What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott

Such a busy week I had to crank out another episode. I try to return to more UK based issues, with Labour claiming the 'world's changed' and Reform having their first lover's tiff with Nigel & Rupert. In Donald world I ask whether his just really likes Putin and whether JD Vance should think before opening his mouth. CATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No Bloke Without Fire’.

*this was recorded BEFORE Trump paused military aid, if you're wondering why we don't mention it*This week Pierre Novellie joins me to ask if the Oval Office bust-up is a 'I remember where I was when' moment. We discuss the micro-fibres of the exchange and wonder if it's only natural that the guy defending his country might be a little defensive. Then we discuss whether this is Keir Starmer's moment and if so, can he only do it away from home. In the Patreon only section we react to the news young women now earn considerably more than young men - do we need DEI for young blokes?!?!Watch my STAND-UP SPECIAL 'Basic Bloke' on ITVX:  https://www.itv.com/watch/geoff-norcott:-basic-bloke/10a6363a0001B/10a6363a0001Order the PAPERBACK EDITION of my book: https://www.amazon.co.uk/British-Bloke-Decoded-Everything-explained/dp/1800961308/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=JOIN the Podcast Patreon and receive each episode early, AD-FREE & with bonus content https://www.patreon.com/geoffnorcott?fan_landing=true Join my MAILING LIST for priority Tour booking & special offers https://signup.ymlp.com/xgyueuwbgmgbWatch my COMEDY SPECIAL on YouTube https://youtu.be/YaxhuZGtDLs  Learn more about your ad choices.

So much to pick on from little Keir's trip to see big Donald. Broadly speaking a success, but is it more because of what didn't go wrong than what went right? We look at all the important moments, but also the silly ones too - like Trump praising Keir's speech.

The brilliant Dom Frisby joins us to speculate on how stressed Keir must be at the prospect of stepping on the Trump train. We also discuss the possibility of a British DOGE and the recent election results in Germany (with very little insight). In the Patreon only section I play Dom's brilliantly offensive song about Ofcom. Watch my STAND-UP SPECIAL 'Basic Bloke' on ITVX:  https://www.itv.com/watch/geoff-norcott:-basic-bloke/10a6363a0001B/10a6363a0001Order the PAPERBACK EDITION of my book: https://www.amazon.co.uk/British-Bloke-Decoded-Everything-explained/dp/1800961308/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=JOIN the Podcast Patreon and receive each episode early, AD-FREE & with bonus content https://www.patreon.com/geoffnorcott?fan_landing=true Join my MAILING LIST for priority Tour booking & special offers https://signup.ymlp.com/xgyueuwbgmgbWatch my COMEDY SPECIAL on YouTube https://youtu.be/YaxhuZGtDLs  Learn more about your ad choices.

Only back on UK soil for a matter of hours and I have a Breaking News Episode. I look at Donald & Vladimir acting like the Pink Ladies at the Beginning of Grease.

As I'm away this week I pre-recorded a lovely chat with Seann Walsh. It's a nice break from hard news as we contemplate the rising price of eating out, where to get the cheapest petrol & moaned about the comedy industry. In the Patreon only section we discuss a recent study suggesting women are more generous than men. Watch my STAND-UP SPECIAL 'Basic Bloke' on ITVX:  https://www.itv.com/watch/geoff-norcott:-basic-bloke/10a6363a0001B/10a6363a0001Order the PAPERBACK EDITION of my book: https://www.amazon.co.uk/British-Bloke-Decoded-Everything-explained/dp/1800961308/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=JOIN the Podcast Patreon and receive each episode early, AD-FREE & with bonus content https://www.patreon.com/geoffnorcott?fan_landing=true Join my MAILING LIST for priority Tour booking & special offers https://signup.ymlp.com/xgyueuwbgmgbWatch my COMEDY SPECIAL on YouTube https://youtu.be/YaxhuZGtDLs  Learn more about your ad choices.

Late pull-out today (that's what she said) so it's just me today. But boy is there a lot to catch up on! From dodgy Whatsapps to Angela Rayner making moves. I also discuss the idea of 'Have it all dads' but end up looking at stupid gift ideas. In the Patreon only I analyse why Gen Z wouldn't fight for their country and whether they'd do it for vouchers. Watch my STAND-UP SPECIAL 'Basic Bloke' on ITVX:  https://www.itv.com/watch/geoff-norcott:-basic-bloke/10a6363a0001B/10a6363a0001Order the PAPERBACK EDITION of my book: https://www.amazon.co.uk/British-Bloke-Decoded-Everything-explained/dp/1800961308/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=JOIN the Podcast Patreon and receive each episode early, AD-FREE & with bonus content https://www.patreon.com/geoffnorcott?fan_landing=true Join my MAILING LIST for priority Tour booking & special offers https://signup.ymlp.com/xgyueuwbgmgbWatch my COMEDY SPECIAL on YouTube https://youtu.be/YaxhuZGtDLs  Learn more about your ad choices.

Iain Dale joins me to take a deep-dive on an absolute Pandora's box of embarrassing scoops on the Labour Party. From Keir getting voice training to Angela calling Prince Andrew a n**ce we gleefully climb into the juicy bits.

Following Rachel's big speech about growth I get into the reeds of Labour on their knees begging the City to like them. I discuss whether she should in fact go for four runways, why Labour politicians shouldn't try to sound like Trump & why Reeves Vs Sadiq is like Alien Vs Predator.Watch my STAND-UP SPECIAL 'Basic Bloke' on ITVX:  https://www.itv.com/watch/geoff-norcott:-basic-bloke/10a6363a0001B/10a6363a0001Order the PAPERBACK EDITION of my book: https://www.amazon.co.uk/British-Bloke-Decoded-Everything-explained/dp/1800961308/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=JOIN the Podcast Patreon and receive each episode early, AD-FREE & with bonus content https://www.patreon.com/geoffnorcott?fan_landing=true Join my MAILING LIST for priority Tour booking & special offers https://signup.ymlp.com/xgyueuwbgmgbWatch my COMEDY SPECIAL on YouTube https://youtu.be/YaxhuZGtDLs  Learn more about your ad choices.
