- Comedy
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*

BREAKING NEWS #14 Mass Debate 'til Your Heart's Content
In this episode I dive into the big leader's debate on Question Time. What did it teach us? Other than Keir is slippery, Rishi looks depressed, Ed is a chilled out entertainer and John Swinney looks like Jean Luc Picard after a rough few years.

EP 254 - Election reaches the Half-way Snark (with SCOTT BENNETT)
This week I had a chat with Scott Bennett who is funny and Northern. At the half-way mark in the election we reflected on the stand-out moments - from Rishi in the rain to the mystery of Keir's dad's profession. We also wonder again why journos can't deal with Farage. In the Patreon only we discuss the Euros, not least why Lineker was so badly dressed.

EP 253 - Rishi's Sky Dishi & Slippery Starmer Karma (with HUGO RIFKIND)
I'm back from Ibiza so thank god I had Hugo Rifkind to help 'remind' me of the week's big political news. From Rishi's Sky Dishi to Slippery Stamer's Corbyn karma & Nigel's one man political blunderbuss. We also talk about Hugo's excellent new book 'Rabbits' which has guns, drugs and loads of cool references to the Nineties.

BREAKING NEWS #13 Dodgy Debates and the return of Naughty Nigel
Another BREAKING NEWS episode. I do a deep dive on the big debate. Why was Starmer blinking so much? How much coffee had Rishi had? Why was Julie Etchingham acting like their step-mum? And will Nigel Farage ruin it for both of them?

BREAKING NEWS #12 Slippery Starmer & Dodgy Donald Trump
I climb into slippery Starmer's cloak & dagger purge of the Left and end up defending Diane Abbott (??). I also question whether Ed Davey is looking at a career and theatre - and of course we had to break down the landmark ruling in the Trump case. If he goes to jail it could be an HBO show.
