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*","last_synced_at":"2026-06-30T12:19:47.532986+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/what-most-people-think-with-geoff-norcott-872633"},"episode":{"title":"BREAKING NEWS - Dirty Russian Oil","slug":"breaking-news-dirty-russian-oil","published_at":"2026-05-21T15:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/what-most-people-think-with-geoff-norcott-872633/breaking-news-dirty-russian-oil","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/what-most-people-think-with-geoff-norcott-872633","url":"https://traffic.megaphone.fm/NSR5688308424.mp3","audio_url":"https://traffic.megaphone.fm/NSR5688308424.mp3","summary":"This week was an interesting one for Keir Starmer as he had to get used to his place on the political cuck-chair, whilst also fielding good news on inflation at the same time as dodgy news around Russian oil. Wes Streeting is campaigning hard and seems to be one of those rejoiners who thinks the EU still has that magic wand. There's also discussion of Rachel Reeve's run-in with a white van man and Robert Jenrick getting a drive-by off a Lib Dem. CATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No Bloke Without Fire’.
