What did David do yesterday at Gatwick Airport?
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? No.
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 whatever episode this is of Midweek Mayhem. David O'Doherty is there in front of me.
Welcome to Guardian Football Weekly with me, Jonathan Lew. You'd be good at it.
What are the implications of our lawsuit against Elon Musk?
How are you, David? I'm good. Look, I'm not allowed to complain about being tired, so I won't.
but i told you hang on you did in the whatsapp group said you know we're recording at 9 30 a.m your time because you wouldn't do 9 a.m because quote i'm a wreck and you send that to a man with a three week old baby and i looked at it when are you all right that's okay i can go to bed late that's fine
also how many discussions on this podcast have essentially been stand-up comedy is the hardest job in the world maybe since some feudal job where you had to chase lost sheep on cliffs stand-up comedy is so so hard I did pool with an E for the first time pool, which is South coast. So in some of these big theaters, there's two venues in the same venue. And I mean, this is pretty rare, but backstage or all the signs welcome you and the other act playing the other one, Jason Donovan. Yeah. Oh, really good. So Donovan and O'Doherty. So it did appear like we were on the same bill because it did say David O'Doherty, Jason Donovan, so that I was supporting him. He was playing the larger room, you would have to say.
But do you want to know an amazing fact? This is knowing your audience. And we should think about this for the inevitable merch that will come from this podcast. Jason Donovan's Audience are a lot of ladies in their 50s in particular. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Water bottles. Ah, is that the thing? There were 20 quid for the Jason Donovan water bottles. And he sold, someone in the venue said, a thousand.
What?
He's clearing 20K on water bottles to hot ladies. We need to figure out, like calendars, what is the essential yesterday piece of... Why don't we just copy everything Jason Donovan does?
So presumably we start the gig by singing Any Dream Will Do, the two of us. Then we'd tell some anecdotes about what it was like in Neighbours. Then we sing Too Many Broken Hearts. Oh, my God.
How does the cheese game progress in this episode?
And then, obviously, no one is allowed water during the gig. Perhaps that's something he does. Oh, yes. But he only sells salty snacks. Okay. So smart. Scampi all he has is... Scampi and salted popcorn and pretzels. So we do those, but we could make them, you know, what did you do yesterday pretzels? And then we say, you can't have water, but you have to be in a what did you do yesterday water bottle. And then we clean up.
But we clean up especially for you. Really good. Really good.
I mean, I did a radio show with Jason Donovan once. And for some reason, he was doing The Breakfast Show on BBC London. I think I was like the early morning reporter, you know, like the wacky guy in the radio car. And I was doing a report on level crossings in South Hall to Jason Donovan. But he went for a poo in the 8 o'clock news and didn't come back for 15 minutes. I missed a whole section of the show. It's very impersonable.
It would be a wrong choice. Maybe he needs to drink some of his own water bottles then. Maybe that was the problem with keep the whole thing moving.
Now, look, we're skirting around the big news, aren't we, David?
