What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
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. And I'm David O'Doherty. Welcome to What Did You Do Yesterday? What Did You Do Yesterday? Hello, and welcome to today's episode of What Did You Do Yesterday? My name's Max Rushton. Alongside me, David O'Doherty. Welcome, David.
Hello, my name is David O'Doherty. And a year and a half into this enterprise, I mean, we had Lineker on, but Richard Herring is one of the pioneers, I feel, particularly in Britain, of this thing called podcasting. I mean, I guess you are too, Max.
Well, I didn't want to say. I mean...
in the sports realm. And also he's been writing his blog about what he does the day before. We'll call it to separate it from yesterday in case there's any copyright clashes there.
How did Richard Herring start his day yesterday?
He's been doing that for 15 years as well. So I feel there's pressure on this one.
But most of it, man, I don't want to give any spoilers away, but this is, if you're interested in the roadworks of Hitchin, this is the episode for you. It's all I'm saying.
Gas is coming, people.
Well, you know, everyone knows Richard from Roja Lustapa, which is a great podcast. Me and my wife listened to almost all of it while driving through Namibia.
Wow.
Yeah, back in the day. That's when we got up to date with Roja Lustapa. And Jamie is a big fan.
That's Richard Herring's Leicester Square Theatre podcast. You will know Richard... Well, you may know him if you're of an age. In the 90s, he had a double act with Stuart Lee, and they made several very odd and wonderful series for BBC. Yeah, so good. Right in my wheelhouse. Fist of Fun, This Morning with Richard, Not Judy.
Really good stuff.
Really inspired my generation then. So that's why, yeah, it was so good of him to do it and relate to us the traffic problems as a result of the gasworks in Hitchens. Hitchens? Hitchens.
Hitchens. It's on the Greater West Anglia line from Cambridge to London. That's where you'll know. And you'll know my friend Matt Skelding who went to Hitchens Boys School. That's my Hitchin knowledge. Gosh, I wonder if he's the Max that... No, that's Matt. Matt.
What challenges did Richard face during his morning routine?
He's now moved to Berkhamstead, if you're really interested. Can you tell us anything about your trip to Namibia on which you listened to Richard Arring's Leicester Square Theatre podcast?
Yes, we had a tent on the top of the van. So you could sleep in the tent on top of the van. But that meant you were in a campsite. I don't like camping. And also lions in Namibia. And they always would say, there are no lions at this campsite. And I'd be like, but lions could get lost. And lions also, lost lions, probably hungry lions. So I really didn't like getting, I like the bathroom to be in the same building as the bedroom. Not in the same room, but like close. And me and Jamie would quite often just wee off the ladder.
That's fair enough. Yeah. That's just another beautiful glimpse into their relationship. We are sponsored by Visit Namibia. Wee off the ladder is what they say. Go to RichardHerring.com to find out. There's a bunch of new live shows coming up. I know David Mitchell is doing one. Always the best guests. Let's just crack on with it, Max. This is what Richard Herring did yesterday.
Richard Herring, welcome to What Did You Do Yesterday? Hello, love to be here. My wife loves you. Oh, good. I also am a big fan, Richard, but my wife, this is the first time she's been excited about it.
