As a comedian with a strong background as a live performer, the stage played a considerable part in Saget's life. As it happens, he spent much of his last year on a truly epic stand-up comedy tour. He performed his final show in Jacksonville, Florida, and punctuated it with the now bittersweet Twitter declaration that he was, "Happily addicted again to this s***." The nationwide tour began in September of 2021 and was to continue until the spring of 2022. Saget was clearly psyched about his return to stand-up. "I had no idea I did a two hour set tonight," he wrote in his final Instagram post. "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."
Along with his stand-up tour, Saget spent much of the past year working on his podcast, "Here for You," on which he and his guests discuss all of the twists and turns that come with life and how to handle them. Episodes of the show have featured a wide variety of Saget's friends, including fellow comedians George Lopez and Bill Burr.
Bob Saget's return to his stand-up roots had him in high spirits for the last 12 months of his life, and in a July 2021 interview with Alabama Life and Culture, he reflected on his career — both the illustrious past, and his future plans.
"Yeah, I kind of got my dreams, when it came to getting-known and getting success, but I always thought I had so much more than I wanted," Saget said. "And I'm still always hungry. I never would retire. [...] I'm always working. Work is something that gives me fulfillment."
