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":"WHITE WORKING CLASS BOYS - Feat.
