BREAKING NEWS #32 - Little Keir's Trip to America

BREAKING NEWS #32 - Little Keir's Trip to America

Author: Geoff Norcott February 28, 2025 Duration: 27:27
So much to pick on from little Keir's trip to see big Donald. Broadly speaking a success, but is it more because of what didn't go wrong than what went right? We look at all the important moments, but also the silly ones too - like Trump praising Keir's speech. WTF??

Geoff Norcott operates in a comedy world that often leans one way, but he brings a different, grounded perspective to the table. His What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott podcast is built on the idea that ordinary people have nuanced views on the social and political issues dominating the headlines. Each episode digs into those contentious topics with a blend of honesty and blunt humour, aiming for insight without unnecessary vitriol. You'll hear Geoff's own take, shaped by his experience as a right-leaning stand-up in a predominantly left-field industry, but the conversations truly come alive with guests from across the entire social and political spectrum. Regular contributors like Romesh Ranganathan, Katherine Ryan, Jonathan Pie, Andrew Doyle, and David Baddiel ensure no single viewpoint dominates the chat. The result is a surprisingly balanced and consistently funny exploration of what people really believe, away from the echo chambers. Tuning into this podcast means getting a candid, comedic audit of modern Britain, where disagreement is allowed and laughter is the constant.
