Good for you. It's Wales. It's Wales in the 90s.
Okay then, Lloyd. What time did you wake up in the morning?
Well, I was woken up by my daughter at about 20 past seven. She was coming in. She'd been out of work too. It's the school holidays and I very much am not a morning person. I would normally sleep in a bit, but also we've just, the clocks have changed, right? So.
It's a disaster, isn't it, Lloyd?
Yes. I would like to sleep in a lot later, but my daughter, I mean, you know me, I'm quite a low energy man.

Chapter 7: What challenges did Lloyd face during his day?
daughter wakes up talking so from eyes open she's up and at him like she's just she asked me this is a new development in our lives but she has a um a spittoon like a um what like a wine tasting like an old timey gold prospector she's like daddy is this a Shiraz or a Beaujolais
Or like sort of Henry VIII, that kind of vibe.
It's like a seaside, like a sandcastle bucket at the side of the bed. Yeah. She was like, pass me the spit bucket. She had an illness not so long ago where she was vomiting, or as she refers to it, doing a food spill.
A polite way of putting it.
And now I think it's like a leftover from that. So she'll wake up and just spit into a bucket. Yeah.
Like a Babe Ruth playing baseball in the 1980s.
Like a blues harmonica player from the 1940s.
At what point do you think you, I mean, four now, by like 22, we need to work on losing the spittoon. You don't want it to become like a crutch.
It's not a permanent fixture.

Chapter 8: What reflections did Lloyd have at the end of his day?
I think it kind of comes and goes. What she wants to do as soon as she wakes up with me is to play a game, instantly play a game, a role-playing game, where... I take on a variety of characters from... It's early improv, isn't it?
It's actually quite a good improv show where the contestants are woken up. Yeah. It's like, whose line is it anyway? Greg Proops and Ryan Stiles and Mike McShane are woken up.
So we've got a game, Lloyd. Okay, this is... We've got a game and it's like a rotating cast of characters from stories and media and stuff that we've consumed. Yeah. She normally plays herself. She sometimes plays Mowgli from the Jungle Book. Okay. And I play everybody else.
Okay. Interruption. With respect, I don't have you down as a sort of Daniel Day-Lewis type. Capable of inhabiting entire personae that I have you down as a low energy Welsh man.
It's very tricky because one of the characters I occasionally am asked to perform is King Louis from the Jungle Book. the king of the swingers the jungle vip indeed and i believe there was criticism at the time for louis prima's characterization of king louis for being racist so i've got to try and navigate
the cultural sensitivities I'm going to get cancelled before 8am in my own house so yeah I'll play Baloo from the Jungle Book I'll play Shere Khan King Louie I'll play Mufasa Scar Simba Timon Humber and on occasion Elvis Presley she's a huge Elvis Presley fan he's sometimes in the stories as well
Is it like, you know, you interview an impressionist and so you're sort of talking about their career, but you really want to say, go on, do your Arsene Wenger or whatever. Like, is she just saying, now you're King Louis, now you're Elvis, or do you weave them into the story? How does it? I did not see the foul.
That's my Arsene Wenger impersonation. It's really good. I did not see that.
It's really tremendous. She's directing the scenes as well. So she's saying Baloo and Simba find Gwen in a cave and she's asleep. Okay. And I do most of the characterization for Elvis Presley. Yeah. He's obsessed with eating cheeseburgers as he was.
