What is the primary question the podcast aims to explore?
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 Russian. 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. Okay. 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. In the terms of the universe, I was close to Amy Annette yesterday. Yes, sure. But I don't say what I was doing. That's for the midweek episodes. I know.
We've tested the bounds of this. There was a point where you sort of sat back with your arms folded in that little chair. I knew you weren't happy with what was going on. Well, I'd be interested to hear from the purists how they feel. Amy's Yesterday was the press launch of The Way Out, this escape room TV show that I, listeners may remember, I made in one of my yesterdays. And it's, I guess, how you build the hype for the show. Amy will be doing the Edinburgh Fringe this year with her new show, which is called Say What You Like About Me. She's absolutely brilliant. And this is what Amy Annette did yesterday.
Amy Annette, welcome to What Did You Do Yesterday?
Hello. How are you both?
I am good, but I'm also worried because I think this might be the first time ever where a yesterday potentially breaks what we call in time travel, the prime directive, which is not to mess with the events of the past. And I may figure in Amy Annette's yesterday. So we'll see how big a role I play and whether I made an impact, whether I ruined the day.
I could erase you from history if you like.
Like the Polaroids from Back to the Future. David will be staring at a Polaroid of him and you. And then he's disappearing. It's because you haven't brought him up. That could be exciting. But I could also turn up in this episode. We don't know. It seems less likely since I have never met you until 30 seconds ago, Amy. Yeah. But it could happen. That's all I'm saying. It could happen.
I'm so excited to meet you, Max. It's like to see the other half of David is so nice.
What did Amy Annette do yesterday?
It's like meeting the deck, I guess, to his aunt. Yeah.
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?
