What is the main question of the podcast?
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 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 Russian and he is David O'Doherty. David, hello. Coming to you live from Davos. Oh yeah, good. I thought so. It's sort of like where the world's most important people all come. Not many people came to our sit down panel, did they? We had asked the head of the World Bank and Marco Rubio, and we were going to try and hammer out a few things. Well, no, it was Rubio when we said, what did you, he just wouldn't really play with what did you do yesterday? You know, it was very matter of fact, it was a short episode.
It'll be out soon. Huge news. What's the news? So I found the trousers in 2016. As you know, six foot mother, five foot five father have begat a strangely shaped boy with little legs like an Ewok. Yeah. And then. And when you run, it makes the little noise in cartoons. Diddly diddly diddly. But I am almost un-knockoverable. Like that is the positive. Like, you know, the footage you see of the young Messi where six different Real Madrid players are trying to viciously hack him. That's me in life. How often are people trying to knock you over? Just generally, I sort of like, it's sort of stopped happening after for me at the age of, I don't know, about 11. It's like the Bittersweet Symphony, Richard Ashcroft, Verve video.
That's my whole life. When I walk up the street, people are just trying to hack me. They're just bouncing off you. I'm riding tackles. Anyway, the trousers. No, to use a football analogy, I'm the young Messi. Thanks, because I understand nothing else. Yes. And you are Claudio Canigia from the 1990 World Cup against Cameroon.
Got it.
Three different people tried to foul him. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And the third guy, like, heads him. Stands him to orbit. About nipple height, and he 360s in the air. That's me.
What interesting day did Max have yesterday?
Okay. And... cinderella like in 2016 i tried on a pair of trousers and i heard a glockenspiel sound of my legs saying we are home this arduous journey is over Yeah. These trousers were a short-lived Levi cycling trouser called the commuter trouser. And you would see them for the next couple of years. 2018, they just stopped making them. No one wants them. They're just like, who is this shape, basically? They're like 42-inch waist, 24-inch leg. Is that... I mean, I will tell you something bleak about them. The helicopter is a long-legged person, kind of like, you know, in the canal, you see those birds with a long beak and legs like straws. She's a heron. She's a heron. She's a flamingo, and you are a chipmunk.
My waist leg, she is the exact opposite of that. So surely the trousers that you both wear must be the same surface area if you can adjust them. So you could take her trousers and widen and shorten her trousers. It's not often on this podcast that your A-level in advanced mathematics comes up. Yeah, I look forward to this being debunked. But the area, which of course is length by breadth, is going to be the same for both of us, even though I'm a 36 waist and 29 inside leg, and she is a 29 waist and a 36 leg. Anyway, I have every known alert set up if these trousers were to appear on any of the clothing.
