1
00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:21,239
Speaker 1: We are so excited about today's guest, our first castmate

2
00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:24,479
Speaker 1: to join us on the pod. He first captured the

3
00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:28,120
Speaker 1: hearts of women everywhere as Blackie on General Hospital, before

4
00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:31,600
Speaker 1: committing to the role that would propel him to superstardom

5
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:34,800
Speaker 1: and follow him for the rest of his life Uncle

6
00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:39,120
Speaker 1: Jesse on Full House. To Jody and me, he's just John,

7
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:43,080
Speaker 1: or Mud, as we affectionately call him. His new memoir,

8
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:46,080
Speaker 1: If You Would Have Told Me, is an incredibly poignant

9
00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:49,920
Speaker 1: and heartfelt look inside John's life and legacy. I cried

10
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:53,720
Speaker 1: more times than I can count without further ado. The

11
00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:56,920
Speaker 1: man with the megawat smile and the best head of

12
00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 1: hair in Hollywood. We love and adore him. John Stamos, Hi,

97
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 2: Right, let's get into it. You remember, I know you

98
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,280
Speaker 2: guys read the book, and I appreciate that. And I

99
00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:00,360
Speaker 2: went back to Andrew's book and listen into it. I

100
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 2: told you, Andrew a couple of weeks ago, and I

101
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,279
Speaker 2: guess one that came out you sent me one. I

102
00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:07,880
Speaker 2: kind of grazed it and I looked in. But listening

103
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 2: to it this time, I was really I really felt

104
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:11,720
Speaker 2: for you. It was really beautiful writing, and you were

105
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 2: very you know, forthcoming with issues that I didn't even

106
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:18,520
Speaker 2: know you had, and you know, we sort of all

107
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 2: lost touch for a few crazy years there. But it

108
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,520
Speaker 2: was really beautiful. And and Jody, I know you've written

109
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:26,320
Speaker 2: about eighteen books, and.

110
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 5: No I haven't. I've only written just the one, just

111
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 5: the one.

112
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:34,320
Speaker 2: But it was did you narrate it or Britney Spears

113
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 2: who did the audio of it?

114
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,599
Speaker 3: I actually never did an audiobook of it, I don't

115
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,040
Speaker 3: think because if this was like it came out in nine,

116
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:43,920
Speaker 3: I mean it was, it came out a long time ago,

117
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:45,560
Speaker 3: so it was kind of in the era of like

118
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 3: I don't know that we were doing like as many

119
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:49,560
Speaker 3: of the audible books and stuff.

120
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:52,159
Speaker 2: But I found that really the hardest part.

121
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:55,040
Speaker 4: Did you, Andrew, what was the hardest part for you.

122
00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:58,400
Speaker 2: Doing the audio? Well? Doing the audio really, I mean.

123
00:05:58,320 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 4: It was I was saying what part of the book

124
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:02,279
Speaker 4: was the hardest for you? To write?

125
00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:04,719
Speaker 2: All of it, I'll tell you that about that, But

126
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:07,400
Speaker 2: the audio I thought was going to be so like

127
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:08,920
Speaker 2: I was really looking forward to it because I listened

128
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,880
Speaker 2: to audio books all the time, and it was hard.

129
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:13,880
Speaker 2: It took me, Like, I said, how long would it take?

130
00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:15,680
Speaker 2: And they said, well, you'll have five or six days.

131
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 2: I took like thirty two days or something, because you're

132
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:20,160
Speaker 2: cold reading your life, you know, for the first time,

133
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:22,919
Speaker 2: right right, yeah, And I did this and I you know,

134
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:23,800
Speaker 2: I rewrote.

135
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 3: And then you're like, did I I don't want to

136
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,280
Speaker 3: I take all this back? Never mind, just kidding, Right,

137
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:30,480
Speaker 3: how did you get me and YouTube?

138
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 2: Jody? Like, wasn't it? It's so I started out to

139
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:35,839
Speaker 2: write like a hero book, like I did this, and

140
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,159
Speaker 2: I did that, you know, and then it automatically, you know,

141
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 2: very soon became a human story and I had to

142
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:46,839
Speaker 2: really dig deep to when I started to tell the

143
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:49,680
Speaker 2: absolute truth about stuff, and I stumble upon this line

144
00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:54,680
Speaker 2: without anything less than the truth is paralysis, and so

145
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:56,560
Speaker 2: I was like, oh crap, now I got to go

146
00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:00,320
Speaker 2: by that and it was just uh, cathartic, yes, but

147
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:02,520
Speaker 2: it was it was hard, right, I mean, what did

148
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 2: you guys feel when you had to write all that?

149
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,719
Speaker 5: I mean, I'll never forget going.

150
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 3: Like after I'd written the book and then going and

151
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 3: starting my press tour and I was.

152
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:11,200
Speaker 5: Doing the Today Show.

153
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 3: Uh, and I had this moment and my first interview

154
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 3: was the Today Show. I think it was Matt Lower.

155
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:19,520
Speaker 3: That tells you how long that that was, but it was.

156
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:22,560
Speaker 2: He's a beacon of you know, good solid.

157
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:27,680
Speaker 3: Well yeah, but uh, it was I remember thinking the

158
00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 3: night before I was like, what have I done that?

159
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 5: I oh, no, you know what I mean?

160
00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:37,239
Speaker 3: And then it was But then there was a sense

161
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 3: also a sense of freedom once you kind of step

162
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 3: off that ledge and just tell the truth and tell

163
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 3: your story and tell all of your you know, faults

164
00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 3: and everything that you think is so scary, and you

165
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 3: find that people respond to it really wonderfully and positively

166
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 3: and supportively, and then you're like, oh, oh, actually, like

167
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 3: that was terrifying at first, but it was very freeing

168
00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:58,400
Speaker 3: and very yeah, like you said, cathartic.

169
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:01,760
Speaker 1: It was like therapy for me to write some of

170
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:04,840
Speaker 1: these innermost feelings that I hadn't really unpacked ever in

171
00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:07,640
Speaker 1: my life. That's what I was forced to by writing

172
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:11,600
Speaker 1: these deep chapters where you're writing about your difficult times,

173
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 1: the times when you've struggled.

174
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:16,160
Speaker 4: I mean, these are really personal moments, and so that's.

175
00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:20,000
Speaker 1: It's cathartic, it's therapeutic and like Jody said, terrifying, you know,

176
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:22,720
Speaker 1: the night before it's released into the public.

177
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:24,680
Speaker 2: And then you but then then it goes from that

178
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:28,680
Speaker 2: to terrifying to like everybody's known your business and they're saying, oh,

179
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,480
Speaker 2: my god, you're so brave and brave, and then it

180
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:33,440
Speaker 2: goes to my god, you helped me. I had the

181
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,160
Speaker 2: same issue I haven't you know. And there's a couple

182
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 2: of things that I a lot of. They asked me

183
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 2: to write a book a couple of times over the years.

184
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:43,120
Speaker 2: I was like, no, no, no, no, I don't I

185
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,439
Speaker 2: can't write how. I didn't even know. I couldn't even know,

186
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:46,960
Speaker 2: like where do I where am I even start? I

187
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,480
Speaker 2: know nothing about writing a book. I could rewrite stuff.

188
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:50,280
Speaker 2: You you guys have been.

189
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 4: There for that, but many many scenes, I can't.

190
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,560
Speaker 2: I never wrote anything, so I kept saying no, and

191
00:08:57,559 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 2: then I thought, oh, the only thing anyone wants to

192
00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:02,000
Speaker 2: hear is you know who I slept with, and I'm

193
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:03,679
Speaker 2: not going to talk about that, which is only about

194
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:09,960
Speaker 2: four people. And sure, And so then I became a

195
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:13,079
Speaker 2: dad and I sobered up. And then Bob died and

196
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,040
Speaker 2: they read the obituary thing that I did in the

197
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,480
Speaker 2: La Times said you're a good writer. I'm like, I

198
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 2: don't even remember writing that.

199
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:22,640
Speaker 3: And then I said, well, it's usually the best writing

200
00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:24,080
Speaker 3: is when you go back and you read it and.

201
00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:28,160
Speaker 5: You're like, I don't I wrote that. Yeah, Wow, that's weird.

202
00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:32,480
Speaker 2: Yeah. And then I thought, right, yeah. And then I thought,

203
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:34,960
Speaker 2: I have all these letters from my mom, and I

204
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:36,800
Speaker 2: know you guys do too, and you probably seen my

205
00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:39,439
Speaker 2: mom's notes and stuff. So I thought, okay, that makes sense.

206
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:40,880
Speaker 2: I called my sisters. I got all of them, I

207
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:42,480
Speaker 2: sort of line them up. I said, okay, here's a

208
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:46,000
Speaker 2: road map, and I and I put the all the

209
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:49,400
Speaker 2: letters in here as you can see it, of my

210
00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:51,840
Speaker 2: mom's and they I put the actual you know her

211
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:52,800
Speaker 2: writing and everything.

212
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:55,960
Speaker 4: I loved that part of Yeah, it was so special.

213
00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 4: It's such a great window into Loretta's love for you.

214
00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:01,720
Speaker 2: And you got let me, let me read this one.

215
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 2: It's nice, it says, dear son, don't release your memoir

216
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:10,000
Speaker 2: the same day as Britney spears. Come on, Yeah, you guys,

217
00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 2: you know yeah, well you guys. You knew my mom

218
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:18,079
Speaker 2: and my dad, and I knew your parents, and Andrea,

219
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,640
Speaker 2: you know we missed your mom. Did you ever talk

220
00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:22,840
Speaker 2: about that? She was she?

221
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,479
Speaker 4: I just told that story, just told that story.

222
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:27,640
Speaker 2: Of your birthday.

223
00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 4: Beautiful text you sent me.

224
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 1: I actually read the text and teared up because I've

225
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 1: saved it. You sent it to me like three years ago,

226
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:37,360
Speaker 1: just a few months after my mom passed, and it

227
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:39,960
Speaker 1: was it was the day of your ma, of Loretta's birthday,

228
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:42,559
Speaker 1: and Billie was asking everyone, you know, when's your birthday?

229
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:43,559
Speaker 4: When's your birthday?

230
00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:45,679
Speaker 1: It reminded you of my mom, and you sent me

231
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:48,719
Speaker 1: this beautiful text, and I cried, and I've saved it

232
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:50,640
Speaker 1: because I just want to read it forever. It was

233
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:54,600
Speaker 1: so special and loving and what a beautiful gift that.

234
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,160
Speaker 1: And you do this all the time too. You you

235
00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,040
Speaker 1: you're like that, You'll just send random text out of

236
00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,240
Speaker 1: the blue saying I'm thinking of you and I love you,

237
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,280
Speaker 1: and that's it's very much like Bob.

238
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:07,760
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, I think I got that from him. He

239
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:09,760
Speaker 2: never left anything on the table, and that's you know,

240
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 2: you guys know, it's it's really his legacy that we

241
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,120
Speaker 2: have to continue, which is like, just tell everybody that

242
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:17,240
Speaker 2: you love him, you care about him.

243
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, and tell them that you're busy, tell them that

244
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:22,440
Speaker 3: you're very busy while telling Yeah, I.

245
00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:24,640
Speaker 2: Talk about him in almost every interview because if I don't,

246
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:26,800
Speaker 2: it'll weather it gets really bad.

247
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, he'll want you.

248
00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,680
Speaker 3: I have a picture of him hanging over my desk

249
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 3: up here. That was an actual little painting that somebody did.

250
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:38,120
Speaker 3: So he's just always he's just always up here. So

251
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:40,000
Speaker 3: I make sure and make inappropriate jokes just so.

252
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:42,920
Speaker 2: That he what do you think people want to know?

253
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:44,840
Speaker 2: I mean, this is so cool that we're all talking together.

254
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 2: We as you guys have probably talked about and people

255
00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:49,600
Speaker 2: are listening, know that we've we've stayed very close over

256
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,319
Speaker 2: the years. Although now Bob was was the guy who

257
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:53,199
Speaker 2: kept us all together.

258
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:56,240
Speaker 5: So yeah, yeah, he was the patriarch. Yeah.

259
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, and he was a nag too. He would call.

260
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 3: You, well, you couldn't tell him no because you knew

261
00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:04,720
Speaker 3: he wasn't going to give it up and you weren't.

262
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:07,280
Speaker 3: That wasn't the end of it, you know what I mean, Like, no,

263
00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:09,720
Speaker 3: I gotta be like you'd hear the guilt and the

264
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:11,319
Speaker 3: thing and you know.

265
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 2: The two hardest chapters. Oh go ahead, I'm sorry.

266
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:17,079
Speaker 1: Andrea, Well, I might be talking about what you're about

267
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 1: to talk about, which is the last chapter of your book,

268
00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:23,920
Speaker 1: which details the day that you found out Bob passed

269
00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:26,920
Speaker 1: and then the immediate aftermath the weeks following that. And

270
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:28,880
Speaker 1: I had never I know, I've never talked to you

271
00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:32,840
Speaker 1: guys about that day and how we found out when

272
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:35,000
Speaker 1: Bob passed. And so that was really cathartic for me

273
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:38,600
Speaker 1: just to read those emotions and revisit those feelings.

274
00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:42,000
Speaker 4: Learnt, Like what what I didn't know how you found out?

275
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,920
Speaker 1: How you were driving Billy around he was napping and

276
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,160
Speaker 1: then you pulled over and like just fell to your

277
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 1: knees in the parking lot.

278
00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:50,720
Speaker 2: I got a call a few weeks before from my

279
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:53,120
Speaker 2: publicist on the weekend, and he was like he called

280
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:55,720
Speaker 2: and Caitlyn answered, he couldn't get me. I was asleep,

281
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 2: and Kitlyn answered, he called Kaitlyn and she said, and

282
00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 2: he said it's John okay, And I was like, yeah,

283
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 2: why he's sleepy? You want me to wake him up?

284
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:04,160
Speaker 2: And he's like, no, no, no, no. Uh. I just

285
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 2: got a call from TMZ and they said, sources said

286
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:10,840
Speaker 2: that John went down in a plane crash near San Diego,

287
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:14,600
Speaker 2: private plane. And clearly their sources were wrong, because.

288
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:15,120
Speaker 4: You know, oh yeah.

289
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:18,840
Speaker 2: Two weeks later, Matt gets the same call about something

290
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,800
Speaker 2: about Bob. So he calls, calls me and I and

291
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:23,760
Speaker 2: I pulled over because yeah, Billy was I was driving

292
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 2: him around to fall asleep in the back, and I

293
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:27,959
Speaker 2: pulled over in the commons over here. I talked to

294
00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:29,679
Speaker 2: him and said, is Bobo Camick? What do you mean

295
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,400
Speaker 2: it is Boboka? I don't know. So well, have you

296
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:33,960
Speaker 2: talked to him today? I said, no, he's on the road.

297
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:37,160
Speaker 2: I'm sure he's fine. He played some show last night. Okay, Well,

298
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:38,320
Speaker 2: just why Matt? Why?

299
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:38,920
Speaker 5: Well?

300
00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:41,160
Speaker 2: I got a call sources say, I go, so your

301
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:43,319
Speaker 2: sources can kiss my ass, because last week they had

302
00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:47,320
Speaker 2: me dying him. Two weeks ago, I said, he said, okay, okay.

303
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:50,000
Speaker 2: So I called Bob, didn't answer, texted him a couple

304
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,480
Speaker 2: of times, didn't answer. Called Kelly, didn't answer. Then I

305
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:56,240
Speaker 2: get a text from Candice saying that she got a

306
00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:59,040
Speaker 2: DM from somebody in Florida saying, Hey, I'm sorry to

307
00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:01,680
Speaker 2: have to tell you this, but that Bob died and

308
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 2: my sister's a cop on the scene. And Candas was like,

309
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:06,080
Speaker 2: you better not be kidding. She I'll send you the

310
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:10,160
Speaker 2: police report. So I'm reading this thinking, oh no, this

311
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:13,400
Speaker 2: is too many, you know, Matt and YZ. So then

312
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:15,240
Speaker 2: I called Candace and she explained it to me. As

313
00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 2: I'm talking to Candace, Kelly calls me and she's just

314
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 2: wailing and I just hit the asphalt with my knees.

315
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 2: I'm like, no, no, yeah.

316
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:27,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, they're the same thing.

317
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:31,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, what a gut punch.

318
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 2: At this beginning of this episode is just like the

319
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:38,280
Speaker 2: colonoscopy and and mammogram, uh start from.

320
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:42,720
Speaker 1: That's the one. I think, Yes, hey, we talk about

321
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:43,680
Speaker 1: everything on this show.

322
00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:44,240
Speaker 4: Nothing.

323
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:48,560
Speaker 3: It's HRC, which is also hormone replacement therapy. That's the

324
00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:52,560
Speaker 3: acronym of the podcast. That's our target audience, that's our

325
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:53,240
Speaker 3: target audience.

326
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:55,840
Speaker 2: So that was the I thought that was gonna be

327
00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 2: the hardest chapter of the Bob And then the first

328
00:14:57,680 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 2: chapter when I got a dui and it was this horrific,

329
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:02,160
Speaker 2: you know, my lowest point in life, and I was

330
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:04,000
Speaker 2: going to meet Bob at the poem. I thought those

331
00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:11,040
Speaker 2: two the two hardest were the Full House chapters. Really, yeah, because.

332
00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 1: Was it hard to remember or hard to talk about

333
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 1: those times? Or why was it difficult?

334
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:18,760
Speaker 2: Because I know how important the show was to so

335
00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:21,960
Speaker 2: many people. I didn't know why. And Jeff was over

336
00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 2: here a couple of weeks ago and he said, he said,

337
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:26,480
Speaker 2: when did you come He's writing a book to Jeff Franklin.

338
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:28,360
Speaker 2: He said, when did you come to terms with the Full House?

339
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 2: I said, when I wrote this, when I actually sat

340
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:36,000
Speaker 2: down pended paper computer, because I've always you know, my

341
00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:38,640
Speaker 2: feeling of it. It was double edged sword and you

342
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 2: guys probably had some of it.

343
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:42,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, very very similar where you're like, I love this

344
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 3: and it gave me sort of the career that I had,

345
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,000
Speaker 3: but also at the same time, like I can do

346
00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:51,080
Speaker 3: other things too, you know, but it's such a special

347
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:52,040
Speaker 3: place in people's heart.

348
00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:54,480
Speaker 2: Yes, so I wanted to do it justice, and so

349
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:56,920
Speaker 2: I didn't I get it was the last two chapters

350
00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:00,800
Speaker 2: I wrote. I just kept writing, Bob. And you know,

351
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:02,480
Speaker 2: it's eight years too, as you guys know, and there's

352
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 2: a lot of people, a lot of things involved. So

353
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:08,200
Speaker 2: I started off with the reading of the pilot and

354
00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:10,320
Speaker 2: it was at the it was at the Century Plaza Hotel,

355
00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:13,680
Speaker 2: and I talked about I was, you know, I was

356
00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 2: on General Hospital and worked and I was the big

357
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:19,200
Speaker 2: star of the thing. And and you know when when

358
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:20,880
Speaker 2: it was pitched to me, Look, I always wanted to

359
00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 2: be on a Gary Marshall type show. You and Gary

360
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:24,800
Speaker 2: actually helped me get the get the job. And he

361
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:31,080
Speaker 2: also told me get a catchphrase. Everybody. Yeah, yeah, you

362
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:36,120
Speaker 2: guys know it's the name of your podcasts. Thanks and

363
00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:38,840
Speaker 2: and and Billy. Now he's he's he's asking me about

364
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:41,840
Speaker 2: catch phrase. He wanted to know everyone's catchphrase and what

365
00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:44,000
Speaker 2: did DJ have one? He said, oh, my lant. He goes,

366
00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:47,000
Speaker 2: what's that? But he his deal is he just puts

367
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 2: baby at the end of it. I'm going to the bathroom, baby,

368
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:53,880
Speaker 2: So picking my nose, baby.

369
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 4: The apple doesn't fall f Yeah, it's weird.

370
00:16:57,480 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 2: I wonder where he gets that his humor is closer

371
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 2: to Bob's then to mine. Wow, sehrty and funny. So uh,

372
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:06,639
Speaker 2: I thought I was going to be on this show.

373
00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:09,000
Speaker 2: So they told me because it was Millan Braad show,

374
00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:10,480
Speaker 2: Oh this is going to be like Buzz and Buddies,

375
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:12,760
Speaker 2: but there's three of you and no cross dressing until

376
00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:15,320
Speaker 2: maybe season two or three. And the kids are like,

377
00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:18,120
Speaker 2: you know, kids are back here. You know, Okay, buzz

378
00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:20,600
Speaker 2: and Budies. That sounds fun of comic a musician, right,

379
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:23,399
Speaker 2: And then they were doing a lot of work on

380
00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:26,080
Speaker 2: the casting of the of you girls, and I was like, well,

381
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:27,800
Speaker 2: just putting a lot of effort into the kids that

382
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:29,199
Speaker 2: are going to be in the background. But you know,

383
00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:32,200
Speaker 2: so I walk into the reading like the like, I

384
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:34,000
Speaker 2: think I'm the big shot, you know, and your your

385
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:35,840
Speaker 2: moms knew me from General Hospital.

386
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:38,199
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, yeah it's Blacky. It's Blacky.

387
00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:42,040
Speaker 2: Oh my god, can this is mom and sisters? I think?

388
00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:45,000
Speaker 2: And I walk in and so we start the reading

389
00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:46,720
Speaker 2: and I wrote it all pretty cool, did you see?

390
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,960
Speaker 2: Like I actually put the script in the in the book, right,

391
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:53,280
Speaker 2: And I sit down and I get these big applause

392
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:57,000
Speaker 2: and everybody, and then we start and you you mainly

393
00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:02,240
Speaker 2: Jody blew the roof off the place, and every joke

394
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:04,239
Speaker 2: that you got, I slipped a little further in my

395
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:07,679
Speaker 2: seat like this, and they were laughing so frigging hard

396
00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:10,160
Speaker 2: they couldn't even hear my lines. And I'm like, oh

397
00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:12,720
Speaker 2: my god. And I remember running out to the lobby

398
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 2: and I had a quarter and I jammed it into

399
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:17,439
Speaker 2: the phone and I called my managers, like, get me

400
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:19,320
Speaker 2: the f off this show. It's ropper room.

401
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:20,280
Speaker 5: You know what.

402
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:23,080
Speaker 3: It's so funny too, because I remember when you first

403
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:24,280
Speaker 3: told that story.

404
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:28,280
Speaker 5: I was like, really I intimidated John.

405
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 4: At age five age still.

406
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:36,239
Speaker 3: I mean, it's just that story to me, like was

407
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:39,480
Speaker 3: so funny because it was I was like, wow, I

408
00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 3: had you know, It's just funny to hear the things

409
00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 3: that I don't really remember. I sort of vaguely remember

410
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:48,520
Speaker 3: the you know, the the table read, but like hearing

411
00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:51,399
Speaker 3: it from the adults around us, what their perspective was,

412
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,040
Speaker 3: like hearing it from you and Dave and Jeff and

413
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:57,720
Speaker 3: you know, all these bob and what their experience was.

414
00:18:57,760 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 5: It's crazy.

415
00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:01,000
Speaker 1: Howl did that feeling last of you wanting to get

416
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 1: the f off of Full House?

417
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:04,840
Speaker 4: As you result that.

418
00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 5: Eight and a half seasons.

419
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 2: Actually, well, that's a good question. I mean, first of all,

420
00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:12,040
Speaker 2: it was so I started to but I started to

421
00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:14,800
Speaker 2: get into it obviously, and I knew that you guys

422
00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:17,960
Speaker 2: were your kids were, you know, we're going to be

423
00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:20,000
Speaker 2: huge stars on there. And instead of being like a

424
00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:21,720
Speaker 2: dad on Webster or something, I said, I got to

425
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 2: get in the middle of this, and you know, I

426
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:28,200
Speaker 2: nurtured that Michelle Jesse relationship, which just which pissed Bob

427
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:31,800
Speaker 2: off even more. This first chapter of the full House

428
00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:33,760
Speaker 2: stuff is called your Baby's a Pig, which was.

429
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,480
Speaker 3: Which is one of the lines that we were like, wow,

430
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:39,600
Speaker 3: Jesse's calling children bigs.

431
00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:43,240
Speaker 2: Yeah no, And I was so worried that you know,

432
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:45,359
Speaker 2: we're going to steal show what you did. But that

433
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:48,280
Speaker 2: line was the highest testing line of the whole pilot.

434
00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:49,200
Speaker 2: So there.

435
00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:53,160
Speaker 4: Where credit is due.

436
00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:54,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, exactly.

437
00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:56,879
Speaker 2: And Bob and I, you know, we just didn't like

438
00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:59,399
Speaker 2: each other for for a good long time, as you

439
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,880
Speaker 2: guys probably remember. And it wasn't that I didn't think

440
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:04,879
Speaker 2: he was talented or funny. I mean I thought he

441
00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:06,639
Speaker 2: was a genius. I just wouldn't tell him, you know,

442
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:11,080
Speaker 2: until years later, right, And he you know. He his

443
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:13,760
Speaker 2: process was very different than mine, as you guys remember,

444
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:16,280
Speaker 2: And I came from working with Jack Klugman on the

445
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:18,520
Speaker 2: show right before and where we'd break it apart every

446
00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:21,720
Speaker 2: scene and we'd talk it out, and Bob just wanted

447
00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:23,600
Speaker 2: to take a fork and stab his penis with it

448
00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 2: and say, I hate my penis, you know right, I

449
00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:27,120
Speaker 2: could just.

450
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:27,840
Speaker 5: Be an idiot.

451
00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:37,760
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, right, yeah Jones, yeah yeah yeah, unfurling your inside.

452
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:39,280
Speaker 3: I mean, it was just and people are like, what

453
00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:41,719
Speaker 3: is wrong with you guys? You're like, I couldn't explain

454
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:43,680
Speaker 3: it to you if I tried, and I don't know why,

455
00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:45,360
Speaker 3: but it will always be funny to us.

456
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:46,680
Speaker 4: It's just Bob. Yeah.

457
00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:48,760
Speaker 2: Well, you guys missed, so you wouldn't. So we'd have

458
00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:50,440
Speaker 2: notes at the end of the like a couple of

459
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:52,880
Speaker 2: days or whatever, and you guys missed those those days.

460
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:54,399
Speaker 2: I should show you know. I was thinking the.

461
00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:55,879
Speaker 4: Kids didn't get to go to the notes.

462
00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:57,040
Speaker 5: Thank god, though.

463
00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:00,480
Speaker 3: Can you imagine imagine notes, because think about notes when

464
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:03,320
Speaker 3: we did Fuller, I would just be drawing Boobs on

465
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:04,240
Speaker 3: canvas's script.

466
00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:06,920

Speaker 5: Yeah? I mean, well, I mean here's the thing.

492
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:04,040
Speaker 3: I don't think we probably knew how much like dating, debauchery,

493
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:09,520
Speaker 3: et cetera, was going on with you guys outside, you know,

494
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:13,280
Speaker 3: either with anybody on the crew, or the cast or

495
00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:15,400
Speaker 3: but you know, we were sort of oblivious to all

496
00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:18,080
Speaker 3: of that stuff, creating some of the stories that we heard.

497
00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:19,640
Speaker 5: Well, I mean, I mean, I don't know, like there

498
00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:21,320

00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:25,000
Speaker 5: Amongst our cast.

501
00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:27,240
Speaker 3: I'm saying like, I don't know, I feel like I've

502
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:30,439
Speaker 3: heard stories of like, you know, certain like somebody that

503
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:32,480

506
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,320
Speaker 2: You know, we would get massages before the right show.

507
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,439
Speaker 2: I wanted to really be relaxed, and so and we

508
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:43,800
Speaker 2: had this husband and wife team and husband I think

509
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:45,919
Speaker 2: usually would do Dave in the way and then they

510
00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:48,680

00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:10,800
Speaker 2: I don't know what happened in there, but I did.

521
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:12,960
Speaker 2: Over here. Uh, I was listening to the doors, like

522
00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:15,040
Speaker 2: can I touch it? I don't know what she wanted

523
00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:16,919
Speaker 2: to touch, but it was I heard that.

524
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:21,399

00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:24,440
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I didn't learn that until thirty years later.

526
00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:27,080
Speaker 2: Tell right, now, do you guys remember that I got

527
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:28,720
Speaker 2: a death threat? I do.

528
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:29,359
Speaker 4: I remember that.

529
00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:32,119
Speaker 1: So you were getting death threats that I was probably

530
00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:35,719
Speaker 1: by letters in the nineties. It was not like, oh

531
00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:39,400
Speaker 1: yeah the creative you were getting death threats. So when

532
00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:41,959
Speaker 1: they brought the audience in on that Friday night, like

533
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,560
Speaker 1: they set up metal detectors for the first times, like

534
00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:47,600
Speaker 1: this was this was unheard of back in the early nineties,

535
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:50,920
Speaker 1: and I could feel like this nervous energy all throughout

536
00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:54,000
Speaker 1: backstage or like uh. And then right before you went

537
00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:57,199
Speaker 1: out for your intro, John, you did the Sign of

538
00:23:57,240 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 1: the Cross, and then I think it was Bob, maybe Dave,

539
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:02,040
Speaker 1: but I think it was Bob who leaned over to

540
00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:04,399
Speaker 1: you and said, can I have your parking spot?

541
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:07,479
Speaker 2: That's it?

542
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:09,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, it sounds like a Bob thing. I think I

543
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:09,879
Speaker 4: thing that was about it.

544
00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:12,320
Speaker 2: I had some deranged idiot that was he showed up

605
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:36,480
Speaker 2: on a talk show saying it too. I just found

606
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:38,439
Speaker 2: it recently where she said I was so ugly that

607
00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:40,600
Speaker 2: she covered my face with a blanket when she took

608
00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:44,040
Speaker 2: me home so the neighbors didn't see me. No, someday

609
00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:45,719
Speaker 2: he'll grow into his looks. I think she told him

610
00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:49,520
Speaker 2: that he had pet monkey or something. But I wasn't

611
00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:52,040
Speaker 2: the best. I was a little I wasn't a great

612
00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:54,959
Speaker 2: looking baby. Okay, telling you, I'll show you pictures.

Speaker 5: Everybody got to grow into their.

614
00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,520
Speaker 2: Look true, it took me longer than that. Okay, you know,

615
00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 2: looked like Rickles and look at you now. Well, but

616
00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:06,800
Speaker 2: when I was sort of that moment where I was

617
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:10,600
Speaker 2: coming out of the caterpillar phasing, into the butterfly phase

618
00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:13,639
Speaker 2: or whatever the girls started. You know, I was in

619
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:16,680
Speaker 2: high school and no girls liked me. Now, nobody was

620
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:18,560
Speaker 2: interested in me, and then all of a sudden it

621
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:21,639
Speaker 2: just started to happen. It was so weird. And I

622
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:26,320
Speaker 2: remember so this I'm in marching band, and this kid says, hey,

623
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:28,720
Speaker 2: so and so, I know so and so sister, and

624
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:30,320
Speaker 2: she said that you're really cute and wants to go

625
00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:32,320
Speaker 2: out with you. And I stopped in my tracks and

626
00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:34,639
Speaker 2: trombone guy hit me in the back whatever, and I said, what,

627
00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:37,399
Speaker 2: you can't tell anybody? I said, okay, And then that

628
00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:39,520
Speaker 2: night I told everybody. It was a party, you know,

629
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:40,160
Speaker 2: block party.

630
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 3: Right.

631
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,320
Speaker 2: Turns out that the girl had a boyfriend, which I

632
00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:45,359
Speaker 2: didn't know about, big football player, you know, on the

633
00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:48,480
Speaker 2: football team. And I'm sitting in a car and he

634
00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:50,000
Speaker 2: comes and knocks on it and I rolled the window

635
00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:53,200
Speaker 2: on a high damn black punches me right in the eye,

636
00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:56,280
Speaker 2: really hard, black eye. And I was like, oh my god,

637
00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:59,119
Speaker 2: this is the most humili and it was. And back then,

638
00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:02,840
Speaker 2: there was no word. Bullying didn't exist, right, and and

639
00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:04,960
Speaker 2: you know, and I was too embarrassed to talk to

640
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:06,840
Speaker 2: my mom and dad about it. I think they bust

641
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:09,040
Speaker 2: the saw but so but I was living in fear

642
00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:11,359
Speaker 2: because this guy was always after me, every time I

643
00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:13,480
Speaker 2: would turn a corner. And I'll never forget it. It

644
00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:17,480
Speaker 2: was I walked into the bathroom and on it he'd

645
00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:19,880
Speaker 2: written on the mirror I'm gonna kill you, big nose,

646
00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:22,320
Speaker 2: and I'm looking at my face this black eye, and

647
00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:24,719
Speaker 2: I go, that's it. I've got to do something. I've

648
00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:28,200
Speaker 2: got to do something drastic. I've got to become famous.

649
00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:31,000
Speaker 2: That was what through my head, and I thought, Okay,

650
00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:33,040
Speaker 2: if I become famous, I'll have bodyguards. Then they'll beat

651
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:35,439
Speaker 2: him up. And to be honest with you, like my

652
00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:38,720
Speaker 2: whole I remember each you know level that I got, Like,

653
00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:40,480
Speaker 2: I'll get a TV show. I'll show that son of

654
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:42,040
Speaker 2: a bitch, I'm gonna play with the Beach Boys, and

655
00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:43,920
Speaker 2: I'm gonna invite him to the show and I'll come backstage.

656
00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:45,479
Speaker 2: I'll be doing a drum soll and my bodyguards will

657
00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:48,120
Speaker 2: beat him up. And I swear I that was going

658
00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:52,960
Speaker 2: through my mind up until today. But did you guys

659
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:55,280
Speaker 2: have anything that propelled Well, we have a special guest

660
00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:59,200
Speaker 2: for you, John Oh, come on, I wrote him. I

661
00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:01,640
Speaker 2: wanted to dedicate the whole book to him, but I'm

662
00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:06,000
Speaker 2: not sure he could read so. But I do look

663
00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:09,480
Speaker 2: always forgiven, like we've all. You know, I've moved on, obviously,

664
00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:13,080
Speaker 2: it's it's you know, I got the last laugh. Probably

665
00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:13,600
Speaker 2: I'm happy.

666
00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:16,800
Speaker 1: Did you ever try to find him or tell him

667
00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:18,240
Speaker 1: any of this or give him a free copy of

668
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 1: your book?

669
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:19,000
Speaker 5: Maybe?

670
00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:22,280
Speaker 2: I mean right, well, like a phantom limb of a

671
00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:25,440
Speaker 2: soldier in war, it's always naying it may I do

672
00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:27,720
Speaker 2: wish I haven't seen him, but if I do, I

673
00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:30,280
Speaker 2: would I would be super gentleman, say hey, remember me

674
00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:33,160
Speaker 2: black eye. Oh yeah, you don't have to stand up,

675
00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:35,960
Speaker 2: you don't have to clean the toilet, stand up. I

676
00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:38,520
Speaker 2: wanted to tell you thank you. Without you, I don't

677
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:40,000
Speaker 2: know if I would be where I'm at today. And

678
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:42,320
Speaker 2: you've you've done everything. You know, you've really propelled me.

679
00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 2: And I know we were kids and it was the thing.

680
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:46,400
Speaker 2: You know, sorry about that, you know, and I wish

681
00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:48,920
Speaker 2: you the best and walk away. But that I would

682
00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:52,959
Speaker 2: turn around and say, but you know, the girl that

683
00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:55,000
Speaker 2: you was your girlfriend? I dated her for three years

684
00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:57,040
Speaker 2: and she said you were hung like a finch a

685
00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:59,840
Speaker 2: very small place. So and then I would just walk away.

686
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:01,200
Speaker 2: That's sort of the scene there.

687
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:04,200
Speaker 3: Sat that rank drop that you've ever thought about that

688
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:07,240
Speaker 3: ever every night before bed or anything.

689
00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:10,719
Speaker 2: Right, So I tried to find those moments, you know.

690
00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:12,840
Speaker 2: I put in a moment that got a lot of

691
00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:16,800
Speaker 2: attention about I was madly in love with this girl,

692
00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:19,920
Speaker 2: madly in love with her, and she broke my heart

693
00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 2: and she cheated on me. I walked in and they

694
00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:24,240
Speaker 2: were asleep, but I saw four feet in the bed.

695
00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:27,800
Speaker 2: Then I ran out, crying and running down the hall,

696
00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:31,080
Speaker 2: down the driveway. And the reason why I put that

697
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,360
Speaker 2: story in because years later, when we did Full House,

698
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:35,400
Speaker 2: I don't know if you girls knew this. The show

699
00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:37,000
Speaker 2: wasn't didn't do great the first season.

700
00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:38,719
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, we were barely.

701
00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:39,360
Speaker 2: We didn't.

702
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:41,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, we were going to pick thirteen.

703
00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:42,160
Speaker 4: Critics hated it.

704
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:44,600
Speaker 2: Well, the oh yeah, we should talk about that never

705
00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:49,520
Speaker 2: changed the back thirteen though. Before we got that, you know,

706
00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:55,480
Speaker 2: Jeff went into ABC with Milan Boat and they said, well,

707
00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:57,440
Speaker 2: why should we keep the show on because we're thinking

708
00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:00,280
Speaker 2: about canceling and they have dived in the they were

709
00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:03,880
Speaker 2: leaving and Dave Jeff said, I have an idea, and

710
00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:06,680
Speaker 2: then Tom and Bob were like, well, and he showed that.

711
00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:09,360
Speaker 2: He showed this guy. Uh anyway, he showed him a

712
00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:12,719
Speaker 2: scene of me and Michelle and Dave when we were

713
00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:16,120
Speaker 2: feeding her cough medicine. Oh yeah, and it hadn't aired yet,

714
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:18,840
Speaker 2: and you know, look at the chemistry, look at these guys,

715
00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:21,360
Speaker 2: and you know, and and we're doing something that no

716
00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:23,440
Speaker 2: other show has ever done before. And everybody was like,

717
00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:26,440
Speaker 2: what have you done that no one's done before? We're

718
00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:29,880
Speaker 2: raising a baby on television. And they were like, oh,

719
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:31,400
Speaker 2: and that's how we got the back nine. But we

720
00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:34,200
Speaker 2: still didn't do great, and so they said, you know,

721
00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:36,720
Speaker 2: we're going to cancel you guys. Oh no, no, no,

722
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:39,800
Speaker 2: but okay, we're gonna try one thing. We're gonna try

723
00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:42,080
Speaker 2: putting you on after one of our hit shows during

724
00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:44,280
Speaker 2: the summer reruns, and if you get an audience and

725
00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:46,080
Speaker 2: it looks like they're gonna follow you, then we'll keep

726
00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:49,400
Speaker 2: for season two. That show was Who's the Boss starring

727
00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:51,920
Speaker 2: Tony Danza, and Tony Danza was the one who was

728
00:31:51,960 --> 00:32:00,560
Speaker 2: in bed with my girlfriend as exactly, so Who's the Boss?

729
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:00,760
Speaker 3: Now?

730
00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:04,640
Speaker 2: Well, anyway, so those are the things, so what else?

731
00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:09,440
Speaker 2: But then it took me I stopped and thought about

732
00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:12,240
Speaker 2: what the show meant to people. And like you said,

733
00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:15,080
Speaker 2: the critics got in my ear and I let them,

734
00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:17,320
Speaker 2: and most of the time I don't. And they've been

735
00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:18,640
Speaker 2: very good to me for a lot of things. They

736
00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 2: love this book, and you know, and then you know

737
00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,040
Speaker 2: something they've not liked it with that's, you know, whatever.

738
00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:27,320
Speaker 2: But they hated Full House and I and you know,

739
00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:29,720
Speaker 2: they didn't think it was sophisticated, right, and it wasn't,

740
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:32,479
Speaker 2: you know. And there were shows like Seinfeld coming up

741
00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:34,400
Speaker 2: and some of these other shows, and you know, I

742
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:36,000
Speaker 2: felt like, why am I not on that kind of show?

743
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:39,360
Speaker 2: What I realized when I was writing this is that

744
00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:45,120
Speaker 2: in lieu of sophistication, there was sweetness and and and

745
00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:47,600
Speaker 2: it gave a chance for the brain to step aside

746
00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:50,600
Speaker 2: and for you to feel the heart, to feel something

747
00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:57,840
Speaker 2: wholesome and good. And the show. Watching the show made

748
00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:01,160
Speaker 2: us made us think about the good in us, in

749
00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:05,640
Speaker 2: the in the viewer right right. And I mean when

750
00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:06,720
Speaker 2: did you guys come to it?

751
00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:10,480
Speaker 3: I mean, like as far as sort of reconciling with

752
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:13,760
Speaker 3: what the show was, I mean, you know, I'll be honest,

753
00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:16,000
Speaker 3: it took me a while. It definitely took me a while,

754
00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:19,720
Speaker 3: I think, growing up on the show and going through

755
00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:23,240
Speaker 3: all of my awkward phases, and I mean, you know,

756
00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:25,920
Speaker 3: just all of the things that you get made fun of,

757
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:29,920
Speaker 3: your teeth, your hair, your clothes, your whatever, dance move,

758
00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:31,040
Speaker 3: you know, all of those things.

759
00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:33,680
Speaker 2: Who was making fun of you? There's no social.

760
00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:35,640
Speaker 5: Media, yeah, but it was.

761
00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:38,000
Speaker 3: I mean I'd show up to school and I would get,

762
00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:40,000
Speaker 3: you know, apple's thrown at my head at lunch, and

763
00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:43,000
Speaker 3: get tripped and get pushed, and get stuff written on

764
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:45,280
Speaker 3: my locker and get you know, and I went to

765
00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:49,440
Speaker 3: public school half the time, so it took a long

766
00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:53,600
Speaker 3: time to kind of just like sort of pull all

767
00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:59,080
Speaker 3: of that apart, right. But now that I've gotten older,

768
00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:04,040
Speaker 3: I think I've i under I understand how special it

769
00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:08,080
Speaker 3: is to have something that taps into that heart, and

770
00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:10,560
Speaker 3: like you were saying, there's not a lot of shows

771
00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:13,680
Speaker 3: that necessarily do that. And I've always said that the

772
00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:16,160
Speaker 3: appeal of this show was the fact that we genuinely

773
00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:19,759
Speaker 3: loved each other in real life, and that the relationships

774
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:21,400
Speaker 3: you were seeing on screen.

775
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:24,320
Speaker 5: Were how we actually were together.

776
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:26,600
Speaker 3: And I've always said that that is why I think

777
00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:30,160
Speaker 3: people really gravitated toward this show because they were watching
