What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott

0

In an overwhelmingly Lefty comedic landscape, right-leaning stand-up Geoff Norcott is a rare beast. 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*

    An honest, refreshing podcast that’s become my regular listen
    Really enjoying Geoff’s take on politics - as an ex pat living in the US it’s refreshing to hear a sensible, right-wing viewpoint and I also like that he’s not afraid to criticise both sides of the political spectrum! Keep up the good work, I’ll be buying my parents tickets to the Leicester tour date later this year.
  • Christine O13
    Humorous and intelligent
    Finally someone brave and intelligent enough to take a humorous angle on British politics with a right of centre slant, but still knows when to give the Tories what they deserve. Only constructive feedback would be to stop saying what “old man views” you have because you have at least one female Human Resources professional nodding and laughing along with you!

    From … A vegan listener
    Well, this is the second time I give you 5-star review; c’mon, you can tell your listeners you have a vegan fan, it’s okay! By the way, I did understand the humour behind your comments… when the vegans attacked you on social media, or something along those lines; so, please, don’t hate us all, some of us do have a sense of humour. Loved listening to the excerpts from your book! I was LOL’ing when you said that everyone was doing the Conga - in regard to someone winning an election, etc. You are hilarious! Planning on buying your book. :) PS: Watch The Game Changers on Netflix: about lots of manly men that are professional athletes discussing the benefits of a plant-based diet. ;)

    Keeps me in touch
    I’ve recently moved to the US and have found Geoff’s podcast invaluable in keeping in touch with the views of the common man. I used to rely on LBC and London Cabbies but unfortunately the Uber drivers Stateside are not as forthright with their views. It’s definitely funnier than the Moral Maze, which is one of the other podcasts I subscribe to.

    Love this podcast
    I’m new to this show and I absolutely love it. I’m from the states so quite a bit of the politics go over my head, but I appreciate the sentiments. Those of us right of center are starved for entertainment that isn’t saturated in leftist dogma and is also funny. This is it.

    Comic Take on Society & Politics
    I first heard his excellent set 'Right Leaning but Well-Meaning" on Radio 4 - the BEEB allowing a pro-Brexit comic 30 minutes in a year of output to balance the rest of its output. Nice to spend time with an amusing take on current affairs that does not decry what most people think and to hear a working class accent for a change. (Geoff elocution lessons for the kids...their vocab will be fine.)
