Podcast Production and Final Thoughts

There are millions of them. Some might say too many. I have one already. I don't have any because there are enough. Politics, businessiness, 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? yesterday? What did you do yesterday? That's it. All we're interested in is what the guest got up to yesterday, Nothing more. Day before yesterday, Max? No, 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'Dar Hervey. Welcome to What did You do yesterday Hello and welcome to Midwek Mayhem from the people that bring you What did you do yesterday? My name's Max Rush and alongside me, David O'doherty on this brand new, very similar journey. Yeah. There are two paths in the forest. Will you take the one you normally take or the very similar one that's just beside it about the similar one because this is the first one that if you've signed up You will also get tomorr yesterday today, but you'll also get Davids yesterday. And you'll get the merch and the live streams and the chance to be a yesterdayer yourself, you are in it for life. No parole. yesterdaypod. com No, no, no, no, no, no d. comot So that just f rolls off the tongue, doesnn't it? Why't do d. comot That would really Everyone knows that one. Yesterday. supportingcast. fm Everybody sign up please. We would appreciate it. What else do we doing there that? Yeah, The lottery, the live streams, ad free tea towel. Tea towel, early release. Yeah, there we go. Well the early release in this podcast sounds like it could be for the bath and feels like you want to subscribe for an early release. I mean for me, the promise is really of an episode where we can I mean, not that when we record these, I'm thinking Everyone's going to be listening to this, but we can really nerd it up in those. Oh yeah. I mean, this is coming from someone who's been playing a cheese game for two years that we can really do weird stuff that we're into in the other one. But I the exciting news for me is Marsbar and David have sanctioned a version of Think of a thing which we've got There's too many guys whichich will go in the bonus. I'm very excited about that. I just have to think of a thing before we record that episode. Now, David It's a while since we did the David Baddill episode but that's the last one that came out and people let's face it, it was an absolute All timer Jema says, I love this episode. I listened while running this morning, the image of David Badil's head poking at the top of a barrel in his garden had me laughing so much. I had to stop because I couldn't breathe properly. Kyle says, I don't know if anything on this earth could prepare you for the barrel discussion. And I love this.w Andrew actually put a bit of transcripts down the OD David Badil How do you get out of the box? Good question. And Andrew writes, maybe my favourite Max and DOD exchange letess in if a like It was also the Hmmock extensive Hammock discussion pre barrel point where yes, he raised the fact that maybe we talked about the hammock too much I think we've covered hammocks. I'm interested to you, the listeners, hasas anyone got any hamock anecdotes? Was anyone listening thinking they haven't really you know covered the essential hammock news that I say. I can't believe they've done twenty five minutes on hammocks and they missed the most important part Pedrra says, I'm Maltese. And when I lived in Malta, my neighbor was the Achbishop of Malta. I love this. whatever I'm just happy. I used to on occasion see his excellency on his balcony in his underwear as he watched the sunrise Oh this was if David Badil's house had in fact been in Stain. S square in the Vatican City and he had come out in the morning. Yes, I remember now in his uies to see the pope standing next door. Wow His exxcellency greeting the Maltese Dawn. Would the Archbishop of Malta be in pants but have the big hat on Great question. I'm imagining their little red sort of suede pants. You know the way the Pope has those little shoes Oh yeah, they're leather. He's in these's in red suede pants. The Archbishop of Malta wears red suede whife frants his big triangle hat on. If this was your football show now to be could someone get me a picture of the Arbishop of Waltter's pants and within ten minutes, someone from the laundtte around the corner would have Colonel Gadae says I've just had a text from my wife who said David Vadil got tennis elbow from giving blood. I thought I was going insane, I feel seen because he also got tennis elbow from a image of this guy with a needle in David's elbow and just whanging on about Arsenals's form from set pieces for hours and hours. All the blood is drained out of David Vadil. A massive needle. just pull out all the blood Yeah, D. He's just a little bit too polite to say, couldould you take the needle out, please Also that episode, it's one of my favorite things about this podcast because David BDle clearly had much more interesting tales. to tell us such as relinquishing his U. S. citizenship The embassy in Bulgaria, I think where it was, but instead we just wanted to hear about him in a barrel more. Forget that Dances. Dim Max and DOD. I was just listening to a pod with David Badil. I've always been a fan of his way back to the cultural phenomenon that was Newman and Badil. However this morning, while walking through the park on my usual constitutional On the outside to pass us by, I would have seemed calm, serene, at one with nature. and on the inside I'm screaming, Answer the fucking question, Badil. What time did you get out of bed yesterday? Is David Vadil the first to completely evade the question? Maybe you both should be more packsmen after all. Also asking if your listeners are interested in Nitty gritty. I mean, has he even listened to the pub before? Nitty gritty is our bread and butter. in it for life. Everything is entertainment all about the Nitty gritty. Yeah, it is a failure of mine, I guess to to have not really pushed down journalistically on when he woke up. I know I'm sorry about that. We bash against the limitations of having, you know listeners, I shut my eyes there for a second and I heard a sound which I thought was Max blowing snot out through his nose like a foiceballer mid game. was putting a blind down. He was sh As this The podcast becomes even more of a phenomenon And we have requests from bigger people to go on it. You come to a sort of The legendary appearance of De Niro on off menu type situation where he clearly has no idea what he's going on, but everyone's told him me a good thing to go on it. So they say, what's your favorite food in New York? And he says, whatever's good, whatever's good. It's such a brilliant moment where you can imagine for James and E, they're just like heart sinking, but it is Robert De Niro. So you're just like, u, the thing is, if he came on this I'd pin him down. you know, I'm not letting him get away with it going I don't know. I can't remember yesterday. I'm like, this is the format, Robert. You say that. I'd be tough with the Nero. Elton ran a merry dance around us. Come on. We did our best. I don't think he did. I think I really stuck him to task, Elton I think he's still thking about an nowgo. that's the toughest interview. The toughest but most respectful interview I've ever had here is a lovely email from Haley on the Island of White. Dear whole of the What D did you You do crew? I've been a listener from the start. I first heard Max on parenting Hell, and I absolutely loved him. Thankks so much. as far as someone in red it goes, Hi Max, this is from you. He sounded like such a normal guy And when he mentioned he was going to be on a podcast with DOD, I figured I'd have to listen. Here I am two years later, definitely in it for life. No parole. I added that bit in. I love hearing about how mundane some celebrities are. I enjoy all the talk about actual shit, how Max is coping on five hours of broken sleep and David is just having a wonderful life with his eighteen bikes and the helicopter. Anyway, the reason I've emailed in is because my husband is great at It's almost like a superpower, albeit a crap one. I asked him for alternative names for the soctopus, and he fired back these suggestions within a minute Listeners, Dctopus is the item that I was looking for that hangs multiple pieces of small laundry in the placement in that encporter and now we're using an overhang on the outdoors, so we therefore can't just hang stuff on conventional washing lines or as we did in the old place on one of those hoisty hoists like you're a sailor on a ship. Yeah. And now we've got merch if we went straight into this imag. Yeah, absolutely clean up. Anyway, within a minute, he came up with Rhnoceros, A Hang God, I will critique each. onlynly problem with the didoceros is I'm imagining one single you know, it's a huge thing that takes up most of the garden with a uni horn coming off the front of it with just one sock at the end of us. But how does it dry that sock? Yeah Aanga hang Wow, that's much better because and I'm seeing it gripping. One arm gripping and then one arm and then stuff hanging from all of the other babies grips from the tail and then you can get four socks. Yeah. And if you put one on the head, five. Well also, some of those small sort of proboscis monkeys have willies as well So you do quite a lot of monkeys have Willies. Half of them approximately half of them have Willies. And so you could hang something else from that bad too. That's true. That is true Jelly Swish Oh jelly swwish. Yeah, jellyfish swish. What's swwish? You don't hang things. That's Swish. Okay, rejected Butter dry Oh like a butterfly Oh butterfly, I see. Okay. This guy is a machine. Haley, this guy. Yeah, the drying mantis That's useful because it's a spider And therefore It's got six legs. Is a praying mantis a spider Oh no, it's not. A praying mant is called a praying because it looks like it's kneeling in pray. It's sort of like a giant grasshopper, isn't it? H It' still good. I still like it. Hang toope Now we're running out now. and washing lion. Oh the Whing lion is really good. Yeah, done well. The Isle of White. Unbelievable. My main memory of it, of course, is getting lost on the way to the stage, opening the door and there being a swimming pool in front of me with children me holding the keyboard and children having a swimming class. Clare Eve writes, dear dear dear Jic Man three I felt compelled to write in following the Phil Ellis episode and the unforgettable discussion about moens being repurposed Several weeks later, the conversation had apparently lodged itself far deeper in my subconscious than I realized. One morning One morning I woke up to find my husband looking at me with a mixture of concern, confusion, what I can only describe as disappointment. What on earth were you dreaming about? he asked. Still half asleep, I had absolutely no idea what he meant. According to him, moments earlier, I'd been mumbling in my sleep pressed for details, he informed me that my exact words had been No, not the Min. I have no recollection whatsoever of this dream none. I can only assume that somewhere in the darkest recesses of my sleeping mind, a tiny Scandinavian troll was facing a fate I simply could not allow Thank you for permanently altering my subconscious. My husband now believes I spend my nights defending Muminens from unspeakable indignities. Please pass my apologies to Mumin Mamma, Mum and Papa, and the wider Mumin community. Of course this only adds to the long list that proves that what did you do yesterday is the center of the universe, and despite my sleep induced distress, I am still in it for life. Claire Thank you, Claire. Poor not the moan. to me that implies there's a line of lovable characters that are, you know, in turn awaiting their fate. Yeah Claire is reacting to each you know, like in some way the Smurf is better, I guess because there'sar. Well she said a whole lot of things he said, but finally she's like Thank you, that's Cla' stre in Melbourne. Andge Posta Coglu, he is hoping. Hi, Max Mars Barr and DOD. New be listen here I went to a good Friday live podcast in Melbourne, expecting a comedy gig. was very confused sitting in the third row. Long time fan of DOD though. I'd seen his show the night before. I had no idea who Max was. But after binging a few episodes, you now feel like an old friend whose dulcet tones are craved daily by my ears. Anyway I'm currently on holiday in Milan and saw a smooth nose train today. My immediate thought was not, that's a nice train, but rather, that would fit out the butt nicely. a sentence I would previously considered medically and socially alarming. I've now accepted that my internal monologue is partially narrated by this podcast. Can't wait to see a turtle next. Ke up the great work in it for lifeife and in Melbourne. Thank you, Anange Okay what was the turtle? Well, the turtle that comes to mind is Stevie's turtle, what Stevie's turtle with the vibrator. Oh my's a terrible version of Kluto. Stevie's turtle with the vibrator in the conservatory Yeah, G. Oh, that would be good. what did you do yesterday Kludo where the murder weapons are, you know, the octopus, the vibrator. Yeah the bath Godot a moment Boomid This schuma with the moment. S David Squire's guest, Christian in Derby says, was the father of the Oxford fan Desmond Morris. He died recently and in nineteen seventy eight, he was elected vice chairman of Oxford United Football Club. He lived with his son and family in Ireland. whileile a director of the club, he designed its ox headad badge based on a Minoan style bull's head, which remains in use to this day. What hang on. Is this Desmond Morris the groundbreaking social Was he a sociologist? Yes. Also famous for having a com overver, I presume. Did he have a com over? This could be a good guess The David Squires quiz, to which I sort of have kind of forgten who we're searching for But it's someone in Ireland whose dad was an Oxford. it's amazing. Jesm and Morris also most famous because our school library had a of Man Watching, which was one of his groundbreaking anthropologically sociological books it had a picture of a nude mum and dad in it Yeah, you would not believe the amount of thumbs that had thumbed to that page in an all boys school. One of the previous owners of my Trickleore French book had rubbed out the blouse that Evette was wearing and drawn some incredible boobs. So when I turned the page, I could not stop laughing that I got sent out of class want to show what had happened to my tricky little book. That event, it was a moment of awakening for me Producer Will, Was it Desmond Morris The answer is correct Desbin Morris It's amazing. because a lot of the correspondence about this from squires has been like give up lads. There's no point no one is ever going to get us. But holy cow. You know I always feel a bit sadness when iz ends Yeah. The journey of the quiz is so wonderful and also so painful. But that is that's great news. because I think Marsbell said we'd never ever get No ever ever get it. And there we are. I do feel bad that because I presume this wasn't going to be right. So I just mentioned the thing about the only nudes in the school library And now that is forever the legacy of Desmond Pur of this bug go. Don't worry, they're still the cucumbers at the Peta Monte. Jill says are yesterday's men, in our hearts today and forever. Now to business. I would like to submit actor Vince Colossimo That' my guess for the Peda Mon's Mystery person. Who's he? I don't know. Okay without giving it away. The relevant experience on my CV is working at the West Garth Cinema, Ohh my local cinema for many years back in the day where he was a regular. And now my close proximity to the other Peda Mon' on Bell Street. Pedes is definitely showbiz in it for life, Jill It's not correct. Although interesting, my friend, Dave Colossomo is also a Colosomo, but I don't know if he's related to Vince. That is not the person that was giving him lifts in the late eighties, early nineties. So that quiz is still alive It's always good to do three quizzes in a row, which comes first they're just in all countries and then cheese at the end. exact right? Che'ese at the end. No wait. Because the end needs to bleed seamlessly into the other yesterday. Oh God. Just do cheese now. and I'm not saying we're killing the reductx of normal countries. What you could do is you could do the yesterday, then do the cheese and then go, oh what did you do yesterday you doing that doesn't work It seemed nicer that you would tell us about your yesterday and then you would go and then I went to sleep. Do you know what I'm interested in, David? What did you do yesterday as opposed to Joe what I'm interested in What was the fifthese? This is the Odi Sherid family. I would tell you what, what we'll do is we'll do normal countries and cheese right now. we'll never do five quizzes in aoa This is so many quizzes. Okay, they're just normal countries readus. Okay I am one and only country could I be? I am the one and only. Where in the world could our listeners be Previous guesss, Norther Mariana S Islands L Su, Malawi Suran, South Sudan, Sa Tao and Princeci Pal Lchste, Montenegro correct, Guyana K Coracao Andora. Joe says, Hi Max, DOD and producers Michael and Or Will. Love the show, fan of all your podcasts. Can't really think of anything funny to write. assume this may slip through to the keeper. but I've got a guess for their just normal Countries version two or whatever this quiz is called Yeah.iven last week'sess of Cacao had listons. It got me thinking about my current over thirty five s teammate at Williamstown SC, who played a few internationals for a tiny Caribbean nation. So my guess is Monserat. Wow. Keep up the great work, looking forward to the World Cup pods, everythingthing is showbiz in it for L life and all that. Joe Will is Monsorat a normal country? ool, how many listens in Monserat? Seven seeven W! Enormous. We could fill a minibus, live show in Areno pass. Curacau is the only normal country to be in the World Cup, I would imagine But it's not a normal country because it had two distance. Oh yeah it did. Okay, fine, fine, fine. Yeah. We do the fastest cheese ever so we can get to the yesterday, Max, come on Five This is J This is from Libby, Hi DOD Max and Mars. Thanks for keeping me entertained in the nights while feeding my baby. though she wasn't best pleased about how much I wobbled my boobs with Lols at the Brett Mackenzie episode. Anyway, how Benny Hill? Anyway, two things. Please can I see if Charuse is on the cheeseboard Three Bing, bing, bing Chatreuse. Khilly, Bing, Bing, Bink, casual blue, Baby mink cheese strings. Baby mink, that's it. All the quizz is done. Yeah. Thank you everybody for sticking with the quizzes. Max, I, however, have one question for you What did you do yesterday Oh dear I understand that this podcast is mainly for the listeners. Yeah I know that Jamie listens to this podcast. Yeah. And I am in Los Angeles. Yeah, we haven't covered working on the World Cup. This is fascinating. This is gonna be a totally different yesterday to normal. It is, it is. but I know that Jamie will hear this. Yeah. And I know that she is at home with two children. Yeah One or both of them have hand foot and mas It's an absolutely disaster. It's not like foot and mouth where you have to round up all the children in the boa and callull over my badgers. But it is bad and it means they don't sleep. And the timing from Ian and Willie, I would say, is imperfect. Could have got this while I was in town, even while Jamie was away. It would have been better. So by the time Jamie listens to this, should be next week, I hope everything is okay. And I love you dearly, but I can't lie about my yesterday I got lie about my y. I woke up and hired a convertible with Don Henley from the Eagles. we set off to visit the Bys of Summer. My day is incredibly boring, but like I wasn't at home. This is the point I'm making. I know Jie knows I wasn't home. It's six twenty two AM. I wake up I lie in bed. try and get back to sleep. I'm over jet lag, but the moment my weekend radio shows are two till five AM. I've managed to make them worse hs. So two till five so you've slept for No, because this was Monday and so my radio shows are Friday night into Saturday, Saturday, into Sunday I thoughtort go to bed at nine, get up at Hubbus one, do two till five. Oh wow. But you know, I can go to bed because there's no children here. So I'm a bit groggy still. I do the worirdle. I post a reel to Instagram. I'm currently living with Barry Gndenning. He's in the apartment next door. It's sort of odd couple vibes of the videos. I'm pretty consistent in mood, whereas Barry can be grumpy or happy. The perfect timee to film him is where he's grumpy enough that he's grump in the video, but not so grumpy. he tells me to leave now uncertain terms and never wants to speak to me again. So I've been in consuming some of your content because one or other of the two of you have been posting it And I do enjoy like I bet I'm not alone here among the listeners in thinking the most annoying thing you can have in a housemaid is someone who is always temperamentally on the same level. You know what I mean? Wh's just like, oh well, shall we go for a little walk or whatever? Shall we do a dance? Barry, do you want to learn a TikTok dance? you know this s of thing I'm not saying I despair for the relationship because there is another four weeks of the World Cup to go, but I did see him post about how annoyingly loud you are at eating apples. Yeah ye ye. which I think is harsh. Although producer Joel also sort of backed him up that I am a loud apple eater. But I think if that's as bad as it is As I pointed out to Barry, like he He'll happily just belch a four point five on the Richor scale and not even say, sorry about that or pardon me. And I would say that is worse than eating an apple. I would say we're not designed to live together.. We are living together In previous video, he had caught me in the gym lifting those tiny weights to look like weights for hamsters. But all the comments were that he had a massive bgey up his nose. So the video that I'm posting is just checking up his nose to see if he has a tant by. It's good stuff. Yeah, I'd be interesting one of our scientist listeners Is it possible that some people eat apples louder than others? As in, does your mouth effectively act like in a pipe organ as a huge echo chamber? I see. mouth like the Royal Albert Hll. Yeah with acoustics. With an echo. So it's like h and then you hear like h h h h as it bounces around your Your palate. Anyway, I'm up, I go and get a coffee. It's three AM in Melbourne. Willie Rushton has hand foot and mouth. He's not sleeping. The blisters are bursting. Is that good or bad? I don't know. Jamie isn't sleeping. I can't help. This sounds like Hamnt except in that film. Shakespeare was in London having writing these very successful plays, Whereas you're doing a podcast in LA So I'm sitting in a cafe, I'm getting those messages and then the bosses are happy because Guardian Football weeekly Daily has moved above the rest is politics in the charts, right? So I try and think of a way to post this, but I can't do that without looking like a twap so that I don't post. I just let it hang there. The last two days, I haven't really been anywhere, so I go for a walk I ring my agent N of boring admin reasons. Yeah It's nine AM. It's Spain versus Cape Verdict So that's where the football begins. So hang on, I need some basics here. I'm imagining you're in a service department on the side of a freeway because this is LA. We're on Sunset Boulevard. You're not. Are you really? Yeah, yeah, yeah. So what's that really famous hotel? It's like opposite us. The Viper room is close It's West Hollywood. I mean, I know nothing about this place and I know the walk to the studio and you know that's about and the cafe over the road.ike I haven't really been anywhere because LA is enormous and I've always got to get back for the game, which is an hour after the other oness finished. So this is not a complaint. I'm having a nice time off course. Yeah. So Spain Cape Bird it's nine AM I watched the first half in my room with a yogghurt banana and some excellent trrader Joe's granola. and that's the last banana. But that's okay because I think Barry's not really eating the bananas. He doesn't mind eating bananas. I'm a quiet banana eater. this full student vibes. Are you writing your name on things? And you've got a shharpie and you've written Max on a banana? No, it's very communal actually. So there's us Proucer Joel, there's the social media producers Rory and Matt or the video editor and social media producers. So we're sort of on a rotation of who's going to cook the big dinner We'll get ont to who cooked dinner last night. I'm imagining a huge box. I'magining the biggest box you've ever seen when it's max a coffin. For the second half, I go and watch it on the treadmill. I walk uphill fast up the treadmill and watch the second half of Spain Verdy and it's a draw.'s really great result. I messaged both our babysitters to see if they could just move in and be opz. three in the morning in Melbourne, but I'm just trying to think what can I do So Ireland didn't qualify for the World Cup. We nearly did, but there is one born and bred Irish guy in the World Cup. And he I am in Dublin eight right now just across the canal is Krumlin where Pico Lopez lives And he is at the age of thirty two. I think he got an email from the manager of What happen? He got a message on LinkedIn in Portuguese saying, can you come and join Cope Birdie? And he ignored it because he thought he didn't understand it or if it was a joke. And then they replied like a year later in English and he went, oh yeah. And there he is marshallaling this defense in a massive stadium, I think in Atlanta having the game of his life against Made at the World Cup. It's unbelievable. likeike it's such an amazing story. The sports shops up the street in the front window of it is the Brazil kit, you know, the Argentina kit, the France kit and the Cape Vd k as the four kits that the people of Ireland may be interested in buying? So Sid Low, Spanish football correspondent has been at the game. And so I've messaged him to say, canan he just do like five minutes to say, Sid was at the game? How was it? He's writing his match report. I don't even have blue ticks. So I can't really go anyere because if he says now, I've got to come back and record it. So I go over the road and get a Cotado And those have improved in the last few days because I've got them to make them shorter and shorterren talkking They're sort of getting on board now. I get prodroucer Joel and I Americano. Anyway, we wait for Sid, nothing from Sid. It's Belgium for Egypt. I'm back in the gym. I'm gonna lift tiny weights for the first half of Belgium. If you ever need, you know that I can do a variety of accents. Yeah. you ever need me to pretend to have been from a specific place. That would be really good. A a specific match I could be Belgiian, Nov. Okay, let's go to our Belgian correspondent, David van der Dohherty was a game of two halves. It's definitely our Italian correspondent. got The first half. Yeah. all I know aboutelg, the Belgian accent is that the Frenchies laugh at their accents. So it's not just the French accent. Okay I was trying to do something a little bit weird It intntroduction of Lukaku in the second half that opened the game like an oyster. That's pretty good. Thank you Okay, so I watched the first hal. those tiny weights, Then I go and get my salt, oil and pepper from Matt's room because I'm making eggs and avocado on toasts. I want salt pepperol and he's used them to make a chicken kai, which we' eat later. We're still waiting for Sid. he's really ghosting me, so I can't go anywhere, but it's okay. Egypt to playing quite well against Belium I get blue ticks from Sid. It's exciting. Barry returns with a big shop. He's making a chili for tomorrow night whichich is good because we have three very ripe avocados so I can make a guacamole. That's today. I film him cutting up a chili. he doesn't like it. He's cutting the chili skin side up and it looks like the knife might slip. And when I say, do you want some advice? he says m your own business. and he doesn't like it And then I say, Shall I get the big pan? And he says, mind your own business. And then he can't find the big pan. So a minute later, he has to come in saying, Where's the big pan? I'm Ver happy about that. Shit. This is a lot though for a week one of a five and a half week tournament. Where's this going? Yeah. I have a quick shower. I get on Faceetime with Jamie and Ian and Willie Sid two Blue ticks. He wants to record a thing so I have to hang up on the family, which is good. I tellid for five minutes. He's had a good time. I eat an apple and Barry films it He accuses me of eating it more quietly than I normally eat en now I chat to the family again. Jamie is tired and says when I get back, we can get divorced. So that's And you say, sorry, Jamie, let me just cut across you there. I have to talk to Lars Sitson, who is at Ecuadoria against Bolivia. What's this?' Saudi Arabia versus Uruguay. I'm watching this prod of Jelsman. I've got some porn. half time, I need to go and re record some lines for secret project I'm involved with Cambridge United, but by now by the time this goes out maybe they'll have released the kits. But anyway, wow, hopefully that's not a massive spoiler. You know Cambridge's great rivals are Oxford, of course. Well. And the Oxford logo was designed by Desmond Tom Rice, is that right? Yeah, basically, ourrivals are actually Peterbrook But I'd be interested to learn that. I didn't know that about Desmond Morris Now I get an email saying I need to update my payment card for my PayPal, but I can't log into my PayPal because when I was on a purge of Google Docs, I deleted the one which was all my passwords. So I say forgot password. it emails me a code. so I type in the code. then it says, can you scan your passport It won't, for some reason, the lighting's not right to scan. I have to come upstairs to get my passport and scan that. And then it says, we'll text you, but that's on my British phone, which doesn't have any charge. So I give up. I've spent twenty minutes trying to update my PayPal card and I can't do it. But I don't know what comes out of PayPal, but something will come out of PayPal, which now no longer come out of Payal and that's I had a curious one of those recently. I was dating my social services card in Ireland and you could do it over an app and it was like Go up to your passport with the phone. Yeah. just sort of hold it against the top of the passport. Yeah. What is that? It some sort of vies going through your phone? It's a passport vibe. So I did that and they were fine with it, but they wouldn't let me have the picture of my passport. It was very upsetting. It's the second half of Saudi Arabia, Uruguay L, I won't give full match reports because you can listen to the episode of the Guardian Fotall Weekly Daily that we recorded last night, which will have all the reports of these games. Or you could cross live to Davidity from Uruguayan State Tlevision S point this is going to get culturally inappropriate isn't? It's full time in this game. I haven't been outside all day, so I go for a walk up hill. So like opposite us you can go into the Hollywood Hills. I'm just trying to find Rob Lowe's house. That's you know, like something like that. anyyway there's some big old houses in there. so I'm peering in for famous people, but I don't see any. I've got my headphones in and I'm listening to nineties classics, obviously. Max, I've just worked something out. If you keep walking in them there Hollywood Hills Oh yeah with Barry or someone else. You could take photo of yourself If you find the Hollywood sign That W D the Y And then the D and the Y. Oh yeah. what did you do yesterday sign that overlooks the city? If you're really close to them, it just looks like you're next to a big white bl because it's quite hard to frame up, you know, they're really big. It's a good idea. I'll see if we can make it happen. There's very loud music So I turn my headphones off and someone is their garage door is open and they're listening to thrash metal Tpless and cycling shorts, playing sort of on a what bike, exercising furiously It feels quite LA to me. Slash from Guns and Roses. Slash from Guns and Roses, bigig hair top hat. Jamie calls, which is bad because I'm outside in the sun, so she can see it' sunny it's four degrees fuck She needs to do her worldld cuut predictions because these popular doinguring tournaments, We world she is so much better than me It's just ridiculous. To the listeners, you gott to check this out. It's on Max's Instagram and the wonderful Jamie who is holding his life together, somehow finds time in her skedch So Max just reads out the names. She's not based on anything else apart from just the words that you say, who are the two teams who are playing and she comes up with a really accur instantaneous guess as to what the score would be. And she gets quite a lot of them right. She does. although for Australia turkey, she said it would be a low scoring game three all and Australia would win on penalties. Anyway, she's put some shaving foam in a bucket to distract the kids. So she's like, I've got one minute to do this and she keeps leaning out of shot going stop it. Anyway, so she does that, prodroucer Matt has made a great chicken karai. Really, really good. to the point where Barry is slightly nervous about his chili for today, which he does not think is at the same level And between you and me, I've looked at it and it does look a bit school dinnery, but like I can't give him advice. Chicken Kari So it's Korean it's our curry, It's a tomato based curry. but it's absolutely delicious. And it's got like fresh strips of ginger and fresh coriander on the top of it. Jamie's eating bread for dinner, becausecause she's got of time. I'm sorry again, I'm sorry I donead What's this? It's Iran versus New Zaland. Ionest Obviously watching football matches is not hard, but like four in a day is just like your sort of brain has melted. So you just can't remember who did what I've got a script in front of but I still can't remember who they are, what they are. Yeah. Anyway, it's a good game. Once again, if you want to report on that Gardlian Football weekly. it finishes at eight PM our time, so we walk up to the studio, takes ten minutes to get to the podcast studio. So me and Barry in the studio, Barney Ronney's in Dallas, Danbardell's in Birmingam. so he's been all night watching these But we want to get a vibe of what it's like watching from the UK. In the intro, the guy from New Zealand who scores two goals is called Elijah Just. But he plays alongside Chris Wood. So for a long time in chat we're saying it's interesting that Elijah Wood is playing up frront for New Zealand. But that then ends up in my intro for the podcast saying two goals for Elijah Wood. And then later in the episode, somebody goes Did you say Eliizjah Wood? and then we all laugh about it? And then I can't go back and rerecord it because I believe in honesty. So currently the top football podcast at the World Cup anywhayere, I am announcing that Elijaha Wood has scored two golals in New Zealand at the start of the game. And then someone says, was that the hobbit? and we all agree. And now we've got lots of comments saying it's not the hobby, it's Frodo ed Yeah, this would never happen on the rest' politics. This would be like if Rory Sirt kept calling him Tony Blair Witch and they just left it for the whole thing. That guy' an idiot Yeah. Eactly. Anyway. So we do the pod M the producers have to like pick up all the stuff because they kind of dress the set and they have to come back and edit the thing poor guysy so they're up till like half one or something Wow, they're doing an amazing job because they, you know, Marsbar turns this around in two weeks. They turn it around in like an hour. We walk home, Barry goes to the pub, I go home. questuestion there no. Yeah. I wouldn't associate LA with Okay, bar. He goes to a bar is a bar. Sort of boulevard of Broken Dreams type ones. Do you think where he's like bartender, throw another scotch on the rocks? Yeah Yeah yeah. The two nearest ones to us are quite sports bar. They're quite loud and theyre quite like nice happy person at the door saying, How can I help you? Yeah But Barry does like sitting at the bar, but anyway he goes off for a pint. I go home. I'm not that tired. So then I clean the kitchen. We didn't know there was a dustpan and brush under the sink. so I get that out and I clean the floor. I sweep the floor then clean the floor Can the hub I put the bins down the trash, which is really fun. There's a trash chute. So like I like putting the bins down the trash chute. Do you think if there is a Drug bust on the flat I think you would be able to exit through that It would be a risk to get down there. I think my shoulders might be too wide H I think I might get stuck in the choute. Then you've got dilemma, right? Because the recycling is clearly not as grim. Oh yeah. but there is a danger of like glass bottles hitting on the head when you're stuck in the shoute Whereas if you go down the rubbish chute, you're only going to get petted with like soft waste, you know, but it's going to be a lot of binge juice. I don't know what's worst place to be stuck When I'm in LA I have my convertible park directly under it. I see like Penfold and Danger Mouse. No more like just cool LA David. And so Huie Lewis or someone phones me up and says, there's good surf in Santa Monica today. Oh yeah. I just say I'm on my way. then I've also got board shorts in the shoe too. So I wallace and gromet them on as I slide down into the convertible and head out on the freeway. That's just I mean, we're different guys. I suppose I am living in LA life in LA, but mainly I'm just going, oh, it's Surinan versus by the way watch this one. I have a football question for you. So yesday Iran, Trump has sort of belatedly and only really half let Iran be in the the thing in in the World Cup in that they have to be based in Mexico and they have to fly in and out for the matches. But it did seem like Among the people when the Iranian flag was unveiled, everyone was like, yeah, Iran, cool. Thankks for coming. Is that the vibe This is complex So in Mexico, like the Tiuanans have like adopted Iran The Iranian diaspora in LA. it's the biggest population of Iranians outside of Iran is LA. W booed the national anthem because they don't like the Iranian state. But in seventy nine, I think they all left off the revolution and they all here. Yeah. But they cheered on the players. And there is certainly one Iranian player who's not been picked because he's criticized the regime. So there is some Iranians who do not support the team because they see them as a representation of the Iranian state.. And at the same time, you have the, you know, if you're hosting a World Cup you shouldn't go to war with one of the countries famously. It's a VIFA directive. and also, you know, like there's been lots of problems with their visas and other people's visas as well. It's no one is a monolith. And so some Iranian fans here are supporting all of it and some hate the regime. and most hate the regime, I'd say, but like the team and some hate both of them And some like some of the players, not some of the players. So it' slightly complex, but they were very much cheering the team when they were playing But they couldn't stop Elijah Wood popping in despite his diminutive frame popping in him, scoring he's got low center of gravity. One ring to find him. Exactly what they say He's just th my precious. It's good that this podcast's favorite Iranian armored Jili didn't get the coaching gig and then advised them all to drink that tea on the morning of the batch such that at any given time there's only three players on the pitch because everyone else is shittding their pants At tenen o'clock, I get into bed, I do the squaredal and I go to sleep David, what did you do yesterday?
