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 Live at the Apollo, Backstage with Katherine Ryan, Would I lie to You? Have I Got News For You? The Last Leg, Mash Report, Question Time, Mock the Week and pops up frequently on UK political debate programmes. Geoff's book 'Where Did I Go Right?' came out in 2021 and top the political comedy best-seller list on multiple occasions. Geoff also won an operational medal for his five tours performing to British troops in Afghanistan. "One of our most refreshingly funny comedians of any stripe." - Sunday Times "A Right laugh." - The Guardian*

EP 247 - Ho-Humza & Election Fever with IAIN DALE
In this huge political week it was great to get Iain back on the show to talk about the upcoming local and mayoral elections & also reflect on the HUMbelievable downfall of Humza. We also speculate on what form a Penny Mordaunt leadership bid would take, and conclude it would involve a cape and a sword.

EP 246 - Angela Rayner, Violent Crime and Library Nonc*s with RACHEL FAIRBURN
We have a lady this week! Not just that a funny working class Northern lady (so many boxes ticked). Rachel Fairburn joins me to consider whether anyone cares about Angela Rayner's dogginess, if there really is a drop in violent crime and whether there's such a thing as Library Nonc*s

EP 245 - Liz Truss, WW3 & Cancel Culture with SEANN WALSH
This week Seann Walsh returns for a very eclectic show. We discuss Liz Truss and her theory about running restaurants, the prospect of World War 3 and my belief that Seann is within his rights to look down his nose at modern cancel culture victims. There's also one of my favourite ever moments as Seann starts an observation about plastic bottles which he doesn't get to finish....

BREAKING NEWS #8 - Fallout from the Cass Report
In this episode I try to give a very normal bloke response to the findings of the Cass Report. I won't lie, it's a heavy subject, so luckily there was also a fun YouGov survey this week asking the public silly questions about Sunak and Starmer which I get stuck into. I also reveal one of the most childish things I've ever done.

EP 244 - Politics and Murder with STIG ABELL
This week I talk to broadcaster and write Stig Abell about politics and murder. Stig presents a breakfast show and gives on the background on politicians who say stupid things or - indeed - nothing at all. Then it's on to murder. Stig is a crime novelist and I challenge him to justify why it's ok to be entertained by people being killed.
Get a copy of Stig's book, 'Death in a Lonely Place', here: https://harpercollins.co.uk/products/death-in-a-lonely-place-jake-jackson-book-2-stig-abell?variant=40311010820174

EP 243 - JK Rowling and the Deathly Scottish Hate Crime Bill
This week I climb into the Scottish hate crime bill cluster**** and how JK Rowling was able to call Humza's bluff. I also tentatively wonder if the Tory backlash has got a bit excessive. Additionally, there's another FREE audiobook chapter from THE BRITISH BLOKE DECODED.

Kundenrezensionen
Cherish your wives tho
listening to lots of podcasts at the moment cuz I’m redecorating and this one might be my new favorite (even tho im *whispers* left wing).
The one thing i would say to the blokes who write in to the show is maybe you shouldn’t moan so much about your wives. I know it’s banter and it’s not that deep but you have no idea how lucky you are!
As a very single Autistic Lesbian y’know i would kill for a wife, but most of the lez/bi women i know don’t really see me as an option 😩
honestly if i were youse, i’d be a bit more grateful for the women in your lives 🤷🏻♀️
Anyway keep up the good work,
Josie (go on, make fun of my name) Recknagel
Hallo Aus Deutschland
Geoff, should’ve done this sooner but the podcast is well deserving of five stars. Great chat, and serious points made with good humour. Also, having lived in the old Fatherland for nearly seven years now, looking at Brexit from the outside in, I appreciate the balance you bring from the opposing sides.
PS lying in bed worrying about stuff as we men are wont to do, i had a bit of a crisis the other day - realising i drive a VW Beetle and have a liking for Hugo Boss shirts, am I a Nazi now?
Best show keeping me engaged every minute every episode!
Cheers, Jon Voß
