Brendan O'Connor · Bill Nighy: “Now I’m Irish, I’m going to have to rebrand” · 9 May 2026 podcast

So which thrills me every time I think about it.

So you have no idea what people think about Bill Nye.

I only get bits and pieces.

I don't own a car and I walk about everywhere.

So I meet quite a lot of people, which is a decision I made a long time ago.

I don't want to make any concessions to the fact of my job because I like to walk and I like to go to bookshops and I like to sit outside cafes and read a book.

And if I can't do that, the game's up.

So I made that choice.

So I meet a lot of people.

And I catch bits and pieces from people about how am I currently viewed.

And he and he used to single you out occasionally and and talk to you one to one.

And he said to me, as if I knew, he said, well, of course, you're highly strong.

And I was so flattered.
