It's Open with Ilana Glazer

Ilana takes us on a coming-of-age journey through the eyes her pelvic floor. In a very personal episode, Ilana shares about her chronic pain from ages 4 to 24, placing this experience into the context of the patriarchal culture of the 90’s and 2000’s, and how her discovery of the appropriate diagnosis and treatment combined with the creation of Broad City as a creative vessel helped her to finally emerge pain free and empowered.

Amanda is also the author of When We’re in Charge, an award-winning leadership guide for Millennials and Gen Z. Join Ilana and Amanda as they discuss the fact that *the resistance is real*, how the culture and FACE of the Democratic party is about to change dramatically, and how the most appropriate symbol of Judaism is actually the question mark. Plus, how all good romance novels begin with a steamy one-night stand 😳

Ilana connects with creator, writer, actor, director (and LA-based Brooklynite) Zoe Lister Jones. Zoe is a creative star that pushes the envelope for women-lead film & TV production crews and is bringing female sexuality to the screen in a fresh and expansive way in her films BAND-AID and HOW IT ENDS and the series SLIP. On It’s Open, Zoe and Ilana share about their own sexual awakenings in their 30s and their growth to recognize and identify with queerness and sexuality as a portal… all while learning a thing or two from Gen Z 🙌🏼
