The Russell Howard Show

The Russell Howard Show

The Russell Howard and Jon Richardson Show was a UK radio show on digital station BBC 6 Music that aired from 10.00am - 1.00pm on Sundays. It was presented by comedians Russell Howard and Jon Richardson. It follows the two from when they shared a flat, to when Jon purchased a house and moved out.

The two began hosting the show on 12 November 2006, taking over the slot vacated by comedian Russell Brand when he moved to Radio 2 on Saturday nights. Originally the show also featured the presenters' friend and fellow comedian Sam Thomas, who left in early 2007, occasionally appearing thereafter in recorded skits.

The show was replaced by The Jon Richardson Show, which ended on 7 March 2010.
