Comedian and writer Alison Leiby (The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Broad City, The President Show) comes on to discuss her memoir "I'm a Lot", exploring deeply personal and cultural topics such as abortion, sexuality, relationships, and media representation. From there, she takes us behind the screen and reveals the ways television shapes how we see women, sex, and control. From the glossy chaos of Bravo to the tired tropes of "very special episodes," Allison and Remy unpack how pop culture scripts our ideas about abortion, pleasure, and power—and what happens when comedians rewrite those stories with honesty and humor. It's a sharp, funny, and fearless look at the TV narratives that raised us, and the new ones we're ready to tell.
