El Hormiguero closed its season on Antena 3 as the most successful run in the show’s history, averaging 2.4 million viewers and capturing a 16.8 percent share. For its final episode before the summer break, Pablo Motos welcomed Santiago Segura to the set, where the actor came to promote his latest film. In addition, the presenter signed off with a couple of practical tips for the audience.
Before the credits rolled, Motos paused to share a few summer ideas. In an exchange that echoed his usual mix of warmth and candor, he reflected on recent conversations with notable guests and set expectations for the weeks ahead. Last week, the host had sat down with Pedro Sánchez and Alberto Núñez Feijóo, leaving a public message about the upcoming 23J elections that urged viewers not to let political views divide friendships: “There are elections in a month. Keep your ideology from overshadowing your personal ties.” [Source: Antena 3]
The conversation then veered toward a maxim about dialogue within friendships. The advice suggested that debating politics with a friend can easily become counterproductive, and it proposed a simpler barometer for discourse—whether there is aioli on the table as a lighthearted test of common ground. The takeaway was clear: if possible, ease up on political quarrels in everyday chats. [Source: Antena 3]
The second piece of guidance centered on technology use. Motos offered a candid rule of thumb: practice a form of technological fasting. He proposed moving through part of the day without a smartphone, navigating without GPS, and even asking a local for directions when needed. The message emphasized rediscovering the joy of human connection—conversation, strolls, and a fresh perspective on life, unfiltered by screens. [Source: Antena 3]
Viewers were reminded that stepping away from constant notifications can reveal new ways to enjoy simple moments and spontaneous interactions. The final message resonated with a broader audience: balance screens with real-world experiences, a principle that aligns with many well-known digital wellbeing perspectives. [Source: Antena 3]
