I pronounce them identically, except for perhaps a bit of syllabification of the first in preparation for the contraction.
To me, et, it changes with the emphasis depending on what one is trying to point out, so:
“There’s no there there”, or
“There’s no there there”, or
“There’s no there there, or just a flat, unemphatic
“There’s no there there”.
