Summary

The debut release from Britain’s hottest breakthrough comedy star.

Having stormed shows such as Have I Got News for You (BBC1), Live At The Apollo (BBC1), Michael McIntyre’s Comedy Road Show (BBC1) and now as the new host of Channel 4’s Stand Up for the Week and team captain on 8 out of 10 Cats, the brilliantly funny Jon Richardson is the UK’s rising comedy star to watch out for! Discussing the everyday items that have a profound effect on his outlook, Funny Magnet is Jon’s new hilarious sell-out show that will be touring the UK in 2012 and recorded for his highly anticipated debut release.

Sublimely brilliant, stunning.... He is a comic right on the verge of greatness. If you haven't seen him yet get your finger out and sort it.

Love Jon Richardson!

This is an earlier recording but still very funny. His humour really resonates with me, as a fellow pedant and slight OCDer. Definitely worth a listen!

Classic comedy

This is a recording of live stand-up comedy and I was laughing out loud. So easy to listen to in the car as you don't need to concentrate on it too much. It's light enough for some bedtime listening too. Thoroughly enjoyed it, I've listened to it three times already!

A man after my own heart!

This man cracks me up!
Love him on tv but never heard his standup before … very different and very funny.
I could listen to him for hours - in fact, I’m going to find more of his standup.
His stories are great, his voices are hilarious and he gets distracted with things along the way… and his peeves are similar to mine which really made me laugh!
Brilliant listen 🎤
Side note: also great in his wife Lucy’s book.

Very funny!

A great live show. Laughed out loud the whole way through which was weird for everyone else on the train...

Dated but good

A good listen. Vintage Jon. I like Jon Richardson and this was the kind of thing I expected. Good and no surprises.
