209. Catching Up with Andrea Barber

"I\u2019m an open book. I have no shame about anything I have gone through or felt."

Andrea Barber \u2014 perhaps best known as Kimmy Gibbler on\xa0Full House and the Netflix revival\xa0Fuller House \u2014 is back on the Ali on the Run Show! And this time, she's a published author! Andrea's first book, Full Circle: From Hollywood to Real Life and Back Again, came out late last year, and it's a hit. (I'm not just saying this because Andrea is a friend: This book is fantastic.) Full Circle isn't a salacious Hollywood memoir or tell-all. It's real and it's honest, and in it, Andrea shares her story in a raw, visceral way. On this episode, Andrea and I catch up on what's new in her life \u2014 including why her home is filled with thousands of boxes of Girl Scout Cookies, what it was like wrapping the fifth and final season of Fuller House, and where she's at with running right now\xa0\u2014 and we talk about some of my favorite parts of the book, including her uncensored stories about depression, anxiety, and divorce.
