Geoff Norcott's Working Men's Club

This week, Geoff looks at the “angry middle-aged white men” that Gary Neville identified as the source of all division within the UK. Is that fair? If so, why are they angry? And could there be both a deeper reason for their anger and also a better outlet for it? As ever, these serious points are intercut with “manly hypotheticals”, the sort of question men ask each other to avoid talking about stuff that matters, like - if you’re drinking non-alcoholic beer, are you still obliged to buy a round? This is episode 2 of Series 2 of Geoff Norcott's Working Men's Club. To hear more from this series, search "Stand-Up Specials" on BBC Sounds. Written and presented by Geoff Norcott Recorded by Sean Kerwin Production manager: Dawn Williams Executive producer: Caroline Raphael Producer: Ed Morrish A Pier production for BBC Radio 4
