Speaker 1: Hey, there are Fana Ritos. Welcome back to a brand
Speaker 1: new episode of how Rude Tanner Ritos. Today we have
Speaker 1: a crossover that no Full House fan or critic saw coming.
Speaker 1: We are sitting down with Ryan Alexander Tanner, the author
Speaker 1: of the full House Reviewed blog. Four years he wrote
Speaker 1: blog posts absolutely roasting full House and we're not talking
Speaker 1: about not just gentle teasing here, but full on scorched
Speaker 1: earth criticism. He hated our hugs, he mocked our morals,
Speaker 1: and he had thoughts about our laugh track. And yet
Speaker 1: somehow he still agreed to come on our podcast. So
Speaker 1: we're gonna have a little fun today. What makes a
Speaker 1: man dedicate that much in a to hating a show
Speaker 1: about family and love. Let's find out, and maybe, just maybe,
Speaker 1: by the end of this interview, we'll turn him into
Speaker 1: a Fanerito, So buckle up, Fanarito's. This one might be
Speaker 1: how Rude. Indeed, welcome to the podcast. Ryan, Allie here,
Speaker 1: mister Tanner here, I know my welcome to Howard Tannerto's Hello.
Speaker 2: I can't believe this, right you are you.
Speaker 3: Never in a million years thought that that anyone would
Speaker 3: read your blog, particularly us, and then ask you to be.
Speaker 4: On the show. But sir, welcome, welcome, well, welcome to
Speaker 4: the full.
Speaker 1: How many years did you spend writing the full House
Speaker 1: Reviewed blog?
Speaker 2: Well? I did other things in that time.
Speaker 4: Okay, that's disappointing.
Speaker 3: You want entirely and entirely devoted to hating full House.
Speaker 4: Commitment.
Speaker 2: I was doing other things. But I think it was
Speaker 2: like four years, right.
Speaker 4: It was one hundred and ninety two episodes full House.
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Yeah, did you review all of them?
Speaker 4: Or no?
Speaker 2: I did you did?
Speaker 5: Wow?
Speaker 1: That's dedication.
Speaker 4: That is such dedication.
Speaker 2: I didn't get a master's degree.
Speaker 4: But you did.
Speaker 3: But you you got one in in uh full House reviews,
Speaker 3: So fair enough.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so what inspired you?
Speaker 3: By the way, for those of you who didn't listen
Speaker 3: to our podcast a little while back, where we read
Speaker 3: uh Ryan Alexander Tanner's full House Reviewed blog, which was
Speaker 3: all about how ridiculous uh full House is and how
Speaker 3: really dumb it is if you if you pay attention,
Speaker 3: and we read it. It was a It was definitely
Speaker 3: a non kid friendly episode. It's a little more explicit,
Speaker 3: but damn is it hilarious. It was so much fun
Speaker 3: because you literally said all of the things.
Speaker 4: That we say all the time.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't see it. Can I just say it
Speaker 2: real quick? It was so gracious of you hat me on.
Speaker 5: It was almost like a healing experience to be like
Speaker 5: they're reading it and.
Speaker 2: They like it. Like if you.
Speaker 5: Honestly, like I'm a sensitive person, if you had read
Speaker 5: it and been like, this is so hurtful to.
Speaker 2: Me, I would have felt terrible. So it was revalidating.
Speaker 5: Actually, like there's gonna be an ambush.
Speaker 3: No, no, no, it's not gonna be like Zelenski in
Speaker 3: the Oval Office.
Speaker 4: No, we're not gonna Yeah, although you should have want
Speaker 4: a suit. No, I thank you, thank you, thank you. No,
Speaker 4: but really, like we I mean, that's the show is ridiculous.
Speaker 3: It is ridiculous, and it's fun to pour out the
Speaker 3: ridiculousness of it because it's like it's like so many
Speaker 3: people love it and it does have that like warm
Speaker 3: fuzzy place in people's heart. But it's so eighties nineties sitcom.
Speaker 3: You know, it's every sitcom trope. It's all of the silliness,
Speaker 3: and you know it it was a kid family TV show.
Speaker 3: And I think the funny thing is is that we
Speaker 3: never took ourselves seriously even with like fuller.
Speaker 4: We were like, we we are very self.
Speaker 1: Aware, we know what we are and lean into the cheese.
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, but.
Speaker 3: Really, your your review is what I'm thinking all of
Speaker 3: the time.
Speaker 2: Well, thank you, and it is.
Speaker 1: It's very I mean, it is very witty and funny.
Speaker 1: Even if you don't agree, if you're a Full House
Speaker 1: lover to your core, you can still read this blog
Speaker 1: and appreciate it.
Speaker 3: For the guys, very you can love something and make
Speaker 3: fun of it.
Speaker 4: Yes, that's it is okay.
Speaker 3: We're giving you permission to love something and make fun
Speaker 3: of it.
Speaker 4: Ll just make fun of it if you want to
Speaker 4: that you do whatever you want. I'm not here to
Speaker 4: tell you, but it's okay. We're giving your permission.
Speaker 2: A friendship arc right, what we're having.
Speaker 3: Nowhere, it is in our own bottles income And yeah,
Speaker 3: I mean I got a lot of feedback doing it,
Speaker 3: and it was pretty equally people who loved and hated
Speaker 3: Full House.
Speaker 2: You know. Some people were like, yes, these are my.
Speaker 5: Negative feelings, and we were like, I love the show,
Speaker 5: but you know, I can still laugh at your commentary here.
Speaker 5: But I think you had a question before that was
Speaker 5: the start of this. I don't remember we.
Speaker 3: Don't love neither do we we did. I think it
Speaker 3: was what, like, what inspired you to do it?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, Well I used to have a day job,
Speaker 5: like I think you quit my day job in two
Speaker 5: thousand and seven or something, okay, and I would just
Speaker 5: you know, it was like to start a YouTube and
Speaker 5: I just look at crap on the internet all the time, right,
Speaker 5: And then I actually like, I'm an illustrator and a
Speaker 5: comic book artist.
Speaker 2: That's what I do.
Speaker 3: We heard that you you actually did the art for
Speaker 3: Dave's Bread. Yeah, amazing, because that's what we buy. I love,
Speaker 3: I love, I love what they stand for. It's amazing.
Speaker 3: So you again, even one more, one more notch in
Speaker 3: the in yeah, in the work as well.
Speaker 2: And then so I quit to go do a book.
Speaker 2: And then it was I don't know, I guess I
Speaker 2: needed a hobby.
Speaker 5: It's like I spent a bunch of years having a
Speaker 5: crappy job and then training get my career going. And
Speaker 5: so then and I finished my first book, and I
Speaker 5: just had a free time and I was anxious, you know,
Speaker 5: so I know those and I think I wanted to
Speaker 5: read it and it didn't exist. So I was like, oh,
Speaker 5: I'll make it, you know. And then and originally I
Speaker 5: wanted to do Family Matters. Okay, it was not on DVD,
Speaker 5: so I used to get you know, Netflix discs in
Speaker 5: the mail one right, yeah, every time the physical Netflix, Yeah, discs.
Speaker 2: In the mail.
Speaker 4: Remember, and then we're so I loved.
Speaker 2: I think it caught on.
Speaker 5: Like right around when maybe I would have been like,
Speaker 5: all right, this has been going. There was literally like
Speaker 5: one week where it got posted on some forum and
Speaker 5: it went from having like, you know, three hundred readers.
Speaker 2: To like ten thousand, like in two days.
Speaker 4: There's amazing.
Speaker 3: Was that like was like, oh my god, Like was
Speaker 3: that weird? When all of a sudden it just kind
Speaker 3: of blew up.
Speaker 5: It was a little bit like right now, what I
Speaker 5: was just doing this thing and all of a sudden, Yeah,
Speaker 5: I mean it was crazy, and I think you get
Speaker 5: a little bit excited off that, you know. And just
Speaker 5: I had a lot of interactions with people. I mean
Speaker 5: I did it anonymously, but there was like a whole
Speaker 5: community around it.
Speaker 2: And also like it was pretty negative, I would.
Speaker 5: Say, but also like I got a lot of stuff
Speaker 5: like people were finishing their degree or they're raising kids
Speaker 5: at home and they were like, this just helps me,
Speaker 5: Like I read one of these a week, or I
Speaker 5: watched the show, or I jum after my baby goes
Speaker 5: to bed, and you know, they should probably be like
Speaker 5: studying something important, but it's you.
Speaker 4: Know, this is important.
Speaker 2: It's postmodern.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yes, exactly, it's a it's a lesson in postmodern
Speaker 3: uh writing structure.
Speaker 1: People love the predictability of like every Friday they're going
Speaker 1: to open their computer and read, you know, the latest
Speaker 1: post or watch the episode and then read the post.
Speaker 4: And the people like that routine predictability. In an opening
Speaker 4: song I've Happened To It said.
Speaker 5: That like every Friday morning in the office, you know,
Speaker 5: did you read the new f HR?
Speaker 2: And that was always cool.
Speaker 4: It's crazy.
Speaker 5: It was just for fun, and it was like a
Speaker 5: writing exercise, I guess, you know, like I write for
Speaker 5: work and you write a lot of email and stuff,
Speaker 5: and it was just like, you know whatever, four hundred
Speaker 5: words a week, you know, and I probably like a weirdo.
Speaker 2: It's definitely like an obsessive weird so I know, it's like.
Speaker 4: No obsessive things to do, you know what I mean.
Speaker 4: That's what the nets for.
Speaker 3: Well, but originally now it's just for destroying the world.
Speaker 3: But no, but I mean, I I love that, Like
Speaker 3: you just picked something. You're like, I'm gonna this is
Speaker 3: gonna be my funny creative like comedy, and it's great.
Speaker 3: It's really really great. Now we have a few least
Speaker 3: favorite episodes, uh ourselves, Seacrews of course, being the number
Speaker 3: one most hated episode across the board.
Speaker 4: The Sad season one.
Speaker 3: The third episode where the guys go out on some
Speaker 3: fishing trip.
Speaker 4: It's a fishing boat.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a fishing boat and they wind up with
Speaker 3: two girl whatever and it's terrible.
Speaker 6: Uh.
Speaker 3: Jeff Franklin agrees. We agree, but that one is pretty bad.
Speaker 4: But baby love.
Speaker 1: The Howe episode, Howie episode, How did you feel about Howie?
Speaker 1: We need to know?
Speaker 2: I didn't like him?
Speaker 4: Who does welcome?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 4: The obsession obsess.
Speaker 2: We never came back, right, am I correct?
Speaker 4: He did.
Speaker 1: He came back to the wedding, but he was a
Speaker 1: different actor. It was a different kid.
Speaker 4: So that was was that.
Speaker 3: No, the little kid was we used a girl playing
Speaker 3: a boy character.
Speaker 4: Didn't we know it was a It was a older one.
Speaker 1: It was girl twins playing Howie as a toddler and
Speaker 1: I mean yeah, and then when they were old for
Speaker 1: the wedding, Yeah.
Speaker 5: I like how like people who are listening probably know,
Speaker 5: and we're all like, oh.
Speaker 3: We don't know about our own show, which is the
Speaker 3: entire reason we started doing this podcast was because we
Speaker 3: were like realizing.
Speaker 4: That we've never watched the show.
Speaker 3: You watched it, really, we've never watched the show. This
Speaker 3: is literally the first time we're watching all of the episodes,
Speaker 3: and we were like, well, that's why we did the podcast,
Speaker 3: because we're like, what even happens in.
Speaker 1: This you were we were taping our live audience shows on.
Speaker 3: Friday nights, and I didn't care about watching myself. I
Speaker 3: think most of us were like, eh, weird.
Speaker 2: Can I ask you a question?
Speaker 5: I have a curiosity, Yes, I'm curious, Like how famous
Speaker 5: you are? Like do you buy your own groceries? You
Speaker 5: joy my groceries.
Speaker 1: We're very important money, very famous, honey boy.
Speaker 4: Do I let me.
Speaker 2: Tell you how often you get bothered?
Speaker 5: Like how often do people come up and talk and
Speaker 5: let's be all the time?
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, but it's not most of the time.
Speaker 3: I mean luckily, like full House fans are pretty sweet
Speaker 3: and loyal and like excited because even if it's adults,
Speaker 3: it's adults that grew up watching you as a kid,
Speaker 3: so you have this like special place in their heart,
Speaker 3: you know what I mean. It's like it's not like
Speaker 3: other actors are like, God, I hated your kids character.
Speaker 4: So they're like, oh my god, Yeah, I'm so excited
Speaker 4: all the time.
Speaker 3: And when your grocery shopping or I do groceries, do
Speaker 3: my own grocery shopping and having a.
Speaker 5: Really like a stressful day and then someone comes up
Speaker 5: and episode.
Speaker 3: You know is yeah, in the middle of yelling, like
Speaker 3: yelling at your kids in public, and someone comes up
Speaker 3: and you're like.
Speaker 1: Right or during like there's you just don't want to
Speaker 1: be bothered by it, but wheah.
Speaker 4: Or you know, like they they well.
Speaker 3: One of the best worst things that ever happened was
Speaker 3: when right after Bob passed, I had paparazzi just outside
Speaker 3: of my house. You know, by the way, I've rent
Speaker 3: my house. If that gives you any idea of of
Speaker 3: quote unquote how famous I am, it's not.
Speaker 4: I'm a normal person. And anyway, so I.
Speaker 3: Came, I had come out of my house and they
Speaker 3: were getting.
Speaker 4: Pictures of all of us.
Speaker 3: But they happened to get a picture of my daughter,
Speaker 3: who was I think thirteen or fourteen at the.
Speaker 4: Time, with a hoodie on, and they put that.
Speaker 3: Picture online and in magazines and we're like, Jody Sweeten
Speaker 3: looking tired and sad gesus my kid.
Speaker 1: You're like, come on.
Speaker 4: He was like really.
Speaker 3: I was like, hey, I'm getting mistaken as a fourteen
Speaker 3: year old girl. She's like yeah, and I look like
Speaker 3: a forty year old woman. And I was like, well,
Speaker 3: it's working out for one of us. But no, the
Speaker 3: moments like that, when you're just like, you know, or
Speaker 3: when they just try and intentionally antagonize you on camera
Speaker 3: to be like, hey, here's what. Let's bring up something
Speaker 3: you're really you know, hate or don't want to talk
Speaker 3: about while you're walking to your car in front of
Speaker 3: the common collensions are nice, then it's I never mind.
Speaker 1: As long as the intentions are nice and they're not
Speaker 1: like screaming or drawing attention. It's like, don't draw attention, Like,
Speaker 1: let's kind of keep this on the down low, if
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. But yeah, I know. It's
Speaker 1: always it's always a wonderful thing when people come up
Speaker 1: and recognize you and say hi, as long as they're
Speaker 1: nice about it.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, instructions for your listeners be.
Speaker 1: Nice about it, and they are, Yeah are they are.
Speaker 1: We have the best fans, we really do.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: And we have the best haters too, apparently, right we do.
Speaker 3: At least, you know what, hate on it, but at
Speaker 3: least be funny. That's my only requirement. If you're gonna
Speaker 3: if you're gonna hate, be funny about it. Otherwise it's boring.
Speaker 3: But this was, I mean, this was great.
Speaker 4: What do you have? Do you have a favorite episode?
Speaker 3: Like a favorite either a favorite one to hate or
Speaker 3: one that you hate the least either way.
Speaker 5: I don't know about that, but I think the funniest
Speaker 5: episode to make fun of y like, say by the
Speaker 5: Bell has the Jesse takes right, Yeah.
Speaker 2: That's like. And then I think for full House it's
Speaker 2: the Papoli episode.
Speaker 4: Yeah, who died?
Speaker 2: And then you feel really upset.
Speaker 1: Oh, we haven't all selling it.
Speaker 5: I'll say it here, I said it on the blog.
Speaker 5: If you watch it, you'll you haven't gotten that one yet.
Speaker 2: I think I got that one. See it.
Speaker 5: The course of events, Danny kills PAPOOLI I promise you Papoo.
Speaker 2: Makes a big mass in the kitchen, and.
Speaker 1: Then Jody is here for this who you think he loves?
Speaker 4: Alternate theory.
Speaker 3: So I have every time, I just go, here's what
Speaker 3: I think, and I go off on some wild, weird
Speaker 3: tangent of what's really going on in the Tanner house.
Speaker 2: One.
Speaker 3: We've decided that there is some sort of money laundering
Speaker 3: or insurance fraud going on because Helen the hell Danny
Speaker 3: Tanner affords that house with all of those things and
Speaker 3: and hundreds of thousands of dollars of remodels and you know, renovations.
Speaker 4: How's the affording?
Speaker 3: I mean, wake up sand nice, but come on, it
Speaker 3: ain't paying that kind of money, you know. I don't know,
Speaker 3: lear show, local morning show host, morning shows, I don't know.
Speaker 4: You know what I mean.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's let me tell you it ain't not for
Speaker 3: that house.
Speaker 2: Have that house?
Speaker 5: You know?
Speaker 4: Or like it was also the eighties.
Speaker 3: Case, but they were though because it was the eighties
Speaker 3: and the nineties and you could actually live like that
Speaker 3: on a normal person's salary.
Speaker 4: That was yeah, before everything was bad.
Speaker 3: Uh No, I uh, I think that like the fact
Speaker 3: that you got such a following of people who like
Speaker 3: hate watched or hate read.
Speaker 4: But also loved the show.
Speaker 3: I mean, I think that that actually is a weird
Speaker 3: testament to like how popular and like good it is
Speaker 3: almost because it's so silly and family and cheesy, and
Speaker 3: yet it's still this part of American.
Speaker 4: Like pop culture, you know, Cannon, like.
Speaker 5: It's in the sitcom canon like it or not, you know,
Speaker 5: Like I was actually going to my speaking of nostalgia,
Speaker 5: I was in the airport going to my high school
Speaker 5: reunion when I got messaged by the show.
Speaker 2: The airport, which was like the total But.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean it's also like, you know, I used
Speaker 5: to come home from school and you had twelve channels
Speaker 5: and you're like Full Houses on for an hour.
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna watch it, you know, and.
Speaker 5: Like you guys are in my psyche. It's just there,
Speaker 5: you know, like there's nothing you can do about.
Speaker 4: It's true.
Speaker 1: Do you think you were your reactions to Full House
Speaker 1: was that? Do you think it was more reaction to
Speaker 1: the era that we were in the late eighties early
Speaker 1: nineties the cheese because we weren't the only ridiculous sitcom
Speaker 1: on TV, we were just maybe the most famous one
Speaker 1: at the time.
Speaker 5: I don't know, Well, you guys are definitely like the
Speaker 5: the template. You know, it was like that show worked
Speaker 5: and then there were like six more at the same show,
Speaker 5: all from the same product.
Speaker 1: We were the template.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's sort of like the McDonald's or like the
Speaker 5: Mickey Mouse of those kinds, you know, or like.
Speaker 3: It's like, well, once they find something that hits execs
Speaker 3: or like we should just do only that, right until
Speaker 3: everyone's sick of it and they're like, we never want
Speaker 3: to do that again.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but.
Speaker 5: So yeah, it's kind of like the og I guess
Speaker 5: that type of show. I mean, it's very abrasive. I
Speaker 5: think was part of like everyone on the show. It's
Speaker 5: like it's wholesome, you know, and it's always got a
Speaker 5: moral in gentle music and stuff.
Speaker 2: But it's also like.
Speaker 5: The morals never like hey, just get out of people's face,
Speaker 5: you know, right.
Speaker 4: Like Jesse Stopp being a dick.
Speaker 2: Like, let's play baseball.
Speaker 5: You don't have to have a moment, but don't do
Speaker 5: it in the middle of the baseball game.
Speaker 4: Okay.
Speaker 3: So that's one of the things we talk about all
Speaker 3: the time, is that this is the Tanners world and
Speaker 3: everyone is just living with it or living in it.
Speaker 3: This is this is the family that you hate to
Speaker 3: see coming at the airport, to a sporting event, to
Speaker 3: any sort of gathering.
Speaker 7: You're like, oh right, no matter what it is, it's
Speaker 7: they're gonna make it about them, yes, and it's their
Speaker 7: world and it's.
Speaker 4: Only gonna be about how this affects them.
Speaker 3: And they're gonna hold up your kid's performance, They're gonna
Speaker 3: hold up other people's, you.
Speaker 4: Know, lives because the Tanners have to do what the
Speaker 4: Tanners have to do.
Speaker 5: They don't care performance. Their dad's gonna come on stage, right,
Speaker 5: they're gonna get to go again.
Speaker 3: They get to go again. And also all those other kids,
Speaker 3: their parents aren't even there, right, Well, they wanted to
Speaker 3: be there, but the Tanners took up so much room
Speaker 3: that they had to stand outside and watch.
Speaker 5: Because yeah, character syndrome, like when oh my god, yeah,
Speaker 5: that's full houses fault.
Speaker 4: Totally true, totally true.
Speaker 1: Did you ever reach a point like, so you did
Speaker 1: this blog for four years? Did you ever get to
Speaker 1: a point where like what did I start?
Speaker 2: Like?
Speaker 1: Why did you ever regret starting this blog? How do
Speaker 1: you want to finish the hundred ninety two episodes?
Speaker 5: I don't know I finished it like ten years ago
Speaker 5: or something, so I don't know, you know. I mean
Speaker 5: I think I got about halfway when it blew up
Speaker 5: and I was like, well, now I'm in it, And
Speaker 5: I don't know. I think too it's like you should
Speaker 5: have better routines, like exercise or something.
Speaker 2: But it's just like, in hindsight, I don't understand how
Speaker 2: I ever did that or had time.
Speaker 4: Yeah, right when I was young and energetic, Yeah.
Speaker 5: I didn't have as much responsibility. But I mean, I
Speaker 5: honestly don't remember. I feel but I think like waking
Speaker 5: up on Friday morning and having like fifty comments by
Speaker 5: the time you wake up and reading through them and stuff,
Speaker 5: there was something you know about that I built up
Speaker 5: an audience. There's no way I would have finished it well.
Speaker 3: And it's that was like the early days of the internet,
Speaker 3: when it was fun and it was you know, and
Speaker 3: you kind of did bond with like your internet friends
Speaker 3: and your like little groups and stuff.
Speaker 4: It was that was a blog.
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't even know if you could do
Speaker 2: a blog anymore.
Speaker 6: I don't know.
Speaker 1: I have to be substacks or newsletters still, right, I
Speaker 1: wish I.
Speaker 5: Had done it as a substack because people would have
Speaker 5: to pay.
Speaker 1: Tarn it too late.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was. The timing was uniquely bad.
Speaker 5: I mean, even as like a professional artist and stuff
Speaker 5: like the marketing piece is not my strong suit, you know,
Speaker 5: Like I think there was.
Speaker 2: A way to monetize it, but it was for fun.
Speaker 2: It's good to just do things for fun, I think.
Speaker 3: Yeah, really, yeah, sometimes it is nice to just do
Speaker 3: something for fun and not be like I need to
Speaker 3: make money.
Speaker 6: Carrie Bradshaw ended up on her own. But you don't
Speaker 6: have to not if you listen to I Do Part two.
Speaker 6: Listen to I Do Part two on America's number one
Speaker 6: podcast network, iHeart Follow I Do Part two, and start
Speaker 6: listening on the free iHeartRadio app today.
Speaker 1: Now we heard you have kids? Oh yeah, what are
Speaker 1: their ages? And more importantly, did you let them watch
Speaker 1: Full House?
Speaker 2: They are five and one.
Speaker 1: Oh come on, that's our demographic.
Speaker 4: You know.
Speaker 2: I'm in the thick of it to get all the jokes.
Speaker 5: My wife is not a big media person, Like, I
Speaker 5: don't think she knows what this is or why it's funny.
Speaker 2: Actually, because I still have some.
Speaker 5: People like I'll do an artist talk sometimes and like
Speaker 5: a woman will show up and my wife will because
Speaker 5: this one of your full house readers, you know, like
Speaker 5: I have a small amount of super fans.
Speaker 2: You show up to stuff.
Speaker 5: But amazing, So our kids allowed to watch a movie
Speaker 5: like twice a month or something. I don't think she's
Speaker 5: take any actual TV. Maybe some Sesame Street.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're pretty little, yeah the one yeah, one year
Speaker 3: old pretty little Sesame Street is right, is amazing.
Speaker 2: The one year old's not allowed to look at I
Speaker 2: think it's like.
Speaker 5: No screens or something because it's sustained attention, you know, like,
Speaker 5: but we try to get her to read books.
Speaker 2: You know, we read books to her. Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm a big book too. I don't I don't
Speaker 4: watch a lot of TV, but I read a lot.
Speaker 4: Good for you, Yeah, yeah, I just I'm most of
Speaker 4: the time.
Speaker 3: It's just because I don't want to wait for video
Speaker 3: and to wait for someone to talk. I can read
Speaker 3: faster than that. So I'm like, this is get to
Speaker 3: the point. But I uh fully approve of your no
Speaker 3: screen time. They might be the only two children in
Speaker 3: the world that will be normal in ten.
Speaker 4: Years, so well give it time.
Speaker 1: I mean, when the five year old becomes a seven, eight,
Speaker 1: nine year old, I think you should let him or
Speaker 1: her watchful House. I think it's it's a write a
Speaker 1: passage as a.
Speaker 4: Child, you know, put it in the approved box. It's
Speaker 4: all we're saying.
Speaker 3: Yeah, like I hate watched it once, I can't hate
Speaker 3: watch it again, and then she'll start her own blog.
Speaker 5: That's the other thing is I think maybe in terms
Speaker 5: of motivation, it's like I said, you would come home
Speaker 5: from school and it would just be on and I
Speaker 5: would always watch it as a kid, and I always
Speaker 5: was like angry at it, you know, and it was
Speaker 5: a little bit like, you know, like your mom catches
Speaker 5: you's smoking a cigarette when you're twelve and she makes
Speaker 5: you smoke a.
Speaker 2: Carton of cigarettes.
Speaker 5: Like I haven't watched full House since I wrote that
Speaker 5: last review, Like I.
Speaker 2: Got had I flushed it out?
Speaker 4: Yeah you watched it? Yeah, I mean that probably happened.
Speaker 4: After we're done with this show. I'll be like, well
Speaker 4: that was once one and done one?
Speaker 1: And did you watch Solar House? When we did Fuller?
Speaker 2: I watched the first season okay, and I wrote about it,
Speaker 2: and that was one where I.
Speaker 4: Was did you did you do a redux of the
Speaker 4: of the review? I started too, And.
Speaker 5: That was one where there were some pop culture blogs
Speaker 5: that I actually could do it for but I didn't know,
Speaker 5: like I like passed up a really good one for
Speaker 5: a not very good one. And then it was like
Speaker 5: had an editor and it was like I don't want to.
Speaker 5: I'd rather do this for free than for fifty bucks, you.
Speaker 4: Know, right right my blog.
Speaker 5: And then it was I don't know, it was like
Speaker 5: I didn't watch this when I was ten.
Speaker 2: I don't know. It wasn't the same, right kind of thing.
Speaker 5: Of like, oh, we all remember this and we can
Speaker 5: point it out and there's a lot of hindsight to
Speaker 5: Full House, you know, like, oh we know better now
Speaker 5: than so it just wasn't the same thing. So I
Speaker 5: only did the first season and I kind of thought
Speaker 5: even that was it was a stretch.
Speaker 2: But you two were amazing, of course.
Speaker 4: Anymore, no good answer.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm just saying, if you want to, if you
Speaker 1: want to do the other four seasons, you know, monetize
Speaker 1: that blog.
Speaker 4: I'd read it, read it, I would read it.
Speaker 5: Yes, I still kind of want to do Family Matters.
Speaker 5: I've thought of doing it as like a sub stack
Speaker 5: or something, and then.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you should, you should. I think it's people are
Speaker 4: people love it.
Speaker 3: People love it and they and you know, hate watching
Speaker 3: has never been more popular.
Speaker 1: So you can have a lineup like this could be
Speaker 1: a new career frame. Just do all of t G
Speaker 1: I s right, be busy for the next ten years.
Speaker 5: I mean, I gotta pay a mortgage and stuff. So
Speaker 5: definitely have to bring something.
Speaker 1: Nize, sponsor or something. Yeah, definitely. That's so funny.
Speaker 3: Well, this was so much fun to have you on
Speaker 3: the show like this has been. This is really great.
Speaker 3: And I hope you know that. We think you're really funny.
Speaker 3: We love what you wrote. Uh, and we totally agree
Speaker 3: that this show is ridiculous and uh and it's fun
Speaker 3: to make fun of but it's got a weird place

Speaker 4: Oh yeah, is that.
Speaker 1: Why you chose full House? Like, is there any relation here?
Speaker 5: You know? It's funny because I did the whole thing
Speaker 5: anonymously and then the very last entry, I was like,
Speaker 5: I'll just tell people who I am if they want to,
Speaker 5: and a lot of people are like what And I
Speaker 5: didn't think of it. I have a hyphene last name
Speaker 5: because my mom's a feminist.
Speaker 2: But no, I mean I think it was annoying when
Speaker 2: I was a kid.
Speaker 4: Family.
Speaker 5: Yeah, so I think some of the deep seated resentment probably.
Speaker 1: How we got to the bottom of it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I believe.

Speaker 8: were because I love Alf Freaking mill Mac taking an
