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, Katherin... more

  • Excellent podcast

    I’ve listened to this podcast for many years now. I love Geoff’s approach to politics - and his views usually align with mine. Worth listening for his Keir Starmer impersonation alone!!!

  • Brilliant current affairs and modern life comedy podcast

    Geoff Norcott must be one of the hardest working comedians in Britain. How he manages to put out these high quality broadcasts twice a week, roam around the country trying to make people laugh in his shows, and make appearances on broadcast media is beyond me. I usually require a recovery nap just going into town for a bargain coffee and back again.

  • If you haven’t tried this - do it, you won’t be disappointed

    Geoff Norcott is such an antidote to ‘group think’, which is ironic given the title. So worth listening to.

  • Potentially the best podcast covering both the politics and comedy bases (…apart from Mark Steel’s)

    WMPT hasn’t dissuaded me from my loony lefty ways, but it has definitely entertained me and broadened my perspective. I used to work in the comedy industry and saw Geoff perform dozens of times. He’s a consummate professional, a lovely bloke and genuinely hilarious.
