Remembering America’s dad: ‘Bob Saget’s Here For You’ features honest conversations with some of your favorite stars
TV’s favorite dad, Bob Saget, passed away at age 65 over the weekend. We’re remembering the Full House star through his comedy legacy and interview podcast, “Bob Saget’s Here For You.” On this series, Bob was joined by friends and celebrity guests for engaging chats. Episodes gave listeners a glimpse of Bob’s mind through raw conversations filled with empathy, humor, fatherly advice, and more.
In the podcast’s description, Bob is described as “the irreverent funny guy who’s always there when you need a laugh,” ready to riff through random tangents then get back to whatever was being discussed before. Since 2020, Bob released 130 episodes, under two hours each. Tune into the series in any order for different guests each episode, with recent episodes up until the first week of January 2022.
The series is brimming with Full House cameos. Bob was joined by his TV daughter Candace Cameron Bure to chat about their time on Full House, the 27+ Hallmark films she’s starred in, and her winery, among various other projects. Netflix’s Fuller House co-star McKenna Grace stopped by in November 2021, and they talked about working together, the actress’ start on a soap, and her recent role in Ghostbusters: Afterlife.
In 2020, John Stamos traded Full House stories with Bob, they talked about sharing the same therapist, remembered working with Don Rickles, and how to take Twitter with a grain of salt.
Scott Weinger played Steve on the show and talked about voicing Disney’s Aladdin, working with Robin Williams, stealing Danny Tanner’s boat, and more. Jodie Sweetin, Bob’s other on-screen daughter, filled Bob in on being a mother to two kids, and the two reminisced about their favorite Full House memories. Andrea Barber played the next-door neighbor Kimmy Gibbler and shared her post-Full House career, including writing a book and starring in Nickelodeon’s That Girl Lay Lay.
On a recent episode, we heard from B.J. Novak, and why he called Bob’s manager when he was 21 years old for a school project that turned into a friendship spanning two decades. Listeners can also hear from comedy legends like Nikki Glaser, Seinfeld’s Jason Alexander, Jim Gaffigan, SNL‘s Michael Che, and Cedric the Entertainer. He also talked to musicians like Ben Folds, Goo Goo Dolls’ frontman Johnny Rzeznik, and Josh Groban. In late 2021, Bob sat down with businessman and political candidate Andrew Yang. Jason Sudeikis and Bob unpacked positivity and the show Ted Lasso before the show swept up awards in 2021 and beyond.
This series is presented by Bob Saget and All Things Comedy. To brighten the mood while grieving and commemorating one of comedy’s finest, “Bob Saget’s Here For You,” is streaming now wherever you listen to your podcasts.
