What is the main question this podcast seeks to answer?

David O'Doherty 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
Max Rushden 0:30
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?
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 1:01
Hello and welcome to What Did You Do Yesterday? Midweek Mayhem. This is huge. With me, David O'Doherty, and joining me today is special guest Max Rushton. I don't know how I feel about this.
Max Rushden 1:15
Now, I have occasionally done the easy chair alongside Paul Hawksby, who is a master of the craft. And I don't mind it, you know, and I don't want to get possessive, because I think the way you began that episode was very good, but you can just tell my tone. I feel uncomfortable on that side of these things.
David O'Doherty 1:31
It doesn't come natural to me, you know. I definitely sound like... Who's your favorite TV chat show where the guest host would just be? I mean, it's a bad example, but Bill Cosby used to fill in for Jay Leno. Right. Okay. So I'm Jay Leno and you're Bill Cosby. Oh God, no. You should have started it, Max. I'll never do that again.
Max Rushden 1:56
I'm so sorry, everyone. The Bill Cosby of Dublin. David O'Doherty is here. Now, I'm getting a bit of stick for various reasons, David. Matt says, hello, DOD Max and producer Mars Bar. When using his seasoned journalistic chops to drill into the details of David's ultimately fruitless attempts to repressurize the helicopter's boiler, which is not a euphemism, Max asked whether David was... Max asked whether David was Corby registered. If he were, this would only license him to fix trouser presses in mid-range 1990s hotels. It is a far cry from being Corby gas registered, although even that has been discontinued since 2009. It's now gas safe register.

What humorous anecdotes do Max and David share about their past experiences?

Max Rushden 2:37
If David was watching YouTube videos about how to fix gadgets to remove wrinkles from chinos, that would probably explain why he couldn't sort out the boiler. Keep up the sensational work.
David O'Doherty 2:46
In it for life, Matt. I remember this. I did try to repressurize the boiler, but I didn't step beyond what you're allowed to do as a mere mortal. And we did end up, there's a plumbing supplies shop on my road. We ended up getting one of their mates to come. Amazing how quick. This podcast gets to literally the dullest places on earth, doesn't it? It's like two minutes. The fellow said that I'd had a good old go, but it was time for me to sit back and let the master take over.
Max Rushden 3:22
It's like before the paramedics get there. You've done a pretty good job of resuscitating. You know, you've done staying alive. You've done some mouth to mouth. But now it's time for the experts to step in. I once held the drip. for a man who'd broken his pelvis wow i don't know why i'm telling this story i'll tell it another time it's not relevant it doesn't it's no link to it yeah it's no link to it at all hang on what is the staying alive is that you keep the beat that's when you're meant to go uh beat to the beat yeah because if you do other bg songs it can cause all sorts of damage
David O'Doherty 3:57
How deep is your love?
Max Rushden 4:03
Because on How Deep Is Your Love, you can't help pushing hard on love.
David O'Doherty 4:07
And that's when the ribs go. I do remember my father once tried to teach me how to play golf. Bracket's not that successful. And he said the key to golf. Yeah. And this is a man of a 19 handicap at his best telling you what the essence of the game is, is the blue Danube, the song. Yeah. Because it goes. So that's what you should have in your mind.
