Eric Idle Remembers Robin Williams | Entertainment and Celebrity News

Eric Idle spills wild tales from his new book, revealing Robin Williams as the most electrifying guest he’s ever hosted—despite having Bowie and Harrison on speed dial. Williams visited France three times with his first two wives, bonding over holidays and their 1980s film Baron Munchausen. Idle was shattered by Williams’ 2014 death, calling him a true friend—and admits he should’ve taken note when Williams declined a live Python stunt, a move that now feels like a haunting omen. The book, Idle in Provence: A Brief History of Thyme, is packed with these intimate, unforgettable memories. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
