So 0:00:36.080 --> 0:00:39.760 we're going to keep this intro very short and sweetened. 0:00:40.120 --> 0:00:40.880 You just gave it away. 0:00:40.920 --> 0:00:46.040 It's my mom joke.

Oh yeah, but 0:01:11.240 --> 0:01:13.200 you got to be like zero or two years. 0:01:13.240 --> 0:01:15.640 I think it came out before I was born, but 0:01:15.840 --> 0:01:18.680 I've definitely seen it. I'm a huge Olsen Twin fan. 0:01:18.840 --> 0:01:21.880 So well, we are very excited to have Jodie Sweeten today, 0:01:21.920 --> 0:01:25.080 she is a total legend on every level. I think 0:01:25.120 --> 0:01:27.080 how old was she when she was on the original? 0:01:27.600 --> 0:01:30.000 I think she may have started at four or five, 0:01:30.240 --> 0:01:32.000 and now she is definitely. 0:01:31.560 --> 0:01:33.039 Young, and today she is. 0:01:34.600 --> 0:01:38.360 Probably damn I think she might be like in her 0:01:38.440 --> 0:01:39.959 late thirties, thirties. 0:01:40.920 --> 0:01:43.000 You know, what's amazing to be on a TV show 0:01:43.080 --> 0:01:45.520 that was one of the biggest hits in television for 0:01:45.760 --> 0:01:48.920 whatever amount of years as a child, not even being 0:01:48.920 --> 0:01:50.480 able to remember it, you know what I mean, because 0:01:50.520 --> 0:01:53.160 at four or five, what do you remember? And now 0:01:53.200 --> 0:01:56.120 being again like reinvented in the same show. I don't 0:01:56.160 --> 0:01:57.200 has that ever happened before. 0:01:58.760 --> 0:02:01.320 I think it's really hard to to recreate a show 0:02:02.120 --> 0:02:05.120 that has already existed and kind of do some sort 0:02:05.120 --> 0:02:08.200 of sequel to it.

I really want to be 0:09:42.240 --> 0:09:42.640 a modeler. 0:09:44.200 --> 0:09:47.959 And I was, you know, I was the kid that 0:09:49.240 --> 0:09:51.520 you know, would run into the room of adults with 0:09:51.640 --> 0:09:54.640 a harmonica and start playing some little made up song 0:09:54.720 --> 0:09:56.800 and sing for everyone and then be like, hen, thank you, 0:09:57.080 --> 0:09:58.280 and you know, exit the room. 0:09:59.520 --> 0:10:01.520 You know, I pushed my way to the front of 0:10:01.640 --> 0:10:04.640 my first dance recital because apparently I thought that the 0:10:04.679 --> 0:10:07.439 girls in the front were just not bringing me to 0:10:07.520 --> 0:10:08.240 stuff to stuff. 0:10:09.160 --> 0:10:11.439 So you know, if my mom saw things like this, 0:10:11.559 --> 0:10:14.760 and she saw you know, I was extremely luckily bright 0:10:14.880 --> 0:10:15.440 for my age. 0:10:15.480 --> 0:10:17.480 I mean I was reading, fully reading by the time 0:10:17.520 --> 0:10:20.760 I was three years old. I had read books. I 0:10:20.800 --> 0:10:22.160 could do all that. So you know, when I was 0:10:22.200 --> 0:10:24.719 auditioning and stuff, I was the four year old. 0:10:24.720 --> 0:10:26.680 We could walk into a room and all the people 0:10:26.760 --> 0:10:29.360 script and read it, and you know, there were not 0:10:29.520 --> 0:10:31.360 many kids at that age that could do that. 0:10:31.559 --> 0:10:34.560 So I loved it from the beginning. It was always 0:10:34.600 --> 0:10:35.599 something I wanted to do. 0:10:35.760 --> 0:10:41.760 I loved to perform, and being somebody whose brain works 0:10:42.400 --> 0:10:44.880 like you know, in hyperdrive most of the time, I 0:10:45.000 --> 0:10:46.160 needed a lot going on. 0:10:47.160 --> 0:10:50.599 I loved excitement and change and creativity and all of that. 0:10:50.840 --> 0:10:56.000 So it really was, I think, for me, the perfect 0:10:56.080 --> 0:11:01.000 place to come of age. And you know it brought 0:11:01.120 --> 0:11:05.080 with it its difficulties too. You're like the normal existence. 0:11:05.120 --> 0:11:07.319 But when you were ten eleven and you're at the 0:11:07.520 --> 0:11:10.520 height of your fame for that show, which I assume 0:11:10.640 --> 0:11:13.040 is like ten to twelve, you were like thriving. 0:11:13.520 --> 0:11:15.839 You want that? I mean, where are the Where do 0:11:15.920 --> 0:11:16.959 the difficulties lie there? 0:11:17.040 --> 0:11:19.360 Because being a ten year old, like for my daughter 0:11:19.720 --> 0:11:21.199 being an eleven year old, you know, we go to 0:11:21.280 --> 0:11:23.559 the mall and the biggest conflict she'll see or the 0:11:23.600 --> 0:11:26.360 biggest weird initial see is people will come up to Lalla, 0:11:26.480 --> 0:11:27.600 or they'll come up to me and say, oh. 0:11:27.520 --> 0:11:29.640 My god, we like you, or fans of that show 0:11:29.679 --> 0:11:29.960 or whatever. 0:11:30.559 --> 0:11:33.400 But to be the person at eleven years old where 0:11:33.400 --> 0:11:36.120 they're coming up to you that's got to be just 0:11:36.440 --> 0:11:38.360 awkward on every level, is it not? 0:11:38.679 --> 0:11:41.040 Or yeah, for sure. 0:11:41.200 --> 0:11:45.719 I you know, it's funny because as outwilling as I am, 0:11:46.320 --> 0:11:49.760 you know, I definitely can be an introvert. I definitely, Like, 0:11:50.480 --> 0:11:53.040 you know, growing up, there were times when it was like, 0:11:53.160 --> 0:11:56.719 oh my god, I wish like I just want to 0:11:56.720 --> 0:11:57.840 blend into the wallpaper. 0:11:58.040 --> 0:11:59.720 I just want to be right in the. 0:11:59.720 --> 0:12:02.480 Back round, you know, because every new class that I 0:12:02.559 --> 0:12:04.400 went into, or a new school that I went into, 0:12:04.880 --> 0:12:07.720 or you know, went to the mall, it was like never, 0:12:09.520 --> 0:12:11.120 you know, I can go You can't go out to 0:12:11.120 --> 0:12:12.440 eat with your family and not. 0:12:12.600 --> 0:12:14.560 Have someone interrupt you while you're in the middle of kin. 0:12:15.400 --> 0:12:16.880 You know. The thing was as a kid, it was 0:12:17.000 --> 0:12:19.360 really hard because I. 0:12:19.480 --> 0:12:21.840 Didn't I don't know, and I guess even as an adult, 0:12:21.880 --> 0:12:26.959 like I said, I just I'm like relatively ambivalent and 0:12:27.040 --> 0:12:28.560 sort of unimpressed. 0:12:28.080 --> 0:12:31.400 By celebrity and and fanciness and all of that. 0:12:31.679 --> 0:12:34.480 So like it's just so crazy to me when when 0:12:34.559 --> 0:12:36.480 people come up and I'm like, oh my god, like 0:12:37.280 --> 0:12:39.480 it's it's weird.

It was one of the things and 0:12:55.840 --> 0:12:58.480 still is in this day when papassey. One of the 0:12:58.600 --> 0:13:01.280 weirdest things is when someone's taking your picture when you're 0:13:01.360 --> 0:13:05.480 just trying to exist, yeah, and it feels so invasive. 0:13:05.520 --> 0:13:07.679 And I remember feeling like that as a kid, feeling 0:13:07.720 --> 0:13:08.960 like there were times when I was like I don't 0:13:09.000 --> 0:13:13.120 want to be on you know, right, but also knowing 0:13:13.320 --> 0:13:16.400 and being so incredibly grateful for those people and hearing 0:13:16.440 --> 0:13:18.439 those stories and seeing people that this show meant so 0:13:18.559 --> 0:13:21.280 much too. I felt that as a kid, you know, 0:13:21.760 --> 0:13:23.840 being a very impacted, sensitive kid. 0:13:23.760 --> 0:13:24.719 Like I took that on. 0:13:25.040 --> 0:13:27.920 So I knew almost that there was like this big 0:13:28.000 --> 0:13:30.439 responsibility of what this show meant to be, and I 0:13:30.600 --> 0:13:31.800 was so grateful for that. 0:13:33.000 --> 0:13:34.719 But I also had times when I was like I 0:13:34.920 --> 0:13:36.720 just want to like walk into a. 0:13:36.800 --> 0:13:39.280 Room and like slip it and not have every kid 0:13:39.320 --> 0:13:43.640 in the room go like oh right, Like what a 0:13:43.840 --> 0:13:46.360 conflict to battle as an eleven year old where you're 0:13:46.440 --> 0:13:48.520 like I just want to be normal, But then you 0:13:48.640 --> 0:13:51.440 have people that are like your show is changing my life. 0:13:51.520 --> 0:13:53.480 It's like, and you want to be able to say 0:13:53.679 --> 0:13:56.319 I don't want all of this.

You know, I can talk to 0:14:43.920 --> 0:14:45.920 you guys about this and you know this journey of 0:14:46.760 --> 0:14:49.040 of getting through life and sobriety and all that kind 0:14:49.040 --> 0:14:50.720 of stuff. But I think as an adult you reflect 0:14:50.760 --> 0:14:53.200 on and you're like, oh, I see where this desire 0:14:53.360 --> 0:14:55.760 to I just want to make everyone happy because that's 0:14:55.800 --> 0:14:59.320 my role, that's you know, my job where that came 0:14:59.360 --> 0:15:02.960 into play. And at the same time, like having an 0:15:03.200 --> 0:15:06.640 awesome childhood. You know, I was surrounded by love. Our 0:15:06.800 --> 0:15:14.040 past was amazing.

It was what made me feel alive. 0:15:28.200 --> 0:15:30.280 And I never feel more at home. 0:15:30.160 --> 0:15:33.320 Than I do when I'm on set. When you when 0:15:33.360 --> 0:15:36.640 you realize, like, oh yeah, not everybody went through that it, 0:15:37.280 --> 0:15:39.120 you know, you realize you have a very different perspective 0:15:39.240 --> 0:15:39.680 of life. 0:15:40.080 --> 0:15:43.680 Yes, when the show, when the show ended, this is 0:15:43.680 --> 0:15:45.840 the question when you're thirteen years old and you've been 0:15:45.880 --> 0:15:50.360 in this crazy machine, you know, big publicity machine. 0:15:50.440 --> 0:15:50.600 Bit. 0:15:50.680 --> 0:15:53.400 You know, you're at a studio every day taping. You 0:15:53.440 --> 0:15:57.080 know your life is the farthest thing from normalcy, but 0:15:57.160 --> 0:15:57.960 it was your normal. 0:15:58.560 --> 0:15:59.440 What happens when it. 0:15:59.480 --> 0:16:01.440 All gets quiet for a minute, you know, when you're 0:16:01.520 --> 0:16:04.480 thirteen years old, I mean, is it easy to adjust 0:16:04.720 --> 0:16:05.640 into the next press? 0:16:06.080 --> 0:16:08.800 I mean, there's definitely an adjustment period.

I think it was like the last 0:19:47.240 --> 0:19:49.000 three weeks we knew we were getting canceled. 0:19:49.200 --> 0:19:49.400 Wow. 0:19:49.400 --> 0:19:51.480 So we didn't even go into the season knowing it. 0:19:51.680 --> 0:19:53.320 We thought it was going to get picked up, and 0:19:53.400 --> 0:19:55.480 it didn't, and there was back and forth maybe W B. 0:19:55.640 --> 0:19:55.880 Wood. 0:19:56.800 --> 0:19:59.240 So it was kind of a sudden loss, but it 0:19:59.320 --> 0:20:00.080 was also the same. 0:20:00.040 --> 0:20:03.800 In time, like I can just start this new chapter. 0:20:05.160 --> 0:20:09.199 But what I soon found was everyone expected. 0:20:08.720 --> 0:20:11.359 Me to be Stephanie Tanner. 0:20:11.640 --> 0:20:15.040 Yeah, and so I was like, well, let's just be 0:20:15.160 --> 0:20:16.879 the least Stephanie Tanner like. 0:20:16.920 --> 0:20:21.240 That we can to prove a point, you know. But 0:20:21.320 --> 0:20:24.480 it was kind of the same ship as everybody else was. 0:20:24.480 --> 0:20:25.920 Doing because you were in high school. You were in 0:20:26.040 --> 0:20:27.720 high school. You were in high school. So it was like, 0:20:27.920 --> 0:20:29.760 like you said, the convergence was like it was just 0:20:29.880 --> 0:20:31.200 a perfect timing. 0:20:31.160 --> 0:20:34.320 Of lost your job, the normal ship that starts anyway, 0:20:34.440 --> 0:20:36.840 and then to add on like this extra layer just 0:20:36.960 --> 0:20:41.200 a real interesting life shift for someone who doesn't have 0:20:41.280 --> 0:20:43.720 the emotional capacity to really even think about. 0:20:43.480 --> 0:20:44.080 It at that age. 0:20:44.320 --> 0:20:44.679 Correct. 0:20:45.040 --> 0:20:49.240 Correct, So you start, you started this rebellious phase of 0:20:49.359 --> 0:20:53.280 like I'm not fucking Stephanie Tanner. I'm Jody I And 0:20:53.480 --> 0:20:53.720 it was. 0:20:53.920 --> 0:20:56.440 It was like I'll be just as bad as you 0:20:56.640 --> 0:20:58.320 all do the same stupid shit you do. 0:20:59.000 --> 0:21:01.879 But you know, it's different when when it's you, you know, 0:21:01.920 --> 0:21:04.160 and I remember my mom always saying like people will 0:21:04.200 --> 0:21:08.320 always be watching, people will always be watching, and that's 0:21:08.400 --> 0:21:11.080 like kind of a shitty mentality to grow up with, 0:21:11.640 --> 0:21:13.359 although I think now in the age of social media, 0:21:13.400 --> 0:21:18.399 I can spill that way anyway. But you know, it was, 0:21:18.560 --> 0:21:21.119 it always was different. It wasn't just like oh that 0:21:21.400 --> 0:21:23.560 you know, freshman girl got drunk at a party. 0:21:23.680 --> 0:21:26.040 Was dude, did you see Julie Sweeten, the Gold of 0:21:26.080 --> 0:21:27.960 the Stephanie Tanner get drunk at that party? 0:21:28.240 --> 0:21:28.560 Totally? 0:21:29.080 --> 0:21:30.720 You know, it was a thing. 0:21:31.440 --> 0:21:35.560 And so I think I found that thing that just 0:21:35.800 --> 0:21:37.520 made me feel like I didn't give a shit. 0:21:38.040 --> 0:21:40.800 Okay, alcohol. 0:21:42.440 --> 0:21:45.240 I finally was like, oh wait, here's the key to 0:21:45.359 --> 0:21:48.080 where I can feel like I don't give a ship. 0:21:48.240 --> 0:21:50.120 I don't you know, nothing matters, I don't care about 0:21:50.119 --> 0:21:52.359 your judgment of me, you know, all that kind of 0:21:52.400 --> 0:21:55.399 stuff that. Thank god, at thirty nine, I now have 0:21:56.000 --> 0:21:58.560 you know, I worked through a process and actually have. 0:21:58.840 --> 0:22:02.399 But yeah, thirteen it was, you know, that was the thing. 0:22:02.520 --> 0:22:05.760 So when we started drinking at thirteen, when I mean 0:22:05.880 --> 0:22:08.879 full alcoholic at thirteen fifteen, when did it get to 0:22:09.000 --> 0:22:09.520 the point where it. 0:22:09.520 --> 0:22:09.840 Is I mad? 0:22:09.960 --> 0:22:12.600 I can say I was by fifteen or sixteen. 0:22:12.640 --> 0:22:14.919 I do remember at one point there was a moment 0:22:15.119 --> 0:22:17.560 when I said to my mom was like, I think 0:22:17.560 --> 0:22:20.720 I'm an alcoholico. And of course at fifteen or you know, 0:22:20.880 --> 0:22:23.040 sixteen minutes, and I was drunk when I'm saying it, so, 0:22:23.640 --> 0:22:26.919 you know, like I think my mom was probably like. 0:22:27.080 --> 0:22:27.679 The fuck you are? 0:22:27.720 --> 0:22:30.600 You're just being an idiot, you know.

You know, 0:22:36.840 --> 0:22:39.000 alcohol did something. 0:22:38.840 --> 0:22:42.440 Different for me than it did for other people. I 0:22:42.640 --> 0:22:46.120 didn't react to it like my friends would get drunk 0:22:46.160 --> 0:22:47.399 and then they're like, oh, I'm that's it. 0:22:47.680 --> 0:22:48.760 That's like me.

No desire. 0:29:55.920 --> 0:29:59.520 Kids are for the most part, relatively unimpressed with the 0:29:59.600 --> 0:30:00.880 fact that I'm on a show. 0:30:01.040 --> 0:30:03.080 I think really the thing that they like most about 0:30:03.120 --> 0:30:05.920 comings is set was craft service. The shit about what 0:30:06.000 --> 0:30:06.400 I was doing? 0:30:06.600 --> 0:30:10.680 Right, They were just like, oh, sushi on a Friday, Well, 0:30:10.680 --> 0:30:13.120 I'd be impressed by that. Craft services too, I usually 0:30:13.200 --> 0:30:14.240 see bananas and Julida. 0:30:14.440 --> 0:30:17.960 They enjoyed the person it sometimes for sure, but it's also, 0:30:18.080 --> 0:30:19.760 you know, at the same time, it's hard. 0:30:19.640 --> 0:30:21.040 For them when I when I have to travel. 0:30:21.080 --> 0:30:22.320 My younger one, you know, when I have to go 0:30:22.360 --> 0:30:24.520 away for three weeks to do a TV movie or whatever, 0:30:24.840 --> 0:30:25.640 she hates it. 0:30:25.840 --> 0:30:26.320 It's hard. 0:30:28.000 --> 0:30:30.040 But they, you know, they're just like, oh my god, 0:30:30.120 --> 0:30:33.040 this is It's so weird, but it's also always been 0:30:33.080 --> 0:30:33.800 their existence. 0:30:35.080 --> 0:30:40.600 Well not entirely because most of the time that I 0:30:40.720 --> 0:30:42.000 have you know, I have my kids, So they were 0:30:42.040 --> 0:30:44.200 pretty young when I started back to Fuller House and 0:30:44.320 --> 0:30:46.520 doing all of that, so you know, they had some 0:30:46.640 --> 0:30:49.160 experience of like just normal life, you know, the four 0:30:49.200 --> 0:30:52.320 bedroom apartment we're all sharing. Yeah, and you know, now 0:30:52.400 --> 0:30:55.360 they've gotten to see some of the fun perks of this, 0:30:56.080 --> 0:30:57.640 so I think they like that for sure. 0:30:58.400 --> 0:31:00.520 But at the you know, at the end of the day, 0:31:00.560 --> 0:31:01.840 I'm mom. I have rules. 0:31:01.920 --> 0:31:05.000 I yell at them like I'm so not cool. It 0:31:05.080 --> 0:31:07.000 doesn't matter, like blah blah blah.

It's just the whole thing's awesome. 0:31:21.400 --> 0:31:23.320 I mean, I just think, you know, I have a 0:31:23.360 --> 0:31:26.360 show Power on Stars and a lot of spin offs, 0:31:26.400 --> 0:31:28.240 and you know, we've never come back. 0:31:28.320 --> 0:31:31.320 We're just still doing. But I've just tried it before 0:31:31.360 --> 0:31:33.240 you came on. I try to think about, like, wow. 0:31:33.600 --> 0:31:36.520 Fast forward seven, eight, nine years, how exciting that has 0:31:36.600 --> 0:31:39.280 to be to bring back the family and go back 0:31:39.320 --> 0:31:41.880 and do it again. What is the most fun part 0:31:41.920 --> 0:31:44.000 about you being back besides the fact that you're old 0:31:44.080 --> 0:31:47.880 enough to appreciate it, probably now, what else is fun 0:31:47.920 --> 0:31:48.280 about it? 0:31:48.840 --> 0:31:50.960 Yeah? I appreciated it when I was young. 0:31:51.160 --> 0:31:54.640 But I think having like, had things as a kid 0:31:54.800 --> 0:31:58.080 and build up that, and then not having things and 0:31:58.200 --> 0:32:01.680 being like, you know, like I said, one. 0:32:01.640 --> 0:32:04.280 Veteran apartment with two kids, and you know, trying to 0:32:04.280 --> 0:32:05.960 figure it out and do all that, like, and then 0:32:06.120 --> 0:32:08.640 being able to kind of come back, and then being 0:32:08.720 --> 0:32:09.360 in a pandemic. 0:32:09.800 --> 0:32:12.120 You know, all of those things have given me perspective 0:32:12.920 --> 0:32:17.880 that I wouldn't have had had it been difficult or 0:32:17.960 --> 0:32:21.280 not difficult rather but coming back with all of these 0:32:21.360 --> 0:32:24.520 people who we've stayed friends.
