After a turbulent week personally, it's on to a turbulent week for the Tories. The brilliant Andrew Doyle joins me to consider Suella's big move on migration and Rishi's tricky rebrand. Though i suspect the thing that'll stick with you is the idea of being 'force teamed'.

After i've had a laugh at how stressed Fin Taylor is we discuss the government's 'crumble brick syndrome' before wondering why Starmer drop-kicked Lisa Nandy into outer space. We then consider the cancellation of Roisin Murphy and whether the words 'puberty blocker' should cause alarm.  Support the Podcast, keep it weekly & AD-FREE https://www.patreon.com/geoffnorcott?fan_landing=true Come to my 2...

This week I climb into Sadiq's expansion of Ulez to greater London. I ask when he's ever going to do something popular with everybody.  I also talk about being a parent and the responsibility of telling them bad stuff from history. But what if they don't think it's bad?... Support the Podcast, keep it weekly & AD-FREE https://www.patreon.com/geoffnorcott?fan_landing=true Come to my 2023/24 TOUR  h...

It's a game of two halves this week. I respond to the news around the cancellation of Graham Linehan's gig and general issues at the Edinburgh Fringe.

A very funny episode this week as me and Leo get bent out of shape by woke posturing around the news Disney Snow White film.

This is such a funny episode. Co-host Ian Stone was on great form. Despite being a centre-left guy, he's not too fond of Mr Starmer. I also launch a defence for Tories earning big money from second jobs, whilst we try to talk about the Lionesses without saying anything patronising.  Support the Podcast, keep it weekly & AD-FREE https://www.patreon.com/geoffnorcott?fan_landing=true Come to my 2023/...

I'm on holiday this week, so I pre-recorded a fascinating chat with advertising guru Paul Burke. Paul spills the beans on a number of secrets from the progressive obsessed world of modern advertising. Not only that he talks about being part of the team which sold Blair in the late Nineties, but he also has a surprise assessment of Rishi Sunak's electoral chances...

Delighted to have Matt Forde co-hosting this week.  After some very old sounding chat about recent gigs we've been to, I pick Matt's considerable political brain over last week's by election results.  He's very forthright about why he thinks Labour are on the right track and Starmer is doing a good job. Well worth a listen.  Support the Podcast, keep it weekly & AD-FREE https://www.patreon.com/geo...
