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.
