YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

On Broad City, her hit Comedy Central show with Ilana Glazer, Jacobson plays an aspiring illustrator whose biggest art show to date was in a sandwich shop. In real life, Jacobson has published two coloring books, Color This Book: New York City and Color This Book: San Francisco, and now adds a third title to her print oeuvre. Carry This Book is a delightful combination of visual whimsy and insightful portraiture, inviting readers to consider the baggage we all carry around. Riffling through the pockets and purses of Everyman as well as investigating the contents of Oprah’s handbag and Trump’s suitcase, Jacobson asks if we are indeed what we carry.

Jacobson is in conversation with Mike Perry, an artist, animator, creative director, brand consultant, poet, and designer who did the animation for the opening credits of Broad City.
