You -- -Yes. -Jennifer just received her honorary doctorate from her college. [ Cheers and applause ] Wow. -Yeah. -You are a doctor. -Yeah. Let's drop the honorary. Let's just go with doctor. -I don't know if you can. -You know? Yeah. -I don't think you can drop the honorary. -I think so. I mean -- -Dr. Jennifer Garner. What are you doctor of? Do you mind? -Just look. [ Laughter ] -Just look. -Just look. That's my friend, Mark Bryan. -This is your -- What college was this? -It's Denison University in Granville, Ohio. -Okay. And did you do the speech? -Yes, I gave the commencement address. It was -- It is my alma mater. And I went back and gave the commencement address in May. It was really terrifying... -It was? -...and really special. Have you done it? -I did one, yeah. -Yeah. -College of Saint Rose. You're actually talking to a doctor. -Really? -Oh, yeah. -See? Right here. -Yeah, absolutely. Yeah. -Do you know you're never supposed to high-five on TV? And so, every time someone tries to high-five me, I think, "Oh, my gosh! It's going to look as bad as I think it is!" And then I do it, and it's even worse. -Was that that bad? -What do you think? Was it bad? Here, here, here. -Wait, Dave, can we see it back and see -- Can we see -- Maybe they can get the tape ready, and we can watch it back. [ Slow-motion talking ] -It's me. It's me. -Yeah, it was bad, yeah. -Yeah. [ Laughter ] -Somebody told me that. -But you put a little extra muscle at the end. -Well, 'cause I was just like, "Oh, it's coming. It's coming. I gotta do it." [ Laughter ] "I can't let him down." -Wait, wait, wait, so what do we do? We just acknowledge? -Yeah, we just go, like, "Yeah." -Yeah, okay, yeah. [ Laughter ] But if we have a real -- What if it's done really quickly? -Okay, let's try it. -All right, ready? Like, "Wait, I got my doctor, too. I'm a doctor, too." -"Oh, my God. Me, too." -"Yeah, it's cool." -"Hey." [ Loud slap ] [ Laughter ] Bingo. -Oh, you're right. -It's just me. I think it's me. I think I'm not meant -- Maybe that was a note specific -- -Oh, for you. -Yeah. -I love giving high-fives. -Do you? -Yeah. I'm a high-fiver all the way. -I just miss sometimes. [ Laughter ] -It feels like you're going, and then you give a little extra -- -Yeah. -At the end. -Let's just try it again. Let's just -- Yeah. [ Drum roll ] "Hey, what's up?" [ Laughter ] [ Cymbal crash ] I mean, the thing is, I could kill you with my bare hands -- -No, I know you can, yeah! -...if I wanted to. But I can't high-five. -We'll figure this out next time you're here. We have things I have to talk to you about. -Right, okay. -You're about to film a movie... -Yes. -...that I'm very excited -- Miguel Arteta? -Miguel Arteta. -Yes, I love Miguel Arteta. He's the genius, yeah. -He was the director of, "Alexander and the Very Horrible, Terrible, No Good, Very Bad, Bad Day for Alexander." -And we're going to do this movie, "Yes Day" based on a children's book. It's another family film that is so much fun. It's for Netflix. And it's based on this book by Amy Krouse Rosenthal about -- It's a book that I read to my kids. And my middle daughter was enamored with this book when she was your kids' age. -Yeah. -Because it's about a mom who, one day of the year, says yes all day long. And if you're like me, I-I kill the fun. My -- I am -- I am so lame. I say no to everything. They call me the dragon. They call -- They have all these names for me. So on one day a year, I just say yes. -Okay, to anything? They can be like, "Hey, we want pizza for breakfast." -Yes. "We want pizza with ice cream for breakfast, or with toothpaste, or we want --" -Yeah. -Yeah. Uh-huh. -Really? And you do that? -I do it. Yes, I have for years. -You posted something on Instagram. I follow you. By the way, great follow, by the way. It's very fun, funny. And your cooking segments are great. But this one really made me laugh. This is from your daughter. And it says, well, it says, "When I grow up, I want to be a fun-killing mom just like you." [ Laughter ] -Yep. That's -- That is legit. -That's love right there. That is love right there. -That is love, yes. Uh-huh. -But you were fun. That's not true. I think you're super fun. -Well, having three kids, they have different ideas. A 13-year-old and 7-year-old have a different idea about what they'd like to get out of Yes Day. -Oh, I see. So they have to agree on that. -They have to agree, 'cause it's just one day for every-- So, the one thing they can agree on is basically making an ass out of me. -No, no, no. -So, yeah. For sure. -You're so fun. I mean, what is the organic -- the organic baby food? What is it called? -Oh, it's called, "Once Upon a Farm." -"Once Upon a Farm." I love that you're doing this. -Yeah, it's really cool. It's a really mission-driven business. It's -- It's just trying to get healthier, fresher food to all kids out there. You know, you go to the grocery store, and everyone's like, "Oh, you know, my dog food is human-grade. It's so good, I could eat it." And then you say, "Hey, you want a bite of this baby food?" And you open it. "No! Gross! It's like mush! It's gross! It's disgusting." So, baby food, you know, should not be older than the baby that you're feeding it to. Um, hello. So it's just kind of reorganizing the way we think about it and trying to get it out there. It's WIC approved in five states, meaning that, you know, moms and families on government-funded -- who have government-funded needs in the food area can get it on WIC. -And it's affordable. -Yeah. -Good for you. I like that. -Yeah. -You're always doing something for the kids. You are an ambassador for the Save the Children organization. And that's where you're off to tonight, which I'm -- Thank you for coming here, 'cause I know you have to go out to this gala tonight. Explain to me how did you get involved, and how long has this organization been around? -Well, so, I've been working for Save the Children for the last 11 years. And tonight, we are celebrating the 100th -- It's the centennial. It's the 100th year, Save the Children. [ Cheers and applause ] -That's a big year. -And overall, the organization just tries to help kids in the worst places that no one else wants to go, that no one else can touch. And -- And we've been around for 100 years helping kids in disaster relief, both in the United States and abroad and in, you know, gender equality, trying to get girls educated, trying to get, you know, keep them from getting married when they're babies, trying to -- Infant mortality. And here in the United States, we work, where I work, it's -- We work on rural poverty. -I think you are one of the coolest, most fun people ever. -No, wait, you're so cool. -Your daughter is wrong. Yes. And you do -- 'Cause you do all these fun things. And it's cool. I honestly -- I do follow you. And I've known you for years. But, I mean, besides losing to the taste test -- [ Laughter ] You do have great taste. And we love you. And I want you come back whenever -- whenever you're in town, please. -Jennifer Garner, please. -Thanks for talking to me about it. -Oh, I love it. Jennifer Garner, everybody!
