Ilana Glazer felt the divine spirit of comedy run through her after Sister Act and Ghost star Whoopi Goldberg’s legendary cameo on Broad City.

The comedian and actress appeared alongside costar Abbi Jacobson on a recent episode of Broad City executive producer Amy Poehler’s Good Hang podcast, where the pair reflected on memorable guest stars that stuck out in their minds.

After Glazer praised RuPaul for cracking her up over how he remembered his lines, and Jacobson savored the way Kelly Ripa leaned into playing “bad Kelly Ripa” on an episode of the Comedy Central series, Glazer said that Goldberg’s contributions to the show left her emotionally overwhelmed.

“Whoopi came and did a wordless background role,” Glazer remembered. “It was insane. I remember meeting her and she comes in the trailer, she’s such a badass. So herself. The same! She’s exactly who you’d think she is, and we were just acting totally cool.”

Glazer recalled that the set the crew shot Goldberg’s episode in and “were also in stages that were illegal and abandoned buildings” in Brooklyn.

“She was leaving and I was like, ‘Thanks so much, it meant so much to me.’ I left and immediately turned around and wept in rubble. Bushwick rubble we were filming in, for some reason,” Glazer said.

She added that, “Not only did she do our show, but like, such a real-ass bitch. Like, a comedy girl! Real woman.”

Goldberg appeared in a season 3 episode of Broad City in 2016 titled “Game Over,” which sees Ilana taking an exciting new opportunity at work while Abbi competes in Soulstice Games Day at her gym.

The episode sees Goldberg enter during a fantastical rendition of “Joyful, Joyful” that’s staged in celebration of Ilana finally being fired from her job.
