MINI: ROBBIE WILLIAMS Interview
18/03/2026 | 10 mins.
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. Keep GOLD on all day and listen out for Christian’s cue to call for your shot at tickets… and that massive VIP upgrade. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
