Was delighted to welcome back the brilliant Matt Forde to lock horns over Labour's start to government. Matt also has some wise words about the rise of Reform and why some football fans see their team like the local council. And of course I shamelessly ask him to do some impressions.

BREAKING NEWS #25 - Starmer's Six Political Gallstones
A busy week which fully warranted an extra episode. Not just me hob-sobbing with the political elites or having my whole career defined by a tweet about Paddington Bear, but Keir Starmer also laid out his six political milestones. At a film studio, but with all the panache of Mr Bean.

BIT OF A GREGG WALLACE with Alun Cochrane
Was delighted to have the very funny Alun Cochrane back on the show. As well some talk about horror-show Christmas gigs we reflected on the assisted dying debate, the transport secretary getting thrown under a bus and whether being a bit 'Gregg Wallace' is now officially a thing.

HAVE A DAY OFF ELON with Jacob Hawley
A rare in-person record this week as myself and Jacob Hawley boshed a coffee each and probably spoke too fast. We discussed the frivolous e-petition, but also the hypocrisy of some Remoaners. We also got annoyed with Elon for his constant obsession with Britain and reflected on whether 'Bert' is a weird name for a storm.

BREAKING NEWS #24 - STARMFARMHARM (also Feat. The Man Whisperer)
Had to crack out another episode this week to deal with the Farmer protests, and an interesting clash at PMQs. Then - in the week of International Men's Day - The Man Whisperer rejoins us to chat about the big issues facing blokes and young men in particular (I also make some immature jokes about porn).

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, Katherine Ryan, Andrew Doyle, David Baddiel, Konstantin Kisin, Owen Jones and many more. Geoff has appeared on Live at the Apollo, Backstage with Katherine Ryan, Would I lie to You? Have I Got News For You? The Last Leg, Mash Report, Question Time, Mock the Week and pops up frequently on UK political debate programmes. Geoff's book 'Where Did I Go Right?' came out in 2021 and top the political comedy best-seller list on multiple occasions. Geoff also won an operational medal for his five tours performing to British troops in Afghanistan. "One of our most refreshingly funny comedians of any stripe." - Sunday Times "A Right laugh." - The Guardian*
