I just 275 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:12,640 Speaker 3: I didn't realize that at that age. I didn't realize 276 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 3: there were so many people behind the scenes. I just 277 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 3: saw Star Wars, Yeah I want to do this, and 278 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:22,680 Speaker 3: I assumed it was the actors that just made everything 279 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:27,360 Speaker 3: happen somehow.

But 339 00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:57,959 Speaker 3: Full House was a game changer in that, uh you know. 340 00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:02,200 Speaker 3: I liked to fly under the radar a bit, and 341 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:06,680 Speaker 3: I did so up until Friday night or Friday afternoon 342 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:12,239 Speaker 3: when I left school, and then Full House aired, and 343 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 3: then Monday, things have changed, like a lot of all 344 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 3: of a sudden, I was having difficulty flying under the radar. 345 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:25,879 Speaker 3: A lot of people wanted to talk to me about it, 346 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 3: and some are nice about it, some were not. 347 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:33,639 Speaker 1: It sounds like seventh grade. 348 00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah. At the time, I unfortunately focused too much 349 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:46,879 Speaker 3: on the on the negative, which you know, looking I 350 00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:49,000 Speaker 3: wish I didn't. But as hard as a kid, you 351 00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:50,199 Speaker 3: know ten, people will say we. 352 00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 5: Want what kid doesn't, Right, that's all you want is 353 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,400 Speaker 5: to fit in. So anything that makes you and kids 354 00:19:56,400 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 5: are middle schoolers, are you say, are they are cruel? 355 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 3: Ruthless? 356 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:04,119 Speaker 4: They should go to a little island and be you know, 357 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,640 Speaker 4: like it's they're just they're hard. 358 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 5: Yeah, and they're hard on each other. And yeah, except 359 00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:12,399 Speaker 5: middle school, seventh grade was not. That was not an 360 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:15,280 Speaker 5: easy time for I think any of us as kid actors. 361 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, it made things difficult a little bit. So, yeah, 362 00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 3: it came so fast. I didn't I didn't know how 363 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:27,479 Speaker 3: to deal with it. I didn't know how to navigate that. 364 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:29,240 Speaker 2: Uh So. 365 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 3: I think, you know, unfortunately I kind of ended up 366 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 3: distancing myself from it because I wasn't sure how somebody, 367 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:39,520 Speaker 3: you know, I didn't know how the conversation was going 368 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:41,960 Speaker 3: to go. I was skeptical and a little standoffish. So 369 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:44,440 Speaker 3: a lot of the time when people would ask are 370 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 3: you that kid, my answer would be no, and I 371 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:51,960 Speaker 3: would just try to kind of remove myself yet, right, Yeah, 372 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 3: And so I mean, you know, it was what it was, 373 00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:59,640 Speaker 3: and most of it was positive, but you know, you're 374 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 3: ten and we do it today. You know, we could 375 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:06,680 Speaker 3: post something online and you have a hundred positive comments, 376 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:08,200 Speaker 3: but you're gonna do all that one. 377 00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:12,760 Speaker 5: I literally did that the other day, all these nice 378 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,440 Speaker 5: things and one stupid person and I was like getting 379 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:16,399 Speaker 5: in the shower and I was like, why. 380 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:17,760 Speaker 4: Didn't they sit? And I was like, oh my god, 381 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 4: I'm giving that attention. 382 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:21,199 Speaker 5: Yeah, and I was like and I was like, no, 383 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:23,639 Speaker 5: all of the nice things, but yeah, we tend to 384 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:25,760 Speaker 5: focus on the negative. 385 00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:26,479 Speaker 4: And it's it is. 386 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 5: It's hard as a kid because those are like such 387 00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:31,679 Speaker 5: our formative years that it really sort of makes you 388 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:36,439 Speaker 5: it throws a wrench in like sort of normal growing 389 00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:38,720 Speaker 5: up times. 390 00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:44,040 Speaker 2: There's something particularly difficult about playing a character that's a 391 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 2: little more obnoxious. And I can relate to this because 392 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 2: people come up to you as a kid and say 393 00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:51,960 Speaker 2: you're so annoying, right, And it's hard not to it's 394 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 2: hard not to internalize that. I know, it's a compliment 395 00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:56,480 Speaker 2: if they say I'm annoying, that means I did my job. 396 00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:00,360 Speaker 2: But as a seventh grader, you're like, I don't want 397 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:02,639 Speaker 2: to hear that. I don't want to hear peers. 398 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:02,719 Speaker 1: Telling me that. 399 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:04,879 Speaker 2: So I can see why that would be more of 400 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,480 Speaker 2: a negative experience for you being even. 401 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 1: Though rusties beloved, he's a menace. 402 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 2: You know. 403 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:13,159 Speaker 3: So, oh yeah, he's an year I could. I totally understand. 404 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:17,880 Speaker 3: I'm very sympathetic to it. I would have hated that kid. Yeah, 405 00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:22,720 Speaker 3: so yeah, it absolutely made sense. I just didn't, you know, 406 00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:25,119 Speaker 3: I was at that age where I didn't quite realize 407 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 3: the repercussions of that. I thought, you know, I kind 408 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 3: of playing a villain, like that's awesome, that's super fun. 409 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 3: From from an actor's standpoint, that's great, you have a 410 00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:40,640 Speaker 3: lot to work with. I had not realized that there's 411 00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 3: a percentage of the population out there that cannot separate 412 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:50,120 Speaker 3: character on television from real life. So yeah, that was alarming. 413 00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:53,120 Speaker 3: But it's fine. Yeah, it's fine. Most people were cool, 414 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:55,200 Speaker 3: So it wasn't like it was that big of a deal. 415 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:56,920 Speaker 3: It's just, you know, it was just one of those 416 00:22:56,920 --> 00:23:01,720 Speaker 3: things that happened that I can't imagine YouTube had to 417 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:03,040 Speaker 3: go through with this. 418 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:07,679 Speaker 4: Yeah, it was definitely challenging. 419 00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:10,440 Speaker 5: But you know, it's at least for me, and I 420 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:12,639 Speaker 5: think maybe for Andrea too, because you started when you 421 00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:16,359 Speaker 5: were really little. I don't really have much of a 422 00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 5: memory of a time before. 423 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:20,840 Speaker 3: That. 424 00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:24,320 Speaker 4: I don't so it's like at sometimes it's like I never. 425 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:30,560 Speaker 5: Had I never knew what anonymity was like to lose it, yeah, 426 00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:32,680 Speaker 5: because I never really we never really had it. 427 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 2: You know, people will ask you what was it like 428 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:39,880 Speaker 2: growing up on a sitcom, and I'm like, I don't 429 00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:41,560 Speaker 2: know any differently, I don't know. 430 00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 1: I don't know. 431 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 4: I had fun. 432 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,919 Speaker 1: That was my childhood.

So well, I'm not sure 619 00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:11,959 Speaker 3: exactly how it all went down. I wasn't part of 620 00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 3: a lot of those conversations. But what I kind of 621 00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 3: suspected at the time when when when Deborah passed, I 622 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:30,600 Speaker 3: feel like they maybe we're trying out the well, is 623 00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:35,280 Speaker 3: there a place for this guy without without the mom 624 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:39,560 Speaker 3: in the scenario. So the last episode I did, I 625 00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:41,920 Speaker 3: don't think. I don't think ever was in it at all. 626 00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:44,200 Speaker 3: I was just on your baseball. 627 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:47,280 Speaker 1: Team and that's right. 628 00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:53,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, and and and and looking back, it felt like 629 00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:57,320 Speaker 3: maybe it was, you know, because could I because I 630 00:33:57,320 --> 00:33:59,160 Speaker 3: had a scene with Bob and there where he was 631 00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:04,560 Speaker 3: showing me how to you know, clean my uniform or 632 00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:07,320 Speaker 3: you know, cleaning a baseball bat or something like that. 633 00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:12,560 Speaker 3: He was doing his thing. And so you know, now, 634 00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:16,600 Speaker 3: in in hindsight, I wonder was that them kind of 635 00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:21,640 Speaker 3: seeing if there was a way that that that that 636 00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:25,759 Speaker 3: dynamic could work, you know, having having Bob have an 637 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 3: opportunity to have a you know, a sun type figure. 638 00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:33,000 Speaker 4: Does that fit in the mail influence? 639 00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:35,560 Speaker 3: Yeah? And then uh, you know, I guess it didn't work. 640 00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:38,920 Speaker 3: And and so yeah, that was the last one, but 641 00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:41,880 Speaker 3: it was it was a different episode. I didn't I 642 00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:45,560 Speaker 3: didn't do anything. You know, we went to the baseball game. 643 00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:49,040 Speaker 3: I didn't cause any fires. I wasn't, you know, I 644 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:53,200 Speaker 3: was just I was just there. And and so I thought, 645 00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 3: you know, cool, that that could work, because that was 646 00:34:56,120 --> 00:35:02,560 Speaker 3: my main question when it was presented that they were 647 00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:06,760 Speaker 3: going to get married and continue on the storyline. I didn't. 648 00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:10,640 Speaker 3: I didn't think that would work. I was all for it, 649 00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:15,560 Speaker 3: but I didn't know how how you could do that, 650 00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:17,280 Speaker 3: add that character. 651 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:21,520 Speaker 1: It would be a big change. Yeah, yeah, even change 652 00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:22,200 Speaker 1: the whole dynamic. 653 00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:25,160 Speaker 3: Yeah yeah. And I didn't I didn't want to do that. 654 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:30,960 Speaker 3: You know, the show was how it was created, and 655 00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:35,719 Speaker 3: and and that worked and this kid was a it 656 00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:37,239 Speaker 3: was a tornado. 657 00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:39,480 Speaker 5: So it really was. 658 00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:39,960 Speaker 4: He was. 659 00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:41,640 Speaker 5: He was one of those kids that you meet and 660 00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:44,160 Speaker 5: you're like, I kinda I kind of want to trick. Yeah, 661 00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:47,840 Speaker 5: like I kind of just want to just casually check it. 662 00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:50,480 Speaker 3: I mean, and especially in that at that age with 663 00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:54,600 Speaker 3: that hair, like, yeah, that's a that's a slappable child. 664 00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:59,520 Speaker 4: Your hair was amazing the way it was. It was 665 00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 4: just that slightly swept over like bowl cut. Basically it 666 00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:03,640 Speaker 4: was great. 667 00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:07,240 Speaker 3: Kind of a pre Beab, Yeah, yeah. 668 00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:09,200 Speaker 4: It was. It was a pre Beabe. Yeah, yeah, a 669 00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:12,239 Speaker 4: little bit. It was like not the shaggy sort of 670 00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:13,320 Speaker 4: emo e version. 671 00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:17,560 Speaker 3: But yeah, looking back, I'd forgotten that that that that 672 00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:24,840 Speaker 3: it was like that. 673 00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:26,319 Speaker 5: Yes, all of our moments, all of our best hair 674 00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:28,760 Speaker 5: and outfit choices for the world to see. 675 00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:32,399 Speaker 3: I mean, he definitely would have well, outside of needing 676 00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:35,799 Speaker 3: a haircut, for sure, they would have had to tone 677 00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:42,640 Speaker 3: it down so much. And and then at that point, 678 00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:48,000 Speaker 3: like what what what is he doing? Like if it's 679 00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:50,200 Speaker 3: not that character, like what do you what? What do 680 00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:51,160 Speaker 3: you end up having? 681 00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:52,759 Speaker 6: Right? 682 00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:57,440 Speaker 3: You know, the Danny character getting together with the Cindy character, 683 00:36:57,520 --> 00:37:02,799 Speaker 3: like that makes sense, But the and like he's just 684 00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:04,800 Speaker 3: got this nightmare of the child. 685 00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:09,080 Speaker 2: That right, Yeah, it's kind of yeah, yeah, that that 686 00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:11,360 Speaker 2: type of characters. I've said this before, that type of 687 00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:15,600 Speaker 2: character is better in small doses because otherwise it becomes 688 00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:17,720 Speaker 2: like the RCLE Show where it's all about this really 689 00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:21,319 Speaker 2: eccentric character. So and we do know, we did learn 690 00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:24,200 Speaker 2: that Rusty was acting out because he was mad about 691 00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:26,839 Speaker 2: his parents divorce and he wanted his mom and dad 692 00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:30,879 Speaker 2: to get back together. So I would hope that if 693 00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:33,960 Speaker 2: your character had been a part of the regular. 694 00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:35,960 Speaker 1: Cast, it would have toned down your we would have 695 00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:36,560 Speaker 1: matured out of it. 696 00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:40,120 Speaker 5: You would have not been such a nightmare. That also 697 00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:43,600 Speaker 5: was like, but that was kind of the point. 698 00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:43,920 Speaker 4: Of the character. 699 00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:46,360 Speaker 5: So yeah, you're right, It's like it would change things 700 00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:49,520 Speaker 5: quite a bit to like make him not that person anymore. 701 00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:51,560 Speaker 5: And it's like, well, then he was kind of that 702 00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:54,000 Speaker 5: was the reason he was in the episodes. 703 00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:57,480 Speaker 4: Was is like the foil to the three girls. 704 00:37:57,719 --> 00:38:02,800 Speaker 3: And then and then I started questioning, you know, so, 705 00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:08,080 Speaker 3: so this character comes in, Now, he's got to he's 706 00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:10,880 Speaker 3: got to come down significantly. He came in at eleven. 707 00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:14,200 Speaker 3: He's got to normalize at some point. And then once 708 00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:17,080 Speaker 3: he does like? What does he do? Like? Was the 709 00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:20,000 Speaker 3: audience that they liked the character because he was just 710 00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:24,400 Speaker 3: this absolute nightmare of a situation. And then what happens 711 00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:27,800 Speaker 3: when he's not Is he is? Is he relevant to? 712 00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:30,800 Speaker 3: Does he move the story along at any point? 713 00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:30,920 Speaker 2: Like? 714 00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:35,920 Speaker 3: I was concerned with that, not enough to not want 715 00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:39,759 Speaker 3: to do it, but it was definitely something on my mind, 716 00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:43,520 Speaker 3: and you know, how would that work? But here we are. 717 00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:47,120 Speaker 1: That's hey, at least you didn't have to make that decision. 718 00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:49,400 Speaker 1: That was up to the higher ups. They get to 719 00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:51,120 Speaker 1: they get to worry about that stuff. 720 00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:53,560 Speaker 2: You just got to be there and have fun and 721 00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:55,719 Speaker 2: play with all of us on set. 722 00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:58,960 Speaker 1: Yeah. 723 00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:02,920 Speaker 5: So you have been you've moved behind the camera. You 724 00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:05,759 Speaker 5: said you've been directing, right, Yeah, So have you done 725 00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:06,360 Speaker 5: a little bit of that? 726 00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:07,520 Speaker 2: Uh? 727 00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:12,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, I did. I did a lot of uh yeah, commercials, 728 00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:20,120 Speaker 3: music videos. I started to dabble with some indie film stuff, 729 00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:26,560 Speaker 3: and yeah, I really enjoy that that part of the 730 00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:32,160 Speaker 3: process and being able to kind of, you know, get 731 00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:35,200 Speaker 3: a little world going and then you know, kind of 732 00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:38,279 Speaker 3: bring it to life. And yeah, I think that's really fun, 733 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:42,920 Speaker 3: especially in that Yeah, I like the creative aspect of it. 734 00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:50,120 Speaker 3: I directed some commercials where it's like, you know, infomercial. 735 00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:53,000 Speaker 5: Commercial, the product is the star, right, it's like, don't 736 00:39:53,239 --> 00:39:56,920 Speaker 5: cover it your thumb, better not cover a word, a letter, 737 00:39:57,200 --> 00:39:59,960 Speaker 5: an edge of it. You know, Barbie's got a Barbie 738 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:00,520 Speaker 5: is the story. 739 00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:04,960 Speaker 3: There's weird, weird products in there. And I started to question, 740 00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:11,359 Speaker 3: like what am I? What am I doing? And so yeah, 741 00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:13,920 Speaker 3: so I tried to move into more of the narrative 742 00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:16,640 Speaker 3: type typework and things like that. 743 00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:21,200 Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah, commercials are commercials are an odd beast. They're there. 744 00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:26,000 Speaker 4: It's it's not like any other type of acting. 745 00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:28,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, because it's not you know, like it's you're there 746 00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:32,799 Speaker 5: in service of a product, and you know, like it's 747 00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:35,120 Speaker 5: really not about you. Yeah, unless you're you know, flow 748 00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:37,399 Speaker 5: the insurance sales, which go hurt. 749 00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:39,719 Speaker 3: Well. 750 00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:41,959 Speaker 5: Jordan, thank you so much for being on the show. 751 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:43,920 Speaker 5: It was really fun to have you on.

I mean, but I guess it. 754 00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:53,200 Speaker 4: Really it would affect it.
