Harland Williams | Spears and Steinberg Podcast
Notes de l’épisode
Harland Williams joins Aries Spears, Andy Steinberg and Mark Silverstein for one of the most unpredictable episodes yet. The Rocketman star talks about working with a trained chimp, getting mock-charged by a 500-pound silverback in Rwanda, and his days as a Canadian forest ranger dealing with moose and black bears.
Harland also tells the story of his Sheridan College roommate Steve Williams, who went from making "stupid circles" on VHS to creating the digital T-Rex that changed Jurassic Park. Aries and Harland go back and forth on AI, Neuralink and whether art is evolving or devolving, then the conversation turns to comedy: crowd work, memorial tattoos, "punching down," the power of sitting in silence, and why every emerging comic should get to Austin.
Plus: Harland's new animated series The Art Avengers, the comfort slug from The Harland Highway, and who makes Harland laugh.
