We all have to grow up eventually. As Jordan Peterson suggests, this is easiest to do if you have children. New mother Ilana Glazer, known for playing a raunchy single girl in the sitcom Broad City, probably knows this better than anybody. But becoming a mother doesn’t mean giving up toilet humor. In fact, it’s probably more relevant than ever before.
Now mother to a 2-year-old, Glazer has brought her irreverent humor to Babes, a comedy about friendship, motherhood, and unexpected pregnancy. Alongside fellow mother and longtime friend Michelle Buteau, Glazer plays Eden, a yoga instructor whose hobbies include psychedelics and casual sex. Her best friend, Dawn (Buteau), is recently a mother of two who can’t seem to breastfeed her infant or hold down a nanny for her 4-year-old.
