About this listen
 Why did Bob Mortimer never speak to Damon Albarn again? In this episode of The Romesh Ranganathan Show, Romesh is joined by comedian, writer and national treasure Bob Mortimer, ahead of his new novel Michael. They talk about how Bob writes a book without a plan, the surprising second series of Last One Laughing, and why Gone Fishing has become so much more than two men by a river. There’s also a heated cats vs dogs debate, a very particular opinion on lard, and a story about a pair of stolen glasses that Bob clearly hasn’t recovered from. A Ranga Bee Production.
