- On Thursday, actress Anna Faris appeared on Chelsea Handler's Dear Chelsea podcast to discuss parenting her religious 14-year-old son, Jack, revealing they hold differing views on faith.

- Faris detailed challenging Jack on topics like pro-life views and 'mega pastors,' describing these as "long conversations" in which she discusses right-wing politics associated with Christianity.
- Despite their differences, Faris expressed appreciation that Jack is "examining religion the way he is in terms of recognizing hypocrisy," valuing their open dialogue.
- Faris described Jack as "solid as a tugboat, emotionally," noting he "just doesn't get easily jarred" and handles situations well, underscoring their strong emotional foundation.
