S1 EP6: Geoff Norcott

Tim talks to comedian, writer and political commentator Geoff Norcott about his journey into comedy, his creative process and what he learned about his own creativity during his time working in the relentlessly demanding environment of TV comedy Writers Rooms. Geoff talks about getting his first laughs as Cowboy Geoff from Essex, about his need to get pen on paper as quickly as possible, and how he found himself becoming a vocal advocate for men's mental health.
