What did David do yesterday?

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? What did you do yesterday?

How does David's yesterday compare to Max's?

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. And I'm David O'Doherty. Welcome to What Did You Do Yesterday? Hello, and welcome to What Did You Do Yesterday? This is Midweek Mayhem. I'm Max Rushton. David O'Doherty is there. David, it feels like I saw you just moments ago.
David O'Doherty 1:09
Does it feel like I'm in an exotic French Gaelic-type place, and at any moment, asterisks and obelisks, your faves, could just wander in behind me? Because it should, because I'm in France.
Max Rushden 1:22
Absolutely. Gerard Depardieu is behind you, just eating a chicken leg, just slobbering it into his mouth.
David O'Doherty 1:29
He took a wee on an Aer Lingus flight a few years ago. I think they said you can't get up to go to the loo. So he just did it in the old corridor.
Max Rushden 1:42
Which is in the aisle?
David O'Doherty 1:43
From his seat.

What interesting events happened during the podcast recording?

Max Rushden 1:44
Yeah. I don't think he's a great bloke.
David O'Doherty 1:46
I thought you were about to defend it there. You were going to go, nah, nah. You see, the thing about Gerard is... You've got to see it from both sides, haven't you?
Max Rushden 1:56
So this is the day listeners will possibly listen to this on the way to What Did You Do Yesterday Live. Wow. So that's exciting. So if you get in touch with the podcast because you're coming to the show and you've got anything you want to tell us, do it. We might read it out on the show because we've got a production meeting WhatsApp group where David and I put in different ideas and then we just put in different ideas.
Yeah.
David O'Doherty 2:22
So to the listeners who are or are not attending the live show, me and Max have never done this together. In fact, we have done this entirely separately with a tiny delay usually because Max is in Australia. And my fear is that that delay will transfer into real life. That as soon as you say anything, I'll count to 1001. And then I'll say something sassy back to you.
Max Rushden 2:50
When I'm back in the UK and I'm doing talk sport shows in the studio with Charlie Baker or Barry Glendening, people always say, look, you've got to be in the room, guys. To make these things work, you've got to be in the room. So I make a point on air of saying, I need to make these shows a bit worse than the ones where I'm not in the room. So the bosses go, you can't be in the room. So then I'm allowed to carry on doing the shows from Australia. Have I seen you...
David O'Doherty 3:15
in the flesh since we started doing the podcast no the last time i saw you was when we went to a small pub in melbourne and what's the name the guy with the song about the shoes didn't turn up palinatini Paolo Nettini, old shoesy boy, did not turn up. And that is two years ago, probably.
Max Rushden 3:38
How should we greet each other when we see each other? Oh. Do you want a big, long embrace?
David O'Doherty 3:45
Interesting.
Max Rushden 3:46
Or do you want just a very professional handshake as colleagues, as just colleagues?
Yeah.
David O'Doherty 3:51
Or how about we don't, it's like the Eagles and we don't meet till we get out on stage. You know what I mean? We're delivered in separate limos to other sides of the stage. And then we walk out. What I'm looking forward to most from the live show is when the texts from Mrs. Rushton start to come in.
Are you still doing this?
David O'Doherty 4:12
That's at 10 past eight, 10 minutes in.
Max Rushden 4:15
Please hurry up. We should put them on a big screen.

What funny anecdotes arise from David's time in France?

Max Rushden 4:22
No, she's hoping to come. She's hoping to get her babies to come and then the babysitter will message her. What we could do is she could sit on the stage with her phone and then as soon as Ian or Willie wake up, she'll just leave and everyone will know what's happened then.
