Staying Alive with Jon Gabrus & Adam Pally

It’s time once again for A Live Staying Alive, and hosts Jon Gabrus and Adam Pally are coming to you from SXSW in Austin TX, the cold plunge capital of the world! They’re joined on stage by hilarious stand-up comedians Jared Freid and Sophie Buddle, who first of all witness one of the more embarrassing moments of Gabrus’ life, and then move on to discussing Pally’s allergy to the mineral cobalt, Jared’s life among the retirees in Florida, and how Sophie stays alive through shoplifting. Plus, a question from the audience about meditation, Gabrus learns that low blood pressure is even possible, and Pally is ONLY smoking flower at the gym, that can’t be why everyone’s moving away from him.

On another Reload episode of Staying Alive, hosts Jon Gabrus and Adam Pally revisit their conversation with good friend, actor, comedian, and personal trainer Ryan Stanger. In this new edit, you'll hear even more tips about fitness and nutrition, plus a ridiculous new ten minutes about supplements and Hawk Tuah's fumbled bag. They'll talk about hyperbaric chambers, barrel saunas vs infrared, what to look for when choosing a trainer, and Stanger really tries to make his Three Pigs metaphor work. Plus, Gabrus wants a Gym Tycoon video game, and Pally owns OK Computer on vinyl. I remember the time.

While the fellas are booked and blessed, please enjoy another brand new edit of one of our favorite episodes, as Jon Gabrus and Adam Pally play you even more of their conversation from last year with the hilarious Ego Nwodim. They'll talk primarily about menus, but also being literally thirsty versus slang thirsty, pitching sketches with a dislocated shoulder, treating your fitness with grace and compassion, and discovering that American cheese isn't real. There's lots of new content about food trucks and traveling to Italy, being an embarrassing dad, and Chicago restaurants. These three EAT.

In Part 2 of their interview with Podfather Will Arnett (Arrested Development, BoJack Horseman, The Lego Batman Movie), hosts Jon Gabrus and Adam Pally talk about Will’s morning routine, their kids dunking on them, imposter syndrome, and the invisible genius of Benicio Del Toro. Plus, should Will be Sean Hayes’ Bradley Cooper? And Will pitches a Brothers Solomon sequel for carbon credit. Was this all just Stranger Things content?
