The Jon Richardson Show was a weekly radio show on BBC 6 Music, which was created due to the departure of Russell Howard from The Russell Howard Show, which Jon Richardson co-hosted with Russell. The show was broadcast on Sundays from 10 am to 1 pm. It was co-hosted by Matt ("Fordie") Forde, who usually joined Jon at 12 noon.

On Sunday 7 February 2010, Richardson announced that after three and a half years on 6 Music, he would be leaving the station after the 7 March show. He said he didn't want "to get typecast as a DJ", as he is a comic. He went on to state "I've loved doing it, so I'd love to do more radio at some point", but after he has asserted himself further as a stand-up comic.

On Sunday 7 March 2010, the last show aired.
