What Most People Think with 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

BREAKING NEWS - Sturgeon Takes The Bait

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2025/08/15

As I'm still up at the Fringe I've been fascinated by wee Nicola's PR tour for her book where it turns out she did nothing wrong and everyone should just be nicer to her. I also reflected on a whopping 0.3% quarter of economic growth and even more impressive growth in the number of illegal boat crossings.

PENSIONERS 4 PALESTINE with Rachel Fairburn

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2025/08/13

The brilliant Rachel Fairburn returns this week. We ask whether pensioners right to protest should be protected or if they should be lobbed in a meat-wagon like anyone else. There's also talk of Starmer's unconvincing attempts to become a right-wing Harman. We then reflect on the Edinburgh Fringe and how it got progressively less funny.CATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No Bloke Without Fire’.

BREAKING NEWS - Homeslessness Minister Evicts Herself

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2025/08/08

I'm back off holiday and there was an absolute doozy of a story to climb into as a govt minister turfed out some tenants as she was about to bring through legislation making that illegal! In other news Nigel Farage has been on his 'Britain is F**cked' Tour and there have been some disputes over his numbers. And Kemi Badenoch tried to improve her public perception by admitting being a snitch?? CATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No Bloke Without Fire’. Book tickets here:

BREAKING NEWS #48 - Starmer gripped by Pannick

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2025/07/31

Had to do another episode ahead of going away until next Friday, not least because Ole Slippery Starmer's Palestine plan seems to be unravelling quickly - even for him. Not just that, Peter Kyle has been out calling other politicians nonces while young people seem to be breaking for Jeremy and Nigel. I ask 'why are young women so easily seduced by the far Left?'CATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No Bloke Without Fire’. Book tickets

FRINGE CANCELS COMIC BEFORE EVEN STARTING with...

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2025/07/29

Delighted to have Francis Foster back on the show as we consider the impact of the online safety act for for expression (porn, basically). We react also to the super tense press conference with Trump & Starmer looking like a man waiting for an elderly relative to say something dodgy. We then look at the issue of two Jewish comics cancelled by their Edinburgh venues despite their shows not being political. I guess it's Fringe cancellation season!

WATER, TEENAGERS & EPSTEIN’S LIST with Ian Stone

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2025/07/22

Delighted to welcome back fellow veteran clubber Ian Stone this week. As Parliament headed to recess it gave us the chance to consider the water review (and make puns about it). We also reflected on giving 16 year olds the vote (they'll probably end up voting for Nigel or Jeremy). Then we chatted Trump for the first time in a while: is he on the Epstein list? Is he going a bit mad? All shall be revealed... ATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No Bloke Without Fire’. Book tickets

Didn't think there would be enough news for a breaking news then it all kicks off! BLAM - Starmer suspends 4 Labour backbenchers. KAPOW - Tories & Labour up to their necks in the Afghan data leak row (which I've tried my best to unpack so you don't have to). Plus I bemoan having to multi-task.

LABOUR’S UNHOLY UNION with Simon Evans

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2025/07/15

The brilliant Simon Evans returns to discuss a bit of family friction between Labour and the Unions (we also reflect on how it might sound hearing Angela say 'silly stunts'). Also - after some classic Noughties sitcoms have had trigger warnings imposed - we ask what IS the point? In the Patreon only section we ask if Oasis' reunion heralds the return of guitar bands and young men acting like kn*bs. CATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No Bloke Without Fire’.

GAY OR QUEER? with Scott Capurro

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2025/07/08

A brilliant new guest this week as Scott Capurro makes his WMPT. For my money, Scott is one of the most genuinely controversial comics i've worked with and it was great to get his uncompromising takes on everything from a recent Labour poll on Starmer to the fact London Pride marches aren't what they were. In the Patreon only we discuss offence in comedy and why Scott might get more than cancelled if he release one particular routine...CATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No Bloke Without

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2025/07/01

An interesting episode as music becomes politics with Kneecap and Bob Vylan making headlines from the festival. Simon Brodkin joins me to discuss where criticism of Israel stops and anti-semitism beings (and also how hot the kneecap lads must've been in the balaclava). We also chat about Starmer's worst seven day period since becoming PM. We also ask whether he thinks the 'two tier' nickname is actually quite cool.
