I Might Regret This was written after I had fallen in love and then been heartbroken. "It's way easier for me to like put that experience into Abby Abrams on Broad City," she said of writing the book about her break-up with comedian Abbi Jacoby. Sam Kirby, one of the main people who helped write the book, is also a co-star from Broad City.
1. How to know when it’s time to get out or stick it out – and the quit that set Abbi on course to meet Ilana and create Broad City.
2. The life lessons of improv comedy: How to get out of your head, trust your choices, and make something together.
3. Abbi and Abby share similar but opposite stories about relationships that changed their lives (and whether to tuck or untuck shirts).
4. Why reimagining A League of Their Own was the Next Right project for Abbi – and how its label as a “queer show” frustrates her.
