Staying Alive with Jon Gabrus & Adam Pally

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.
