What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott

Marcus returns this week (and there's a bombshell reveal at the end as to his current position on Brexit). We talk about Labour's terrible handling of the Winter Fuel allowance changes and whether Ed Davey (Ed Samey anyone?) provides meaningful opposition. We also discuss the revolutionary idea that parents are responsible for d**khead kids.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/xgyueuwbgmgbBOOK Tickets for Edinburgh Fringe run:  https://www.livenation.co.uk/artist-geoff-norcott-1252793 Watch my COMEDY SPECIAL on YouTube https://youtu.be/YaxhuZGtDLs  Learn more about your ad choices.

Triggernometry's Francis Foster joins me this week as we bicker (flirt?) our way through a torrid week for Labour. We ask whether the public are buying all of Starmer's 'black holes'. We also discuss the Oasis ticket debacle and conclude that old people are tired and young people don't like music. Francis also informs me of dark forces within the comedy industry trying to cancel his gigs...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/xgyueuwbgmgbBOOK Tickets for Edinburgh Fringe run:  https://www.livenation.co.uk/artist-geoff-norcott-1252793 Watch my COMEDY SPECIAL on YouTube https://youtu.be/YaxhuZGtDLs  Learn more about your ad choices.

Tom Walker returns this week and I gleefully enjoyed putting questions to him about recent cronyism in the Labour government. We also explored how left-wing comics like him are adapting to Labour being in charge and I got very upset about the price of poppadoms with pickle. 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.

I'm up at the Edinburgh Fringe but felt like I had to respond to the glitzy luvvie fest that was the US Democratic Committee. Lots of rappers and jokes and about Donald Trump's penis, but did Kamala deliver the goods or just more stuff for people to meme in years to come?Also I tear into a hilariously woke announcement from the head of the Edinburgh Fringe. 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/xgyueuwbgmgbBOOK Tickets for Edinburgh Fringe run:  https://www.livenation.co.uk/artist-geoff-norcott-1252793 Watch my COMEDY SPECIAL on YouTube https://youtu.be/YaxhuZGtDLs  Learn more about your ad choices.

Simon Evans re-joins this week on brilliant comic & analytical form. We discuss the worrying authoritarian tendencies being show by Labour (and whether you can impersonate Angela Rayner just by singing Oasis lyrics). We also consider the news that Gen Z are reverting back to old hobbies like weaving and knitting (maybe to save money?). In the Patreon only we discuss the case of a woman arrested for silently praying (you can't think anything these days). 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/xgyueuwbgmgbBOOK Tickets for Edinburgh Fringe run:  https://www.livenation.co.uk/artist-geoff-norcott-1252793 Watch my COMEDY SPECIAL on YouTube https://youtu.be/YaxhuZGtDLs  Learn more about your ad choices.

Ian Stone, a comedian and commentator known for his insightful takes on current events and mental health, joins for a lively discussion. They tackle the chaos of riots and the Tory leadership race, all while poking fun at Trump's eccentricities. A heartfelt moment reveals their struggles with mental health check-ins. Deep dives into political dynamics highlight generational divides within the Conservative Party, and they speculate on global issues like Ukraine's actions, blending humor with serious conversation.

With the Edinburgh Fringe in full swing I finally got one of my comedy heroes on the show. Tom Stade has been giving zero F's for as long as I remember. He doesn't set out to offend but he'll never apologise when he does. We have a great chat about woke comedy and where to draw the line (if there's a line at all). 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/xgyueuwbgmgbBOOK Tickets for Edinburgh Fringe run:  https://www.livenation.co.uk/artist-geoff-norcott-1252793 Watch my COMEDY SPECIAL on YouTube https://youtu.be/YaxhuZGtDLs  Learn more about your ad choices.

This week I was delighted to welcome Andrew Doyle back to discuss Labour's Black hole / white lie, Kemi throwing her hat in the leadership ring and the mischievous smear against JD Vance.
