What did Max do yesterday that led to a discussion about his health?
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? What Did You Do Yesterday? Hello and welcome to Midweek Mayhem from the people that bring you What Did You Do Yesterday, the spin-off midweek podcast. I'm Max Rushton and alongside me today is Irish comedian David O'Doherty. Welcome, David. Just two Aussies here enjoying their Aussie lives, hanging out at Billabong's, going for a surf. Listeners, I am still in Australia. I can't believe you told me to rack off last night because I danced inappropriately with Sheila at the Yabby Creek Disco. My friend Tiff was once in Home and Away. Oh, yes. And she was a schoolteacher.
Oh, good. And I think I have her plot right. It's the most Home and Away possible plot. She arrives into Summer Bay on night one. She's a schoolteacher. Kisses someone in the surf club, maybe. Oh, no, it's the headmaster. No, I mean, it's a student in one of her classes. Right, right. It's frowned upon these days. Yeah, this is 15 years ago. And then, oh my goodness, she's not going to make that mistake again. But a while later, has a brief romantic liaison with another person in Suburb A. It's the parent-teacher meeting. It's that guy's father. Oh, no. Yeah, two generations. Oh. Don't do that. That's the one thing I've learned about Australia. Yeah. And teaching. Actually, it works for all teachers all around the world.
Sam writes, I was listening to the Chris Addison episode while driving last night. My car kept mysteriously beeping. I couldn't locate the source of the issue. I eventually parked and opened and firmly shut my boot in case it was that. I resumed driving, but the beeping continued. And it was then that I realized it was happening every time Addison said, ****.
****.
It's an interesting sort of editorial point, I guess. Andy said, what's the point of doing a warning? There's going to be a ton of C-bombs dropped. And then they beat them all out. World's gone mad. Probably something to do with woke. I think I'm on the side of bleeping them out. It wasn't my choice. How do you feel, Donald? It's a family-friendly podcast, after all. My thought would actually have been just sometimes when you put a heavy object on the passenger seat and your car thinks it's a passenger who hasn't put their seatbelt on. Firstly, that would be my first thought. Secondly, yeah, I don't mind beeping them out, but real hardcore Morse coders listening will be delighted to know that if you dot dash all of the beeps, it then says that word again.
Right.
How did the conversation shift to the topic of Australian culture?
You can't get away from it. ACDC says, some of the best Radio 3 slash Russian composer dialogue we've had on the pod to date. I agree. Some of the other chat that we've done about that has been a bit dry, but this really brought it to life. And here is a great email. It's quite long, but it's really good from someone called Ben. Hey, Ben. Dear Max and David, a story I'd like to share, definitely not from yesterday, but please bear with me. In late 1996, I'd just finished university, and like many young people in Manchester, I was trying to avoid a real job by hoping to make it with my indie guitar band. Oh, yeah. Good stuff. Within a couple of months... Wow. Wow. Right. Yeah. This seemed simple enough, and I thought I'd hit the ground running, but after a few days, I'd get the odd comment while walking around the building like, the guy that did it before was better, and can you make the email a bit funnier?
