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":"NUMBER 10 NORTH - Feat.

We react to Burnham's big speech and whether he's secretly prepping to hammer the south. We also evaluate some of the possible choices for chancellor (no boats being floated here either). Then we talk about Thomas Tuchel and the welcome return of brutal feedback. In the patron only section we look at the exponential rise of kids with anxiety and ask whether everyone needs to crack on and stop moaning.
