What is the main topic of this episode?

Max Rushden 0:02
Podcasts, there are millions of them.
David O'Doherty 0:08
Some might say too many.
Max Rushden 0:10
I have one already.
David O'Doherty 0:11
I don't have any, because there are enough.
Max Rushden 0:14
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.
David O'Doherty 0:20
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.
Max Rushden 0:30
Possibly, but not us. We're here to ask the only question that matters.
David O'Doherty 0:35
We try and say it at the same time, Max.
Max Rushden 0:37
What did you do yesterday?
David O'Doherty 0:37
What did you do yesterday?
Max Rushden 0:38
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?
Max Rushden 0:49
Unless it was yesterday, we don't want to know about it. I'm Max Rushton.
David O'Doherty 0:53
And I'm David O'Doherty.
Max Rushden 0:55
Welcome to What Did You Do Yesterday? David O'Doherty is now recording. And that means we can start midweek mayhem. And it's a great shame that David didn't start recording a minute earlier because he was trying to estimate how much a bath.
David O'Doherty 1:11
Okay. No, no, no, no. Also, I hate to start on this note. We have to stop talking about shitting. We have to. Do you think so?

How does Max feel about his coffee order experience?

David O'Doherty 1:22
Well, I listened back to last week's Midweek Mayhem. Ooh la la.
Max Rushden 1:26
Yeah. Actually, we have got some feedback on that from Michael Gregory 75002 on Spotify. What's he saying? Referring to bonus episode 22, The Cascade of Negligence. Just awful. Absolutely dreadful. I regret giving this my time. Seriously. Counting farts with a clicker and monitoring a child's potty training is considered entertaining.
Yeah.
Max Rushden 1:48
And when I read that in the cold light of day, David, I did think... I'm worried what this has become.
David O'Doherty 1:57
I'm worried what this has become. There was a bit where there was a succession of we love our feedback, but where one would be just a tale about a dump and the next would be a dog shitting in a washing machine and the turd coming out. And then the next one is don't teach a cat to shit in a dishwasher. And then the next one would, you know what I mean?
Max Rushden 2:18
But we can't help where the feedback goes. And maybe, you know, we have become the sort of, this is the repository is the wrong word for these people who want to get these tails off their chest. And there's no way you can't just ring up five live. You can't ring up Nicky Campbell and say, he's never saying what with all in the world today has a dog and a vet. Have you ever accidentally thrown an entire dog in a washing machine? So maybe this is what we're to become. We can't control these things. We're just a conduit to the messages from the people. Okay, well, hopefully the feedback. I don't think there is one bit of feedback on that, but I can overlook it. Ashley wrote this, must have listened to the Gary Lineker pod.
Max Rushden 2:59
Steve wrote, Lineker had a longstanding impact on Japanese culture with marshmallow-based treats. Many other people got in touch with us. as the Japanese ambassador to the UK, Hiroshi Suzuki, shortly after the Gary Lineker Wagon Wheel episode, just tweeted a picture of him saying, tea cakes for breakfast, with the emoji smiling with the tongue hanging out, and a picture of a very friendly-looking Japanese man with one unwrapped tonic tea cake and two wrapped in front of him with a Paddington toy, and I would say, for me, a terrible coffee, but we don't need to go there anymore. Thank you so much for everyone suggesting that the Japanese ambassador to the UK is listening to the podcast and therefore being influenced, knowing that Lineker had such an important part to play in Japanese football and has taken that on.
Max Rushden 3:46
Shame it wasn't a wagon wheel.
David O'Doherty 3:48
Oh, so this wasn't a Photoshop picture. This was an actual picture.
Max Rushden 3:51
Hiroshi Suzuki is eating three Tonex tea cakes for breakfast. I mean, literally pretty much the day after or maybe three days after the Gary Lineker episode was released. It can't be a coincidence.
David O'Doherty 4:05
Maybe wherever Lineker's been around the world, in Catalonia as well, they just eat marshmallow-based breakfast treats.
