What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott
258 episodes - English - Latest episode: 4 days ago - ★★★★★ - 18 ratingsIn 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?

EP 244 - Politics and Murder with STIG ABELL

August 29, 2023 18:31 - 39 minutesThis 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?...

EP 211 - Starmer Chameleon with IAN STONE
August 08, 2023 01:01 - 54 minutesThis 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.

EP 210 - The Secrets of Modern Advertising
August 01, 2023 01:01 - 50 minutesI'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...

EP 209 - Post election shakedown with MATT FORDE
July 25, 2023 18:49 - 1 hourDelighted 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.
