0:00:00.720 --> 0:00:16.240
<v Speaker 1>I am all in again. Oh that's just you.

0:00:17.800 --> 0:00:22.320
<v Speaker 2>I Smell pop Culture with Eastern Allen and iHeart radio podcast.

0:00:22.640 --> 0:00:25.799
<v Speaker 2>Hi friends, it's I Smell pop Culture. My name is

0:00:25.840 --> 0:00:29.240
<v Speaker 2>Easton Allen. You heard Scott saying it earlier, he said

0:00:29.280 --> 0:00:32.199
<v Speaker 2>my name. That's the coolest part of the show for me.

0:00:32.400 --> 0:00:35.000
<v Speaker 2>I love hearing Scott Patterson say my name. We are

0:00:35.240 --> 0:00:37.720
<v Speaker 2>going to be hanging out and talking about pop culture

0:00:37.880 --> 0:00:38.879
<v Speaker 2>because I smell it.

0:00:39.000 --> 0:00:41.120
<v Speaker 1>I smell pop culture. Do you smell it? You can't

0:00:41.120 --> 0:00:44.600
<v Speaker 1>hear it, you can't taste it yet. And here's what

0:00:44.640 --> 0:00:45.280
<v Speaker 1>we do on this show.

0:00:45.280 --> 0:00:47.400
<v Speaker 2>If this is your first time hanging out with us,

0:00:47.640 --> 0:00:50.520
<v Speaker 2>we Gilmer Girls does all these great pop culture references.

0:00:50.840 --> 0:00:53.280
<v Speaker 2>They really make the world of Stars Hollow feel like

0:00:53.360 --> 0:00:57.400
<v Speaker 2>a real place by linking it to our world. They're

0:00:57.440 --> 0:01:02.000
<v Speaker 2>referencing movies, TV shows, music, celebrities. All these things get

0:01:02.040 --> 0:01:04.120
<v Speaker 2>referenced in the show. And we're not just going to

0:01:04.200 --> 0:01:05.800
<v Speaker 2>list them off. Here's what we're going to do. We're

0:01:05.800 --> 0:01:08.640
<v Speaker 2>going to dive deeper. We are going to talk to

0:01:08.640 --> 0:01:11.560
<v Speaker 2>the people that make these pop culture references real. We're

0:01:11.560 --> 0:01:13.800
<v Speaker 2>going to talk to people behind them, and we're going

0:01:13.880 --> 0:01:17.680
<v Speaker 2>to find out how they became a pop culture icon.

0:01:18.240 --> 0:01:22.759
<v Speaker 1>So this week we're going back to the nineties. People.

0:01:23.880 --> 0:01:27.360
<v Speaker 1>When you think about nineties sitcoms, what comes to mind?

0:01:27.440 --> 0:01:28.240
<v Speaker 1>What do you think about?

0:01:28.880 --> 0:01:31.880
<v Speaker 2>In my opinion, if you talk about the nineties and

0:01:31.920 --> 0:01:34.720
<v Speaker 2>you talk about a sitcom, there is one show that

0:01:34.840 --> 0:01:38.479
<v Speaker 2>comes to mind. There is one, and that is Full House.

0:01:38.920 --> 0:01:40.560
<v Speaker 2>Think about full House, that theme.

0:01:40.400 --> 0:01:42.160
<v Speaker 1>Song everywhere you look.

0:01:42.240 --> 0:01:45.800
<v Speaker 2>And then the font, the full House font. That's ninety

0:01:45.920 --> 0:01:49.880
<v Speaker 2>sitcom font. So many of the themes in Full House

0:01:50.040 --> 0:01:53.720
<v Speaker 2>are just so iconic of that era, and it's a

0:01:53.720 --> 0:01:55.960
<v Speaker 2>show that you can continue to revisit over and over.

0:01:56.680 --> 0:01:59.600
<v Speaker 2>We're going to talk to Andrea Barber. She played Kimmi

0:01:59.640 --> 0:02:02.560
<v Speaker 2>Gibble on Full House. She was in every season. She

0:02:02.720 --> 0:02:05.640
<v Speaker 2>was there from the beginning. She's the funny, kind of

0:02:05.680 --> 0:02:09.120
<v Speaker 2>weird girl that lives next door. She's DJ Tanner's best friend.

0:02:09.800 --> 0:02:12.160
<v Speaker 2>And we are going to talk to her today. And

0:02:12.200 --> 0:02:16.000
<v Speaker 2>here's the reason why full House was mentioned in Gilmore Girls,

0:02:16.120 --> 0:02:19.480
<v Speaker 2>not once, but twice. And I'm going to tell you

0:02:19.520 --> 0:02:23.160
<v Speaker 2>what those references are. The first one is in season six,

0:02:23.240 --> 0:02:27.560
<v Speaker 2>episode sixteen. This is when Bridesmaids revisited. And I'm going

0:02:27.600 --> 0:02:29.520
<v Speaker 2>to be before I read this off to you. I'm

0:02:29.560 --> 0:02:31.680
<v Speaker 2>going to come out front and say I think this

0:02:31.800 --> 0:02:34.480
<v Speaker 2>joke sucks. I don't like this at all, and I

0:02:34.760 --> 0:02:36.320
<v Speaker 2>has not aged well and I think even at the

0:02:36.360 --> 0:02:37.440
<v Speaker 2>moment it was not cool to do.

0:02:37.560 --> 0:02:39.360
<v Speaker 1>But I hear it is. I'm going to say it.

0:02:39.440 --> 0:02:42.639
<v Speaker 2>Laura is like watching Gigi, and Gigi's watching full House,

0:02:43.200 --> 0:02:45.960
<v Speaker 2>and laurle I says, oh, full House. You know, I

0:02:45.960 --> 0:02:48.160
<v Speaker 2>think the Olsen Twins way less now than they did

0:02:48.200 --> 0:02:51.640
<v Speaker 2>on that show. Huh, not cool to do. I don't

0:02:51.680 --> 0:02:52.160
<v Speaker 2>like that joke.

0:02:52.280 --> 0:02:56.440
<v Speaker 1>So they were referenced again on season seven, episode five,

0:02:56.639 --> 0:02:57.560
<v Speaker 1>The Great Stink.

0:02:58.320 --> 0:03:01.080
<v Speaker 2>Logan and Rory are walking down this and Rory says

0:03:01.080 --> 0:03:04.760
<v Speaker 2>that Bobby called them an adorable couple. Bobby is Logan's

0:03:04.840 --> 0:03:08.600
<v Speaker 2>a coworker, and Rory did not like that compliment. She

0:03:08.720 --> 0:03:10.600
<v Speaker 2>said that adorable is what you say about a Full

0:03:10.639 --> 0:03:13.240
<v Speaker 2>House rerun. You don't say that about a couple. She

0:03:13.280 --> 0:03:16.280
<v Speaker 2>did not like being called adorable, But full House is adorable.

0:03:16.280 --> 0:03:18.040
<v Speaker 2>That's what we love about it. And you know who

0:03:18.080 --> 0:03:21.240
<v Speaker 2>else is adorable? Kimmy Gibbler. We love her as the neighbor.

0:03:21.520 --> 0:03:24.560
<v Speaker 2>We love everything Kimmy stands for, and we are going

0:03:24.560 --> 0:03:27.880
<v Speaker 2>to talk to Andrea Barber. She brought Kimmy to life.

0:03:27.919 --> 0:03:31.480
<v Speaker 2>And now Andrea is here, it is I smell pop culture. Andrew,

0:03:31.639 --> 0:03:33.240
<v Speaker 2>thank you so much for doing this. It is so

0:03:33.360 --> 0:03:34.040
<v Speaker 2>nice to meet you.

0:03:34.400 --> 0:03:34.600
<v Speaker 1>Hi.

0:03:34.880 --> 0:03:38.040
<v Speaker 3>What an intro. That's fantastic. I'll come on the show

0:03:38.080 --> 0:03:39.560
<v Speaker 3>anytime with that kind of.

0:03:39.480 --> 0:03:42.120
<v Speaker 2>Intro strap in. It's only going to get better from here.

0:03:43.120 --> 0:03:45.800
<v Speaker 2>So there are a lot of fictional neighbors out there

0:03:45.800 --> 0:03:47.920
<v Speaker 2>in sitcom land, and I have to say, Kimmy is

0:03:48.120 --> 0:03:52.080
<v Speaker 2>my favorite. Wilson on Home Improvement, You're out. Kimmy Gilbler

0:03:52.200 --> 0:03:52.600
<v Speaker 2>is the best.

0:03:53.080 --> 0:03:56.760
<v Speaker 3>You know, She's definitely more flavorful than Wilson, that's for.

0:03:56.680 --> 0:04:02.400
<v Speaker 2>Sure, absolutely absolutely so. Before we dive into the full

0:04:02.440 --> 0:04:06.800
<v Speaker 2>house of it all, the if people haven't seen Full House,

0:04:06.800 --> 0:04:08.760
<v Speaker 2>and if you haven't, what on earth is going on

0:04:08.840 --> 0:04:09.080
<v Speaker 2>with you?

0:04:10.320 --> 0:04:11.240
<v Speaker 3>Right right?

0:04:11.400 --> 0:04:14.680
<v Speaker 2>Kimmy Gibler is DJ Tanner is a best friend. And

0:04:14.880 --> 0:04:19.680
<v Speaker 2>your friendship is so fun It's so funny, it's so beautiful.

0:04:19.800 --> 0:04:23.600
<v Speaker 2>It's just it's something I love to watch. And Gilmore

0:04:23.640 --> 0:04:27.479
<v Speaker 2>Girls is like, at its core about the relationships between

0:04:27.600 --> 0:04:31.359
<v Speaker 2>mothers and daughters and other female friendships. Would you the

0:04:31.400 --> 0:04:34.880
<v Speaker 2>friendship that Kimmy had with DJ would is that something

0:04:34.920 --> 0:04:37.680
<v Speaker 2>that was inspired by anything in your personal life, Like

0:04:37.720 --> 0:04:39.360
<v Speaker 2>do you have close female friendships like that?

0:04:39.800 --> 0:04:44.320
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I don't know if it was inspired by I mean,

0:04:44.320 --> 0:04:47.800
<v Speaker 3>obviously I was very close with Candice Cameron Bray growing up,

0:04:47.960 --> 0:04:50.000
<v Speaker 3>just because we spent a lot of time together on

0:04:50.080 --> 0:04:53.720
<v Speaker 3>the set. I was also close with Jody Sweeten as well.

0:04:54.680 --> 0:04:57.320
<v Speaker 3>But I don't know if it was inspired. The writers

0:04:57.360 --> 0:05:02.839
<v Speaker 3>did mine our lives for storylines, so whether it was

0:05:02.920 --> 0:05:06.560
<v Speaker 3>getting your first pimple or stuffing you're broad to make

0:05:06.600 --> 0:05:09.159
<v Speaker 3>your boobs look bigger or things like that, you know,

0:05:09.240 --> 0:05:12.960
<v Speaker 3>they would kind of like mine our personal lives for ideas.

0:05:12.960 --> 0:05:15.040
<v Speaker 3>Because it was a bunch of men. There was a

0:05:15.080 --> 0:05:18.840
<v Speaker 3>bunch of male writers who didn't have kids writing for

0:05:18.880 --> 0:05:21.000
<v Speaker 3>this show. This family show.

0:05:21.000 --> 0:05:22.720
<v Speaker 1>Incredible, kind of hysterical.

0:05:23.040 --> 0:05:24.800
<v Speaker 3>I don't know, if you know the premise, the original

0:05:24.880 --> 0:05:27.719
<v Speaker 3>premise of Full House was supposed to be. It wasn't

0:05:27.720 --> 0:05:29.600
<v Speaker 3>supposed to be a family show. It was supposed to

0:05:29.640 --> 0:05:33.320
<v Speaker 3>be house of comics with three comedians, just you know,

0:05:33.400 --> 0:05:36.800
<v Speaker 3>kind of like a bachelor pad almost so Jeff Franklin

0:05:37.160 --> 0:05:40.400
<v Speaker 3>quickly pivoted in a different direction when ABC was like, yeah,

0:05:40.440 --> 0:05:42.160
<v Speaker 3>we need a family show, and he was like, oh,

0:05:42.279 --> 0:05:45.120
<v Speaker 3>let me change this pitch on the spot, you know,

0:05:45.240 --> 0:05:47.520
<v Speaker 3>in the in the middle of the pitch meeting. So

0:05:47.920 --> 0:05:53.960
<v Speaker 3>thus full House was born. But yeah, so the friendship

0:05:53.960 --> 0:05:57.599
<v Speaker 3>between Kimmy and DJ. I love this friendship because not

0:05:57.839 --> 0:06:01.320
<v Speaker 3>many Tanners liked Kimmy Gibbler. She was you know, they

0:06:01.400 --> 0:06:04.360
<v Speaker 3>kinda gave her a hard time. Granted she deserved some

0:06:04.440 --> 0:06:06.440
<v Speaker 3>of it because she was a bit of a wild card.

0:06:06.480 --> 0:06:08.520
<v Speaker 3>She never rang the doorbell, she never knocked. She just

0:06:08.560 --> 0:06:11.960
<v Speaker 3>barged in and said what was on her mind. But

0:06:12.040 --> 0:06:15.320
<v Speaker 3>DJ was there for her. Like through it all, they

0:06:15.400 --> 0:06:19.640
<v Speaker 3>remained best friends, and the Tanners were kind of a

0:06:19.680 --> 0:06:23.039
<v Speaker 3>surrogate family for Kimmy Gibbler. You know, she just wanted

0:06:23.040 --> 0:06:24.640
<v Speaker 3>to be a member of the Tanner family.

0:06:25.680 --> 0:06:27.719
<v Speaker 1>I mean, who would want to be you know, we

0:06:27.800 --> 0:06:28.360
<v Speaker 1>all you.

0:06:28.320 --> 0:06:30.680
<v Speaker 3>Know, it felt This is the number one thing I

0:06:30.720 --> 0:06:33.280
<v Speaker 3>hear from fans. It's like they feel like they were

0:06:33.640 --> 0:06:36.440
<v Speaker 3>the Tanners were the family that they wish they had

0:06:36.520 --> 0:06:39.240
<v Speaker 3>had growing up. They felt like it was an extension.

0:06:39.279 --> 0:06:41.080
<v Speaker 3>They were an extension of the family, and they were.

0:06:41.200 --> 0:06:44.279
<v Speaker 3>You know, our fans are very loyal, were very lucky.

0:06:45.640 --> 0:06:46.520
<v Speaker 3>So yeah, I love that.

0:06:47.560 --> 0:06:50.080
<v Speaker 2>I mean you started You're in the first episode of

0:06:50.120 --> 0:06:51.880
<v Speaker 2>Full House. I mean like you were like a recurring

0:06:51.960 --> 0:06:54.280
<v Speaker 2>character for the first few seasons, right, but then like

0:06:54.440 --> 0:06:57.440
<v Speaker 2>you you were there from the beginning when you were

0:06:57.480 --> 0:06:59.880
<v Speaker 2>ten years old when you started that rule.

0:07:00.080 --> 0:07:03.520
<v Speaker 3>Yes, it's from ages ten to eighteen. So my entire

0:07:04.120 --> 0:07:06.760
<v Speaker 3>awkward adolescence is captured on tape.

0:07:07.000 --> 0:07:09.720
<v Speaker 1>Textbook. Formative years is spent on the set.

0:07:10.080 --> 0:07:14.000
<v Speaker 3>Right, Yeah, which, yeah, I'm surprised I came out of

0:07:14.000 --> 0:07:18.000
<v Speaker 3>that unscathed. But no, it's I mean it's fun. You know.

0:07:18.440 --> 0:07:20.880
<v Speaker 3>Jody Sweeten and I have this rewatch podcast how rud

0:07:20.920 --> 0:07:24.960
<v Speaker 3>Tannerto's also on iHeartRadio, and so we're watching the show

0:07:25.000 --> 0:07:27.120
<v Speaker 3>for the first time, and it's so great. It's like

0:07:27.160 --> 0:07:30.880
<v Speaker 3>watching home movies together and make fun of each other's hairstyles,

0:07:31.320 --> 0:07:35.840
<v Speaker 3>the bad bangs, the terrible perms, the shoulder pads. There's

0:07:35.880 --> 0:07:38.800
<v Speaker 3>so many shoulder pads, you know, in the early nineties.

0:07:38.840 --> 0:07:42.840
<v Speaker 3>It's just it's fantastic. So yeah, it's it's it's a

0:07:42.880 --> 0:07:45.080
<v Speaker 3>blessing and a curse to have all of your formative

0:07:45.120 --> 0:07:48.920
<v Speaker 3>years for the world to see. It's fun when you

0:07:49.200 --> 0:07:50.920
<v Speaker 3>get to look back and you can kind of laugh

0:07:50.960 --> 0:07:54.000
<v Speaker 3>at yourself and make fun of yourself at the time,

0:07:54.360 --> 0:07:56.040
<v Speaker 3>I don't know if I was laughing at about it

0:07:56.080 --> 0:07:58.400
<v Speaker 3>at the time, but now I can look back with

0:07:58.480 --> 0:08:01.640
<v Speaker 3>fond memories and think, oh, yeah, we were silly. It

0:08:01.680 --> 0:08:02.240
<v Speaker 3>was a good time.

0:08:03.000 --> 0:08:05.880
<v Speaker 2>It's a you know, I know, people that act as

0:08:05.960 --> 0:08:08.440
<v Speaker 2>children have there's so many different experiences that come out there.

0:08:08.480 --> 0:08:12.800
<v Speaker 2>And I'm ten years old, I mean, doing this, I'm curious,

0:08:12.840 --> 0:08:16.280
<v Speaker 2>what was that like? Because you probably it must have

0:08:16.320 --> 0:08:18.280
<v Speaker 2>been cool to be on it. You're on a TV set,

0:08:18.320 --> 0:08:20.720
<v Speaker 2>you're in a studio, you're on TV. I mean, that's

0:08:20.720 --> 0:08:23.480
<v Speaker 2>got to be insanely cool. But also you're ten, you're eleven,

0:08:23.880 --> 0:08:27.480
<v Speaker 2>like your friends are going to the park and you know,

0:08:27.640 --> 0:08:30.720
<v Speaker 2>stuff like that, Like what was that like for you?

0:08:30.840 --> 0:08:33.040
<v Speaker 1>Did you love it? Did you dislike it at times?

0:08:33.320 --> 0:08:33.560
<v Speaker 3>Yes?

0:08:33.600 --> 0:08:34.000
<v Speaker 1>And yes?

0:08:34.200 --> 0:08:37.440
<v Speaker 3>Like that's this is a this is a multifaceted question

0:08:37.520 --> 0:08:41.760
<v Speaker 3>with multifaceted answers At ten years old. Yeah, I was

0:08:41.800 --> 0:08:44.680
<v Speaker 3>still enjoying it. You know, I still had a great

0:08:44.760 --> 0:08:49.120
<v Speaker 3>balance of real home life and then set life. My

0:08:49.200 --> 0:08:51.400
<v Speaker 3>parents were great about that, making sure I still went

0:08:51.480 --> 0:08:55.400
<v Speaker 3>to regular school, regular public school. On my hiatus weeks.

0:08:56.320 --> 0:08:58.960
<v Speaker 3>I still had, you know, my friends at school, I

0:08:59.000 --> 0:09:00.959
<v Speaker 3>still went to like school dances. Once I got to

0:09:01.040 --> 0:09:02.360
<v Speaker 3>high school, I went to my prom. You know, I

0:09:02.400 --> 0:09:05.200
<v Speaker 3>had all that stuff. So I remained as grounded and

0:09:05.280 --> 0:09:08.280
<v Speaker 3>as normal as possible. But yes, you know, Full House

0:09:08.360 --> 0:09:11.320
<v Speaker 3>was on the air for eight seasons, which is a

0:09:11.360 --> 0:09:14.160
<v Speaker 3>long time. So somewhere in the middle of that, I

0:09:14.200 --> 0:09:15.959
<v Speaker 3>did get really burned out and I was like, I

0:09:15.960 --> 0:09:18.040
<v Speaker 3>don't want to do this anymore, Like I just want

0:09:18.080 --> 0:09:20.680
<v Speaker 3>to hang out with my friends after school. It wasn't

0:09:20.679 --> 0:09:23.800
<v Speaker 3>so much Full House. It was the audition circuit because

0:09:24.280 --> 0:09:27.920
<v Speaker 3>as a child actor, it's like every afternoon after school

0:09:28.440 --> 0:09:31.760
<v Speaker 3>getting on the freeway, sitting in traffic, doing these auditions

0:09:31.840 --> 0:09:34.720
<v Speaker 3>that you probably won't get because it's all a numbers

0:09:34.760 --> 0:09:37.880
<v Speaker 3>game and you get a lot of rejection. And I

0:09:37.920 --> 0:09:39.959
<v Speaker 3>was just tired of it. So my parents were great,

0:09:40.120 --> 0:09:42.800
<v Speaker 3>They said, you know what, you can quit anytime you want.

0:09:43.559 --> 0:09:45.680
<v Speaker 3>You can't quit on the one oh one freeway in

0:09:45.720 --> 0:09:48.880
<v Speaker 3>the middle of traffic, but with a well thought out

0:09:48.960 --> 0:09:52.760
<v Speaker 3>letter to your agent, you'd stop it anytime. So I

0:09:52.800 --> 0:09:55.840
<v Speaker 3>called up my agent, Judy Savage, and I told her

0:09:56.000 --> 0:09:58.160
<v Speaker 3>I need a break, and she said, great, why don't

0:09:58.200 --> 0:10:01.400
<v Speaker 3>you take you know, three four, five, six months, whatever

0:10:01.440 --> 0:10:03.280
<v Speaker 3>you need and then just call me when you're ready

0:10:03.320 --> 0:10:05.200
<v Speaker 3>to get back into it. So I thought, great, So

0:10:05.240 --> 0:10:09.200
<v Speaker 3>that whole hiatus whatever. I was probably fourteen fifteen years old,

0:10:09.640 --> 0:10:12.680
<v Speaker 3>that whole hiatus period of three or four months when

0:10:12.720 --> 0:10:16.240
<v Speaker 3>we were off off from taping Full House. I was

0:10:16.360 --> 0:10:17.920
<v Speaker 3>just a kid and it was great. And after six

0:10:17.960 --> 0:10:20.000
<v Speaker 3>months I was like, Okay, I'm ready to get back

0:10:20.000 --> 0:10:23.080
<v Speaker 3>to work. I'm refreshed, I'm recharged. And it was a

0:10:23.080 --> 0:10:24.920
<v Speaker 3>good It was a good balance. I had a very

0:10:24.960 --> 0:10:27.360
<v Speaker 3>good balance in my life. So shout out to my

0:10:27.440 --> 0:10:28.800
<v Speaker 3>parents for that.

0:10:29.520 --> 0:10:31.840
<v Speaker 1>That makes me so happy to hear that. That's awesome.

0:10:31.840 --> 0:10:32.920
<v Speaker 1>You have incredible parents.

0:10:33.240 --> 0:10:35.640
<v Speaker 2>But also everyone listening out there, let this be a

0:10:35.640 --> 0:10:38.720
<v Speaker 2>reminder of the importance of taking breaks. I mean, my goodness,

0:10:38.800 --> 0:10:42.360
<v Speaker 2>like that whatever juvenating period for you. And I'm so

0:10:42.679 --> 0:10:44.400
<v Speaker 2>impressed that you had the foresight at such a young

0:10:44.440 --> 0:10:46.200
<v Speaker 2>age to like know, like, I have to do this

0:10:46.240 --> 0:10:48.000
<v Speaker 2>for this time and then I can give back to

0:10:48.040 --> 0:10:48.680
<v Speaker 2>it if I want to.

0:10:49.040 --> 0:10:51.880
<v Speaker 3>Oh. Thanks, Yeah, it's important, especially in whole hustle culture.

0:10:51.920 --> 0:10:54.280
<v Speaker 3>Now it gets different. Being a child actor in the

0:10:54.320 --> 0:10:56.679
<v Speaker 3>ninety it is very different than it is now. I

0:10:56.840 --> 0:10:59.280
<v Speaker 3>can't imagine being a child actor. Now with just the

0:10:59.400 --> 0:11:03.520
<v Speaker 3>presence of social media changes the whole game. But back

0:11:03.559 --> 0:11:05.559
<v Speaker 3>then it was really I feel like child actors in

0:11:05.600 --> 0:11:08.120
<v Speaker 3>the nineties, it was a hobby for us. It wasn't

0:11:08.720 --> 0:11:11.400
<v Speaker 3>We weren't, you know, paying the mortgage for our parents

0:11:11.520 --> 0:11:13.520
<v Speaker 3>with our paychecks. You know, it was really all that

0:11:13.600 --> 0:11:16.560
<v Speaker 3>money went into a trust fund, and it was just

0:11:16.840 --> 0:11:19.800
<v Speaker 3>fun for us. And that's why I stuck with it

0:11:19.840 --> 0:11:22.199
<v Speaker 3>as long as I did. Plus, I was under contract

0:11:22.240 --> 0:11:26.880
<v Speaker 3>with full House, But besides my contractual obligations, it was

0:11:26.920 --> 0:11:29.520
<v Speaker 3>really the people. I mean, I wouldn't be I wouldn't

0:11:29.520 --> 0:11:31.600
<v Speaker 3>be doing a rewatch podcast with Jody if I didn't

0:11:31.600 --> 0:11:33.480
<v Speaker 3>love it. We would never have come back for Fuller

0:11:33.520 --> 0:11:36.080
<v Speaker 3>House if we didn't absolutely love it to our core.

0:11:37.120 --> 0:11:39.720
<v Speaker 3>And so it was a great, great experience. But yeah, no,

0:11:39.880 --> 0:11:42.679
<v Speaker 3>take those breaks, people, take those breaks if you need them.

0:11:42.679 --> 0:11:43.840
<v Speaker 3>That is such a good lesson.

0:11:44.200 --> 0:11:46.520
<v Speaker 1>Where did you this film? Full House? Like? Where was

0:11:46.559 --> 0:11:47.640
<v Speaker 1>that shot?

0:11:48.360 --> 0:11:51.040
<v Speaker 3>In Los Angeles? Two different locations. We started out at

0:11:51.160 --> 0:11:55.439
<v Speaker 3>Lori mar which I believe is now Sony Studios in

0:11:55.559 --> 0:11:58.199
<v Speaker 3>Culver City, and then somewhere in the middle of the

0:11:58.280 --> 0:12:00.280
<v Speaker 3>run of the show, we moved to Warner brother there's

0:12:00.760 --> 0:12:04.400
<v Speaker 3>Stage twenty four, So right there in Gilmore Girl's land. Yes,

0:12:04.640 --> 0:12:08.320
<v Speaker 3>walked past that little gazebo you know, every single day.

0:12:10.160 --> 0:12:10.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:12:10.520 --> 0:12:12.959
<v Speaker 3>So we were there stage twenty four, and we came

0:12:13.000 --> 0:12:16.360
<v Speaker 3>back for Fuller House to stage twenty four at Warner Brothers.

0:12:16.440 --> 0:12:19.600
<v Speaker 3>So it was a very full circle moment to be

0:12:19.760 --> 0:12:22.200
<v Speaker 3>on that same stage, same dressing rooms. It was like

0:12:22.240 --> 0:12:22.959
<v Speaker 3>coming home again.

0:12:23.200 --> 0:12:23.880
<v Speaker 1>That is awesome.

0:12:24.040 --> 0:12:27.400
<v Speaker 2>Stage twenty four also the Friends stage for the Friend's

0:12:27.840 --> 0:12:30.120
<v Speaker 2>iconic I mean, my god. So if you're going on

0:12:30.120 --> 0:12:32.040
<v Speaker 2>that Warner Brothers tour, and if you listening to this podcast,

0:12:32.160 --> 0:12:34.280
<v Speaker 2>you either have or you have plans to because it's

0:12:34.320 --> 0:12:36.480
<v Speaker 2>all Gilmore so Gilmore heavy, but there's also a lot

0:12:36.480 --> 0:12:39.240
<v Speaker 2>of full House history there. That's Stage twenty four. Write

0:12:39.280 --> 0:12:40.239
<v Speaker 2>that down, everybody.

0:12:40.559 --> 0:12:43.720
<v Speaker 3>It's a magical stage. Yep. Good things happen on that stage.

0:12:44.320 --> 0:12:46.559
<v Speaker 2>So and you were saying, you're talking about Fuller House,

0:12:46.760 --> 0:12:50.040
<v Speaker 2>and that's another similarity that we have to Gilmore Girls

0:12:50.040 --> 0:12:52.480
<v Speaker 2>is because Gilmre Girls came back for a revival many

0:12:52.600 --> 0:12:56.199
<v Speaker 2>years later as wellmazing. Yes was that So that was

0:12:56.240 --> 0:12:58.240
<v Speaker 2>a fun experience for you. Did you enjoy What was

0:12:58.240 --> 0:13:01.040
<v Speaker 2>it like stipping back into that role after a decade

0:13:01.120 --> 0:13:01.480
<v Speaker 2>or whatever.

0:13:01.520 --> 0:13:01.800
<v Speaker 1>It was.

0:13:02.120 --> 0:13:05.959
<v Speaker 3>Oh, it was so rewarding, like it was great. Jeff

0:13:05.960 --> 0:13:09.520
<v Speaker 3>Franklin are the creator of both full House and Fuller House,

0:13:09.800 --> 0:13:12.600
<v Speaker 3>our executive producer. I think he didn't know what to expect.

0:13:12.640 --> 0:13:14.600
<v Speaker 3>He's like, you know, it's been thirty years. I don't know.

0:13:15.840 --> 0:13:17.720
<v Speaker 3>He was like, do you guys need acting lessons? Like

0:13:17.760 --> 0:13:20.280
<v Speaker 3>it had been like twenty years for me. I had

0:13:20.480 --> 0:13:23.960
<v Speaker 3>stepped away from Hollywood. I hadn't acted in twenty years,

0:13:24.240 --> 0:13:25.400
<v Speaker 3>So I was kind of like, I don't know. I

0:13:25.440 --> 0:13:27.400
<v Speaker 3>think I still don't It's like riding a bike, right,

0:13:28.360 --> 0:13:32.120
<v Speaker 3>I can still do it, And it was. It was effortless. Again,

0:13:32.200 --> 0:13:34.959
<v Speaker 3>you do something for eight years of your childhood, it's

0:13:34.960 --> 0:13:38.800
<v Speaker 3>like learning a language as a child. You're like a sponge.

0:13:38.840 --> 0:13:41.040
<v Speaker 3>You just absorb it and it's with you for the

0:13:41.080 --> 0:13:43.720
<v Speaker 3>rest of your life. So that's how Kimmy Gibler was

0:13:43.760 --> 0:13:46.720
<v Speaker 3>for me. She's just inside of me all the time.

0:13:46.920 --> 0:13:49.000
<v Speaker 3>She just lias dormant now and then, but then she

0:13:49.080 --> 0:13:53.000
<v Speaker 3>comes out and emerges. But it was great. It really

0:13:53.040 --> 0:13:56.760
<v Speaker 3>felt like coming to your childhood home, walking through the

0:13:56.800 --> 0:14:00.560
<v Speaker 3>set for the first time again after thirty years. The

0:14:00.640 --> 0:14:04.560
<v Speaker 3>couch was there, the oo plaid curtains and couch, and

0:14:04.760 --> 0:14:08.920
<v Speaker 3>like all the weird nautical decor. Why why it had

0:14:08.920 --> 0:14:11.120
<v Speaker 3>a nautical decor. I don't know. Maybe it's the San

0:14:11.120 --> 0:14:16.120
<v Speaker 3>Francisco Bay, I don't know. Besides that, yeah, it was

0:14:16.400 --> 0:14:18.640
<v Speaker 3>so rewarding to come back as an adult and play

0:14:18.679 --> 0:14:20.680
<v Speaker 3>the same character that I did for eight years as

0:14:20.680 --> 0:14:24.120
<v Speaker 3>a child, because I know now as an adult how

0:14:24.200 --> 0:14:27.080
<v Speaker 3>fleeting that is. Like, nobody gets eight seasons of a

0:14:27.120 --> 0:14:31.480
<v Speaker 3>show anymore. You're lucky if you get a second season

0:14:31.640 --> 0:14:35.080
<v Speaker 3>or a third season on any of these platforms. But yeah,

0:14:35.120 --> 0:14:37.880
<v Speaker 3>and it's about the people. Like the Full House cast,

0:14:38.040 --> 0:14:40.880
<v Speaker 3>we're family. I know it's so schmaltzy and cheesy, but

0:14:40.960 --> 0:14:44.480
<v Speaker 3>we really do love each other so much. We are

0:14:44.480 --> 0:14:48.480
<v Speaker 3>in each other's lives forever. And yeah, it was it

0:14:48.520 --> 0:14:50.240
<v Speaker 3>was great. I would come back again, all of us,

0:14:50.320 --> 0:14:52.720
<v Speaker 3>without even hesitation. We would come back and do a

0:14:52.760 --> 0:14:55.520
<v Speaker 3>fullest House, which I don't know if anybody wants that.

0:14:55.640 --> 0:14:58.600
<v Speaker 3>I know the diehard Full House fans want that, and

0:14:58.640 --> 0:14:59.800
<v Speaker 3>we would love to do it, just to have an

0:14:59.800 --> 0:15:01.160
<v Speaker 3>ex used to hang out and get to do it

0:15:01.200 --> 0:15:03.760
<v Speaker 3>all over again and sit on that tiny blue couch

0:15:03.840 --> 0:15:06.600
<v Speaker 3>that does really doesn't fit more than two people, but

0:15:06.680 --> 0:15:08.560
<v Speaker 3>we somehow crammed a whole family.

0:15:08.520 --> 0:15:09.320
<v Speaker 1>On that couch.

0:15:12.040 --> 0:15:14.240
<v Speaker 2>I'm so glad that that was the experience you had, because,

0:15:14.280 --> 0:15:17.040
<v Speaker 2>like as viewers, I mean, the experience, it was so

0:15:17.280 --> 0:15:19.760
<v Speaker 2>such similar way to describe it, it's like it felt

0:15:19.760 --> 0:15:22.600
<v Speaker 2>like going back to a safe place and a place

0:15:22.600 --> 0:15:25.640
<v Speaker 2>that we as viewers again have so many fond memories,

0:15:25.640 --> 0:15:27.880
<v Speaker 2>and so hearing that like to make it was such

0:15:27.880 --> 0:15:30.000
<v Speaker 2>a pleasant thing, it makes it even better.

0:15:30.040 --> 0:15:30.960
<v Speaker 1>It's so good.

0:15:31.000 --> 0:15:32.920
<v Speaker 3>Oh, I'm glad to hear that. Yeah, I know, it's

0:15:33.160 --> 0:15:37.760
<v Speaker 3>it's it's very special, right, the poll of nostalgia is

0:15:37.760 --> 0:15:40.600
<v Speaker 3>so strong, and I don't know, especially with nineties the

0:15:40.680 --> 0:15:45.200
<v Speaker 3>nineties television shows pop culture, there was something very comforting

0:15:45.360 --> 0:15:48.640
<v Speaker 3>about shows from the eighties and nineties. It was a

0:15:48.640 --> 0:15:51.640
<v Speaker 3>simpler time. It was before nine to eleven, it was

0:15:51.680 --> 0:15:54.560
<v Speaker 3>before social media, it was before cell phones, and I

0:15:54.600 --> 0:15:57.920
<v Speaker 3>think people kind of miss the simplicity of those times.

0:15:57.920 --> 0:16:00.760
<v Speaker 3>So you're right, it's like comfort food. She shows like

0:16:00.800 --> 0:16:03.800
<v Speaker 3>full House and Gilmore Girls and then the reboots that

0:16:03.840 --> 0:16:06.080
<v Speaker 3>it makes you feel good inside, and a lot of

0:16:06.120 --> 0:16:09.280
<v Speaker 3>people you know in their in their forties now they have,

0:16:09.560 --> 0:16:12.840
<v Speaker 3>they have kids, they're raising kids, and they're introducing these

0:16:12.880 --> 0:16:15.200
<v Speaker 3>shows to their kids too and making it a family

0:16:15.240 --> 0:16:18.680
<v Speaker 3>watching experience all over again. And I love it. I

0:16:18.680 --> 0:16:20.920
<v Speaker 3>think that's great. I think we should get back to

0:16:21.000 --> 0:16:24.080
<v Speaker 3>like the T G i F Fright Night, Family on

0:16:24.120 --> 0:16:26.840
<v Speaker 3>the Couch. You know, this is this is something that's

0:16:26.880 --> 0:16:30.280
<v Speaker 3>missing from society. Now, let's bring it back Easton, Let's

0:16:30.280 --> 0:16:31.280
<v Speaker 3>bring back T G I F.

0:16:31.640 --> 0:16:33.360
<v Speaker 1>Yes, we're bringing back t G I F.

0:16:35.240 --> 0:16:40.480
<v Speaker 2>There's so many great Kimmy moments on Full House. The

0:16:40.520 --> 0:16:45.640
<v Speaker 2>ones that stand out to me practicing bagpipes or the fence.

0:16:46.040 --> 0:16:46.400
<v Speaker 3>Yes.

0:16:46.800 --> 0:16:48.400
<v Speaker 1>The other one I love is when you had a

0:16:48.440 --> 0:16:49.320
<v Speaker 1>pet ostriche.

0:16:49.480 --> 0:16:51.840
<v Speaker 3>Yes that might have been that was Was that the

0:16:51.840 --> 0:16:53.400
<v Speaker 3>same that might have been the same episode?

0:16:53.760 --> 0:16:54.880
<v Speaker 1>Yes, yes it was, and.

0:16:54.920 --> 0:16:57.120
<v Speaker 3>Why I don't know how those things are related, bagpipes

0:16:57.120 --> 0:16:58.680
<v Speaker 3>and ostriches, but it made sense.

0:16:59.080 --> 0:17:01.520
<v Speaker 2>That's a tie of and the beauty of Kimmy Gibbler.

0:17:01.640 --> 0:17:05.600
<v Speaker 2>Anything can happen. And so that was a puppet ostrich.

0:17:05.920 --> 0:17:09.359
<v Speaker 3>Oh yes, it was the fakest looking like this is

0:17:09.400 --> 0:17:11.719
<v Speaker 3>where you really gotta suspend belief, Like I'm sure they

0:17:11.760 --> 0:17:14.480
<v Speaker 3>spent a lot of money on that puppet, but it

0:17:14.680 --> 0:17:18.000
<v Speaker 3>just looked terrible. But yeah, they wanted Kimmy to have

0:17:18.040 --> 0:17:21.160
<v Speaker 3>a pet Ostrich and she was kind of driving Jesse

0:17:21.440 --> 0:17:24.239
<v Speaker 3>nuts during this episode, like between the Ostrich that was

0:17:24.280 --> 0:17:27.240
<v Speaker 3>poking him and his it laid it have a mullet then,

0:17:27.280 --> 0:17:30.600
<v Speaker 3>but his you know the hair watch the hair, huh.

0:17:30.640 --> 0:17:33.280
<v Speaker 3>And then the bagpipes again, of course Kimmy Gibler has

0:17:33.320 --> 0:17:35.760
<v Speaker 3>bagpipes because of course got to annoy the neighbors with

0:17:35.840 --> 0:17:40.520
<v Speaker 3>the loudest instrument possible. Yes, so you know, we we

0:17:41.200 --> 0:17:43.960
<v Speaker 3>had we had a little nod to that episode in

0:17:44.160 --> 0:17:46.919
<v Speaker 3>Fuller House when we finally saw the Gibbler House for

0:17:46.960 --> 0:17:49.560
<v Speaker 3>the first time, the one and only time we saw

0:17:49.920 --> 0:17:52.800
<v Speaker 3>inside the Gibbler House. They were like, let's put some

0:17:52.920 --> 0:17:54.800
<v Speaker 3>Easter eggs in there. So I'm like, okay, let's have

0:17:54.880 --> 0:17:57.840
<v Speaker 3>some bagpipes in the corner. They couldn't find an Ostrich,

0:17:57.880 --> 0:18:00.119
<v Speaker 3>but they had like a portrait of an Ostrich and

0:18:00.280 --> 0:18:03.159
<v Speaker 3>like all of those old tiny portraits of an hostage

0:18:03.760 --> 0:18:06.320
<v Speaker 3>up there, there was a Unice cycle in the corner.

0:18:06.480 --> 0:18:09.000
<v Speaker 3>I mean, it was just It's a great episode for

0:18:09.920 --> 0:18:12.440
<v Speaker 3>fans that know Full House like the back of their hand.

0:18:12.640 --> 0:18:14.920
<v Speaker 3>There's so many good little Easter eggs there.

0:18:15.240 --> 0:18:18.040
<v Speaker 2>I love I love that. That was really the first

0:18:18.080 --> 0:18:20.800
<v Speaker 2>time you see Kimmy's house. I didn't realize that. That's crazy.

0:18:20.920 --> 0:18:23.160
<v Speaker 3>The only time we saw inside the house. We never

0:18:23.240 --> 0:18:26.679
<v Speaker 3>met Kimmy's parents. Yeah, one of my biggest regrets in

0:18:26.720 --> 0:18:29.119
<v Speaker 3>life is that we never met Kimmy's parents. If I

0:18:29.160 --> 0:18:32.400
<v Speaker 3>could cast them myself, that my next question. She said,

0:18:32.440 --> 0:18:35.840
<v Speaker 3>I would cast Martin Short as mister Gibbler and Jane

0:18:35.920 --> 0:18:39.520
<v Speaker 3>Lynch as Missus Gibbler all star cast.

0:18:39.800 --> 0:18:42.200
<v Speaker 2>Yes, Oh my god, slam dunk, Oh my god, that'd

0:18:42.200 --> 0:18:46.400
<v Speaker 2>be so good. Andrew Barber is hanging.

0:18:46.160 --> 0:18:46.600
<v Speaker 1>Out with us.

0:18:46.600 --> 0:18:48.639
<v Speaker 2>This is the Eismo pop culture podcast. We have so

0:18:48.720 --> 0:18:50.840
<v Speaker 2>much more to get into. We have so much This

0:18:50.920 --> 0:18:52.639
<v Speaker 2>is a full house over here, people, and we have

0:18:52.720 --> 0:18:54.239
<v Speaker 2>We're diving into it.

0:18:54.320 --> 0:18:55.880
<v Speaker 1>Stick around. We'll be back after this.

0:19:05.240 --> 0:19:07.800
<v Speaker 2>It is the icemo pop culture podcast on I am

0:19:07.840 --> 0:19:09.800
<v Speaker 2>all In. My name is Easton Allen. I'm here with

0:19:09.800 --> 0:19:14.959
<v Speaker 2>Andrea Barber, Kimmy Gibbler on full House and we are

0:19:15.040 --> 0:19:19.480
<v Speaker 2>diving into the iconic moments from full House. There are

0:19:19.480 --> 0:19:23.320
<v Speaker 2>so many and the reason we're kind of talking to

0:19:23.320 --> 0:19:27.200
<v Speaker 2>you today is because full House was mentioned several times.

0:19:26.760 --> 0:19:28.560
<v Speaker 3>On Gilmour Girls, amazing.

0:19:29.440 --> 0:19:32.120
<v Speaker 2>Gilmer Girl's famous for pop culture references that they're they're

0:19:32.160 --> 0:19:38.160
<v Speaker 2>mentioned at least twice Fullhouse is mentioned. I'm honored when

0:19:38.240 --> 0:19:41.679
<v Speaker 2>you are, like as an adult, when you're like just

0:19:41.760 --> 0:19:44.879
<v Speaker 2>watching a movie or watching TV and like a character

0:19:44.960 --> 0:19:47.320
<v Speaker 2>is watching Full House or like talks about it. How

0:19:47.320 --> 0:19:48.280
<v Speaker 2>does that feel for you?

0:19:48.840 --> 0:19:52.640
<v Speaker 3>It's the coolest feeling ever. It really makes me feel

0:19:52.640 --> 0:19:54.720
<v Speaker 3>like I've made it in life. We know more than

0:19:55.520 --> 0:20:00.880
<v Speaker 3>any award or professional recognition. If we're mentioned in some

0:20:00.920 --> 0:20:04.560
<v Speaker 3>popular shows or like on Jeopardy Yes, or in the

0:20:04.600 --> 0:20:08.679
<v Speaker 3>New York Times crossword puzzle, Like, I literally get so excited.

0:20:09.880 --> 0:20:13.399
<v Speaker 3>It's amazing. It's amazing. I just thought, wow, because sometimes

0:20:13.440 --> 0:20:15.000
<v Speaker 3>you feel like you're in a little bubble, Like I'm

0:20:15.040 --> 0:20:17.560
<v Speaker 3>just in my little full House bubble. You know, it's

0:20:17.640 --> 0:20:20.119
<v Speaker 3>just it's just us and our our die hard fans.

0:20:20.160 --> 0:20:23.560
<v Speaker 3>But no, suddenly we're being referenced on Gilmore Girls and

0:20:23.880 --> 0:20:27.480
<v Speaker 3>oh we do exist outside the full House universe. It's

0:20:27.600 --> 0:20:30.320
<v Speaker 3>very flattering. It's great. It makes you. It makes you

0:20:30.359 --> 0:20:34.560
<v Speaker 3>realize how universally loved full House is. If we're I mean,

0:20:34.720 --> 0:20:36.600
<v Speaker 3>depending on the reference, I'm not sure what you're talking

0:20:36.600 --> 0:20:39.239
<v Speaker 3>about Maybe it was a negative reference. I don't know,

0:20:39.640 --> 0:20:41.400
<v Speaker 3>because the show does get made fun of a lot too.

0:20:41.440 --> 0:20:44.560
<v Speaker 3>Full House is just famous for being corny and cheesy,

0:20:44.600 --> 0:20:48.280
<v Speaker 3>and the critics hated it. We made the show for

0:20:48.320 --> 0:20:50.480
<v Speaker 3>the fans, not for the critics. I'll just say it

0:20:50.520 --> 0:20:51.000
<v Speaker 3>that way.

0:20:51.200 --> 0:20:54.119
<v Speaker 2>I love that, and as a fan, I mean I

0:20:54.160 --> 0:20:56.840
<v Speaker 2>love full House. I don't think it's corner cheese. I

0:20:56.880 --> 0:21:01.520
<v Speaker 2>think it's it's since here. It's fun and it's comforting,

0:21:01.560 --> 0:21:02.600
<v Speaker 2>like we were talking about earlier.

0:21:02.680 --> 0:21:04.480
<v Speaker 3>It's it's great food.

0:21:04.840 --> 0:21:10.119
<v Speaker 1>Yes, exactly. The reference one of them. I'm going to

0:21:10.160 --> 0:21:12.720
<v Speaker 1>say this. I don't think this is a great thing

0:21:12.800 --> 0:21:13.120
<v Speaker 1>to say.

0:21:13.240 --> 0:21:15.040
<v Speaker 3>It's tell me, please tell me.

0:21:15.560 --> 0:21:18.960
<v Speaker 2>One of the references, as Laura the mother is a

0:21:19.520 --> 0:21:21.680
<v Speaker 2>they're watching full House, and then she says, I think

0:21:21.680 --> 0:21:23.879
<v Speaker 2>the Olsen Twins way less now than they did on

0:21:23.920 --> 0:21:24.280
<v Speaker 2>the show.

0:21:24.520 --> 0:21:27.040
<v Speaker 3>Ah. Yeah, that sucks.

0:21:27.560 --> 0:21:28.680
<v Speaker 1>That is not cool to say.

0:21:29.240 --> 0:21:33.240
<v Speaker 2>But then there was another one, another reference where a

0:21:33.359 --> 0:21:37.360
<v Speaker 2>character says, oh, they're an adorable couple, and then Alexis

0:21:37.359 --> 0:21:40.680
<v Speaker 2>Plodel Rory says, adorable is what you say about full House.

0:21:40.720 --> 0:21:41.879
<v Speaker 1>That's not what you say about a couple.

0:21:42.320 --> 0:21:48.000
<v Speaker 3>Oh so very appropriate. Yes, that's true. Full House was adorable. Absolutely,

0:21:48.160 --> 0:21:51.920
<v Speaker 3>And you know what, we take all the cheesy references

0:21:51.920 --> 0:21:55.600
<v Speaker 3>like we we know, we know exactly what our brand is.

0:21:55.800 --> 0:21:59.880
<v Speaker 3>We are not offended with people call us overly sacharin

0:22:00.280 --> 0:22:03.000
<v Speaker 3>or you know, too sweet or cheesy. That's okay. We

0:22:03.080 --> 0:22:05.359
<v Speaker 3>embrace it. We embrace the cheese. That's what we do.

0:22:05.840 --> 0:22:08.800
<v Speaker 3>That's it's it calm from the nineties, that's what It's

0:22:09.200 --> 0:22:11.120
<v Speaker 3>practically mandatory to be cheesy.

0:22:11.520 --> 0:22:11.720
<v Speaker 1>You know.

0:22:12.160 --> 0:22:13.679
<v Speaker 2>I'll go as far to say this, you're not just

0:22:13.800 --> 0:22:15.760
<v Speaker 2>us thatcom from the nineties. I would argue that full

0:22:15.800 --> 0:22:18.520
<v Speaker 2>House is the sitcom from the nineties. I mean when

0:22:18.520 --> 0:22:20.960
<v Speaker 2>you see like a parody of like a sitcom from

0:22:21.000 --> 0:22:23.280
<v Speaker 2>the nineties, it's just full House, like they're just they'd

0:22:23.359 --> 0:22:26.719
<v Speaker 2>use the font.

0:22:24.320 --> 0:22:28.240
<v Speaker 3>The intro where you smile at the camera.

0:22:28.359 --> 0:22:32.760
<v Speaker 1>Yes, yes, that is it. It's it's wild to think about, Like,

0:22:32.840 --> 0:22:35.760
<v Speaker 1>if you could distill it down to one show, it's

0:22:35.760 --> 0:22:37.320
<v Speaker 1>gotta be I'm saying it's full House.

0:22:37.680 --> 0:22:41.920
<v Speaker 3>Oh, I agree. I happen to agree with you. No,

0:22:42.000 --> 0:22:44.440
<v Speaker 3>because it had all the elements. It has the family,

0:22:45.000 --> 0:22:48.280
<v Speaker 3>it has the ridiculous storylines, it has the laughs, but

0:22:48.320 --> 0:22:51.280
<v Speaker 3>it has the heart and I think yes, once our

0:22:51.320 --> 0:22:55.240
<v Speaker 3>producers figured out that that was the magic behind the

0:22:55.280 --> 0:23:00.359
<v Speaker 3>show was those heart scenes, especially between Uncle Jesse and Michelle.

0:23:00.760 --> 0:23:02.600
<v Speaker 3>That's what made the show magic, you know, That's what

0:23:02.640 --> 0:23:05.760
<v Speaker 3>people really responded to, are those heart moments and the

0:23:05.800 --> 0:23:09.359
<v Speaker 3>relationships between you know, the dads and the girls, or

0:23:09.400 --> 0:23:13.080
<v Speaker 3>the uncles and the nieces. That's it's all about the relationships,

0:23:13.800 --> 0:23:16.240
<v Speaker 3>and people respond to that type of chemistry, just like

0:23:16.359 --> 0:23:18.679
<v Speaker 3>on Gilmore Girls too, you know, they're responding to the

0:23:18.760 --> 0:23:22.840
<v Speaker 3>chemistry between the mother daughter. People get get invested, you know,

0:23:22.880 --> 0:23:25.560
<v Speaker 3>their hearts get invested in these characters too, and we

0:23:25.920 --> 0:23:28.040
<v Speaker 3>care about these characters. We want to know what happened

0:23:28.040 --> 0:23:30.240
<v Speaker 3>to them, where did they go, what are they doing now?

0:23:31.600 --> 0:23:34.720
<v Speaker 3>You don't get them shows these days because no networks

0:23:34.760 --> 0:23:38.800
<v Speaker 3>and streamers, they don't give the show time to develop

0:23:38.960 --> 0:23:41.480
<v Speaker 3>or breathe. You know. It's like if you don't hit

0:23:41.520 --> 0:23:44.440
<v Speaker 3>the ground running after the pilot episode, you don't get

0:23:44.440 --> 0:23:47.359
<v Speaker 3>the numbers, you're canceled. And it's like, but people want

0:23:47.400 --> 0:23:50.280
<v Speaker 3>to invest their emotions into these characters. You want to

0:23:50.280 --> 0:23:52.600
<v Speaker 3>get attached to them, and that's why people are so

0:23:52.640 --> 0:23:54.920
<v Speaker 3>attached to characters and shows from the nineties.

0:23:55.720 --> 0:24:00.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I'm so curious, like when you Okay, sorry, I

0:24:00.359 --> 0:24:03.080
<v Speaker 2>have a couple questions here about when when you started

0:24:03.240 --> 0:24:06.320
<v Speaker 2>Full House, Like first first started film, how did that work?

0:24:06.320 --> 0:24:10.240
<v Speaker 2>Did you film like the first ten episodes? Like like

0:24:10.560 --> 0:24:13.439
<v Speaker 2>what was the schedule? And then it's versus when it

0:24:13.440 --> 0:24:14.880
<v Speaker 2>started airing? How did that work?

0:24:15.040 --> 0:24:18.159
<v Speaker 3>Oh? Yeah, there was about a three week delay. Okay,

0:24:18.640 --> 0:24:21.000
<v Speaker 3>very different because you know with streamers and now you

0:24:21.040 --> 0:24:23.640
<v Speaker 3>shoot the whole season. Yeah, so you don't get any

0:24:23.640 --> 0:24:26.639
<v Speaker 3>feedback before you've already like, okay, well we've released it

0:24:26.720 --> 0:24:30.240
<v Speaker 3>into the air. Let's see how people respond. But no,

0:24:31.160 --> 0:24:36.360
<v Speaker 3>in nineteen eighty seven, when Full House started on ABC, yeah,

0:24:36.400 --> 0:24:38.440
<v Speaker 3>we would tape about three weeks before we would air

0:24:38.600 --> 0:24:41.120
<v Speaker 3>that particular episode, so we were probably three or four

0:24:41.160 --> 0:24:44.400
<v Speaker 3>episodes in by the time it started airing. The first

0:24:44.440 --> 0:24:47.040
<v Speaker 3>season kind of bombed, Like I told you, the critics

0:24:47.280 --> 0:24:50.720
<v Speaker 3>hated it. It took until season two to really find

0:24:50.920 --> 0:24:54.720
<v Speaker 3>our footing and get people to pay attention. And the

0:24:54.720 --> 0:24:57.080
<v Speaker 3>critics still didn't like us, but at least the bands did.

0:24:57.840 --> 0:25:00.560
<v Speaker 3>So yeah, I think that's helpful though. It's helpful, and

0:25:00.600 --> 0:25:02.760
<v Speaker 3>maybe that's a key to our success too, because had

0:25:02.760 --> 0:25:07.360
<v Speaker 3>we just taped the whole first season before releasing it.

0:25:07.440 --> 0:25:09.040
<v Speaker 3>We might not have got it. Might have been House

0:25:09.080 --> 0:25:12.639
<v Speaker 3>of Comics, you know, it might just this raunchy bachelor

0:25:12.720 --> 0:25:15.280
<v Speaker 3>pad type of story where the kids are just kind

0:25:15.320 --> 0:25:18.360
<v Speaker 3>of afterthoughts. But it was the audience reaction that made

0:25:18.400 --> 0:25:21.840
<v Speaker 3>our producers stop and listen and say, hey, you know what,

0:25:22.520 --> 0:25:24.800
<v Speaker 3>it's really about the kids. I mean, it's about the

0:25:24.840 --> 0:25:26.639
<v Speaker 3>adults in the kid It's about the family. It's just

0:25:26.680 --> 0:25:29.080
<v Speaker 3>about the family unit. It's not just the guys being

0:25:29.080 --> 0:25:32.960
<v Speaker 3>bumbly idiots not knowing how to change a diaper. It's

0:25:33.000 --> 0:25:37.360
<v Speaker 3>about their love for the family and this loving, these

0:25:37.400 --> 0:25:41.840
<v Speaker 3>loving relationships. So thank goodness, thank goodness for ABC and

0:25:41.960 --> 0:25:44.920
<v Speaker 3>for network TV. Back in nineteen eighty seven, we had

0:25:44.920 --> 0:25:46.480
<v Speaker 3>that type of release schedule so much.

0:25:46.520 --> 0:25:49.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm so surprised. I'm surprised it's that fast of a turnaround.

0:25:49.520 --> 0:25:53.560
<v Speaker 2>Honestly, Like I just assumed everything was made like, oh,

0:25:53.560 --> 0:25:55.199
<v Speaker 2>you make the whole season and then and then if

0:25:55.200 --> 0:25:57.639
<v Speaker 2>there's like an audience reaction to someone like it's going

0:25:57.680 --> 0:25:59.520
<v Speaker 2>to take like at least a season to correct that.

0:25:59.600 --> 0:26:02.399
<v Speaker 2>But like you could, Yeah, I mean you're getting feedback

0:26:02.440 --> 0:26:05.199
<v Speaker 2>and you're still making that first season that's pretty that's awesome.

0:26:05.359 --> 0:26:07.840
<v Speaker 3>It's unheard of now, so yeah, I'm not surprised you're

0:26:07.880 --> 0:26:10.360
<v Speaker 3>surprised because yeah, they don't do it like that anymore.

0:26:10.400 --> 0:26:13.320
<v Speaker 3>But there were definite advantages to that, and God bless

0:26:13.320 --> 0:26:16.439
<v Speaker 3>our editor for being able to that. Turnaround time was

0:26:16.720 --> 0:26:17.520
<v Speaker 3>very quick.

0:26:18.119 --> 0:26:20.159
<v Speaker 2>And this guy's working with like tape and you know,

0:26:20.400 --> 0:26:22.879
<v Speaker 2>like the stuff like like you don't have computers like

0:26:22.960 --> 0:26:23.159
<v Speaker 2>you do.

0:26:23.320 --> 0:26:24.600
<v Speaker 1>Now that's incredible.

0:26:24.800 --> 0:26:25.440
<v Speaker 3>Oh, totally.

0:26:26.160 --> 0:26:29.960
<v Speaker 2>Something else we love about Kimmy Gibbler the wardrobe. I

0:26:29.960 --> 0:26:33.919
<v Speaker 2>mean it's the wardrobe is incredible. Every outfit she's in

0:26:34.160 --> 0:26:35.359
<v Speaker 2>is something that I want to wear.

0:26:35.480 --> 0:26:36.720
<v Speaker 3>Now amazing.

0:26:38.000 --> 0:26:40.600
<v Speaker 2>I'm curious what was the like, what was the process

0:26:40.720 --> 0:26:43.359
<v Speaker 2>like for developing her like clothing style? Did you have

0:26:43.359 --> 0:26:45.679
<v Speaker 2>any input on that? What did you think when they

0:26:45.680 --> 0:26:46.879
<v Speaker 2>showed you some of those outfits?

0:26:47.160 --> 0:26:51.159
<v Speaker 3>Oh? I hated it. Yeah, this was the dark spot

0:26:51.200 --> 0:26:54.679
<v Speaker 3>in my childhood. Oh no, well no, no, I'm exaggerating.

0:26:55.280 --> 0:26:57.280
<v Speaker 3>I did, but I did hate the wardrobe. Like you know,

0:26:57.520 --> 0:26:59.800
<v Speaker 3>Candace and Jodie were wearing these cute outfits and I

0:26:59.920 --> 0:27:02.720
<v Speaker 3>was I was like, it looks like I'm wearing underwear

0:27:02.760 --> 0:27:05.480
<v Speaker 3>on the outside of my pants, Like this looks ridiculous.

0:27:06.800 --> 0:27:08.560
<v Speaker 3>And you know, Jody and I just interviewed one of

0:27:08.560 --> 0:27:12.080
<v Speaker 3>our uh, one of our former executive producers from the show,

0:27:12.080 --> 0:27:15.119
<v Speaker 3>Dennis Rinstler, and he told me their process for picking

0:27:15.200 --> 0:27:18.439
<v Speaker 3>out Kimmy Gibbler's outfits. They would do these rack checks,

0:27:18.640 --> 0:27:22.159
<v Speaker 3>you know, before we would tape anything, and so the

0:27:22.480 --> 0:27:24.960
<v Speaker 3>wardrobe department would give them several options of what Kimmy

0:27:24.960 --> 0:27:28.600
<v Speaker 3>could wear this week, and Dennis Rinstler said, whatever was

0:27:28.640 --> 0:27:32.480
<v Speaker 3>the worst looking outfit, whatever was the most horrifying, that's

0:27:32.520 --> 0:27:35.399
<v Speaker 3>the one they would pick. And I'm like, oh no,

0:27:36.160 --> 0:27:38.119
<v Speaker 3>but he apologized. He's like, I felt bad because you

0:27:38.119 --> 0:27:40.480
<v Speaker 3>were a teenage girl and you probably didn't want to

0:27:40.520 --> 0:27:43.480
<v Speaker 3>wear those, and I'm like, no, I didn't. And I

0:27:43.520 --> 0:27:45.879
<v Speaker 3>probably could have spoken up and said, hey, guys, you know,

0:27:45.920 --> 0:27:48.760
<v Speaker 3>I'm not really comfortable with this, but I was a

0:27:48.880 --> 0:27:52.399
<v Speaker 3>very shy teenager, not like Kimmy Gibbler at all, and

0:27:52.440 --> 0:27:53.760
<v Speaker 3>so I just was like, I want to be a

0:27:53.800 --> 0:27:56.040
<v Speaker 3>team player. I'm not gonna make waves. I'm just gonna

0:27:56.080 --> 0:27:59.040
<v Speaker 3>wear this and grin and bear it. And most of

0:27:59.080 --> 0:28:01.359
<v Speaker 3>the time the outfits were fine. There was only a

0:28:01.359 --> 0:28:04.000
<v Speaker 3>couple occasions where I'm like I'm not comfortable in this,

0:28:04.119 --> 0:28:06.679
<v Speaker 3>but I did wish that I could just wear the

0:28:06.720 --> 0:28:09.320
<v Speaker 3>cute outfits because at the end of the season, the

0:28:09.359 --> 0:28:12.639
<v Speaker 3>wardrobe people were like, you can take home anything you want,

0:28:12.760 --> 0:28:15.600
<v Speaker 3>and Candice and Jodie would be taking home like armloads

0:28:15.640 --> 0:28:19.040
<v Speaker 3>of clothes and I was like, yeah, I'm good, I'm good.

0:28:19.080 --> 0:28:23.439
<v Speaker 3>I'm just going to go home. Thanks, that's okay. I

0:28:23.440 --> 0:28:25.960
<v Speaker 3>appreciated it. In Fuller House. I feel like this was

0:28:26.000 --> 0:28:30.240
<v Speaker 3>the Kimmy Gibbler's redemption because then she had quirky clothing,

0:28:30.320 --> 0:28:32.240
<v Speaker 3>but it was cool. It was like almost like a

0:28:32.440 --> 0:28:36.040
<v Speaker 3>Carrie Bradshaw type of it was a little eccentric, but

0:28:36.119 --> 0:28:39.360
<v Speaker 3>it was fashionable. And that's I loved the Fuller House

0:28:39.440 --> 0:28:44.080
<v Speaker 3>Kimmy Gibbler wardrobe. That was Chef's kiss. Loved it ten ten,

0:28:44.520 --> 0:28:45.920
<v Speaker 3>no notes, loved it.

0:28:45.800 --> 0:28:47.560
<v Speaker 1>It was some great outfits in Fuller House.

0:28:47.960 --> 0:28:50.840
<v Speaker 2>And the other thing I wanted to bring up about

0:28:50.920 --> 0:28:54.840
<v Speaker 2>Kimmy that I really really admire is that she's Kimmy

0:28:54.920 --> 0:28:58.320
<v Speaker 2>is weird, like she is a weird kid, but she's

0:28:58.360 --> 0:29:03.520
<v Speaker 2>so confident and she just embraces who she is. And

0:29:03.960 --> 0:29:06.600
<v Speaker 2>that's something when I watch those scenes back, I'm just

0:29:06.640 --> 0:29:09.840
<v Speaker 2>like what a great role model, especially for kids watching

0:29:09.880 --> 0:29:12.200
<v Speaker 2>this show, to be like, you can be weird, you

0:29:12.240 --> 0:29:15.760
<v Speaker 2>can be bizarre and out there and people are going

0:29:15.800 --> 0:29:19.040
<v Speaker 2>to love you. If you just have to love yourself

0:29:19.080 --> 0:29:20.800
<v Speaker 2>and be confident in who you are, there's nothing wrong

0:29:20.840 --> 0:29:24.640
<v Speaker 2>with you. And I just think I think embracing weirdness

0:29:24.680 --> 0:29:26.480
<v Speaker 2>is one of the greatest things we can do as humans.

0:29:26.880 --> 0:29:30.400
<v Speaker 2>And all our favorite every great artist is a weird person,

0:29:30.800 --> 0:29:34.280
<v Speaker 2>and that includes Kimmy Gibler, and I just admire that

0:29:34.320 --> 0:29:36.040
<v Speaker 2>so much, and I think that's such an incredible role

0:29:36.120 --> 0:29:38.719
<v Speaker 2>to play on TV for kids to see. So I

0:29:38.720 --> 0:29:40.560
<v Speaker 2>wanted to thank you for bringing that to life because

0:29:41.280 --> 0:29:41.880
<v Speaker 2>it's amazing.

0:29:42.360 --> 0:29:45.120
<v Speaker 3>That means so much. Thank you for saying that. It

0:29:45.160 --> 0:29:48.600
<v Speaker 3>took me a really long time to even recognize that.

0:29:48.680 --> 0:29:53.120
<v Speaker 3>It took me until well, probably until the almost the

0:29:53.160 --> 0:29:54.840
<v Speaker 3>Fuller House days, So it took me until I was

0:29:54.920 --> 0:29:58.280
<v Speaker 3>in my late thirties, and fans would come up to

0:29:58.320 --> 0:29:59.960
<v Speaker 3>me and say that thank you for teaching me that

0:30:00.080 --> 0:30:02.880
<v Speaker 3>it's okay to be weird. So suddenly, like all the

0:30:02.960 --> 0:30:06.360
<v Speaker 3>kids that felt like outcasts in high school, they would

0:30:06.400 --> 0:30:08.280
<v Speaker 3>come out if the would work and be like, thank

0:30:08.320 --> 0:30:10.200
<v Speaker 3>you for teaching me that it's okay to be different

0:30:10.240 --> 0:30:12.280
<v Speaker 3>and it's okay to you know, march to the beat

0:30:12.280 --> 0:30:15.120
<v Speaker 3>of your own drum. And I'm like, yeah, you know what, Kimmy,

0:30:15.200 --> 0:30:17.040
<v Speaker 3>I never would have said this as a teenager. Kimmy Gibbler

0:30:17.080 --> 0:30:19.600
<v Speaker 3>is a role model, but she really is. She teaches

0:30:19.640 --> 0:30:23.800
<v Speaker 3>you about self love and confidence and just embracing all

0:30:23.840 --> 0:30:27.760
<v Speaker 3>of your quirks and yeah, it's just about being confident.

0:30:27.840 --> 0:30:29.480
<v Speaker 3>I thought, yeah, you know what, we could all use

0:30:29.520 --> 0:30:32.000
<v Speaker 3>a little bit of Kimmy Gibbler inside of us. And

0:30:32.040 --> 0:30:35.520
<v Speaker 3>she's even taught me some things about just embrace yourself,

0:30:35.520 --> 0:30:38.480
<v Speaker 3>embrace the things that make you different, because that is

0:30:38.520 --> 0:30:41.080
<v Speaker 3>your superpower. And so it's a great lesson, such a

0:30:41.080 --> 0:30:43.720
<v Speaker 3>feel good lesson. I love it. I love this character

0:30:43.800 --> 0:30:44.160
<v Speaker 3>so much.

0:30:44.760 --> 0:30:46.400
<v Speaker 1>Oh well, we love her too.

0:30:47.000 --> 0:30:49.000
<v Speaker 2>The Full House we're talking about how Full House is

0:30:49.040 --> 0:30:52.000
<v Speaker 2>like the nineties sitcom that includes the theme song.

0:30:52.040 --> 0:30:54.160
<v Speaker 1>I mean, what a theme song. It's so good.

0:30:55.040 --> 0:30:57.840
<v Speaker 2>I'm just you can be completely honest here, how sick

0:30:57.880 --> 0:30:59.920
<v Speaker 2>of it are you at this point?

0:31:00.240 --> 0:31:01.040
<v Speaker 1>You're not?

0:31:01.040 --> 0:31:05.600
<v Speaker 3>Not? No, It's like you'd think I would be. Yeah, No,

0:31:05.800 --> 0:31:08.560
<v Speaker 3>it's just it's catchy, it's iconic. I mean, I don't

0:31:08.560 --> 0:31:10.960
<v Speaker 3>listen to it every day. I think that helps too. Yeah,

0:31:10.960 --> 0:31:14.120
<v Speaker 3>but even the cast, when we're hanging out and somebody

0:31:14.120 --> 0:31:16.600
<v Speaker 3>says something cheesy, we'll break out of a da da

0:31:16.680 --> 0:31:18.880
<v Speaker 3>da da da. You know, we just be kind of

0:31:19.320 --> 0:31:21.800
<v Speaker 3>poke fun at it because it's so silly. It's like,

0:31:21.840 --> 0:31:24.760
<v Speaker 3>oh yeah, let's end every lunch with a hug and

0:31:24.840 --> 0:31:28.480
<v Speaker 3>a sappy songs. It's funny. So no, I don't. I'm

0:31:28.520 --> 0:31:30.360
<v Speaker 3>not sick of it, not yet. But if I had

0:31:30.360 --> 0:31:32.240
<v Speaker 3>to listen to it every day, I might give you

0:31:32.280 --> 0:31:33.000
<v Speaker 3>a different answer.

0:31:34.840 --> 0:31:37.480
<v Speaker 2>Andrea Barber's with us. This is I Smell Pop Culture

0:31:37.520 --> 0:31:38.640

0:31:52.520 --> 0:31:55.200
<v Speaker 2>In case you're just joining us, you know, I like

0:31:55.400 --> 0:31:57.479
<v Speaker 2>when people just download a podcast and then hop in

0:31:57.640 --> 0:32:00.160
<v Speaker 2>thirty minutes in. That's something that is probably is a

0:32:00.240 --> 0:32:01.720
<v Speaker 2>very fun thing to do, just like you're tuning in

0:32:01.760 --> 0:32:03.240
<v Speaker 2>on the radio. And if you're doing that right now.

0:32:03.400 --> 0:32:04.440

<v Speaker 3>You play on Full House well a fan?

0:32:09.000 --> 0:32:10.080
<v Speaker 1>Yes, yes, yes.

<v Speaker 2>And we're gonna get into your podcast here in a second.

0:32:14.560 --> 0:32:18.560
<v Speaker 2>But I I have some very selfish questions to ask

0:32:18.720 --> 0:32:19.560
<v Speaker 2>about Full House.

0:32:19.800 --> 0:32:20.960
<v Speaker 3>Great, yeah, hit me with them.

0:32:21.040 --> 0:32:24.760
<v Speaker 2>I am just a massive Beach Boys fan, like like massive,

0:32:24.840 --> 0:32:27.800
<v Speaker 2>and I rewatched they were on like two or three

0:32:27.800 --> 0:32:31.160
<v Speaker 2>episodes of Full House and I rewatched it recently and

0:32:31.600 --> 0:32:34.200
<v Speaker 2>I watch Actually, there's there's one where the Tanner family

0:32:34.280 --> 0:32:35.360
<v Speaker 2>joins them on stage.

0:32:35.400 --> 0:32:36.920
<v Speaker 1>I think there. I can't remember where they were.

0:32:36.960 --> 0:32:40.600
<v Speaker 3>I think we're playing a USC they were Colisseum. Yes,

0:32:40.960 --> 0:32:43.240
<v Speaker 3>there was a USC game going on and so we

0:32:43.240 --> 0:32:46.120
<v Speaker 3>were saved. Why not let's have a beach Boy concert

0:32:46.120 --> 0:32:48.440
<v Speaker 3>and throw the Tanners up there. Well, it's just a

0:32:48.520 --> 0:32:51.520
<v Speaker 3>random Friday night, you know, casu right.

0:32:51.520 --> 0:32:51.960

<v Speaker 3>in the living room set with them, So I'm sure

0:33:13.400 --> 0:33:15.800
<v Speaker 3>I was in at least one of the episodes with them.

0:33:16.240 --> 0:33:18.040
<v Speaker 3>And it's always exciting, you know, there's a little like

0:33:18.120 --> 0:33:20.760

0:33:20.760 --> 0:33:23.200

0:33:26.280 --> 0:33:28.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean he's a beach boy now you know,

0:33:28.360 --> 0:33:28.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah he is.

0:33:28.920 --> 0:33:30.880
<v Speaker 3>He tours with them and he plays the drums like

0:33:30.920 --> 0:33:34.760
<v Speaker 3>they're they've been close for decades. But it was still

0:33:34.800 --> 0:33:36.880
<v Speaker 3>all very exciting for the rest of us, you know,

0:33:36.920 --> 0:33:39.080
<v Speaker 3>to have them on the show, and it was it's great.

0:33:39.120 --> 0:33:42.120
<v Speaker 3>They're they're good team players, and they're good sports and

0:33:42.160 --> 0:33:45.600
<v Speaker 3>they don't mind laughing at themselves. It's so funny to

0:33:45.640 --> 0:33:50.840
<v Speaker 3>have musicians on the show. Yeah, because like they get

0:33:50.880 --> 0:33:54.760
<v Speaker 3>really like they're so like they're so talented and they're

0:33:54.800 --> 0:33:58.080
<v Speaker 3>so outgoing, except when it comes to scripts and memorizing lines,

0:33:58.400 --> 0:34:01.160
<v Speaker 3>like suddenly they like clam up. It's like, no, you

0:34:01.200 --> 0:34:04.040
<v Speaker 3>can do this. It's like it's performing, just like you're

0:34:04.400 --> 0:34:07.000
<v Speaker 3>on stage at a concert. You're performing. You just have

0:34:07.160 --> 0:34:10.960
<v Speaker 3>words to say instead of lyrics to sing. So yeah,

0:34:10.960 --> 0:34:12.600
<v Speaker 3>they always would get a little bit nervous about that,

0:34:12.600 --> 0:34:15.239
<v Speaker 3>but that's okay. It's not a live show. Yes, the

0:34:15.280 --> 0:34:19.360
<v Speaker 3>beauty of taping multicam is that you you get to

0:34:19.360 --> 0:34:21.000
<v Speaker 3>mess up, and you can do it all over again.

0:34:21.160 --> 0:34:23.520
<v Speaker 3>So once they realized that, you know, the pressure was

0:34:23.520 --> 0:34:26.560
<v Speaker 3>off a little bit. But it was always exciting having

0:34:26.600 --> 0:34:29.600
<v Speaker 3>them around. It was a big boost for all of

0:34:29.680 --> 0:34:31.600
<v Speaker 3>us on the stage, and for sure all of the

0:34:31.640 --> 0:34:35.520
<v Speaker 3>fans too. They loved it. It's iconic, it really is.

0:34:36.360 --> 0:34:40.960
<v Speaker 2>So I read that you have done over twenty six

0:34:41.080 --> 0:34:42.120
<v Speaker 2>half marathons.

0:34:42.480 --> 0:34:45.840
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, right, that sounds about right. I've lost count

0:34:46.800 --> 0:34:50.600
<v Speaker 3>such a runner I was. I was past tense, I

0:34:50.640 --> 0:34:53.399
<v Speaker 3>was a runner. I haven't run in several years, but yeah,

0:34:53.440 --> 0:34:55.719
<v Speaker 3>in my there was a solid ten year stretch there

0:34:56.120 --> 0:34:59.040
<v Speaker 3>where I yeah, I did probably close to thirty half marathons.

0:34:59.120 --> 0:35:02.520
<v Speaker 3>For full marathons, Wow, in a handful of ten k's

0:35:02.560 --> 0:35:05.319
<v Speaker 3>and five k's, it was. I loved it. Yeah, what

0:35:05.360 --> 0:35:09.359
<v Speaker 3>was wrong with me? My knees? That's what's wrong with me? Now? Yeah,

0:35:09.360 --> 0:35:10.719
<v Speaker 3>that was fun. That was a great time.

0:35:10.960 --> 0:35:12.520
<v Speaker 1>What really quick?

0:35:12.560 --> 0:35:15.920
<v Speaker 2>What advice do you have if someone wants to get

0:35:15.920 --> 0:35:18.640
<v Speaker 2>into running marathon? Marathons are I mean it's twenty six miles,

0:35:18.680 --> 0:35:21.239
<v Speaker 2>that's a that's a that's a big I've only done

0:35:21.280 --> 0:35:21.960
<v Speaker 2>half marathons.

0:35:21.960 --> 0:35:24.080
<v Speaker 1>Personally, I'm too afraid of the twenty six.

0:35:24.719 --> 0:35:26.959
<v Speaker 3>Oh, it's a totally different ballgame. Yep.

0:35:27.080 --> 0:35:30.400
<v Speaker 2>Yes, Like, how do you When I've done the half marathons,

0:35:30.480 --> 0:35:32.360
<v Speaker 2>I have finished, and I always think to myself, if

0:35:32.400 --> 0:35:34.280
<v Speaker 2>I was doing the full, i'd be halfway through.

0:35:34.400 --> 0:35:35.280
<v Speaker 1>This is nuts.

0:35:35.320 --> 0:35:38.240
<v Speaker 2>I feel like I've given everything at this point totally.

0:35:38.520 --> 0:35:41.359
<v Speaker 2>So much of it is mental. What do you like?

0:35:41.480 --> 0:35:43.960
<v Speaker 2>Is there something you like a mantrae you repeat to

0:35:44.000 --> 0:35:45.799
<v Speaker 2>yourself for like what's going on in your head when

0:35:45.840 --> 0:35:48.560
<v Speaker 2>you are halfway through or a third of way through

0:35:48.560 --> 0:35:50.319
<v Speaker 2>and you're starting to feel like, oh God, like I

0:35:50.360 --> 0:35:52.319
<v Speaker 2>have to do this much more like what goes on

0:35:52.400 --> 0:35:53.520
<v Speaker 2>mentally for you during that?

0:35:53.719 --> 0:35:57.080
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. The best advice I have is advice that I

0:35:57.120 --> 0:36:01.160
<v Speaker 3>heard or read from other runners, professional runners, or otherwise,

0:36:01.239 --> 0:36:03.840
<v Speaker 3>is just to run the mile that you're in. So

0:36:03.920 --> 0:36:07.640
<v Speaker 3>when you're on mile one, don't be thinking about mile thirteen.

0:36:08.320 --> 0:36:10.560
<v Speaker 3>You really and that's a great lesson for life to

0:36:10.280 --> 0:36:13.040
<v Speaker 3>just focus on what's at hand. Don't be worrying about

0:36:13.040 --> 0:36:16.239
<v Speaker 3>what's to come two hours from now or next week

0:36:16.320 --> 0:36:19.040
<v Speaker 3>or whatever. Just focus on the mile that you're in.

0:36:19.120 --> 0:36:22.200
<v Speaker 3>So I would I would do that. Mile one always

0:36:22.239 --> 0:36:25.160
<v Speaker 3>feels great, Mile two not so much. But you just

0:36:25.360 --> 0:36:27.359
<v Speaker 3>ride those waves and I'm like, okay, I'm at mile

0:36:27.480 --> 0:36:29.640
<v Speaker 3>six now. Now it's starting to hurt. But that's what's

0:36:29.680 --> 0:36:32.400
<v Speaker 3>supposed to happen. So that's what always happens. I'm just

0:36:32.440 --> 0:36:35.440
<v Speaker 3>gonna push through or maybe take a walk break or

0:36:35.640 --> 0:36:38.919
<v Speaker 3>you know, have some those little running those gels that's

0:36:39.080 --> 0:36:41.600
<v Speaker 3>energy gels that you take. You know, it's you just

0:36:41.800 --> 0:36:44.640
<v Speaker 3>you learn to listen to your body. But just don't

0:36:44.640 --> 0:36:47.440
<v Speaker 3>get ahead of yourself. You gotta just run the mile

0:36:47.520 --> 0:36:49.960
<v Speaker 3>that you're in. It's the best I that's the best

0:36:50.000 --> 0:36:54.000
<v Speaker 3>I advice I have. And also just you get used

0:36:54.000 --> 0:36:56.080
<v Speaker 3>to pain, like that's what running is. It's just being

0:36:56.160 --> 0:37:01.640
<v Speaker 3>comfortable with pain or just being comfortable getting with getting uncomfortable.

0:37:02.440 --> 0:37:05.120
<v Speaker 3>You develop a lot of tolerance for pain when you

0:37:05.200 --> 0:37:09.000
<v Speaker 3>are a runner. So again, excellent model for life. You

0:37:09.120 --> 0:37:11.360
<v Speaker 3>just stick with it. Eventually the pain will end and

0:37:11.400 --> 0:37:14.240
<v Speaker 3>you'll be stronger at the end of it because of it.

0:37:14.320 --> 0:37:16.120
<v Speaker 3>So yeah, I love it.

0:37:16.280 --> 0:37:18.040
<v Speaker 2>I've never heard that run the mile that your and

0:37:18.120 --> 0:37:20.959
<v Speaker 2>that's that's really great advice, like you said, for life

0:37:20.960 --> 0:37:24.319
<v Speaker 2>and for get out there on the streets. You have

0:37:24.560 --> 0:37:28.320
<v Speaker 2>your own podcasts are Rude Tanner Ritas where you recapp

0:37:28.320 --> 0:37:30.480
<v Speaker 2>in Full House, you're hosting it with Jodie Sweeten, who

0:37:30.480 --> 0:37:31.520
<v Speaker 2>played Stephanie Tanner.

0:37:32.120 --> 0:37:33.520
<v Speaker 1>Has that been a fun experience for you?

0:37:33.840 --> 0:37:36.560
<v Speaker 3>Oh, my gosh, we're having a blast. I mean just

0:37:37.200 --> 0:37:40.640
<v Speaker 3>Jody and I hanging out. We always have fun. We

0:37:40.719 --> 0:37:44.160
<v Speaker 3>always make it funny, and the show is very much

0:37:44.719 --> 0:37:47.319
<v Speaker 3>just like two girlfriends chatting over coffee. That's literally what

0:37:47.360 --> 0:37:48.960
<v Speaker 3>we do every week. We get our coffee and then

0:37:49.000 --> 0:37:51.319
<v Speaker 3>we chat and they're like, oh, yeah, we have to

0:37:51.320 --> 0:37:55.279
<v Speaker 3>recap an episode as well, but we're very real. It's

0:37:55.360 --> 0:37:58.640
<v Speaker 3>just us. We're unhinged a lot of the time. There's

0:37:58.680 --> 0:38:02.840
<v Speaker 3>lots of non sequitursins that we go off on. But

0:38:02.920 --> 0:38:06.359
<v Speaker 3>it's been great. We've developed this huge appreciation for Full

0:38:06.400 --> 0:38:09.440
<v Speaker 3>House that we never really had because we didn't watch

0:38:09.480 --> 0:38:12.560
<v Speaker 3>the show growing up. We were working, we were taping

0:38:12.600 --> 0:38:15.560
<v Speaker 3>on Friday nights, so we weren't and this is again

0:38:15.600 --> 0:38:17.880
<v Speaker 3>before the age of streaming, so you either have to

0:38:18.000 --> 0:38:23.160
<v Speaker 3>record the episode on your VCR back in the day

0:38:23.480 --> 0:38:25.719
<v Speaker 3>or you missed it. You miss it, it's all done.

0:38:25.800 --> 0:38:27.920
<v Speaker 3>Maybe catch it in a rerun months from now. But

0:38:28.080 --> 0:38:30.279
<v Speaker 3>that was it, so we were always too busy being

0:38:30.320 --> 0:38:33.359
<v Speaker 3>on the show. To actually watch the show. So Jody

0:38:33.360 --> 0:38:36.040
<v Speaker 3>and I are having a blast again. We make fun

0:38:36.040 --> 0:38:38.799
<v Speaker 3>of each other in our hairstyles and our wardrobe. But

0:38:39.400 --> 0:38:42.000
<v Speaker 3>this show still holds up. Like after we watched the

0:38:42.040 --> 0:38:45.120
<v Speaker 3>pilot episode, I was like, this might be the best

0:38:45.160 --> 0:38:48.319
<v Speaker 3>pilot in the history of sitcoms because it still holds up.

0:38:48.360 --> 0:38:51.280
<v Speaker 3>There's so much heart. You know exactly who these characters

0:38:51.280 --> 0:38:54.800
<v Speaker 3>are from the very first scene. They're very well defined.

0:38:54.800 --> 0:38:57.120
<v Speaker 3>You know, Uncle Jesse is the honk, Joey's the funny

0:38:57.120 --> 0:39:00.120
<v Speaker 3>guy with all the voices, Danny Tanner is the clean freak.

0:39:01.360 --> 0:39:04.960
<v Speaker 3>They're just very well defined. There's funny moments, there's heartfelt moments.

0:39:05.000 --> 0:39:07.560
<v Speaker 3>I think I even cried at one point. It's got

0:39:07.640 --> 0:39:12.320
<v Speaker 3>it all. Appreciate the show like a fan does. It's great.

0:39:13.080 --> 0:39:15.279
<v Speaker 3>It's also I think funny for our fans that are

0:39:15.320 --> 0:39:19.239
<v Speaker 3>listening to Howard Tanner Rito's because they know what's They

0:39:19.320 --> 0:39:21.960
<v Speaker 3>know the show way better than we do, so they

0:39:22.000 --> 0:39:24.839
<v Speaker 3>know what's coming up. So Jody and I will be like, oh,

0:39:25.200 --> 0:39:27.480
<v Speaker 3>I wonder, why don't they just do this or why

0:39:27.480 --> 0:39:29.319
<v Speaker 3>don't they do that, And the fans like, just wait,

0:39:29.400 --> 0:39:30.000
<v Speaker 3>it's coming.

0:39:30.680 --> 0:39:31.239
<v Speaker 1>They know it.

0:39:31.360 --> 0:39:33.400
<v Speaker 3>They're so they're so excited about it. So it's been

0:39:33.440 --> 0:39:36.480
<v Speaker 3>great to get to watch it through new eyes basically,

0:39:36.920 --> 0:39:38.920
<v Speaker 3>which sounds weird because we were on the show, But

0:39:38.960 --> 0:39:41.719
<v Speaker 3>there's a lot that we don't remember or we need,

0:39:41.840 --> 0:39:44.479
<v Speaker 3>you know, reminding of, So this has been a great

0:39:44.520 --> 0:39:48.560
<v Speaker 3>way to just jog those memories, relive the good times,

0:39:48.920 --> 0:39:52.360
<v Speaker 3>cringe at the bad times and the bad fashion, and

0:39:52.440 --> 0:39:55.480
<v Speaker 3>overall just develop a great appreciation for what we put

0:39:55.520 --> 0:39:56.640
<v Speaker 3>together all those years ago.

0:39:57.640 --> 0:39:59.719
<v Speaker 1>That is awesome. That makes me so happy again. That's
