Welcome, welcome, welcome to Armchair Expert. I'm Dan Shepard, I'm joined by Lilly Padman.

Hi.

Dax Shepard (0:04)

Hi. Today we have a returning friend of ours, who we love her, we love her to death. Joey King, she is an actor.

The Act, The Kissing Booth, three of those, I believe. Bullet Train, Uglies, in the new movie that's slain, it opened number one.

Practical Magic 2, baby!

Dax Shepard (0:22)

Big hit, Practical Magic 2 In theaters now, check it out. Make that third weekend humongous.

We love her. Please enjoy Joey King. We get support from Quince.

You know what I think about a lot? The stuff in my closet, I actually wear. Like, not the trendy pieces. The sweater that goes with everything, or the pants that fit perfectly, the tee you kind of just throw on without even thinking. That's what Quince does. They make those pieces.

Dax Shepard (0:47)

That's right. They have 100% Mongolian cashmere sweaters starting at $60. Organic cotton, merino wool, quality you'd expect from a luxury brand.

Monica Padman (0:58)

Luxury without the luxury price tag. We love that. They skip the middleman, go direct to ethical factories and pass those savings to you. We're talking 50 to 80 percent less than some more brands.

I'm so excited for fall simply because I love my cashmere sweaters from Quince. I also got to add that right before I left Nashville, I was assigned the task of putting all the bedding back on my children's bed, and I got to fold first the Quince sheets and comforter, then unfold them and put them in. The entire time I was spreading it all out, I was like, by God, they really are so soft, it's crazy.

Monica Padman (1:30)

They are. I also have a pair of sheets from Quince that are really, really good. Honestly, what sets Quince apart is that everything feels intentional. These are timeless, versatile pieces designed to be the dependable stuff you reach for day after day. You're not buying something just for right now, you're buying something that's going to be in your rotation for years.

Dax Shepard (1:46)

They've also got hotel quality bedding and bath, kitchen essentials, even furniture. So if you're doing any kind of refresh at home too, same quality, same prices across the board.

Monica Padman (1:57)

Quince just gets it.

This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp. Honestly, if I could just flip a switch overnight and be better at one thing, I'd want to be better at handling stress in a healthier way, like not letting the small stuff snowball into this whole thing where I'm tense for the rest of the day over something that didn't even matter. It came to mind immediately because I know I do it. Someone cuts me off in traffic and somehow I'm still thinking about it at dinner. Two seconds, that's all it was. So yeah, that's what I'm working on. And that's where BetterHelp comes in.

Monica Padman (2:47)

You know how I feel about therapy. It's just necessary. In fact, sometimes I know I'm not supposed to say this. I judge you if you never tried it.

Dax Shepard (2:56)

Better is a feeling defined by you. And for BetterHelp, it's a BetterHelp therapist who really gets you. It's a focus on global, emotional well-being with thousands of therapists and millions of members in over 100 countries. It's progress. And it's getting better at letting the small stuff stay small.

Joey King (3:41)

Hi, don't I look summery?

Monica Padman (3:43)

Summery and cute. It's the vibe.

Joey King (3:46)

Oh, my gosh, you guys.

Joey King (3:48)

How have you been?

Dax Shepard (3:49)

Do you recall what you wore the last time you were here?

Monica Padman (3:51)

Wait, I do.

Dax Shepard (3:52)

You do?

Joey King (3:52)

I know exactly what I wore.

Joey King (3:54)

Tell me what you wore last time.

Joey King (3:55)

I only remember things through actually what people wear. That's how I have like all core memories from when I was a kid. So I'm like, you were wearing a brown Juicy Couture sweatsuit.

Joey King (4:02)

Oh, my God.

Monica Padman (4:03)

You had a braid.

Joey King (4:04)

I had a braid and I had my Jordans on. I had a very long white outfit. I was like white pants, white lab coat vibe almost.
