0:00 - 0:11
Podcasts, there are millions of them. Some might say too many. I have one already.
0:11 - 0:20
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.
0:20 - 0:25
But nobody is covering the most important topic of all. Why is that? Are they scared?
0:25 - 0:34
Too afraid of being censored by the man? Possibly, but not us. We're here to ask the only question that matters.
0:34 - 0:38
We try and say it at the same time, Max. What did you do yesterday?
0:38 - 0:44
What did you do yesterday? That's it. All we're interested in is what the guests got up to yesterday, nothing more.
0:44 - 0:51
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.
0:51 - 1:06
I'm Max Rushden. And I'm David O'Doherty. Welcome to What Did You Do Yesterday? Good evening, hello, or good morning, depending on when you're listening, or good day.
1:06 - 1:15
This is Midweek Mayhem. Wow, new intro here. Do you know what I wanted? I just wanted to start this one with a bit more punch than last week's Midweek Mayhem.
1:15 - 1:20
Oh, yeah, yeah. That very much. I sort of fell onto the page there, and I didn't want that.
1:20 - 1:33
I was worried I'd set a precedent for the broadcasting levels on this podcast. That sounded like the king's speech, that you were about to deliver a motivational, this was their finest hour.
1:33 - 1:47
The thing that stayed with me from our recent chats, Max, is the, and I'm so sorry to the listeners for this, is just worm feet, because it appeared in a dream.
1:47 - 1:56
So it's basically, you see, oh my goodness, you see sort of fossils of worms going up your ankles.
1:56 - 2:04
Yeah, you see the trails. They're sort of like... They're like red. Imagine the motorways on the map of Britain were red and not blue.
2:04 - 2:10
It would look like that. It would look like that. Yeah, but it was just on the top of my feet, my sort of metatarsal region.
2:10 - 2:20
It didn't go onto the shin or anything. You're lucky it didn't coincide with probably the greatest disagreement we've ever had, which was your advocacy for the short sock.
2:20 - 2:28
Yeah, that is true. You did admit live on the podcast, you enjoyed those little natty socks.
2:28 - 2:38
And do you know what? I've kind of stopped wearing them since. I now wear a full ankle, you know, above the ankle sock almost every day now.
2:38 - 2:51
Do you want some feedback? Go on. James says, hello, Max and David. I'm a bit delayed in suggesting due to catching up on episodes, but David's cooking fusion scenario missed a golden opportunity in my opinion.
2:51 - 2:59
As an Irishman blending Italian ragu with Mexican burrito styles, he should have fused with Norwegian cuisine, not Japanese.
2:59 - 3:11
Thus replicating the four countries from group E of USA 94. Will he ever get the chance again?
3:11 - 3:16
Only time will tell. Thank you, James. That's a great spot, isn't it? Yeah. Lovely spot.
3:16 - 3:26
Carl says, hi, lads. I'm a few weeks behind and I've just finished listening to Rhys James' episode where he describes Tom Rosenthal's prodigious birthday pineapple consumption.
3:26 - 3:38
You wanted to know how much pineapple we've eaten in a day, When I was training for a marathon, after a 20-mile run in the heat, I nipped into Tesco Extra, where they had two very large, very ripe pineapples,
3:38 - 3:48
reduced to clear for about 10p each. I bought both, got them home, and with an insatiable thirst and sugar lust, ate them both in one sitting.
3:48 - 3:57
What? Shortly afterwards, my lips peeled, my tongue peeled, and I'm extremely sorry to say, my anus peeled.
3:59 - 4:07
It is a shame that the pod format will mean you will never be able to ask Tom if he suffered the same tropical consequences.
4:07 - 4:20
Thanks, Carl. And we couldn't, because Tom ate no pineapple on his yesterday. Pineapple's one of those magical foods, isn't it, that it's better for you if you eat it in its raw form,
4:20 - 4:26
because the fiber all breaks down if you try and make a pineapple smoothie or whatever.
4:26 - 4:35
But, yeah, there is that downside. What, your anus will peel? Yeah, they should put that warning on pineapples.
4:35 - 4:42
I don't think, I mean, I rarely, how often do you buy a pineapple? I reckon I buy two a year, I'm going to say, maximum two a year.
4:42 - 4:49
And I don't often check the stickers on things. But I don't think it says risk of anal peeling.
4:49 - 4:56
I don't think. There's got to be someone from our many, many listeners who's a pineapple expert.
4:56 - 5:02
Does the science back this up? Is that a real? A dangerous problem? I could get in touch with a man from Del Monte.
5:02 - 5:12
I played cricket with him. Of course. Anyway, Tom says, dear Max and David, I found your pod via Max's football work.
5:12 - 5:21
Yes, I'm a big fan of both of you. He says, although not yesterday, three days ago, despite my Italian partner dismissing me as gassy and dramatic, I ended up having my appendix removed.
5:21 - 5:31
At 3 a.m. post-op, as a gentleman noisily relieved himself into a commode uncomfortably close to my head, separated only by a thin curtain, your podcast offered me much-needed light relief.
5:31 - 5:36
I realized while laughing that he could hear me and perhaps thought I was laughing at his dramatic grunts.
5:36 - 5:39
I tried to avoid eye contact for the rest of my time on the ward.
5:39 - 5:49
Thank you for at least masking the noise of scatology with discussions of it. Keep up the great work, Tom.
5:49 - 5:55
Thank you, Tom. Yet another use for this podcast. You can listen to it while you're milking cows.
5:55 - 6:03
You can listen to it while someone's relieving themselves close to your head or if you're trying to build a heron deterrent with a woodwind instrument.
6:03 - 6:10
It's also incredibly useful. This is from Jess. It was a review before we asked for cheese-based reviews.
6:10 - 6:14
And it's quite complimentary, but it's, you know, I don't like to read just compliments, but it's good at the end.
6:14 - 6:21
I must admit, I feel like I'm cheating on my old favorite podcasts, but I have to be honest and say that this is the podcast I look forward to the most.
6:21 - 6:28
And I'm so happy we get a bonus episode each week. The title, by the way, is Came for David, Stayed for the Joy of It All.
6:28 - 6:33
I love Max's laugh. As an Australian Victorian, I love hearing his references to Aussie places and things.
6:33 - 6:36
It does also make me feel like I have a much more productive life than I thought I did.
6:36 - 6:46
That was one of the aims of this. As a strange and unexpected side effect, I have found myself saying to my kids on more than one occasion, if it didn't happen yesterday, I don't want to hear about it.
6:46 - 6:57
That's why she should never become a therapist, you know, where let's go back and try and work.
6:57 - 7:09
No, no, no, no. It is a tricky one that the Aussie town, city, place pronunciation, because sometimes, have you noticed this, Max?
7:09 - 7:26
The Aussies want you to say it almost in a comical Aussie accent. Like take, there's a place called Cairns, C-A-I-R-N-S, which I pronounce as Cairns, but they leave out, they don't really do the R that much.
7:26 - 7:33
I know Irish people overdo the R's. They say Cairns. Yeah. And I'll go Cairns.
7:33 - 7:43
And they're like, no, Cairns. Yeah. So interestingly, Australians really don't like people just putting on shit Australian accents to their faces.
7:43 - 7:52
And, you know, unsurprisingly, and I've seen my wife had that in London a lot, where, you know, even really nice people that we really liked would go, struth, cobber.
7:52 - 7:56
And she'd be like, oh, I mean, what do you want me to do? Like, you know.
7:56 - 8:05
Well, on this tour at the moment around your house, your homeland, a lot of the time in hotels, they'll be like, what name is it?
8:05 - 8:11
I'll be like, David O'Doherty. And they're like, what is this little rhyme that this man has said?
8:11 - 8:25
So they'll say, can you spell it? And then when I spell my name in order to check in to the Holiday Inn in Coventry, I will sort of ingo it up a little bit.
8:25 - 8:36
So I'll be like, O-D-O. Basically, I'd say H there, but you say H. So I sort of D-O-H-E.
8:36 - 8:45
And then I'd go R normally, but you don't say that. So I have to go D-O-H-E-R-T-Y, like I'm Jeremy Irons or something.
8:45 - 8:51
Yeah. Well, no, you're just like a social chameleon. I think it's totally acceptable. Cheers, mate.
8:51 - 8:59
Mick says, hi, Max and David. Listen to the Mark Watson episode. I was reminded of my favorite celebrity restaurant endorsement here in Edinburgh, plastered all over the walls.
8:59 - 9:04
And the takeaway menu of our local Chinese restaurant was a quote from Ken Hom of Hot Wok fame.
9:04 - 9:11
Wow. Was it excellent? Did it espouse the tremendous flavors? No, the quote, of which they were so proud, was better than expected.
9:11 - 9:22
Sadly, the restaurant's no longer with us, despite Ken's best efforts. Great show as always, Mick.
9:22 - 9:27
Thank you, Mick. Should we do a curdle, burdle? Curdle, what did you fondue yesterday?
9:27 - 9:32
I'd love to. Please consult. Come on, get one, please. Okay, do you want to do the buzzer or not?
9:32 - 9:47
You don't have to. I really went for it there. You know, I think I need that as a ringtone or just if I'm feeling totally sort of annihilated with exhaustion because I have two children.
9:47 - 9:58
Do you think I could do a cameo where my whole cameo thing is just me doing the buzzer from Catchphrase?
9:58 - 10:03
This week, it's the turn of... Blitz and Bob's via their five-star review on iTunes.
10:03 - 10:15
If you'd like to enter a curdle, presuming that Blitz and Bob's doesn't get all five cheeses, they're just normal cheeses, then you have to do it via a five-star review on iTunes.
10:15 - 10:21
It's interesting to say that the first time we suggested this, we got loads. People are starting to see this maybe as we're trying to game the system.
10:21 - 10:26
Maybe we are, but you know, this is important. So please help us game the system.
10:29 - 12:38
4 3 2 1 2 3 2 1 2 1 on forever because then when we finally get there it will be such a big moment and the thing is i don't know what the cheeses are either this is a pure game you don't get clues on wordle
12:38 - 12:52
so you don't get clues on curdle the first guess ever was correct i was thinking well this is the genius of Rushden as a broadcaster he can see that this is going to take a nice maybe six episodes to
12:52 - 13:03
get right everyone will keep getting one there's going to be a real sense of progression of movement with us now we've been however you haven't you haven't listened to a lot of my
13:03 - 13:16
broadcasting work we once did me and barry once did uh the whole of euro i'm gonna say euro 2012 maybe 2016 by dice so we worked out how many games it's this is like how many games are in the euros
13:16 - 13:27
50 games i don't know yeah so we start or like 30 games we started that many weeks before the euros began and each week we did dice and each game we played and then it turned out the final
13:27 - 13:38
was like turkey v croatia so we did the whole the two-hour show we did an hour and a half build-up for turkey croatia by dice yeah anthems we got guests whatever but for some reason our show was
13:38 - 13:48
half hour shorter because there was some rugby league match playing so we said after the break the final and then adrian durham just took over in hull and there was a rugby league
13:48 - 14:02
we'll get to the end of girdle i promised you all right it's your day david it's your day to know my yesterday yes please ask me what i did yesterday uh what did you do yesterday david
14:02 - 14:16
i woke up somewhat unusually i am sleeping in the spare room okay is there trouble with helen copter is there trouble in helen copter towers or are you so annoyed that she has to
14:16 - 14:35
wake up at seven to book her spin class and she's doing uh exams at the moment right so with her uh furthering of her academic and professional career we are back to exams
14:35 - 14:48
uh and she's these this one is like a quite a rote learning based exam so she's just staying up till two or three in the morning doing it over and over and over yeah it finishes now it's fine
14:48 - 15:05
so i said luck uh i woke up in the spare room is what i'm saying okay but i wake up with her coming with a cup of coffee and an electrolyte orange drink she unfortunately wakes me at a very dank
15:05 - 15:20
time in my rem cycle is how i'm gonna put it okay so not only do i have no idea who she is but i have no idea who i am right why am i here what era and it's a sort of time bandits vibe to it just what
15:20 - 15:39
is this what is this drink what do i do with it i have no idea and i think she because she's really dressed because she's got up early to do more study she is expecting some of the classic chat from me but unfortunately i can't remember the
15:39 - 15:54
language either i'm a blank page basically how long does this last you need to get up and go to the loo brush your teeth you need to do something probably the coffee does help in that situation
15:54 - 16:10
but uh we leave her to her studies great yeah uh campbell style i've decided i'm going to get out of the house right and get on the bike okay straight up straight up to the phoenix park bike one through
16:10 - 16:24
18 but i'm saying you pick bike seven and ah great great question here and i've picked the one that i've been riding a lot over the winter with the slightly wider tires it's a old bianchi cyclocross
16:24 - 16:42
bike that i've put modern componentry um onto uh i i do have a something of a revelation on this cycle okay i've put in my headphones once i get to the park okay and it's so relentlessly shit
16:42 - 16:53
the news at the moment it is because trump had just done the state of the union address or whatever yeah and so they're talking about that and do you know the revelation is i actually
16:53 - 17:08
don't need to listen to this like i know what he said i'm in probably the most beautiful place in dublin let's just not yeah let's just take out these headphones i know i'm literally advertising
17:08 - 17:18
for not listening to podcasts now max yeah but you know the point is with you have to listen to our podcast but because you don't know what the denouement will be of anyone's day but you don't
17:18 - 17:32
need to listen to the trump one because you will find out when he just nukes ireland and you'll just explode okay so you you opted for silence i opted for nature i mean you are more
17:32 - 17:46
aware of your body when you're not you know enclosing yourself in with that and you know what i realized i'm too hot i'm taking my coat off and just cycling in my shirt and that's
17:46 - 17:58
interesting because that's the first time this year i've taken my coat off on the bike and while it is cold when you're in the shadows under the trees it's absolutely beautiful when you're in the direct so that's
17:58 - 18:15
so we then get the panic text message during this which is david what is the name of your edinburgh show which would be the title of your comedy work for the next year to 18 months and
18:15 - 18:31
is it is it um i'm having such a good time with max on a two twice a week is it called that i'm not gonna call that i know you don't have to be thinking about it now that's slightly
18:31 - 18:45
self-indulgent on my part the show i had a few ideas in my head a few possibilities but you need something like this which is david there's a there's a a noon deadline what's the show called
18:45 - 19:02
yeah so i had it down the two possibilities where well keyboard warrior was one because i know but i don't want it to think that it's about my online life okay then so we went for
19:02 - 19:20
highway to the david zone lovely which is i mean it's a reference to the theme from top gun sure but uh even if you don't know that that's what the reference is i enjoy a bad not a bad pun like
19:20 - 19:29
so it's highway to the danger zone is the real one david sounds a little bit like danger but it's just in the fact that it's just hanging there i love that and what is good is when we do
19:29 - 19:41
live shows when you're bored of writing tours and we can just go and do edinburgh uh we will be oiled up like maverick and goose from top gun in the volleyball we'll basically
19:41 - 19:53
basically you and i will play volleyball against the audience and we'll be oiled up with shades and there'll be a net and then they'll all play and we'll just have a that's what the live show will be which
19:53 - 20:09
of us is goose and which of us is don cruz who's dolph lundgren in this situation was it dolph lundgren no val kilmer who's val kilmer yeah are you thinking from previous guests no rory stewart
20:09 - 20:23
maybe yeah okay yeah okay another elite podcaster so yeah val kilmer is is rory stewart yeah i don't know any of the other i don't know who the other stuff i don't know anyone else in top gun i
20:23 - 20:33
apart from those okay fine yeah but yeah all the other people in the volleyball court are you know joe rogan's there you know james a caster and ed gamble and josh willick they're all you know
20:33 - 20:46
they're all there so we've named the show i mean there's a boring stuff that i won't go into where they're like send us the picture for the brochure and what they mean is send us the picture that
20:46 - 21:00
you've organized with a professional photographer maybe old michael kelly who uh is it can do that with the big table i can't just i haven't done it max so then i frantically start just looking
21:00 - 21:12
for selfies on my phone yeah do any of these look like a professionally taken headshot not really i've got my tongue out in a lot of them i'm giving the fingers i've got an issue
21:12 - 21:23
which is when i write a column for the guardian they still they use a picture that was taken for soccer and promo in 2009 and i have that's a hot picture
21:23 - 21:36
hot picture i don't i don't have any gray hair i yeah i don't have any children i look good i look awake i don't have this spot on the side of my nose i and i have email to say look this is not
21:36 - 21:49
like this is not a you know we we the guardian that pride itself in accuracy right and this is not an accurate this is not an accurate accurate portrayal of me anymore but like i just they just
21:49 - 21:58
say the the size of the photos you've seen this doesn't and i'm not going to organize a photo shoot like that like yeah i'm not going to do that so we're stuck with it it's difficult i
21:58 - 22:12
see i think that's what happens with you know americans a lot of the time where you keep using the old picture and then the drop off will be so severe yeah max you look great can i just say that
22:12 - 22:24
you know that i think you look great since you've sorted the foot thing out it's almost perfect i don't know i got on the tram yesterday and my neighbor mary said you look so tired and she's 80 i mean i'm not saying
22:24 - 22:44
did you say to her you look absolutely wrecked mary no to be fair she looks she's pretty sprightly i would say um so i uh continue the cycle call over to my dad i'll bring dad some yeah good stuff
22:44 - 22:59
lunch and help him with a few things that he needs done what did you bring him for lunch uh i brought a mortadella sandwich from the from the nice place around the corner do you want to play a game
22:59 - 23:13
that uh that my wife used to play is it guess the cheese is in the mortadella sandwich no no no it's uh it's it's called mortadella or mozzarella and she puts on like a cod italian voice and says am
23:13 - 23:28
i saying mozzarella or mortadella and she goes and then it's good game good game in a culturally game i don't know no i think it's a good game yeah definitely yeah there's another one you can
23:28 - 23:42
you can play uh pen or pin pen or pin i mean you put on a new zealand accent and you say oh pin have i said pin or pen anyway there are so many i had this with i knew two separate
23:42 - 23:53
new zealanders called fan one was called fan yeah and one was called finn oh that is a problem and it's really it's really difficult because yeah it's it's basically pan pin it's
23:53 - 24:08
that except they would both what i found amazing about it was to the tuned ear of the kiwi you were able to be like i want to see uh finn and i'd be like oh so is that fan or finn i'd be like
24:08 - 24:23
finn i said finn you're talking about finn have you seen i just can't do it you've seen that amazing clip on instagram of um some businessy podcast and the host says you know would you
24:23 - 24:34
if there's anything you could do again and this guy says uh i'd spend less time with i'm gonna sound south african so i'll apologize i'd spend less time with dickheads but he but the guy
24:34 - 24:42
understands him as i'd spend less time with the kids and he's like i can't believe anybody would say i'd spend less time with the kids and he's like oh not the kids no he goes oh they just
24:42 - 24:53
waste your time and he's like your kids it's like no no no dickheads anyway it's amazing it's an amazing clip okay so where are we i'm lost you're at your dad's house we
24:53 - 25:08
we're over with dad yeah he's never backed up his phone onto his laptop okay so he is amazed to see a thousand photos from the past just appear on because you know the way as you load them onto
25:08 - 25:18
the laptop each one kind of like in um they it just briefly appears on the screen well i'll tell you what i was trying to think of there what was the show that larry grayson used supermarket
25:18 - 25:29
sweep or one of those anyway they would appear on the screen he'd be like i remember that i remember that i remember that it was a bit like you know when you die and your life passes before
25:29 - 25:45
your eyes it turns out it's just a sequence of eye photo pictures uh we remove the moss off the top of his car that's a nice moment there because yeah satisfying he provides the initiative to do
25:45 - 26:01
it but then he can't he's a short man as we know my mother is six foot and my dad is five foot five into my very strange proportions tiny tiny legs yeah yeah yeah immensely long torso but uh the
26:01 - 26:16
long torso means that i can lean right across we get um the he's been parking under trees too much right and over the winter the roof has gone green so we get is it called a scotch pad which is just
26:16 - 26:29
a light scouring it works it's an incredible yeah it's one of those jobs where when you finish it you're like wow we've done that that the internet could not have done a better job than this well
26:29 - 26:41
done we need um our gutters done there's actually like a tree growing in one of them oh yeah i just can't get around to i don't have a ladder and b i feel like it's gonna there's someone's gonna
26:41 - 26:52
charge me too much so i'm gonna be offended by how much someone charges me but i'm not gonna do it until basically the gutter just winter comes and it'll fall off and i'll be like it's so easy to do
26:53 - 27:05
surely you can go up a ladder okay i'll tell you what i'll try and do it the day before i'm going to do what did you do yesterday and we can have yes okay the fear is in australia that uh what
27:05 - 27:27
do you call the lads the big squirrels not wombats the other ones that live in trees possums that they don't they come and live in roofs sometimes yeah i think we might disturb i think my uh do you want me to write your edinburgh show with you
27:27 - 27:46
so next up i need to help my brother with a self-tape i can't can you please stop laughing at your own joke that to the listeners i was moving on my day you've done so many really
27:46 - 28:04
good jokes while we've done this and i just go yeah very good but possibility and i've gone my brother needs help with a self-tape now a lot of people have never helped someone with this
28:04 - 28:18
self a self-tape is where it's where you film kind of before they call you in for an audition for a thing you record a version of it on your phone okay now if it's a scene with dialogue
28:18 - 28:35
you need you so you lock off your phone you lean it on things and then you get your brother to be the three other characters which to be honest is a much more demanding job because there's times where i am having conversations with myself
28:35 - 28:53
and you also don't want to see and steal here i'm not saying i'm better than a professional actor like my brother but i really go for it with these characters do you surreptitiously like put your own phone on the bookshelf and have made yourself a tape and so
28:53 - 29:10
when he gets to the gets on set you're playing those other three parts like steve martin always plays more than at least three people in every film eddie murphy yeah exactly that's that's exactly it i and at one point he does say you're too loud
29:10 - 29:23
okay so i think the problem would have been yeah just there's a man shouting off camera here that's put us off and does it did the role require shouting what do you know okay
29:23 - 29:36
it was a sort of kitchen sink drama with people coming and going through rooms i played a stroppy teen i played my brother's wife and i played uh someone else as well
29:36 - 29:47
well good luck we nailed it we did it got it probably did four takes takes longer than you think uh you need a white background okay that's one of the problems with it because
29:47 - 30:06
there's too many colors in this house so my brother in order to get a white background needs to sort of kneel down with the phone leaning on a chair and why can't casting directors possibly hire somebody like phil wang can now never be in any movie because
30:06 - 30:23
of the cook's blue wall like what possibly you know what if lawrence olivier delivers this amazing tape but he's got like a mustard wall are they so uptight they just can't see past the mustard i remember once you know the numerous rules maybe this isn't even the
30:23 - 30:33
case anymore in the digital age do you remember passport photos used to be so serious yeah like you you had to have the top of your head had to be visible and it had to be a white
30:33 - 30:45
background you couldn't in the old booths you could pull a curtain across or back i remember once being sent off no not this because uh the jacket i was wearing had are they called
30:45 - 30:59
epaulettes yeah yeah had them on it which made me look like a military man so you're not allowed to appear in your military fatigues we had to get ian a passport photo when he was about
30:59 - 31:11
a week old because we were coming back to the uk and your eyes have to be open and that is like it took fucking hours like hours it was agony and the queue at the post office honestly
31:11 - 31:28
you've never seen an angrier set of people than the post office at northcote plaza as this baby just wouldn't play ball in this tiny white bouncer anyway we got there eventually and now obviously he's three he looks nothing like he did as a baby
31:28 - 31:36
so they literally just wait until we could be taking any toddler around the world and they just go sure can you imagine they said it doesn't look like him and you'd be like oh my god have
31:36 - 31:45
you seen how much stuff we've got like just let us through like come on i do love the idea that you finally get one where he's got his eyes open and then you realize he's wearing an
31:45 - 32:07
auto van bismarck style world war one helmet sorry this baby shouldn't be in his military fatigue why did you put him in the biggles outfit but goodness sake uh so then we have a little interregnum where i've realized i've killed more plants i've been
32:07 - 32:22
trying to i looked at some youtubes about how to sustain crappy supermarket herbs oh yeah and it's generally it says replant them immediately into compost rich i want to be the sort of person
32:23 - 32:32
that has there's a house near me and the whole front hedge is rosemary bush yeah that's the person i want to be you know do you know what we had a massive rosemary bush in our garden we got rid of
32:32 - 32:48
it did you yeah why because it was just like we needed space like more important for our days is somewhere a toddler can run around than the on the occasion where one of us says i'm roasting a leg
32:48 - 32:59
of lamb do you have do you have a sprig of rosemary perchance no so i know what you mean i know what you mean yeah well interesting i hope to get rid of the
32:59 - 33:14
bush you threw a full cow into it and then lit the bush on fire leading to the most sumptuous feast of course you put four possums into it and you had rosemary possums delicious i'm now trying to
33:14 - 33:31
think of a possum based pun on gross give me five minutes um anyway it's uh it's dinner time uh-oh i made too much the day before so i reheat but i trick it up a bit then as well you've tricked up
33:31 - 33:44
things before so yes i have but no no no no this so i'm into spatchcocking at the moment okay if i see anything i just immediately spatchcock it that sounds like that does sound like something
33:44 - 34:00
a crypto bro would say you know how was your night last night oh i spatchcocked them we need to spatchcock the podcasting market that's what this podcast needs to do uh i'd spatchcocked and
34:00 - 34:16
then very simple uh you see this is a recipe that i didn't get from a box max with tiny ingredients yeah i know imagine that tonight we actually had from the box we had a chicken with broccoli and
34:16 - 34:27
like a risotto type thing and i was like david would be furious that we got because often there are a bit cleverer than we would choose and i was like david would kill us for this just chicken
34:27 - 34:37
it's just chicken and broccoli in a risotto like we've let ourselves down here anyway your one chicken in a box that's what it is yep did you just microwave it you just place the whole box
34:37 - 34:51
directly into the microwave and you're like wow we've really made a great dinner here haven't we delicious the uh yeah i trick it up i throw in some broccoli also and some and then i throw some
34:53 - 35:07
lardons and yeah just generally lovely stuff vibe it out now it goes down very well it's good brain food i think but then we need to keep her spirits up while she's in this period of learning so was
35:07 - 35:18
the exam today or the exam like has she had the exam the exam is today ah it's today not yesterday no it's not just today so okay right okay all right have you made her a dessert a viennetta
35:18 - 35:30
what have we got here yes so we missed pancake day so then i i'm like i'm gonna surprise her with this this will be great there's no flour okay okay but i
35:30 - 35:42
tell you a great thing you wouldn't know this because you just read recipes off cards but what you can do is there's always substitutions for things oh yeah there's always substitutions yeah
35:42 - 36:01
so uh it says porridge oats just really grind them down get them super super tiny and they will make a very healthy so do that uh what really de-healths it then is the stuff that i insist on putting into it
36:01 - 36:21
which is a kinder kind of bueno bar lovely uh folded over so it melts and i find in the freezer do you have an ice cream called an ice burger no which is a sort of a chocolatey sodden wafer on
36:21 - 36:27
each side and i'm not sure if that's the right word but i'm not sure if that's the right word i know the vanilla in the middle yeah i know what you're talking about i'm pretty sure it does exist
36:27 - 36:42
in britain and australia it's called an ice burger here so i i cut that into slivers and put it in as well so yeah it's fire and ice that's what this is we're heating an ice pop oh in a pan are you
36:42 - 36:53
joking me it's one of the most delicious things that anyone has ever tasted lovely yeah she is happy we have a little bit of a chat but
36:53 - 37:09
before she needs to go back up because it is it's the last uh night and so i return to the this room the sad basement where i record these podcasts and i decide to watch i think it's called the
37:09 - 37:23
greatest night in pop it's on netflix it's a documentary about we are the world okay the recording of it right with many of uh those all the stars of
37:23 - 37:38
the 80s can i guess i'm trying to can i have some guesses who's in it yes i mean it's it's shooting fish in the barrel van dross no no luther lionel richie yes lionel writes lionel and michael
37:38 - 37:53
jackson write the song paul young we know because he's already been in the band-aid one oh right okay does the give us your fucking money the yeah i know bob geldof made your one yeah so this was the american see that um
37:53 - 38:05
okay quincy jones and lionel decide to take their lead and they they write their own uh anthem yeah i mean i know the song i know the video but i just can't remember anyone who's in it
38:05 - 38:22
you got lionel yeah you've got mj you got people like huey lewis yeah okay yeah cindy lauper good and then if you if you're ever looking for a metaphor for fish out of water you've got bob dylan yeah so so bruce they get bruce
38:23 - 38:34
somehow lovely i think lionel might be friends with uh bruce yeah and when bruce i think opens the floodgates to a lot of other people then and you would wouldn't you do anything for bruce
38:34 - 38:46
springsteen yeah i would do it if if someone said bruce would is involved i would love you to be there yeah i would whatever that thing was i'm with you i would definitely do it even if it was
38:46 - 38:58
just you know a game of frisbee in the park or something like that uh bruce springsteen's going to be there you yeah yeah he does love it he's in the whatsapp group and he's the first to reply in you're like
38:58 - 39:23
okay suddenly everybody joins the boss is playing let's play ultimate frisbee in the park with bruce springsteen he can't get enough um the uh geldof comes out is actually in this briefly right delivers an amazing speech it's got you got diana ross you've got i can keep
39:23 - 39:37
naming names whoever you're thinking of they're there there's 47 waylon jennings walks out because stevie wonder uh is taking too long to rewrite the chorus of it okay and stevie wants to put a
39:37 - 39:52
bit in swahili into it and waylon jennings says good old boys don't sing in swahili and walks out so he is the one that they lose but kenny rogers stays kenny loggins stays loggins is there now
39:53 - 40:13
all right yeah loggins is there because my new show is called uh highway to the david zone highway to the david zone and he sings a line in we are the world is tina turner there she's tina turner is there now there we go we've got it the
40:13 - 40:33
rest of this podcast will be you guessing all 47 participants as what a prince as what did not make it as well stuck in traffic erasure brother beyond um roland rat yeah and stack a bow yes okay they
40:33 - 40:52
oh stack a bow yeah gonna move move move to the new temptation yeah here we go again what is your brain how do you not know so many things and yet stack a bow
40:53 - 41:06
stack a bow right yeah yeah just uh i can't help it now there to stay i'm gonna go and listen to stack a bow straight after this recording yeah um not right now listeners not right now stay with
41:06 - 41:22
this yeah um geldof in fairness has all of the pop stars of the world there and uh quincy says this was bob's idea or bob did the original one of these and and bob does a really good speech where
41:23 - 41:39
like he says i've just come back from ethiopia and uh he has a good line he says to all of these the richest musicians in the world it's difficult uh to conceive for you to conceive of nothing but
41:39 - 41:52
these people have nothing and but he says the the killer line he goes the price of a life uh this year is a seven inch disc with a hole in the middle
41:53 - 42:06
with this song playing on it so please think of that while you're recording this and uh maybe that will motivate you because it is whereas nowadays something like this could all be done remotely
42:06 - 42:22
yeah like look at us max we're not both talking into the same mic then you need everyone there yeah and also even the way they record it is if if huey lewis messes up you've got to go right back to the start to lionel richie
42:22 - 42:41
there comes a time so he's done there comes a time you'd hate to be on late going don't fuck it up don't fuck it up yeah exactly the tracks in surely they can just they do more than one take no from this yes you would imagine
42:41 - 42:52
you can probably do a little bit of that but from the way we're looking at it all of the biggest pop stars are all around in a circle at different mics and they don't even have enough mics such that
42:52 - 43:10
when uh diana ross has to step back so that the guy from foreigner or someone can lean in there anyway i found that i mean ultimately i know there there are many criticisms
43:10 - 43:29
of just throwing loads of money at this ambiguous thing called uh africa and whether the whole thing uh wasn't slightly patronizing to begin with but the documentary is absolutely fascinating because it's kind of more about the egos
43:29 - 43:44
of all of these people all being all being together that was it then i left i slid a good luck card under the helen copter's door oh that's too much really well not too no i mean i mean i'm
43:44 - 44:00
no it's not too much it's just lovely i meant like that's lovely is what i mean that's lovely okay fine yeah yeah yeah and uh and then went to sleep in the basement on my own and that was my yesterday it's a good day
44:00 - 44:15
it's a good day the focus of the day is on i hope the helen copter gets the exam i hope my brother gets the gig i hope the moss doesn't return to my dad's car
44:15 - 44:29
they are my hopes from the day no all in all i felt like a spring has sprung and you come across and i don't believe it's for show as a good person david a good brother a good son a good
44:29 - 44:45
