Abbi Jacobson and Ilana Glazer emphasized the importance of setting boundaries to preserve their friendship while working on 'Broad City.' They maintained a practice of connecting before work tasks, likening it to an 'after-school club.' Their time together was structured, focusing on personal connection, which later influenced their work. Glazer noted that nowadays, their time together feels more intentional and emotionally fulfilling. Jacobson highlighted the need to stay in sync with each other's lives for their comedy to thrive, making space for each other as colleagues was necessary.
"As incredible as it was to make 'Broad City,' we would always make sure to have a little time up top to connect and catch up, even if it was just from 12 hours ago."
"But at the time it was very much slotted in to catch up, and things would always make their way into the comedy, which is cool, but it's not the same as it being its own, just for the sake of its own beauty, you know?"
