After the U.S. Midterms 2026, now known as the Blunami, Ilana unpacks the last 10 years (and really, 407 years) of fascism that have led to this moment. The U.S.’s spectrum from fascism to democracy for different kinds of Americans, at different times in history, has become exposed. And now it is so transparent, so obvious, that the veil has lifted, and Americans are making the country what it always purported to be: a country for the people and by the people. Looking ahead, it’s time to step...
In Season 1 of It’s Open, we had the privilege of hosting Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, aka AOC. She and Ilana talk about how, when being sexualized as Millennial teenagers in the early-2000s by full-grown men, their instincts were correct: this is not normal, and decades later, revealed itself to be connected to the dark truth of the Epstein files and worldwide child sex trafficking rings. We see here how the casual trauma of these constant occurrences stayed with both middle-aged ...
Ilana sits down with renowned NYC-based national touring stand-ups and longggg time comedy buddies Nimesh Patel and Mookie Thompson to reminisce hard about the good ol’ days coming up as young comics in the Brooklyn and Manhattan comedy scenes of the 2010s. Celebrating the Netflix release of Nimesh’s fourth full-length comedy special BUY THE DIP, directed by Mookie, the group confronts getting OLD (aka middle-aged), the liabilities of Long Island, and Indian Americans on a Royal Caribbean cru...
Texas Senator James Talarico & Ilana Glazer talk about how faith is a practice, not something that just happens. And when you practice hope, a higher power starts to emerge — however you see it, whatever you call it — that deepens a person’s love for the people. This practice of hope, faith, & trust is what feels like the foundation for the Blue-nami of the Midterms 2026. Love won this election season, and now, the real work can begin.
Washington State Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal is one of the realest elected officials out there right now. Currently serving her fifth term, she’s an immigrant who came to the US at age 16 all by herself, and, when elected in 2016, became the first Indian American woman to serve in the U.S. House of Representatives. The congresswoman led the wave of progressive fighters 2 years ahead of AOC’s 2018 election, and is an OG member of The Squad. Japayal is a leader on immigration reform, M...
Today, Ilana sits down with her brilliant and dear friend, Erica Chidi. Erica lives, works, and creates at the intersections of human health, culture, and technology. She is a full-spectrum doula, the co-founder and former CEO of the digital sexual and reproductive health platform LOOM (acquired by Perelel Health in 2024), author of NURTURE: A MODERN GUIDE TO PREGNANCY, BIRTH, EARLY MOTHERHOOD—AND TRUSTING YOURSELF AND YOUR BODY, current SVP of Brand & Editorial Content at the digital med...
Today on It’s Open, Ilana is joined by the sensational, the trailblazing, the thought leader and activist: Miss Peppermint. She was the first openly trans contestant on RUPAUL’S DRAG RACE, the first trans woman to originate a lead Broadway role for the musical HEAD OVER HEELS, is a time Out Magazine’s Out100 honoree, and Pep is the biographical subject of the documentary film A DEEPER LOVE: THE STORY OF MISS PEPPERMINT. We are so proud of herrr. Peppermint and Ilana get right into it, unpac...
