episode 25: 24. Jon Richardson
Russell and Jon are reunited from their time years ago hosting BBC Radio 6 Music shows together and as you might expect it’s a great episode.
Jon and Russell disagree about the need to rehabilitate a happy old woman, Jon waxes lyrical about a wild-west themed pub. He then praises a man who threatened a crowd with a hand grenade.
It’s a lot of fun and very much worth your time.
Jon is one of the patrons of The Children’s Hospital Charity, which works bloody hard raising money to provide better care and conditions for the kids at Sheffield Children’s Hospital. As far as causes go it’s about as good as it gets.
They're currently trying to raise £2 million to build a new research and technology centre.

Russell is off next on the European leg of his tour, wearing a very fetching matching bobble hat and gloves because he’s off up to the far North! Scandinavians, this is your time. Check out what country he’s in, and what theatre then get yourselves some tickets because this show is lit. (I don’t know the Danish for lit).
