Geekery: Sam Jackson Reads ‘Stay the F*ck at Home’

Samuel L. Jackson reads the specially written sequel to Go the F*ck to Sleep on this shelter in place episode of Jimmy Killem Live!

While late-night shows aren’t recording in their usual theaters, hosts are broadcasting from their homes using ramshackle sets and green screens and conducting interviews with stars also on lockdown. Kimmel’s interview with Jackson wrapped with a bedtime story for grown-ups. Adam Mansbach (author of the best selling Go the F*ck to Sleep) paired up with Jackson to create a PSA for our current situation.

You can donate to Feeding America here. While you’re staying the heck home you can check out Jackson’s watch list: Kingdom, Power, and Tiger Kingdom.

Jackson isn’t the only celeb reading books to the masses. Here are some that you can share with your kids from an Avenger, a hero of the Rebellion, the Dude, and the woman who ‘killed’ Michael Myers. There are a bunch more on Storyline, Save with Stories, and tomorrow night Dolly Parton kicks off a weekly series of bedtime stories.
