What did Max 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? No.
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 is the new half-time quiz 'They're Just Normal Countries' about?
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, welcome to episode something. Bonus episode 22, it says here. Wow, what did you do yesterday? Midweek mayhem.
How do listener emails influence the podcast's content?
I'm Max Rushton. David O'Doherty is sitting opposite me. Welcome.
It's a wonderful start. We don't bring it out often, but I just thought, I don't know. Since the demise of the cheese game, much missed cheese game. And then this week also the demise of Mushroom Spritzbot as well, which... And it was an emotional moment when Mushroom Spritzpot, which has been reminding me to squish water at the bag of mushrooms and shit that I got for the helicopter for her birthday, officially ceased and said goodbye, signing off with the saluting emoji.
Yeah, Godspeed, said Mushroom Spritzpot. I was going to put that right at the end and hope that producer Miles Barber put abide with me at the end this week. as we stood in silence to commemorate Mushroom. Interestingly, as you say, we don't often go bejewing. We're probably the podcast that has bejewing the least. There was one excellent piece of feedback from the Matty Crosby episode, David, where I was talking about, rather than you and the comedian wanging on about their craft, I was talking about my craft and how, you know, once I've once, you know, if I've done a good line and it's in rehearsal, it's gone forever.
What amusing anecdotes do Max and David share?
This is Jim here. Send me this. And below it is a tweet that I sent saying five years ago today, Trevor Nelson and me handing him a microwave.
Yeah, the fact that I repeat every single joke. hammer it to death.
And yet in that moment with Matthew Crosby, I was being genuine that like once a moment has gone, but it turns out that I basically have three anecdotes and I repeat them. So I've been busted.
My colleague, if I could just say early doors, you said you were about to tell us your escalator anecdote, but you've never actually said that one. So you do, you're always holding one back. People, listeners, you'll know that. This podcast has run out of legs if Max begins the escalator anecdote.
Oh, it's quite a good one. Anyway, just some feedback. Adam Buxton feedback. This is great from Tom, who says, Hi, both.
How do Max and David discuss parenting challenges?
I haven't listened to every single episode. Apologies. So not sure if this has happened before, but I just listened to the Adam Buxton episode and it has stirred me to write in. I actually saw Adam and his son sprinting past me at Waterloo to catch their drunk Australian performance.
As a longtime fan of Adam, I was genuinely interested to know where he was going and why he was running so fast. So getting the details on the pod was genuinely thrilling and enlightening. Isn't that a great moment? Imagine thinking, ah, I will never know where Adam Buxton and his two sons are running. And then just to chance upon the only podcast where that could ever possibly come out.
So good. If you have ever seen a guest on What Did You Do Yesterday doing what they did yesterday, please let us know. And you're in line for, well, the, was it a Ford Fiesta full of cheese before? It was a Nissan Micra full of cheese. If you have a good story about a guest doing the thing they actually did yesterday, you're in line for a Daihatsu charade full of my old clothes.
