The smooth voiced legend Dom Frisby returns to discuss Andy Burnham possibly winning a group stage game and getting straight into the World Cup final. We also discuss Keir's social media policy: concerned dad or PM on his way out looking for a legacy. In the Patron we have a very interesting chat about Elon becoming a millionaire plus how Kim Kong Un could end up dating Ursula Von Der Leyen.

BREAKING NEWS - Starmer Starts World Cup Without Defence
12/06/2026 | 33 mins.
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 have a new PM next week. Elsewhere I thank Ben Stokes for generating interest in cricket and there's some gold old fashioned woke nonsense from Threads.

STARMER SAYS NO TO NUDES - Feat. Jacob Hawley
09/06/2026 | 48 mins.
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 claiming that being a billionaire is wrong but being a half-billionaire is ok. In the Patron only section we list all the reasons the World Cup is going to be rubbish.

BREAKING NEWS - The Murder of Henry Nowak
03/06/2026 | 33 mins.
I don't often record another episode so shortly after the main show, but like many of you I'd imagine I was so moved by Henry Nowak's dad and his response to the sentencing of his son's murderer, plus all the ways Henry was let down by the police. There was also the further release of more Mandelson files, but these were more about internal Labour Party squabbles, though some which were pretty salacious...

STURGEON'S FISHY TALE - Feat. Jon Kogan
02/06/2026 | 46 mins.
Jon Kogan makes a welcome debut to WMPT this week. Jon works with a lot of guys on the 'dark side' of comedy and is also a lovely bloke. We got into the whiff about Nicola 'I'm not a victim' Sturgeon's tale of victimhood. We also briefly consider whether anyone will let Starmer speak in public again. Then it's onto discussing falling birth-rates, which ends up in a jaw-dropping revelation about Japanese game shows. In the Patron only section, we discuss exactly what Kemi Badenoch's 'Five C's' might be...

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*
