What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott
Geoff Norcott
In an overwhelmingly Lefty comedic landscape, right-leaning stand-up Geoff Norcott is a rare beast. In WMPT he gets to the heart of what ordinary people think about social and political issues. Whatever the contentious subject – he’ll be honest and blunt, but without being a dick. Mostly. Guests come from across the social and political divide, including, Romesh Ranganathan, Jonathan Pie, Katherine Ryan, Andrew Doyle, David Baddiel, Konstantin Kisin, Owen Jones and many more. Geoff has appeared on Live at the Apollo, Backstage with Katherine Ryan, Would I lie to You? Have I Got News For You? The Last Leg, Mash Report, Question Time, Mock the Week and pops up frequently on UK political debate programmes. Geoff's book 'Where Did I Go Right?' came out in 2021 and top the political comedy best-seller list on multiple occasions. Geoff also won an operational medal for his five tours performing to British troops in Afghanistan. "One of our most refreshingly funny comedians of any stripe." - Sunday Times "A Right laugh." - The Guardian*

215: EP 215 - Rishi's Brick Wall & Starmer Reshuffle Drama with FIN TAYLOR
After i've had a laugh at how stressed Fin Taylor is we discuss the government's 'crumble brick syndrome' before wondering why Starmer drop-kicked Lisa Nandy into outer space. We then consider the cancellation of Roisin Murphy and whether the words 'puberty blocker' should cause alarm.

214: EP 214 - ULooze - Sadiq Squares up to Motorists
This week I climb into Sadiq's expansion of Ulez to greater London. I ask when he's ever going to do something popular with everybody.
I also talk about being a parent and the responsibility of telling them bad stuff from history. But what if they don't think it's bad?...

213: EP 213 - What's Happening to the Edinburgh Fringe? (plus chat with the Man Whisperer)
It's a game of two halves this week. I respond to the news around the cancellation of Graham Linehan's gig and general issues at the Edinburgh Fringe. Then it's some bloke chat as myself and the Man Whisperer ponder whether society dislikes blokes.

212: EP 212 - Snow White and the Two Gammons w/ LEO KEARSE
A very funny episode this week as me and Leo get bent out of shape by woke posturing around the news Disney Snow White film. We also talk about how the govts small boats week backfired spectacularly and why you should be allowed to say if someone looks like your lesbian Nanna.

211: EP 211 - Starmer Chameleon with IAN STONE
This is such a funny episode. Co-host Ian Stone was on great form. Despite being a centre-left guy, he's not too fond of Mr Starmer. I also launch a defence for Tories earning big money from second jobs, whilst we try to talk about the Lionesses without saying anything patronising.

210: EP 210 - The Secrets of Modern Advertising
I'm on holiday this week, so I pre-recorded a fascinating chat with advertising guru Paul Burke. Paul spills the beans on a number of secrets from the progressive obsessed world of modern advertising. Not only that he talks about being part of the team which sold Blair in the late Nineties, but he also has a surprise assessment of Rishi Sunak's electoral chances...

209: EP 209 - Post election shakedown with MATT FORDE
Delighted to have Matt Forde co-hosting this week.
After some very old sounding chat about recent gigs we've been to, I pick Matt's considerable political brain over last week's by election results. He's very forthright about why he thinks Labour are on the right track and Starmer is doing a good job. Well worth a listen.

The brilliant Nick Dixon returns to co-host as we mull over Rishi's university onslaught, Keir's back-peddling, hypocrisy over the Huw Edwards scandal and whether or not a man should call his genitals the 'ice breaker'.
