Robbie Williams

We’re VERY excited to welcome back two extra special guests to the podcast, musicians, writers and producers who have been absolutely instrumental in the making of BRITPOP: Karl Brazil and Owen Parker. Not only have Karl and Owen co-written nearly every track on the album with Robbie Williams, they also co-produced it alongside Martin Terefe, played on the recordings, and brought it to life on stage as part of Robbie’s live band. If you’re looking for the true inside track on his first non-Christmas album in nearly a decade, this is the interv...

Christian O'Connell chats with Robbie Williams about life's ups and downs. They start with a funny story about Christian doing shoulder exercises on live TV, which leads to a conversation about the challenges of getting older. Robbie shares his own experiences with back and joint issues, and they commiserate about the struggles of middle age. The conversation takes a heartwarming turn as they discuss being parents and how their own childhoods compare to their kids' lives today. With humor and honesty, they explore the pros and cons of growing up in the 80s and 90s versus raising their own children in the modern era. Global superstar Robbie Williams is heading Down Under this November with his BRITPOP World Tour, and Christian O’Connell has lined up the ultimate Golden Ticket experience. Think VIP check‑in, food and drinks, a pre‑show party, a gift from Robbie, and A‑Reserve seats right up front.

Subscribe to Heretics Clips for fearless, good-faith interviews with the world’s most fascinating minds: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos How does a global superstar keep his head straight—and his eyes shut—when the spotlight never turns off? In this candid Heretics conversation, Robbie Williams sits down with Andrew Gold to unpack the reality of insomnia and ADHD on tour: adrenaline spikes after shows, 3 a.m. hotel walls, long-haul jet lag, and the restless brain that won’t let go. Raw, funny and unfiltered, Robbie explains how he juggles performance, family, creativity and mental health when sleep is a moving target. Inside the episode you’ll hear: 👉 The post-show vortex: why coming down after stadium-level highs wrecks sleep—and the rituals Robbie uses to land the plane. 👉 ADHD on the road: attention “pinball,” routine hacks, and how structure (and humour) become lifelines between cities. 👉 Tour-tested sleep tools: pre-bed wind-downs, breathwork, light discipline, caffeine cut-offs, journaling—and what actually works when the mind won’t cooperate. 👉 Performance vs. recovery: balancing rehearsals, travel days and press without burning the fuse at both ends. 👉 The mindset shift: reframing insomnia from enemy to signal, so the night doesn’t ruin the next day. Andrew’s calm, curiosity-led style gives Robbie room to reflect—on anxiety, fame’s echo chamber, the pull of the stage, and the private negotiations every artist makes with their own brain at 4 a.m. If you’re a performer, creative, shift-worker or just a chronic over-thinker, you’ll come away with practical ideas and a deeper appreciation of what resilience looks like behind the curtain.

We’re delighted to bring you another Better Man interview - we’re joined by singer Adam Tucker, who provided vocals for Robbie Williams in the film. Adam tells us about the unique way he secured the role and explains why it was necessary to have someone younger sing some of Robbie’s vocals, to match the Robbie reflected in the film. He discusses the integration of CGI and the unique experience of blending his singing with Jonno Davies’s portrayal of Robbie, before WETA worked their special effects magic to create the finished movie. Adam even shares details of some voice notes he received from Rob of previously unrecorded songs, to help him capture the essence of Robbie.

On this episode of The Movie Podcast, Daniel travels to Los Angeles to sit down with the legendary Robbie Williams, Jonno Davies, Raechelle Banno, and Director Michael Gracey to discuss BETTER MAN , the true story of the meteoric rise, dramatic fall, and remarkable resurgence of British pop superstar Robbie Williams. The film tells the story of Williams’ life, but he is portrayed as a CG-animated anthropomorphic chimpanzee because, as he puts it, he always felt “less evolved than other people.” Better Man is now playing exclusively in theatres by Paramount Pictures.

Robbie Williams is a hugely popular singer and songwriter. He set a record by winning 18 Brit Awards and has two Grammy nominations to his name. Williams has churned out six of the top 100 best-selling albums in British history, amassed an audience of 375,000 fans over three nights performing at Knebworth, setting a record that’s yet to be surpassed, and has sold 85 million album worldwide. The list of achievements and accolades goes on and on, but he insists, “I didn't derive any joy from all the success that I had.” However, at 50, things have changed. “I am experiencing joy and I'm experiencing happiness. I'm also experiencing gratitude, a great deal of gratitude where I didn't have gratitude before. So, these are my golden years.” Williams has been enjoying a different kind of spotlight since August 2024. That’s when his film, Better Man , premiered at the 51st Telluride Film Festival before moving on to the Toronto International Film Festival , Fantastic Fest , and more. Based on Williams’ true rise, fall and resurgence, Better Man chronicles his journey from finding fame as a teenager with the boy band Take That, to parting ways with the group and mounting a solo career. While Williams did find great success on that path, it was one that also came with a significant number of struggles that, as Williams himself lists, included, “childhood trauma, fame too early, mental illness, addiction, [and] rehab.” Better Man shows how he powered through those challenges as Williams sees himself, as a “performing monkey.” With Better Man gearing up to celebrate its nationwide release on January 10th, Williams took the time to join me for a Collider Forces conversation to revisit the early days of his music career, explain how his definition of having “it” has evolved over the years, discuss why he trusted Gracey with his story, and so much more.
