Shannon In The Morning Big Show Daily Podcast

Bob Saget is a very busy man, and because he's so busy it's hard to discuss every project he's pushing! One thing that's for sure: Bob Saget is most comfortable on stage, "I love my standup more now than ever, I don't go political, I don't go religious, and if I do there's 90 disclaimers and I'll say 'here's a bunch of stuff  can't say any more.'"

He proudly declares "there is no across the aisle at my show, everybody's just there will a collective experience."

Bob’s performing at the Count Basie Theater in Red Bank April 11th, the Playstation Theater in Times Square April 13th & The Paramount in Huntington April 14th Get tickets at www.BobSaget.com.

When it comes to his friend and former "Full House" co-star Lori Loughlin and the big college admissions scandal, he understandably had little to say, "zero...I'm in the no comment world, just me and my shrink." When told she was removed from her Hallmark Channel show "When Calls The Heart," he said, "they tried to do that with me on Fuller House, but Danny Tanner won't go...all I do is send love."

Bob directs & stars in the dark comedy “Benjamin” premiering April 23rd – it’s going to be the first original release by Redbox!

Bob hosts “Videos After Dark” on ABC which has new episodes coming later this year. It’s an edgier version of the original show and he remembers a different submission process back in the day! "Back then people were submitting VHS and beta tapes...sorry Millenials, beta existed," is what Bob says about the original "America's Funniest Home Videos" which he hosted for 8 seasons. He says "there's no contest" for the new version, "they get $500 bucks if they upload."

You can also see Bob on season 4 of “Fuller House” is out now on Netflix.

Jeff Garlin is at a point in his life where he can do whatever he pleases -- if he does not want to do press for an upcoming project, he doesn't do it! "At my point in life, if it's not joyful I'm not doing it," he says, but when he likes something or someone, he's all in, and the Big Show is lucky to be on the list of Jeff Garlin's likes!

"I'm here because i like coming here, they give me the list in advance...everything in my life right now is about joy."

He just finished shooting season 10 of 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' but he can't divulge any plot details. "It's my favorite season we've done yet, he proclaims. "Think of you getting pissed in a situation, and you go "i wish...." and Larry (David) did....it's awesome!"

Jeff says he gets excited when Larry David sends the outlines before each season.

Jeff says he just recently had his first alcoholic beverage. "I'm 56 years old," he says, "the other night in Chicago i had my first cocktail....at first it tasted like gasoline...alcohol hasn't been my problem it's been milk shakes!"

He's doing a reality show with Vince Vaughn & Tom Morello but he doesn't even know what the show is about!

Catch Jeff on “Curb Your Enthusiasm” on HBO and & “The Goldbergs” on ABC.
