Robbie Williams on Take That and strange encounters… PART 1

[@natalieeddy6382]

What a great interview. Robbie is so intelligent and real. Rob did a great job letting him talk. Perfection.

[@pauldavies6037]

What a nice chap Robbie has turned out to be I wish him well

[@TheYeetusLord]

"Getting to the top of the mountain and realising there's nothing there." That's really quite a profound way to describe his position. Great pod Rob(s)!

[@FelixUnderdog]

He's missing out the part where he was an absolute moronic wanker when he was a 'kid' and the fact that he has no talent- let alone musical talent. If you feel so bad, give one of your houses away or some money! Some people have neither or less, you cunt! You don't have depression either... it's called a conscience you fekin dumpster baby.

[@PatrickKelly-lz3pv]

top of the mountain ? that shows you what a prick Williams is, he is a pub singer who got lucky, he exposed who he really is when he thought he was the big star from Take That he thought the band would be nothing with out him, they went on to more popular with out him.

[@kathyneville9768]

❤great Netflix documentary byw, I had never know of him; so at 76 years of age, I am now a follower; loving all that comes my way.

[@rory4605]

The comic timing in the first five minutes is gold. Robbie insisting Rob puts his feet up, Rob trying to work out if anyone named Rob has a knighthood. Great chemistry.

[@razzle1964]

Not to mention Robbie’s guilty, ‘pikey’ feeling about grabbing some cardboard!😉✌️

[@bethankrzowski4553]

I saw Rob Brydon aged 11 at Edinburgh Festival, he signed a poster. He was lovely to everyone and I'll never forget it. He asked me if i was welsh because of my name and I just didnt know what to say but he was kind and funny.

[@fowchiiiliedpuppiesdied]

11? Dear God.

[@mattyt1961]

I have that popcorn machine... now if I just had the looks, the body and the talent, the money and charisma i could be Robbie Williams

[@KingRealEstate]

I stopped this video half way and binge watched The Robbie Williams 4 part series. Amazing! You are loved Robbie, thank you for taking us along on your own journey. God Bless.

[@rhysparker6504]

Watched the Netflix. Listened to this in its entirety in the car today. This felt somehow more honest. Love all the Brydon & podcasts, but this was a particular highlight

[@gonulcebeci]

Paused half way to enter this comment. What a wonderful duo to watch. They both seem relaxed, candid, easy-going which makes us feel the same way. Thank you both for such a pleasurable conversation. Two posiitve, strong souls to be taken as role models.

[@donnariahi2975]

I love Robbie Williams, have for years.

[@foxdenham]

Robbie is turning into a fine middle-aged man. Great interview Rob.

[@jazminratzlaff5357]

Love Robbie’s documentary and this podcast conversation with Rob Brydon. He has the brightest most charming eyes and smile. Love hearing him laugh/ giggles, his humour, storytelling. My fave member of Take That. ♥️❤🤍😍😘🥰🤩 🌟 ✨ 🎙️ 😆

[@tastewithjase]

Listened to the whole thing in the drive to London from N Wales today. Loved it. A really great, natural, honest chat.

[@vaidakas2684]

It's amazing!

[@fowchiiiliedpuppiesdied]

Robbie, every human being on the planet needs a sense of purpose. Every single one.

[@raymondthomadwormald9621]

What a lovely man you are Robby x

[@Thegdee]

I totally get everything Robbie is saying about the doubt in which one of you is turning up on stage, I truly believe it isn't just him who thinks that. Great interview.

[@orelanavi2706]

i love this! feels so natural, full of comedy. great questions, love robbie. and rob, pls put your feet up 😂 it's ok to do it without shoes. going to see part 2.

[@Mikey13Morales]

Feels like two close friends catching up 👌

[@ljp8947]

Robbies little giggles make me smile so much ❤

[@mikeyk212]

Robbie has a great personality. Very charismatic but still a regular lad despite all the fame.

[@italoblu]

Rob telling Robbie he should see the folly of his thinking is just about the most hilarious thing I’ve seen in months.

[@jamiedianne6778]

Honestly Robbie should have his own podcast on the regular. I for one would tune in! 🙋🏻‍♀️ Also, chill out people, do you see how clean the bottom of his trainers are? They look new. He can put them on his own couch if he wants to! 😉👍

[@mojo2679]

Robbie looking bright eyed and happpy unlike in that netflix doc where he looks crushed

[@startracker5895]

The whole documentary was a misery fest! Robbie just looking back on his life with despair. I get he had problems but surely there were good times too. I think Robbie is a half empty kind of guy. Everything is doom and gloom with him.

[@mojo2679]

@@startracker5895 agree. He made godzillions too. Factory workers would not be impressed with his woe is me attitude.

[@sabine4385]

Auch da sieht er gut aus ...robbie sieht immer git sus😂❤

[@sabine4385]

❤❤❤

[@matthewsmith1547]

The Netflix doc was a restrospective and he was reflecting on where he’s come from and how he redeemed himself. I think it was a victory story.

[@Rob1nson]

Two of the best and most authentic 👍

[@MandyMorris-yt4gy]

Robbie I will allways love you darling

[@cleoc9190]

Loved Robbie in the Netflix , never knew what he went through and the nasty newspapers , Such a talented singer I wish him well and to continue to entertain us ,he is so talented ,happy to see he has a great wife and family

[@Johnny-Joseph]

What?! The world's two greatest Roberts, so excited

[@davidpayter6622]

One of the most interesting interviews that I had ever seen fo Robbie and (I´ve seen a lot) Congrats to the Interviewer, you have done a great job!!!

[@lynshane1837]

I admire Robbie's honesty and courage. Great chat.

[@stevenausten-davies141]

Really enjoyed that, Rob 2 Robbie…. so did they!

[@ConnyRW]

I love to listen to Rob Williams 😊

[@mareavoce1272]

Oh I loved this interview! 😍 A $240 breakfast inspired him to create a hotel residency for artists in Dubai - BRILLIANT.

[@relocatetoEUROPE]

Love this conversation so real ❤

[@StephenPhayre]

Beautiful interview. Thank you Rob(bie)(s)

[@CaroleCanada]

Excellent interview. Excellent interviewer! I’m so glad I happened upon this channel.

[@merryprezzie]

absolutely love this duo

[@jengel7214]

Shout to Robbie for recognising Prince Lovesexy era as the 🐐

[@lolagil9119]

Consideró que Robbie es timido e introvertido,muy sentimental, pero cuando sale al escenario se transforma y sale el gran artista y sohuman que lleva dentro.En los 90era un niño,y ahora se ha convertido en un filosofo de su vida, Sus conciertos son espectaculares💓😘😎

[@helenabiesma5560]

great show and love the detail it addresses - so brilliant - love it

[@gardenersuze3328]

Rob ❤ and Rob ❤. Win win x

[@njparkin5894]

Great interview!

[@richjansen1293]

What a wonderful interview

[@heavymedley]

Another 10/10

[@kathyneville9768]

😅"😴😴now, go 😴😴now". 😅Love all his interviews, he so relatable and down to earth, vulnerable and great story teller. 🎶oobee do🎶I wanna he like you,🎶 great video with phillyboz.❤

[@sadras5818]

I love these two individuals

[@trevorberridge6079]

Great interview and yet another lesson in how fickle a friend fame can be. As Debbie Allen said in the Fame tv series: "You want fame? Well fame costs...". Rob, Robert and Robbie have all had to pay a price for being successful. It's good to know that h'es coping with it better these days.

[@jamesallen4050]

Mr Brydon, many years ago Robbie and I got into a fight, or two. He won both times. True story. I've never shared beyond my friend group, so this feels good.

[@sevanstephan4808]

My wife worked on a show he wrote the music for. He turned up just once, very briefly with a big entourage (publicist, hair stylist etc) stayed for 5 minutes and then disappeared . Nice enough, but not a real ordinary person as he might have you believe . Trappings of fame .

[@fantasylosopher]

So, the good thing to do here is ask why.

[@fabienc.3345]

Great interview! Thanks

[@graceygrumble]

When you go to bed and switch the lights off and you can sleep, contented - you have made it!

[@nicholasjohnson4124]

This could have turned out to be two performers navel-gazing. But it was one of the most fascinating chats about performing and fame I've heard. Nice one.

[@onlyme219]

Love Robbie, seen him live twice, yes he's cocky but can step up to the plate and perform live as a musical icon God.. Karma Killer, Phoenix from the flames, Come undone, I could go on. Yes he's been cocky but he just makes me smile, you get him or you don't, I do

[@Themedusatouch89]

This was brilliant 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@blakescrossing]

You two are gorgeous 💙 Rob: Please revisit Rob regularly. Maybe Rob can go to Rob's place next time (and remember to keep his feet off Rob's furniture).

[@grahambeyer6254]

I remember bumping into you Sir Robert Brydon on my honeymoon at the Eden project. I hope I wasnt one of those people that have a stroke when they meet you. As far as I can remember it was a pleasure. I wonder if you can remember that? Back in 2011.

[@leecorcoran6174]

Always makes me laugh when rob talks about take that and I always think that James corden went for the auditions 👍👍

[@SteveMcDonnell]

Thanks Rob x2

[@coffeeguy6673]

I wish Rob Brydon would do at least one of these meets as Uncle Bryn . Pretty please Rob, just one time to shut me up, such a big fan of you and your character in Gavin & Stacey. I for one, would love it if you did that.

[@GB_Rusty]

I'm sorry. There appears to be some mistake. This ended way too early.......oooh that was part one! Nice

[@PeppyOoze]

4:46 - lol - classic Brydon.

[@AndersWatches]

I clicked on this so fast omg

[@kathrynneely235]

I have lived in the Bahamas since 1982 - cannot sing or name one of his songs - sorry. Seems a very nice bloke enjoyed the talk with Brydon.

[@razzle1964]

Don’t be sorry & don’t worry. Not everyone can be expected to be aware of ALL artistes or all genres of music. ‘Bahamas’, eh! Nice ‘name drop’, lol. I got married there in ‘93 (Green Turtle Cay). Beautiful place. Lovely people.

[@mikekaraoke]

Surly you would know some of this songs if you heard them, they are too famous not to know. Unless you live on a dessert Island.

[@toasterboy708]

"Classic story of somebody getting to the top of the mountain and realising there's nothing there"

[@leaokeeffe797]

Try watching 'Human Remains' comedy by Rob Bryson , amazing character comedy gold!

[@cph2004]

I'm not a body language expert, but you can clearly see robbies Impostor syndrome kicking in at 13:51 he doesn't look comfortable at all.

[@Andymercer-fb8vo]

"C'mon glastobury you know this one".....yeah robbie we do,we paid £50 to see you,anychance you can sing the song yerself .....all credit to Lee Mack,soory couldnt resist

[@gav2759]

Put your foot up Rob ...the other one is already on the couch!

[@curmudgeon1933]

Why is it that in this interview both people are talking normally, and their microphones are at least a metre from them, and I can hear every word. Yet in most podcasts there seems to be a need for the speakers to have their faces obscured by huge microphones and pop filters, and the mic is mere inches from their mouths. I wonder if it's just to flex that they can afford some high-tech sound equipment? edit: Just saw the lapel mikes. lol

[@Jp67-n6b]

I saw showaddywaddy too, first concert 😂

[@5hanesBoard]

That's what you need to hear when you suffer from depression and are 49 years old: It's all down hill after 50".

[@bekindrewind9675]

At 52, I think I'm becoming wiser. Until the body or mind break down, I think it gets better.

[@JJV69]

My 50’s have been marvellous

[@MarkBond1111]

What about Bobby? We have a Robert in my family (cousin) and we call him Bobby. It's very Godfather - "Hey Bobby watch the oranges ya know? The oranges Bobby, the oranges".

[@Chriswatney]

“Getting to the top of the mountain and realising there’s nothing there…” he says, sitting in luxury, not a financial care in the world. Success that affords him the pleasure of having a family, giving them everything they want.. Completely out of touch with the struggles of the many.

[@jaredwhite9761]

What was robbies question to rob, before he went off on the shoe on sofas bit

[@Sunshinemoonstars]

8:05 😂

[@OlafProt]

Jeez Robert (Brydon, Sir) careful you dont trigger Robbie. 6:40

[@snacklofter]

👍👍 Does Rob read these comments?

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

8 dogs in another country! Yeh time to reign it in. That’s odd. Rock n Roll. Nice interview

[@stanlibuda96]

I had no idea that I actually like him

[@GavinJarvis-s7p]

What about U2 ? They're also in there eighties.

[@TechnoKid_]

But he has his shoe on the couch...🤔😂 (Robert the interviewer)

[@matthewmoggridge5221]

Er...'it's all downhill from 50'? No, it's most certainly not, you're 100% wrong. I'm 65, nearly 66. I work, there's a lot of air travel involved, loads of hotels, Houston is on the horizon, I ride a pushbike regularly, you're so wrong. Sorry, but you are. Love the Robbie interviews, by the way, and the others, all of them. Brilliant!

[@adamcarter699]

Questions putting feet up but had no problem with walking around the house in shoes...

[@TriviaChallenge]

I think half of Robbie's problems cme from being from a working class background. They really take the confidence out of you at school, quite the opposite attitude people have who went to private school.

[@arcadia1081]

Tell Robbie 70 year old Rick Wakeman was playing on stage recently and just wandered off....for a pee! :)

[@specialcircs]

What are you talking about Rob, you've got your shoe on the couch from the start!

[@DanielleA2023]

Robbie needs a Great interviewer e.g. Graham Norton because hes a Great interviewee...

[@emupudding30]

Rob is a great interviewer though

[@CaptChrispy]

Ha! Like the HULK!

[@MiaMolina9543]

The name Robbie was imposed upon him by Nigel Martin Smith.

[@finianlacy8827]

RW NEEDS A MATE !

[@ThatCoalSoul]

3:04 Sir Robert Charlton, late great football legend. 100th comment.

[@finianlacy8827]

TAKE THAT ?? you mesn.. TOOK THAT !!

[@startracker5895]

Eh?

[@Riviere8281]

I undertsand Robbie not in his scale, of course. I'm an introvert and have axienty and my work consists in talking in public and I hate it...

[@startracker5895]

The documentary was rather disappointing. There wasn’t much talk of Take That. Never even mentioned his parents and how they reacted to Robbie’s addictions and mental health problems. He glossed over past relationships and never said why he split up with them.

[@electrolinks]

Theres a lot of pressure on his shoulders. Did he get that underground swimming pool extension done and sorted out with Jimmy next door yet?

[@lawrencegreen5170]

self obsessed , he is not depressed , he has a certain , particular depression , too funny , poor robbo

[@richardcrompton6009]

Butlins /pontins no 1 performer ….

[@OvercookedOctopusFeet]

Ashley Jensen is the most beautiful woman in the world.

[@okaylumberjack]

Very enjoyable albeit a little strange episode. Heartfelt, but slightly stilted at times.
