Even if you don't recognise his face, you'll probably recognise James Cooper's voice from the hit podcast My Dad Wrote a Porno which he co-hosts with his friends Jamie Morton and Alice Levine.

In the podcast, James and his co-hosts read through chapters of Jamie's Dad's self-published erotic fiction. Oh...by the way, Jamie's dad writes under the pen name Rocky Flintstone, and his books feature hilariously long titles such as "Belinda Blinked; 1 A modern story of sex, erotica and passion. How the sexiest sales girl in business earns her huge bonus by being the best at removing her high heels". If you aren't familiar with the podcast, you should definitely give it a listen.

But outside of the podcast you may be wondering who James Cooper is? What else has he done? .... And what does he look like?
