Katy Perry, Gayle King, and Jeff Bezos' fiancée, Lauren Sanchez, became the first group of women ever to visit outer space in a giant penis. I mean, that is a penis, right? On Amazon, they would call it a personal massager, but it's a penis. On this episode of The Commercial Break...
there's these dramatic examples of like, yeah, I sent my toddler, you know, into the gas station by herself or whatever. But then there's two just going like, yeah, you can like take care of yourself. Like you can, you can make yourself a bowl of cereal if I'm not awake yet and you're hungry and all these things. And I think it's like, you can start small and once they start to get those feelings of confidence and independence, it's infectious for them, I think. And And now, now my daughter, she'll ask for like a little too much, you know, she'll be like, can I, you know, like she'll, and we'll go, maybe when you're a little bit older and you know, whatever, but Hey dad, can I buy a pack of cigarettes?
Exactly. The next episode of the commercial break starts now.
Wow, you look terrible, Danny Ricker. Danny will be joining us in just a few minutes here, but he's got the bona fides. He's an executive producer, co-executive producer at Jimmy Kimmel.
I know, that's big.
And when asked if he could do our show, I said, sure, why not? Co-executive producer of Jimmy Kimmel. I'm not going to shy away from saying it. I said, yeah, okay, sure. And then I started to read his book. They gave us a copy, an advanced copy. It's on sale today, but I got an advanced copy. And as a father, as a parent, this book will leave you probably stitches, probably crying, and with a little bit of good advice along the way. Because kids are a pain in the ass. And anyone that has them knows it's a pain in the ass. And he gives us a few... He gives his... tips and tricks on how to, like, you know, declutter the mind, the soul, and maybe your house, and make life a little bit easier. Some cheat codes, if you will, as a father himself.
It's a really well-written book. It is. And I'm glad that we're bringing him in today so that we have an opportunity to chat with him about all those things, about Jimmy Kimmel and about the book, and life, love, and the pursuit of happiness, if you don't mind, Chrissy. That's what this show is all about. Life, love, and the pursuit of happiness.
Speaking of children, they are...
Pursue your dreams. Live, laugh, love. My breasts. The Instagram. The Instagram never fails to surprise me. And having children, I am so terrified. I'm glad. Here's the thing. There's a lot of pushback right now. And I'm digging this. on children and cell phones, adults and cell phones, social media in general. I'm not saying throw the baby out with the bathwater. I do think social media is entertaining. I spend a lot of time on it, mainly for the show, but I spend a lot of time on it. And I think it's entertaining. But I also think that at least most of the time, I have my head on my shoulders and I know that it's just entertainment. And if you would see my algorithm, you would know I'm not getting caught up in, you know,
Who's got the nice car and who's got the nice house and who's on the next vacation? I'm really looking at like the dregs of the earth. I mean, people who are not well. Yeah. On the Internet. So when I watch this, I'm like, this is entertainment. This is just entertainment. And everyone thinks they are an entertainer. And there are some people that are just having like a constant conversation going on with that Instagram. And it's surprising to me. They need a friend desperately. But I'm raising these children and it scares the shit out of me because I know that there's the next thing is coming. What is the next thing? Probably some AI combination of reality and unreality and all that. And they're like, some of them were on Easter vacation last week and into this week.
And why we have so many vacations, I don't know. Can't we just do it like we used to do it? Where it's one long vacation every couple of months instead of these like four or five day vacations every month?
