The chapter delves into the intersection of politics and parenthood through the lens of creating a horror movie about in vitro fertilization. It discusses personal fears, the impact of societal shifts on creative processes, and the authenticity of conveying messages through art. The conversation also touches on themes of single parenthood, the challenges faced by single parents, and the evolving concept of family structures in today's society.
Broad City co-creator Ilana Glazer’s new friendship flick Babes is a no-holds-barred comedy about pregnancy, parenthood and the losses that come with adulthood. Kara talks with Ilana about why women’s bodies are considered “raunchy,” whether YouTube is still a good launch pad for breakout comedians, and how she is rallying Gen Z and Millennial voters to “microdose democracy” through her political non-profit Generator Collective. Plus: why, as a Jewish American, she’s calling for a ceasefire in Gaza.
