Full House: S1E21: Mad Money (Jesse's Musical Career Journey Series)

Punky Power: An Unofficial Punky Brewster Podcast and Together We're Gonna Find Our Way: An Unofficial Silver Spoons Podcast

Happy Full House Friday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today for the month of June, I'm kicking off the JESSE MUSICAL CAREER JOURNEY starting with Full House S1E21: Mad Money, which aired on April 29, 1988. In this episode Joey's mother gives him an old savings bond. He tries to pay Danny back an eleven-year-old loan, but Danny refuses. Meanwhile, Jesse has a gig as an Elvis impersonator. I enjoyed this episode, it really kicked off Jesse's love or should say or should I say obsession with Elvis Presley. Joey and Danny squabbling over Joey owing Danny $800 from a time Joey needed to fix his car and forgot to pay it back after he sees Joey going on a spending spree when he finds out his Mom had an old savings bond for him worth $5000. I was surprised Danny had that kind of money to give away in 1978. After all, at the time he would have just recently become a father to DJ and they weren't living in that house yet. He was still in college, I'm sure and married to Pam. Join me next week when I cover the next episode in the Series, Full House S5E5: The King and I, which aired on October 15, 1991. In this episode Jesse is on the verge of a record deal and ditches the annual Tanner family picnic to write a hit song. Struggling to find inspiration, help might be coming from an unlikely source. Have a great weekend everyone!
