The Harland Highway Harland Williams

Harland is one of my favourite comedians because he doesn’t take his comedy too seriously and can be so silly at times. Really a rare figure in comedy, an industry that seems to portray comedians as broken, depressed delinquents.

Harland has always struck a chord with me, every time he appears in a film he totally steals the show, the high way cop in dumb and dumber, the hitch hiker in something about Mary, and the pure joy that is rocket man, if that kind of silly tickles your pickle, then this podcast is for you.

Harland's irreverent humour is refreshing to listen to in a crowd of entertainers who either take themselves too seriously, or completely take what they do too far. While all of his jokes may not hit the mark all of the time, his quirky antics and seemingly ad hoc style provide comfortable, and for a certain audience, incredibly entertaining and sometimes (in his own strange way) insightful comments about society. Recommended if you have a "strange" sense of humour.
