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...

THE POLITICAL CUCK-CHAIR - Feat. Seann Walsh
26/05/2026 | 42 mins.
Seann Walsh returns for this episode and had a right laugh discussing what the equivalent of Starmer's defenstration would be in comedy. We also chat about toxic/irritating fandoms and whether it's ever ok for football fans to do the 'electric slide'. In the Patron only Seann delivers an EPIC 'Death story' for the ages.

BREAKING NEWS - Dirty Russian Oil
21/05/2026 | 39 mins.
This week was an interesting one for Keir Starmer as he had to get used to his place on the political cuck-chair, whilst also fielding good news on inflation at the same time as dodgy news around Russian oil. Wes Streeting is campaigning hard and seems to be one of those rejoiners who thinks the EU still has that magic wand. There's also discussion of Rachel Reeve's run-in with a white van man and Robert Jenrick getting a drive-by off a Lib Dem.

LABOUR CIVIL WAR - Feat. Ian Moore
19/05/2026 | 46 mins.
Our man in France Ian Moore makes a welcome return to get me out of my echo-chamber. We discuss whether Starmer was betrayed by his colleagues or just a bit crap. We also chat about Andy Burnham's belief that poverty only exists in the North of England. We then ask if high speed 4G heralded a decline in birth-rates. In the Patron only section we discuss the Nineties and whether nostalgia for that era is out of hand.

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*
