First up is Joel Edgerton, Australian actor and director known for his roles in films such as "The Great Gatsby" and "Loving." Seth and Joel discuss his latest film, "Boy Erased," which Edgerton wrote, directed, and starred in.

They also touch on Wood's advocacy work for survivors of sexual assault, and how that ties into her work on "Westworld."

Finally, Ina Garten, the beloved chef and author behind the "Barefoot Contessa" cookbooks, stops by to share some holiday recipes with Seth. She demonstrates how to make a roasted salmon dish, as well as a decadent chocolate dessert. Ina and Seth also discuss her approach to cooking and entertaining, and how it has evolved over the years. Garten explains that while her recipes may seem fancy and complicated, they are actually quite simple and accessible to home cooks of all skill levels.

Throughout the episode, Seth also covers current events in politics and pop culture, offering his signature witty commentary on the day's news. He tackles everything from the latest scandals in the entertainment industry to the ongoing protests in Hong Kong.
