Summary

Me and Marcus Brigstocke have had a couple of Twitter skirmishes over the years. So after the most recent one I thought 'why not take it to a podcast' like real men. We ask challenging questions. It's political, sometimes intense, sometimes a laugh. I'm really glad we had this chat.

There's also the usual bollocks at the beginning an end, from why Henry Cavil is a d**k and who would've won in a fight between Eric Pickles and John Major.

0:11.0	Hello and welcome to episode 47 of What Most People Think.
0:17.3	This episode is coming out on Friday, the what is it? What's it going to be? Friday,
0:21.9	the 23rd of July, isn't it? This is the day. This is the mask day. Are you going to, are you a great
0:27.6	human being? Are you going to wear the masks in shops? Because obviously, you know, we have this new
0:31.9	binary line of goodies and baddies. If you wear the masks, you're a great person. If you
0:36.6	don't wear them,
0:43.3	you wish to cause a pandemic chaos around the globe. So I don't know, you know what I don't know about the mask thing is? Why isn't it possible to sort of do both, right? Why does everything
0:47.6	have to be so fucking ideological now? Like, why can't I wear the mask grudgingly and just bitch
0:53.8	about it the whole time?
0:55.3	What is that, you know, it's not, it's not like religion or politics. You don't have to have an ideologically bedded in position on that. I don't like wearing them. I want to talk about it. Everyone in normal society moans about wearing the mask. The very best you get off a normal person is worse pain in the ass, isn't it?
0:51.9	But I'll do it because I have to, or because
0:53.9	it helps. Only on social media. moans about wearing them. The very best you get off a normal person is, well, it's a pain in the ass, isn't it?
1:11.2	But I'll do it because I have to, or because it helps. Only on social media could people be wearing them proudly and posting shots of them like their fucking Gandhi. And I've been reassured, of course, by younger people that, you know, you can do a lot. You can do a lot of the eyes, Jeff. I'm like, you're fucking, you know, like, great.
1:27.9	If I'm communicating exclusively with people that express surprise, then, then fantastic. And even then what if they've, I don't know, had some lockdown Botox or something, then I'm pissing in the wind, aren't I? So I am, I'm not going to accept this thing where people say, God, I've really launched into it this week,
1:24.9	but where people say,
1:25.9	just shut up and wear the mask.
1:27.5	You know, these are a lot of people that predominantly seem to me to be remainers anyway. So the irony of them saying that is pretty rich, isn't it? You know, it's sort of like the PPE equivalent of you lost, get over it. That's what they're saying, that we want on this one, just wear the mask.
2:02.1	I'm going, no what, no, I'm not.
1:59.0	I'm going to whine about it, just like you bitched around the referendum for years. I mean, you might not be out of hearing me whining about it because I'll be sort of muffled, but you watch my eyebrows. Watch those brows. Anyway, welcome to what most people think.
1:59.7	I'm Jeff Norkot.
