Tummy Time and The Tonight Show with Liz Glazer

In this special snack episode of Parenting is a Joke, Ophira Eisenberg reconnects with comedian Liz Glazer to celebrate the release of Liz’s new stand-up special Do You Know Who I’m Not?—a follow-up to her acclaimed debut tackling the heartbreak of stillbirth. Liz shares what it’s like raising a two-year-old, obsessively documenting milestones like her daughter renaming bottles “babush,” and navigating the guilt and chaos of being a working comic mom. They unpack the newborn stage's anxiety—highlighting the absurd pressure of tummy time—and how Liz handles the grind of travel, not for adventure but to maximize earnings. The conversation touches on Liz’s recent Tonight Show debut, the surreal behind-the-scenes moments (like spotting a donut yeti), and how she structured her set to reflect the awe of arriving at that moment in her career. Liz also reveals her love of public transportation, her obsession with capturing everything on camera, and the mental load of keeping every photo and video safe. The episode wraps with Liz sharing the thrill of having a brand-new joke hit right after taping The Tonight Show, calling it the comic’s equivalent of discovering buried treasure. Liz compares the high of finding a working new bit after filming The Tonight Show to discovering the perfect pill—a boost so real, it rivals the euphoria of a new baby. 📍 June Shows are in NYC, Boulder, CO, Sag Harbor, Long Island, Nantucket, MA!Details at https://www.ophiraeisenberg.com Follow Liz Glazer: https://www.instagram.com/lizglazer Watch Liz’s new special: https://www.youtube.com/user/lizglazer See Ophira LIVE: https://www.ophiraeisenberg.com/events/ SUBSCRIBE so you never miss O thing: https://www.ophiraeisenberg.com/sign-up Follow PIAJ:  https://www.instagram.com/parentingisajoke/ https://parentingisajoke.substack.com/   Follow Ophira: https://www.instagram.com/ophirae/ https://www.facebook.com/OphiraEisenberg/ https://www.tiktok.com/@ophiranyc Learn more about your ad choices.
