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

GLASTONBURIED (Sage Against The Machine) with Simon...

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.

IRAN OR I-RAN?

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2025/06/24

Had a late guest drop out, which gave me the chance to get stuck into some fairly big news stories which have broke since last week. From Trump bombing Iran's nuclear facilities to Starmer seemingly not having a view either way. From bad economic news to Farage robbing the rich to feed the poor. I also discuss the BBC News presenter bold enough to correct some language around pregnancy.CATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No Bloke Without Fire’. Book tickets

BREAKING NEWS #44 - The Fat Police One

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2025/06/20

Bit of a smorgasbord this week as I pick up some political loose ends, including 'Big Ange' looking good at PMQS and problems with the Tory 'talent' pool. I also suggest the changes in reproductive rights might be a surprise to most people. Then I get into correspondence from actual policeman on why coppers ain't what they were.CATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No Bloke Without Fire’.

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2025/06/17

A cracking episode this week with Mark Steel. We discuss grooming gangs and Starmer swivelling in a constant state of U-turns. Plus we examine why this week's G7 could be the most depressing ever given global events. We also chat about the rising stock of Father's Day and why men still die younger.

BREAKING NEWS #43 - Rachel's Spending Splurge

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2025/06/12

With a U-turn and bad jobs news on the way in, Rachel Reeves still doled out the cash (even if she made it sound like a punishment). More for defence and the NHS plus good times if you've got shares in Taylor Wimpey. But will tax go up? (not a rhetorical question).

DO WE NEED ANOTHER THATCHER? - with Iain Dale

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2025/06/10

Iain Dale joined this week to talk to me about his new biography on Magaret Thatcher. We discussed the biggest misconceptions about the the Iron Lady (including how left-wing she was as education secretary and might not have been the first 'milk snatcher'). We also discuss solid reasons why modern politicians are unlikely to ever match her grit, even if she remains a divisive figure. In the Patreon only section I ask Iain how Lady Thatch would've approached this week's spending review. CATCH ME

A GOOD TIME TO INVADE - with Dominic Frisby

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2025/06/03

WMPT favourite Dom Frisby was back on the show to discuss Starmer's big talk on defence. Do the policies match up? And should we show our kids rubbish war films? We also talk about whether the Left teasing Trump led to a rise in steel tariffs (and why we love the way he says 'nasty'). In the Patreon only section we ask if the French are losing their cool as they ban smoking on beaches. CATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No Bloke Without Fire’. Book tickets

BREAKING NEWS #42 - Starmer Vs Farage

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2025/05/30

Lots of breaking news since Wednesday so I got my teeth into the growing beef between the PM and Nigel. We also consider Robert Jenrick going full vigilante and scoring himself a viral hit. Over in the states Donald is getting a bit thin-skinned over TACO while his former BFF Elon is off to pastures new. CATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No Bloke Without Fire’.

LABOUR'S SIMMERING RIVALRIES - (includes live stand-up)

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2025/05/28

I get into some of the murmurings of discontent around the Labour Party (including some gossip I heard about the chancellor!) We also look at Farage's big speech and wonder how he ended up pro-benefits. Then there's the decline of Doctor Who: is it another scalp for woke or something else? In the Patreon only I discuss a brand new book about the cover up around Joe Biden's health. CATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No Bloke Without Fire’. Book tickets

2025/05/20

The lovely Rachel was back on the show today for another in-person recording. We got our teeth into the big news on the EU and conclude that people will probably like the passport stuff but hate the fishing. Then there's the Lineker news, first red card of his career.

2025/05/15

So much politics since the main show I had to squeeze this out. From Gary Lineker sharing posts echoing the imagery of 1930's Germany to Keir Starmer being accused of sexism and sounding like Enoch Powell in the same week.
