Staying Alive with Jon Gabrus & Adam Pally

On the Season 2 premiere of Staying Alive, hosts Jon Gabrus and Adam Pally have leveled up with their first guest, the hilarious writer, director, and former sleep apnea monster Zoe Lister-Jones (The Craft: Legacy, The Miniature Wife, New Girl). They’ll compare notes on medications, talk about taking calls on the colonic table, having healers on both coasts, dietary restrictions, getting too settled with a therapist, and Zoe’s baby bangs backstory. Plus, Pally climbs Mount Giudice, Gabrus is this whole airplane's husband, and Zoe’s show Slip is back on streaming! This is, surprisingly, the most anyone has ever used the word “laser” on Staying Alive.

On a new catch-up episode of Staying Alive, hosts Jon Gabrus and Adam Pally are proving to you that they are still alive, this is the audio equivalent of holding up today’s newspaper. They haven’t recorded together in a little while, so there’s plenty to discuss, beginning of course with Charlie Sheen, but also covering An American Tail, fruit jerky, Christopher Columbus, the Hood-To-Coast Relay Gabrus has entered, the food Pally ate in New Zealand, and of course how their health and wellness journey is going! Hang loose, buds.
