From 80s Icon to Indie Powerhouse: David Lipper

In this episode of The Gen-X-Perience Podcast, Stacey and Roy sit down with David Lipper - actor, producer, director, and true Gen X icon.

Known to many for his unforgettable role as Viper on the hit 90s sitcom Full House, David was part of the golden age of teen TV, cementing his place in pop culture history. But his story doesn’t stop there. Far from being a one-note heartthrob, David has gone on to build a visionary career behind the camera, co-founding Latigo Films and producing a diverse slate of projects across genres - from thrillers to rom-coms and everything in between.

We talk about the 80s hustle, the changing face of Hollywood, and what it means to reinvent yourself in an industry that never stops evolving. David opens up about his early days in Montreal, his breakout roles, and how his Gen X roots continue to shape his creative voice and work ethic.

From surviving the spotlight to thriving as a multi-hyphenate filmmaker, David Lipper is the ultimate example of Gen X resilience and reinvention - and we’re here for every minute of it.

Whether you loved him on screen or admire him behind the scenes, this episode is packed with insight, nostalgia, and pure Gen-X energy.
