Speaker 4: I think that was yeah, And then we were we
Speaker 4: went on our way to go do I don't know

Speaker 1: I think we were right before our panels, so.
Speaker 5: We yeah, we were going.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we didn't have.
Speaker 1: To you're waving goodbye, I am by you're.
Speaker 3: Doing the whole rewatch thing, so you're rewatching.
Speaker 4: We were well for us really watching because we never
Speaker 4: there's no there's no red.
Speaker 2: We never watched the show.
Speaker 3: I was curious. I was gonna ask you about that
Speaker 3: because I know Stacy and Christine are doing the same thing, yeah,
Speaker 3: step by step, because Stacy had never watched it. Yeah, right,
Speaker 3: And I was gonna ask if you guys had ever
Speaker 3: sat down and no.
Speaker 2: No, not the whole series.
Speaker 4: Sure, and we started from the beginning and have gone. Yeah,
Speaker 4: we just started season six today.
Speaker 3: Like that must have been a trip.
Speaker 2: It's been really fun, Like it's so fun.
Speaker 1: We get to make fun of each other from how
Speaker 1: we looks that everyone has seen.
Speaker 3: Yeah, did you can you see yourselves growing as actors?
Speaker 3: Did you notice that transitioning. When I was younger, like
Speaker 3: I didn't know what I.
Speaker 2: Was doing, no idea.
Speaker 3: I was just having fun, just having fun. Everything was
Speaker 3: like really big h you know, everything was a commercial read.
Speaker 3: And then and then something clicked in my teens and
Speaker 3: I went to this acting class and then I was like, oh, okay,
Speaker 3: if I bring it down a little bit, and I
Speaker 3: can notice the difference between my right the talent.
Speaker 4: Once you're like, oh, I know how to like not
Speaker 4: be as over the top or whatever. And also once
Speaker 4: you know to like stay in the scene even when
Speaker 4: the camera's not on you. That's a big one because kids,
Speaker 4: you don't you know what I mean. You say your
Speaker 4: thing and then you're like, what's going over there?
Speaker 1: You know?
Speaker 4: And that was always the I definitely noticed that as
Speaker 4: we've gone along that I get much better at like
Speaker 4: paying attention and staying in the scene.
Speaker 3: I learned because most of my stuff that I do
Speaker 3: with sitcoms, so when I was doing like single camera.
Speaker 2: Dramas totally different.
Speaker 3: Don't move, don't well, don't cut in the middle of
Speaker 3: the scene, even if you mess up, because like in sitcoms,
Speaker 3: you mess up, Aha, it's funny, and you do it
Speaker 3: and the audience loves it. But I was I remember
Speaker 3: being like yelled at by directors like don't stop in
Speaker 3: the middle of a take, right ruins a shot? And
Speaker 3: then I've never yeah, never done it since.
Speaker 1: Oh wow. So yeah, you're like done with that single
Speaker 1: cam be gone. Yeah, I'm done with that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not going to do single cam anymore. I
Speaker 3: want to do something.
Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly all No, it's a it's a it's a
Speaker 4: different animal doing those compared to others, yes, or compared
Speaker 4: to sitcoms. But and you did so many sitcoms, Jason.
Speaker 4: You you made the realms of the sitcoms. And I mean,
Speaker 4: let's see Blossom, Will and Grace just shoot me, Boy
Speaker 4: meets World. You joined the cast of Step by Step,
Speaker 4: I mean the Baywatch, Ali McBeal, were you the dancing favorite?
Speaker 1: What was your favorite as a kid?
Speaker 2: The first cap that was you.
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, and that was like, why do I have
Speaker 3: to be naked?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Alan McField worked with uh Robert Downey Jr. Uh Oh wow.
Speaker 3: He was recalibrating his career after being in a lot
Speaker 3: of trouble, so they put him on that show. So
Speaker 3: I got to share scenes with him. That was fun.
Speaker 1: Oh nice, amazing, that's so cool. And you started on
Speaker 1: a soap opera is that correct? General hospital? Yeah?
Speaker 3: First first game, first, like big it was a recurring role,
Speaker 3: but my first big thing was a general hospital.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay. See I started on Days of Our Lives
Speaker 1: when I was six, six years old, so that was my.
Speaker 3: First I think two episodes of Days of Our Lives.
Speaker 3: I played a boy in a flashback or like a
Speaker 3: dream sequence. It was someone's baby, but in the dream
Speaker 3: sequence he was like older. And then they brought me
Speaker 3: in like a year later, just to play like some
Speaker 3: kid flying a kite while this other couple is on
Speaker 3: a date. It is all on a sound stage flying it.
Speaker 1: Right, Oh right, right, so great? Yeah, say, soap opera
Speaker 1: acting is not for the faint of heart. It is
Speaker 1: like it is a grond compared to a sitcom where
Speaker 1: you're like it right on these thirty pages for the
Speaker 1: whole week.
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, thirty pages a day, yeah, everything, like it's insane,
Speaker 4: you mess.
Speaker 3: Up, you must keep going. Used to take anyway, they did,
Speaker 3: like maybe two takes if I if I maybe?
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah right, two takes and you're done. You're moving on.
Speaker 1: I don't care how bad it is. We got a
Speaker 1: movie out.
Speaker 2: It's crazy no time.
Speaker 3: I was twelve and uh, I hardly had anything to
Speaker 3: do in general hospital. But it was like it was
Speaker 3: a Christmas episode and we're sitting listening to someone tell uh,
Speaker 3: twas the night before Christmas, and my only line was uh.
Speaker 3: Then the the the the chickens didn't squawk and the
Speaker 3: donkeys didn't bray, and instead I went and the donkeys
Speaker 3: didn't bur and I was like, oh man, my god,
Speaker 3: I messed it up. And they didn't do another take,
Speaker 3: and that's the take that that ended up on the show.
Speaker 1: Whoops.
Speaker 3: The donkeys didn't bur The donkeys didn't burn because it
Speaker 3: was warm.
Speaker 2: They didn't they didn't bur burrow. They were it was
Speaker 2: almost a burrow, you know what I mean? That was
Speaker 2: you were confused, you were like, donkey burrow. It's so similar.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yea yeah.
Speaker 1: I love the Christmas episodes of soap operas. They're just
Speaker 1: so unhinged, so dramatic.
Speaker 2: Someone's getting slapped.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Carrie Brady. My I played the first Carrie Brady
Speaker 1: and she there was one Christmas where I was kidnapped
Speaker 1: by Stefano Damara brainwashed. I slipped on as I was
Speaker 1: ice skating, I slipped on the ice, fell into a coma.
Speaker 1: What Roman Brady who was.
Speaker 2: On the run? I remember him.
Speaker 1: He had to sneak into the hospital dressed as Santa
Speaker 1: just to visit me because Stephano d'amara was after him too. Anyways,
Speaker 1: a lot of drama, like the whole full circle of
Speaker 1: like soap opera.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm sure I had a media she died and
Speaker 2: came back.
Speaker 1: I never got an evil twin though.
Speaker 2: Did you remember playing character?
Speaker 5: Soap operas are the only thing more ludicrous than it
Speaker 5: was gonna say, there's soap operas, and then you take
Speaker 5: a few of those things and you do them in
Speaker 5: a sitcom, right, and then you do none of it
Speaker 5: in a sense.
Speaker 1: M It's true. I tell you, as soap opera actors
Speaker 1: and then sitcom actors, we can make anything work. The
Speaker 1: most ludicrous story.
Speaker 2: You're like, oh, make it work. I gotta make this real, right, yes, wild.
Speaker 1: So funny, so funny. Okay, So you started on general hospital, yes, anyways, yes,
Speaker 1: back to me, yes, screwing screwing up your lines on
Speaker 1: general hospitals. What came after that? Was this something you
Speaker 1: wanted to do or did your parents push you into it?
Speaker 1: What's the genesis?
Speaker 3: What it was like? It was a mild suggestion.
Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, sure, mild suggestion, okay.
Speaker 3: And yeah I grew up watching like Nickelodeon and sitcoms
Speaker 3: and there's like, yeah, that sounds like fun, okay. And
Speaker 3: when we moved to California, my mom put me in
Speaker 3: a workshop in Irvine. The workshop sent me to an agent.
Speaker 3: After twelve weeks, agents signed me immediately cutting mscot to
Speaker 3: painty and uh and immediately just start satturying on auditions.
Speaker 3: It's like, oh, this is so it's a job. Job.
Speaker 3: It's like, can't you know they throw you out there
Speaker 3: and see what sticks? And uh and sitcoms seem to
Speaker 3: be my my the thing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's your things.
Speaker 2: Isn't it crazy? How easy?
Speaker 1: Like I feel like all of us sort of fell
Speaker 1: into this business where now everyone's like how do I
Speaker 1: get an agent? Like how do I make this work?
Speaker 1: And we're like we just fell into this.
Speaker 4: Even listening to like Jeff or like the other writers
Speaker 4: and producers, like just kind of right moment, right time
Speaker 4: was a lot of it and who you know and
Speaker 4: like kind of meeting one person and then being like hey,
Speaker 4: and it's still a little bit.
Speaker 2: Of that, but now like.
Speaker 4: The the competition and having to get the followers and
Speaker 4: the social media and whatever before you even think about
Speaker 4: trying to get a show or do it.
Speaker 2: You know, it's so much.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I tell everyone, it's like, it's not it's not
Speaker 3: show talent, it's show business. Yeah, yeah, there's nothing whatever, followers,
Speaker 3: you got of this, this and that. So so Andrew

Speaker 4: I like, I remember the newer Monsters and I loved
Speaker 4: watching the old Monsters as a kid.
Speaker 2: I loved that show.
Speaker 3: I still I got a Christmas card from Butch Patrick,
Speaker 3: the original Eddie Munster, and we're friends. And it's still like,

Speaker 3: me a Christmas card. Great, Oh my gosh. I did
Speaker 3: a cartoon with Luke Skywalker.
Speaker 2: That's great.
Speaker 3: But yeah, it's great.
Speaker 4: That's been a lot of what you do is a
Speaker 4: lot of voiceover work, Yes, tons of voice tell people
Speaker 4: where they may recognize you and your voice.
Speaker 3: Most notably a Goofy movie. Okay, son, Max, me and
Speaker 3: my dad when we see power Line was great. You
Speaker 3: guys should join us next time. I love it it Vakery,
Speaker 3: Binks and hocus Pocus, a movie that surprisingly people still

Speaker 3: like those witches. Those witches are awful. They tried to
Speaker 3: kill They killed my sister right in front of me.
Speaker 4: There's a sign picture of you in my in my
Speaker 4: kid's room as Binks. Really yeah, yeah, yeah, I believe

Speaker 2: Be liked that she got a signed one for you.
Speaker 4: But yeah, she's she loves that movie and particularly thinks.
Speaker 3: Well, tell me that she can turn me into a fat, useless,
Speaker 3: contented house cut anytime.
Speaker 2: Perfect. I will let her know.
Speaker 1: How did you have to study to become a voice
Speaker 1: actor or do you just it just comes from somewhere inside.
Speaker 3: It is just from watching a lot of cartoons growing up.
Speaker 3: I mean, like, okay, shoot, I mean I remember being
Speaker 3: like a fan of Dave Dave Coolier, recognizing him in
Speaker 3: the Real Ghostbusters. And I also watched the Schlodian on
Speaker 3: cut it Out. No it was total control.
Speaker 1: Control, Yeah, total control, that was it.
Speaker 3: That was his catchphrase, cut it out. Yeah, And Frank
Speaker 3: Welker and Lorenzo music, June Foray, all these cats, And
Speaker 3: it was just something I had an aptitude for, something
Speaker 3: I definitely learned along the way. Because when I the
Speaker 3: first cartoon I did again twelve, it was Disney's Adventures
Speaker 3: of the Gummy Bears. Do you guys ever see that?
Speaker 4: Oh?
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, such a great show.
Speaker 2: I loved that show.
Speaker 3: And again I was one of a few. The character's
Speaker 3: name was Cavin, and he was a boy, a squire
Speaker 3: who was friends with the Gummy Bears. And I replaced
Speaker 3: this other kid because he went through puberty didn't sound
Speaker 3: like a little boy anymore. So they got me, uh
Speaker 3: and and it so most of everything I did was
Speaker 3: just my own natural voice. And then I by working
Speaker 3: with all these crazy, amazingly talented human beings, it's like, oh,
Speaker 3: let me try this, let me try that, and and
Speaker 3: I was able to branch off into this whole universe.
Speaker 3: It's great.
Speaker 1: Oh that's amazing. It's the best kind of way to
Speaker 1: study voices, is my working with amazing Well.
Speaker 4: You start get amazing actors playful with you, You're like, wait,
Speaker 4: maybe what can I do with my voice? Like let
Speaker 4: me try this out? What's this character that sounds like
Speaker 4: if I exaggerated.
Speaker 3: The ride home after a session is always just like,
Speaker 3: you know, me making weird noises in the car. Yeah,
Speaker 3: Frank Welker. You guys knowe who Frank Welker is.
Speaker 2: You know the name Frank was.
Speaker 3: You've heard him in everything. Frank was uh Fred and

Speaker 3: when the when the engineer is adjusting our microphones, Frank
Speaker 3: will make the sound like like an electric shock has happened,
Speaker 3: and it's so realistic it freaks him out and it
Speaker 3: always makes the engineer jump. So you go home like
Speaker 3: try to emulate that. It's like, wow, how did he
Speaker 3: do that?
Speaker 2: How does it?
Speaker 1: Yeah? What a joker? Do you get really animated when
Speaker 1: your voice acting? Do you like use lots of hands?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Yeah, to a degree. You don't want to. There's like,
Speaker 3: you know, the technical things like you don't want to
Speaker 3: like clothes, clothing movement and true stamping your feet, but
Speaker 3: you do. There is a way to to emote regurgitate.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, Oh that's so cool, amazing. I love that.

Speaker 1: And so when you it's so. You appeared in a
Speaker 1: bunch of t G I F shows, like all of

Speaker 3: you know, sitcoms and if your home audience knows, but
Speaker 3: like are mostly like in a sound stage. But the
Speaker 3: one I did, the first one we did, we went
Speaker 3: on location in San Francisco.

Speaker 1: Oh that must have been cool. That must have been
Speaker 1: really different because we go crazy when we're got.
Speaker 2: Them off the sound stage.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's never Yeah, stress level immediately increases.
Speaker 3: I remember the first thing, uh when as soon as
Speaker 3: I checked in my hotel and I didn't know any

Speaker 3: when farts, and that's exactly right.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's exactly what I was thinking.
Speaker 4: Yeah, not that I think about that often, but if
Speaker 4: I did, that would be I was shocked.
Speaker 3: And now let me ask you guys something I'm shocked,
Speaker 3: like because everyone talks about when when not just me
Speaker 3: too came about But I remember when we did Step
Speaker 3: by Step, they had an HR person come in to
Speaker 3: talk to all of us about the appropriate way to
Speaker 3: behave around each other.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, no, you have to do one of those
Speaker 4: every year. Now you gotta do a It's an HR thing.
Speaker 4: And I just sit there and come up with material
Speaker 4: the whole time.
Speaker 2: Yes, I'm like, lass, it's just.
Speaker 4: Saying stupid jokes and stuff, and everyone's sitting around me
Speaker 4: is getting in trouble.
Speaker 3: Yes, but I was shocked when I was on set
Speaker 3: and Bob Dave, everyone is just being themselves or authentic selves,
Speaker 3: And you guys were even eighteen, but there was never
Speaker 3: any like, no parents like sat them down, was like, hey,
Speaker 3: looks can they tone it down a bit?
Speaker 2: No one, but our parents had given up trussed us
Speaker 2: this point. By season eight.
Speaker 4: My mom was just like, you're only like thirteen, I
Speaker 4: don't even know, but oh yeah, no they the first
Speaker 4: few couple of seasons we were little. Usually what would
Speaker 4: happen is that they wouldn't They would forget the monitors
Speaker 4: were on, and the kids will be backstage watching, and
Speaker 4: so they'd be saying or doing something wildly inappropriate and
Speaker 4: the moms would have to be like, you can't do
Speaker 4: that or would you know it would be like a
Speaker 4: stupid joke that he and Dave would start, you know,
Speaker 4: going back and forth on and it was yeah, well,
Speaker 4: when we were little, the moms definitely they were they
Speaker 4: were there, But you guys grew up like, I guess
Speaker 4: this is it.
Speaker 3: But because you guys are you were good. You were
Speaker 3: good kids. You didn't come home and repeat what they said.
Speaker 3: You weren't not to my mother.
Speaker 2: Said, yeah, I said not to my mother. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Jody's now incorporated into a current routine.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, look, yeah, I've been writing bits since I
Speaker 4: was ten, you know, so I was just soaking it
Speaker 4: all up like a sponge.

Speaker 3: and there's a big.
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's a huge Yeah, there's a big stand up
Speaker 4: scene out there.
Speaker 3: And I haven't done I've done mostly open mics because
Speaker 3: I'm still trying to figure it out. But it is
Speaker 3: terrifying and fun and at the same time it's a
Speaker 3: great like for an actor. And I'm very much always like,
Speaker 3: you know, I like to be in control. I like write,
Speaker 3: you know, rehearsal is good, but to be in an
Speaker 3: environment where like you try it and you fail, you
Speaker 3: got to keep going.
Speaker 2: Oh I feel I did.
Speaker 4: Recently, I went up there and and my it was
Speaker 4: I smooth brained it.
Speaker 2: It was like everything just slipped right off my brain,
Speaker 2: smooth and.
Speaker 4: And so I just went, well, guys, anybody any limit
Speaker 4: in here in their mid forties going through paramenopolsey, you know,
Speaker 4: feel like they have dementia, you know, just.
Speaker 2: And I was like, I got it, that's what I
Speaker 2: got to roll. And then it happened again. I was like,
Speaker 2: oh man, I was.
Speaker 4: Like, this is but luckily it was like at a
Speaker 4: small little place and whatever.
Speaker 2: But honestly, you learn from it.
Speaker 4: I was like, oh, I was trying to do this
Speaker 4: or this was you know, I changed this or whatever,
Speaker 4: and then I went up. I had another show at
Speaker 4: the improv like two days later, and great, smooth, you know,
Speaker 4: it went really well.
Speaker 3: It's great.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I'm doing I'm doing a show.
Speaker 4: The well this will air after but uh December thirtieth.
Speaker 2: I think I know all I know right now. Nikki
Speaker 2: Glazer is one of the other comics that's doing it. Wow,
Speaker 2: who did I hear? Was it Rob Funches? Anyway, Yeah,
Speaker 2: so it's it's super fun. It's great.
Speaker 4: I do some comedy shows too that I'm taking to
Speaker 4: San Francisco's sketch Fest, and we got asked to do
Speaker 4: Netflix as a joke.
Speaker 3: So please come to Nashville, come get your person to
Speaker 3: book your Zannies, and I'll bring a bunch of people
Speaker 3: and we'll throw our panties at you.
Speaker 2: Absolutely.
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, we want to take our our show on
Speaker 4: the road, so that would be amazing.
Speaker 3: Andrea, no, no, stand up.
Speaker 1: God, no, no, I don't. I'm not good at the
Speaker 1: improv that I'm really good. I need someone to write
Speaker 1: write jokes for me. I'm really funny when someone else
Speaker 1: writes my joke.
Speaker 3: Sure, sure, yes, yeah, same, same, same.
Speaker 1: So yeah, no, I admire you guys for being able
Speaker 1: to get up there and either improv or just roll
Speaker 1: with it if you if you fail completely, keep going it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's anything Live was terrifying because you know, when
Speaker 4: that happens, it's just happening.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 1: So during season eight of Full House, did you know
Speaker 1: did you anticipate did you know who DJ was going
Speaker 1: to end up with because it was all Viper or Nelson,
Speaker 1: Viper or Nelson. Did you know at the time that
Speaker 1: she was going to pick neither of you? Or did
Speaker 1: you spoiler alert or did you kind of hold out
Speaker 1: hope because a lot of fans I think were kind
Speaker 1: of shipping Nelson and DJ to kind of be in.
Speaker 3: That's very sweet. I kind of always knew it was
Speaker 3: going to be back to Steve, just because it just
Speaker 3: makes the most sense. I mean, like story wise, like
Speaker 3: you know, long love, true love. I always joke like,
Speaker 3: oh yeah, she chose true love over money. Come on,
Speaker 3: you would have taken such good care of her.
Speaker 2: Right, how nineties of her.
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, I knew. I knew ahead of time.
Speaker 1: Okay, sure, okay, you're like all still come play and.
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was such a great character.
Speaker 4: He was just so how many episodes did you did
Speaker 4: you wind up doing?
Speaker 3: I think four, I was gonna say, I felt like
Speaker 3: four sounds about right.
Speaker 1: It felt like more. I felt like you were in
Speaker 1: the entire But maybe that's because I was in all
Speaker 1: of the storylines in the teenager lines.
Speaker 3: It wasn't DJ and then Kimmy and yeah, Nelson's like,
Speaker 3: you know, just love the one you're with. I guess right.
Speaker 1: Nelson didn't like, all right, let's.
Speaker 3: Go come on. That would have I would have that
Speaker 3: would have loved if they at least kept me on.
Speaker 3: I thought that would have been a good ship.
Speaker 2: I think because Kimmy and Nelson.
Speaker 3: Kimmy and Nelson, I think it would have been a
Speaker 3: great a great love story.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: They were both a little bit eccentric in their own
Speaker 1: different ways. But Kimmy was just he's a gold digger. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: get me on that private plane, man.
Speaker 3: Sure, And I think I think he would have understood.
Speaker 3: And but the way I played him as opposed to
Speaker 3: another guy, and the other show was that was his
Speaker 3: just sincere love, and he was just you know, the
Speaker 3: fact that he was rich was so abstract to him.
Speaker 3: It was sad that he got older, and that was
Speaker 3: all that he was he was about. But I I like,
Speaker 3: he was just really cared about this family and and
Speaker 3: yeah and DJ and and would absolutely probably had a
Speaker 3: kick hanging out with Camie, but he thought she was hysterical.
Speaker 1: Right, yeah, Yeah, it's true. You realize how how self
Speaker 1: unaware Nelson was when he just casually mentions these like
Speaker 1: his yacht, right and his mansion and all these things.
Speaker 1: You're like, normal people don't have this.
Speaker 3: Thing his world. That's normal to him.
Speaker 2: But he didn't.
Speaker 3: Think there was any conceit around it.
Speaker 4: It's like you're like, do you know what you said
Speaker 4: is insane?
Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: It's a sentence I'll never go. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Right, Well, we missed you on Fuller House. When season
Speaker 1: two we did the high school reunion kim Me and
Speaker 1: DJ's high school re union, Nelson came back, but you
Speaker 1: were unavailable. What was what was more important than full House?
Speaker 2: Come on?
Speaker 3: I believe me. I tried, but my wife says it
Speaker 3: was I turned it down for destiny because I had
Speaker 3: gotten invited to Dragon Con.
Speaker 2: Okay, Oh, and it was more.
Speaker 3: It was like it was a convenience thing. I mean,
Speaker 3: I was in my early forties going for convenience. Was like, wow, okay,
Speaker 3: I could fly to La bring all my dragon Con
Speaker 3: shit with me and then miss two days of dragon Con.
Speaker 3: Or I could just drive there. It's three hours bring
Speaker 3: all my stuff. So I chose to go to dragon Con.
Speaker 3: And if I hadn't, I wouldn't have met my wife,
Speaker 3: who we.
Speaker 1: Oh, okay, okay, So I love that.
Speaker 2: That is actually an amazing story.
Speaker 4: And now you are completely forgiven and I'm just no
Speaker 4: forgiven like this, I mean, yeah, you shouldn't.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was more important. The universe had more important
Speaker 2: plans for you. And was like no, no, well, and
Speaker 2: we understand.
Speaker 3: What did they tell you?
Speaker 4: They tell you that you hated us, and then we're like,
Speaker 4: don't ask me again. I don't want anything to do
Speaker 4: with this ship.
Speaker 3: No, sorry, Mike, pull my rides here, guys, I gotta go.
Speaker 1: Yeah boy, what did you do now, Jason? They're coming
Speaker 1: to get you.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I saw you, guys at not the first nineties con.
Speaker 3: We went to yeah, and you all and I didn't
Speaker 3: know if you guys remember me or not. Everyone was
Speaker 3: it was all of you, Dave and and Candicon. You
Speaker 3: all like walked up to me like what's going on?
Speaker 3: What we're not too good for you? I was like,
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, I'm so to see you guys. And
Speaker 3: I love you guys. I would love to have played
Speaker 3: with you guys. Absolutely.
Speaker 1: Ah well we loved you too, and so it was
Speaker 1: so exciting to see you again. What how do you
Speaker 1: decide who to hang out with at the cont Like, right,
Speaker 1: because you've been on so many sitcoms, you could literally
Speaker 1: have a booth at every single show's table, So how
Speaker 1: do you decide?
Speaker 3: Do you remember that first ninety because it was it
Speaker 3: was it was everybody on TJF. It is the Faily
Speaker 3: Matters crew is a full house crew, and it was
Speaker 3: like a high school cafeteria, like everyone just sort of
Speaker 3: sat with.
Speaker 2: Their yeah yeah, yeah, yeah right, like I.
Speaker 3: Want to see that yeah yeah, but at the after
Speaker 3: but at the bar, at the hotel that we don't
Speaker 3: tell everyone where it is. It's like this this purgatory
Speaker 3: of actors that all together, and I imagine like people
Speaker 3: just you know, going downstairs, having no idea there's a
Speaker 3: convention going on, walking the bar and seeing like, oh
Speaker 3: there's the boy meets roll Cast and there's Christopher Lloyd and.
Speaker 2: Blows their mind. They're like, what if this is what
Speaker 2: the men?
Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, yeah. I remember seeing Christopher Lloyd I'm such
Speaker 3: a fan of and he was waiting for the elevator.
Speaker 3: I was like, mister Lloyd, h and he didn't acknowledge me.
Speaker 3: I was like, oka, he probably doesn't don't want to
Speaker 3: be bothered. But and then I realized, you know, he's
Speaker 3: he's just old. And he fondly turned to me and
Speaker 3: I I was like, you have a good night, and
Speaker 3: he went you too, And my girlfriend and I looked at
Speaker 3: each other like it sounds just like him.
Speaker 1: It's right, right, that's amazing, so legendary, it is.
Speaker 4: It is legend to I love going to the conventions,
Speaker 4: like our fans for the full House.
Speaker 2: Fuller House fans are so lovely.
Speaker 3: Yes, you guys are a fandom, like people were still
