Russell Brand & Karl Pilkington 2005-2006 BBC 6 Music (MP3)



In December 2005, Brand co-presented three one-off radio shows for BBC 6Music with Karl Pilkington. Later in April 2006, Russell Brand was given a regular Sunday afternoon slot on the station. Karl Pilkington was advertised as being his co-host and even appeared with him on the first few shows. Karl mysteriously disappeared from the show after that, because 6Music's desire to release a downloadable podcast of the show conflicted with Karl's commitment to The Ricky Gervais Show podcast and he was replaced by Matt Morgan and Trevor Lock, who himself left the show soon after. Karl has since appeared (via the phone) on the Russell Brand Show, talking about his holiday visit to a historic resort in Lyme Regis, Dorset and his viewing of Brokeback Mountain. Brand's 6Music radio show placed as high as number two in the iTunes most-subscribed podcast chart. In November 2006, Brand's show was moved to BBC Radio 2, where it aired until October 2008 where a controversial joke sent to Andrew Sachs' answering machine caused the BBC to temporarily suspend Brand who later resigned
