What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
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? My name is Max Rushton and alongside me for the journey for the rest of his life, David O'Doherty. Hello, David.
And twiddling the knobs today is producer Will. We don't give him a shout out at the start, but I don't think he's important enough. Is he included in it for life? Does he have to keep doing this when he gets to a sort of Sir George Martin producing the Beatles level? He'll have to be like a... Oh, sorry, Paul. I've got to go and record this stupid podcast where people talk about cheese.
He's younger than us, though. So like when we're 90 and he's 75 and he'd be like, actually, those still are those old boys are still kicking. He wants to enjoy his retirement in his little cottage in the Cotswolds. And we'd be like, sorry, we've got another one. We've got another. We want to talk to Nish Kumar about his 90-year-old bowels. Come on. Let's do this. Now, there's lots of things to get through. Now, we need to plug the live show in Melbourne. It says it with five exclamation marks at the top of this Google Doc. David, I don't know why so many. We haven't checked. Maybe we're sold out. I checked. Okay.
Yeah, I checked the numbers. What are the numbers? I mean... Flatlining is a term that's overused. And normally it would imply death, you know what I mean? But not in this case. It implies a sleeping giant whereby a certain cohort, almost two eager people have bought. But now the real legends are just waiting to pounce. I ask you, when the tiger is squatting in the long grass about to eat a family, is it dead? No, it's just waiting to pounce.
I'm slightly surprised that our idea of charging people for baggage like Ryanair didn't suddenly inspire a thousand more people to buy tickets. Anyway, Freya, who says she's from Perth slash London, says, on your most recent ep, you asked for suggestions for the most famous Australian song for the Melbourne live show. Yes. Having been at the OG Hackney live show and thoroughly enjoying the rendition of Dancing in the Moonlight, I'll also be at the Melbourne show. And the two iconic choices have to be either Down Under by Men at Work or Never Tear Us Apart by NXS. Thanks, Freya. I'm worried that David will file them both under what would insert boring comedian would do. No, that feels rude to Freya, but like they're too obvious for a man of David's whimsy, I say.
Well, I mean, I have a feeling that if you had your way, we would do Natalie Imbruglia's follow-up single to Torn.
Big mistake. Big mistake. Great song.
Yeah. So there's a spectrum here that I'm trying to deal with, Natalie.
Cause you're down on your knees. It's too late.
That's a great song. It's a great song. Did she sing? Didn't want to leave you with the last impression. Didn't want to. Is that Natalie?
I don't know. I'm not sure.
Talk. I'm going to look.
Sometimes we wonder if we're going to retain our audience. I think it's moments where David is Googling songs to check.
Wrong impression. Yeah, it doesn't make sense. What I sang was the lyric didn't want to leave you with the last impression. But in fact, that's what you do want to leave someone with.
