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

  • Fun and balanced

    I would describe myself as leaning more toward the left wing of politics. However, like Geoff, I try to listen to podcasts/views from across the political spectrum. Whilst I don’t always agree with Geoff’s own views I always respect the thoughtful arguments he makes. He has certainly made me think about issues from a different perspective. A must listen podcast.

During lock down, WMPT was recommended on podcasts and I gave it a listen and have been an avid fan since! I ... more

  • Great mix of politics and comedy

    A good mix of politics and humour, far more nuanced than many other podcasts, which to me justifies the podcast's title as I think 'most people' are.
