This week on Girls Rewatch Podcast, we’re hitting pause on our Broad City rewatch to dive back into Girls with one of our favorite girls ever: the incomparable Gillian Jacobs! Known for her unforgettable role as Mimi-Rose Eleanor Howard in Season 4 of HBO's Girls, Gillian has become a fan-favorite, and her scenes have gone mega-viral across our socials. So, we couldn’t wait to sit down with her for an exclusive deep dive into her iconic character.

In this episode, we unpack the evolution of the Mimi-Rose discourse over the last decade, chat about the unforgettable way Gillian landed the role, and fangirl over Lena Dunham’s brilliance. Plus, Gillian opens up about her journey, from playing Mickey on LOVE (which had a huge influence on the creation of Girls Rewatch Podcast!!) to her time on Girls and her time since!

Gillian is as charming, candid, and delightful as ever—and we’re spilling all the behind-the-scenes secrets from her time on the show. You don’t want to miss this one!
