Ever heard of the Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy? Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency? Last Chance to See? All hugely successful and influential works by the legendary author, futurist, environmental campaigner and procrastinator Douglas Adams. In this episode award winning broadcaster Rob Smith chats with Sophie Astin, who was PA to Douglas Adams for over 5 years, until his tragic, sudden, unexpected death at the age of just 49 from a massive heart attack in 2001. This is the first time Sophie has spoken publicly about her time spent working closely with the author, and how difficult it was to cope with suddenly losing not only a close friend - but also her boss, and her job.

The conversation ranges through some very heavy name dropping ( Muhammad Ali, Stephen Fry, Salman Rushdie, John Cleese...) dealing with loss, starting a business, and career advice for teenagers. Love is all you need.
