I miss him. My mother actually got to meet him briefly at Studio 54 once. This was just around the time when he was a rising star in Mork & Mindy. Apparently he was a very nice and polite guy.

[@nicoles7800]

Very generous of Bobcat to share his memories of Robin. They were, infact, best of friends & I feel his discussion was very respectful. Robin Williams had a very lonely, isolated childhood. His Father was GM of the Ford Motor co., & was rarely home. Williams stated that when his father was around, Robin was afraid of him. They were a wealthy family. His mother did not work, she was a ' socialite' & Narcissistic. He was bought up by a beloved Nanny. He was sent to private schools & was bullied mercilessly by his peers. He developed many of his personas & voices, playing for years, alone in the Attic with his tin soldiers. The only way he was able to gain his mother's attention was to make her laugh. He was an only child. He used cocaine & alcohol to self medicate, for quite a number of years. LBD & Parkinson's are often found later in life, & there is a link to past substance abuse. He was a highly sensitive soul & a genius. Anyone who was truly friends with him, & most who worked with him said he was the kindest person they had ever known. A giver, not a taker. Devestating to see the destruction of such a beautiful human being. His eyes haunted me, as they were filled with sorrow along with the joy he created. Vale Robin.

[@trainguy1017]

I lost my mom to dementia Jan. '19. The worst part wasn't when she physically died. That was actually a relief that her physical suffering was over. The worst was watching the person that she was slowly fade away. The day she died, the chaplain at their retirement home was talking to my brother and I, and told us that it was okay to mourn her loss. My brother looked him in the eye and told him that we had already been mourning her loss as the woman that we knew as Mom had died years before and this was just the physical shell that was left. Sadly we lost my father 15 months later. She died 3 months before their 59th anniversary and I don't think he ever really recovered from that.

[@jamietodd2560]

Less-successful people say, "Too much success is dangerous. Just look at what happened to [Prince, Robin Williams, etc.] But I'm still here, so I must be living right." Speaking ill of the dead gives people a sneaky way to speak well of themselves. Bobcat is a good friend sticking up for Robin.

"He thought there were people INSIDE the TV." Reminds me of people who, when telephones were first invented, wondered how they fit tiny people inside the devices to talk, and why it sounded like people they knew. You sometimes see this as jokes in TV shows and movies during older times, but it was a very real phenomenon.

Bobcat made a very good film called 'World's Greatest Dad' starring Robin as a teacher whose snotty teenage son accidentally commits suicide by autoerotic asphyxiation, and instead of being honest about the difficult relationship they had, the teacher attributes his own writings to his deceased son and becomes famous for it.

I’m here because of comedians in cars. This is the guy Seinfeld was talking trash about. They bleeped out his name but this is the guy

i lived with my grandmother for 4 years while she slowly mentally declined due to dementia. the day she died was both the saddest and most relieving moment of my life. by far the most unpleasant thing i could think to wish on someone or their family. if you haven't seen it yourself you honestly can't even imagine how soul-wrenching it is to experience first hand. you're just standing by, watching this person you love more than anything else in the world disappear before your eyes. it's slow and miserable and scary and makes you feel like you have no control over anything. i'm so happy Robin was able to provide so much value to this world in his short life, but it pains me so much to imagine what he was feeling for those last few years. he will be sorely missed.

Watch Koko The Gorilla when she learned of Robin Williams death. They were best friends. Koko learned to communicate with humans thru sign language for the deaf. You can watch on KZbin.

Stop being divided people. Remember all divides are illusions. Black White, Christian Muslim, Religious Atheist, Right Wing Left Wing. Whatever "category" society puts you in. Don't allow it. On a whole we are all humanity, we are all earthlings. The minute we realize we are all being lied to and divided by the same group that wants to take over this world. That's when we start to take our freedoms back. We deep down have the power to change things. Only illusions in the Mainstream cabal funded media keeps us apart, they create the problem, we react and then they give a solution. Always more control for them.

If only muslims thought the same way, instead of preaching genocidal hatred.

Willy Lamb Theres 1.5 billion of them so if 25% of them are radical as fuck, and yes that is a realistic estimate, if not higher, thats still 375 million retards willing to blow themselves up and take as many non believers with them as possible. I live in Europe and these people arent funny anymore and I think we get to draw a line at a certain amount of terrorist bullshit.

[@samhutchinson2268]

+barry jwz I get your point but their is many religions that preach evil, Christianity allowed slavery and considered other groups of people a sub species The problems with Racial Divide and Religion its all Evil

[@WilliamWaugh1]

Your statistics are based on mainstream propaganda Barry

Joe is a stand up good guy. Whom is the best interviewer of today. Who else could do 2-3 hours with a guest and still have the public wanting more.

[@timandshannon03]

My Ex-Father In-law has Lewy Body and it has destroyed him. He was Diagnosed after Robin's Diagnosis and watching a man who had such an influence on my life, deteriorate to the point of being a shell of his former self, I understand Robin's decision. Terrible disease.

[@dontbefatuousjeffrey2494]

I am so sorry to hear this, +Tim. I hope he finds peace soon. I nursed my mother through her own degeneration and would not wish it on anyone.

[@timandshannon03]

He passed away this last Monday. The viewing is today and funeral is Wednesday. Funny how this popped up. Thank you.

[@Akira-ue2jw]

@@timandshannon03 I know it's been two years, but I hope you and your family are doing okay. My condolences.

[@roosterdro2146]

My favorite movie was Flubber when I was a kid. My parents took me to watch it in the theater. I was really sad when I heard of his depression and how he lost his battle. A great man who made a lot of people smile from all age ranges. Hug and cherish your loved ones and ask if they’re okay.

[@Abr022575]

Did not know Bob was such a nice guy lol

[@Gethsemanes]

It took me along time to come to terms with Robin's passing. I loved him, he brought me up when I was low, he made me question when I'd stopped. He reminded I wasnt alone about seeing the absurdity of life and finding the humour in it all. I miss you Robin and I'll be grateful till I stop. X

Imagine Kurt Cobain Hangin out Bobcat Goldthwait. MY MIND IS BLOWN!!!

[@BobbyTheBear]

Bobcat is a great human being.

[@VictorAntonioLive]

Movie was just released on DLB, "Robin's Wish"

[@adspur]

Thank you Bobcat for sharing.Don’t apologize for we all loved Robin too.So glad you two were the best of buds.

[@Halffullofjuice]

Death to Smoochy. One of my favourites. RIP RW.

[@garretamiller]

Thanks for this clip.

[@hawaiidispenser]

Wow, Bobcat and Robin really were best buds. Do a image search... they went everywhere together.

kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6W5qnakbd-DsLc Sorry I've come so late to the party, but this interview was so delightful

[@neurom.d.6587]

Thank you for putting this out there. It is not talked about, aside from in very obvious, advanced stages, and (usually) only in a clinical setting.

[@Graftanker98]

Robin Williams gave his time and probably his health in support of the military. Rest in peace. Victim of that disease.

[@dontbefatuousjeffrey2494]

wasn't he just so giving there, though? He just took on that role after the massive success of Good Morning Vietnam. Such a tender-hearted soul. RIP.

[@jmshaw357]

You creeps make me want to puke! RW was a HUGE leftist, he hated the US, its military, anything that had to do with traditional values. To say he loved the military or that he gave up his health in support of the military makes me gag. It's a damned lie.

[@dontbefatuousjeffrey2494]

time.com/3103930/robin-williams-military-uso/ hope that helps clarify a little for you +jmshaw357

[@Alex-uy8zx]

Great discussion and wonderful of Bob to share so much. I’m not into celebrity culture but there was something so terribly awful about losing Robin, maybe because he seemed like a sincere and good person.
