"As" in this context means "going back to," or "continuing." The expression "as I was saying" means to go back to something that was previously said; to start up a conversation that was cut short due to an interruption or because someone did not hear it. In this video, Rachel is bringing up the conversation on the phone that was cut short due to Ross interrupting her with the pepper grinder. Ex: As I was saying, we need to go over the numbers again. Ex: As I was telling Barbara, we need to be extremely careful when traveling abroad.
