Staying Alive with Jon Gabrus & Adam Pally

STAYING ALIVE is hosted by Jon Gabrus & Adam Pally - best friends, comedians, and professional partiers - who have realized that after spending the better part of their lives treating their bodies terribly, they should probably make some changes. The guys will interview friends and experts about the things they do to stay healthy, as well as document their own journeys through real, honest, and "grossly forthcoming" conversations about health and wellness.

    Redhanded (w/ Vic Michaelis)

    On this week’s episode of Staying Alive… look, this show is available as a video podcast and you’re gonna want to watch this episode, because although they can talk TO their guest Vic Michaelis’ hand, hosts Jon Gabrus and Adam Pally may not talk ABOUT Vic Michaelis’ hand. They’ll instead talk to their good friend Vic (Very Important People, Dimension 20, Game Changer) about taekwondo (but not the hand), growing up in megachurches (but not the hand), and eventually, yes, the hand.
