What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott

I brought in the big gun Iain to discuss a huuuuuge (copyright Donald Trump) week for UK and US politics. First we discuss the budget and Labour's inability to define working people or exactly who will benefit in the long run. After that we look at Kemi as the likely next Tory leader. Then it's over the pond to look at the final stages of the Presidential race and why maybe comedians aren't the best booking.  Order the PAPERBACK EDITION of my book: https://www.amazon.co.uk/British-Bloke-Decoded-Everything-explained/dp/1800961308/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= JOIN the Podcast Patreon and receive each episode early, AD-FREE & with bonus content https://www.patreon.com/geoffnorcott?fan_landing=true  Join my MAILING LIST for priority Tour booking & special offers https://signup.ymlp.com/xgyueuwbgmgb Watch my COMEDY SPECIAL on YouTube https://youtu.be/YaxhuZGtDLs  Learn more about your ad choices.

Big old week of news so I cast my eye back on Donald taking on the Labour Party while the same boring old celebs trot out for Kamala. I also ask if Tucker Carlson is a bit weird. Then there's Wes Streeting's attempts to ask for suggestions to make the NHS better. I mainly advocate hot nurses.  Order the PAPERBACK EDITION of my book: https://www.amazon.co.uk/British-Bloke-Decoded-Everything-explained/dp/1800961308/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= JOIN the Podcast Patreon and receive each episode early, AD-FREE & with bonus content https://www.patreon.com/geoffnorcott?fan_landing=true  Join my MAILING LIST for priority Tour booking & special offers https://signup.ymlp.com/xgyueuwbgmgb Watch my COMEDY SPECIAL on YouTube https://youtu.be/YaxhuZGtDLs  Learn more about your ad choices.

Very funny episode this week as Baroness Hazarika gets lucky to join me in the first week for a while where Labour haven't been s***ing the bed. We talk about the fights they're willing to have with the Right and Left in the upcoming budget. We also talk male objectification and whether MSM have a hypocritical blind-spot. In the Patreon only section we talk about why Trump flipping burgers is a genius move.  Order the PAPERBACK EDITION of my book: https://www.amazon.co.uk/British-Bloke-Decoded-Everything-explained/dp/1800961308/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= JOIN the Podcast Patreon and receive each episode early, AD-FREE & with bonus content https://www.patreon.com/geoffnorcott?fan_landing=true  Join my MAILING LIST for priority Tour booking & special offers https://signup.ymlp.com/xgyueuwbgmgb Watch my COMEDY SPECIAL on YouTube https://youtu.be/YaxhuZGtDLs  Learn more about your ad choices.

I was delighted to have big time Konstantin Kisin back on the show this week. We both worried that Labour might say they're big business while simultaneously scaring the crap out of investors. We also spoke about why Elon was not allowed to Britain but might be allowed into space.

Delighted to welcome the most Italian sounding person of all time to this week's podcast. Vittorio had some strong opinions about Phillip Schofield and also a stunning theory as to Sue Grey's murky past. We also discuss offence in comedy and why Vittorio had one of his shows cancelled for a joke about Valentine's cards.

I'm not sure there's ever been so much to cover from a three day period. From Starmer's 6k refund, to Lord Alli's investigation, giving away the Chagos Islands, a drop in investment and private school numbers.....the Labour Party have been BUSY. Great for my podcast but maybe not the country.  Order the PAPERBACK EDITION of my book: https://www.amazon.co.uk/British-Bloke-Decoded-Everything-explained/dp/1800961308/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= JOIN the Podcast Patreon and receive each episode early, AD-FREE & with bonus content https://www.patreon.com/geoffnorcott?fan_landing=true  Join my MAILING LIST for priority Tour booking & special offers https://signup.ymlp.com/xgyueuwbgmgb Watch my COMEDY SPECIAL on YouTube https://youtu.be/YaxhuZGtDLs  Learn more about your ad choices.

This week I had the lovely Erich Mcilroy back on the show. Erich is fully plotted up the US election and which way the wind is blowing over the pond. But before that we spoke about the weirdness of this year's Tory party conference and some of the more arresting statements by Kemi Badenoch and Jenrick Lamar.

100% had to do a Breaking News this week after Starmer's sausage accidentally slipped out. But it's not just the silly stuff, Labour have serious political issues unravelling and not a lot to say about it. We also look ahead to the Tory conference and the concept of 'having a quiet one'. Very quiet.  Order the PAPERBACK EDITION of my book: https://www.amazon.co.uk/British-Bloke-Decoded-Everything-explained/dp/1800961308/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= JOIN the Podcast Patreon and receive each episode early, AD-FREE & with bonus content https://www.patreon.com/geoffnorcott?fan_landing=true  Join my MAILING LIST for priority Tour booking & special offers https://signup.ymlp.com/xgyueuwbgmgb Watch my COMEDY SPECIAL on YouTube https://youtu.be/YaxhuZGtDLs  Learn more about your ad choices.

This week the very funny Ria Lina joins me to cast our eye over yet more embarrassment for the Labour Party. We also discuss the charges against P Diddy and consider whether celebrity men are just plain wronguns. In the Patreon only I fully support Amazon's call to end WFH and drift into some very right wing views about workplace rights.  Order the PAPERBACK EDITION of my book: https://www.amazon.co.uk/British-Bloke-Decoded-Everything-explained/dp/1800961308/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= JOIN the Podcast Patreon and receive each episode early, AD-FREE & with bonus content https://www.patreon.com/geoffnorcott?fan_landing=true  Join my MAILING LIST for priority Tour booking & special offers https://signup.ymlp.com/xgyueuwbgmgb Watch my COMEDY SPECIAL on YouTube https://youtu.be/YaxhuZGtDLs  Learn more about your ad choices.

Podcast favourite Dom Frisby rejoins this week as we ponder Starmer selling out for far too little money. We also react to another botched attempt on Donald Trump and ask how someone with blue hair could possibly own a gun. In the Patreon only I go on a bit of a rant about how Huw Edwards could escape jail time.  Order the PAPERBACK EDITION of my book: https://www.amazon.co.uk/British-Bloke-Decoded-Everything-explained/dp/1800961308/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= JOIN the Podcast Patreon and receive each episode early, AD-FREE & with bonus content https://www.patreon.com/geoffnorcott?fan_landing=true  Join my MAILING LIST for priority Tour booking & special offers https://signup.ymlp.com/xgyueuwbgmgb BOOK Tickets for Edinburgh Fringe run:  https://www.livenation.co.uk/artist-geoff-norcott-1252793  Watch my COMEDY SPECIAL on YouTube https://youtu.be/YaxhuZGtDLs  Learn more about your ad choices.

Had to do another episode this week, following the US Presidential Debate and Donald Trump emerging as the guardian of canines and felines. But I ask whether American voters will be swayed by the nonsense? I also look at Labour's junk food ban and wonder why we can't hold people to account for eating too much.

Marcus returns this week (and there's a bombshell reveal at the end as to his current position on Brexit). We talk about Labour's terrible handling of the Winter Fuel allowance changes and whether Ed Davey (Ed Samey anyone?) provides meaningful opposition. We also discuss the revolutionary idea that parents are responsible for d**khead kids.

Triggernometry's Francis Foster joins me this week as we bicker (flirt?) our way through a torrid week for Labour. We ask whether the public are buying all of Starmer's 'black holes'. We also discuss the Oasis ticket debacle and conclude that old people are tired and young people don't like music. Francis also informs me of dark forces within the comedy industry trying to cancel his gigs...

Tom Walker returns this week and I gleefully enjoyed putting questions to him about recent cronyism in the Labour government. We also explored how left-wing comics like him are adapting to Labour being in charge and I got very upset about the price of poppadoms with pickle.  Order the PAPERBACK EDITION of my book: https://www.amazon.co.uk/British-Bloke-Decoded-Everything-explained/dp/1800961308/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= JOIN the Podcast Patreon and receive each episode early, AD-FREE & with bonus content https://www.patreon.com/geoffnorcott?fan_landing=true  Join my MAILING LIST for priority Tour booking & special offers https://signup.ymlp.com/xgyueuwbgmgb Watch my COMEDY SPECIAL on YouTube https://youtu.be/YaxhuZGtDLs  Learn more about your ad choices.

I'm up at the Edinburgh Fringe but felt like I had to respond to the glitzy luvvie fest that was the US Democratic Committee. Lots of rappers and jokes and about Donald Trump's penis, but did Kamala deliver the goods or just more stuff for people to meme in years to come? Also I tear into a hilariously woke announcement from the head of the Edinburgh Fringe.  Order the PAPERBACK EDITION of my book: https://www.amazon.co.uk/British-Bloke-Decoded-Everything-explained/dp/1800961308/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= JOIN the Podcast Patreon and receive each episode early, AD-FREE & with bonus content https://www.patreon.com/geoffnorcott?fan_landing=true  Join my MAILING LIST for priority Tour booking & special offers https://signup.ymlp.com/xgyueuwbgmgb BOOK Tickets for Edinburgh Fringe run:  https://www.livenation.co.uk/artist-geoff-norcott-1252793  Watch my COMEDY SPECIAL on YouTube https://youtu.be/YaxhuZGtDLs  Learn more about your ad choices.

Simon Evans re-joins this week on brilliant comic & analytical form. We discuss the worrying authoritarian tendencies being show by Labour (and whether you can impersonate Angela Rayner just by singing Oasis lyrics). We also consider the news that Gen Z are reverting back to old hobbies like weaving and knitting (maybe to save money?). In the Patreon only we discuss the case of a woman arrested for silently praying (you can't think anything these days).  Order the PAPERBACK EDITION of my book: https://www.amazon.co.uk/British-Bloke-Decoded-Everything-explained/dp/1800961308/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= JOIN the Podcast Patreon and receive each episode early, AD-FREE & with bonus content https://www.patreon.com/geoffnorcott?fan_landing=true  Join my MAILING LIST for priority Tour booking & special offers https://signup.ymlp.com/xgyueuwbgmgb BOOK Tickets for Edinburgh Fringe run:  https://www.livenation.co.uk/artist-geoff-norcott-1252793  Watch my COMEDY SPECIAL on YouTube https://youtu.be/YaxhuZGtDLs  Learn more about your ad choices.

This week Ian Stone joins me from the Fringe. We talk about everything from the riots to the Tory leadership race (someone has to) and whether Trump's dentures will last the pace. There's also some men's mental health chat, where me and Stoney realise despite all our big talk we never 'check in' on eachother. In the Patreon only section we put our battlefield knowledge to the test and decide that Ukraine's incursion into Russia might be good or bad.  Order the PAPERBACK EDITION of my book: https://www.amazon.co.uk/British-Bloke-Decoded-Everything-explained/dp/1800961308/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= JOIN the Podcast Patreon and receive each episode early, AD-FREE & with bonus content https://www.patreon.com/geoffnorcott?fan_landing=true  Join my MAILING LIST for priority Tour booking & special offers https://signup.ymlp.com/xgyueuwbgmgb BOOK Tickets for Edinburgh Fringe run:  https://www.livenation.co.uk/artist-geoff-norcott-1252793  Watch my COMEDY SPECIAL on YouTube https://youtu.be/YaxhuZGtDLs  Learn more about your ad choices.

With the Edinburgh Fringe in full swing I finally got one of my comedy heroes on the show. Tom Stade has been giving zero F's for as long as I remember. He doesn't set out to offend but he'll never apologise when he does.
