Ep. 78 - Running the Light - Book and My Diagnosis in Review

from Jokes and the Gym with Rudy Tyburczy · host Rudy Tyburczy

In episode 78, I review Sam Tallent’s “Running the Light”—one chapter per day—as my own life spirals into a week of medical revelations. A hybrid book review and personal reflection, I weave the story of fictional burnout Billy Ray Schaeffer with my own diagnosis of a low-grade glioma, sharing green room memories, popcorn threesomes, and the deep, weird love of comedy, and the burning ball of light that is Sam Tallent. Featuring backstage tales, heartfelt tributes, and punchlines about brain tumors, this one’s a doozy.“You listen to your body. I listen to you.”Work with me!https://docs.google.com/forms/d/12DgmJSUX_Ptca2ZSg6Ku5Uk8wAdrHPeWkCvwCn_R1pA/editFind me, Rudy Tyburczy, on TikTok @jokesandthegymYoutube @jokesandthegympatreon.com/jokesandthegymwww.rudytyburczy.comig @jokesandthegym and @rudytyburczy and @rudyandthecatsFacebook, Twitter, they also exist.
