All right. Here we go. Here we go. Here we go. It's the Harland Highway. How are you today? Everybody, pavement pounders and friends. Welcome to the show. Big show today. Dr. Ascot is dropping by to psychoanalyze me. I'm terrified to know what he's going to ask me about or probe into me today. He creeps me out. My on-air therapist, Dr. Ascott.
Also, a crazy news story that's a little disturbing, a little upsetting about pervy priests.
Yeah, some pervy, greasy, sex fiend priests.
We're going to be uncovering that crazy news story.
Also, yours truly hung out at the nightclub.
I went out to the club the other night.
Oh, yeah, I went to the club, baby.
and a weird experience because, you know, I'm a little older now,
and it's just a little different than going when you're a punk.
So we'll be talking about me at the club.
And also, we're going to be playing the first clips from my brand new animated Disney show,
the Harley Dog Pals show.
And we're going to be playing the promo clip for you so you get to hear it.
And I'm going to be talking about when the release.
date is. So cool stuff. Let's go. This is the
Harland Highway.
Sit down, strap in, and
tighten your diaper. Come here, baby.
You're about to go down the Harlan Highway.
No! No! I didn't bargain
for this. Oh, yes, you did.
Chick-a-chic-cha, chik-a-ch-ch-ch-ach-chall.
Oh, Maine, baby.
And the creature
from all of us, baby.
Please don't stop.
I got a feed and ugly sight.
Magnificent performance.
This is the Harland Highway.
I hate you.
Well, that's the way it goes.
What do you say?
We get down to business.
The Harland Highway
Crazy news stories
That's weird
That's strange stuff
All right
Let's start the show off with a crazy news story
I always enjoy them
Because they're crazy
Here we go
Here's the crazy news headline right here
Kind of freaky
Here it is sex orgies
prostitution, porn, allegation shake Catholic Church in Italy.
Yikes.
Are we surprised these days at these kind of headlines?
I don't know, but let's get into the story here.
Rome, lurid accusations of priests involving sex orgies, porn videos, and prostitution
have emerged from several parishes in Italy recently.
Sending shockwaves all the way to the Vatican and challenging the high standards Pope Francis demands of clergy.
That's what I'm saying. Are we really shocked?
I mean, after all the disgusting things we've heard priests do, remember in the United States here,
all the child molestations and the perversions and the...
Is anyone listening really shocked? I'm not.
I'm not shocked one bit
I feel like this
this kind of stuff is tip of the iceberg stuff
it seems like the the priests
and all these religious figureheads
have kind of had this firewall
where everyone's kind of scared
to expose them and challenge them
and lift the covers off of what they do
because it's so awkward
and there's so much shame
involved both ways, and then there's religion.
You feel like, well, if I expose the priest, he's a man of God.
Maybe I should just let him do it.
Maybe I'll go to hell if I don't let him play with my Diddleheimer.
Ew, it's disgusting.
Let's finish the story here.
In the southern city of Naples, for example, a priest was recently suspended from the parish of Santa
Maria Degel, Angelini.
over claims he held gay orgies and used internet sites
to recruit potential partners whom he paid for sacks.
I don't think that's what Santa Maria de Gaoli and Jolini wanted.
Do you?
Do you really think that's what Santa Maria Deligial Jalini wanted?
Was gay orgies?
the allegations concerning the Reverend Mario de Orlando
I'm feeling a lot of Florida here
we got Naples and Orlando
there's some kind of Florida connection
were brought to the attention
of the diocese when an anonymous letter
was sent to a Naples bishop
to Orlando denied the charges
when he was summoned by the city's Irish bishop
Cardinal Cresenzo, Cardinal Cresensio Cepet, but is now facing a formal inquiry conducted by local church officials.
Excuse me, Reverend Dorlando, have you been having gay sex orgies in the church?
Oh, no, senor, no, absolutely.
Not me.
What, no, no.
I swear to God, I haven't.
Oh, you swear to God?
Yes, I swear to God, and I'm a priest.
Oh, okay, well, I guess it's okay, then I have to believe you.
In the northern city of Padua, a 48-year-old priest,
the Reverend Andrea Conton is facing defrocking,
as well as judicial proceedings,
and accusations he had up to 30 lovers,
some of whom he took to a Swingers resort in France.
What the hell?
Excuse me, Signor, but why do you have 30 people with you?
Oh, these are just my altar boys.
We're here at this Swingers' Resort for a, you know,
it's a retreat, it's for counseling, and we're doing some training.
I'm going to train the altar boys, and I just thought this would be a nice, you know, secluded getaway.
There's no funny stuff going on. Trust me, I'm a man of the cloth. You can believe me.
Yes, signor, yes, of course. I would not challenge you being on this sexual island with swingers and palm trees and dacqueries and 15 finally scrubbed altar boys.
Of course not. Now, get out of my way. By the way, where is the olive oil?
Oh, it's in the kitchen, signor.
And the Vaseline?
Excuse me, Señor?
Nothing, I'm nothing.
Well, show me to my room.
Ay, aye, aye.
Cortine was removed from his parish in San Lazaro
after three women came forward
with complaints against him in December.
Bishop Claudio Cipola of Padua
cut short a visit to Latin America
to deal with the scandal.
He says, I am incredulous and pained by the accusation,
Cipola said at a news conference last month.
This is unacceptable behavior for a priest,
a Christian, and even for a man.
Really?
It's unchristian.
It's unacceptable behavior to go to a swingers resort?
Well, I guess the Bible teaches us,
thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife.
I guess, you know, the Bible teaches us to be, you know, one-on-one and not be scandalous and jump around from bed to bed. All right, fair enough.
One woman who claims to have been Cortan's lover for more than three years claimed the priest carried sex toys and bondage equipment,
prostituted his lovers on wife-swapping websites, and also invited other priests from the area to sex parties.
Um, how many of you are now thinking, you know, I've never been very religious, and I've always felt guilty about, you know, not going to church, but I think it might be the time right now to jump back in.
I think it might be time to get back into the, quote, religious game.
Sounds freaking wild, man.
Quote, even at the end of this affair, there are no legal consequences, and we have a duty by a case.
canon law to take disciplinary action, said Cipola.
He also revealed Pope Francis telephoned him personally at the end of January to offer his support
and urge him to stay strong.
Since his election, the Pope has taken a tough line on ethical behavior in the church,
though he has also recognized the reality of human imperfection and personal flaws.
Yeah, think about it, man.
It's got to be tough to be a priest.
I mean, just because you're a priest doesn't mean you don't wake up with morning wood, right?
You can't stop a wet dream.
You can't stop, you know, erotic thoughts in your sleep.
You can't stop erotic thoughts even when you're awake.
And it almost seems cruel to, you know, deprive a human being, a full-grown man, of, you know,
expressing his sexuality.
You know, here's the thing.
If God made all of us,
if we are made in the image of God
and God made man, well, God made man with a penis
and he didn't put it on there
just because it's like an ornament.
It's not a Christmas decoration.
It's not like a hood ornament on the front of a car.
It's not like a door knocker.
It's a penis.
God built the penis to get erect and do things and feel good and have fun.
I'm sorry if this is getting a bit graphic, but I mean, God did it, not me.
And so to create something in your own image and then say, you know what, you can use your eyes to see, okay, check.
I'm going to let you use your ears, you can use your ears to listen, your mouth, you can eat,
You can talk.
If you have to take a poo, I'm going to let you use your butt.
But your penis, no, no, no, no.
That you're not going to use.
You're going to live 80 years, and you're never going to use that thing
that's constantly calling to you, get me off, get me off.
Nope, not going to let you do it.
You're going to be tortured for your whole 80 fucking years.
I don't know why, but you are.
I just, I singled you out, all you priests.
So maybe it's got to change.
Maybe priests should be allowed to have sex.
You know, it's probably all that pent-up denial.
It's probably all that pent-up, you know,
not being able to have sex that's got them in a purve mode.
How many of you guys listening can go like a month without sex, a week?
Maybe a day, some of you.
How many of you dudes could even go one year, two years, three years without sex?
Okay, try 80.
And here's the thing most of you dudes have probably had sex, so at least you've experienced it.
So you don't have to walk around going, oh, my God, I wonder what it feels like.
Oh, it must be heavenly.
Oh, I can't wait till I lose my virginity.
Oh, right?
But the priest is like, well, I guess I'm never going to see what this thing does.
Maybe I should have it chopped off.
So it just seems unnatural.
And maybe that's part of the root of the problem.
My priests are so jacked up and horny because it's, you know, it's A, they're not allowed to do it.
They haven't been able to do it.
So they're all pent up.
And then B, what's one of the common threads of human nature?
We all know it when you're not allowed to do something,
it becomes more enticing, doesn't it?
When your mother told you you couldn't have a cookie from the cookie jar,
all your brain did was scheme.
How am I going to get those cookies?
Oh, I've got to find the ladder.
I got to find where she hid them.
My God, I'm going to get them.
I'm going to eat all of them.
Normally, I just have two, but because I'm stealing them, I want all of them.
You know, that's why people drink.
They have drugs.
They get into trouble.
Remember when your mother would say,
stop laughing. I don't want to hear you laughing.
And it just made you laugh all the harder.
When people tell you you can't laugh,
it makes you laugh even more.
And so something ain't working
because there's just one too many.
No, there's like 5 million too many
of these pervy priest stories, man.
And it's gross and it's disgusting,
but there's a side of all of us
that are probably compassionate and go,
oh my God, these poor guys, they're deprived.
which isn't to say
I'm condoning their behavior
not at all
I think they should be thrown in jail
let's see what else
have we got here
here's the end of the story
here
Francis has frequently called
for more rigorous screening
processes for priests
and he has taken direct action
when scandals erupt in Italy
A case in point when reports of Playboy priests surfaced in the Italian diocese of some place I can't even pronounce
in the northern region of another place I can't renounce in late 2014, the Pope sent a special envoy
to investigate claims that clerics had posted nude photos of themselves on gay websites
sexually harassed the faithful and stole church funds.
sexually harassed the faithful.
That's a jam.
Two years later, the Pope replaced the leader of the diocese,
and so it sounds like he's doing some stuff.
The Pope said the Pope distinguished between the sinfulness and corruption
and was intent on rooting out corruption inside the church.
He says the remedy for those who succumbed to temptation,
is forgiveness and a fresh start.
The problem is when priests turn their backs on the people
lead hidden lives and end up justifying their conduct.
That's corruption.
Okay, well, that's just ridiculous.
The remedy for those who succumbed to temptation is forgiveness and a fresh start.
Okay, forgiveness for them.
What about their victims?
Do we give them forgiveness in a fresh start?
No, because they've been victimized.
That's BS, man.
The remedy for those who succumb is jail time and castration.
That's what it in my, if I was running things.
Good God.
So there you go, man.
If you're religious, keep your eyes on your fries, man.
Watch out.
Keep your eyes on the priest.
I hate to say it, but to this day and age, you've got to kind of say it.
And, uh, who, don't, uh, don't drop your, uh, don't drop your holy wafer.
Because, uh, you don't want to bend over and pick that up.
Hello!
By George, I think he's got it.
Hello, Alland.
What the hell?
Holland.
What are you...
Roger, did you let Dr. Ascot in here?
Holland.

Holland.

Arland, it's time for your therapy
session, Arland. I don't have a therapy session planned with you.
Holland, I was listening to your podcast
and you were talking about some very delicate
subject matters.
Well, it was just a crazy news story
about, you know, these priests who are
in trouble for, you know, engaging in sex
and molestation.
and things like that?
Arland, have you ever been molested?
What?
What?
Holland, that's why I'm here today.
It sounds like you were very traumatized
as you were reading the news story.
I wasn't traumatized, Ascott.
By the way, what color is that blazer you're wearing?
It's butterscotch mint, Holland.
Butterscotch mint blazer.
Correct.

No, I have never been touched.
That was the creepiest thing.
I've ever heard you do.
Arland, I'm just here to help,
Arland. I haven't been touched,
okay, by anybody.
Let me ask you a question,
Arland. Okay.
Do you have uncles?
What, yes, I have many uncles.
All right, Arland.
And do you remember attending
a family function with any of your uncles?
Yes, many family functions.
Christmas parties, Thanksgiving,
birthday parties. Why?
Well, on any those occasions, Arland,
did your uncles ever touch you, Arland?
No, they didn't touch me.
Did you ever hug one of your uncles?
Yes, a friendly greeting, I hugged them.
So what you're telling me is you embraced one of your uncles
or several of your uncles, Arland.
Yeah, yes, in a greeting? Who hasn't?
Uh-huh.
Uh-huh, what does that mean?
It sounds like you were hugging with your Uncle Orland.
Well, when I said hello, I put my arms around him, he put his arms around me.
Kind of like slow dancing when you were a teenager.
Well, I wasn't slow dancing, As God, it was like, hi, how are you? Welcome to the party.
and how long did these, quote, unquote, hugs last, Holland?
I don't know. Sometimes you'd hug for a couple of seconds.
Sometimes if you hadn't seen each other, it would last a little while.
A little while, Holland.
What are you getting at?
And did you shake hands with your, quote, uncles, Holland?
Yes, I've shaken hands with my uncles.
So you have been tough.
What do you mean?
Well, it sounds like you were holding hands and hugging with your uncle, Salland.
I wasn't hold... I shook my uncle's hand, As Scott.
And when you shake hands, Arland, what do you do?
What do you mean? You put your hand in the hand of the other person and grasp it and hold it and...
Aha.
What?
Holding hands with your uncle and slow dancing, Holland.
I wasn't...
Are you out of your mind?
It's ridiculous.
Let me ask you another very delicate question, Holland.
Okay?
Did you ever play ball with your father, Holland?
Did I ever play ball?
What, like catch?
Yes, Holland.
Yes?
And after you caught a tough catch,
did your father ever come up
and pat you on the back
and tell you you were a good boy
Yes
Aha
What
What was that
So your father touched you
Holland
Look, Ascot
I don't know what you're trying to bend this thing
That's a whole other category
Arland
What
The bendy thing
My father
My father would
pat me on the back, my father would
sit on my father's lap
but, uh-huh.
What? You're telling me
you sat on your father's lap,
Holland.
You know what, Ascot?
Just so I get my checklist
straight, you held hands
with your uncle, you slow-danced
with your uncle, your father
touched you, and you sat
on your father's lap,
Holland. Is there
something you want to tell me?
You know what?
You are twisting,
innocent, purely innocent
interactions between family members
and making them creepy and erotic and weird.
There is nothing at all
that was inappropriate about anything I said.
Let me ask you this, Arland.
Okay?
Have you ever been to church, Arland?
Of course.
And your priest?
What about him?
Were you ever a little?
Alone with your priest, Arnold.
What do you mean alone?
I don't know.
Maybe talking to him in a hallway
or you accidentally were in the bathroom at the church
and the priest came in to leave himself?
Yes, I've talked to him in the hallway,
and there was a time I remember where I was in the bathroom
and the priest came in.
And I wondered in my head, I was like,
it must be tough to go to the bathroom
when you got that long robot, I remember.
huh what so you were alone in a men's room with your priest holland okay whoa whoa whoa ascot back it up is that what he said what back it up holland what
he did not say back it up what are you getting at what was he getting at holland all right you know what did he touch you in the bathroom holland get out of here i want you out of here i want you out of here
right the hell now.
I want to know if he put
the hand dryer on, Holland.
Yes, he washed
his hands and he put the hand dryer
on. Were you standing
close to it? Yes.
So you were
watching him get blown in the
bathroom, Holland.
He wasn't getting blown.
What was coming out of the hand dryer
Holland? I don't know.
It was blowing hot air?
Blow job with a priest
Holland. I did not have a blowjob with a priest. Get out of here. Freak!
Holland, I want you to confess your sick. Get out! Blow job with a priest sitting on your father's
lap, slow dancing with your uncle. Is there anything? Get out of here, ascot! Unbelievable!
What a sickoid man! Roger, why didn't you tell me he was coming in for a freaking
That was sick.
What a...
Go to a commercial, man.
I need to wash off.
Get me some wet naps or something.
What a creep.
Ugh.
Holding out on your mother?
What?
You never told me Massengill douche has effectol.
I just bought it.
Only Massengill has effectol for effective douching any time of the month.
Massengill adds effector to all three fragrances
for a clean, fresh feeling of gentle, effective ducing.
dushing.
I've always liked Massengill's more comfortable slanted design.
And only Massengill has effect all for effective douching any time of the month.
Trust Massengill, the leader for 74 years.
All right, let's shift gears.
I did something I haven't done in a while last night.
I went out to the club.
Anybody go out to the club?
I went to the club, man.
The club!
And it's interesting, man.
It's such an interesting dynamic.
you go out to the club
you know
it's like the music stumping
and I've talked about this before
I found it horrifying
but every
I'm not kidding
every third word
out of every song
was the word
and pardon me for saying this
but I'm just repeating what I heard
the end word
okay
every
damn third fourth lyric
was the end word
and
And what's funny, I've talked about this before, that the club was filled mostly with white kids.
And the white kids are lip syncing.
They know every word, and they're lip syncing the end word all over the place.
And I just find it disgusting.
Okay, so that's that part of it.
But the good side is, you know, the energy's fun.
People are up.
People are having fun.
People are dancing.
People are, you know, jumping around, laughing.
It's a little, the part I hate is trying to talk.
You kind of just have to stand there and look at each other like zombies.
Like, you do a lot of weird facial expressions and eye movements and hand gestures
because you can barely talk.
You can't hear each other.
So you and your friends and anyone you meet turn into Marcel Marceau, the mime expert, right?
The famous mime from Paris, Marcel Marceau.
You're like, they're like winking and nice.
nodding and rolling your eyes and making bug eyes and just lip syncing and hoping your
friend's a lip reader and oh my god it's messy but it's interesting all the attitudes at the club
too because you got the people that are just like fired up and they're there and they're just
full of energy and they don't care and they're having fun and then you got the the poser people
who are kind of like dressed to the nines and they're you know they're they're they're they're
looking around to see who's looking at them.
And then you got the girls with the tight clothing
and you got the dudes with the tight t-shirts
and the gelled hair.
Oh, my God.
Then you get the people with attitude
that act like, oh, I don't want to be here, you know.
They're just standing there looking frumpy.
And they're looking like they're too good for the place.
They're too good for everyone here.
It's like, get the hell out of here if you don't want to be here.
and so it's a really interesting dichotomy and people are like pounding back the liquor
and it's just fun it's interesting it's such an odd environment where people come together
and commune and get rowdy and energetic and you know so there you go nothing nothing fantastical happened
You know, I went there with my buddy Tom Green
And we were just, you know, we had a show at the comedy store on sunset.
We both did stand-up shows there.
And we were like, let's go get a drink, man.
And we hung out.
You know, we got the old wait, the bartenders recognized us
And gave us some free drinks and, you know, made us feel a little special.
But the reality is, me and Tom are getting older now.
And that was one of the odd things about,
going to the club.
It's like, you know, when I used to go to the club 10, 15 years ago,
it's like everyone's like, oh, hey, well, you know, everyone recognized me.
Now it's like a lot of these people at the club are too young to recognize me or Tom.
And so that's kind of a weird thing, the getting older thing.
But it's humbling and it's also fun just to be around that, that youthful energy,
the exuberance and the
So there you go.
Good times at the club.
And speaking of good times,
I want to segue into,
I told you guys last podcast
that we were going to be announcing
my new Disney animated show
called Puppy Dog Pals.
Well, guess what?
We went out last Thursday.
We did a press junket.
We went and showed some episodes
to some kids at some schools.
We went on live on
news we took we went to people magazine and we took a bunch of puppies for them to play with we took
like 15 pug puppies and it's amazing to watch people's faces i tell you we took those puppies into
to the kids we took the puppies into the to the folks of people magazine we took the puppies
into the headquarters at disney and we literally had about 15 pug puppies black ones and brown ones and
We had a little gate we put up like a circular pen,
and people could go in and sit with the puppies.
And I'll tell you what, forget the United Nations, man.
I mean, the look on these people's faces when they saw the puppies,
people were like, oh my God, no way.
Even the guys.
Like, people were just smiling, and they were infatuated with these puppies running around.
And I was able to stand back and watch everyone's faces.
And it was just beautiful because everyone's bullshit just faded away.
Everyone's drama, everyone's stress, everyone's problems, everyone's differences.
And that's why I say, forget the UN.
That's what they should just go to the UN and drop 15 or 30 puppies in the middle of the room
and watch Iran and Afghanistan and America and France and Germany and,
North Korea and South Korea and Israel and everyone just gather around.
And I tell you what, man, it makes it makes the world forget about all the trauma,
all the, all the animosities, all the wars, all the politics, all the social hostilities.
The puppies just melt it away like hot water.
on ice, man.
It was a thing of beauty to see.
It was just people are
mesmerized and captivated, laughing, smiling,
hugging, touching, petting.
I mean, it's just incredible
the power of lovable, innocent puppies.
I'm serious, that's what they got to do
at the UN, just plop puppies down.
So anyways, my Disney show is about
two pug puppies, bingo and roly,
and they go on adventures all over the world
and dare I say more, let me play you the trailer.
And this trailer, by the way, if you want to see the trailer,
you can go to my website, harlandwilliams.com, and watch it,
but for now I'll just play you the audio
and you can get a little bit of flavor for the show.
You can hear the voices of the main characters, bingo and roly.
You'll hear me in there.
I'm the only human voice.
I do the voice of Bob, their owner.
And then you'll hear the voice of Arf.
Arf is a robot butler dog that the pugs have.
And that's voiced by Tom Kenney, the guy who does the voice of SpongeBob SquarePants.
So here it is, folks.
The first listen to my brand new Disney show, Puppy Dog Pals.
Hope you enjoy it.
You ready for Lift Off Rolley?
Disney Jr. presents a new series.
With two puffs.
I'm flying.
Who know what's up.
I'm falling!
Ugh, Rowley!
Bingo, the bug with the plan!
Hey, pup!
Roli, the Sunnyside Pug!
This smells nice. What is it?
Glenn.
Okay.
They're taking on all kinds of adventures.
Now's the wow, Bingo.
Whether it's around the house.
Who's your first?
We need you to be the shark monster.
I don't want to be a shark monster.
Way far away!
Hawaii!
I would love to feel that sand on my toes.
We need to go there, get some sand, bring it back so as toes.
will be.
Yay!
Or this.
Auto-doggy robotic friend.
Would you like Arf to bring you a treat?
Come on, Rowley.
You and I are going on a mission.
Let's go!
Erf!
I got it!
Yeah!
Time to collar up.
Yahoo!
So come!
Here it could take a lot of.
Sit.
Arf wants to sit in a circle with you and sing.
And stay.
Mmm.
Because these bugs...
It's bowels.
Are off the leash.
Sorry.
That's okay.
Puppy Dog Douse.
This premieres Friday morning, April 14th, the 1030 over on Disney Channel.
Let's do it again.
So there you go, April 14th.
That's when it premieres, everybody.
I'm very excited.
I hope you tune in if you have nieces, nephews, sons, daughters.
This show is aimed for, believe it or not, it's like the two-year-old to, like, six-year-old age group.
But the show is really, you know, being objective standing back.
It's watchable by anyone.
I mean, it really is, it's not overly kidsy.
It's not preachy.
It's not like there's a little lesson and everything.
It's just like a fun time with these two adorable pugs going on these wacky adventures.
And each episode has a little song in it where the dogs sing and dance and it's cute as cute.
So if you thought the trailer, the promo clip sounded cute, wait do you see what they look like?
So as I said, if you want to see what you just heard, go to harlomewilms.com,
and it's right there on my homepage.
As soon as you load into my site, you'll see it.
So I hope you enjoy it, and it's been a long project, six years in the making.
But it's finally here, 50 episodes, and it's going out all over the world.
Disney tells me it's going out to like 148 countries or something like that on April 14th.
So, and they're making toys.
They're getting toys ready,
and you're going to be able to start buying puppy dog pals toys in the summer.
And it's just really cool.
So my appreciation to Disney and our amazing cast and crew and our writers and our, oh, the animators, everybody.
Just a superb job.
I'm really happy with the look of it.
It just came out.
It came out.
It looks like a Pixar movie.
It looks like a cut above your standard.
Saturday morning animation.
It's really done well.
So have a look and look forward to your feedback.
