What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott

Was delighted to welcome back the brilliant Matt Forde to lock horns over Labour's start to government. Matt also has some wise words about the rise of Reform and why some football fans see their team like the local council. And of course I shamelessly ask him to do some impressions.Order 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.

A busy week which fully warranted an extra episode. Not just me hob-sobbing with the political elites or having my whole career defined by a tweet about Paddington Bear, but Keir Starmer also laid out his six political milestones. At a film studio, but with all the panache of Mr Bean. Order 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.

Was delighted to have the very funny Alun Cochrane back on the show. As well some talk about horror-show Christmas gigs we reflected on the assisted dying debate, the transport secretary getting thrown under a bus and whether being a bit 'Gregg Wallace' is now officially a thing.Order 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.

A rare in-person record this week as myself and Jacob Hawley boshed a coffee each and probably spoke too fast. We discussed the frivolous e-petition, but also the hypocrisy of some Remoaners. We also got annoyed with Elon for his constant obsession with Britain and reflected on whether 'Bert' is a weird name for a storm.Order 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.

Had to crack out another episode this week to deal with the Farmer protests, and an interesting clash at PMQs. Then - in the week of International Men's Day - The Man Whisperer rejoins us to chat about the big issues facing blokes and young men in particular (I also make some immature jokes about porn). Order 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.

This week Simon Evans joins us to ask if Labour have turned the economy around....and are now steering it into a wall at high speed. We also look at Trump's picks and compare the glitzy nature of US politics versus our 'Colin from Accounts' era. Then there's the assisted dying bill, where we assess the nuances while also making cheap jokes.Order 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.

The brilliant Andrew Doyle returns to ask whether young women voted Trump because they hate themselves? (no) We also look at what it means for the UK. Will Starmer cosy up to Donald or will it all end like the final scene of Love Actually? In the Patreon only bonus section we ask whether Justin Welby should resign - also whether he's too old for a name like 'Justin'.Order 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.

A momentous week. First up I reflect on seeing Kemi make a mixed debut as I attended PMQS and realised the Tories really are a small bunch these days. Then it's the US election and the incredible return of Donald Trump. I reflect on everything the Democrats did wrong and why insulting the electorate until they change their mind isn't necessarily the best strategy.Order 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.

Rachel Fairburn, a witty comedian known for her sharp social commentary, returns to dissect Labour's budget aftermath and the ‘coronation’ of Kemi Badenoch. They ponder whether Kamala Harris might edge out Trump using stealth tactics. The conversation takes a humorous turn with tales of pubs that sound friendly but are surprisingly violent, and they poke fun at travelers who adopt accents after brief trips abroad. Their insights cleverly blend politics, culture, and comedy, making for a lively discussion you won't want to miss!

I brought in the big gun Iain to discuss a huuuuuge (copyright Donald Trump) week for UK and US politics. First we discuss the budget and Labour's inability to define working people or exactly who will benefit in the long run. After that we look at Kemi as the likely next Tory leader. Then it's over the pond to look at the final stages of the Presidential race and why maybe comedians aren't the best booking. Order 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.
