A short series of shows hosted by Karl's mate Russell Brand, aided by the Squozen one himself.

This is just a test

Series One (Dec 27-29 2005)

This was a set of shows where Karl and Russell stood in for a 6music presenter. It was on in the time between Boxing Day and New Years Eve. It included many repeated things from Karl's shows with Rick and Steve including Rock Busters, strange stories (peoples heads being cut off) Etc. More details to follow.


Series Two (April 9th 2006 - ??)

The BBC took well to Russell's and Karl's "Stand-in" shows so they gave them their own weekly show on Sundays at 10am - 1pm starting April 9th 2006 replacing Liz Kershaw's weekly show. As before this these shows are very similar to the XFM shows/Podcasts but you feel you are getting a more human, less lightly exaggerated Karl Pilkington.


Well they say good things come in small packages but this was not one of them, it was short-lived, lasting for just one week as a Brand-Pilkington collaboration before Brand allegadly made a comment about Karl's relationship leading to Karl quitting the show as a host. It is thought that he went on to produce the second show in the series without making an appearance on-air, but it is not yet known what the current situation is.
