Steve went to Harvard ? He should tell DJ she was so upset over him going to some beach university 😂😂😂

Scott has such a great personality!

I wonder if the actress that played Cindy will ever be on the podcast… do you remember who I’m referring to? She dated Danny and she had a son named Rusty who terrorized the family

[@davepane7306]

I totally know that feeling. Four years ago I accidentally found my beloved childhood home for sale. It was actually really special to me since my parents had died when I was only 13. Amazingly, I bought the house and for the first week or so I kept feeling those surreal, dream-like feelings. It's really a unique, yet special experience.

[@nicolemc8511]

That's so fun! That would be so odd yet healing and familiar and interesting and many different emotions...

[@Mushroom321-]

Sad, yet mustve had mixed emotions ! WOW!! 😮😮

I sadly still live in my childhood room, due to financial issues. But good for you purchasing your childhood home. Your story makes me appreciate my home.

Thank you Dave Coulier!!! At first I wasn't sure about this podcast but now I'm loving it! I enjoy hearing about the stories and the heartfelt moment at the end with the hug.

I had the hugest crush on Scott Weinger as a teen. I cut a page out of one of the Bop or Tiger Beat magazines and got a wallet just so I could carry the picture in it. He’s still so cute! 😍

I need to address this: FRIES ARE FROM BELGIUM AND NOT FROM FRANCE! They are called French Fries because they were invented in the French part of Belgium (we are a divided country where people speak either Flemish or French)

[@BritnyCharron]

[@lillianp-yj6yx]

I love every Full House episode but my favorite seasons are 3,4,5,6 and 7. That's when D.J. starts dating Steve, Becky and Jesse marry and have the twins, Steph is in middle school and meets Gia, Michelle is at her cutest. They hold some of my favorite episodes as well Fraternity Reunion Tanner's Island Those Better Not Be the Days Lust in the Dust Secret Admirer Stephanie Gets Framed Crimes and Michelle's Demeanor Danny in Charge The Wedding 1 and 2! The Volunteer Sisters in Crime Yours Mine and Ours Birthday Blues Silence is Not Golden' I'm Not D.J.
