Stand-up comedian, political pundit, and podcast host Geoff Norcott joins Paul Boross to discuss the intersection of humour and politics.  He shares his insights on the expectations of audiences and how comedy can bring people together regardless of their political party. 

“It’s good to acknowledge the funny thought about you that they (the audience) may have had. It is a legitimate comedic device of walking out and addressing what people's first thought about you might be. It clears the elephant in the room, and it also shows them that you know what you're doing.” 

Hear Geoff Norcott discuss the comedy on both sides of the political aisle and provide his thoughts on what makes politicians truly likeable. Learn how humour can help humans combat the division that comes with our modern-day politics only on The Humourology Podcast.
