What did David 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 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 and welcome to Midweek Mayhem. From the people that bring you What Did You Do Yesterday, I'm Max Rushton and he is David O'Doherty. Welcome, David. Do not disturb.
That's what I've just told my phone just because I don't know what it's like. Maybe it's different for you because it's later in the evening, but I get maybe a thousand missed calls when I switch my phone off for an hour. You know what I mean? Of course, yeah.
But I'm always, I honestly, my phone is just, it's going off in the WhatsApp groups. It's just footballers. It's just Leroy Leta wants this. Dave Kitson wants this. Reinhard Desaiaf, the USSR 1988 goalkeeper, he wants this. Leave me alone, Reinhard.
Do you think they want to be on What Did You Do Yesterday? Or they want you to mention them on Guardian Football Weekly? You know, you'd be like, do you know who had a great game this week? Reina Daseyev. Yeah. On this day in 1988.
Well, it's a mix. Some of them who eschew the game, who don't like the game. They're just good at the game. They're big fans of What Did You Do Yesterday? Sylvain Distan famously loves this part. I have to ask you, how's your neck?
You seem to be turning, as you said, Sylvan Distan there. I saw good movement in it. Whereas last week's pod was really dominated by you complaining that you had slept wonkily on your neck.
Well, famously, no one can say Sylvain Distan without turning their head a full 360 degrees like The Exorcist, which made it harder for commentators and managers at the time. But I may have overstayed. There may have been some hyperbole in my fears of my paralysis. And actually, it's been totally fine. I haven't needed to go back to the chiropractor.
What interesting topics are covered in the A to Z of things they like?
But do you notice anything different about me?
You're in the same kind of indescribably bland T-shirt you're always in.
Have you got a haircut, Max? No, I have cut my own hair, but that's not it. I've got my AirPods. No way! I've got my AirPods. And this is exciting. From Ian Daniel, D-A-N-I-E-L-L. He's an artist in Perth. He's actually a really good artist. We got in touch through Football Weekly, but only on your recommendation of find my AirPods. Thank you to Robin, who lives really close to me. She triangulated where I lived from the podcast. She lives around the corner. And she was going to Perth on a work trip. And I was going to use her if Ian hadn't come up trumps. Ian took a photo of Qantas baggage services saying, here we go. 12.24 p.m. on the day. 12.27. Can you go to settings, he writes. Bluetooth, click on device. There's a little I. That will give us the serial number.
The serial number will let us know which ones yours are. There are about 50 boxes here. Wow. Anyway, on this thing, it says play a sound. So you can say play a sound.
Yes.
So I played it. I said, I've hit play a sound. He says, we're not getting a sound yet. I sent him the serial number. CMVD4VK16R.
Wow.
Your nickname. He sends me a picture of so many AirPods cases. It's sort of like a post-apocalyptic world where the only thing that has survived are AirPods cases. I say, what a haul. Say I lost 25 pairs. 12.31 p.m. He says, we've got them. I say, amazing. This is thrilling. I feel like Simon Pegg in Mission Impossible.
