What is the premise of “What Did You Do Yesterday?” and why is it unique?
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'll 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'Daherdie. 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's Max Schroshton. Alongside me, today, Irish funny man David O'Dohadi. Welcome, David. It's the most
Yesterday time of the week. It is. It really is. Listeners, long-term listeners will recognize that voice. That's the voice of a man who was on a plane for 24 hours and is just back in Australia. G'day.
Good day. As producer Will said, he edits the yesterdays and uh he occasionally hears there's the odd word I say where I sound incredibly Australian. And we suggested they were Struth, Coba, uh and Sheila. They're the ones, aren't they? Yes, I'm back in the motherland. But the podcast stays the same. Because we, as we know, are an international podcast. Only three countries.
With no listens. So This podcast we're so international, it's a bit like when Rory Stewart and Alistair Campbell they might announce just in passing, I'm actually in Kosovo at the moment. You know what I mean? The thing about us is you never know what country we're gonna be in.
Although Arbul made the point, how could you guys walk past the fact that in the same week the Houthis stole our tea tells? What did you do yesterday? You got two listens in Yemen. In it for life.
They were listening to decide they did not like it at all.
Much love for Rob Rouse. Oh my goodness. It was an epic, wasn't it, Tessa? On a level with the epic Justin Morehouse Day, Phil, my two absolute favourite comedians, plus my favourite podcaster, what an episode. Rob literally making paint dry sound hilarious. He did, didn't he? David just quotes, without going into too much detail, like a cement mixer going down a well, of which Tiny Otto Paul said, That made me laugh so much I swerved into oncoming traffic. And Lynethly Boy says I named my first car after Rob.
Bob Rouse is dead duck. My favorite part of the episode, and there are a few actually, but is where mother-in-law in the garden gets possibly a Sainsbury's delivery. He looks into the granny flat forty five minutes later, and her and the delivery man are both praying. That just came as a delightful
Surprise. Although there are some accusations that Rob is gaslighting his mother-in-law by criticizing her for keeping someone on a line and talking forever as we sat there on hour six of the record. And he's saying, She does not half talk. Uh Johnny says, This is on calculators. My world has been rocked. The discussion around the upcoming maths season has exposed my misused youth on the calculator. calculators a as we used to go for the more fulsome arithmetic of boobies eight zero zero eight one three five as opposed to booblus eight zero zero seven three five five.
How do Max and David describe their recent international travels and the “prestige broadcasting” vibe?
Incredible revelation. Yeah that's it. Yeah. It
says Johnny. To you I say hello and also I offer at Simple Three as a Bald Man's Comb. Is that what a bald man's comb? I think that's what it was. Lovely bit of feedback here from long term listener Bee Fox. Her mother was a B, her father was a Fox. Mm-hmm. So there was a discussion of the department store of Sheffield and there was a lot of people reminiscing about times they'd sped in this shop that just seems to sell everything.
