The eyes give it away. My mom passed away this June from complications related to cortico basal ganglia degenerative dementia--the rarest form--which manifests much like Lewey body, and her eyes too had a heavy-laden look about them. LB is a devastating type of dementia and how Robin must have suffered as he grew terrified of far worse problems that lay before him. God bless this much-loved man; an American treasure who is missed every day. He is a roaming heavenly spirit now.

It is so good to hear someone talk about Lewys Body Dementia, the cause of death. Not drinking or drugging, just a disease that can only be diagnosed with an autopsy. I'm so sorry about your Mum. She has peace and sometimes that's all we can hang on to to get us through. God bless and keep her.

What a great loss to the human race. Still missed by many. Rest in peace Robin 🙏

Even though it's been almost 7 years, knowing this man is gone honestly still hurts. Being a 90's kid, (born in 1984), he was in so many of my favorite childhood movies. He was a sailor, an eccentric but lovable bat with a radar on the side of head, a genie, a nanny, a boy turned man who can fly. RIP Robin Williams. You are still so sorely missed. #GenieIsFree 🧞‍♂️🧞‍♂️💙💙

Yes...this is what he was like before super stardom. There is alot of old stuff out there...specifically an Oprah interview in her beginning as well. Saw him at the Royal Oak Music Theatre right after his "Mork" days. There was NOBODY funnier. You would probably really appreciate him with De Niro in "Awakenings".

These gentlemen provided a GREAT interview space for Robin Williams to be himself...and if HE CHOSE to bring in comedy - but was so low key - it was not required. This is one of his best interviews ever - with 2 people who did not act like sycophants...but 2 guys who appreciated Robin and cared enough to ask well thought out unique questions of this precious man.

😞such love for this man.

I get a little sadder everyday...I need some distance from these interviews. I wonder if on TV, say, if Craig Ferguson would've "broken the spell", and broached the subject of suicide and addiction (an unreasonable, unfunny leap, I know)...I imagine Robin would have made a joke of it; but if someone, a nation? could've accepted him as not being, not having to be funny, but still loved, would he have seen himself differently, not so lonely?

What an amazing man on all counts. I'm been a life long fan. His presence on this planet has been so resonantly palpable that his spirit will always be with us and a part of us. In 1951 God gave us a rare gift.

Mr. Williams was a good comedian, actor, and human being. The entertainment world will never be the same without him.

Great interview. It seemed like Robin was being himself & didn't feel pressured to perform by acting all zany.

Probably the only (extensive) interview I've seen of Robin just being himself.

Great to have seen him from this calm side, too! Intelligent, reflected and kind. It is most of all the human being Robin Williams we are sad to have lost, more than the actor and the comedian. In most of his movies, he was able to let his personality shine through the role figure. That's what makes him so outstanding! Thank you, and bless you, Robin!

Robin Williams was a great comedian, a great actor, and most importantly a great man. Basically made my childhood growing up. You will be missed. RIP.

He appears to be relaxed and it's nice to see him not So manic and "on" and more real and himself. He still shows his immense talent of being able to go in and out of characters and voices so effortlessly. Cool interview. Thanks for sharing.

This is the first time that I have watched this interview with Robin Williams and I am so lucky to now know the intellectual side of the person that I only knew as a comedian and actor. my conclusion oh,what a clever person. May he rest in peace and thanks for the memories.

I love that he was chatting away and didn't know they were filming. He seems so down to earth.

Such brilliant intellect and profound sensitivity!!!!!! This world simply could not hold him any longer. RIP Magnificent Man!

I grew up watching mork & Mindy one awesome person a true icon he will be missed RIP

RIP Robin you were truly amazing one of a kind.....most great at comedy, improvisation and ad-lib there will never be anyone better. The laughter has died a lot now and a great great light that once was this fantastic amazing comedic genius of you has now been extinguished and that light will never be lit again......so so sad....my heart is broken. Robin you were greatly loved and now you are greatly mourned and missed.....

Robin Williams is the only celebrity I cried over when he passed away. The day his death was announced it was raining where I lived. I imagine those were God's tears. An angel sent to us in human form to save us from our sadness, then taken back to Heaven to entertain those who have left us. RIP, Robin, and thank you for everything. God bless you.

He was the first celebrity I cried over too. Like really broke down like a child crying. My father was awful of a man. Highly abusive and toxic nearly killed me and my whole family one night and then tried to kill me at 5 years old. I saw Mrs. Doubtfire and the fact that his character dressed up as an elderly woman just to be with his kids where my father didn't do shit for us. I just wanted Robin as my father instead. My therapist later suggested I use Robin as a way to think of him as my father to heal from my trauma throughout childhood. My father has nothing on Robin Williams. I would've loved to have him as my real dad. He doesn't seem like the kind of dad that would beat his kid senseless into unconsciousness like mine.

I miss you Robin Williams. You'll never know how much you helped me.x

I miss this man no doubt! So real!

Miss him so much

Here it is yrs later n he is still so loved n missed....😭❤

"Bush was a self-opening pinata."- Robin Williams LMAOOOO so many years later and he is still the greatest. Definitely the #1 person I wish we could magically bring back.

i really like the interviewers in this interview, a nice casual feel to this whole clip

Robin seemed like a person that cared about world events and its people....I turned the nightly news off 2 years ago and no longer worry about the daily BS that is broadcast. Too many wheels grinding in your head will not give you a restful peace. Never really liked many of Robins movies, although was a genius on stage and in a interview situation....just a genuine person that was a gift to all of us and left too soon.

True comedian but very interesting, intelligent men outside of their careers. Life is so dry with out people like robin William. Wish I met him and gave him and hug and told him how much he helped me growing up. Got me out of my depression. Forever appreciated 😍🤩🤩🤩

This man is of huge importance to me on a personal level and growing up with a mother who suffered and still does to a degree with terrible bouts of depression, Robin Williams would often light the way along a very dark tunnel with his brilliance, great charisma and optimistic movies. He had the ability to make the sad smile and the sternest of hearts weep unconsolably. For sure, we will never see the likes of this great man again! Chris (UK).

I admired him so much as a comedian, actor, and a human being. So sad about his passing. He will be missed.,

I truly enjoyed this interview. It seems like he's got his walls down, not just being 'on' all the way through. Just speaking candidly and honestly as well as bringing some smart and interesting conversation to the interviewers. Thank you for posting this!

RIP dear man--geez what a deep loss.

Thank you for posting this wonderful interview. He will be terribly missed.

One heck of an actor but we as fans didn't know what he going through. I watched all his films and his stage comedies yet we didn't know. Like all of us, he had personal troubles trying to reach out ( to you or to anyone as an outlet but i think he found no one to ease him his troubles) - nobody listened. To everyone who think they're all alone, remember you have choices! If nobody listens to you, get out and be in a different environment, leave anything that would remember who you were and go somewhere and start all over and be anonymous and live life to the fullest.

Robin's greatest gift was his mind and his heart! His personality and his talent came from having a brilliant mind! So fast paced and creative! He was like a one of those money counting machines just spitting out incredible material every second! Parkinson's disease would of stole everything he loved from him! The idea of not being able to do what he loved! The frustration from not being able to do it! And then not being able to make the people around you happy! Robin lived to make others happy by doing what he could do best! In his life he suffered from severe depression when he could do the things he loved! Could you imagine how painful that must of been for him? Knowing that soon you could possibly have it all stolen from you by your own body! It's so upsetting to think he couldn't bare to see those days come. I will always love him dearly though for the gift of life he gave to every single one of us! In my days of depression he is here for me. He gave his laugh and smile for us and in return he has my heart. God bless him

Such a wonderful man who brought laughter to our hearts, who would have known that he was a tortured soul, I sadly miss him.

I have such a deep adoration for him. He was truly special, there was something so profoundly lovable about him. I miss him so much.

Been 2 weeks or so and I am still stunned..Robin was ever present and I never realized how much he meant to me until he was gone. I saw the original broadcast of Happy Days when he first came on the scene and then all that he did for the next 30 years or so. Like losing family for all of us. Guess we gotta deal with it. Love Robin and family.

I love this

It’s lovely to see Robin so calm and relaxed here. No putting on a show. He was one of the greats and I miss him terribly.

I enjoyed this so much➡for me, the "interview" has the tones & delights of a conversation. Genuine interests all round, thought-provoking, resonance, laughter--kind of like friends, around the kitchen table, catching up w/one who's been away for a long time. I've saved it---for future reference & repeat viewings. Thanks very much for taking the trouble to post/share it❣

Thank you for posting this interview. A rare insight into this zany comic. This is the Robin Williams that his children spoke of. RIP

great interview! thank you for posting. such a gentle soul.

THIS is a wonderful interview!

He comes across as such a lovely guy in this splendid interview. Makes me feel so sad he's no longer with us. God bless him. 'O' Captain my captain'.

16:19 Robin talking about "World's Greatest Dad" is kind of spooky, considering it begins with someone tragically hanging himself. That scene alone is too heart-wrenching for me to watch the movie again, but it's interesting that Robin was so proud of it.

This interview has an authentic feel to it, like they just happened to have a camera capturing a conversation at the bar. You can tell he's still trying to be funny though cause its sorta expected of him but still great.

Disappointed that he didn't mention WHAT DREAMS MAY COME....one of my favs.

Rip Robin Williams :( Amazing actor...

Great interview really shows how friendly Robin Williams was, and honestly i think that's the most important quality a person can have and that's something to be proud of. Oh plus he gave us Death to Smoochy :>
