What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott

BREAKING NEWS - A Mad, Mad Week

Sometimes this show is political therapy as much as commentary, so I try to analyse a week where the PM was on the brink, then he wasn't, then he went on to give one of the most bizarre PMQs in living memory. Also, Nigel wanted some attention this week, so I discuss his plan to ban all working from home. CATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No Bloke Without Fire’.

NUMBER TEN IMPLODING - Feat. Tom Walker (aka Jonathan Pie)

What a week for Tom to rejoin me as we analyse everything that's got Keir Starmer to the brink of an early exit. We chat about whether Starmer has a normal voice he's hiding and whether he'll shortly have to do the world's worst gardening leave. We also discuss the frankly ridiculous notion of theme park queue-jump for people with ADHD. In the Patron only we get into why Bad Bunny was singing only in Spanish at the Super Bowl.CATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No Bloke Without Fire’.

BREAKING NEWS - Starmer Dragged Into Mandelson's Murk

In this episode I reflect on a PMQS which might go down in history. From the stoney silence behind him to the fact he insisted on calling him simply 'Mandelson'. Then it's onto what happens next, an inquiry is one thing but all the public now know his team hired a guy who'd stayed friends with a n*nce. Can the caped crusader survive this one?CATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No Bloke Without Fire’.

The End (finally) of Mandelson's Career? - Feat. Dom Frisby

Cracking episode this as WMPT favourite Dom returns to chew over all the nomination for the upcoming by-election (before realising they're not great). We then look at Jeremy Clarkson's scathing article about Reform and wonder how that'll go down with Nigel. Then it's reflections on Peter Mandelson's latest in a long line of 'tricky' headlines.

FEAR STARMER BURNS BURNHAM'S BRIDGES - Feat. Jacob Hawley

This week Jacob Hawley joins me to discuss the 'psychodrama' of Andy Burnham's bid to become a Labour MP and probably take Keir Starmer's job. We also chat about what must've been said in the NEC group / Keir Starmer's BFF round-table. Then we reflect on Trump's comments about British troops and why you should never get on the wrong side of Rod Stewart. In the Patron only we engage in the debate regarding uconscious racial bias on The Traitors. CATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No Bloke Without Fire’.
