Following the investigation by The Sunday Times, The Times and Channel 4's Dispatches programme into Brand's alleged behaviour, published earlier this month, Olivia says she tracked down a recording of the programme.

The episode, which aired on 21 June, 2008, features this exchange between Brand and Matt Morgan.

This exchange on The Russell Brand Show was recorded minutes after the incident

Morgan: It's been 25 minutes since he showed his willy to a lady.

Brand: (Laughing) Very easy to judge! Very easy to judge!

Morgan: The receptionist…

Brand: (Laughing) Look…

Morgan: Receive this!

Morgan adds: "He got told off for ringing a bell, minutes later he's showing his willy." Brand can be heard laughing in the background.

Olivia, who has never worked as a receptionist, says she felt disgusted when she heard it.

The host knew his m.o so well too. It's clearly an open secret, and a big joke to the BBC people.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

A woman has accused Russell Brand of exposing himself to her and then laughing about it minutes later on his BBC radio show.

It also raises serious questions for the BBC about how that part of the show, which was pre-recorded, was allowed to be broadcast days later.

The woman, who we are calling Olivia, worked for a media company in the same building as the BBC's Los Angeles office.

Olivia says she returned to her desk in disbelief at what had happened, and texted a BBC employee in the office about it.

"Further, the Director General has been very clear that some broadcasts from that period were, and are, inexcusable and totally unacceptable, and would never be aired today," it added.

Brand resigned from the BBC in October 2008 after he and presenter Jonathan Ross left obscene voicemail messages for Fawlty Towers actor Andrew Sachs about Brand's sexual relationship with Sachs' granddaughter.
