In this powerful and surprisingly funny episode, Robbie Williams joins Andrew Gold on Heretics to open up about fame, anxiety, and the toxic feedback loop of social media. Fresh from a cancelled gig in Turkey and surrounded by controversy, Robbie sits down for one of his rawest interviews yet — reflecting on the highs and lows of stardom, and why he can’t stop reading the comments, no matter how cruel they get. From Take That to solo superstardom to being branded “toxic” online, Robbie lays bare what it really feels like when millions of strangers think they know you. Andrew and Robbie dig deep into the psychology of celebrity and online outrage: Why do people rage comment, and what does it say about us? Does social media fuel narcissism, loneliness — or both? How do you stay sane when your name trends for all the wrong reasons? And is there any way for public figures to survive the internet without losing their minds? Along the way, Robbie shares outrageous behind-the-scenes stories featuring Gary Barlow, Boy George, Ricky Gervais, Lady Gaga, and more. He also gives his brutally honest take on cancel culture, ego, and why he’s still addicted to fame — even when it hurts. It’s the most honest, hilarious, and heartbreaking Robbie Williams interview yet — part confessional, part therapy, and entirely Heretical. 💬 Tell us in the comments: Do you think celebrities deserve the hate they get online — or are we all guilty of rage commenting?
