Speaker 1: We are back with part two of our interview with
Speaker 1: Scott Weininger. We are so grateful he made the time
Speaker 1: to chat with us about our favorite memories of being
Speaker 1: teenagers on the set of Full House. Let's not wait
Speaker 1: any longer. Here is part two of Scott.
Speaker 2: You're So Smart? Scott. I brag about you and Abe
Speaker 2: all the time.
Speaker 3: Maybe you guys are both so smart. I don't know
Speaker 3: why this where this guy out that I'm so smart?
Speaker 3: And I don't know where that came from, because you read.
Speaker 2: Novels and you yeah, you're like a French miner and
Speaker 2: you'd speak multiple languages and you were like doing calculus
Speaker 2: when you were on the show. You had like a
Speaker 2: special tutor come in because all the teachers were like,
Speaker 2: we're not smart enough for you, Like you know, I mean,
Speaker 2: come on, But.
Speaker 3: Like, by the way, I don't remember any of that.
Speaker 3: I don't remember any of that matter.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 3: My son is like in algebra and sometimes he'll be like, dude,
Speaker 3: can you help me out with this? And I look
Speaker 3: at it like Chinese, I have no idea I can.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, yeah you yeah, I remember you were
Speaker 2: in like calculus and you I'm so impressed. But It
Speaker 2: was always funny because you two were so smart and
Speaker 2: played the biggest idiots.
Speaker 3: You know, we played dopes.
Speaker 1: It's yeah, we played do really do you remember helping
Speaker 1: me study for the SATs and like recommending your tutor
Speaker 1: because I was terrified and you did so well on
Speaker 1: the SATs.
Speaker 4: I don't remember your score, but it was near perfect,
Speaker 4: you know what.
Speaker 3: I did pretty well and then and but it was hard,
Speaker 3: like that was another thing where I would get nervous,
Speaker 3: like and it takes big situation, you know, you feel
Speaker 3: like if I screw this up, then you know, like
Speaker 3: all my hopes and dreams would be dashed or whatever.
Speaker 3: It's so it's so silly, I mean, but.
Speaker 5: It's important to synonyms.
Speaker 3: Like I remember, I would just like someone would say
Speaker 3: a word and I would I would just like say
Speaker 3: ten synonyms for it immediately, just because my brain got
Speaker 3: like trained for that, you know, mm hmm. It's funny.
Speaker 3: I definitely feel even now we're old people. I mean,
Speaker 3: you wouldn't know if I'm looking at you two, but
Speaker 3: you know, look at the center square here, oh that
Speaker 3: because it's only I'm going.
Speaker 5: No, you're pretty good.
Speaker 4: You're part of the full house family.
Speaker 3: You don't. I think pretty good, that's true. But I
Speaker 3: definitely have this mentality, like student mentality, like I'm always
Speaker 3: trying to learn stuff all the time.
Speaker 1: Yea.
Speaker 3: So like right now I'm studying Italian, which is really
Speaker 3: fun because we went to Italy. My family went on
Speaker 3: a trip to Italy and it was.
Speaker 2: So you probably went there and you're like, now I
Speaker 2: need to know all of the town. Yes, exactly, And
Speaker 2: now Scott's like, I need to next.
Speaker 3: Time I go. I want to be able to like
Speaker 3: do this and talk Italian to people. So but I
Speaker 3: always feel like.
Speaker 2: Imber, you were learning trying to learn Japanese before we went.
Speaker 3: I know, I did, I learned?
Speaker 2: I do. I remember you walking around zet with your
Speaker 2: like due lingo and like try and like I learned something.
Speaker 3: It was very helpful. It was it came in.
Speaker 2: Handy, it did.
Speaker 4: Can we talk about that in Japan? Jody?
Speaker 1: Were you with us when Scott led us on a
Speaker 1: on a wild chase to find a certain sushi restaurant
Speaker 1: at that I.
Speaker 2: Did not go because it was early in the morning,
Speaker 2: and so I was like, I'm going for sushi at
Speaker 2: seven am, and I was like, I am not.
Speaker 3: I had sushi for breakfast a couple of times. I
Speaker 3: went back to that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but yeah, yeah, you went there like twice and
Speaker 2: it burned down. Remember that was another.
Speaker 3: Place, But yeah, that was crazy that it burned down.
Speaker 3: We went by this.
Speaker 2: You was like, Ben, There're like I was there yesterday.
Speaker 3: That was crazy.
Speaker 2: Wow, Scott, you were there yesterday. Something burns down. You
Speaker 2: write an episode, the show gets canceled. I'm just saying
Speaker 2: it's not the harbinger of bad.
Speaker 1: But I just I remember you leading us on several
Speaker 1: like subways or trains and like taxis, Like you're like,
Speaker 1: I swear I'm gonna friend fund it.
Speaker 3: It was like the wall with just like ten seats
Speaker 3: at the bar, and we found it and and with
Speaker 3: a lot of like, uh challenges along the way. Remember
Speaker 3: I lost my phone. Remember I stopped at my shoes
Speaker 3: and walked away and my phone was still there. But
Speaker 3: it's Japan, yes, like maybe anywhere else in the world
Speaker 3: the phone would have been gone in about two seconds
Speaker 3: it was. We came back and there were like people
Speaker 3: standing around, looking.
Speaker 2: At standing and looking right, right, what do we do?
Speaker 3: They're so amazing and polite. That experience was so incredible,
Speaker 3: you know, and it's not nice.
Speaker 2: We had the best time.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that was the best.
Speaker 2: That was Remember the day that we went and we
Speaker 2: had that guy the guide and like the bus and
Speaker 2: we went to those We went to like the old
Speaker 2: part of Japan, and we went to the gardens and
Speaker 2: we went, oh my gosh, where else did we go?
Speaker 3: We went all like it was amazing. We went to
Speaker 3: that place that had the octopus balls with the weird
Speaker 3: stuff on top. That was like moving. Remember we ended
Speaker 3: up at like this cool neighborhood with like a beer
Speaker 3: haul and well.
Speaker 2: That's right if that was like an old the old
Speaker 2: part of Tokyo, that that is still out there, a
Speaker 2: little bit of a out there, but yeah, it washood.
Speaker 3: We never would have found on our own without this.
Speaker 2: Guide, right, well it was. It was much of the
Speaker 2: what Tokyo originally looked like, but a lot of that
Speaker 2: didn't survive, you know, those forties. So yeah, but you
Speaker 2: but it still is out there. And I do remember
Speaker 2: it was August and they don't love air conditioning and
Speaker 2: the old buildings did not have any and we were
Speaker 2: all like.
Speaker 3: I have pictures of us looking at those.
Speaker 2: Sweaty, sweating, so sweaty.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but it was so I loved it so much
Speaker 3: that I went back again. I brought my wife and
Speaker 3: my son. We went back and had another We had
Speaker 3: another amazing time. We had these friends who came and
Speaker 3: met us there. It was just it's just that I
Speaker 3: can't wait to go back again. It was amazing. That
Speaker 3: was my last big, really big, awesome trip before the pandemic,
Speaker 3: and it like, yeah, really scratched an itch that would
Speaker 3: have gotten out of control during the pandemic had I
Speaker 3: not done that trip, you know. And then yeah, we
Speaker 3: didn't really get to go anywhere special, you know, like
Speaker 3: on a big trip until last Christmas. We went to
Speaker 3: we did the Italy trip. I too, and you guys know,
Speaker 3: I'm up test with Paris. So we went to Paris
Speaker 3: first because my son had never been to Paris, and
Speaker 3: we had a great few days. But then Italy blew
Speaker 3: his mind. He preferred Italy.
Speaker 2: And really, what made you fall in love with Paris?
Speaker 2: I mean other than the fact that you, you know,
Speaker 2: speak the language, so I don't know, it was nicer
Speaker 2: to you there.
Speaker 3: I didn't want to go. I had no interest. I
Speaker 3: was not curious about Paris or France.
Speaker 2: I would wasn't it Bob that told you to go
Speaker 2: to Paris.
Speaker 3: No Bob met me there one time, you know what
Speaker 3: it was. It was my girlfriend at the time, Kelly,
Speaker 3: who he was studying French, and so she and so
Speaker 3: we were going to go on a trip at spring
Speaker 3: break time. I guess it was like April, and I
Speaker 3: was thinking like somewhere beachy, like Mexico or something, you
Speaker 3: know what I mean. But she'd been studying French, so
Speaker 3: she had this like she was like anxious to go
Speaker 3: to Paris. And I was like, all right, I'm not
Speaker 3: going to complain about it. And we went and I honestly,
Speaker 3: you know, I think she loved it, but I got
Speaker 3: hit by the lightning bolt way harder than her, you
Speaker 3: know what I mean. Like I was just like from
Speaker 3: the beginning. I remember that first day just walking around
Speaker 3: like feeling this weird connection to it, like I'm going
Speaker 3: to live here someday and I'm going to learn how
Speaker 3: to speak French and like I'm on the first day,
Speaker 3: you know, And I did it. I you know, I
Speaker 3: went when I started college, I took French like five
Speaker 3: days a week for a long time, and I didn't
Speaker 3: know college. So I signed up for French class at
Speaker 3: nine am, five days a week, which was so stupid
Speaker 3: because what college freshman wants to be awake at nine
Speaker 3: am every day? But but and then I did. Then
Speaker 3: my senior year I did. I lived there for six
Speaker 3: months and I worked on my thesis and I was
Speaker 3: just like obsessed with it. And then you know the
Speaker 3: coolest thing. Actually this happened during Fuller House. You know,
Speaker 3: I always wanted to do a show in Paris, Like
Speaker 3: I had this idea for a rom com and I
Speaker 3: went to pitch it to Netflix during one of our hiatuses.
Speaker 3: I guess I bumped. It was like I was at
Speaker 3: some Netflix ammy party and I ran into this executive
Speaker 3: who I had known from ABC, who now works in
Speaker 3: their foreign language stuff, and I said, I have a show,
Speaker 3: and I think we should do it in French because
Speaker 3: nobody's going to make it in English, so let's do it.
Speaker 3: And she's like, coming, come pitch it. And so a
Speaker 3: month later I was in her office pitching it and
Speaker 3: I start with the little autobiographical feel about like my obsession,
Speaker 3: the thing I just told you guys about my how
Speaker 3: I and I said, in my dream really is to
Speaker 3: work on a to do a rom com in Paris,
Speaker 3: and she goes, stop right there, because I definitely want
Speaker 3: to hear your pitch. But we have a rom com
Speaker 3: that we're trying to get off the ground, and it's
Speaker 3: you know, like a lot of new shows they were
Speaker 3: there were some issues with it. It was just getting it,
Speaker 3: you know, getting it in.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 3: It was in prep and like they had a start date.
Speaker 3: They were pushing it back because they weren't really sure,
Speaker 3: and they said, would you maybe be interested in going
Speaker 3: to Paris and sort of you know, making sure it
Speaker 3: stays on track or getting it back on track, And
Speaker 3: I was like, are you kidding? And so thank god
Speaker 3: it has to be. It was in between Fuller House seasons.
Speaker 3: So a month later I was in Paris working on
Speaker 3: this show and that was really cool. We had a
Speaker 3: writer's room with a view of the Eiffel Tower and.
Speaker 4: Oh wow, And I kept going, wait, which show was this?
Speaker 3: It was this show? You know, it's a Netflix show.
Speaker 3: It's still on Netflix the net. The English title I
Speaker 3: don't love. They called it the Hookup Plan, but a
Speaker 3: weird name in French that doesn't translate. It's like an expression,
Speaker 3: you know what I mean.
Speaker 4: It's like right, you have to say it. I want
Speaker 4: to hear you speak French.
Speaker 3: Well there's the French. Well, there's a French expression that's
Speaker 3: probably not appropriate in English. But it's called a plan
Speaker 3: coute like a plan Q. And it means like because
Speaker 3: the word Q, the letter Q in French, if you
Speaker 3: say it sounds like ass in French.
Speaker 2: Okay, so it means like.
Speaker 3: So a plan Q means like a hooking up like
Speaker 3: it means like got it, friends with that. It basically
Speaker 3: means friends, yeah, like friends with benefits or whatever want
Speaker 3: and so. But then so in French they called it
Speaker 3: a They called the show plum like between like a
Speaker 3: part plan Like it's like a play on the expression.
Speaker 3: So there's it's like a it's like a play on words,
Speaker 3: on a play on words. So it's like there's no
Speaker 3: way to translate it.
Speaker 2: There's no way to make it.
Speaker 3: So they just called it. They called it the hook
Speaker 3: Cup Plan in English. But it's a really sweet show.
Speaker 3: It's not appropriate for youngsters. It's very mature content.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 3: It's like it's like about people in their twenties and thirties,
Speaker 3: like dating and stuff, so it's not like.
Speaker 2: Coming up with hookup plans exactly.
Speaker 3: It's not like inappropriate for grown ups. But I'm just
Speaker 3: saying it because I know a lot of people watch
Speaker 3: it listening to this podcast might want to, might think
Speaker 3: it's like full House, which right.
Speaker 2: Like I'm going to go right, and then they'll be
Speaker 2: like Scott Weiner told me that I should go watch
Speaker 2: the show, and then I'm going to get a lot
Speaker 2: of a lot of emails. Yeah, exactly problematic.
Speaker 3: It's a wonderful show and I'm very proud of it, but.
Speaker 2: It's not you know, but maybe not something you'd watch
Speaker 2: with your kids like you would Fuller exactly. It's intended
Speaker 2: for or Laddin right or Loud? Yes, What was it
Speaker 2: like coming back as Steve during Fuller House and like
Speaker 2: finally winding up the like the dude, it was crazy?
Speaker 4: Were you nervous to come back and do it?
Speaker 3: I didn't plan on ever doing it? Well, first of all,
Speaker 3: who would have thought? You know, now of days, there's
Speaker 3: so many successful or unsuccessful there are so many attempts
Speaker 3: at doing these, like not spin offs like boots of
Speaker 3: old shows. Some of them have done really well, some
Speaker 3: of them have not. But like Fuller, full House, Fuller
Speaker 3: House was like kind of the first one that really
Speaker 3: hit it big, and so I didn't have I don't
Speaker 3: know about you guys, but I didn't. My expectation was
Speaker 3: very like I was sort of confused because I hadn't
Speaker 3: seen a sitcom on Netflix before. Like it was just
Speaker 3: the fact that we were doing it again, but fort
Speaker 3: I didn't understand what it was like. And they just
Speaker 3: called me and asked me to do one episode, like
Speaker 3: just the table read for the pilot, and and they
Speaker 3: had all this dialogue about my wife and kids. Remember
Speaker 3: there was a party at the house.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, they were in the house.
Speaker 3: And Steve shows up. It was supposed to be like
Speaker 3: a like the Legacy cast was going to show up,
Speaker 3: and that was they would you would never hear it
Speaker 3: right again. And but then after that first table read,
Speaker 3: like I said, there were no stakes because I thought
Speaker 3: the dialogue was all about my wife and kids. I
Speaker 3: didn't think there was anything. So I had like a
Speaker 3: really good table read. I wasn't nervous. I was didn't
Speaker 3: feel like an audition. And I got an email from
Speaker 3: Jeff Franklin that night saying, hey, man, you were really
Speaker 3: funny at the table read. I think I'm gonna get
Speaker 3: rid of that dialogue about your wife and kids, and
Speaker 3: maybe like in the future, you could come back and
Speaker 3: try to date DJ. And I was like, Okay, I
Speaker 3: didn't think it would ever really happen, but I was like,
Speaker 3: of course, I'm open to that. And then the show
Speaker 3: gets you know, I guess it was already picked up
Speaker 3: a series. It was picked up for whatever thirteen episodes already,
Speaker 3: and so then they would keep they would reach out
Speaker 3: to be like, is he available for another episode?
Speaker 1: You know?
Speaker 3: And I was like, and it was a really weird
Speaker 3: thing because if I had been writing for any other
Speaker 3: show but the one I was writing for, I probably
Speaker 3: wouldn't have been able to do it, because you can't
Speaker 3: just like disappear for days at a time. I was
Speaker 3: working on the show that was shooting in England and
Speaker 3: so and it was a musical and we had written
Speaker 3: all the episodes. It was Galivant season two, okay, And
Speaker 3: so they were in England shooting the show in Bristol,
Speaker 3: and so the writers would come to work every day
Speaker 3: without much to do. Because sometimes if you're doing shooting
Speaker 3: a show and like a scene isn't working, your jokes
Speaker 3: aren't working, they'll call the writer's room and say this
Speaker 3: isn't working. But they were nine hours ahead of us
Speaker 3: or whatever. Anyway, like they couldn't right, there was we
Speaker 3: really didn't have a lot. I could sort of slip
Speaker 3: out and do a fuller House episode and nobody would
Speaker 3: really know that I was gone, right, And finally, you know,
Speaker 3: there was another one, and then another one, and by
Speaker 3: the end of that first season, I was in more
Speaker 3: than like half the episodes, and they had written the
Speaker 3: whole love triangle with Steve and DJ and Matt and
Speaker 3: like then at the end of that season, Jeff's like, well,
Speaker 3: now we've sort of painted ourselves into a corner because
Speaker 3: like I in the show, so we need to make
Speaker 3: a deal for you to be like a regular. And
Speaker 3: I was like, well, I don't think I could just
Speaker 3: quit because at the time I was doing Galivan and
Speaker 3: then the Muppets at the same time, and then, as
Speaker 3: luck would have it, they both got canceled, and so
Speaker 3: but I, you know, I so I made a deal
Speaker 3: to be like a regular on the show, and you know,
Speaker 3: that's how I ended up. But I loved it. I mean,
Speaker 3: I don't know about you, guys. I mean I do
Speaker 3: know about you guys, I know you loved, Like we
Speaker 3: had the best time. It was awesome.
Speaker 4: It was so fun.
Speaker 5: It was so it was I had a lot.
Speaker 3: Of anxiety about like skipping out on my day job
Speaker 3: and like would there would I ever get to work
Speaker 3: in the Like I had worked so hard to establish
Speaker 3: myself in TV writing, and I thought if I left
Speaker 3: or whatever, then I would be like the game's musical
Speaker 3: childres to continue without me and I wouldn't be able
Speaker 3: to get a seat ever again or whatever. But thank god,
Speaker 3: it didn't work out that way. But but it was amazing.
Speaker 3: We had so much fun. I wish it went for
Speaker 3: ten seasons.
Speaker 4: I know, it really so hard. Every day, Yeah, every day.
Speaker 3: Every day, like we really like it was exactly like
Speaker 3: the old days, except we were all grown ups.
Speaker 2: It was really right, except we didn't have to study
Speaker 2: for SATs and go do exactly work. And yeah, it
Speaker 2: was it was actually more fun. People ask about all
Speaker 2: the time, like, yeah, did you like Fuller? Fuller?
Speaker 3: Seeing it through the eyes of our kids was really fun,
Speaker 3: Like the kid.
Speaker 4: Yeah, what did Misha think? What you would think about
Speaker 4: the right.
Speaker 3: Age to be totally blown away by the whole thing, you.
Speaker 2: Know, really and how old is we shout out.
Speaker 3: Now he's fourteen, which is crazy, but that's right, Yeah,
Speaker 3: he's what would how when did we start it? Like,
Speaker 3: how old would he have been? I guess was it
Speaker 3: like nine years ago already disappointed?
Speaker 4: Or it was twenty fifteen?
Speaker 3: Oh, say it'll be nine years since that first tape?
Speaker 4: Yeah wow?
Speaker 1: Yeah, so yeah, he was ideal age for the our viewership.
Speaker 3: Yeah really, yeah, it's true. But he loved coming to
Speaker 3: the tapings and his friends were obsessed with the show
Speaker 3: and they would all come to the tape, you know
Speaker 3: what I mean. Yes, we had such a good time.
Speaker 3: It was really fun.
Speaker 1: And did he get a kick out of seeing you
Speaker 1: on TV? Or did he make fun of you? Because
Speaker 1: my kids would always make fun of me?
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I guess. I mean it's crazy, but
Speaker 3: he would have been five years old when we started,
Speaker 3: so for him everything for kids that age, nothing's weird,
Speaker 3: you know what I mean. He's just like, I guess
Speaker 3: this is what my dad doesn't know, like I you know, right,
Speaker 3: And but he he loved it. He was exactly the
Speaker 3: right age where like I would take him as my
Speaker 3: date to the Kid's Choice Awards, you know, and that
Speaker 3: was awesome, but he you know, he got a big
Speaker 3: kick out of it. It was really really fun. It
Speaker 3: was it was cool. And it's not like being an
Speaker 3: actor on a show where you shoot it out of
Speaker 3: town or the hours are really bad, right, well, it's
Speaker 3: around because our hours were so amazing, you know.
Speaker 2: Sitcom sitcom life is the it is the thing that
Speaker 2: most people dream of in this business, is sitcom life
Speaker 2: because you're usually on a four day schedule once you
Speaker 2: kind of get in the swing of things, usually a
Speaker 2: four day schedule, nothing too crazy late, especially if you're
Speaker 2: on a show with the kids animals. Yeah, you're not
Speaker 2: shooting late.
Speaker 3: It's ended always pretty early, you know.
Speaker 2: And yeah, we would be done by like nine thirty. Yeah,
Speaker 2: that was and that would be like a late that
Speaker 2: was the later one exactly. Yeah.
Speaker 3: And it was also unusual because a lot of times
Speaker 3: when you're doing a new show, it's like it takes
Speaker 3: a while to find an audience. But we had this
Speaker 3: built in super fan right base that but people would
Speaker 3: come to the rights and just freak the heck out,
Speaker 3: you know.
Speaker 2: And we also knew each other so well. It was
Speaker 2: like there was no getting it wasn't you know, warming
Speaker 2: up to other people or how you know, new character
Speaker 2: was like, oh, we just jumping back into this into
Speaker 2: this person in this routine rhythm.
Speaker 3: It was really weird. People asked me like was they
Speaker 3: People asked me like, is it weird? And I remember
Speaker 3: the first day being sort of weird on the set,
Speaker 3: like not weird, just like looking around like the set
Speaker 3: was back up. It was like being back in like
Speaker 3: childhood home or something, and everything's.
Speaker 5: The way yeah, oh yeah.
Speaker 3: But then the weirder part was by the second day,
Speaker 3: it was just like we had never stopped doing the show.
Speaker 3: It was just like okay, right, you know, you want
Speaker 3: to grab a coffee. You know. It's like Randi and
Speaker 3: I were.
Speaker 2: And we were on the same stage that we had
Speaker 2: been on, in the same you know, we've talked about
Speaker 2: it before, with the same dressing rooms and everything. So
Speaker 2: it really was like this weird fast forward button that
Speaker 2: got hit where it was like that it was so
Speaker 2: bizarre in like a time war. We've just been here
Speaker 2: the whole time.
Speaker 3: It was especially being in the same sound stage on
Speaker 3: the same lot. It was like so surreal.
Speaker 4: I mean, we didn't have hair and makeup crafty huh yeah.
Speaker 3: Going ontocraft service. It was so bizarre. It really was
Speaker 3: like all of the years in between sort of you
Speaker 3: forgot about them a little bit, Like it didn't feel
Speaker 3: like we've continuously been doing the show. But it was
Speaker 3: so fun. I mean, it was just such a good experience,
Speaker 3: like you know, and and for me, it was like
Speaker 3: a dream come true because I continue to write. Like
Speaker 3: they asked me if I had any weird like when
Speaker 3: I took the jobs, Like the only thing I asked
Speaker 3: was like I needed a desk in my in my
Speaker 3: dressing room, so that I cause I was still like
Speaker 3: pitching shows and writing shows, and so I got into
Speaker 3: like a routine where like I would develop an idea
Speaker 3: for a pilot or something and work on the pitch
Speaker 3: during the season, and then we would finish at the
Speaker 3: end of the summer, like right around Labor Day, and
Speaker 3: then so I would take the pitch out after Labor Day.
Speaker 3: And then it got you know, I was very lucky.
Speaker 3: I would sell the show and then spend the off
Speaker 3: season writing a pilot, you know what I mean, or
Speaker 3: working on a pilot. Like most pilots, they wouldn't get
Speaker 3: picked out. I wouldn't have to worry and then I'd
Speaker 3: go back to work on at Fuller House. It was
Speaker 3: a very cool it was a great It's just a
Speaker 3: great however many years we did it. It was awesome. Yeah,
Speaker 3: you guys, I mean we all had cool experiences that
Speaker 3: we never had got to have. I mean like Andrea
Speaker 3: wrote an episode and you directed more than yeah, right,
Speaker 3: like multiple episodes.
Speaker 2: No, I directed one episode, I directed the third from
Speaker 2: the end. Candice directed a couple episodes. But yeah, we
Speaker 2: all got to do stuff that we sort of never
Speaker 2: had before. It was you know, again, everyone was so
Speaker 2: supportive of like our education and our growth and doing
Speaker 2: the next thing, just kind of like they were when
Speaker 2: we were kids. Like that was always a big part
Speaker 2: of it. It meant it meant a lot. It meant
Speaker 2: a lot that they let us all kind of do that.
Speaker 3: It was a good group. It was really.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a really we had the best time.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Where where do you think STJ will be in ten years?
Speaker 2: I guess we could say ten years from the end
Speaker 2: of the show or ten years from now, which would
Speaker 2: make it like, yeah.
Speaker 3: Because it's our now, what is it then four years
Speaker 3: already since we finished?
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you know.
Speaker 3: It's funny. It doesn't feel it feels weird because in
Speaker 3: some ways it feels like we just finished, and in
Speaker 3: some ways it feels like twenty years ago because the
Speaker 3: pandemic came, and there's like that.
Speaker 2: Well right, there's no time anymore.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's true. Yeah, but where would Stephen dj En?
Speaker 3: I feel like they would still be happily married. I
Speaker 3: feel like, uh huh, I don't know what they have
Speaker 3: had more kids, I don't think so if she has
Speaker 3: a house full of kids, I don't think that they
Speaker 3: I don't I think Steve maybe. I think Steve would
Speaker 3: have really like thrown himself wholeheartedly into helping raise her kids.
Speaker 3: DJ's kids, Like you know, I mean, think of how
Speaker 3: was how old was the youngest kid, How old was
Speaker 3: the youngest one on the show was when we show
Speaker 3: up the baby?
Speaker 2: They were what three? Four?
Speaker 3: Oh god, I thought there were babies.
Speaker 5: It wasn't like Max like kids.
Speaker 3: Yea, they had a long time before they would be
Speaker 3: empty nesters. I was like, I don't think Steve and
Speaker 3: dall advanting all over the world yet they'd be raising
Speaker 3: kids for a long time. But he was such a
Speaker 3: sweet guy. He was thrilled to do it. He liked
Speaker 3: being a father figure to the kids or whatever. Yeah,
Speaker 3: he was, and it took a while.
Speaker 2: You're just you're just so cute. You're just you're just
Speaker 2: You're still You're still Steve's I.
Speaker 3: Want to do the screen and squeeze both of your cheeks.
Speaker 3: By the way, you know what I do you notice
Speaker 3: this over my shoulder? Do you recognize this little piece
Speaker 3: of contraband that I stole from the c.
Speaker 2: I can't see what it is.
Speaker 4: It's nautical, it's a boat.
Speaker 3: It's a sailboat from Joey's little alcove.
Speaker 2: Oh, yes, still the sailboat.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I got Well, you know it's that's what you
Speaker 3: took to have the sailboat. You know. Do you remember
Speaker 3: the last the night on set our final taping, and it.
Speaker 2: Was yeah, it was it was like madness and people
Speaker 2: were I was we were picking the sec yeah, like
Speaker 2: not even just gassed. Like everyone was like, I'm taking
Speaker 2: this and.
Speaker 3: Joked around about stealing the couch and I was like, haha,
Speaker 3: you can't steal a couch. And then I think Stamos
Speaker 3: really did steal the couch.
Speaker 2: I think he has the he has the couch. I
Speaker 2: don't know that he stole it. I tried to steal
Speaker 2: the pa, the sea pap.
Speaker 3: The best part is I knew exactly what I wanted
Speaker 3: and I ran to Well, it wasn't that I ran
Speaker 3: to the kitchen to get it. I wanted the cookie
Speaker 3: jar from the kitchen the house and I'm going to
Speaker 3: reach for it, and I know, I see Michael pick
Speaker 3: it up and he's like, oh, did you want that?
Speaker 3: And I was like, no, it's cool. He was very sweet.
Speaker 3: He was getting it for you, and but he saw
Speaker 3: this so for me, I had to sort of look
Speaker 3: on my face and he was like, I was like, no,
Speaker 3: you know, I knew it was for you. I was like, no, no,
Speaker 3: it's all good. And so that but that was my
Speaker 3: plan was to steal that to borrow for until we
Speaker 3: do fullest house, to borrow that cookie jar. And but
Speaker 3: because I have a Genie, cookie jar are from from Aladdin,
Speaker 3: and I thought they were together. But then so I
Speaker 3: was like, can I take? And I was wandering around
Speaker 3: the set and then I saw the.
Speaker 6: Tail can I everybody wanted a souvenir from this amazing experience,
Speaker 6: you know, And so I went and I got the sailboat,
Speaker 6: which I thought was really super cool.
Speaker 3: But I remember leaving the studio that night with all
Speaker 3: the emotions of the series being over, and everybody was crying.
Speaker 3: It was very emotional. The other feeling I had was
Speaker 3: They're going to catch me. They're going to find that
Speaker 3: sailboat in my trunk, and I'm going to go right
Speaker 3: to Warner Brothers jail. I was just like, I was
Speaker 3: so scared. I mean, it's so pathetic.
Speaker 2: Nobody's going they caught me with the sea pappy head.
Speaker 2: I had to go get it out of my trunk.
Speaker 3: Are you kidding?
Speaker 2: They were like, you can't just take it, well, not
Speaker 2: the whole sea pappy just you know, it was a
Speaker 2: little obvious when it was headless.
Speaker 3: So they were like, who's you stole it?
Speaker 2: I did because they were like who took the thing?
Speaker 2: It was a big thing. And and and security and
Speaker 2: somebody else came over and they're like, uh, they're looking
Speaker 2: for the sea pappy head. It's a bit of a thing.
Speaker 2: And I was like, oh my god, Okay, so I
Speaker 2: went and return it. But then I was like, but
Speaker 2: I really really want it. And then one day one
Speaker 2: of the after they had wrapped and you know, assigned everything,
Speaker 2: my doorbell rang and one of the writer's assistants had
Speaker 2: come and just left the sea pappy head on my
Speaker 2: front porch. So I opened the door. There's no person there,
Speaker 2: just the seat he mounted, so it was he's on
Speaker 2: my bookshelf inside.
Speaker 6: Good.
Speaker 3: I love it. I love that we all have our
Speaker 3: souvenirs on our bookshelf. So I felt really bad, like
Speaker 3: karma wise, that I had taken a thing that didn't
Speaker 3: belong to me from the set, but clearly everybody did.
Speaker 3: And the fact that yours is behind you on the bookshelf,
Speaker 3: and yours is on your bookshelf.
Speaker 2: And minds, I have several things. Yeah, I have several
Speaker 2: things that still have the like Warner Brothers tag of
Speaker 2: Now now I'm going to go to Warner Brothers show.
Speaker 3: That's hilarious.
Speaker 2: Never be allowed on the lot of This is like
Speaker 2: a con you know.
Speaker 3: Honestly, what we're going to have to do is some day,
Speaker 3: if they ever bring the show back, we'll all just
Speaker 3: have to show up the deck. Yeah, exactly. I still
Speaker 3: have my jacket that remember the jacket.
Speaker 2: You have your Letterman jacket.
Speaker 3: Well, I don't have the Letterman jacket, but I do
Speaker 3: have the jacket that DJ gave to me for Christmas, remember,
Speaker 3: and then I she gave me this really fancy leather jacket,
Speaker 3: and then I give her like a daytona Beach University sweatshirt.
Speaker 2: So yes, yes.
Speaker 3: A million times, and I still have that. You know,
Speaker 3: I guess a couple of souvenirs. I don't have a
Speaker 3: ton of souvenirs, but but yeah, but that's my Fuller
Speaker 3: House souvenirs. The sailboat from Joey's Little Alcove. It's not
Speaker 3: the original, Like if you go back and watch Full House,
Speaker 3: it was a bigger sailboat.
Speaker 2: It was.
Speaker 3: I don't think. I guess they might find the original
Speaker 3: sailboat or whatever.
Speaker 1: Did you come up with the character trait of Steve
Speaker 1: being obsessed with food and always, you know, going into
Speaker 1: the came up with.
Speaker 3: It because I was a high school wrestler, and so
Speaker 3: the idea was that high school wrestlers just must eat
Speaker 3: ten thousand calories a day, you know, like I see it.
Speaker 2: In my friend is not just teenage boys like my
Speaker 2: fourteen year old.
Speaker 3: I see it like you could literally feed that kid
Speaker 3: all day long, like Michael Phelps or something, you know,
Speaker 3: not stop eating. And because I remember that was written
Speaker 3: in pretty early, that Steve, Because like I remember when
Speaker 3: they when I became on as a series regular and
Speaker 3: they wrote my little no I guess oh yeah. And
Speaker 3: season the first season I was on as a regular,
Speaker 3: it was Steve is like looking in the fridge, and
Speaker 3: then he turned you know, I turn around. But in
Speaker 3: the next season they made it I was throwing a
Speaker 3: football or something very athletic, which, as.
Speaker 4: You both not true.
Speaker 3: I am not athletic. I can't throw a football. Your
Speaker 3: catch a football?
Speaker 2: Well you did for one shot of an opening sequence though,
Speaker 2: so there was a take.
Speaker 3: Forty seven special events whatever. But and then again then
Speaker 3: I was a wrestler. Remember the episode I had to
Speaker 3: wrestle Bob. That was really Oh and.
Speaker 2: I don't know that I can't we haven't gotten to
Speaker 2: that one yet, but I can't wait.
Speaker 3: So now, what do you guys? You know you guys
Speaker 3: are rewatching the whole show. Do you do that on
Speaker 3: your podcast or do you you like do like a
Speaker 3: viewing thing and then watch it and comment and stuff,
Speaker 3: or or is your popular.
Speaker 2: We watch it ahead of time and then just recap it.
Speaker 3: Oh that's cool, that's cool.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we go scene by scene and then give our
Speaker 1: commentary on what we think about the scenes and until
Speaker 1: behind the.
Speaker 5: Scene stories as Yeah, that's really along.
Speaker 3: That's fun.
Speaker 4: It's really fun.
Speaker 1: It's so fun watching us as little kids, little tiny
Speaker 1: you guys.
Speaker 3: I mean there must be because I remember, mean I
Speaker 3: only did fifty of them, and there were hundreds of them,
Speaker 3: and there's plenty that I don't one.
Speaker 2: Hundred and ninety two episodes I got, and you.
Speaker 3: Were so young, there's probably a lot that you don't
Speaker 3: remember even shooting at all.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't. I mean a lot of this, well,
Speaker 2: a lot of it I remember, like vaguely, but until
Speaker 2: I watched the show, because I didn't, you know, really
Speaker 2: watch it growing up. Like until I watch I'm like,
Speaker 2: oh my god, that's right. Like I will have definitely
Speaker 2: have memories of doing things that it kind of don't
Speaker 2: come up until it's funny.
Speaker 3: Because you did a lot of crazy stuff, like I
Speaker 3: mean the one where Andrew is on a unicycle, Like
Speaker 3: that's crazy, Like can you still ride a unise?
Speaker 2: I can't wait for that story.
Speaker 4: I don't, probably not.
Speaker 1: I haven't tried in decades, So I still have the
Speaker 1: unicycle though, but I haven't tried to get on it
Speaker 1: because I don't really want to break it here.
Speaker 2: Yeah, now it's not as fun now you're like, oh,
Speaker 2: now it sounds like a hospital trip.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's funny. I remember having to learn skills for
Speaker 3: shows and stuff.
Speaker 2: Like when I was juggling.
Speaker 3: Yeah, like on the show I did before Full House,
Speaker 3: I had to learn how to ride to do uh,
Speaker 3: what's it called rollerblading, which was like the super hot
Speaker 3: thing at the time, and how to do it You've
Speaker 3: got to die, you Yeah, they got a guy who
Speaker 3: had one like the X Games, come and teach us
Speaker 3: all how to roller blade and jump off stick. All
Speaker 3: of a sudden, I'm like an amazing roller blade. You know.
Speaker 3: It's like if they bring in professionals and it's like
Speaker 3: you have to learn. I don't know. And then you know,
Speaker 3: I had a thing where they brought me back for
Speaker 3: the series finale where I did be DJ's secret prom date.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, but I and they call and I was
Speaker 3: already in college, but they said it's our I didn't
Speaker 3: know who was the series finale or the season finale,
Speaker 3: but it was. Did we know it was the last
Speaker 3: one ever at the time, Yeah, we.
Speaker 5: Knew, so we knew and a few weeks before we
Speaker 5: found out.
Speaker 3: They wanted to bring me back to this DJ secret
Speaker 3: prom date and I couldn't tell anybody, so don't They
Speaker 3: were like, don't tell anyone from the cast. We're going
Speaker 3: to fly you out and hide you out back for
Speaker 3: the whole day and be bummed because I was like
Speaker 3: back there hiding in this trailer and everybody was hanging
Speaker 3: out and it was the last day of Full House Football.
Speaker 3: But I had to wait till tape night to reveal
Speaker 3: myself on you know, DJ opens the Door.
Speaker 2: And it was right.
Speaker 3: But the funny thing is I never so I didn't
Speaker 3: really wasn't on set, so I wasn't like watching the taping,
Speaker 3: and then I guess I never watched the show. So
Speaker 3: for years people had come up to me and talk
Speaker 3: about Michelle falling off a horse and losing her memory,
Speaker 3: and I was like, I have no idea what you're talking.
Speaker 2: Well, actually that that was not the last episode we shot.
Speaker 2: The last episode we shot is different than the last
Speaker 2: episode that aired.
Speaker 3: Oh interesting.
Speaker 2: So the last episode we shot was I think Andrew
Speaker 2: Keegan was on it as like somebody that I liked,
Speaker 2: the appropiated.
Speaker 3: The problem wasn't the.
Speaker 2: Yes, that was not the final episode that aired. They
Speaker 2: The last one that aired was when Michelle fell off
Speaker 2: the horse and had amnesia and then came back. And
Speaker 2: I think that was where, yeah, we jumped the shark
Speaker 2: and then we were like and we're out. You know,
Speaker 2: once we went to amnesia, we were like, we were done.
Speaker 3: We couldn't figure out why. I don't remember, because like
Speaker 3: you remember the final.
Speaker 2: Episode, you fell off a horse and had amnesia, and that.
Speaker 3: Was fine in real life. That's what's so sad. That's
Speaker 3: a baby the episode of But they in my you know,
Speaker 3: the Fuller House, do you guys remember there were everybody
Speaker 3: was crying at the finale and like the audience was
Speaker 3: crying and asked was crying and it felt like a
Speaker 3: series finale. And in my memory, I don't remember that
Speaker 3: taping feeling like such a big deal like thees.
Speaker 2: Oh it was. It was. He was sobbing, we were crying.
Speaker 3: You were obviously the series finale. We didn't know it
Speaker 3: was going to be because that episode ended up being
Speaker 3: the serious finale. But wasn't the series finale taping wise.
Speaker 4: It wasn't our last taping.
Speaker 2: It wasn't right. It wasn't I think you. I can't remember.
Speaker 2: I don't remember if the prom episode was the last
Speaker 2: one that we taped, but I think.
Speaker 3: It was the last one that aired. It was the
Speaker 3: last show I think of the show.
Speaker 2: Okay, got If it was the last one that aired,
Speaker 2: then yeah, that was the Michelle it was not. But
Speaker 2: you're right, it was probably not a big deal because
Speaker 2: that was not the last show. Weave show.
Speaker 3: That makes perfect sense because I don't remember that.
Speaker 2: It all makes sense, No, I get it.
Speaker 3: That's what's great about doing these podcasts. You know, we
Speaker 3: get to sort of dig deep and figure the stuff out.
Speaker 3: And by the way, then we'll have fans.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, fans will correct us.
Speaker 4: Some fan will correct us. Anyways, if we got it
Speaker 4: wrong exactly, there are facts.
Speaker 3: Actually, if you ever want to, if you ever want to,
Speaker 3: like borrow my sailboat and I'll borrow your cookie jar,
Speaker 3: we could swab.
Speaker 5: I was gonna say, I feel bad.
Speaker 4: Bad did get from you.
Speaker 3: If it was like some random guest cast or whatever
Speaker 3: stealing the cookie jar. I would have been like, bro,
Speaker 3: give me the cookie jar. But Michael was like, oh,
Speaker 3: I was going to give it to Andrea, And I
Speaker 3: was like it's for Andrea.
Speaker 1: Well, I'm we can definitely swap. We'll do a prop swap.
Speaker 1: Props you can keep you can keep the cookie jar
Speaker 1: for you know, six months.
Speaker 2: Out of the right, I have custody rotate it.

Speaker 3: This is this is what happened when I did Bob's
Speaker 3: podcast too. With Bob's Like, I'm gonna have to cut
Speaker 3: so much in this part.
Speaker 2: But see, the thing is is that we want to
Speaker 2: just talk and you know, hang out, and we could.
