It is time to celebrate Candace’s favorite time of the year - Christmas! We are kicking off our Christmas Series with Andrea Barber. Whenever Candace and Andrea get together, their conversations are full of laughter and memories from their extensive time together on the set of Full House and Fuller House.

Today’s conversation is no different. Andrea joins Candace remote via video, as Candace asks Andrea about her favorite Christmas dishes, memories, gifts, and traditions. They also discuss Andrea’s upcoming debut in a Christmas Movie produced by Candace called Christmas on Candy Cane Lane, which premieres December 3, 2022 on the Great American Family Network.
