BREAKING NEWS - Starmer Sutra U-turns again!

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2026/01/15

In a busy news cycle I look at Labour's u-turn on digital ID and what possessed Starmer to make a sex-joke at PMQs. I also look at more January political transfer window activity as Bobby J joins with Nigel F. Then I talk about London murder rates and the right's increasing inability to recognise good news.

INSTABAN: Will Kemi Hit Social Media? - Feat. Ian Stone

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2026/01/13

Was delighted to have super-sub Ian Stone to come off the bench for absolute blowout merchant Francis Foster (who apparently is involved with a much bigger podcast). Me and Stoney evaluate Kemi's proposal to ban social media for under 16's and find ourselves on unusual sides of the political fence. That continues into our chat about Trump, where we realise that if he sorts out Iran he might be a massive Feminist. In the Patreon only I reveal why I ended up in A & E and why I'm a massive

BREAKING NEWS - Labour's Problem with Pubs

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2026/01/09

In this first Breaking News of the year I ask 'Do Labour Have a problem with Pubs?' Spoiler alert - yes. From the u-turn on business rates and the attempts to reduce drink-drive limits they seem to have an issue with people having fun. What else do the British public really want to talk about? That's right, weather. I discuss the feeling of betrayal when you have to de-ice your car twice in the same day.CATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No Bloke Without Fire’. Book tickets here:

Trump Starts 2026 With a Bang - Feat. Alun Cochrane

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2026/01/06

The brilliant Alun Cochrane joins me to join over Trump taking over Venezuela while we were all nursing hangovers. We start however by digesting Keir Starmer's New Year interview with Laura Kuennsburg and wonder whether any of his mates are telling him the truth about his popularity (or lack of). In the Patron only section Alun has a particularly stinging death story to share, the moral of it being 'don't go on after a guy who juggles guitars'. CATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No

2026 POLITICAL PREDICTIONS

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2025/12/30

It's time to see what I got right for this year and throw ahead to 2026. Will Starmer survive the the year? (spoiler alert - no). Will Kemi Badenoch continue the Tory's modest revival? Will Nigel Farage manage a lot of games over the tricky Christmas period? And will Ed Davey ever say anything of consequence. CATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No Bloke Without Fire’.

CHRISTMAS SPECIAL 2025 - Feat. Romesh Ranganathan

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2025/12/18

Romesh returns for another Christmas cracker. We discuss what's in Keir Starmer's Christmas dinner, what films Kemi Badenoch watches and how insufferable Ed Davey is. Then it's onto festival games where we laugh a lot and somehow come up with a collective noun for a group of anus. In the Patreon only Romesh shares a bad gig death story which means he can never go back to Leicester...CATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No Bloke Without Fire’. Book tickets here:

Who's Had A Good 2025? - Feat. Simon Evans

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2025/12/09

In this bumper episode myself and Simon Evans consider all the big moments from the main political parties and give their leaders a score out of 10. No spoilers, but it's extra tuition for Ed Davey, keep it up for Kemi, gold star for Nigel and special measures for Starmer.

BREAKING NEWS - Nigel Farage Vs The Black & White...

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2025/12/05

I react to one of the more surprising political stories of the year as Nigel Farage goes on the counter-offensive against the BBC's back-catalogue. We also talk about Calamity Lammy's attempts to sell jury-free trials to the public. However there's praise for Wes Streeting as he shrewdly attempts to prove the blindingly obvious about mental health. CATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No Bloke Without Fire’.

Rachel Reeves or Rachel Misleads? - Feat. Konstantin...

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2025/12/02

The brilliant Konstantin Kisin makes a welcome return to discuss the storm around the chancellor after her 'creative' relationship with hard economic facts. We also discuss Your Party dramatically changing their name to 'Your Party'. Then Konstantin talks about a special report he's made in a town which has fears about housing 600 undocumented migrants on a barracks. In the Patron only we unpack another mental arrest by UK police. CATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No Bloke Without Fire’

* BUDGET REACTION SPECIAL *

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2025/11/27

I had to re-record as this as my first effort was far too angry ! I get into the budget Rachel promised she'd never have to do again. I'm undeniably angry that it hit me in the balls, but also will it hamper growth too? I then look at increasingly confident Kemi's response and suggest her growing popularity is because we're all crying out for strong matriarchs.

A Very Taxing Week - Feat. Dominic Frisby

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2025/11/24

In the week of the budget there was no better guest than comedian and financial oracle Dominic Frisby. We make predictions, but also consider bizarre forfeits for leaking to the press. With a deal in Ukraine looming, we apply our limited knowledge to developments and wonder why Trump gets golf clubs out of these deals while our guy only gets free glasses. In the Patron only section it's more DEATH STORIES as we trade mortifying failures on stage. CATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No

LABOUR TALK TUFF ON IMMMIGRATION - Feat. Pierre Novellie

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2025/11/18

The whip-smart Pierre Novellie returns to discuss Shabana apparently being in the Mahmoud to fix the home office. We also ask whether Trump bankrupting the BBC is such a great outcome after all, while also examining some of the emerging splits in MAGA. Then it's onto censorship, as establishment p**ck Paddington forces the removal of jokes about him. ATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No Bloke Without Fire’. Book tickets here:

BREAKING NEWS - Starmer Coup Drama

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2025/11/13

A lot to digest since this week's main episode. I discuss Keir Starmer 'stabbing himself in the front' by letting his own paranoia give Wes Streeting to demonstrate he might be a better option (funnier at least). In another tricky week, growth is down and unemployment is up...I think we all know how this movie ends. CATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No Bloke Without Fire’.

The lovely Rachel Fairburn returns this week and we get into how the hell the BBC ended up on the wrong side of a fake news argument with Donald. Then it's another beeb scandal as Have I Got News For You airs not one, but two C-bombs!

2025/11/06

A lot to digest this week after Rachel Reeves dumped on everyone's cornflakes on Tuesday then David Lammy almost made us throw up our lunch the following day. In between times needy Nigel continued his desire to be a news story once a week by rowing back on everything he said about tax - plus the Tory MP who missed an open goal.CATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No Bloke Without Fire’.

So Who *Should* Pay More Tax? - Feat. Vittorio Angelone

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2025/11/04

Was a pleasure to welcome back Vittorio for this week's show, as I took the advantage of a younger man's perspective and asked exactly who should be taxed more (spoiler alert, not me). We also respond to mad article in Vogue suggesting young women are 'embarrassed' about having boyfriends, where we lament not being fully paid up members the patriarchy.CATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No Bloke Without Fire’.

IS THIS GOVT CURSED OR JUST NOT VERY GOOD? - Feat....

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2025/10/29

Mark Steel returns this week to shed light on Labour's lowest ever polling, as we contemplate if they're unlucky or just a bit crap? Mark also nearly tempts me other to the Leftie dark side as he puts forward an argument for why we should all gang up on the super rich (especially those giving human jobs to computers).

BREAKING NEWS - Labour Not Very Caerphil

What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott ·

2025/10/24

I respond Labour's battering in Caerphilly (and the Tories dismal 2%). I also investigate Farage's flounce out of PMQs and ask whether it's political or performative. The Lib Dems get some flak too, as it turns out they may have been feeding Starmer advance warning of their questions.

2025/10/16

I recorded this in the midst of being cancelled by the people of Aldershot!! In more real world affairs, I discuss Rachel Reeves 'rolling the pitch' to make us all poorer (again).
