Hey Dude the Nineties called with Christine Taylor and David Lasher.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Hey everybody, welcome back to Hey Dude, the Nineties called podcast.
I'm one of your co hosts, David.
Speaker 1 (00:11):
I'm David. You're so formal. You didn't say your name.
I mean sorry, I'm Christie. But I like the way
you say welcome to Hey dude. The night is called podcast.
I like it. It's very formal.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
Oh, because I told you you had a good intro voice. No, No,
now you're telling me I have.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
A good interest. You just have a like you just
go right into it. It's good. Have you ever listened
to Dak Shepherd's podcast, My god, you know what's so crazy? No?
And that. I just had this conversation with my brother Brian, who,
by the way, shout out today's his birthday. Even I
was gonna say happy birthday to Brian?
Speaker 3 (00:50):
What how can you were not?
Speaker 4 (00:52):
I was? I came up on my Facebook I wish
him happy birthday. But my gosh, that's so fun. I
was going to say, how do you have you got
my birthday wrong? You wish me a happy birthday last week?
I was going to bring up that story too, very embarrassing.
My calendar popped up and said Christine Taylor's birthday. So
I wrote Christine a whole message.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
I hope it's a.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
Great day, happy birthday, and a year ahead, and she
goes my birthdays in July.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
I said, I think this might have been meant for
someone else, like I thought, maybe it was another Christine
that you know. And then you showed me your calendar
screenshot and you said, my computer's never wrong, and I said,
are you sure? Yeah, I'm sure. But I did take
your good wishes for a good day and a good year,
(01:41):
and so far so good.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Well, so it was an early birthday wish. But happy
birthday to Brian Taylor.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
Yes, I mean for the listeners, this his birthday will
have passed. So if anybodybody's out there listening, who knows
Brian Taylor, his birthday already passed. But yes, today's birthday.
And yeah, I am very excited because and we'll talk.
(02:10):
You can talk about our guests, because I know she's
a friend of yours. But my cousin, my first cousin,
Kevin Taylor, is I think her officially her number one fan.
And I got a message last year from my maybe
last year or the year before from my aunt saying,
do you happen to know Candace everyone? Because it's Kevin's
(02:38):
birthday and I thought it'd be amazing to get a
signed autograph or a picture or something for Kevin for
his birthday. And I felt terrible. I responded. I was like,
I don't know her at all, Like I have no connection.
Oh really, you never met Candace? No? No, wow, how
is that possible? If we had met me, maybe it
(03:00):
was at an event or something, but I didn't. It's
that weird thing where you're like, I don't want to
just randomly reach out to a rep about somebody who's
like a cousin.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
Of a thing.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
It never it always sounds lame. And so now I
get to meet her and tell her how much my
cousin loves her, and then maybe even when all is
said and done, have a have a contact to get
a signed picture from her at some point, and I'll
(03:29):
be like that perfect. Yeah, I'll be like the star player.
I'll be his favorite cousin from this moment forward. He
also actually happens to be like a huge my cousin,
a big, huge, hey dude fan. And they went to
the tank AVERTI dude ranch years ago to just just
(03:51):
to see like the old abandoned sets and so so
you know, so my.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
Cousin's cousin, is he much younger than you?
Speaker 1 (03:58):
He's he's about ten years younger than me.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
So he must have been so psyched that you were
his cousin during those years.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
Yes, he was, he was.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
They were.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
They didn't tell me they were psyched about it. I
found it out years later. But how are you all
over there?
Speaker 2 (04:18):
We are all good. The rain stopped finally.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
You know, we have two kids away, and you know,
you know, we only have one kid, Chelsea's at home,
and we just had so much fun with her. We
saw the uh, the Bob Marley movie the other night.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Have you seen that? No? I no, I haven't seen.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
My gosh, it was so intense, so amazing. And we
did some hikes.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
You know.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
We just really had a nice long weekend. Chelsea had
two days off of school Friday and Monday, and we
really just hung out a lot.

Thank you.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
You just think you're the greatest. And I was telling
David before before we logged in that my cousin, my
first cousin, who's about ten years younger than me, like,
is so madly in love with you. He's very happily
married with kids, but he has loved you from his youth.
And I'm not kidding. Like a year ago, my aunt
(06:04):
reached out to me. It was like, do you have
any connections? Do you think we could get assigned autograph?
I was like, I don't know, No, I don't have
any connections at all. And now look now, now I
have a connection, maybe connection.
Speaker 5 (06:16):
Maybe you'll get us and whatever you want you.

But I'm really happy to meet you.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
It's such a pleasure. And what's your Let's talk about
you two. What is your history? How do you and
David know each other? I want all the dirt.
Speaker 5 (06:40):
We did a TV do you remember, David?
Speaker 2 (06:43):
Oh, Candice, I looked up on YouTube last night. I
think it's called No. I know, it's called Kids in
the Woods. Yeah it is Z right. It was a
play on like boys.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
I no, it's not no, wait, what was this a
TV movie? It was a TV movie.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
It was directed by Neil Israel who he had done
the movie Bachelor Party, you remember with Tom Hanks, of course,
and he was married to Amy Heckerline. But it was
Candice and I and it was a whole like slew of.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
It was all like the actors that were either on
T G I F or whatever shows. I think Tachi
on Ali was in it as Fonzo Alfonso is.
Speaker 5 (07:30):
It's hilarious.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
I love that it was. It was a kids k
I d Z in the Woods w O O d
Z as well. Both were z's No. I think it
was the Woods was a z I just looked it up.
I have to see this.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
I have a scene pulled up, but I think we'll
just maybe post it. I can't show it to you.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
It's funny.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
We were in Vancouver for a summer during our hiatus.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
Yeah, I remember that. That was like the first movie. Oh,
maybe I'm getting them mixed up. No, I'm not. That
was the first movie that I went to Vancouver on
my own. Like, my mom didn't accompany me because I
think I was seventeen maybe, and so I was like, mom, like,
(08:18):
can I be an adult please? And she let me.
Speaker 5 (08:23):
I think we got into a little bit of trouble.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
It was so much fun.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
I think, Yeah, listen, I've done movies in Vancouver during
the winter and it's rainy and gross, But like that,
our movie, it was beautiful.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
It was.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
What is the premise of this? Is it just kids
romping kids?
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Then that Dave Thomas from SCTV was the lead in
this movie.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
No, who's the girl from Newhart? Julia Duffy, Oh my god,
like Duffy geniuses. Oh, such comedic geniuses.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
I don't think i've seen that movie since it aired.
I think I watched it once back in the day,
I couldn't even tell you the premise.
Speaker 5 (09:07):
I really don't know really in a stamp what's happening.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
If you go on YouTube, which I did last night,
you can pull up there's so many clips of it,
and YouTube is incredible, like they find everything. But I
think it was some kind of summer trip with students.
And then Candae's character kept I had a girlfriend, but
she kept coming after me, and I was so rude
(09:34):
to her. I like, literally, I got to show you
a clip where she's like, can she said, I sit
behind you in math class? And then I go, oh, yeah,
you have that smell and you're like, oh, it's a
new perfumer.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Oh no, and then you insult her. The insult her
like over and over again. Terrible. Yeah, teenage boys, teen
it was this the nineties. Let's just get let's get
to it. This like early nineties.
Speaker 3 (10:01):
Yeah. It was yeah, yeah, this was early nineties for sure.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
It was fun.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
It was so I mean, Darius McCrary what a great guy.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
I loved him.
Speaker 3 (10:10):
Yeah, we had fun.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
Candice. I did an episode of Full House and we
had it.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
Was gonna say, I feel like there's a net We
did some other stuff too.
Speaker 5 (10:27):
I'm like, which episode were you on a full House?
Speaker 2 (10:31):
I know because we had Jody on and you and
I are about to go on a date or I
don't you're helping me. It was called take my Sister Please,
and you were trying to get us your own bedroom
or something, and like, I'm in your room and we're
doing homework and I invite you out to I'm about
(10:51):
to ask you out on a date, and then Jody
comes in and starts hazing me, like trying to sabotaze
the date.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
My gosh, I'd have to go back and look at
that episode.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Yeah, it's random, but I remember being so nervous. It
was one of my first jobs, like Christine after Hey dude,
it was one of my first network roles in Candice
and everyone there were so seasoned and so calm, and
I was so freaking nervous.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
Wait did we do the movie first or do the
full House episode first?
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (11:24):
No, the full House thing was way way before the movie?
Speaker 3 (11:27):
Oh way before? Okay, Like, how young was I dating
on Full House?
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Man must have been. I mean it was high school years.
But yeah, you were super cool to work with and
it was nice. But you guys were so seasoned and
so calm about everything, and you know, when it's one
of your first guest stars, you're so like, oh my god,
am I doing this right?
Speaker 5 (11:52):
I know.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
It's when you grow up in that, especially on a sitcom,
when there's a live audience, it just feels natural. It's
what you do. And you know, we did Full House
for eight years, so you become accustomed to it. But
once I was finished with that show and then worked
later and would go onto other people's set, whether it
(12:15):
was a single camera or audience, you then know what
it feels like to be the guest star. And it's
so scary, isn't it.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
Right, It's the worst. It's the worst, no matter no
matter what your resume is, no matter how much work
you've done or how much you've earned your spot there,
you feel like such an outsider.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
Right. Yeah. I did an episode of Boy Meets World
and it was probably one or two years after Full
House ended, so I.
Speaker 5 (12:48):
Think I was like nineteen or something, nineteen or twenty.
But same thing. I'm like, I've been doing this my
whole life.
Speaker 3 (12:55):
Everyone is great on that set, but once we got
to the tape night and the audience filled in. I
was like, I don't remember lying, I don't know what
I'm doing.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
I'm not funny, I suck. I just nerve inner.
Speaker 3 (13:09):
Fat, your nerves get the best of you.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
So was was full House? I mean, first of all,
just coming from you know a family, like you know
your brother, and was full House your first big job?
Were you working as a Were you doing commercials when
you were much younger and sort of on the circuit,
and then full House was the big thing?
Speaker 3 (13:31):
Yes, exactly.
Speaker 5 (13:32):
I was a veteran by the time I got full House.
I'd already been in the business for five years.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
I had done, like, I had done quite quite a
few commercials, and then I had done.
Speaker 5 (13:44):
I mean I was on I was on a show
called Like.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
Saint Elsewhere, which was like a really popular like before. Yes, yes, yes,
I was like like a I played someone's daughter on that.
So I was on several episodes that I was on
an episode of the show named Alice that was like
one of my favorites as a kid. Do you guys
remember that Mel in the Diner.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
Of mel Kiss My Grits, wasn't it Kiss My Grits?
Speaker 5 (14:12):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (14:13):
I think I was five or six and I was.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
On it ol I loved that show.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
Yeah, and then was on a couple of episodes of
Growing Pains, my brother show before Full House. So I
did have quite a bit of an experience before full House,
but that was the big breakout role.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
But Growing Pains was before full House.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
Right, Yeah, it started I think two years. It might
have been three, but I think two years before Full House.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
I got to just tell you that my goal in
life was to be your brother.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
Oh, I remember, David, I remember this. You were so
into Kirk during it. You were like, he is the
fun like he has watched what he's doing. Look at
what he's doing. I remember you showing me the series,
which we'd all seen, but you were like, he is
a genius what he doing him? Because he was playing me.
Speaker 2 (15:03):
I related to that character, the charming guy that just
gets out of everything because he's got you know, he
knows how he uses his charm. But he and Michael J.
Fox at the time. I mean, I would record those
episodes of Growing Pains and I'd watch them over and
over when we had VCR tapes, and my goal in
life was to be a sitcom star like your brother.
(15:26):
He was so freaking good. And he brought us so
much joy from that show and then for you to
follow in his footsteps. I mean, what was it like
seeing your brother become a huge star like that.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
I mean, it was it was cool, it was weird,
it was like all of all of the above. You know,
our family, we weren't really a show business family. So
because we lived in La we started auditioning. It was
like someone's like, oh, your kids are cute. Here's my
(16:01):
agent's picture. And my mom was like, Okay, we'll try this,
and we kind of fell into the business. So it
was like pretty crazy that my brother then got this
sitcom and then was like on magazine covers with Michael J.
Fox and Jason Bateman, and he was like, you know
this heart throb person. So at home, it's like that's
(16:23):
my that's my dorky brother.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
Yeah, I love him to all.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
The girls that are like buying pillowcases with his face
on it.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
And plastering the magazine covers on their wall.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
We legit thought like at one point of the height
of my brother's stardom on the show, we had turned
part of our garage in the back to a makeshift
fan club that we make. Legit not only did we
have a like letter openers and we're opening all of
(16:57):
this family like thousands and it's like ten thousand letters
a week. But then we would have like a little
mailer that we would send out to people, and like
we were like my two sisters and I. We would
clamp buttons that had my brother's face on them, and
we would like send a photo with a.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
Button to Oh my goodness, oh that you guys were
doing it on your own.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
We were, we were.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
There were companies I'm sure that did those sorts.
Speaker 3 (17:26):
Of things, but you know, back in the eighties, and
it was like my mom cared about the fans so much,
my mom and my dad and they felt that the
responsibility to reply and right, you know, and then at
one point it just got so overwhelming. But yeah, we
were like little child laborers in the back making buttons
with my brothers.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
Oh that is so funny.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
I love that you gave respect everyone that sent a
letter though. That's so cool.
Speaker 1 (17:51):
Yeah, So, I.
Speaker 3 (17:53):
Mean it was it was fun. It was fun in
that regard, and it was fun to see my brother
just light up the screen and people loved the show.
And you know, I think my favorite memories were going
to the set of Growing Pains every week because they
taped usually I think on a Thursday or Friday night.
(18:14):
So that was so exciting to go and watch every
live episode with my sisters and watch my brother. It
was really fun. And then you know it was and
then I was on i think three episodes of Growing Paints,
which was.
Speaker 5 (18:29):
Super cool before I got DJ Tanner.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
Wow, so you were well versed and trained by the
time you got the role on Full House. You watch
your brother, you acted on the show.
Speaker 3 (18:42):
I mean yeah, I mean I had a little experience,
so it didn't feel I wasn't I wasn't scared of
it at all. I'm like, oh, I've already done this
and hopefully this will be fun. But you know when
you get when you even get.
Speaker 5 (18:56):
A pilot, you never know what's going to happen to them.
Speaker 1 (18:59):
And that was so true with Full House.
Speaker 3 (19:02):
Everyone's like, Okay, John Stamos is here, so this has
a good chance of getting picked up and going, but
you just kind of never know.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
Wait, John was coming off of a general hospital. He
was yeah, yeah, oh yes, so he was the star.
He was the big star to carry the show at
the first at the beginning exactly.
Speaker 5 (19:25):
I didn't know when I got when I booked the role.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
We had our first table reading, and I had no
idea who was associated in this sitcom, like at all.
I think we knew that the creator was Jeff Franklin
and that was it. So I kept asking my mom,
like on the drive over, who's in this?
Speaker 5 (19:44):
Who's in this?
Speaker 3 (19:45):
And she's like, I don't know. So when we wait
and you were how old?
Speaker 1 (19:48):
How is we at this point? Okay, okay, so so
you're asking your mom.
Speaker 3 (19:53):
Yeah. When we got into the room and there were
so many people because it was all the writers, the producers,
the directors, the network, and.
Speaker 5 (20:01):
It's just a lot of faces and you get really.
Speaker 3 (20:03):
Scared, like, oh, you know you're gonna read the script,
but it's intimidating. But they're sitting across the table from
me was was Blackie from General Hospital.
Speaker 1 (20:14):
So I was oh my gosh.
Speaker 3 (20:16):
I was only ten, but my sisters were huge General
Hospital fans, so they were in love with him, and
all I could do, even more than just doing the
read through, I just wanted to get home to my
sisters to tell them I'm doing a TV show with Lackey.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
Oh my gosh, and was that for you? That was
it that like you knew you had at that point
you had gotten the part and you or you that
was that was part of the audition was with So
that was after I booked it.
Speaker 3 (20:47):
I auditioned a couple of times, but that was I
booked it, and then we had our first table reading
and then shot our pilot like a week later.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
Let's just talk about the experience of Full House. I mean,
this show is so iconic in it like thirty years later,
it's still people love it. But like, did you know
there was something special? And what was it like, you know,
being in that experience.
Speaker 3 (21:20):
I'm still in the entertainment industry today because that was
such a good experience, Like could not have had better
people around, especially being a kid. And you know, I'm
sure you've you're talking to people on the show, but
we hear like so many stories that a lot of
(21:40):
kids don't have good experiences, and we all felt so
just so blessed, such a such a gift to all
of us that we genuinely had family people around and
everyone was in it to create a fun show and
do a good job. And at least that was my
perspective as a kid. But I think that if you
(22:03):
talk to anyone from the show, they will tell you
the same thing. And it just felt magical what Jeff
Franklin created, who he cast on the show. We all
just hit it off and it was just there was
so much love for eight years on that show between
all of us.
Speaker 5 (22:21):
I was like except for maybe John and.
Speaker 3 (22:23):
Bob like season one and then they like figured it out,
but they you know, John talked about that all the time,
but it was so it was just so it was
so good. It was so good and it's why I
still love doing it today.
Speaker 2 (22:37):
Did you feel pressure though, because we listen, we had
Jody and we had Andrea on right, Christine and yes, yeah,
they both said that you guys were so protected and
so taking care of on that set. But we've had
other actors on that were younger who felt a lot
of pressure. So you know, if I don't get to
laugh or they're going to write out my you know,
(23:00):
I'm not going to get you know, the storylines. Did
you ever feel that, like like I I'm not getting
my laughs or the pressure of that.
Speaker 3 (23:09):
No. No, And I've heard those stories too, and that
like it it hurts me internally so much to hear
those types of things.
Speaker 5 (23:20):
I think I at least.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
Didn't never felt that way, but I never had anyone
speak to me that way. No one ever came up
to me and is like, hey, you need to step
it up, or you need to make sure you get
this laugh. Like, we were never spoken to by anyone
on the show like that that had you know, authority
in terms of producers or a director. So it was
(23:44):
all very encouraging. And they also set us kids up
well in that we had a great dialogue coach that
would help work with us, and so we were you know,
I'm sure Jody already talked about this, but Jody was like,
Jody knew everybody's lines at five years old every episode like.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
It was a firecracker.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
Yeah, it was awesome, but like we were all even
as kids, we were all on top of our game
and half the time everyone was laughing because we were
way more professional than John, Bob and Dave.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
You know, yes, that is I think Andreas said the
same thing. She was like, we as kids, we were
the ones who were like following all the rules we
do exactly busting each other up. Yeah, we say like
we have school to do too.
Speaker 3 (24:37):
We're doing two jobs here, so come on, people, let's
make this work.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
Like and then you worked with you know Michelle, I
mean Mary Kay Ashley. Yeah, I mean I did a
show with them later. I played their uncle in a
show called Two of a Kind on Ages. Yeah, for
one season. But I mean they were they were infants, right.
Speaker 3 (24:58):
I know, yeah, I think they were like nine months
old when they started the show until they were eight
or almost nine.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
So how would you shoot their you know, their lines
or their reactions or whatever you would?
Speaker 1 (25:13):
Was that done separately?
Speaker 3 (25:16):
We so we had like two really heavy tape days,
so we would pre.
Speaker 5 (25:21):
Tape before the live audience day.
Speaker 3 (25:22):
We would pre tape a day before, and all the
pre taping was all the kids stuff and particularly any
baby stuff or animal, you know, comment the dog stuff.
So we would always make sure that we had that
in the can. But yeah, it was like Adria later
was the like baby coach or baby Wrangler. It's such
(25:45):
a weird name, and you know, it's like it's like
when you go get your portrait taken, there's someone behind
the camera and they're just got little toys and they're
like trying to make a baby, like, that's what Adria
would do. And then as they got older and they
were started to have lines on the show, she would
just like tell him you got it, dude, You got it, dude,
(26:06):
and they would Peter. And so we would do a
lot of pre taping the day before so that when
it came time to the audience, if we didn't get
it on audience night, we already knew we had it.
Speaker 5 (26:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
I did a movie a few years ago where they
were it was there was a baby involved, and it
was just so fun and it was a low budget movie,
so it wasn't like you didn't have that that wrangler
person too, but it was the mom and of course that,
but it was really about like, Okay, which twin is
(26:43):
in a better mood at this moment, can and can
handle it? And then they were sort of always sort
of both on call of like nope, not working for
this one, we're putting the other one in and exactly
it was a fascinating thing to witness and you know,
like for the mom that pained me so as a
mom too, I just thought, oh my god, you know,
(27:05):
just like I wanted so much for these these twins
to to do you take it home for her because
you could just see her. She's like, oh, please do it,
please do it just right, that's right.
Speaker 3 (27:17):
I know nobody's going to get outside the pressure as
a mom. No, like you hope your child performs well.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
We asked Jody and Andrew this too. But I'm always
so fascinated because that age for you to start the
show at ten and finish at what seventeen or eighteen? Yeah,
I mean that is your those years. They're so up
on it. Everything changed, Your body's changing, You're changing your
(27:48):
likes and dislikes and boys and all of it. And
how how were you able to manage that as someone
who was on a huge hit television show and also
just you know, being a teenage girl, like just going
through those changes.
Speaker 5 (28:04):
I mean, looking back, well, we could have, but there's certainly.
Speaker 3 (28:11):
Things that I can look back on and it's like, oh,
or you know, I'm glad that my own daughter hasn't
had that some of the pressures or experiences. And again
mine were really good, and like I have a really
great supportive family. So does Andrea, so does Jody. So
(28:32):
I think that is another huge reason why the three
of us are still working and love this because that
is like a huge component to have your family or
whoever your primary caretakers are in your life to really
be looking out for you and your best interest and
not to say yes to everything so that your career
(28:57):
can succeed.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
And we always about the next thing. And I think
you're absolutely right. For a lot of kid actors, it's
really the parents are driving. You know. We've talked to
people where that was the case, where the parents were
making the decisions and there was not a lot of
agency or discussion. But when you have, you know, family
members that are all about just what is best for
(29:21):
you for my child in this moment, and let's enjoy
it for what it is. And that's what it really
sounds like you all had exactly.
Speaker 2 (29:29):
Kendice, Were you ever enrolled in a in a regular
school or you just did completely as Yeah.
Speaker 3 (29:36):
So I did a combo of both. When we first started,
I remember I still went to like sixth grade, and
then I still wanted to I was going to junior
high school and I wanted to have that experience, that
real experience. So I was taking some classes in the
(29:56):
morning and then I would go to work and then
and when we'd go we're down for on hiatus the
extended rest of the school year. I would go back
and then take all of my classes. But that proved,
Like by eighth eighth grade, it was horrendous. I got
really bullied by the kids in the school because I
(30:17):
was on like a TV show that everyone watched, and
yet they just all made fun of me.
Speaker 5 (30:26):
And it was like, so it was so awful.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
Oh, I sort of thought the opposite, that everyone would
want to be your friend.
Speaker 1 (30:32):
And you know, you think, but I don't think kids
at that age, I think there's jealousy. It's it's the
feeling of like, oh, this person, she thinks she's better,
so much better than us, And it was just it's
that preteen and all they can the only way to
manage that is by making fun of the person, Like
because you're the outsider, we're not going to like you
(30:54):
because you're trying.
Speaker 3 (30:57):
That was exactly it. So by ninth grade and above,
I was pretty much just tutored on the set and
then you know, finish my last year of high school
still doing the show.
Speaker 1 (31:08):
Wow, those are some important years. But I know, and
when so when the show finished and it was like okay,
high school graduation. I'm you know, this next chapter of life?
What was did you know you wanted to keep going?
Did you feel like you wanted to do something else?
(31:30):
You know, we talked to Mayam who you know on
bloss It. She really wanted to go to college. She
wanted to have that experience. You know, what, where were
you at at that point?
Speaker 5 (31:42):
I was so happy to finish high school.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
I was like, no, no more school school, no more academics.
I still hear you.
Speaker 3 (31:53):
I was not that that girl. I was not not
the academic one. So the interesting part for me is
that I met my husband during the last year of
the show, and I was only eighteen years old. So we.
Speaker 5 (32:11):
It was like it just was.
Speaker 3 (32:13):
It was prime for me in that it couldn't I
couldn't have made the transition any better because we had
this We got engaged, like you know, we dated for
a year, got engaged, and so once the show ended,
I felt like, oh my goodness, I'm going to start
this new journey, like a new season of life in
(32:36):
that I'm going to be married and have a family,
have a family maybe, and I still wanted to work,
Like you know, at eighteen years old, I'm thinking, well,
of course I'm still going to work and do all
of that at the same time.
Speaker 5 (32:49):
And then and then realized like.
Speaker 3 (32:51):
Oh, can't do all the things all at the same time.
A some some things have to just you know, you
got to set aside. But so the transition really was
easy in that I wanted to keep working, but I
met my husband, got we got married, and then when
we did start a family, which was like two years
(33:12):
after we got married, I just realized I actually didn't
want to work so I could be home more with
my kids to raise them. But it worked out pretty well.
We've been married twenty seven years.
Speaker 1 (33:25):
Congratulations. I mean that's really it wasn't like high school sweethearts,
but it almost is because it was like right out
of high school that period of time, and.
Speaker 3 (33:35):
A really any TV TV person could get that high
school experience and get married like he is my high
school sweetheart, because neither of us really had a high
school experience. He was a pro hockey player, so he
was on a different journey too. Yep.
Speaker 2 (33:50):
The sports was how did you guys meet at when
you're eighteen?
Speaker 3 (33:55):
Dave Coolier introduced us at a charity hockey game. Oh yeah, awesome, Yeah,
totally funny. And then we went on our first date
and I the very next day after we met, and
Lori Laughlin was my wing girl because I was like,
he asked me to go to lunch. I've never been
on a date with someone I don't know. Will you
(34:18):
please go with me?
Speaker 1 (34:19):
Oh? No, way, she went date.
Speaker 3 (34:22):
So Laurie went with me, and VAL's brother was there too,
So the four of us went on a date. But
I mean, talk about full circle with my full House family,
like they between Dave and Laurie and Bob and John,
like just being protective parents' uncles whatever you want to
call it. There, I mean a huge part of my
(34:43):
life in that next season of my life, even just
as the show ended.
Speaker 2 (34:48):
Oh my gosh, life imitating artists. So I mean, it's
really crazy. I mean Dave played the role of your
real uncle introducing you to your husband. I mean, yeah,
that's so cool. Yeah, So I want to get into
all of you. You know, you've written several best selling books.
But how did the Fuller House come about? Well, our
(35:13):
house was amazing. I'm so I wish it hadn't ended.
It was such a fun time in life.
Speaker 3 (35:20):
Oh my goodness, it was you know, one of these
crazy thoughts because we were one of the first shows
that came back.
Speaker 1 (35:28):
Right and probably we talked to Jody.
Speaker 2 (35:31):
You helped Netflix quite a bit, I think at that time.
Speaker 1 (35:34):
Yeah, reboots were not a thing.
Speaker 5 (35:37):
No all, No, we were one of the first.
Speaker 3 (35:40):
And I don't really I don't remember all of the details,
but it was like Jeff Franklin, John Stamos, and Bob Boyette,
who was the original I mean they were the Bob
Boyette and Jeff were the original creators and production company
that did Full House. And they were like, we're going
(36:02):
to pitch this. Are you guys all interested in doing this?
So they talked to me, Jody, Andrea, you know, Dave, Bob, Lori, everyone,
and we are like yeah. And so Jeff came up
with the concept of fuller House, which was basically just
flipping full House in that now I married, my husband's
passed away, I've got three boys, and I need my
(36:25):
best friend and my sister to move in to help
me raise them.
Speaker 5 (36:28):
And it was like brilliant.
Speaker 3 (36:32):
And so we went around and pitched to every network
and they all said no, like, we don't think people
remember the show, even though the show hadn't been off
the air in thirty years, but they were like, no,
I don't think there's enough fan base out there anymore.
All this kind of stuff. And then it was our
(36:53):
very last pitch. We went to Netflix and a couple
of the execs really liked it and they were like
pulling for us, and they pushed it forward and they said.
Speaker 1 (37:08):
Yes, so but and I think Andrea told the story
that like, because it was the last pitch and you
guys had pitched it, it was like everyone was sort
of like, oh my god, like it's so non into
it at that point because you'd been said no to
so many times, and they were like all kinds of
like she said, I think like I was went to
the wrong place, or like there was all sorts of
(37:30):
confusion and no one was caring at this point because
it was going to be a no again. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (37:37):
Yeah, because it was Jody Andrea and me, John Stamos,
Jeff Franklin, and there were a couple other executives there
in the room, but like we were going out and
pitching this and pitching this, so it wasn't like they
just knocked on the door and were like, hey, want
to do a full house.
Speaker 2 (37:55):
Are you guys went into pitch meetings as an entire
cast as an Yes, that's so cool.
Speaker 3 (38:01):
Yes we did, and so yeah, so it was like yeah,
by Netflix, we were like, okay, good, this was a
good try. This was this was really fun to get
together and hang out for like the last month, right
doing light these pitch meetings. But we figured it was
over and then Netflix gave us the green light, and
that became some of the best years of my life,
(38:24):
which is still really recent although we you know, it
ended in twenty twenty and thankfully in the sense that
the world changed after twenty twenty, so we just kind
of we ended the show right before the pandemic had hit.
But man, it was so much fun to get back together,
like to get the band back together. It was I
(38:45):
would do that job with those people every day for
the rest of my life if I could.
Speaker 2 (38:50):
Was it the same same soundstage, the exact same thing.
Speaker 3 (38:53):
Yes, yes, that is just crazy.
Speaker 1 (38:57):
You're indipitous, like it is, just do you couldn't I
write it more perfectly?
Speaker 5 (39:02):
I know, truly truly a gift.
Speaker 1 (39:15):
I'll tell you.
Speaker 2 (39:15):
I want to just talk about Bob Sagat for a
minute because I was friends with him for a long
time and we had many mutual friends, but I hadn't
talked to him in a long time. But my daughter
Chelsea had her camp friends coming to visit from New York,
and so I reached out to Bob. To our friend
Mike Young, he said, can you get us tickets to
(39:36):
Fuller House? And not only did he get them tickets,
he got them onto the stage and to meet all
you guys. And he was one of the sweetest people
I've ever known. And I didn't know him as well
as you obviously, But yeah, talk about your relationship with Bob,
because it's just his passing was devastating to everybody.
Speaker 3 (39:56):
Yeah, it really, it really was. Yeah, Bob was one
of one of my best friends. He was one of
the closest people to me in my life, and so
the loss was so great and so difficult. But he
everything that you said, Bob was so generous. He was
(40:17):
so loving, so kind, and he if you asked Bob
to do anything, he'd be like, yep, yep, I'll make
it happen and go above and beyond. And it didn't
matter who you were, how well he knew you, if
he sat next to you, on an airplane or whatever.
Like Bob was just that guy that would just want
to make people happy because it you know, because it does.
(40:39):
It feels good to be generous, it feels good to
be kind, and it changes someone's day.
Speaker 5 (40:44):
And Bob just always knew that. And I think Bob
Bob just appreciated because he had.
Speaker 3 (40:51):
Bob had a lot of loss in his life. There
was a lot of heartbreak in his life. So he
appreciated all the moment in his life, big and small,
and wanted to help bring that joy to other people
in their their lives.
Speaker 1 (41:07):
So beautiful and what I you know, we I shared
this before, but he from the couple of times that
I met him, But he loved my mother in law
and spoke at her at her funeral, and but they
shared such an irreverent sense of humor. And that was
what I think was so funny, is because Bob was
(41:29):
on full House, which was so family and so clean
cut that you behind the scenes, Yeah, and my mother
in law, who had the same kind of you know,
body mouth, that was like they would have sort of
swapped insults and and but it was all love and
it was so just he just so so funny so funny. Yeah,
(41:53):
I know what a special relationship, Yeah, that you love
to have with him? Yeah, I have a crazy question.
I don't mean to say this is a question that
is a total segue, and I feel like we've had
guests on the show before who have done this, But
I need to ask about doing Dancing with the Stars.
Speaker 3 (42:15):
I love talking about Dancing with the Stars because.
Speaker 1 (42:18):
I'm obsessed with it. I feel like it is probably
like the scariest thing you could have possibly go into
done it. I have not done it. I need to
do it.
Speaker 3 (42:28):
I live it.
Speaker 1 (42:32):
I feel like it would be the scariest thing. But
I'm obsessed with every I love all of the human
interest stories. I love the relationships with your partners. So
how was that experience for you and did you have
any did you have to think about it a lot
or were you a fan of the show and you
just immediately were like, yes, I'm doing this.
Speaker 3 (42:51):
I was a huge fan of the show, and before
leading up to that, I think I had been asked
to be on every reality show, celebrity reality show possible,
and I said no. I've said no to every single
one of them. I'm like, just it's just not my thing.
I don't really want to be a part of it. However,
if Dancing with the Stars asks me, that is an
(43:15):
immediate yes. So I waited, like I kept calling my agent, going,
can you just let them know I'm interested? Let them
know I'm interested. And I think I waited like five
years or something because I wasn't on full house at
the time, like I was still in my stay at
home mom phase, but I had just started to get
(43:36):
back into the business.
Speaker 5 (43:38):
So I waited very patiently, and then when.
Speaker 3 (43:41):
I got the call of like, hey, they'd like to
meet you and come on in and see, you know,
if it might work for this season, I was like
freaking out and it was so there was no hesitation
or reservation. I wanted to do it so badly, but
I did not. No, I did not realize how difficult
(44:04):
the experience would be and life changing in the best
of ways. That's what I feel like I hear.
Speaker 1 (44:13):
From life changing how.
Speaker 3 (44:17):
So, I mean, depending depending on who you are and
what you're familiar with, it pushes you out of your
comfort zone.
Speaker 1 (44:26):
Yes so much.
Speaker 3 (44:28):
And like for me, I'm not a dancer. I have
no background in dancing or training, but like I like
to dance in a wedding. You know, that's about it.
And so so when you get, you know, paired with
a partner. I loved my partner. It was Mark Dallas.
(44:51):
He was wonderful and he was sweet, yeah, all the things.
Because I was like, I don't want drill sergeant, like
I can't that's.
Speaker 1 (45:00):
Not no, No, tough love won't work for me.
Speaker 3 (45:06):
Yeah, tough love doesn't work. I need like day.
Speaker 1 (45:11):
Yes, yes, I need to hear how wonderful?
Speaker 5 (45:15):
Yes, like a little child, Just tell me how great.
Speaker 3 (45:18):
That was my improvement. So anyway, there was just so
much growth because what I didn't know how much the
effort was going to be. And I I truly wanted
to improve as much as I could because I realized
I was not really a good dancer. And so they
(45:40):
give you specific amounts of time that you can train,
and then within the progression, if you go along from
week to week, they'll increase your time that you're allowed
to practice to be in the studio.
Speaker 1 (45:53):
Right, Okay, So like that.
Speaker 3 (45:55):
First, the first few weeks that you're on they only
let you practice for four hours a day. But by
the time you're probably at week six, seven, eight, they
give you up to like eight to ten hours, and
I was there all the hours because I needed.
Speaker 1 (46:13):
It, So like that's a long day.
Speaker 5 (46:17):
Yeah, it was.
Speaker 3 (46:18):
It was. It was draining, but it was exciting. And
the live audience thing and the live show totally freaked
me out.
Speaker 5 (46:27):
I I.
Speaker 3 (46:31):
Don't know what I did in my mind. I realize
now that I have a lot of like panicky issues
when I don't feel in control. So I learned that
on that.
Speaker 2 (46:40):
Show, Hold On, Who would not feel panicked to go
out and dance in front of a live audience and
TV cameras.
Speaker 1 (46:46):
Anybody in the world would be nervous, by the way,
with judges into it, Yeah, with a lot of judgment
coming right afterwards, like right after you've like bard your
heart out, don your b and then you get to
just listen to everything you did wrong or right right.
Speaker 3 (47:08):
That's the good thing that even within the constructive criticism,
the judges on that show are always encouraging. They're always
going to find the good things that you did do
and they will point that out. So that's why that
that show is also really fun. And you know, once
I want you know, I got through it. I actually
like mentally went downhill by the hand of that show,
(47:29):
because I was like, get me off this roller coaster
up before every single show, like I was, you kept going,
You made it to the finals? Yes, yes, yes, because
the other thing.
Speaker 1 (47:48):
Is there even though there are amateurs there, you know,
if you have a figure skater, that's a dancer, like
there are people who are dancers even though performers, yes,
who can move their but then there's the real like
you know, like non dancers, and you I couldn't like
that was amazing, And I would imagine, I imagine you
(48:11):
never thought you would go that far.
Speaker 3 (48:13):
I'm sure because I think I was in the bottom,
the bottom two every single week until like the semi finals,
So I always thought I was leaving every single week,
and then I would somehow get saved or the fan vote,
audience saved to me, and I stayed alive. So it
was crazy. There were a lot of people that were
(48:34):
much better in terms of dancing that should have stayed.
But that's also the fun thing about that show is
that it isn't always about the best dancer. And there
have been, you know, several seasons where by far the
best dancer does win, but some that haven't and some
it's just because there's a connection with the audience. There's
a connection through the arc of the performance and where
(48:56):
you started, where you've gone, the journey that you that
it takes you through, and that's the heart of that show.
And I think that's what the viewer really loves, is
going on that journey.
Speaker 1 (49:06):
Yes, seeing that person's growth and the vulnerability that you see, Like,
I feel like and it doesn't feel manufactured. I know
that when cameras are there, people know, but you really
in that I feel like in that scenario where you're
just sort of like blood, sweat and tears in a studio,
out of your comfort zone, the like you are really
(49:27):
saying raw emotions.
Speaker 5 (49:30):
And it's all pretty pretty real.
Speaker 3 (49:32):
It's not really pictured.
Speaker 1 (49:33):
You need to do the show. You have to do
the show. I am encouraging that.
Speaker 5 (49:38):
I am just putting that out there because.
Speaker 1 (49:41):
You know that happens, we will will talk about it,
you talk with you about it.
Speaker 3 (49:47):
I'm sure you'll want your family there in the audience first,
but I will be your first friend to sit in
that audience and cheer you on.
Speaker 1 (49:54):
Yeah, well, you'll be the one responsible for it if
that happens, for sure. Yeah, no, thank you. For indulging
me in that because we've had some guests on and
we just haven't gotten to it. And I was like,
I got, I'm asking Canvas about this today. Period.
Speaker 2 (50:09):
Yeah, I get the life changing experience. Now, yeah, I
mean it's not just leaving your comfort zone, but it's
it's challenging yourself.
Speaker 3 (50:17):
Yeah, Honestly, I came off of I came off of
Dancing with the Stars, went all the way to the end,
and it was only a month or two after that
that I got asked to co host the View, which
I signed a two year contract to co host the
View with them, And like I would probably never I
(50:37):
never would have even considered that because that show is
out of my comfort zone. Like I wasn't looking to
be You're fearless, right, but I'm fearless. And it was
because of Dancing with the Stars. I'm like, if I
could do that, oh, I can do anything. I'll learn this.
Speaker 5 (50:49):
I just learned how to dance, I'll learn how to
be a Yeah.
Speaker 2 (50:52):
That's the benefit of leaving your comfort zone and challenging yourself.
You can then go to another level and not be scared.
Speaker 1 (50:58):
How was the View? Was had a good experience.
Speaker 3 (51:03):
It has its ups and downs.
Speaker 5 (51:05):
It was a it was a challenging one too, and I'm.
Speaker 3 (51:08):
Grateful for it.
Speaker 5 (51:10):
But I was very happy the day that I left.
Speaker 1 (51:13):
I feel like that's sort of the general consensus when
people have left the view that I feel like there
is a sort of rotation of you know, of ins
and outs on the view, and it feels like everyone
always is sort of like, I'm so grateful for the experience.
I'm so glad I did it, and goodbye. I'm really happy.
Speaker 5 (51:33):
That's so I'll be happy to just sit in the
chair and.
Speaker 2 (51:36):
Keep yes, yes, right, five shows a week, a very
opinionated different people. That's gotta be. That's challenging. Was Barbara
Walters there when you did it?
Speaker 1 (51:46):
Or no?
Speaker 3 (51:47):
She actually was there a few times right when I started,
but not full time anymore.
Speaker 1 (51:56):
So.
Speaker 3 (51:56):
I so I was at the at the table with her,
I think, and then she.
Speaker 1 (52:03):
Had stepped away from it. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (52:06):
I mean, I always love the idea of that show,
you know, bringing you, especially in this type of environment,
bringing people of different backgrounds and different political views together.
But it's cool that you did that for two years.
I mean, you have had.
Speaker 1 (52:20):
Such an eclectic career. You really have four books. She's
an author. I know, I know, and you don't stop
that the work is still going. And how older are
your kids known too? Because I know you started young.
Speaker 3 (52:36):
I did so Yeah, my kids are all in their
twenties and my son just got married a couple weeks ago.
Speaker 1 (52:43):
Oh congratulations.
Speaker 3 (52:45):
Yeah, thank you. Educations so exciting. It was so beautiful.
They are just a wonderful couple. We couldn't be happier.
But it's like, this is now a whole different season
because now I'm like, when do I get grandkids? Like
a crazy thought, but I'm like, I'm so excited for
(53:07):
when that day comes. One day. You know, it's this
whole different thing when your children are now adults, and
it's wonderful.
Speaker 1 (53:15):
It's so well, that's amazing. My daughter is going to
be twenty two and just adopted a cat, so I'm
a grandma to her cat, and I feel it.
Speaker 3 (53:26):
I feel thank you so much. I feel it.
Speaker 1 (53:30):
I feel this responsibility where it's her responsibility, but I
get to come in and be the cool cat grandma,
so so you get to do that with real humans soon.
But congratulations, that's amazing. Thank you.
Speaker 2 (53:43):
I love that you face all your different phases coming
off of Full House and going into marriage and kids
and now just with such optimism and it's all exciting, right,
it's all your attitude about it.
Speaker 5 (53:56):
Yeah, I think so thank you for that.
Speaker 3 (54:00):
Listen. I feel very very blessed in all the things
that I that I get to do. And I think
that's how I've always looked at it, that I've had
wonderful opportunities in my life and wonderful people around me,
and doors have been opened, and I'm like.
Speaker 1 (54:17):
I have.
Speaker 3 (54:20):
Such a well of gratitude in my heart and in
my life for all the things that I've been able
to do and that I continue to do. And I
I genuinely love what I do, and I have my
my hand and a lot of different things. But you know,
it makes life really beautiful when you're able to incorporate
(54:42):
your work into your passion or your passion into your work,
I should say, And that's what i' that's what I've
done with my life. So I'm I'm grateful for all
the things. And yeah, and now I'm like, you know,
sitting as an executive at our network Great America and Family,

A great movie coming out in theaters on April twenty
six called Unsung Hero that I can't wait for audiences
(55:25):

small Bone family who you would know them from the
band for King and Country and Rebecca Saint James, and
it's their family story. But there's yeah, lots of things,
lots of things that I'm just grateful for all of
it and I just truly enjoy it and love it.

about all of those things, and we do have to
let you go, but I just love One thing I
wanted to say is that I love that you know

Speaker 1 (00:11):
I'm David. You're so formal. You didn't say your name.
I mean sorry, I'm Christie. But I like the way
you say welcome to Hey dude. The night is called podcast.
I like it. It's very formal.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
Oh, because I told you you had a good intro voice. No, No,
now you're telling me I have.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
A good interest. You just have a like you just
go right into it. It's good. Have you ever listened
to Dak Shepherd's podcast, My god, you know what's so crazy? No?
And that. I just had this conversation with my brother Brian, who,
by the way, shout out today's his birthday. Even I
was gonna say happy birthday to Brian?
Speaker 3 (00:50):
What how can you were not?
Speaker 4 (00:52):
I was? I came up on my Facebook I wish
him happy birthday. But my gosh, that's so fun. I
was going to say, how do you have you got
my birthday wrong? You wish me a happy birthday last week?
I was going to bring up that story too, very embarrassing.
My calendar popped up and said Christine Taylor's birthday. So
I wrote Christine a whole message.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
I hope it's a.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
Great day, happy birthday, and a year ahead, and she
goes my birthdays in July.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
I said, I think this might have been meant for
someone else, like I thought, maybe it was another Christine
that you know. And then you showed me your calendar
screenshot and you said, my computer's never wrong, and I said,
are you sure? Yeah, I'm sure. But I did take
your good wishes for a good day and a good year,
(01:41):
and so far so good.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Well, so it was an early birthday wish. But happy
birthday to Brian Taylor.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
Yes, I mean for the listeners, this his birthday will
have passed. So if anybodybody's out there listening, who knows
Brian Taylor, his birthday already passed. But yes, today's birthday.
And yeah, I am very excited because and we'll talk.
(02:10):
You can talk about our guests, because I know she's
a friend of yours. But my cousin, my first cousin,
Kevin Taylor, is I think her officially her number one fan.
And I got a message last year from my maybe
last year or the year before from my aunt saying,
do you happen to know Candace everyone? Because it's Kevin's
(02:38):
birthday and I thought it'd be amazing to get a
signed autograph or a picture or something for Kevin for
his birthday. And I felt terrible. I responded. I was like,
I don't know her at all, Like I have no connection.
Oh really, you never met Candace? No? No, wow, how
is that possible? If we had met me, maybe it
(03:00):
was at an event or something, but I didn't. It's
that weird thing where you're like, I don't want to
just randomly reach out to a rep about somebody who's
like a cousin.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
Of a thing.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
It never it always sounds lame. And so now I
get to meet her and tell her how much my
cousin loves her, and then maybe even when all is
said and done, have a have a contact to get
a signed picture from her at some point, and I'll
(03:29):
be like that perfect. Yeah, I'll be like the star player.
I'll be his favorite cousin from this moment forward. He
also actually happens to be like a huge my cousin,
a big, huge, hey dude fan. And they went to
the tank AVERTI dude ranch years ago to just just
(03:51):
to see like the old abandoned sets and so so
you know, so my.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
Cousin's cousin, is he much younger than you?
Speaker 1 (03:58):
He's he's about ten years younger than me.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
So he must have been so psyched that you were
his cousin during those years.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
Yes, he was, he was.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
They were.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
They didn't tell me they were psyched about it. I
found it out years later. But how are you all
over there?
Speaker 2 (04:18):
We are all good. The rain stopped finally.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
You know, we have two kids away, and you know,
you know, we only have one kid, Chelsea's at home,
and we just had so much fun with her. We
saw the uh, the Bob Marley movie the other night.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Have you seen that? No? I no, I haven't seen.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
My gosh, it was so intense, so amazing. And we
did some hikes.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
You know.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
We just really had a nice long weekend. Chelsea had
two days off of school Friday and Monday, and we
really just hung out a lot.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
It was so nice, so nice. Oh, I see, Okay,
we've got canvases here. Yes, we got our we just
got note, we got our big red alert. Candace is

about this.

Speaker 3 (05:41):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
You just think you're the greatest. And I was telling
David before before we logged in that my cousin, my
first cousin, who's about ten years younger than me, like,
is so madly in love with you. He's very happily
married with kids, but he has loved you from his youth.
And I'm not kidding. Like a year ago, my aunt
(06:04):
reached out to me. It was like, do you have
any connections? Do you think we could get assigned autograph?
I was like, I don't know, No, I don't have
any connections at all. And now look now, now I
have a connection, maybe connection.
Speaker 5 (06:16):
Maybe you'll get us and whatever you want you.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
To do, it.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
I can't believe you guys have never met.
Speaker 3 (06:25):
I know.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
It's it's so crazy, it's really crazy.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
But I'm really happy to meet you.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
It's such a pleasure. And what's your Let's talk about
you two. What is your history? How do you and
David know each other? I want all the dirt.
Speaker 5 (06:40):
We did a TV do you remember, David?
Speaker 2 (06:43):
Oh, Candice, I looked up on YouTube last night. I
think it's called No. I know, it's called Kids in
the Woods. Yeah it is Z right. It was a
play on like boys.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
I no, it's not no, wait, what was this a
TV movie? It was a TV movie.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
It was directed by Neil Israel who he had done
the movie Bachelor Party, you remember with Tom Hanks, of course,
and he was married to Amy Heckerline. But it was
Candice and I and it was a whole like slew of.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
It was all like the actors that were either on
T G I F or whatever shows. I think Tachi
on Ali was in it as Fonzo Alfonso is.
Speaker 5 (07:30):
It's hilarious.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
I love that it was. It was a kids k
I d Z in the Woods w O O d
Z as well. Both were z's No. I think it
was the Woods was a z I just looked it up.
I have to see this.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
I have a scene pulled up, but I think we'll
just maybe post it. I can't show it to you.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
It's funny.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
We were in Vancouver for a summer during our hiatus.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
Yeah, I remember that. That was like the first movie. Oh,
maybe I'm getting them mixed up. No, I'm not. That
was the first movie that I went to Vancouver on
my own. Like, my mom didn't accompany me because I
think I was seventeen maybe, and so I was like, mom, like,
(08:18):
can I be an adult please? And she let me.
Speaker 5 (08:23):
I think we got into a little bit of trouble.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
It was so much fun.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
I think, Yeah, listen, I've done movies in Vancouver during
the winter and it's rainy and gross, But like that,
our movie, it was beautiful.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
It was.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
What is the premise of this? Is it just kids
romping kids?
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Then that Dave Thomas from SCTV was the lead in
this movie.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
No, who's the girl from Newhart? Julia Duffy, Oh my god,
like Duffy geniuses. Oh, such comedic geniuses.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
I don't think i've seen that movie since it aired.
I think I watched it once back in the day,
I couldn't even tell you the premise.
Speaker 5 (09:07):
I really don't know really in a stamp what's happening.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
If you go on YouTube, which I did last night,
you can pull up there's so many clips of it,
and YouTube is incredible, like they find everything. But I
think it was some kind of summer trip with students.
And then Candae's character kept I had a girlfriend, but
she kept coming after me, and I was so rude
(09:34):
to her. I like, literally, I got to show you
a clip where she's like, can she said, I sit
behind you in math class? And then I go, oh, yeah,
you have that smell and you're like, oh, it's a
new perfumer.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Oh no, and then you insult her. The insult her
like over and over again. Terrible. Yeah, teenage boys, teen
it was this the nineties. Let's just get let's get
to it. This like early nineties.
Speaker 3 (10:01):
Yeah. It was yeah, yeah, this was early nineties for sure.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
It was fun.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
It was so I mean, Darius McCrary what a great guy.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
I loved him.
Speaker 3 (10:10):
Yeah, we had fun.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
Candice. I did an episode of Full House and we
had it.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
Was gonna say, I feel like there's a net We
did some other stuff too.
Speaker 5 (10:27):
I'm like, which episode were you on a full House?
Speaker 2 (10:31):
I know because we had Jody on and you and
I are about to go on a date or I
don't you're helping me. It was called take my Sister Please,
and you were trying to get us your own bedroom
or something, and like, I'm in your room and we're
doing homework and I invite you out to I'm about
(10:51):
to ask you out on a date, and then Jody
comes in and starts hazing me, like trying to sabotaze
the date.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
My gosh, I'd have to go back and look at
that episode.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Yeah, it's random, but I remember being so nervous. It
was one of my first jobs, like Christine after Hey dude,
it was one of my first network roles in Candice
and everyone there were so seasoned and so calm, and
I was so freaking nervous.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
Wait did we do the movie first or do the
full House episode first?
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (11:24):
No, the full House thing was way way before the movie?
Speaker 3 (11:27):
Oh way before? Okay, Like, how young was I dating
on Full House?
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Man must have been. I mean it was high school years.
But yeah, you were super cool to work with and
it was nice. But you guys were so seasoned and
so calm about everything, and you know, when it's one
of your first guest stars, you're so like, oh my god,
am I doing this right?
Speaker 5 (11:52):
I know.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
It's when you grow up in that, especially on a sitcom,
when there's a live audience, it just feels natural. It's
what you do. And you know, we did Full House
for eight years, so you become accustomed to it. But
once I was finished with that show and then worked
later and would go onto other people's set, whether it
(12:15):
was a single camera or audience, you then know what
it feels like to be the guest star. And it's
so scary, isn't it.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
Right, It's the worst. It's the worst, no matter no
matter what your resume is, no matter how much work
you've done or how much you've earned your spot there,
you feel like such an outsider.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
Right. Yeah. I did an episode of Boy Meets World
and it was probably one or two years after Full
House ended, so I.
Speaker 5 (12:48):
Think I was like nineteen or something, nineteen or twenty.
But same thing. I'm like, I've been doing this my
whole life.
Speaker 3 (12:55):
Everyone is great on that set, but once we got
to the tape night and the audience filled in. I
was like, I don't remember lying, I don't know what
I'm doing.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
I'm not funny, I suck. I just nerve inner.
Speaker 3 (13:09):
Fat, your nerves get the best of you.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
So was was full House? I mean, first of all,
just coming from you know a family, like you know
your brother, and was full House your first big job?
Were you working as a Were you doing commercials when
you were much younger and sort of on the circuit,
and then full House was the big thing?
Speaker 3 (13:31):
Yes, exactly.
Speaker 5 (13:32):
I was a veteran by the time I got full House.
I'd already been in the business for five years.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
I had done, like, I had done quite quite a
few commercials, and then I had done.
Speaker 5 (13:44):
I mean I was on I was on a show
called Like.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
Saint Elsewhere, which was like a really popular like before. Yes, yes, yes,
I was like like a I played someone's daughter on that.
So I was on several episodes that I was on
an episode of the show named Alice that was like
one of my favorites as a kid. Do you guys
remember that Mel in the Diner.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
Of mel Kiss My Grits, wasn't it Kiss My Grits?
Speaker 5 (14:12):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (14:13):
I think I was five or six and I was.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
On it ol I loved that show.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
Yeah, and then was on a couple of episodes of
Growing Pains, my brother show before Full House. So I
did have quite a bit of an experience before full House,
but that was the big breakout role.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
But Growing Pains was before full House.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
Right, Yeah, it started I think two years. It might
have been three, but I think two years before Full House.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
I got to just tell you that my goal in
life was to be your brother.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
Oh, I remember, David, I remember this. You were so
into Kirk during it. You were like, he is the
fun like he has watched what he's doing. Look at
what he's doing. I remember you showing me the series,
which we'd all seen, but you were like, he is
a genius what he doing him? Because he was playing me.
Speaker 2 (15:03):
I related to that character, the charming guy that just
gets out of everything because he's got you know, he
knows how he uses his charm. But he and Michael J.
Fox at the time. I mean, I would record those
episodes of Growing Pains and I'd watch them over and
over when we had VCR tapes, and my goal in
life was to be a sitcom star like your brother.
(15:26):
He was so freaking good. And he brought us so
much joy from that show and then for you to
follow in his footsteps. I mean, what was it like
seeing your brother become a huge star like that.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
I mean, it was it was cool, it was weird,
it was like all of all of the above. You know,
our family, we weren't really a show business family. So
because we lived in La we started auditioning. It was
like someone's like, oh, your kids are cute. Here's my
(16:01):
agent's picture. And my mom was like, Okay, we'll try this,
and we kind of fell into the business. So it
was like pretty crazy that my brother then got this
sitcom and then was like on magazine covers with Michael J.
Fox and Jason Bateman, and he was like, you know
this heart throb person. So at home, it's like that's
(16:23):
my that's my dorky brother.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
Yeah, I love him to all.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
The girls that are like buying pillowcases with his face
on it.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
And plastering the magazine covers on their wall.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
We legit thought like at one point of the height
of my brother's stardom on the show, we had turned
part of our garage in the back to a makeshift
fan club that we make. Legit not only did we
have a like letter openers and we're opening all of
(16:57):
this family like thousands and it's like ten thousand letters
a week. But then we would have like a little
mailer that we would send out to people, and like
we were like my two sisters and I. We would
clamp buttons that had my brother's face on them, and
we would like send a photo with a.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
Button to Oh my goodness, oh that you guys were
doing it on your own.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
We were, we were.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
There were companies I'm sure that did those sorts.
Speaker 3 (17:26):
Of things, but you know, back in the eighties, and
it was like my mom cared about the fans so much,
my mom and my dad and they felt that the
responsibility to reply and right, you know, and then at
one point it just got so overwhelming. But yeah, we
were like little child laborers in the back making buttons
with my brothers.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
Oh that is so funny.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
I love that you gave respect everyone that sent a
letter though. That's so cool.
Speaker 1 (17:51):
Yeah, So, I.
Speaker 3 (17:53):
Mean it was it was fun. It was fun in
that regard, and it was fun to see my brother
just light up the screen and people loved the show.
And you know, I think my favorite memories were going
to the set of Growing Pains every week because they
taped usually I think on a Thursday or Friday night.
(18:14):
So that was so exciting to go and watch every
live episode with my sisters and watch my brother. It
was really fun. And then you know it was and
then I was on i think three episodes of Growing Paints,
which was.
Speaker 5 (18:29):
Super cool before I got DJ Tanner.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
Wow, so you were well versed and trained by the
time you got the role on Full House. You watch
your brother, you acted on the show.
Speaker 3 (18:42):
I mean yeah, I mean I had a little experience,
so it didn't feel I wasn't I wasn't scared of
it at all. I'm like, oh, I've already done this
and hopefully this will be fun. But you know when
you get when you even get.
Speaker 5 (18:56):
A pilot, you never know what's going to happen to them.
Speaker 1 (18:59):
And that was so true with Full House.
Speaker 3 (19:02):
Everyone's like, Okay, John Stamos is here, so this has
a good chance of getting picked up and going, but
you just kind of never know.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
Wait, John was coming off of a general hospital. He
was yeah, yeah, oh yes, so he was the star.
He was the big star to carry the show at
the first at the beginning exactly.
Speaker 5 (19:25):
I didn't know when I got when I booked the role.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
We had our first table reading, and I had no
idea who was associated in this sitcom, like at all.
I think we knew that the creator was Jeff Franklin
and that was it. So I kept asking my mom,
like on the drive over, who's in this?
Speaker 5 (19:44):
Who's in this?
Speaker 3 (19:45):
And she's like, I don't know. So when we wait
and you were how old?
Speaker 1 (19:48):
How is we at this point? Okay, okay, so so
you're asking your mom.
Speaker 3 (19:53):
Yeah. When we got into the room and there were
so many people because it was all the writers, the producers,
the directors, the network, and.
Speaker 5 (20:01):
It's just a lot of faces and you get really.
Speaker 3 (20:03):
Scared, like, oh, you know you're gonna read the script,
but it's intimidating. But they're sitting across the table from
me was was Blackie from General Hospital.
Speaker 1 (20:14):
So I was oh my gosh.
Speaker 3 (20:16):
I was only ten, but my sisters were huge General
Hospital fans, so they were in love with him, and
all I could do, even more than just doing the
read through, I just wanted to get home to my
sisters to tell them I'm doing a TV show with Lackey.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
Oh my gosh, and was that for you? That was
it that like you knew you had at that point
you had gotten the part and you or you that
was that was part of the audition was with So
that was after I booked it.
Speaker 3 (20:47):
I auditioned a couple of times, but that was I
booked it, and then we had our first table reading
and then shot our pilot like a week later.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
Let's just talk about the experience of Full House. I mean,
this show is so iconic in it like thirty years later,
it's still people love it. But like, did you know
there was something special? And what was it like, you know,
being in that experience.
Speaker 3 (21:20):
I'm still in the entertainment industry today because that was
such a good experience, Like could not have had better
people around, especially being a kid. And you know, I'm
sure you've you're talking to people on the show, but
we hear like so many stories that a lot of
(21:40):
kids don't have good experiences, and we all felt so
just so blessed, such a such a gift to all
of us that we genuinely had family people around and
everyone was in it to create a fun show and
do a good job. And at least that was my
perspective as a kid. But I think that if you
(22:03):
talk to anyone from the show, they will tell you
the same thing. And it just felt magical what Jeff
Franklin created, who he cast on the show. We all
just hit it off and it was just there was
so much love for eight years on that show between
all of us.
Speaker 5 (22:21):
I was like except for maybe John and.
Speaker 3 (22:23):
Bob like season one and then they like figured it out,
but they you know, John talked about that all the time,
but it was so it was just so it was
so good. It was so good and it's why I
still love doing it today.
Speaker 2 (22:37):
Did you feel pressure though, because we listen, we had
Jody and we had Andrea on right, Christine and yes, yeah,
they both said that you guys were so protected and
so taking care of on that set. But we've had
other actors on that were younger who felt a lot
of pressure. So you know, if I don't get to
laugh or they're going to write out my you know,
(23:00):
I'm not going to get you know, the storylines. Did
you ever feel that, like like I I'm not getting
my laughs or the pressure of that.
Speaker 3 (23:09):
No. No, And I've heard those stories too, and that
like it it hurts me internally so much to hear
those types of things.
Speaker 5 (23:20):
I think I at least.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
Didn't never felt that way, but I never had anyone
speak to me that way. No one ever came up
to me and is like, hey, you need to step
it up, or you need to make sure you get
this laugh. Like, we were never spoken to by anyone
on the show like that that had you know, authority
in terms of producers or a director. So it was
(23:44):
all very encouraging. And they also set us kids up
well in that we had a great dialogue coach that
would help work with us, and so we were you know,
I'm sure Jody already talked about this, but Jody was like,
Jody knew everybody's lines at five years old every episode like.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
It was a firecracker.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
Yeah, it was awesome, but like we were all even
as kids, we were all on top of our game
and half the time everyone was laughing because we were
way more professional than John, Bob and Dave.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
You know, yes, that is I think Andreas said the
same thing. She was like, we as kids, we were
the ones who were like following all the rules we
do exactly busting each other up. Yeah, we say like
we have school to do too.
Speaker 3 (24:37):
We're doing two jobs here, so come on, people, let's
make this work.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
Like and then you worked with you know Michelle, I
mean Mary Kay Ashley. Yeah, I mean I did a
show with them later. I played their uncle in a
show called Two of a Kind on Ages. Yeah, for
one season. But I mean they were they were infants, right.
Speaker 3 (24:58):
I know, yeah, I think they were like nine months
old when they started the show until they were eight
or almost nine.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
So how would you shoot their you know, their lines
or their reactions or whatever you would?
Speaker 1 (25:13):
Was that done separately?
Speaker 3 (25:16):
We so we had like two really heavy tape days,
so we would pre.
Speaker 5 (25:21):
Tape before the live audience day.
Speaker 3 (25:22):
We would pre tape a day before, and all the
pre taping was all the kids stuff and particularly any
baby stuff or animal, you know, comment the dog stuff.
So we would always make sure that we had that
in the can. But yeah, it was like Adria later
was the like baby coach or baby Wrangler. It's such
(25:45):
a weird name, and you know, it's like it's like
when you go get your portrait taken, there's someone behind
the camera and they're just got little toys and they're
like trying to make a baby, like, that's what Adria
would do. And then as they got older and they
were started to have lines on the show, she would
just like tell him you got it, dude, You got it, dude,
(26:06):
and they would Peter. And so we would do a
lot of pre taping the day before so that when
it came time to the audience, if we didn't get
it on audience night, we already knew we had it.
Speaker 5 (26:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
I did a movie a few years ago where they
were it was there was a baby involved, and it
was just so fun and it was a low budget movie,
so it wasn't like you didn't have that that wrangler
person too, but it was the mom and of course that,
but it was really about like, Okay, which twin is
(26:43):
in a better mood at this moment, can and can
handle it? And then they were sort of always sort
of both on call of like nope, not working for
this one, we're putting the other one in and exactly
it was a fascinating thing to witness and you know,
like for the mom that pained me so as a
mom too, I just thought, oh my god, you know,
(27:05):
just like I wanted so much for these these twins
to to do you take it home for her because
you could just see her. She's like, oh, please do it,
please do it just right, that's right.
Speaker 3 (27:17):
I know nobody's going to get outside the pressure as
a mom. No, like you hope your child performs well.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
We asked Jody and Andrew this too. But I'm always
so fascinated because that age for you to start the
show at ten and finish at what seventeen or eighteen? Yeah,
I mean that is your those years. They're so up
on it. Everything changed, Your body's changing, You're changing your
(27:48):
likes and dislikes and boys and all of it. And
how how were you able to manage that as someone
who was on a huge hit television show and also
just you know, being a teenage girl, like just going
through those changes.
Speaker 5 (28:04):
I mean, looking back, well, we could have, but there's certainly.
Speaker 3 (28:11):
Things that I can look back on and it's like, oh,
or you know, I'm glad that my own daughter hasn't
had that some of the pressures or experiences. And again
mine were really good, and like I have a really
great supportive family. So does Andrea, so does Jody. So
(28:32):
I think that is another huge reason why the three
of us are still working and love this because that
is like a huge component to have your family or
whoever your primary caretakers are in your life to really
be looking out for you and your best interest and
not to say yes to everything so that your career
(28:57):
can succeed.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
And we always about the next thing. And I think
you're absolutely right. For a lot of kid actors, it's
really the parents are driving. You know. We've talked to
people where that was the case, where the parents were
making the decisions and there was not a lot of
agency or discussion. But when you have, you know, family
members that are all about just what is best for
(29:21):
you for my child in this moment, and let's enjoy
it for what it is. And that's what it really
sounds like you all had exactly.
Speaker 2 (29:29):
Kendice, Were you ever enrolled in a in a regular
school or you just did completely as Yeah.
Speaker 3 (29:36):
So I did a combo of both. When we first started,
I remember I still went to like sixth grade, and
then I still wanted to I was going to junior
high school and I wanted to have that experience, that
real experience. So I was taking some classes in the
(29:56):
morning and then I would go to work and then
and when we'd go we're down for on hiatus the
extended rest of the school year. I would go back
and then take all of my classes. But that proved,
Like by eighth eighth grade, it was horrendous. I got
really bullied by the kids in the school because I
(30:17):
was on like a TV show that everyone watched, and
yet they just all made fun of me.
Speaker 5 (30:26):
And it was like, so it was so awful.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
Oh, I sort of thought the opposite, that everyone would
want to be your friend.
Speaker 1 (30:32):
And you know, you think, but I don't think kids
at that age, I think there's jealousy. It's it's the
feeling of like, oh, this person, she thinks she's better,
so much better than us, And it was just it's
that preteen and all they can the only way to
manage that is by making fun of the person, Like
because you're the outsider, we're not going to like you
(30:54):
because you're trying.
Speaker 3 (30:57):
That was exactly it. So by ninth grade and above,
I was pretty much just tutored on the set and
then you know, finish my last year of high school
still doing the show.
Speaker 1 (31:08):
Wow, those are some important years. But I know, and
when so when the show finished and it was like okay,
high school graduation. I'm you know, this next chapter of life?
What was did you know you wanted to keep going?
Did you feel like you wanted to do something else?
(31:30):
You know, we talked to Mayam who you know on
bloss It. She really wanted to go to college. She
wanted to have that experience. You know, what, where were
you at at that point?
Speaker 5 (31:42):
I was so happy to finish high school.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
I was like, no, no more school school, no more academics.
I still hear you.
Speaker 3 (31:53):
I was not that that girl. I was not not
the academic one. So the interesting part for me is
that I met my husband during the last year of
the show, and I was only eighteen years old. So we.
Speaker 5 (32:11):
It was like it just was.
Speaker 3 (32:13):
It was prime for me in that it couldn't I
couldn't have made the transition any better because we had
this We got engaged, like you know, we dated for
a year, got engaged, and so once the show ended,
I felt like, oh my goodness, I'm going to start
this new journey, like a new season of life in
(32:36):
that I'm going to be married and have a family,
have a family maybe, and I still wanted to work,
Like you know, at eighteen years old, I'm thinking, well,
of course I'm still going to work and do all
of that at the same time.
Speaker 5 (32:49):
And then and then realized like.
Speaker 3 (32:51):
Oh, can't do all the things all at the same time.
A some some things have to just you know, you
got to set aside. But so the transition really was
easy in that I wanted to keep working, but I
met my husband, got we got married, and then when
we did start a family, which was like two years
(33:12):
after we got married, I just realized I actually didn't
want to work so I could be home more with
my kids to raise them. But it worked out pretty well.
We've been married twenty seven years.
Speaker 1 (33:25):
Congratulations. I mean that's really it wasn't like high school sweethearts,
but it almost is because it was like right out
of high school that period of time, and.
Speaker 3 (33:35):
A really any TV TV person could get that high
school experience and get married like he is my high
school sweetheart, because neither of us really had a high
school experience. He was a pro hockey player, so he
was on a different journey too. Yep.
Speaker 2 (33:50):
The sports was how did you guys meet at when
you're eighteen?
Speaker 3 (33:55):
Dave Coolier introduced us at a charity hockey game. Oh yeah, awesome, Yeah,
totally funny. And then we went on our first date
and I the very next day after we met, and
Lori Laughlin was my wing girl because I was like,
he asked me to go to lunch. I've never been
on a date with someone I don't know. Will you
(34:18):
please go with me?
Speaker 1 (34:19):
Oh? No, way, she went date.
Speaker 3 (34:22):
So Laurie went with me, and VAL's brother was there too,
So the four of us went on a date. But
I mean, talk about full circle with my full House family,
like they between Dave and Laurie and Bob and John,
like just being protective parents' uncles whatever you want to
call it. There, I mean a huge part of my
(34:43):
life in that next season of my life, even just
as the show ended.
Speaker 2 (34:48):
Oh my gosh, life imitating artists. So I mean, it's
really crazy. I mean Dave played the role of your
real uncle introducing you to your husband. I mean, yeah,
that's so cool. Yeah, So I want to get into
all of you. You know, you've written several best selling books.
But how did the Fuller House come about? Well, our
(35:13):
house was amazing. I'm so I wish it hadn't ended.
It was such a fun time in life.
Speaker 3 (35:20):
Oh my goodness, it was you know, one of these
crazy thoughts because we were one of the first shows
that came back.
Speaker 1 (35:28):
Right and probably we talked to Jody.
Speaker 2 (35:31):
You helped Netflix quite a bit, I think at that time.
Speaker 1 (35:34):
Yeah, reboots were not a thing.
Speaker 5 (35:37):
No all, No, we were one of the first.
Speaker 3 (35:40):
And I don't really I don't remember all of the details,
but it was like Jeff Franklin, John Stamos, and Bob Boyette,
who was the original I mean they were the Bob
Boyette and Jeff were the original creators and production company
that did Full House. And they were like, we're going
(36:02):
to pitch this. Are you guys all interested in doing this?
So they talked to me, Jody, Andrea, you know, Dave, Bob, Lori, everyone,
and we are like yeah. And so Jeff came up
with the concept of fuller House, which was basically just
flipping full House in that now I married, my husband's
passed away, I've got three boys, and I need my
(36:25):
best friend and my sister to move in to help
me raise them.
Speaker 5 (36:28):
And it was like brilliant.
Speaker 3 (36:32):
And so we went around and pitched to every network
and they all said no, like, we don't think people
remember the show, even though the show hadn't been off
the air in thirty years, but they were like, no,
I don't think there's enough fan base out there anymore.
All this kind of stuff. And then it was our
(36:53):
very last pitch. We went to Netflix and a couple
of the execs really liked it and they were like
pulling for us, and they pushed it forward and they said.
Speaker 1 (37:08):
Yes, so but and I think Andrea told the story
that like, because it was the last pitch and you
guys had pitched it, it was like everyone was sort
of like, oh my god, like it's so non into
it at that point because you'd been said no to
so many times, and they were like all kinds of
like she said, I think like I was went to
the wrong place, or like there was all sorts of
(37:30):
confusion and no one was caring at this point because
it was going to be a no again. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (37:37):
Yeah, because it was Jody Andrea and me, John Stamos,
Jeff Franklin, and there were a couple other executives there
in the room, but like we were going out and
pitching this and pitching this, so it wasn't like they
just knocked on the door and were like, hey, want
to do a full house.
Speaker 2 (37:55):
Are you guys went into pitch meetings as an entire
cast as an Yes, that's so cool.
Speaker 3 (38:01):
Yes we did, and so yeah, so it was like yeah,
by Netflix, we were like, okay, good, this was a
good try. This was this was really fun to get
together and hang out for like the last month, right
doing light these pitch meetings. But we figured it was
over and then Netflix gave us the green light, and
that became some of the best years of my life,
(38:24):
which is still really recent although we you know, it
ended in twenty twenty and thankfully in the sense that
the world changed after twenty twenty, so we just kind
of we ended the show right before the pandemic had hit.
But man, it was so much fun to get back together,
like to get the band back together. It was I
(38:45):
would do that job with those people every day for
the rest of my life if I could.
Speaker 2 (38:50):
Was it the same same soundstage, the exact same thing.
Speaker 3 (38:53):
Yes, yes, that is just crazy.
Speaker 1 (38:57):
You're indipitous, like it is, just do you couldn't I
write it more perfectly?
Speaker 5 (39:02):
I know, truly truly a gift.
Speaker 1 (39:15):
I'll tell you.
Speaker 2 (39:15):
I want to just talk about Bob Sagat for a
minute because I was friends with him for a long
time and we had many mutual friends, but I hadn't
talked to him in a long time. But my daughter
Chelsea had her camp friends coming to visit from New York,
and so I reached out to Bob. To our friend
Mike Young, he said, can you get us tickets to
(39:36):
Fuller House? And not only did he get them tickets,
he got them onto the stage and to meet all
you guys. And he was one of the sweetest people
I've ever known. And I didn't know him as well
as you obviously, But yeah, talk about your relationship with Bob,
because it's just his passing was devastating to everybody.
Speaker 3 (39:56):
Yeah, it really, it really was. Yeah, Bob was one
of one of my best friends. He was one of
the closest people to me in my life, and so
the loss was so great and so difficult. But he
everything that you said, Bob was so generous. He was
(40:17):
so loving, so kind, and he if you asked Bob
to do anything, he'd be like, yep, yep, I'll make
it happen and go above and beyond. And it didn't
matter who you were, how well he knew you, if
he sat next to you, on an airplane or whatever.
Like Bob was just that guy that would just want
to make people happy because it you know, because it does.
(40:39):
It feels good to be generous, it feels good to
be kind, and it changes someone's day.
Speaker 5 (40:44):
And Bob just always knew that. And I think Bob
Bob just appreciated because he had.
Speaker 3 (40:51):
Bob had a lot of loss in his life. There
was a lot of heartbreak in his life. So he
appreciated all the moment in his life, big and small,
and wanted to help bring that joy to other people
in their their lives.
Speaker 1 (41:07):
So beautiful and what I you know, we I shared
this before, but he from the couple of times that
I met him, But he loved my mother in law
and spoke at her at her funeral, and but they
shared such an irreverent sense of humor. And that was
what I think was so funny, is because Bob was
(41:29):
on full House, which was so family and so clean
cut that you behind the scenes, Yeah, and my mother
in law, who had the same kind of you know,
body mouth, that was like they would have sort of
swapped insults and and but it was all love and
it was so just he just so so funny so funny. Yeah,
(41:53):
I know what a special relationship, Yeah, that you love
to have with him? Yeah, I have a crazy question.
I don't mean to say this is a question that
is a total segue, and I feel like we've had
guests on the show before who have done this, But
I need to ask about doing Dancing with the Stars.
Speaker 3 (42:15):
I love talking about Dancing with the Stars because.
Speaker 1 (42:18):
I'm obsessed with it. I feel like it is probably
like the scariest thing you could have possibly go into
done it. I have not done it. I need to
do it.
Speaker 3 (42:28):
I live it.
Speaker 1 (42:32):
I feel like it would be the scariest thing. But
I'm obsessed with every I love all of the human
interest stories. I love the relationships with your partners. So
how was that experience for you and did you have
any did you have to think about it a lot
or were you a fan of the show and you
just immediately were like, yes, I'm doing this.
Speaker 3 (42:51):
I was a huge fan of the show, and before
leading up to that, I think I had been asked
to be on every reality show, celebrity reality show possible,
and I said no. I've said no to every single
one of them. I'm like, just it's just not my thing.
I don't really want to be a part of it. However,
if Dancing with the Stars asks me, that is an
(43:15):
immediate yes. So I waited, like I kept calling my agent, going,
can you just let them know I'm interested? Let them
know I'm interested. And I think I waited like five
years or something because I wasn't on full house at
the time, like I was still in my stay at
home mom phase, but I had just started to get
(43:36):
back into the business.
Speaker 5 (43:38):
So I waited very patiently, and then when.
Speaker 3 (43:41):
I got the call of like, hey, they'd like to
meet you and come on in and see, you know,
if it might work for this season, I was like
freaking out and it was so there was no hesitation
or reservation. I wanted to do it so badly, but
I did not. No, I did not realize how difficult
(44:04):
the experience would be and life changing in the best
of ways. That's what I feel like I hear.
Speaker 1 (44:13):
From life changing how.
Speaker 3 (44:17):
So, I mean, depending depending on who you are and
what you're familiar with, it pushes you out of your
comfort zone.
Speaker 1 (44:26):
Yes so much.
Speaker 3 (44:28):
And like for me, I'm not a dancer. I have
no background in dancing or training, but like I like
to dance in a wedding. You know, that's about it.
And so so when you get, you know, paired with
a partner. I loved my partner. It was Mark Dallas.
(44:51):
He was wonderful and he was sweet, yeah, all the things.
Because I was like, I don't want drill sergeant, like
I can't that's.
Speaker 1 (45:00):
Not no, No, tough love won't work for me.
Speaker 3 (45:06):
Yeah, tough love doesn't work. I need like day.
Speaker 1 (45:11):
Yes, yes, I need to hear how wonderful?
Speaker 5 (45:15):
Yes, like a little child, Just tell me how great.
Speaker 3 (45:18):
That was my improvement. So anyway, there was just so
much growth because what I didn't know how much the
effort was going to be. And I I truly wanted
to improve as much as I could because I realized
I was not really a good dancer. And so they
(45:40):
give you specific amounts of time that you can train,
and then within the progression, if you go along from
week to week, they'll increase your time that you're allowed
to practice to be in the studio.
Speaker 1 (45:53):
Right, Okay, So like that.
Speaker 3 (45:55):
First, the first few weeks that you're on they only
let you practice for four hours a day. But by
the time you're probably at week six, seven, eight, they
give you up to like eight to ten hours, and
I was there all the hours because I needed.
Speaker 1 (46:13):
It, So like that's a long day.
Speaker 5 (46:17):
Yeah, it was.
Speaker 3 (46:18):
It was. It was draining, but it was exciting. And
the live audience thing and the live show totally freaked
me out.
Speaker 5 (46:27):
I I.
Speaker 3 (46:31):
Don't know what I did in my mind. I realize
now that I have a lot of like panicky issues
when I don't feel in control. So I learned that
on that.
Speaker 2 (46:40):
Show, Hold On, Who would not feel panicked to go
out and dance in front of a live audience and
TV cameras.
Speaker 1 (46:46):
Anybody in the world would be nervous, by the way,
with judges into it, Yeah, with a lot of judgment
coming right afterwards, like right after you've like bard your
heart out, don your b and then you get to
just listen to everything you did wrong or right right.
Speaker 3 (47:08):
That's the good thing that even within the constructive criticism,
the judges on that show are always encouraging. They're always
going to find the good things that you did do
and they will point that out. So that's why that
that show is also really fun. And you know, once
I want you know, I got through it. I actually
like mentally went downhill by the hand of that show,
(47:29):
because I was like, get me off this roller coaster
up before every single show, like I was, you kept going,
You made it to the finals? Yes, yes, yes, because
the other thing.
Speaker 1 (47:48):
Is there even though there are amateurs there, you know,
if you have a figure skater, that's a dancer, like
there are people who are dancers even though performers, yes,
who can move their but then there's the real like
you know, like non dancers, and you I couldn't like
that was amazing, And I would imagine, I imagine you
(48:11):
never thought you would go that far.
Speaker 3 (48:13):
I'm sure because I think I was in the bottom,
the bottom two every single week until like the semi finals,
So I always thought I was leaving every single week,
and then I would somehow get saved or the fan vote,
audience saved to me, and I stayed alive. So it
was crazy. There were a lot of people that were
(48:34):
much better in terms of dancing that should have stayed.
But that's also the fun thing about that show is
that it isn't always about the best dancer. And there
have been, you know, several seasons where by far the
best dancer does win, but some that haven't and some
it's just because there's a connection with the audience. There's
a connection through the arc of the performance and where
(48:56):
you started, where you've gone, the journey that you that
it takes you through, and that's the heart of that show.
And I think that's what the viewer really loves, is
going on that journey.
Speaker 1 (49:06):
Yes, seeing that person's growth and the vulnerability that you see, Like,
I feel like and it doesn't feel manufactured. I know
that when cameras are there, people know, but you really
in that I feel like in that scenario where you're
just sort of like blood, sweat and tears in a studio,
out of your comfort zone, the like you are really
(49:27):
saying raw emotions.
Speaker 5 (49:30):
And it's all pretty pretty real.
Speaker 3 (49:32):
It's not really pictured.
Speaker 1 (49:33):
You need to do the show. You have to do
the show. I am encouraging that.
Speaker 5 (49:38):
I am just putting that out there because.
Speaker 1 (49:41):
You know that happens, we will will talk about it,
you talk with you about it.
Speaker 3 (49:47):
I'm sure you'll want your family there in the audience first,
but I will be your first friend to sit in
that audience and cheer you on.
Speaker 1 (49:54):
Yeah, well, you'll be the one responsible for it if
that happens, for sure. Yeah, no, thank you. For indulging
me in that because we've had some guests on and
we just haven't gotten to it. And I was like,
I got, I'm asking Canvas about this today. Period.
Speaker 2 (50:09):
Yeah, I get the life changing experience. Now, yeah, I
mean it's not just leaving your comfort zone, but it's
it's challenging yourself.
Speaker 3 (50:17):
Yeah, Honestly, I came off of I came off of
Dancing with the Stars, went all the way to the end,
and it was only a month or two after that
that I got asked to co host the View, which
I signed a two year contract to co host the
View with them, And like I would probably never I
(50:37):
never would have even considered that because that show is
out of my comfort zone. Like I wasn't looking to
be You're fearless, right, but I'm fearless. And it was
because of Dancing with the Stars. I'm like, if I
could do that, oh, I can do anything. I'll learn this.
Speaker 5 (50:49):
I just learned how to dance, I'll learn how to
be a Yeah.
Speaker 2 (50:52):
That's the benefit of leaving your comfort zone and challenging yourself.
You can then go to another level and not be scared.
Speaker 1 (50:58):
How was the View? Was had a good experience.
Speaker 3 (51:03):
It has its ups and downs.
Speaker 5 (51:05):
It was a it was a challenging one too, and I'm.
Speaker 3 (51:08):
Grateful for it.
Speaker 5 (51:10):
But I was very happy the day that I left.
Speaker 1 (51:13):
I feel like that's sort of the general consensus when
people have left the view that I feel like there
is a sort of rotation of you know, of ins
and outs on the view, and it feels like everyone
always is sort of like, I'm so grateful for the experience.
I'm so glad I did it, and goodbye. I'm really happy.
Speaker 5 (51:33):
That's so I'll be happy to just sit in the
chair and.
Speaker 2 (51:36):
Keep yes, yes, right, five shows a week, a very
opinionated different people. That's gotta be. That's challenging. Was Barbara
Walters there when you did it?
Speaker 1 (51:46):
Or no?
Speaker 3 (51:47):
She actually was there a few times right when I started,
but not full time anymore.
Speaker 1 (51:56):
So.
Speaker 3 (51:56):
I so I was at the at the table with her,
I think, and then she.
Speaker 1 (52:03):
Had stepped away from it. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (52:06):
I mean, I always love the idea of that show,
you know, bringing you, especially in this type of environment,
bringing people of different backgrounds and different political views together.
But it's cool that you did that for two years.
I mean, you have had.
Speaker 1 (52:20):
Such an eclectic career. You really have four books. She's
an author. I know, I know, and you don't stop
that the work is still going. And how older are
your kids known too? Because I know you started young.
Speaker 3 (52:36):
I did so Yeah, my kids are all in their
twenties and my son just got married a couple weeks ago.
Speaker 1 (52:43):
Oh congratulations.
Speaker 3 (52:45):
Yeah, thank you. Educations so exciting. It was so beautiful.
They are just a wonderful couple. We couldn't be happier.
But it's like, this is now a whole different season
because now I'm like, when do I get grandkids? Like
a crazy thought, but I'm like, I'm so excited for
(53:07):
when that day comes. One day. You know, it's this
whole different thing when your children are now adults, and
it's wonderful.
Speaker 1 (53:15):
It's so well, that's amazing. My daughter is going to
be twenty two and just adopted a cat, so I'm
a grandma to her cat, and I feel it.
Speaker 3 (53:26):
I feel thank you so much. I feel it.
Speaker 1 (53:30):
I feel this responsibility where it's her responsibility, but I
get to come in and be the cool cat grandma,
so so you get to do that with real humans soon.
But congratulations, that's amazing. Thank you.
Speaker 2 (53:43):
I love that you face all your different phases coming
off of Full House and going into marriage and kids
and now just with such optimism and it's all exciting, right,
it's all your attitude about it.
Speaker 5 (53:56):
Yeah, I think so thank you for that.
Speaker 3 (54:00):
Listen. I feel very very blessed in all the things
that I that I get to do. And I think
that's how I've always looked at it, that I've had
wonderful opportunities in my life and wonderful people around me,
and doors have been opened, and I'm like.
Speaker 1 (54:17):
I have.
Speaker 3 (54:20):
Such a well of gratitude in my heart and in
my life for all the things that I've been able
to do and that I continue to do. And I
I genuinely love what I do, and I have my
my hand and a lot of different things. But you know,
it makes life really beautiful when you're able to incorporate
(54:42):
your work into your passion or your passion into your work,
I should say, And that's what i' that's what I've
done with my life. So I'm I'm grateful for all
the things. And yeah, and now I'm like, you know,
