Rogan, though, has now said that Williams used to do other people’s bits on shows. Rogan told Harland Williams in JRE episode #2158, "I think (Robin) wanted to kill more than he wanted to be ethical at any cost. Part of that manic sort of style is this constant need to have a bit about anything that you're talking about ever. Killing was more important; filling that hole inside of him was more important than anything.”
Rogan claimed that fellow comedian Sam Kinison also got at Williams. He furthered: “If you ask any of those comics from back then, there's always instances of Robin going on a talk show and doing your bit.”
Joe further stated that “material theft” is something weird that people do. He said, “They try to pawn off other people's bits as their own.” Well, he didn’t stop there, as he said, “It's a vampire thing,” because one goes on stealing a “little bit” from every other guy.
Williams was known for his manic stand-up routine. He died in 2014 by suicide. Apart from comedy, Williams also left his mark in the film industry.
