Jesse Williams Teaches Drew Barrymore the Art of Fire-Starting

In a recent episode of The Drew Barrymore Show, actor Jesse Williams shared his expertise in teaching survival skills to his children with the show's host, Drew Barrymore. Last month, Williams, who is known for his role in the TV series The Hotel Costiera, demonstrated how to ignite a flame using a wooden log, kindling, and a stick.

Williams explained that he and his family in Maine often engage in "woodsy, survival stuff," and he wants his kids to have the basics, like knowing how to start a fire, set up a shelter, and navigate their surroundings. Barrymore, who starred as the young pyrokinetic girl Charlie in the 1984 film Firestarter, was impressed by Williams' teachings and eagerly joined in the fire-starting process.

As the two actors discussed the importance of teaching children essential survival skills, Barrymore shared her own childhood experiences, recalling how her mother would give her the choice between going to school or the club. Barrymore joked, "I was like, 'What do you think?'" The conversation then shifted to the topic of social media and its impact on kids, an issue that Barrymore is particularly passionate about.
