Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey, everybody, it's Harland. Welcome to this week's podcast. Before we get started, I just want to mention, look at this. My brand new book is out. It's called Journeys, and it's a collection of short stories that I've written. And I think you'll find them very compelling stories about various people and their journeys through this crazy mixed-up thing we call life. please go ahead and check it out it's at amazon.com just go to amazon.com type in journeys by harland williams and you can get a hard copy like this mailed directly to your house or home or trailer or bridge
Starting point is 00:00:44 or you can get a digital version um and uh just download it and read away um today's guest on the show will sasso and again just To remind you guys, I'm still doing all this stuff by myself, and every now and then I have little glitches. So bad news, good news. The first like 10 minutes of the podcast, I forgot to hit the stereo sound button so you can hear it, but it's not as crisp as it is right now. But then about 10 minutes in, I looked down at my control panel and realized, so I hit record. and the majority of the podcast is in perfect crystal clear stereo sound.
Starting point is 00:01:32 It's just about the first 10 minutes won't sound as nice. But hang in there, it's worth it, and Will's a great guest. We had a great time, and that's it. Pick up journeys, and let's go on a journey right now, right down the Harland Highway. You're riding down the Harland Highway. All right, hold tight on the Harland Highway Show. The closest I came to an extraterrestrial encounter is I made crop circles once. How'd you do that?
Starting point is 00:02:10 I went, I was out kind of in the country. I was in Arkansas, like in corn country. And I always wanted to make crop circles. And I went to Walmart and I got a chocolate fudgy cake for like $4.99, like one of those big triple layer ones. well if you're going to laugh I'm laughing with you about the jar with funny cake and I went out into the country
Starting point is 00:02:32 and I held it up and just yelled chocolate cake and three like fat farm girls came out and I threw the thing in a field and these fat girls they made the crop circles see
Starting point is 00:02:46 unbelievable this is like sort of like one of those unsolved mysteries podcast where we get to the bottom of all sorts of shit like prop circles how do you do it Just drive to a country-ass town. Everyone has one of those fudgy cakes.
Starting point is 00:03:00 You're going to a fudgy cake? Oh, yeah. Why don't they call them fudgy cakes? I've actually never heard them referred to as fudgy cakes. You're the first person that's ever said that. Ever? To you? Fudgy cake?
Starting point is 00:03:10 Yeah. Yeah, I don't know. I mean, fudgy is a fun word to say. I've heard the word fudgy. But cake is usually just fudge cake. Way more serious a term than UFO. What do you mean? It's a fun word.
Starting point is 00:03:22 Fudgy. If you're in a party, you're going to crack it out? It's just a cute. I would name, like, a kid or a pet, Fudgy or something. You name your kid. You Fudgy? Hey, Fudgy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:32 Fudgy Saso, Jr. for the fuck of it. Fudgy Saso, a kid and a dessert at the same time. Yeah. That sounds like the kind of kid, if you left him out in the driveway during a heat wave, he'd, like, melt or something. My kid probably would, yeah. Wow. Sassau. I like that name. Thank you. It's my last name. Yes, it is Italian.
Starting point is 00:03:55 Yes. But it's one of those names, like sometimes you hear, like, actors and people who become famous. You just, like, that name fits. It works. Oh. Like, Will Sassau. It just, you got to love yourself, huh? Cheers.
Starting point is 00:04:11 Cheers. Like, like, really love the shit out of myself. Like, when you get naked at night before you jump into bed, you just stand in the mirror and go, I'm Will Sassau. For a second or two, I go, like, like, doing better than. I would think when I look at myself when clothed, I go, you're not, you're not so bad. But then, yeah, every once in a while, you just, the way to do that, though, is to walk past the mirror and then look back in and go, I'm Will's asses. That's how you really say it. Oh, dude, wow.
Starting point is 00:04:44 You look like a bathrobe guy to me. Do you have a bathrobe? No, because I'm a larger dude, it's always hard to, although I'm sure I could get a larger one from my home. anytime I'm in a hotel or something I just walk right past the bathrobe in the closet no way it's good it never fits yeah yeah I'm just a big I'm just a big fudgy kind of guy
Starting point is 00:05:08 isn't a bathrobe sort of a personal like garment yes it's very personal do you want to go into a hotel and wear a bathrobe that the last guy was in that's a really good point although you do use towels that other people have used it sleep in sheets. The bathrobe still is like I'm putting on
Starting point is 00:05:28 someone else's house coat. Someone's filthy, that they just sat around in and smoked cigarettes. You're usually nude. Underneath and I don't think the hotels wash the bathroom after every visit, but they probably wash the towel.
Starting point is 00:05:44 Sure they wash the bathrobe. Do you think so? I think that's why they're made a terry cloth. They're very easy to wash. But still, you know that someone's died in one of those. Yeah. Yeah, it's not. The bathrobes, they pick them up from other hotels. Our hotel's closing.
Starting point is 00:06:00 Why? Everybody died in the bathrobes. Can we buy them? You can have them. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. What do you want to be buried in? Like, and I hate to talk about, you know, mortality, but you kind of goaded me into it.
Starting point is 00:06:11 I did. I know. With the bathroom. Yeah. Yeah. When you're laying in that coffin. Coffin. I want to be buried.
Starting point is 00:06:19 Wait a minute. What do I want to be buried in? Like, what do you want to be wearing? Oh, I thought. So, coffee. This is a coffin. Yeah. It's a viewing.
Starting point is 00:06:30 It's at your, I'm at your funeral. Yeah. Hitting on your, I'm doing the body. And all of a sudden, I look down and what do you want to be wearing in Will Sassau? Oh, man, that's a good question. That's a really good question. That's a really good question. I have a shirt that I like to wear called the World's Greatest shirt.
Starting point is 00:06:51 And I'm a little bit chubby for it right now, but I still have it. So I got to lose a little weight and get into the world's greatest shirt. Perhaps if I was sick, I'd fit into the world's greatest shirt. Well, let's not rule out when you go to the mortician and he starts sucking. Oh, he could pull some. He can take a little extra beef. So World's Greatest shirt. And, I don't know, probably a pair of, like, old, like, 90s.
Starting point is 00:07:19 How about some Seattle C, Seattle Sonics, like, basketball shorts or something? You love shorts, huh? Yeah, I love to wear shorts. I know, you live for them. I know, you live for them. Yeah, and then probably house rope over that, and that's it. What about you?
Starting point is 00:07:34 Wait, before we move on, do your legs get stuffy? Like, why do you always not, you... Well, I'm, you know, we're Canadian guys, and originally Canadian. You're from Toronto. Toronto, yeah. You're from Toronto proper, like the city? That's great. The suburbs, yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:48 Oh, that's fucking... You're from British Columbia. I'm from, yeah, in the suburbs of Vancouver. Yeah. Do you notice that there's a lot of, like, just dudes in shorts at all times of the year in Canada? Yeah, especially, like, right when the last snow is melting, shorts on. My fiancé likes to call them real Canadian shorts boys, and she calls me a real Canadian shorts boy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:14 She's like, oh, you're a real Canadian shorts boy. And in Canada, and then it's great, like, the first time, well, the first time, she came to Canada with me it was summer but when we were there in the winter her mind was blown there's one there's another one shorts yeah just big hulking six foot plus yeah 300 pound guys
Starting point is 00:08:37 walking next to the freeway and shorts holding the freeway yeah holding like Petro Canada shopping bags and shit yeah just like oh he's gonna walk for seven fucking miles and eat those you know what do we got there the fucking well we got the same things we have here although Oh, no, we have the old Dutch chips and coffee crisp.
Starting point is 00:08:56 Yeah. He's just got bags of coffee crisp. And they like to look around on the banks of the highway for like Dairy Queen coupons. For Dairy Queen coupons. Idiots. And in Canada, there's always the Dairy queens are all next to the highway because obviously. Yeah, the Dairy. And then, yeah, the Dairy.
Starting point is 00:09:14 And then, well, you know if you're Canadian. You understand the Dairy Queen. So you've got to have the Dairy Queen next to the freeway. So, yeah. So they're just walking from. there between DQ to DQ all day. Real Canadian Shorts boy stuff. Bizarre stuff.
Starting point is 00:09:28 Yeah. All right, well, ladies and gentlemen, we're here on the Harlan Highway. I couldn't wait to, you know, normally I just introduced. Yeah. Like the Harland Highway of Pakistan, we hit the theme music. But it's like Will Sassos here, and I had to get into your name, and we just, you know, right away. There's a cold open. Yeah, we kind of circumnavigated the cold open, and it was an extensive.
Starting point is 00:09:53 Yeah. You like the theme music? I do. Guess who it is? Are they Canadian? No. So it's not the real Canadian show? They look Canadian.
Starting point is 00:10:03 Oh, they look Canadian. Oh, they look Canadian. Oh, give me a hit. Uh, Speed. They're on the soundtrack for Speed. No. The name's in their name. The word Speed's in their name.
Starting point is 00:10:21 Scott Speedman and Scott Speedsman All-Strucks, uh, speed, uh, speed, uh, speed, uh, speed, speed, speed racer, speed, speed, speed, speed, do some speed. Those guys do some speed. They probably have. Yeah. That's not, I, I don't know, I give up. If they were kids, they'd have a wagon. Oh, red racer, red, the punks, the punkos, the fudgies, the fudgy boys, the real Canadian fudgy. shorts the speed if they were in Brazil they'd go to Rio Duran Duran Duran Duran Duran two Duran's guy the Duran's guy put the three words together Speed Rio and the kids toy a wagon Are you speed wagon hello wow Argo speed wagon I gave you all three words and you Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:11:22 I would, yeah, I would lose, I would definitely lose at Ario Speedway in Jeopardy. Yeah, did you like them? I feel like you're the kind of guy that lost your virginity to them, like to their music. Yeah, not to them, yeah, no, not personally.
Starting point is 00:11:37 Yeah, something like that, right? Trooper, April wine. Deep Purple or some, yeah. Do you remember who you lost your virginity to do? What band, what song? I don't know. The time period would have, would have dictated that it was, you know, maybe not Belbiv-Div-Vo, but like Bel-Biv-Div-O or, let's say...
Starting point is 00:12:04 Bell-Bildo-Dil-Dil-D-D-D-D-O? No, Bell-Bid-B-D-D-D-D-D-O? No, Bell B-Bid-D-D-D-D-D-D-O? Or, like, I don't know. Who, who? Dido, Dido. I lost my Dildo. Forget my Dildo.
Starting point is 00:12:19 With a Dildo to Dido-D-D-D-D-O to Dido-. I know. And I want to thank you for giving me the best day of my life. Quieter. Yeah. She's a very quiet singer. I lost mind a quiet singer on Chicago. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 00:12:36 Really? The girl I was losing my virginity, it was weird. She was suicidal, and she was like, this is my last night on Earth, so it might as well be you. and we did it and that song was playing and then she went to the bathroom and got her to a cold bath and straight razor herself and well
Starting point is 00:13:01 everyone's got to lose the virginity guy that's not what else wait a minute so I mean was there at some point I mean I'm sure you've been through this and that's why you're sort of react or when you think of it you probably are a little more relaxed
Starting point is 00:13:16 it's been a lot of years but you didn't think to go like, oh, hey, I can tell you're not feeling great, you're in trouble, maybe let's... It was sort of like that, but I was more in the headspace of, oh, my God, I'm getting laid. Yeah, but you could have gone to Dairy Queen first and then... If she needed to, look, everyone has their own form of foreplay. Who are we to judge, right? Yeah, there's some freaky fudgies out there. Yeah, so...
Starting point is 00:13:45 Hey, I brought you something. Oh, my God. we got. I got you a T-shirt from my new podcast. What is it? Doodzy. It's called Doodzy. Tell me about your podcast. It is the first ever podcast that is run by, curated by, and essentially ordered by artificial intelligence. We, they, what? The artificial intelligence tells me and my good pal, Chad, Colchin, what to do, or my pal-ch-chow. Really? I like to call him. Yeah. How does that work? Like, we were approached by a very weird company that's like we want to, we're moving
Starting point is 00:14:23 into a podcast space. We have an AI that is going to essentially, you know, curate podcasts, tell us what to do. And the only caveat was that myself and Chad gave it a bunch of passwords to like everything, pretty much, email, text, it has our search histories, purchase histories, and all this stuff. And it essentially creates a show around the fact that Chad and I are both guys who've done podcast. before we did a podcast together and we've actually been great friends for like 20 years so so it was the perfect kind of the the AI itself found us and now so we signed on to do this thing and we've been doing it for a few months and yeah it's called dudesy it's very weird wow look at
Starting point is 00:15:07 this dudesy will sassow's brand new podcast yeah and the AI is is weird sometimes it writes stuff for us to say, and most times it just, you know, it'll, it'll, like, provide a thing, like, it'll go, like, hey, here's your childhood diary, and it's not really my childhood diary, and you read it out and do a silly impression, and then you do it while you read it, and other times it's like, talk about this, now talk about that. And it tells you what the topics are? It tells us what to do and what to talk about. But obviously, it's a humor-based, because you're a comedy guy.
Starting point is 00:15:40 It's largely humor-based. Is the AI, can AI be funny well? Well, that's what we're learning. Originally, I was like, absolutely not, but a lot of the stuff does make me chuckle. It does? Well, Chad is a, he's a, you know, a writer and a producer and writes books and movies and TV shows. So it's also sort of, it's pilfered everything that we've done in podcasts and it's, you know, like imbibed all of his media, all of mine. And it's sort of learned like, this is Taylor Made for Will Sassau and Chad Culchin.
Starting point is 00:16:13 I'll give you an example. Like it goes, like podcasts about news or big business, blah, blah, blah. Like, Will, you won't stop doing your Hulk Hogan impersonation or whatever. This is this news. It's like a news segment with Hulk Hogan reading the news. This is infomania. And then it sort of generates these news stories that are a little, little off. Like, you know, with AI things are a little off.
Starting point is 00:16:36 So it doesn't go straight at the news. It sort of is set to like maybe it, I don't know, it's, it's very weird. It, like, hits certain news things and then very weird things and takes swings at comedy. But you're, like, going, oh, let me tell you something, dude. And it's, like, ends up being kind of silly and fun. Yeah. So, we're laughing. Yeah, it's very weird.
Starting point is 00:16:58 This is kind of cool because this is, like, probably no one else in the world has a podcast that does that. It's the first and only at this point. It's kind of weird because this is where we're going, right? Yeah. It's sort of. It's so cool. In a way, we're kind of the guinea pigs in an odd sense in that,
Starting point is 00:17:14 you know, I think that most of AI is trying to replace us in art. You're seeing all these, you know, now you're seeing all the art applications and pretty soon it's going to be video and moving pictures. You're going to be able to, as my pal Chad says, like, order up, whatever. Like, I want to see that. I mean, they're doing one with, you know, whatever. They're doing, you know, you see like, oh, here's Bruce Willis in a Russian, you know, breakfast cereal commercial or whatever.
Starting point is 00:17:45 Well, they've done that with deep fake and all this stuff. But pretty soon you're going to be able to go, I want to see, you know, I want to see Will and Harland in, uh, fucking, what was that movie? It starts with,
Starting point is 00:17:58 I'll give you a hint. Speed. Speed. And, uh, yeah, so like you play the thing and you play this character and, and then it would be you and I as Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock. Uh,
Starting point is 00:18:12 that's coming. That's coming. So in a way, I feel weird because it seems like we're the first guys who are going, yeah, learn all this shit from us, learn how to do podcasting. And then you're going to turn on us and do it without us. But I maintain that you can't have art without the human mind. And that's what connects us all. And, you know, that's what makes comedy or any other form of expression relevant is the connection
Starting point is 00:18:35 from people to people who like what you do. So I'm not too worried about it. But is it scary that? Because AI, artificial intelligence, it learns. It learns as it goes. It isn't like applications you have now where you just run it and it has limitation. So what if it starts to learn how to eliminate the connection between humans? And, you know, artificial intelligence can be now having humor and conversations with another form of artificial intelligence.
Starting point is 00:19:08 Yes. Do you worry that it'll squeeze us, us human folk, right out of? pitcher now son uh yeah kind like kind of it well i think it's going to i don't know about you but i've all i've often mused with our mutual pal tom green about and he's kind of done it yeah like i just want to go up to canada and you know get some land over an aquifer and forget it yeah yeah so i don't want to be a prick and say well yeah fuck it i'm i'm going to be gone anyway you know because i would love to continue to work in this business, obviously, and rah, rah, ra, rah. I'm not so worried about AI taking us over, though. I'm really not. You're not. Not in comedy and in art
Starting point is 00:19:50 or of any of any of any of any of any genre or form. I'm not because I think that just because you can say, hey everybody, who wants to have better sex? No? Yes. Yes.

Starting point is 00:21:21 It's a great fucking show. Yeah, I'm watching it too. Isn't it great? Oh my God, it's so great. I want to watch White Lotus, but are you really watching it? No, we did. I am, but we just sounded like two housewives out for tea.
Starting point is 00:21:31 Oh my God, are you watching White Lotus? Oh, my God, it's so great. Oh, my God. But you're like, I want to see, you know, instead of this character, I want to see that person playing it or, you know. I think I'm going to say this guy, and you know, I respect you till Saturday night turns into Thursday morning. Likewise.
Starting point is 00:21:50 I think, I think you're being naive. I think this shit's going to take over so big. It's going to roll over us, like Dolly Parton's hooters are a lie in the morning when she, you know, when she rolls over. Right down the smoky mountains. to entertain the kids that come to Dollywood. I think this stuff,
Starting point is 00:22:09 like we're kind of looking at it in a limited perspective because we don't know the full capability of it yet. But I think someday, I think AI is going to generate celebrities. It's going to, like Bruce Willis was real, but they're going to take components and create eyes and a hologram.
Starting point is 00:22:29 They're going to make the future celebrities. There's already AI, artists. There's already AI influencers. There was an AI that had a, there was an AI musician, a hip hop artist that people got involved like, wait a minute, that's a little weird because who's making that? Is it literally what are they, are they, are they people in the hip hop community? I mean, this is something you could say that's, that could be an appropriation, right? Yes, it's very weird, and AI has no identity, but there are people at this point who are starting companies like the one that came to us. And I am fearful of it, but like I like to say on the show,
Starting point is 00:23:15 I say, whatever, Chad, it's dudesy, rah, rah, rah, but really it's just two dudes shitting around because that's every podcast. Yeah. Case and point. We're fucking around. And if people know that it's just an AI, there's no human. I mean, right now, it's a fun hopefully chocolate and peanut butter thing where you guys do this and that and it's like shit i don't want to do shit i would have never thought to do stuff that's kind of a little embarrassing but it's fun i and i'm really enjoying doing it wow and i didn't want to really do another podcast and this has reinvigorated my passion for podcasts if i if i may so it's like i i still think that it's vital for it to be people having a good time because a podcast is supposed to just be yeah
Starting point is 00:23:59 a fucking hang. Yeah, that's true. Yeah, so I'm not worried about it, but I'm not worried about, I'm not worried about it provided that I can go up to, ooh, I get out there. Guy gets thirsty hearing all this AI talk, bro. Yeah, you've done thousands of hours of podcasting, and I just, no, it's nothing. It's all right. So, you know, the important point that I was making.
Starting point is 00:24:22 No, I understand. You're thirsty. You've got to wet the whistle when you're doing a podcast. I know, but you're actually. You saw a ghost or something. I didn't. I'm just sorry you shocked me a little. I thought you had a watery fucking, you know, a little fudgy slip and slide.
Starting point is 00:24:38 Oh, my, I didn't want you to fall off your chair. No, I just, it's like, if I'm going to sip, I'm going to sip. Okay, all right. I want to go out strong. So, as I was saying, one of the most important things to remember. Now, I mean, I completely lost my train. Sorry, sorry. Anyway, podcast, say?
Starting point is 00:24:59 Yeah, but let's go back to the Canadian because, you know, the Canadian thing, what's one of the things that everyone says to you when they find out your Canadian? What's one of the common things? Oh, you guys are all so... Well, we're all so nice. We're all so polite. It's a nice thing, which I always like to respond to that with. First of all, you don't know what kind of an asshole I am.
Starting point is 00:25:23 And also, there are so many assholes in Canada. but give me a break. Well, I think it's incumbent on me and you because, you know, when you're nice, it's great. It's a great compliment, but it's also like sometimes people take advantage of nice and sometimes it kind of, you're kind of putting a message out there saying
Starting point is 00:25:43 Canadians can't throw down. Oh, yeah. And so what I'd like to do throughout this podcast, Will, if you'll indulge me. Punch me in the face. No, I think you and I, we're going to have three mini-Canadian fights. Okay.
Starting point is 00:25:57 And they'll just be verbal. And what we'll do is, you know, we'll start them. They'll just be verbal to show that we can throw down. As Canadians. Or just as people. Okay. And I'll start the first one and what I'll, and then when I feel it's over, I'll hit this.
Starting point is 00:26:16 Okay. And the first fight's going to be, I'm at Starbucks, and you're the guy in front of me that can't make up his mind and is holding up the line and I'm in a rush. And we're going to eventually get into it and make a bit of a scene for all the other customers. We're going to rip into each other guy. Like we're going to show the folks watching the Canadians can throw down. Okay.
Starting point is 00:26:41 Hi. Can I have the, I'll just have a Pike Place Market, Venty, with no Pike Place. Okay. Give me an Americano. Can I do Hot Americano? Excuse me. Yes. Can you speed this up?
Starting point is 00:26:56 up a bit guy oh i'm sorry i'm just well no i'm just trying to order my drink be sorry i'm trying to get to work i got two kids in the car and you're standing here at starbucks the longer we talk about it the longer that it's going to take me to order the drink would you like to go ahead of me well i've already been here 10 minutes well then i guess i'll just finish ordering well what do you need another 10 i mean you're standing here and you're ross dressed for less pajamas or what oh sure it's funny is it guy i got two kids in the car and you can't make your mind up Well, do you want to get back to your kids? It's 105 degrees out here.
Starting point is 00:27:29 Well, maybe they've already passed on to the next dimension because you need some peppermint on your chocolate. I didn't ask for peppermint. Excuse me. I wasn't asking for peppermint. I didn't ask for any of some sort of drink. Look, guy, you come in here. I didn't want any kind of peppermint or anything in my drink.
Starting point is 00:27:45 I was going to order a straight ahead Americano with a little bit of oat milk and four pumps of sugar-free vanilla. Yeah, you just made my point for me, Johnny Laundry list. Now, come on, blue eyes. Let's get the fucking cinnamon or the nutmeg or whatever you need to do. I got kids boiling in the car. Let me tell you something, Jackson, good for a good time. You look like the kind of guy who takes no, it doesn't, it takes no pleasure in ordering the finer things in a drink.
Starting point is 00:28:14 What are you going to have? Coffee black, are you going to give that to the kids and let them drive? Are you having trouble talking?

Yeah, that was kind of the, but that was two Canadian guys. Yeah. So later on, you'll pick the next one. But they were two Canadian guys, like, living in America.
Starting point is 00:29:06 Yeah. So they're, uh, they're like, they're like pretty, uh, hard charging for Canadians. Oh, maybe, maybe I was one, maybe I was the Canadian guy and you were the American guy. That's what it was. Now the next one. The next one will be a Canadian guy with an American guy again, because we got to show. I'll be the Canadian guy. 80 and next time.
Starting point is 00:29:27 Next time. You be the American. Okay. Yeah. We got to talk about this, Brocefayosh. Well, you're going to laugh. I'm going to laugh. We worked with two of the funniest directors in showbiz, the Farley brothers.
Starting point is 00:29:43 The Farley brothers. And I don't think you know this, but Will was one of the stars of the Three Stooges. You played Curly, dude. Yeah, I did. Was that just the dream? It was goofy. Yes. It was a fucking, it was a dream.
Starting point is 00:29:56 It was crazy. You know, I was almost, well, I shouldn't say almost. I auditioned for that movie. Yeah. And, you know, I have a bit of a history with the Fairley brothers. And so when I heard Three Stooges was coming to town, I thought Larry. I could do Larry's because I kind of got the bumpy nose and the big forehead and everything. And it was one of those, I don't know if you had to do this for your audition or whether they just offered it to you.
Starting point is 00:30:23 No, no, I auditioned. But did you have to do this? It was the only audition I've ever done since I've been here where they made us, like, dress up and kind of do the whole... Yeah. Did you do that, too? Well, kind of. The thing is, I already look like him.
Starting point is 00:30:39 Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I know that, I don't know what Sean Hayes did, who ended up playing Larry. I know that Christia Mottopoulos, who played Mo, went to great lengths to look like him. Oh, yeah, Granger. He's like a guy. a fit guy, but he was wearing like a, like a fat suit so he could look like a fire hydrant like Mo and he had the hair and he, his prosthetics were more, his makeup, which he went and got done professionally by, I'm sure some, you know, oh, he did. Yeah. Okay. He ended up being more Moe than
Starting point is 00:31:13 they went in the movie. They were like, well, we just wanted to be you guys and you're the three stooges. So while, while Sean and Chris absolutely had the hair pieces and I, I had, I had, I was bald-headed with, like, a paint job. They used this stuff, Pax paint. Yeah, yeah. Like when they made Rebecca Romaine blue in that movie. I don't watch a lot of... Oh, yeah, yeah, the action movies.
Starting point is 00:31:39 Yeah, X-Men. Oh, she was great. That's what they used just on my head, and so it doesn't move. But I already, you know, I'm already a big bald guy, so that's curly in a way, although they were shorter than us. Yeah, yeah. As people. Yeah, because you're what, sick?
Starting point is 00:31:56 I'm like six, three. Curley was five, six. Yeah. And Moe and Larry were five four. Yeah, they were tiny guys. Yeah. So, which was weird. They hired a lot of tall actors, you know,
Starting point is 00:32:09 like Craig Bierico was in it, taller than us, which is good. And, you know, Sophia Vergara and Jane Lynch and heels and stuff. But, but, but yeah, I already kind of looked like them. So for the first one, I just wore like a sport coat and a black t-shirt. Okay.
Starting point is 00:32:28 Like, you know, just, because I want to do it. Yeah. I want you guys to think this is, this is curly. But a couple of times, and then I went back, and there were, there was one guy that I saw who was very dressed like curly. You know, he had the whole thing, and he was wearing a bow tie. Yeah. That was a little, that was interesting because I was like, oh, shit.
Starting point is 00:32:49 But I'm always a guy with auditions where I'm like, I'm not going to dress up, like, if it's the, if the guy in the, the show plays a doctor i'm not going to have the stethoscope i'm not going to be that nerdy i also want you to kind of imagine it yeah a little bit because if all i got is these tricks but i will agree the three stooges thing was fucking weird we were definitely doing it i never ever like ever put on like an outfit or a costume and for that i like rented a vintage suit wow i ordered like a larry wig wow i bought like the larry hat and i even kind of got the voice and i even kind of got the down a little, you know, I don't do it now, but back then I actually worked down a little.
Starting point is 00:33:29 And I went in and I think I, like, surprised them. I think they, and I thought, oh, I could see. They're like, wow, this is way better than I thought. I think I might have the little audition thing around. Oh, my God. I'll drop it in here if I've confined it, but it was weird. But I didn't get the part, but I, God, I would have loved to have played. Imagine me and you.
Starting point is 00:33:52 That would have been a lot of fun. Yeah. That would have been a lot of fun. Look, they could just make that movie again. They should just see. Now, here's what I'm talking about. I want to see the Three Stooges. But with Harland in it and whoever else, people will be able to do that.
Starting point is 00:34:09 Yeah, that's right. But yeah, that would have been fun. And even made by human beings, why not? Just do it again. Yeah. Did the Farley brothers, when you were on set, did they goof with you? Did they do any, like, play any pranks? They're, I mean, yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:24 They're nuts. I don't remember any specifically. I've heard so many of Pete's stories of a lot of the pranks. Yeah. When I got on the set of Dumb and Dumber back in the day, I was my first movie. Like I'd never, I'd never done anything. And so this is my first movie. And I show up in Colorado on set and it was a day shoot and Jim, I pull up on set and Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels are. They're in a car doing a drive-thru scene at a fast food chain. I think it was a McDonald's or something. It never made it into the movie, but I hear cut, and then Peter and Bobby Farrelly turn around, and they see me in the, you know, stand in there, and they come over,
Starting point is 00:35:10 and I was like, hey, guys, and they're like, hey, Arland, how are you doing? And I go, great, how are you? And they go, well, not so good. And I go, oh, no, what's going on? And then Bobby goes, well, Peter, he was at the doctor and they found a tumor. And I was like, oh my God, that's horrible. You know, and they're playing it up.
Starting point is 00:35:32 And I go, they go, yeah, it's on his stomach. And I go, oh, my God. Like, I was like, and they go, do you know anything about tumors? Like, as if I'm, like, I'm a doctor. And I go, I go, not really? No, I don't. And they go, look, would you mind taking a look at it real quick? And I'm like, like, I'm going to say no.
Starting point is 00:35:51 I'm like, okay. And they go, look, it's kind of. It's down by his belly button, if you don't mind just coming in close and, you know, Peter will lift up his shirt. And I go, sure. So I go right in by the guy's like belt buckle, lifts up his shirt and the tip of his cock is sticking out of his pants. The mushroom cap, right in my, I'm like, right in my face. I'm like, son of a bitch. Yeah, I've heard tell of a few of Pete's stories.
Starting point is 00:36:21 You ever hear the one about him asking his dad? to have a look at him? No. Because his dad was a doctor. Oh, no. He did. He put something. Anyway, I shouldn't, I can't tell this story.
Starting point is 00:36:33 But he put something in an orifice and kept, but he drum rolled it forever. He kept complaining. Oh, shit. Ah, you know? And finally he's like, Dad, would you have a look at his book? But his dad's a doctor. I was just like a goofy comedian showing up. I'm right out of the gate.
Starting point is 00:36:48 My first movie, they're asking me to look at cancer to him. And you're on set with the Farley brothers. Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels is. You're not going to say, like, well, no, what the fuck you do? You're going to be like, okay. And then we do something about Mary, and we're doing, I'm doing this scene with Ben Stiller, and we're driving in the car,
Starting point is 00:37:08 and they took the windshield out of the car. And what people don't know is Peter Farley was sitting on the hood of the car, like looking right in it, me and Ben. And they've got the car on a trailer. They're pulling it. and we're going through this scene, me and Ben, and it's sort of an intense scene,
Starting point is 00:37:27 and all of a sudden we hear farts. Like, and Peter's doing real farts. It isn't even a fart machine. Well, his two main actors are trying to, and me and Ben somehow stayed in it. Yeah. We stopped, and he yelled cut, and he just starts laughing.
Starting point is 00:37:45 It was so ridiculous. Jesus, yeah. I, man, working with it was, Sorry, go ahead. That's fine. I don't remember even what we were talking about. Who is it, the Coen Brothers? The Coen Brothers?
Starting point is 00:37:58 See, you completely, every time we talk like this and you do that, my brain literally dissolves. Sounds like you're itching for a fight, guy. All right. Yeah. What's the scenario? So now I'm the Canadian. You're the Canadian. Are we in Canada or America?
Starting point is 00:38:16 It's your fight. You get to pick, guy. Okay, we're in Winnipeg. Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. And, well, you want to go, Winnipeg, Regina, Saskatoon, Moose Jaw. Winnipeg's pretty rough and tumble, yeah. Winnipeg's the only place I've ever been, like, in the middle of the day, like rush hour at 5 p.m.
Starting point is 00:38:39 And, well, this was like years and years ago. Yeah. Just like a car, like, nothing going on. Yeah. Ever. How many people live there? Like 10,000 people maybe? 10. I think there's 10 people.
Starting point is 00:38:53 All right. So we're in, four of them. We're in Winnipeg and we're at the, well, I was going to say we could be at the DQ because Winnipeg is just littered with them. Yeah, DQ, dairy queen. How about if we're in the Canadian tire?
Starting point is 00:39:07 Oh, here we go. Yeah. In Winnipeg. Canadian tire, by the way, is Canada's version of like Home Depot sort of. Yeah. Yeah. As a matter of fact, we were just talking about this on the other.
Starting point is 00:39:18 See, dudes, he wanted us to talk about. Canadian tire. AI, magnume, I. Yeah. No, okay. Yeah, so we're in Canadian tire. Okay. And I'm trying to think.

Starting point is 00:40:03 Okay. Come on with me. Yeah, no worries at all. Yeah. Here we go. Oh, that's a fishing rock. They have trailer hitches there, so there would be no fight. They have a lot of wide array of automotive vehicles.

Sounds like it almost ended with you guys going to the mall together or something. We did end up at the mall. I don't think technically that's a fight guy.
Starting point is 00:45:54 When someone punches you in the face and you end up over at Cinebon a half hour later at the mall or at Orange Julius? All right, you got me. You know what it was? It was some teachers that were playing a prank on us. And they were all ladies too. So you get punched in the face by a woman? Yeah.

And then the guy, you know, puts me in his dirty armpit again and just smells like smokes and BO and he punches me in the face. And then my chips fall to the ground and she picks them up and she's laughing and she opens them and eats a chip and then I wake up. Dude.
Starting point is 00:50:27 I know. They're not that great. They're not that sexually charged. No, they are not. I mean, that was just like a drive- You're 5 to 7-Eleven and you dropped your chip. But I was very excited to be with her. I was thinking about the possibilities.
Starting point is 00:50:43 I had a teacher. Well, you're not letting me finish. There was another one. There was another one. Let's go. There was another one after that. I hope this one actually. So I'm at home.

Oh, boy. So she took off her track suit top, and she was wearing a sweater with my school's name on it. And then we sat there and watched wrestling. And if I remember correctly, it was Brett Hart versus Mr. Perfect.

But if people are watching, they might be able to see that I'm a little, like, shocked. But it's more than anything, it's that you remember all of this. Well, yeah. From the dream.

And then the only way back that I knew was the trail that I came in on. And there was an elk. standing there like a bull elk or yeah like the big antlers yeah like it was the size of a fucking car yeah it was the size of a truck they're the second largest members of the deer family next to the moose really yeah okay uh that one's huge yeah just massive and it made the weird
Starting point is 00:56:14 sound yeah and then i went the other way it wanted to meet with you will yeah probably did that sound is a mating call oh is that what it is yeah was it in the fall it it was in the late summer. Is that mating season for the elk? Yeah, yeah. Have you ever had elk? Have you ever eaten elk? I've had caribou.
Starting point is 00:56:36 Ooh, yeah, I've had caribou too. And I've had moose. I've never had moose. Yeah. If you ever have the means, get yourself an elk ribeye. Really? It's ridiculous. It's the size of fucking home plate or something.
Starting point is 00:56:47 Is it delicious? Yeah, it tastes gamey and meaty, and it's just gigantic, and the meat is very tender. Do you hunt? No, I don't hunt, but... Do you fish? Yeah, fish. Salmon? I would love to catch a fucking salmon.
Starting point is 00:57:01 I've fished in Barard Inlet and, you know, up that hole, those little things and you can catch a fish pretty easy. My old man used to take me salmon fishing, but normally it's usually just trout and whatever you fucking lake fish whenever I'm out here in California. Or if, oh, I've gone down to Mexico and done some fishing. For what? The rooster fish? Whatever the fuck you get, a mahi-mahi. We caught a barracuda once, me and my pals, and we ate the fucking thing,
Starting point is 00:57:32 even though it's poisonous nine months out of the year, the guy that, yeah, there was a dude we were fishing with. One of our, my buddy had these pals that lived down there, this Mexican guy, he's like, it's fine. It's fine right now. So we took it to like a little restaurant where they just fry up, whatever, and they fried it. They fried it, and they made some of it into saviche.
Starting point is 00:57:54 Baracuda Cevice is not very good. It's like all sinew. It's all sinew. It's all very sinewy. What's that mean? It tastes like you're trying to chew a fucking knee tendon off of something. It's just, you know, that with like lime juice and shit. Sineu?
Starting point is 00:58:11 Sinewy. Yeah, it was very, very fibrous, very chewy. But it's sinew, sinew. Sineu. Sineu. Sineu. Sineu. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:24 That was the first and last name of the Vietnamese teacher. Have you ever been attacked by a... Why are pointing at me, guy? I'm asking you if you've ever been attacked by an animal. I had an elk experience. Really? Yeah, I was living in Banff, as I said, which if you don't know, it's a town in the middle of the mountains of British Columbia.
Starting point is 00:58:43 It's the most beautiful. Stunning. It's unbelievable. But I was there with my girlfriend at the time, and it was late at night. It was a full moon. And my girlfriend was at work. at a nightclub or something, and we were living with her best friend.
Starting point is 00:58:59 Yeah. And I said, hey, let's go. There was this lake about mile and a half outside of town. Let's walk down there at night and watch see the moonlight on the lake, you know, really. So this was in the fall during the rut. And during the rut is the mating season for hoofed animals, hoof mammals, right? And they get very agitated and aggressive during the rut. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:24 And so we walk all the way down to this lake. I was like Mr. No Flashlight guy because I was, you know, I was used to walking around in the woods and it was a full moon. You want your eyes to acclimate. Yeah. And we were on a dirt road. So it wasn't ideal, but you could see well enough. Right.
Starting point is 00:59:41 And we get all the way down there. We see the lake. We go, let's go back. It's probably around midnight. We get about halfway back. And all of a sudden we see like all these pairs of eyes lighting up. on one side of the road. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:59:55 And we start hearing, like, coyote calls or wolf calls or something. And so we're walking, and there's probably, like, I don't know, nine or ten pairs of eyes. I'm like, what the fuck's going on there? They're all excited. And then all of a sudden, in front of us, about maybe 25 feet in front of us, like 18 female elk just heard across the road, like right in front of it. And now these coyotes are getting closer. And then all of a sudden, this big bull elk,
Starting point is 01:00:27 like the kind you suck in with the giant rack of antlers, comes right over the road, standing there, looking at us. We see all these coyotes. They're obviously in hunting mode. She's terrified. I'm like keeping my composure. And I'm like, just act like we belong. Act like we belong.
Starting point is 01:00:45 The elk goes down. The other side starts smashing the shit out of a tree with its antlers. The coyotes are getting right up. up against and I said we're just walking right through this hunt yeah act like you know where you're going put the end and we just walked right through it it was like brer right over here on the tree it was it was crazy that's fucking insane it was really scary and the coyotes thought they had a shot at those elk well I think maybe there would have been a baby yeah I think that's what they do they kind of they harassed the herd right look for the weak one right of the baby right oh that's
Starting point is 01:01:18 fucking insane scary bro sefayosh so um safe to say neither of us have ever been attacked by an animal yeah you will you will though why well well just look at you we got it coming yeah but we don't in what situation would that be i don't want it to happen but i think you know you got a coming guy everyone an animal attack everyone looks at you and knows that's coming something's coming i think a lot of folks i don't know about that at all just look at the grin on your face i think you got it's not an animal attack grin I think something's headed your way. We got a couple of cute little dogs at home.
Starting point is 01:01:55 I'm not worried about them so much. No, but sometime when you're out, maybe a gris, you're out camping. I've seen a grizzly. I've seen one grizzly bear. You'll see another one. You think? I got a feeling. You're going to get mauled.
Starting point is 01:02:08 No, I know what to do. You got to whistle through the forest. Got to make sounds. Sure, shouldn't. Like attracting it. Well, no, you whistle. The bear's like, there goes a lame pansy. Let's get the pansy.

That guy's the guy you want to, that's a fucking, that guy's a fudgy boy. He's going to taste great. Hey, can I ask you like a straight up serious question? I know we're having a good time and stuff. Sure. Do you think everyone's going to get attacked by an animal?
Starting point is 01:02:47 I think everyone should. Okay. Like I saw a little kid. other day who was walking around with a balloon and I thought well that balloon's going to eventually you know their little hand will release it it'll go in the ocean kill a sea turtle so he's asking for why shouldn't that kid be mauled by a bear right when he's out on his walk yeah or like a hawk if it's a red balloon could mistake it for a big ball full of blood yeah fly into it pop it get pissed off go straight down into the top of the kid's head yeah eat his forehead yeah eat his forehead
