What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott

It seems like a lifetime since the last episode so I did a round up of all the big political news, including the Tories facing electoral wipeout, Labour voters getting a bit smug, Sadiq up to his usual tricks & a bit of baiting for the work from home crowd.  (For the Patreon only version we continue the discussion about the Left's intolerance for right-wing women).

This was  one of those weeks where I had to do a breaking news. From Rishi's handshake to Labour's U-turn and the advent of the PopCons (?!?) I felt like needed a catch-up / therapy.

This week I'm delighted to have the host of the News Quiz and - more importantly - the test match special stats guy, Andy Zaltzman.

After a quick chat about the readiness of the British army (or lack of it), I speak to Felicity Ward. She's a great comic and has been a keen advocate for focus on men's mental health and suicide prevention. She's also soon to star in the Aussie remake of the The Office so I thought I'd nab here before she gets too famous to talk to me. Support the Podcast, keep it weekly & AD-FREE https://www.pat...

So much news this week I had to do another episode. I round up PMQs using Sunak & Starmer's 'jokes'.

The very wise Iain Dale joins me this week to deliver early end of year reports for Keir & Rishi. We talk about Keir's weird fanboying on Thatcher and how no-one 'stands up' to Rishi.

After a catch up with James Cleverley getting in a bit of bother and Patrick Vallance's definitely private diaries, I speak to 80's and 90's football legend Perry Groves. Perry is so insightful and funny talking about the cultural (and drinking) differences between now and then. We talk about everything from the notorious Arsenal 'Tuesday Club' to players taking the knee, the Saudi coin and much m...

Great to have Konstantin back co-hosting, fresh from another appearance on Joe Rogan. We talk about the new 'far right' Argentine President (and his hair).

I was always going to do an extra show to mark #InternationalMensDay but I would probably have had to do one for the politics on its own. What a bizarre week, from the return of Cameron to the Labour Party rediscovering it's ability to self destruct. After that me and Kenny chat about bloke's stuff, with serious things but also some very immature comments as well. Support the Podcast, keep it week...

Geoff is joined by Marcus Brigstocke as Suella gets the sack while Dave Cameron is back. We also reflect on a mad day of protest in the capital and look ahead to where it all goes next (includes laughing at yet another numpty protesting in McDonalds).  The show ends with us agreeing it's absolutely fine to laugh at the misfortune of people you dislike intensely.  Support the Podcast, keep it weekl...
