What led to the creation of the podcast 'What Did You Do Yesterday?'

Max Rushden 0:06
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.
David O'Doherty 0:45
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.
Max Rushden 0:53
I'm Max Rushton.

How did Michelle Wolf prepare for her day?

Max Rushden 0:53
And I'm David O'Doherty. Welcome to What Did You Do Yesterday? Hello and welcome to today's episode of What Did You Do Yesterday? I'm Max Rushton, alongside me, David O'Doherty. And let's not beat around the bush, David. I've booked an absolutely brilliant guest today.
Michelle Wolfe 1:13
Oh my goodness. Did you first meet Michelle Wolfe, who will be known to our listeners, I'm sure, from The Dailing Show in America? That's when we first met.
Max Rushden 1:24
I was one of the writers on that.
Michelle Wolfe 1:25
Yeah. Her incredible appearance at the White House Press Correspondents Dinner in, I think, 2018, where she did an amazing speech in front of Trump and everyone else. So you would have first met her in about 2010, I'd say, at the Bonnaroo Festival in Seattle.
Max Rushden 1:43
And I helped her a little bit with that speech. Oh, did you?

What humorous parenting challenges does Michelle share?

Max Rushden 1:47
Yeah, just a little bit.
Michelle Wolfe 1:48
Yeah. Oh, wow. Okay. I don't know why I organized the whole thing then. I should have just... I should have just left it up to you.
Max Rushden 1:56
Oh, David, well done. You booked a really good guest. For the tape, we've just finished recording and it is a really, it's a go episode, I would say. It's right up there.
Michelle Wolfe 2:05
It's a good one because sometimes people are like, oh, I'm a bit worried about this. I didn't really do anything yesterday. And you could argue it's a didn't do anything yesterday episode. But for me, that's the essence of this podcast.

How does Michelle balance work and motherhood?

Michelle Wolfe 2:19
100%. If someone doesn't leave the house, you know it's a good day. Yeah. If someone does life-saving and resuscitates a family, we're not that interested. We'd skip over that.
Max Rushden 2:32
Well, I mean, it depends which get. If I finally get Hugh Grant and he has resuscitated a family, I think we'd take it. I think we would ask some questions. We wouldn't just go, and then, what did you have for dinner? But without giving spoilers away, Michelle Wolfe does not resuscitate any people in this episode.
Michelle Wolfe 2:53
Michelle is on tour in Britain. Her new show is amazing. It's called Best Job in the World. Check her out on Instagram. She puts up like really regular, just little vids and they are always joyous.

What unexpected events happened during Michelle's day?

Michelle Wolfe 3:08
Tour dates are in June and July. General on sale has happened now and check it out at punchup.live forward slash Michelle Wolfe. I love this episode. And this is what Michelle Wolfe did yesterday.
Michelle Wolfe 3:33
Max, begin.
Max Rushden 3:34
I begin the podcast. I shall do it immediately. It's a very formal beginning. It's technically difficult. That's why David leaves it to me. Michelle Wolfe, welcome to What Did You Do Yesterday?
Oh, is that the welcome?
Max Rushden 3:46
That's the welcome.
Yeah, that's the start. I thought there was going to be more.

How did Michelle handle her grocery delivery issues?

I thought there was going to be like, welcome, Michelle.
Max Rushden 3:53
Oh, we'd read out your CV like Desert Island Discs when they say, she says of herself, she is the greatest chef that has ever been produced that side of the Atlantic. Please welcome, Michelle.
I was waiting for all my accolades to be read out. I'm sorry.
Max Rushden 4:07
No, that's okay. We read them out through the podcast. David reads them out.
As long as they're read out at some point. That's the important part.
Michelle Wolfe 4:15
Thank you for taking a break from your repeated watchings of the Melania movie, which has just come out.
I can't get enough of it.
Michelle Wolfe 4:23
To come here and do this. Yeah.
It's a new favorite.

What insights does Michelle provide about her creative process?

I put it on for my children.
Michelle Wolfe 4:29
that's good i wonder if you know the way what is it dark side of the moon by pink floyd if you play it's meant to sync with the wizard of oz yes was the old line if you play the milania movie if you play it backwards it syncs with all the epstein videos
