- The Russell Brand Show was a radio show first broadcast in 2006 on BBC Radio 6 Music and later on BBC Radio 2, TalkSport, XFM and finally Radio X in 2017. The show's host was English comedian Russell Brand, who was usually joined by co-host and long-term friend Matt Morgan, as well as the show's poet laureate, Greg "Mr Gee" Sekweyama. The show also featured regular contributions from English musician Noel Gallagher, who was described as an unofficial co-host. The Russell Brand Show was originally broadcast from 2006 to 2007 on BBC Radio 6 Music on Sundays from 10 am to 1 pm. After gaining popularity, the show moved to BBC Radio 2 in 2007, retitled Russell Brand and broadcast on Saturdays from 9 pm to 11 pm. In October 2008, Brand resigned from the BBC after a prank call on the show with comedian Jonathan Ross to Andrew Sachs resulted in over 30,000 complaints and a £150,000 fine to the BBC, ending the shows run on the BBC and effectively sending the show into a hiatus. In October 2010, nearly two years since Brand's resignation from the BBC, the renamed The Russell Brand Radio Show returned for a few weeks on Talksport, featuring Brand, Morgan and Mr Gee. (en)
