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 appea ...

Very funny episode this week with top stand-up Mark Nelson. We discuss Penny Mordaunt's Leadership chances, Humza Yousef looking like he regrets taking the gig and WTF is 'bread-crumbing'.

In this breaking news I mull over Jeremy Hunt's long budget with small measures. I celebrate the NI cut whilst wondering if the fuel duty cut is an ongoing feature of British public life, like the DFS sale. I also ask why - whether it's Labour or Tories - I have a fundamental need to believe the good news. Oh and there are some fat jokes too. Learn…

This week Andrew Doyle joins me to mull over George Galloway's return to politics. We also try to talk about Mary Poppins recent ratings change, but I get a bit sexually distracted. There are also stunning revelations about Andrew going to Gary Glitter concerts and me being asked to leave an assembly for laughing WHILE I WAS A TEACHER. Support the …

It's another solo ep this week (following a late guest drop-out) but that did give a chance to reflect on a rancorous week in British politics. From Labour's mafioso style 'leaning' on Lindsay Hoyle to Lee Anderson going in two footed under the Ref's nose - it's all here. I try to approach it with nuance which means I'll probably annoy everybody. P…

It seems like a lifetime since the last episode so I did a round up of all the big political news, including the Tories facing electoral wipeout, Labour voters getting a bit smug, Sadiq up to his usual tricks & a bit of baiting for the work from home crowd.

This was one of those weeks where I had to do a breaking news. From Rishi's handshake to Labour's U-turn and the advent of the PopCons (?!?) I felt like needed a catch-up / therapy.

This week I'm delighted to have the host of the News Quiz and - more importantly - the test match special stats guy, Andy Zaltzman.

After a quick chat about the readiness of the British army (or lack of it), I speak to Felicity Ward. She's a great comic and has been a keen advocate for focus on men's mental health and suicide prevention. She's also soon to star in the Aussie remake of the The Office so I thought I'd nab here before she gets too famous to talk to me. Support the…

In this end of year episode I talk about the latest outrage over Ricky Gervais's comedy and the attempts to call Noel Coward 'queer'. Then it's on to a political review of 2023 and some predictions for the election year coming up, including why Rishi may be like Rose from Titanic and how Keir might start talking about himself in the 3rd person.

The very wise Iain Dale joins me this week to deliver early end of year reports for Keir & Rishi. We talk about Keir's weird fanboying on Thatcher and how no-one 'stands up' to Rishi.

After a catch up with James Cleverley getting in a bit of bother and Patrick Vallance's definitely private diaries, I speak to 80's and 90's football legend Perry Groves. Perry is so insightful and funny talking about the cultural (and drinking) differences between now and then. We talk about everything from the notorious Arsenal 'Tuesday Club' to …

Great to have Konstantin back co-hosting, fresh from another appearance on Joe Rogan. We talk about the new 'far right' Argentine President (and his hair).

I was always going to do an extra show to mark #InternationalMensDay but I would probably have had to do one for the politics on its own. What a bizarre week, from the return of Cameron to the Labour Party rediscovering it's ability to self destruct. After that me and Kenny chat about bloke's stuff, with serious things but also some very immature c…

Geoff is joined by Marcus Brigstocke as Suella gets the sack while Dave Cameron is back.
