When Barrymore asked Affleck about his most recent skinny dipping experience, he shared, "My wife and I went on a little vacation recently, we went in the pool — I don't know if that counts as skinny dipping. It wasn't, like, an '80s college movie or anything." Barrymore then prodded, "Well, were you naked?" to which Affleck responded, "We were naked in the pool, yes," eliciting cheers from the audience. To this, Barrymore quipped, "I'm so glad. There's nothing more beautiful than swimming in that birthday suit!".

'Jennifer just eats whatever she wants'
Affleck also shared his thoughts on the impressive work ethic of his ex-fiancee Lopez when it comes to her appearance, as reported by People. Affleck confessed, "Let me tell you something that's gonna upset you. Jennifer just eats whatever she wants. Whatever she wants. She eats cookies, ice cream, everything." Barrymore was visibly flabbergasted and asked if it was due to working out. To this, Affleck replied, "She works out. I work out too, but I don't magically appear to be 20 years old, you know what I mean? With perfect skin and the whole thing."
Although he praised Lopez's work ethic and discipline, Affleck acknowledged that there's a 'superhuman element' to her appearance. "There's no taking away of the work ethic — the work ethic is real, the discipline is real — but also the superhuman thing is real," he explained. "She's the most gorgeous woman in the world. She looks spectacular."
'I talk in circles'
Affleck revealed during his interview on 'The Drew Barrymore Show' that his wife, Jennifer Lopez, has never expressed what she would change about him given the chance. However, he offered his own insight into what she might want him to work on.
"If she had to choose something, she would probably want to cultivate brevity in the way I speak," Affleck confessed before adding "I don't know if you've noticed, but I go on and on and on. I talk in circles." Although Lopez has never expressed this to him directly, Affleck surmised that it could be an area for improvement. "She's never said that to me, but that would be my guess," he added.
