"Okay, I loved tonight’s show @pontevedra_concerthall in Jacksonville," the 65-year-old captioned the post. "Really nice audience. Lots of positivity.

The former "Full House" star revealed he was eager to kick off the new year by going back to his standup roots.
"I had no idea I did a two hour set tonight," Saget shared. "I’m back in comedy like I was when I was 26. I guess I’m finding my new voice and loving every moment of it. A’ight, see you in two weeks Jan. 28 & 29 @pbimprov with my brother @therealmikeyoung - And check BobSaget.com for my dates in 2022 – – Goin’ everywhere until I get the special shot. And then probably keep going cause I’m addicted to this s--t. Peace out."

"I really love doing standup now more than I ever have," he explained. "And I don’t talk politics. I don’t talk religion. I just want to make people laugh, you know? … I’m like The Blues Brothers where they would knock on the door and go, ‘We’re on a mission from God.’ I just want to make people have a good time and a good night out."
"I’m getting ready to do a new special so you gotta go on the road and that’s why it’s so much fun going out to places where I get to a long set," Saget continued. "You know, an hour. An hour and a half. Whatever feels right. I get to really play with the audience and try stuff. It’s not just all… I’m not as blue as I used to be. Some people go, ‘Saget, come on. I want ‘Entourage’ Bob.’ And I’m like, ‘OK, I’ll throw him in there.’ But it’s really kind of different versions. It’s me. I’m just being myself more. I love it. I just love it."
'FULL HOUSE' CAST: WHERE ARE THEY NOW?
In addition to his excitement for doing standup in front of an audience, Saget revealed how he gets to be "completely myself" on his podcast called "Bob Saget’s Here For You." According to his website, it’s a "one of a kind stream of consciousness storytelling and real and honest conversations with amazing guests." It was launched in April 2020 during the coronavirus pandemic when stage performances were put on pause.
"It’s what you do, you’re making people feel better… that’s my job," said Saget. "And we get into the thick of it sometimes… It’s really a fun thing to do. And standup, once I was able to get out there safely, I did it. And there’s nothing like it. I’ve been doing it for over 40 years."
