Chapter 1: What is the main question the podcast asks?
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 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. 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. David, and once again, I've booked today's guest.
Today on the podcast, we have an amazing comedian, Amy Annette. I have lived with her at the Edinburgh Fringe several times, so thanks for sorting that as well. That's okay. A friendship that goes back over a very long time. This is, for the tape, we have recorded the episode already. We did yesterday.
This is a rare episode because it features me in the same way that Alfred Hitchcock used to play small roles in his own film.
Tarantino popping up in his movie just before everyone just murders each other and everyone goes, what a genius. And I'm like, come on. Yes, similar to that. I'm in this one. I mean, I do bring it up in the episode that there's some controversial elements of, you know, if you're not in the room, can you talk about what you, just because you were near.

Chapter 2: Who is the guest in this episode?
And you would want to be Deck out of those two, I think.
I think so. Or the Phineas to his Ferb. Or the Phineas to his Billie Eilish. You know, it's just so nice.
I feel the helicopter may have something to say about this. You know, in terms of sidekicks. The Eddie to his Giles, maybe.
Yes. Oh, R.I.P.
Are they gone?
One of them.
One of Charles and Eddie is no longer with us.
I don't know which one, but I think that's the only perfect song, sorry to say, to the jazz men. Would I lie to you?
That one.

Chapter 3: What did Amy Annette do yesterday?
Finally. Time. Physics. I've got no concept of it. So the night before I go somewhere, I have to spend quite a lot of time being like, if I get there on time, I need to leave at this time. So I've spent a lot of time doing that. So I think I know in the back of my head, the latest I can leave is eight, I don't know, 45.
Hmm.
So I've got that in the back of my head. But unfortunately, what that means in my head is an 8.45 becomes the time to work towards with seconds to spare.
Right. So you want to sort of get up in a Wallace and Gromit style into the trousers out of the house.
I would love that.
Okay. And also you've got to factor in not understanding the concept of time from 8.15 to 8.45.
So stressful. And that's a big part of why I'm late, it turns out. And I am late.
Yeah, I would say that with London more so than Dublin. You're in London, I presume, Amy?
I don't like to reveal my location.

Chapter 4: How does Amy describe her morning routine?
I go past Monmouth Coffee, and I think, I'm going to get a coffee. Walk in, queues, way too long for a lady who famously has left late. So then, and this is willpower, I turn around and I walk into that hotel. And I've arrived before everyone else somehow. And so I sort of wander the hotel for a bit. Then I find some people. And a very nice lady called Mel starts to do my makeup.
So this, just a little bit of context, because I haven't done many of these in my time.
No, I think this was a fancy one.
This was a really high budget. So it's the launch of this show and they have invited the people of the press in. Influences. In this hotel, there's also a screening room and some incredibly good looking people are also coming to watch it then.
And this is the show where you are covered in lube for all of it. That's what we've established in this series.
He honestly is. I know sometimes David likes to, let's say it.
Lie.
Exaggerate. Yeah. What? But he is truly at all points covered in lube.
Yeah, every evening it was when you got in your shower, you would say to yourself, I'm covered in new smells and new products. And I'm really going to have to work this carbolic soap to get all of this off.

Chapter 5: What humorous moments arise from audience interactions?
Watching David O'Doherty field questions, work a panel, sort of maintain a light but easy breezy vibe in a dark room on a very sunny day was like watching Ronaldinho play with his older brother for Brazil.
I have chaotic jet lagged energy, which is actually ideal for something like this. So, for example, when all of our names are read out, everyone claps. But I boo when Mel's name is read out. Just it's funny the idea that I have a vendetta against Mel Gedroych.
You actually boo the woman from UK TV saying... Of course, we loved working with Mel on her hit TV show. And you went, and it was funny. And then I was thinking that's charming because I don't think they renewed that show. So I thought, I wonder if that's you booing the man.
Okay, so this screening happens. And then have we been here? It feels like we might have been here for either 20 minutes or seven hours.
You're talking about this podcast?
You don't understand the concept of time. So I don't know if you know what time it is at this stage of proceedings.
The only thing I'll add to this timing wise is at some point I've gone and put on a white version of the jacket that Nish and David are wearing because I suddenly realized the coat I wore in looks a bit like it. So I'm hoping that we look like a sort of a flag.

Chapter 6: How does Amy navigate the chaos of her day?
Yeah, if we were to lie on top of each other, we would be the Dutch flag.
Yes, we wanted to look like the Dutch flag. Orange, blue, white. So we watched the TV show and it is weirdly good. Thank the G Lord, I must say that. Well, thank the editors.
Yeah.
I'll say that.
We had no idea whether it was going to be what it was going to be like. We were just trying to do it properly. Yeah. And they seem to have done a pretty good job.

Chapter 7: What unexpected insights does Amy share about her experiences?
And then we're sent off to do actual interviews. Right. Amy, where are you sent?
David and I split up too much Sharizma into one group. Too much David trying to explain to me who Ronaldinho is in one group. We split into two groups. I'm with Nish and Ed and David's with Mel and Lou. And we are across two floors. Anyway, we split between three people from three different magazines, maybe supplements, I think they were called. And they are representing different.
One woman is PA, which I found exciting. press association the news wires so it can be like breaking news yeah that's what I kept saying I was thrilled to meet someone from the PA are you kidding me straight before moves again you know then there's another one where we talked to two different journalists and one of them has a dictaphone in an iPod sock and I get very overwhelmed by that
So I'm with Mel. So Mel is kind of all they really want from my experience of this scenario is Mel to say something rude about Bake Off. So then there is your headline. You know what I mean? Like, good riddance, says Mel, or whatever.
Chapter 8: How does Amy reflect on her performance and the audience's response?
So the same question is effectively put to her many different ways about, do you still watch it? How do you think it's going? And all of that. And she is so deft about in giving them nothing. It's a beautiful, in a really polite way, just being like, what a wonderful time it was. And I'll be honest, I never really watched it when I was in it. So I haven't been keeping up with it recently.
But whatever I see, it always puts a smile on my face. You know what I mean? And it's just like, wow, this is a master at work here.
I guess our version of that was them trying to get Ed to talk a bit about traitors.
Oh, yeah.
But nothing as salacious as, you know, slams Bake Off.
I could just keep saying that I'm in the Epstein files and they would be like, I'm back to Mel.
I feel conflicted, David, because it's not your yesterday. I'm sorry.
No, but it's happening at the same time and we're in the same space.
I understand that, but I'm thinking of the purist listening going, well, Amy wasn't in the room with David. There were some people that would accept that kind of anecdote, but there'll be others furious going, David and Mel were not part of Amy's. This is Amy's day. And David has lots of days on this podcast.
