the show thank you so much i am i guess i'm really excited to talk to you and and very happy to be here how are you around the spicy stuff because one time i did see you eat it looked like a serrano pepper out of your garden and you immediately chased it with a garden hose how are you feeling possibly reliving that trauma here today i don't add sriracha to my mac and cheese i'll just say that i i am just so happy with vanilla and chocolate but okay but that's all right i'm i'm a i'm an adventurous person classic hot sauce it says [Music] i'm fine it's not a problem [Music] so your new movie yesterday mirrors the real-life garner family tradition inspired by the 2009 children's book whereby for one day only you'll acquiesce to your kids demands whether it's eating ice cream for breakfast or camping out in the backyard how did that annual holiday tradition originate do you have any advice for the parents who may be inspired to do the same after seeing this film it originated because of the 2009 book i also had a 2009 edition her name is serafina it was her favorite and because she really dreamed of having her own yesterday to the point that i finally had to give it to her follow amy kraus rosenthal's children book yesterday that's the instruction manual and then can you talk us through how to make a froot loop pizza and was that a dish that you were able to perfect on your first try or did it take some experimentation froot loop pizza you ready pizza dough marshmallow fluff into the oven very hot oven very hot until the pizza dough is cooked and the fluff is browned it comes out sprinkle liberally with fruit loops and then [Music] enjoy no problem so as a leading lady turned startup co-founder with once upon a farm i'm curious your perspective on a question that we once asked your dude where's my car co-star ashton kutcher where are pitch meetings more likely to be parodies of themselves hollywood or silicon valley really great question definitely i've been in pitch meetings where everyone is talking lingo and you just feel like do you guys get how do you do you get that you're a parody of yourselves but you know we're all in it together and so i have a laugh but when i go to grocery store meetings and i make sales calls to different grocery stores they talk in another language too don't think that they don't they're like you know this could do really well in the wet wall and i'm like what's a wet wall it's where they are you know sprinkling spraying down produce and it's there's a whole other world in of cpg what's the most mind-blowing thing you've learned making food at commercial scale you know from the processes to the relationships it's such a fascinating industry from the outside looking in i love the supply chain of it i love actually um going you know my farm is part of the supply chain my family farm in oklahoma and i love watching how we choose what to plant because we don't have refrigeration on our farm we have to choose to plant sweet potatoes pumpkin squash something that can be transported at its peak ripeness so that it can immediately be cold pressure processed put into a pouch and sent straight to grocery stores right away and that's that's just really cool and thinking about all the different ways that fruit and vegetables excuse me come to us and trying to do it in a way that impacts the environment the least but also gives you the most robust organic biodynamic you know farm fresh goodies for your babies not to fish for free consulting but we have been playing around with this idea of a hot sauce for kids as an expert in the category and a parent yourself do you have any words of warning or wisdom before we dive into that i wouldn't spend a ton of money on it sean [Music] [Laughter] [Music] i think i am doing really well that's the first one i really mm-hmm catching a little burn it's just a little it's easy though mm-hmm so for a lot of jennifer garner fans the entry point was the charismatic disguise wearing taekwondo practicing cia agents sydney bristow and alias the show was j.j abrams directorial debut and cenophiles to this day can see the alias blueprint in jj's later work at what point did you recognize or buy into him as an action sequence directorial maestro oh my gosh i'm so happy to know that people can see alias in his later work i didn't i've never heard that before that i'm gonna take even more of a personal ownership of everything jj then um jj knew exactly what he wanted to do he was a super clear director from day one i think he writes as if he's going to direct and has always written with the visual in mind and also the music in mind he's such a musician that it's really easy to see the music and how he wants something spoken or done and the first time i was on a harness and climbing a wall um he and i were both kind of like oh my gosh this is this doesn't happen in felicity and this has never happened to me before but we were both so up for it and so eager and excited for the challenge and he always had the camera moving no matter what it was always like zooming next to me zooming past he just was never afraid of just going for the shot hellfire's devil okay that doesn't sound very methodist [Music] no problem there we go so i know that farming has been a theme throughout your life from your mom's farm in locust grove oklahoma to the orchard that you have in california to even co-founding a farm to high chair baby food company as a seasoned beekeeper do you have a favorite fun fact or story about the fascinating and complicated life inside the hive you only need to know a little kid's version of what happens inside a hive to be able to put on a whole get up and open a hive and see it come to life my kids when they were babies could say drone worker let's spot the queen guard bees it's like they are the most fascinating coolest creatures on the planet one of the byproducts of this pandemic is an explosion in an apartment agriculture do you have any pro tips for uh people who are just now starting to embrace the green thumb lifestyle i would say the most important thing is just to do it experiment with how much water you give them experiment from with what you put in the soil and it's just there's nothing better especially if you have little kids little kids are more apt to eat something they've grown and they can pick fresh off the vine themselves than anything else that's the best way to teach veggies doing some taekwondo yeah knocking out these wings uh-huh i'm a hot winged ninja i see it fine [Music] that's fine okay jennifer we have a recurring segment on our show called explain that graham we're doing deep dive on our guests instagram pull interesting pictures that need more context and one pervasive theme throughout your feed is nature inspo particularly these remote cabins does that stem from a longing or catharsis and escaping the eye of hollywood or is that just uh reading way too much into that i have a little bit of a an apocalyptic fear um and really i think i would like to know that i could live off the grid on an island somewhere that was always in a beautiful fall colors so yeah do you have a lasting memory from sitting courtside with steve ballmer he really does seem to let it loose during the clippers games he was amazing the bombers are incredibly um focused on early education in the united states as am i and so i was there on behalf of save the children and as a friend of theirs letting me bounce ideas off or donating to different projects that we might be starting up or interested in so we would sit and talk really intensely or at least connie and i would about kids and poverty in america and rural poverty and birth to five in the brain science and then steve would get up and just like um so yes it was a memorable that was really fun [Music] i have no problems sean this is nothing [Music] i'm trying to get a read trying to get a read jennifer it just seems like you can poke her face yeah no i am i am poker facing so 13 going on 30 is one of the most enduring cult classics of the early 2000s even recently being referenced in ariana grande's thank you next music video have you given any thought to why that film in particular its special ingredient that's allowed it to have this everlasting place in the pop culture zeitgeist um i think there's no bigger wish fulfillment for a 13 year old than to be 30 and conversely i don't know any you know 30 year old who wouldn't like to dip back into her 13 year old body and see what that was like so i don't know there's just that kind of there's a it's just so whimsical and it was actually such a perfectly constructed movie by the late great beautiful soul gary winick playing generique had so and continues to have so much meaning for me and it did at the time as as well and i don't know that i like really carried the theme with me as much as i carried the feeling of playfulness you know that i had in my body while we made that movie and just the ambulance of that character and of that time are all kind of connected in this warm hazy fuzzy rosy glow [Music] oh honey badger doesn't give a [ __ ] i mean that's what it says and it's true of the sauce yeah i feel that i'm aware of honey badger [Music] i feel that okay jennifer it's not every day that we're graced with the presence of an ambassador from west virginia and that's a distinction that was actually made official when in 2007 you were named west virginian of the year by the charleston daily mail every year your hometown of charleston hosts the vandalia gathering celebrating the uniqueness of west virginia's mountain culture how would you distill the mountaineer lifestyle to a complete outsider um gosh um [Music] i feel like you really held back until number seven and then there's a lot of that honey bad it's a steep ramp up yep it's a steep ramp up um you really had me feeling kind of cocky didn't ya um okay well i will tell you about the vandalia festival that my memory of it i mean i would go to a vandalia well vandalia festival right now and take you with me because i know you'd love it um it's just like bluegrass bands playing under every tree tall tale contest where people tell you the most charming charismatic version of a tall tale you ever heard but anyway the mountaineer um attitude is mountaineers are always free don't step on me leave me alone um just leave us in our mountains i'm a little more like hey y'all you know come on in have some honey badger on the topic of those tall tales how much did the folklore affect you or touch you as like a child like did you ever have uh nightmares about the pleasant point mothman or anything like that i love the pleasant point mothman um i don't know i definitely believe there's no good story that can't be improved upon um my dad worked for union carbide and they had a camp for all the kids and it was called carbide camp and um there was somebody there who told ghost stories and we were deep in the mountains somewhere just being filled with carbide propaganda and singing songs about this chemical plant um and yeah i was terrified of the monsters that they told us about that hid in the woods which is the union's superior regional delicacy the fried bologna sandwich or the pepperoni roll pepperoni roll hands down gino's thank you i'm a little nervous now after that honey badger whoa going in the only way out is through sean i'm just following you through the door hot that's fine yeah that's fine take a lap take a lap that's warm hot that's very hot okay so here at first we feast we're acutely aware of the way that the celebrity world has flooded the food world in recent years with varying degrees of credibility but your bonafides they're just as credible as they are humble as proven by your pretend cooking show i've seen you try the cook's illustrated method of softening butter with a warm glass are there any other mind-blowing kitchen hacks you think everyone should know up your butt sean i get it i get it flashbacks yeah um colleen colleen um okay let's think about kitchen hacks the only other one i can think of is also to do with softening butter because it is so important and vital that you start with root temperature ingredients if you're going to bake so if you have eggs that are cold from the fridge put them in a bowl of lukewarm water and if you need softened butter right away you don't want to wait for the you don't want to wait at all then you you can you can um put it through a cheese grater how big a deal was it for you to get a inagarten cosine she actually says she is adorable and smart and not at all performing that's just who she is i think she's really special she would never do this to me sean i know when she would be appalled at this behavior actually she wouldn't she would find it funny i mean the fact that i know garten whom i revere and who taught all of us to cook the whole world when i'm doing the pretend cooking show it's an homage obviously to aina it's just more than i can handle you've said that you're a geek for food tv what's uh what's your what's your all-time cooking show's mount rushmore barefoot contessa in the kitchen with martha i mean i can do giada bobby flay can be fun i mean i can do them all i i mean obviously it's like julia julia freaking child but i feel great not fun but i think after the last one almost like a vacation yep oh no the kick happens later oh no no no so i know that you didn't always have hollywood aspirations in fact when you were a young girl you were more drawn to regional theater and dance studying ballet for 10 years at the peak of your dance training what's your personal record for consecutive pirouettes i've never been a good pure wetter and that's why i'm sitting here in this chair instead of just happily teaching ballet somewhere in a little studio in west virginia what advice would you give out for picking out the perfect pair of point shoes i don't i think don't just take whatever points you you have at face value don't be afraid to cut out the shank at three quarters and to break the box and um yeah that's what i would say technical vernacular pro tip from jennifer garner and then finally as theaters prepare to open can you provide us with a a quintessential classic production that you'd recommend to someone who's never been to a ballet before in their lives oh my gosh so many maybe c rapmanski's firebird maybe see don quixote because it's just so vibrant and nc isabella boylston as ketri [Music] i'm shaking but other than that cheers [Music] cheers oh misery but going back in going back in jennifer garner committed to the process okay okay jennifer garner here we are at the closing credits of our spice packed meal but before you go i want to touch on one last thing and that's a commencement speech that you gave at your alma mater denison university in your parting words to the graduating class of 2019 you told students that they're lucky if their life is quote unquote 65 percent happy while your brain drowns in hot sauce i have to ask why is it important to try to live at 65 happiness and where did you come up with that specific number [Music] well um um well i i mean i just think that it's easy to just kind of always be looking ahead and saying when i get x i'm going to be happy when i get why especially right after you graduate from college you know you don't have like that goal that's easily achievable and you think well when i finally get my own apartment when i finally get engaged whatever it is but it's like just be happy now and i think this last year has been a really um a really good that last one was very [Laughter] the last year has been um you know has taken care of a lot of that for a lot of people anyway wise words from jennifer gardner through the pain of it all but still standing after her bout with the wings of death and now jennifer garner there's nothing left to do but roll out the red carpet for you this camera that camera probably just the camera you're looking at though let the people know what you have going on in your life um i have a movie opening it's uh starting march 12th on netflix it's called yesterday and um it is about saying yes and um that's mostly something that i would recommend unless this guy calls you it's just a joy-filled colorful day of yes after a year of no that's all great job jennifer great job america thank you you asked really great questions really great interview thank you thank you jennifer i appreciate that and uh i i hope in the end it was all it was all worth it to go through it you know just wish i could hug your neck with my hands

As a West Virginian myself, I'm happy Jennifer got to talk about our home state. Not very often it gets mentioned in a positive light.

Although one nitpick: It's "Point Pleasant" that's home to the Mothman. Not "Pleasant Point"!

[u/OpenBookExam]

"I wouldn't spend a ton of money on it, Sean." Wise words, Jenn, wise words.

[u/TheBoyisBackinTown]

She's absolutely ageless. Props for the great b-camera, too.

"I wish I could hug your neck... with my hands!" and the way she said "Honey badger don't give a... fuck." made me crack up.

[u/Ralph-Hinkley]

Great episode! I love her bubbliness and back and forth with Sean, and the way he just let her talk. That's the marks of a great interviwer when he asks the question, and is just along for the ride.

I also love it when a guest compliments Sean on his interview skills.

[u/Zentripetal]

That was great. Sounds like she's doing a lot of good out there. Nice guest.

I gotta say Sean's lips were looking mad pink after da bomb lol https://i.imgur.com/ayrolVt.png

[u/c00pdawg]

Jennifer Garner has always had such mom kindergarten teacher energy. 💯

[u/CareBearDontCare]

Wonder who the shadow is in the background just as she was introducing the Honey Badger sauce.

[u/specs87]

That was a great interview and wish it was in person even more now. First really good reactions to the sauces in a while too. But I did not expect one episode to cover topics such as:

Supply chains
Bees
Steve Balmer
Ballet

[u/tofeman]

Loving that they edited lens flair into her Camera 2 shot when she’s talking about JJ Abrams
