DAVEED DIGGS: Hi, I'm Daveed Diggs. And I'm going to share with you some things that I've been obsessed with during quarantine.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

There's no reason to get dressed during quarantine. So me and one of my co-producers, Jess Calder, we try to outdo each other in a fashion battle. She's just a very fashionable person. And so I am in competition with her. But I don't think she's really in competition with me.

But she was actually the one who told me about these masks. They're N95 masks, KN95 masks that come in like 100 different colors. So I can always match my outfit. But they have adjustable ear straps and a nose bridge. So (CHUCKLING) I'm a big supporter of these masks because you've got to make it fashion.

These adjustable free weights, but those have been really very, very helpful. It allows you to do a lot of different kinds of workouts. At this point, it's probably more functional than any gym I used to go to.

Third thing I've been obsessed with during quarantine is audio equipment. We had some music from my band Clipping come out. But mostly, I'm obsessed with kind of sitting in my studio and making music. Any excuse I have to be in my home studio because, you know, we don't gather the same way we used to.

I've been trying to be outside and hike as much as possible, which is one of the great things that led to this collaboration with Nature Valley, to celebrate the fact that they helped restore access to 10,000 miles of trails in national parks. I like the bars, I do. I'm like a fan of the peanut butter.

They've been around for a long time, you know? I used to eat them growing up. There's maybe some sort of nostalgia attached to it as well.
