Speaker 1: and iHeartRadio podcast. Hello and welcome to the very first
Speaker 1: episode of How Rude Tanta Ritos, a Full House rewatch podcast.
Speaker 2: I'm Andrea Barber and I am Jody Sweeten, and I
Speaker 2: am so excited to be here with you.
Speaker 3: Ab Jody, are you ready? Are you ready for this?
Speaker 2: I am so ready for this? Are are the Tanner
Speaker 2: Ritos ready for this? And by Tanta Rito's, I'm referring
Speaker 2: to the audience, are.
Speaker 4: They ready for this?
Speaker 3: Ritos? Get ready?
Speaker 4: It's going to be so much fun.
Speaker 3: It's going to be such a wild ride.
Speaker 1: We are going to watch all one hundred and ninety
Speaker 1: two episodes of Full House.
Speaker 3: Jody, have you ever seen an episode of Full House? Ever?
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, I feel like an episode maybe giving
Speaker 2: it too much credit, but I've.
Speaker 4: Seen bits and pieces here and there. For sure.
Speaker 2: I think the pilot is one of the ones that
Speaker 2: I've definitely watched all the way through, but it's been years.
Speaker 2: But other than that, I didn't really watch the show
Speaker 2: What about You.
Speaker 1: I've watched several but like, okay, the narcissistic actor that
Speaker 1: I am, I've only watched the scenes that I'm in, Like,
Speaker 1: I don't watch anybody else's scenes, so, and I wasn't.
Speaker 3: In every episode. I was in like one hundred and
Speaker 3: forty something.
Speaker 1: So I've only seen the episodes that I'm in, and
Speaker 1: I've only seen the scenes that I'm in. So I'm
Speaker 1: excited to see your work too, Jody and everybody.
Speaker 2: Else do why, thank you. I'm really really looking forward
Speaker 2: to this. And I you know, I can't believe what
Speaker 2: are we coming up on the thirty seventh anniversary.
Speaker 1: Now, it's been thirty seven years since the premiere of
Speaker 1: the show, coming up on thirty seven years this seventh September.
Speaker 2: Wow, So yeah, you know, it just it felt like
Speaker 2: the time to come back and revisit. I mean, we've done,
Speaker 2: we've done the fuller, We've done you know, the cons
Speaker 2: and the meet and greets, and now it's time for
Speaker 2: the recap.
Speaker 3: It's time for the recap.
Speaker 1: And I feel like this is the perfect time to
Speaker 1: do a podcast because we got to get these memories
Speaker 1: down while we're still lucid.
Speaker 4: I mean it's slipping.
Speaker 2: I feel like day by day sometimes I'm like, wait what, Yeah,
Speaker 2: it's gonna be weird. To go back and definitely see things,
Speaker 2: see things that spark memories that I probably that we
Speaker 2: haven't thought about in thirty some odd years, but also
Speaker 2: to actually remember some things, and like, I have absolutely
Speaker 2: zero recollection of doing that, and I.
Speaker 4: Probably should, but that's weird.
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1: And I am so eager to get these memories recorded
Speaker 1: because you know, ever since we lost Bob last year
Speaker 1: and then you know, I lost my mom the year
Speaker 1: before that, I have been feeling the sense of urgency
Speaker 1: to capture these memories and get them down permanently so
Speaker 1: that we will have them forever, our kids can listen
Speaker 1: to them, our beloved fan base who is so loyal,
Speaker 1: we listen to this forever.
Speaker 2: And we have it.
Speaker 1: We will have a recording of all of our memories
Speaker 1: of what it was like to grow up on the
Speaker 1: set of Full House.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I am.
Speaker 2: I am really really excited to uh, to be able
Speaker 2: to go through this with.
Speaker 4: You and talk about it.
Speaker 2: I mean, what a you know what, It's an experience
Speaker 2: that not a ton of people in the world have,
Speaker 2: you know, and uh, and it's definitely you know, growing
Speaker 2: up on a series like this together. I mean, we
Speaker 2: have so many shared memories and weird family vacation stories
Speaker 2: and so many fun behind the scenes things that are
Speaker 2: gonna come out that I mean, I know, Oh, I
Speaker 2: just know there are some great stories that we uh
Speaker 2: that we haven't that we haven't told yet, some from
Speaker 2: full House years, some from Fuller House years.
Speaker 4: God remind remembering all of these. I mean, the gum wall.
Speaker 1: Like, yes, that's gross, like when you describe it, and
Speaker 1: when you describe it's pretty gros there.
Speaker 3: We'll get there, We'll get there, We'll get there.
Speaker 2: Well.
Speaker 1: And you and I had a really unique relationship too.
Speaker 1: I know there were seasons where I was closer to
Speaker 1: you than anyone else in the cast, and we hung
Speaker 1: out hot outside of the show too. I remember going
Speaker 1: to Disneyland with you and the lead did.
Speaker 2: We spent a lot of time together, you and I
Speaker 2: and you and I also shared a classroom for most
Speaker 2: of the series, that's right, so until I think you
Speaker 2: went maybe high school, and then I think and then
Speaker 2: we split off. But for the majority of those years,
Speaker 2: you know, we had we shared teachers, we shared a classroom,
Speaker 2: we shared I think a fish tank at some point
Speaker 2: in the classroom.
Speaker 4: The gutty greet.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, Now, how old were you when you started
Speaker 3: the show?
Speaker 2: I was I had just turned five. I think when
Speaker 2: I started the show? What about you?
Speaker 3: So you were you were a baby? You were?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was a literal I was a literal baby.
Speaker 3: You were a little taught, Oh my gosh, it was.
Speaker 3: And I was ten. So we were pretty young. I
Speaker 3: got it.
Speaker 1: I'm a little nervous about our memories here because we
Speaker 1: were so young, and you know, I have this this
Speaker 1: former child star amnesia, which I think is kind of
Speaker 1: common with child actors from the nineties, where I don't
Speaker 1: remember large chunks of my childhood because we Okay, I
Speaker 1: have a theory.
Speaker 2: Tell me, well, I also think that's I mean, not
Speaker 2: to age us or anything, but you know, we're we're
Speaker 2: we've been here longer, and I think more things have
Speaker 2: happened that crowd the space in the brain, is what
Speaker 2: I'm saying. I don't know that that's entirely unique to
Speaker 2: child stars and and may just be something that happens
Speaker 2: in our forties.
Speaker 1: Well no, but here here's my specific theory about former
Speaker 1: child stars from the nineties.
Speaker 4: A theory. You know how I love a good theory.
Speaker 3: You love a good theory. Well, it's not scandalous or anything.
Speaker 2: But I feel like, does it involve a big bang
Speaker 2: not big strong show, big bang.
Speaker 3: Theory network too, Jody, stay on topic. Sorry.
Speaker 1: So my theory is that we have very finely tuned
Speaker 1: short term memories because we're used to memorizing large amounts
Speaker 1: of dialogue every week, Like our scripts would change every
Speaker 1: single night.
Speaker 3: There was a new rewrite every single night for every
Speaker 3: single stript.
Speaker 1: And then even on show nights, we had already had
Speaker 1: all our dialogue and all of our lines memorized, but
Speaker 1: they would still be coming in with alts. They would
Speaker 1: come in with alternate jokes if the jokes weren't working,
Speaker 1: So we it was this pressure cooker situation where we
Speaker 1: were memorizing large amounts of dialogue and then after the
Speaker 1: show we wrapped on Friday nights, we would dump it all.
Speaker 3: We would dump now.
Speaker 2: If you asked me the next week, I'd be like,
Speaker 2: I have no idea, what are we doing next week?
Speaker 1: No clue, and then we would prepare to retrieve the
Speaker 1: next and download the next right next our rindes the
Speaker 1: next week. So I have very finely tuned short term memory.
Speaker 1: My long term memory not so great, And I feel
Speaker 1: like I feel like that's a thing with former child
Speaker 1: actors from the nineties.
Speaker 3: I don't know, that's the theory.
Speaker 2: You know what. I appreciate that theory. I I yeah.
Speaker 2: I think I'm also just losing my mind slowly as
Speaker 2: we go, and so yeah, I think that's part of
Speaker 2: why I'm like, I don't remember things. Also, you know,
Speaker 2: extenuating circumstances that we won't go into. But uh.
Speaker 3: We've got one hundred and ninety two of these, there's
Speaker 3: plenty of time.
Speaker 2: I'm like forty one and I'm like, wow, thirty six
Speaker 2: years ago, we're gonna go, We're gonna travel. It's like
Speaker 2: traveling back in time.
Speaker 1: Yeah, do you remember do you remember meeting me? Like,
Speaker 1: let's just let's just bring it back to me, right,
Speaker 1: just bring Do you remember meeting me for the very
Speaker 1: first time?
Speaker 2: Not specifically, And I'm gonna and that sounds horrible. I'm rude,
Speaker 2: I am a horrible friend.
Speaker 3: I get it. I totally get it.
Speaker 2: Uh No, but because I think I can't remember what
Speaker 2: episode you came into the show on episode three, episode three,
Speaker 2: that's right, because the first one they you're mentioned that
Speaker 2: DJ's on the phone with Kimmy Gibler, and I don't
Speaker 2: because I think I remember.
Speaker 4: The pilot so specifically.
Speaker 2: But I definitely remember like our jokes and our bits
Speaker 2: and things. But you know, again, I may come all
Speaker 2: rushing back to me when we watch episode three, because
Speaker 2: I have no idea what happens in episode three other
Speaker 2: than your character is introduced. But I don't remember anything,
Speaker 2: so it be like, oh my gosh, that time. I
Speaker 2: do remember that you loved tuna melts. Oh, you loved
Speaker 2: a good tuna melt sandwich.
Speaker 3: Why didn't I? I meant to eat a tuna melt
Speaker 3: before we recorded this, just like.
Speaker 1: That's been tradition, an homage to to our friendship and
Speaker 1: this show, because I would eat a tuna melt before
Speaker 1: every single live live.
Speaker 3: Show and including the Fuller House too.
Speaker 2: I would you would get when we would walk down
Speaker 2: to the the catering truck, like the generic white food truck. Well,
Speaker 2: the road trucks were cool, but like you know, when
Speaker 2: they were just white generic thing and you could but
Speaker 2: would go walk there with our moms at our lunch break,
Speaker 2: and you would always get a tuna melt sandwich always
Speaker 2: and a Martinelly's applesider.
Speaker 3: Oh, I remember.
Speaker 2: That memories for the most random, useless things. I go
Speaker 2: to the gas station, I can't remember my zip code
Speaker 2: for the credit card, but I can remember what your
Speaker 2: lunch order was in nineteen eighty seven.
Speaker 1: As long as you're focusing on the important memories, that's right.
Speaker 4: You know what.
Speaker 2: No one else is listening to a podcast about me
Speaker 2: not remembering my gas station pin code, so hey, you
Speaker 2: know it's more important to remember this stuff.
Speaker 3: There's a podcast for everything now.
Speaker 1: I don't remember the specific moment when I met you,
Speaker 1: because I'm sure it.
Speaker 3: Was a very overwhelming day coming into this set.
Speaker 1: But I do remember just generally just thinking of you
Speaker 1: as like the little kid.
Speaker 3: Yeah, the Olsen twins.
Speaker 1: Kid.
Speaker 3: The Olsen twins.
Speaker 1: Were only they were eighties. They were only they were
Speaker 1: nine months old. Yeah, And so they weren't on the
Speaker 1: set all the time.
Speaker 2: They were.
Speaker 1: There were very strict child labor laves, and they could
Speaker 1: only work so many hours a day and probably have
Speaker 1: what thirty minutes on the actual set or maybe any I.
Speaker 2: Mean, it was the eighties, there was probably more than that,
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. I'm sure since then they've
Speaker 2: they've made it a considerably shorter amount of time. But
Speaker 2: they they was like, sure, you could have a kid
Speaker 2: around for forty five minutes.
Speaker 1: Or so, right, since the oulcens weren't around all the time.
Speaker 1: I thought of you as you were the little kid.
Speaker 1: You were the little kid on the set, and so.
Speaker 3: I was just like, oh, she's so cute, you know,
Speaker 3: I was. So.
Speaker 1: I don't remember specifically meeting you, but I remember my
Speaker 1: general impressions of you, which was that you were an adorable,
Speaker 1: curly haired, blonde little girl with these bangs.
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, the bang bangs.
Speaker 2: Except my hair wasn't curly. What my hair was not
Speaker 2: naturally curly, so they had to curl it my mom.
Speaker 2: So your mom did put my hair in sponge rollers
Speaker 2: every night, with dippity doo and the little papers and
Speaker 2: the pink sponge rollers.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I slept in those things like every night, the sponge rollers.
Speaker 2: Sure I still have dents in my head.
Speaker 1: Oh absolutely, would you ever wake that problem like those things?
Speaker 1: I would use the sponge rollers too, but I would
Speaker 1: always wake up with a headache.
Speaker 3: So I hated them.
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh I didn't. Yeah I didn't love them.
Speaker 3: But but you know it anyway, But I did it.
Speaker 2: But the joke's gotta work, and Stephanie Tanner had curly hair.
Speaker 3: The joke has to work.
Speaker 1: That is a common phrase that you just said that.
Speaker 1: That is a common phrase that I remember hearing.
Speaker 4: Cross stitch that on a pillow. The jokes gotta work.
Speaker 3: Yes, that's gonna be your Christmas gift this year.
Speaker 2: Well, I have to give that on A Maria And
Speaker 2: I always joke about that. Who was uh on a Maria?
Speaker 2: Was the hairstylist on Fuller House, But we always joke
Speaker 2: about that. If you work in sitcoms, you do learn
Speaker 2: the jokes gotta work no matter what.
Speaker 3: Do whatever you have to as long as the joke works.
Speaker 1: Yep.
Speaker 2: I am so excited to go into this though. I
Speaker 2: really feel like the timing is right for it. I'm
Speaker 2: excited to get to like go back and revisit my
Speaker 2: childhood in a way and in a like in a
Speaker 2: way where I think I have a different perspective of
Speaker 2: like child stardom now a little bit, not in like
Speaker 2: a negative way, but I think in a way where
Speaker 2: it's I can look at it a little more objectively
Speaker 2: and kind of sort through some of the things that
Speaker 2: like maybe weren't so great or some of the things
Speaker 2: that you know, stuck with me that I had to
Speaker 2: learn how to undo at later points in my life.
Speaker 2: But like also going back and seeing just what we
Speaker 2: did as as young people as kids, and like how
Speaker 2: crazy responsible we were, Like it's amazing to me.
Speaker 1: I am definitely excited to go back and relive all
Speaker 1: those memories and look at the show through an adult lens.
Speaker 3: Finally.
Speaker 1: I mean we felt some of this, I think on
Speaker 1: Fuller House too, but getting to to view the show
Speaker 1: from the perspective as an adult and we're moms now
Speaker 1: we're adults, Like, I feel like our perspective is going
Speaker 1: to be completely different.
Speaker 3: And I I you called.
Speaker 4: Me an adult, though, I thank you, thank you for that.
Speaker 1: I mean, well myself, so we don't always act like
Speaker 1: adults technical our charms that we are.
Speaker 3: But yeah, I hope that it holds up.
Speaker 1: Like I have such fond memories of being on the
Speaker 1: set of full House, and I hope, I hope that
Speaker 1: holds up.
Speaker 3: Like I'm a little morvous.
Speaker 2: But what are we gonna all come crashing down around
Speaker 2: you and everything that was a lie?
Speaker 1: What if I've blocked out like a lot of negative memories.
Speaker 1: I don't I don't know, like, I guess we'll find out.
Speaker 2: Oh no, I guess this is I mean, this is good.
Speaker 2: I'm I'm willing to go on whatever and wherever this
Speaker 2: journey takes us. I honestly do think there's gonna be
Speaker 2: some moments though, where it's like oh wow, like things
Speaker 2: hit in a different way, or remembering like, oh man,
Speaker 2: I remember what was going on maybe outside of set
Speaker 2: that week, you know what I mean, and watching that
Speaker 2: and being like, man that you know, I don't know.
Speaker 2: I'm I'm excited to get to have a different perspective of.
Speaker 3: It though, me too. And we are going to be
Speaker 3: bringing on some great.
Speaker 1: Guests that will hopefully help us with the packing all
Speaker 1: of these memories. I'm excited to talk to all of
Speaker 1: our beloved cast members.
Speaker 2: We've got cast members, We've got directors, we've got producers,
Speaker 2: We're I mean, we're going to talk to all kinds
Speaker 2: of behind the scenes.
Speaker 4: People, are studio teachers, Oh my gosh.
Speaker 2: We have so many fun guests that we're excited to
Speaker 2: bring on and talk to, and people that really you
Speaker 2: might not have seen in front of the camera, but
Speaker 2: who full House would not have been possible without.
Speaker 4: So I'm excited to get to bring some of those stories.
Speaker 3: Me too too, Me too.
Speaker 1: A lot of those people worked on Fuller House as well,
Speaker 1: but not all of them, not all of them. So
Speaker 1: I hope that this can be like one big reunion
Speaker 1: full House casting.
Speaker 4: Do you think we could get Comet?
Speaker 1: Oh, Jody, I don't know. Commet was very busy back
Speaker 1: in the day. Didn't he play on Airbud?
Speaker 2: Was that the moment was also Airbud? Well, that was
Speaker 2: where he got replaced by Bob the Dog?
Speaker 3: Okay, Oh, I didn't know that.
Speaker 2: Yes, that was why we got Bob the Dog.
Speaker 4: Not Saggot.
Speaker 2: But I mean, I I this comes later in the
Speaker 2: in the series. Should we wait or didn't? I feel like,
Speaker 2: now I've opened up what happened to.
Speaker 3: You've opened up Pandora's box.
Speaker 2: I did not know he was air Bud, but he
Speaker 2: was like an Irish setter or something. So they had
Speaker 2: to dye him like a reddish color, and his and
Speaker 2: and and it hadn't come back, and he didn't look
Speaker 2: like the same. He didn't looked like a Golden Retriever.
Speaker 2: Hair was a little bit different, and so they brought
Speaker 2: in a dog who also was named Bob which then
Speaker 2: made things very confusing because you couldn't tell if people
Speaker 2: were yelling at Bob, Bob Saggot or Bob the Dog.
Speaker 2: And it really could have gone either way.
Speaker 3: Which do you think was the better actor? Like, I
Speaker 3: bet one of them listened to directions a little better.
Speaker 2: One was more focused, that's for sure. The dog definitely
Speaker 2: stayed on his mark. I love you, Bob, uh, but yeah,
Speaker 2: that was Bob the Dog.
Speaker 3: I'm already learning things and we're only ten minutes.
Speaker 4: Random tangents brought to you by Well.
Speaker 1: I figure we should start the same way that every
Speaker 1: episode started, which is talking about that classic iconic opening
Speaker 1: and the theme theme song.
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, I mean, I get, we definitely we have.
Speaker 2: Let's we're covering the theme song in this episode because
Speaker 2: I mean, it's obviously in every episode, so it would
Speaker 2: be silly to cover it every time. But I feel
Speaker 2: like it really needs a dedicated moment because the full
Speaker 2: House theme song is beyond iconic. I mean, there are
Speaker 2: I would say probably a handful, like a literal handful
Speaker 2: of show like sitcom intro songs that are as popular
Speaker 2: as as the full House theme song.
Speaker 1: You can't not sing along when you hear the full
Speaker 1: House theme song like it's it's almost like a tick.
Speaker 3: Where you just have to sit it.
Speaker 4: I mean, I actually I do.
Speaker 2: I twitch sometimes when I sing it, but it is
Speaker 2: I mean, people hear the beginning, like little beat of
Speaker 2: it and they freak out when I heard it from
Speaker 2: watching it, so we watched. I watched the pilot episode already.
Speaker 2: We're not going to talk about that'll be next the
Speaker 2: next after next week. But just hearing the original theme song,
Speaker 2: I was like, oh my gosh, it took me back.
Speaker 2: But one thing I will say is, did you realize
Speaker 2: that it was so long? No, it was like the
Speaker 2: extended cut music video drop of the full House theme
Speaker 2: song in the pilot episode.
Speaker 4: I like, I don't think it. I don't think it
Speaker 4: was always that long.
Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure it got edited at some point, but
Speaker 2: I'll be interested to see when. Because there was stuff
Speaker 2: happening in the opening credits.
Speaker 4: I was like, I don't remember.
Speaker 3: That it was unusually long.
Speaker 1: I felt the exact same way because I was like, right,
Speaker 1: I was, I'm still going it's still They definitely tightened
Speaker 1: it up and shortened it as I don't know when,
Speaker 1: like you said, but as as the seasons progressed, but
Speaker 1: we should give credit where credit is due of who
Speaker 1: who wrote the original theme song? Yes, which is Jesse, Frederick, Jesse,
Speaker 1: Frederick and Bennett Bennett Salve.
Speaker 3: Salve, I knew, yeah, pronounced it better than I would.
Speaker 2: Yes, Jesse and Bennett and Jesse and Bennett wrote like
Speaker 2: a ton of the the sitcom theme songs for Miller
Speaker 2: Boyet shows. So I know they did family Matters. I
Speaker 2: know they did step by step. So yeah, they you
Speaker 2: can definitely hear. And when you listen to all of
Speaker 2: the those theme songs, you're kind of like, oh, I
Speaker 2: kind of get it's got a little of the same
Speaker 2: moment to it. So but they were so incredibly talented
Speaker 2: and continued to work with us through Fuller House.
Speaker 4: And wrote wrote some of the songs that Stephanie sang on.
Speaker 3: Fuller Oh that's right, that's right. I forgot about that.
Speaker 1: Yes, Now, who was one of them singing the full
Speaker 1: House theme song? Was that Bennett or Jesse?
Speaker 4: That I don't know that.
Speaker 3: I don't know. Okay, well maybe we'll.
Speaker 2: In thirty and thirty somebody will yours. I've never Yeah,
Speaker 2: someone will. Someone will find out if.
Speaker 3: Not a producer.
Speaker 1: Then a diehard fan will definitely emailing us to correct.
Speaker 2: I am waiting for I'm sure we're going to get
Speaker 2: plenty of dms that that say like that there's something
Speaker 2: that we missed or screwed up, and I'm I'm looking
Speaker 2: for I'm welcoming that. I mean, I'm excited to see
Speaker 2: the things that I don't know, because I'm.
Speaker 4: Sure there's a lot.
Speaker 1: I welcome that too, because for thirty six years people
Speaker 1: have been saying, do you remember this episode, and I'm like, don't.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's always I just always said, uh, oh, Jesse
Speaker 2: did sing it.
Speaker 3: Jesse did sing it. Oh.
Speaker 4: By the way, our.
Speaker 2: Incredibly thorough fact checker, Jensen, thank you so much. Yes
Speaker 2: for sure to Jensen drops to Jenson keeping us factual.
Speaker 4: I don't need I don't need.
Speaker 2: To misspeak on this podcast. Share any misinformation, that's okay.
Speaker 2: But yeah, I don't remember it being as long. I
Speaker 2: do remember I had my little ballet moment right oh there,
Speaker 2: when it was like and and I forgot. I mean,
Speaker 2: I know it's kind of become a trope at this
Speaker 2: point the sitcom, you know, moment look into the camera,
Speaker 2: but I forgot, just really, how terrifically cheesy. It was like,
Speaker 2: it's so cheesy, It's like so awesomely cheesy, and just
Speaker 2: talking like you're talking to I want to do a
Speaker 2: bad lip breeding of what Dave and Bob and John
Speaker 2: are saying. So bad else because I can only imagine
Speaker 2: what they were actually saying, knowing that no like audio
Speaker 2: was going to be recorded.
Speaker 1: Oh man, I'm sure it was not appropriate for all
Speaker 1: ages and all ears for sure.
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, I.
Speaker 1: Have so many questions about the opening credits, okay, because
Speaker 1: I wasn't there.
Speaker 3: So where did you shoot these? Did you go to
Speaker 3: San Francisco to shoot these credits or were you well
Speaker 3: somewhere else?
Speaker 2: Yes? And no okay, well actually mostly no, okay, So
Speaker 2: I did not go to San Francisco. The cast did
Speaker 2: not go to San Francisco to shoot any of the
Speaker 2: the exterior stuff. So like when you see the when
Speaker 2: you see us in the car in the red car,
Speaker 2: like the close up and it pulls out, that was
Speaker 2: in Griffith Park. Oh, that was in Griffith Park. The
Speaker 2: scene where we are like running down the hill with
Speaker 2: the soccer ball or whatever, Yeah, that was also Griffith Park. Okay,
Speaker 2: the where we're fishing. Oh yes, The close up shot
Speaker 2: of that is as I believe Griffith Park or something,
Speaker 2: and then the then the when you see it from
Speaker 2: behind and it's like the three of them, that's not us.
Speaker 2: Those were just stand ins actually in San Francisco at
Speaker 2: the wharf, getting the like the wide shots. And then
Speaker 2: they did like the shot you know, over the over
Speaker 2: the Golden gate Bridge, which I'm not sure how.
Speaker 3: How didn't they shoot that? Yeah, drone?
Speaker 2: There was no drones. Then there was no it was
Speaker 2: it a helicopter.
Speaker 1: That's a good question for Jeff Franklin, the creator of
Speaker 1: the show, when we get him, when we get him
Speaker 1: on as a guest.
Speaker 2: I mean, I would assume it would have to be
Speaker 2: some sort of a helicopter shot, right. I don't know,
Speaker 2: because it wasn't like we had, you know, great CGI
Speaker 2: in nineteen eighty seven, and that would have been way
Speaker 2: more expensive than actually flying a helicopter and flying seven
Speaker 2: people up to San Francisco and getting a shot on
Speaker 2: the Golden gate Bridge at that moment in time.
Speaker 1: Speaking of CGI, my favorite shot of the opening credits
Speaker 1: is you and Candace and one of the Olsen twins
Speaker 1: in the back seat and that terrible green screen of
Speaker 1: a trolley car behind you, Like it could not look
Speaker 1: more fake.
Speaker 3: It is absolutely hysterical.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's pretty bad because also like, yeah, is that
Speaker 2: like the close then as it pulls to reveal in
Speaker 2: the car.
Speaker 3: No, this is just a shot.
Speaker 2: Oh that's right, it's just the shot of the three
Speaker 2: of us. Oh yeah, there's.
Speaker 3: Another shot where it pulls out. It pulls out, you
Speaker 3: see the five of you in the car, right?
Speaker 4: And then no, I do I remember the one you
Speaker 4: car on it? Yeah?
Speaker 2: It was, I mean, someone just it was like a
Speaker 2: hand painting of a trolley car stuck behind.
Speaker 4: It was like nobody will notice.
Speaker 2: Fine, I feel like a high schooler, you know, or
Speaker 2: a film student props in the art departments.
Speaker 4: Okay, in the eighties they were not working.
Speaker 2: With the two. It was it was where everyone was
Speaker 2: doing a great job at the moment. But I remember, like,
Speaker 2: even looking at some of the backgrounds in the pilot episode,
Speaker 2: I was like, wow, they really have come a long
Speaker 2: way in that in that department.
Speaker 1: Were you even wearing seat belts in the convertible? I
Speaker 1: didn't see you wearing this car.
Speaker 2: I'm sure we didn't. Didn't even have seat belts, you
Speaker 2: know what I mean, like there was no, it was
Speaker 2: not a thing at that point.
Speaker 4: I don't think.
Speaker 2: I mean, there were seat belt laws, but I remember
Speaker 2: being a kid, it was like if it was a
Speaker 2: vintage car, you still it was like, you know, the
Speaker 2: work around you that doesn't have to do it. But
Speaker 2: there certainly weren't enough seat belts for everyone that was
Speaker 2: in that car. I mean, yeah, yeah, but it wasn't
Speaker 2: like the stand I don't think Standards and Practices has
Speaker 2: that thing yet where it was like you had to
Speaker 2: watch someone buckle their seat belt and.
Speaker 3: It's very different now.
Speaker 1: The laws are much stricter now, and I'm like, they
Speaker 1: would never get away with that now, right.
Speaker 2: Oh, there's a whole lot in the first episode that
Speaker 2: they would never get away with now.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, but yeah, that was it was sort of
Speaker 2: a it was sort of a mishmash of Griffith Park
Speaker 2: and other people in San Francisco.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's there's the one shot you mentioned where Danny
Speaker 1: and DJ and Stefan you're fishing off the pier, right right, yeah,
Speaker 1: and then the shot from behind, I'm like, that's.
Speaker 2: Not Bob fishing. We were fishing, fishing fishing. Watch your diction.
Speaker 1: Do you remember our dialogue coach saying that watch diction,
Speaker 1: Watch your di what diction?
Speaker 4: You watch your diption?
Speaker 3: No, I'm trying to watch.
Speaker 1: Sorry, this is going off the rails already, That's what
Speaker 1: I'm This is just a.
Speaker 2: Taste of the off the railedness that is to come.
Speaker 3: And I just had a.
Speaker 1: Flash of our dialogue coach always saying watch your diction,
Speaker 1: Brian Cale, Brian Klee.
Speaker 3: Yes, and and remind us to pronounce it. Don't be slopp.
Speaker 3: You don't have a mush mouth. And so I was
Speaker 3: telling you to watch your diction. And that's what I've.
Speaker 2: I've never noticed, so my diction is atrocious, shall say anyway.
Speaker 4: Okay, I was gonna say.
Speaker 2: The one thing we were talking about is the how
Speaker 2: the story of how the full House House came to
Speaker 2: be the full House House, the exterior of it.
Speaker 3: That's a great story.
Speaker 4: It's a really cool story.
Speaker 2: Uh. That Rich Correll, who is one of the executive
Speaker 2: producers on Full House and also is a prolific direct or.
Speaker 4: We're going to have him on at some point too.
Speaker 4: He directed a ton.
Speaker 2: Of the Fuller House episodes as well, and produced on
Speaker 2: the show. I just love him. He's a dear friend
Speaker 2: of ours. We go to Universal Horrorights with him all
Speaker 2: the time. Anyway, he was producing at the time, and
Speaker 2: it's funny if you see the credits, he went by
Speaker 2: Richard Carrell.
Speaker 3: I did notice that I was like Richard Carrell, very formal.
Speaker 2: Very formal, and he was out there location scouting in
Speaker 2: San Francisco and the house was the house that they
Speaker 2: wound up choosing was one on a list of several
Speaker 2: you know, that they were looking at, and I guess
Speaker 2: they went to the house and rich went up to
Speaker 2: the door to speak to the owner about like, hey,
Speaker 2: we'd like to pay you for exterior shots at the house.
Speaker 1: Whatever.
Speaker 4: The dude opens the door.
Speaker 2: It's Rich's sister's ex boyfriend from high school who they
Speaker 2: went to high school in La Okay so years before,
Speaker 2: who now owns the house. Rich will correct me on
Speaker 2: the story of some I've missed something, but this is
Speaker 2: but he like opened the thing. Was like what happens
Speaker 2: to know the guy? It works out whatever, And that
Speaker 2: was how the full House house came to be chosen,
Speaker 2: which I find to be very serendipitous, just as so
Speaker 2: many things about Full House and Fuller House and this
Speaker 2: sort of magic that is on this little show that
Speaker 2: we do. Yeah, it was kind of like knowing that story.
Speaker 2: When Rich told me that, I was like, that absolutely
Speaker 2: fits it. Just it all fell into place. All the
Speaker 2: right people, the right things, the right places just all
Speaker 2: fell into place with full House.
Speaker 3: That's such a random connection. Is that a small world?
Speaker 1: Right?
Speaker 2: I even be honest, like what what are the odds?
Speaker 1: And it's such a great house too, with like the
Speaker 1: red door, Like do you think he picked that house?
Speaker 2: Because I believe they picked the house. They really liked
Speaker 2: the door, they liked the color scheme.
Speaker 1: They Yeah, well you and I recently went to San
Speaker 1: Francisco to promote promos for this podcast.
Speaker 4: Oh did we Francisco?
Speaker 3: Because I am still on.
Speaker 2: The way, I still have do you know the Way
Speaker 2: to San Jose in my head.
Speaker 3: That I have no response for that.
Speaker 2: Okay, on the flight home, I got a stupid song
Speaker 2: stuck in my head and it was do you know
Speaker 2: the Way to San Jose? Even though we were coming
Speaker 2: from San Francisco, and I felt the need to lean
Speaker 2: over to Andrey and tell her that. At the end
Speaker 2: of the day, I found it to be hilarious and
Speaker 2: she was just like, what is wrong with you?
Speaker 1: We were so slap appy at that point. But no,
Speaker 1: we flew up to San Francisco. We took a flight
Speaker 1: to Oakland, not Land.
Speaker 4: Not Oakland, not Auckland, check the spelling.
Speaker 2: And we just.
Speaker 1: Had the most delightful day driving around San Francisco in
Speaker 1: our Hyundai Tucson.
Speaker 2: It was so much.
Speaker 4: We had so much fun.
Speaker 2: We hit like other pretty much other than Alcatraz, and
Speaker 2: like driving across the Golden gate Bridge, I feel like
Speaker 2: we hit a lot like the Top five moments, particularly
Speaker 2: full House related. We saw the full House house m hm.
Speaker 2: We went fishing by the Golden gate Bridge and the marina. Yes,
Speaker 2: we went to Fisherman's Wharf and the giant steering wheel
Speaker 2: crab that y'all couldn't decide where it was if it
Speaker 2: was Peer thirty.
Speaker 4: Nine or twenty nine or whatever.
Speaker 3: We got a little bit lost, That's okay, a little
Speaker 3: bit lost.
Speaker 2: You and I got lost a couple of times in
Speaker 2: the Hundai. And most importantly was our multiple trips down
Speaker 2: Lombard Street.
Speaker 1: This was a dream come true for me driving down
Speaker 1: Lombard Street with.
Speaker 2: Lombard Street for those that for those that don't know,
Speaker 2: is the Crooked Street, which there's also a sign that
Speaker 2: says that in San Francisco the Crooked Street, because people
Speaker 2: were probably like, I don't know what the name of
Speaker 2: it is to the crooked Street. Yes, yes, it's called
Speaker 2: Lombard Street. Is the actual name. And people live on.
Speaker 3: This street, by the way, that blows my way.
Speaker 4: Why, I don't know.
Speaker 2: They have be just masochists to want to live amongst
Speaker 2: people driving all day and night in their front yard
Speaker 2: and troops up and down in their high ranges. So
Speaker 2: many we had a great time ruining.
Speaker 4: Their their day.
Speaker 2: So now it was the great time driving up and
Speaker 2: down it was Can I tell the story about honking?
Speaker 3: Please? Please tell? Well, okay, I'll set it. Let me,
Speaker 3: let me set it up.
Speaker 2: Give me the setup and I'll set you and then
Speaker 2: I'll do okay.
Speaker 1: So we drove down Lombard Street at least four times,
Speaker 1: maybe five times, because we had to get different angles,
Speaker 1: different shots. We had photographers at the top of the
Speaker 1: hill and at the bottom of the hill. And this
Speaker 1: was a dream come true for me because not only
Speaker 1: were you driving, but I was holding a Thomas Guide.
Speaker 1: Because that's how we got to all of our auditions back.
Speaker 3: In the nineties. Still seen a Thomas Guide before me.
Speaker 2: GPS goes down US eighties and ninety. The child stars
Speaker 2: are going to be fine, Like I got a map,
Speaker 2: I can read it.
Speaker 1: We are children of the nineties. We are fluent in
Speaker 1: the Thomas Guide.
Speaker 3: Yes.
Speaker 1: So this was our last pass of going down Lombard Street.
Speaker 1: And you know, there's a line of cars that are
Speaker 1: waiting to go down Lombard Street. So we're at the
Speaker 1: top of the hill waiting for our turn to go
Speaker 1: down Lombard Street.
Speaker 2: Right, Okay, So not only are we at the top
Speaker 2: of the hill waiting, but there's like a four way
Speaker 2: stop right at the top. I have pulled out into
Speaker 2: the intersection, thinking I'm going to go just straight through,
Speaker 2: but I hear honking, yes, and lots of honking, lots
Speaker 2: of the unk just eh, And I'm looking around like
Speaker 2: what is happening? Like there's pedestrians kind of like clearing
Speaker 2: the way right, and I'm like, oh, it's someone behind.
Speaker 3: All the tourists are staring at it.
Speaker 2: I thought it was yeah, people are staring. The windows
Speaker 2: are down, so it's also very loud. There's a car
Speaker 2: behind and I'm like, oh my god, am I in
Speaker 2: the way? Did I cut somebody off? Like when you
Speaker 2: realize know there's a thousand things going on, did I
Speaker 2: go into the interesting juice?
Speaker 1: Right?
Speaker 2: And then what I realized is is so when you're
Speaker 2: going over such steep hills in San Francisco, you kind
Speaker 2: of you have to look forward a little bit and
Speaker 2: lean kind of because it's very steep, right, so you
Speaker 2: can't see well as I'm leaning, certain parts of me
Speaker 2: are also leaning forward and smashing into the car horn
Speaker 2: and honking the car horn without my knowledge.
Speaker 3: The look on your face when you realized it was
Speaker 3: your boob.
Speaker 2: I realized because I thought someone was following us, and
Speaker 2: Honky No said just my boob, just and I was like,
Speaker 2: oh my.
Speaker 1: God, so talk about honkers. It was the greatest moment
Speaker 1: of the whole day. Like it just that was such
Speaker 1: a classic ing.
Speaker 4: Oh it really was.
Speaker 2: It really was scaring myself and having no idea why,
Speaker 2: but just.
Speaker 3: We're just such idiots honking at ourselves. Everyone's staring at us.
Speaker 3: They're like, how are the girls from full House honking
Speaker 3: at the top of Lombard.
Speaker 2: Street that apparently we were, And all I keep saying
Speaker 2: too is like, could you imagine people going down this
Speaker 2: thing in front of your house every day honking horns
Speaker 2: and stuff, And then I'm the idiot honking the horn.
Speaker 2: But the best part was is that apparently also we
Speaker 2: learned we were so loud in the car that they
Speaker 2: could hear us at the bottom of the hill when
Speaker 2: we were going down, and they would just yell to
Speaker 2: each other.
Speaker 4: Like, oh, here they come.
Speaker 2: We hear them because the windows were down, and not
Speaker 2: even the car honking, was it even the honking their voices,
Speaker 2: just the honking from my mouth. And we were like.
Speaker 3: Canaddling hens, just yes, all the way down the hill.
Speaker 2: And they were like, up here they go them and
Speaker 2: we were just announcing our rival completely downhill to all
Speaker 2: of San Francisco. Because I wake up San Francisco, I.
Speaker 3: Will hold that memory in my brain for the.
Speaker 2: Rest of my So much fun. We had so much fun.
Speaker 2: I think I definitely made a couple illegal lefts, and
Speaker 2: I probably drove where a trolley car or a cable
Speaker 2: car is supposed to be. And I don't know if
Speaker 2: it was really a lane or not, but I made
Speaker 2: it one. And we're here to tell the story. So
Speaker 2: I guess we're fine.
Speaker 1: Well, driving in San Francisco is very stressful, and you
Speaker 1: handled it like a champ. Like. It's very confusing between
Speaker 1: the one way streets and the bike lanes, which are
Speaker 1: I've never driven.
Speaker 2: Well, that's not true. I've driven in San Francisco before.
Speaker 2: I drove. I took the kids up there on a
Speaker 2: trip and I drove the minivan. Driving a minivan in
Speaker 2: San Francisco on those hills. Let me tell you that
Speaker 2: not easy on the brakes. But this was I mean,
Speaker 2: I didn't want to get out of the car. They kept,
Speaker 2: you know, they'd be like, Okay, we're gonna know you know,
Speaker 2: you gotta get on. Was like, I like the car.
Speaker 2: I want to get out.
Speaker 3: It's a great car, great car. I was just.
Speaker 4: I was having so much fun with.
Speaker 2: You, just just being stupid in the car and having
Speaker 2: fun and being silly and making fun of ourselves.
Speaker 3: Oh, it was. It was the best.
Speaker 1: That's what we do best, Jody, is just laugh and
Speaker 1: make fun of each other and.
Speaker 3: Laugh some more.
