Jokes and the Gym with Rudy Tyburczy
Jokes and the Gym is where dumbbells meet dumb jokes. Hosted by comedian, certified personal trainer, and brain tumor survivor Rudy Tyburczy, this show dives into the messy overlap of comedy, health, and resilience. Each week, Rudy chats with comedians, creatives, and other people in his life about late nights, weird gigs, fitness fails, and finding balance when life throws curveballs. You’ll also hear solo episodes with updates from his ongoing brain surgery journey, reflections on recovery, and plenty of ridiculous stories along the way. Expect laughs, honesty, and maybe even the push you need to lace up your sneakers. Think stand-up comedy with a side of lunges—your brain, your body, and your funny bone will thank you.
