I think if you're eating cockroaches, you deserve to choke to death.
Starting point is 00:18:00 I'm sorry, to the family, to the friends. You're a train that's derailed. Eating cockroach, you know how dirty those things are? Why don't you just go sucking Ebola scab down at the Center for Disease Control? Hi, excuse me, yes. Is there anyone here with open Ebola sores? fourth floor? Okay, I'm going to go up and suck on them. Do you have any tequila salt and a lemon wedge? I'd like to squirt that on the open Ebola sore before I suck on it. And if there's
Starting point is 00:18:39 any cockroaches in the building, don't worry, I've got those covered. I mean, good Lord, man. What is wrong with people? That guy's gravestone? Here lies David Smith. choked on cockroaches. I mean, that'd be the only grave in the cemetery with no bugs in near it. Nothing's going to go into his coffin and eat them all up. That guy's going to be a perfect mummy. It'll be like a perfect one. They dig his bones up in 7,000 years.
Starting point is 00:19:14 It'll look like he just died that same day. The bugs won't even eat that guy. I'm not going near that guy. That guy eats cockroaches, man. Can you imagine the worms and the beetles? Don't go near that guy. He'll eat you, man. He's a cockroach eater.
Starting point is 00:19:28 He's got the world record. Either that or this guy that owns the pet shop, it was brilliant. He probably had like a cockroach infestation. He called Orkin or one of these, you know, exterminator plays. Yeah, we'll come clean your cockroaches out. That'll be $2,000.
Starting point is 00:19:49 Screw it. I'm going to have a cockroach eating contest. Yeah. That's like a freebie right there. So anyways, gang, there's your wacky story for the day. You know, in this violent world we live in, if you don't quite feel comfortable with a gun, or if you have a gun and you don't want to carry your gun,
Starting point is 00:20:13 you don't have a carry permit, do yourself a favor. Get a bearded dragon. And if anyone tries to mess with you, you just warn them in advance. Do you step away or I'm going to slap you with my bearded dragon? Man, you are one pathetic loser. Loser, loser, loser.
Starting point is 00:20:38 Okay, Roger, Roger, stop it. Loser, loser, loser, loser, loser. Stop it, Roger, I don't want to hear that in. What is, what is that? Who is, who are you letting in here? Oh my God. Hi. What? Oh, my God. What are you doing here? I just thought I'd come and say, hi. It's a brand new year. And I thought it was special.
Starting point is 00:21:05 Oh, God. Why did you let Michael Jackson in here, Roger? Hi. Hi. It's a brand new year. That's why you're here, because it's a brand new year. It's not just any year. It's not just any year, huh, Michael? Oh, it's a special year. It's a special year.

Starting point is 00:22:10 Yeah. One five. Twenty-fifteen. Special. It's not special. Why is it special? Because there's four letters in the word special.
Starting point is 00:22:23 Four letters in the word special Yeah Four letters in the word special There's not four letters in the word special As a matter of fact, Jacko There's seven letters in the word special Okay But if you subtract three

He could get run over by a dump truck, and it would be special. He could have the worst things in the world happen, and it would be special. I told him to moonwalk and fall down the stairs. He'd think it was special that guy right there.
Starting point is 00:24:13 What do you want? I just fell down the stairs, and it was special. Oh, get out of here! God, smash your face into the door on the way out. Okay, will that be special? Because I want it to be special. I want to smash my face in the door, special. Get out!
Starting point is 00:24:38 Hello? Hello? Harlan, Rich. Hope you had a good new year. I'm not. I can't find your podcast on Buzz Sprouting. anymore. Are you not hosting them on Buzz Sprout anymore? I only have up to 635, and I'd rather not be beholden to iTunes. You know, it used to be great just downloading the MP3 and listen to it at my leisure
Starting point is 00:25:03 on whatever device I wanted. And I don't know how I'm going to hear this if you're not on Buzzsprout. I don't think you'll look into that. I'd appreciate it. Thanks, and I'll try listening somehow. Probably through your page. Bye. Well, don't say bye. We are going through some technical upgrades here at the Harland Highway. So for those of you that did catch the show on a system called Buzzsprout, I did put a little message on that platform that told you how you can upgrade to get everything you need.
Starting point is 00:25:48 on on on on the new uh platform so uh if you're having problems and you shouldn't be now everything's kind of leveling out um just go to my uh website harlem williams dot com and go on the podcast page and you will see a a little uh little icon where it says you can download this podcast for free it's a little icon where it looks like radio waves being transmissible into space. It's a little square, an orange square with pulsing sound waves on it, and that is the new feed. You can download that and you'll be hooked in, or you can, we have a link for Stitcher, we have a link for iTunes, we have a link for SoundCloud. There's all kinds of links. So, you know, get over there, and then my technicians inform me, too, if for some reason you're
Starting point is 00:26:45 having any difficulty to unsubscribe to the podcast on iTunes, on iTunes only, and then re-subscribe, and that should filter out any type of glitches if you are having any. And it might even help if you're having trouble seeing some of the backlogged episodes, try rebooting your iTunes and see what happens. but so yeah we're working to upgrade the system that the cool thing about our new platform is that it involves a player so now uh whenever i download the show and it shows up on twitter or facebook or uh even on my web page it automatically uploads a player so you don't have to like go searching for a link you can just hit the play button and listen to the show um so uh this year we're just trying to um
Starting point is 00:27:43 modernize and uh you know keep all the technology up to snuff and uh you know just make sure that everything's really special for you when you listen to the show and uh have a real hold on hi oh god hi what are you doing back here idiot i heard you say special what i heard you say upgrade the show yes and have a special experience okay out out out right now i can't go now i'm feeling special about your special no no i don't i want everyone to have a special experience except for you a what experience what you said you want everyone to have an experience of what kind i said i want them to to have a special experience.
Starting point is 00:28:45 He, he, he, he, he, what are you giggling about? You said, special. And that's special to me. He, he, he. Get out of here, Jacko. Out. God. Roger.
Starting point is 00:29:05 Now, if I may continue with another phone call, God. Hello? Hello? Hey, Harland. It was great here in Late Lament by the Moody Blues. It reminds me of when I was a high schooler, just like you, I went to an all-boys boarding school, and I had that poem hanging up.
Starting point is 00:29:31 As soon as I heard the beginning, I knew exactly what the poem was. I could recite it by memory. It brings back great memories. Thanks so much. It's what I love about your podcast. It's funny sometimes. It's poignant sometimes.
Starting point is 00:29:43 times. God, it makes me laugh most of the time. And I really appreciate what you do. Keep it up, baby. Well, thank you very much, kind sir. I'm glad you liked it. I'm glad you liked that poetry, man. Me and you are on the same page with that poetry. You know, with the stuff I played, it's not just the words which are very, I don't know what the word is. They're just very immersive is that does that sound like the right word because i just find i get immersed in those words and it's it's not just the words but it's the the way they're delivered the passion and then the uh the the acting in the guy's voice is uh quite spectacular to me so hey thanks for your kind kind comments i'm glad you like what we're doing here at the
Starting point is 00:30:35 harland highway and uh you know the biggest favorite you you can do is let your friends know so they can enjoy all this wacky and crazy and sometimes serious stuff that we do here thank you hey all and just want to follow up on some comments a rant really made on the crying and laughing podcast number 635 i google those commercials you were talking about the no more speechless ads played during football games these are actually outtakes completely unplanned and unscripted the actors and athletes in these ads were genuinely overcome with the emotional content during the filming of these ads and had to pause together themselves. So the cameras kept rolling, so they kept, this is what they captured.
Starting point is 00:31:19 So I sent you a message to our website at gmail.com and with the link to the article that's talking about these things. Okay. Hey, buddy, I love the podcast. And now for a big steaming bowl of chicken shall make me fun, baby. Bye. Okay, okay. I hear you. Thank you for that update on my rant about the crime where I accused the people in that ad of being insincere and being, you know, acting and putting it on for the camera. And, you know, excuse me for being pessimistic about it.
Starting point is 00:32:05 but I'm going to stand by what I said if they were genuinely moved and started crying and were overwhelmed by the public service announcements they were doing then God bless them if it was real but I'm still a little suspicious because it turns out the whole public service announcement is mostly them crying
Starting point is 00:32:35 So that makes me wonder, well, what happened to all the dialogue that was the core, the content of the public service announcement? And don't you find it a bit suspicious that everyone they used broke down and cried, all of them? And not only did they break down and cry, but they stared into the camera and cried, and some of them kind of mugged and, And again, I'm not knocking the cause. God bless anyone for, you know, advocating against violence, against women or against anybody. I appreciate their efforts. I appreciate the cause. But, you know, I'm an actor.
Starting point is 00:33:24 I've been on the set of, you know, I've done three sitcoms. I've done 45 movies. I've done blah, blah, blah. I've been on the sets I kind of get the scenario I've seen actors at work firsthand and I've seen producers
Starting point is 00:33:45 and directors and everybody and something just reeks of this is very, very staging and I almost picture someone going into the green room before these actors go out and say hey listen, listen gang so we're going to do
Starting point is 00:34:01 these public service announcements it's violence against women and we're going to put the dialogue up on prompters so just read the prompters and you know if you just happen to some for some reason whatever it's not like we're looking for it
Starting point is 00:34:19 but if you happen to get so overcome with grief and emotion and you start crying emphasis on crying we you know We don't oppose that. In fact, that might just be the only material that makes it into the finished product, if you know what I mean.
Starting point is 00:34:43 So, you know, just be yourself, do what you do, and if for some reason you start crying. You know, is it okay if we use it if you're crying? I don't know, man. I've been around it. It just, I'm sure someone sat down and said, let's do a campaign against violence and let's get celebrities crying. I don't think they sat down and let's sit down and get a bunch of celebrities reading off a prompter in black and white and, you know, condemning violence against women.
Starting point is 00:35:23 Because that's been done. That's boring. I'm pretty sure, you know, Hillary Swank won two awesome. is based on her crying. I've told you before. A lot of actors think that acting is crying. And when it's warranted, it's great. But one thing I've learned about Hillary Swank,
Starting point is 00:35:43 if you go back and look at all her movies, I guarantee you're going to see a big, big crying scene or the watering of the eyes. She can turn it on like a light switch. Good actors can do that. I think I've told this story before. I was with Jim Carrey once. We were in his hotel room.
Starting point is 00:36:05 Excuse me. I'm about to cry. I'm getting overwhelmed. And we were doing a show together, and after the show, we went to his hotel room. We were sitting there eating room service. Me and him at the table alone. And we're just talking, laughing, or eating cheesecake for dessert. And all of a sudden, Jim says to me, he goes,
Starting point is 00:36:26 You know, Harlan, I can cry. on command. I'm going to go, what are you talking about, dude? He turns his head for about three, four seconds, turns back and he's crying real tears. Real tears, and I'm like,
Starting point is 00:36:40 holy God. But good actors can tap into this, and, uh, you know, so I don't know. I don't want to blast. I don't want to blast the message. But maybe I'm blasted a bit.
Starting point is 00:36:57 You know, there's a bit of, pretentious phoniness mixed in with it that kind of bothers me a bit because it's a tough sensitive topic, the violence against women and violence against anyone and last thing I need
Starting point is 00:37:13 is it to kind of feel like someone's doing a you know a show on Broadway surrounded by that you know so anyways who knows I don't know the real answer those are my thoughts and I'm going to leave it right there.
Starting point is 00:37:32 You can cry if you want to. And speaking of crying, oh my God, we're at the end of the show.
