After a brief interlude of non govt news, Starmer is back in the doo-doo as his defence secretary's shock resignation. I also wonder where the hell Rachel Reeves gets her confidence and why no-one's that interested in that fact we might effectively h... more
I'm back from Ibiza and Stevenage's own Jacob Hawley joins me to look at Starmer's new policy on social media (and whether clinging on to power is the first impressive thing he's done). We then talk about the increasingly ridiculous Lewis Hamilton cl... more

Great to see you getting a call back on RFR this week in reference to the passing of actor Michael Pennington who played commander Moff Jerjarrod in the Return of the Jedi. Came across you first on RFR and as a 48 year old, U2 fan, veteran of several trips to Ibiza, Cricket lover, teacher with a son called Seb … it’s fair to say I thoroughly enjoyed the episode, and have re listened to your chat with Billy Mac and Jason Swank 👍

Over the last few months, What Most People Think has become one of my regular listens that I genuinely look forward to. Geoff manages to be funny, self-aware, and politically opinionated without sounding permanently angry, which is rarer than it should be. He also has a surprisingl... more

Geoff Norcott’s What Most People Think is what happens when someone says the things you’re thinking—but actually makes them funny.
Sharp, honest, and never preachy. Great guests, strong impressions, and just enough cricket chat to feel like a proper British podcast.
Only gripe: the Yorkshire accent. Effort noted… accuracy pending.
Brilliant listen.
