Tight Hour, Tight Ass (w/ Jay Jurden)

On this episode of Staying Alive, hosts Jon Gabrus and Adam Pally sit down with the hilarious, thoughtful, and sincerely yoked Jay Jurden to talk about the state of comedy and the kayfabe of crowdwork, the culture and community of gyms, his lifting routine, and how comedy can be therapeutic, but it can never be therapy (okay? Tattoo it). Also, call Gabrus the pander bear. Follow Jay Jurden @jayjurden on InstaCheck out Jay’s website for tour dates! Full video episodes available HERE.Check out Staying Alive merch at siriusxmstore.com/stayingalive This episode was recorded March 12, 2025 at SiriusXM studios in New York CitySpecial thanks to Jared O’ConnellStaying Alive is produced by Devon Torrey Bryant and Anne HarrisEngineered and edited by Devon Torrey Bryant, who also wrote the musicAssociate producer and video editor is Maddie McCannExecutive produced by Jon Gabrus, Adam Pally, Sean Hayes, Will Arnett, Jason Bateman, Bernie Kaminski, and Rich Korson Keywords for this episode: The Fugitive, Tik Tok, lip-syncing, Chris Rock, plaque psoriasis, P-Town, free weights, David Barton, Hypercolor shirts, Joe Rogan, The Honeymooners, Zach Fox, Tim Robinson, Detroiters, Sam Richardson, aura, vibes, energy, bench, squat, deadlift, posterior chain, gambling, beef tallow, carnivore diet, Borscht Belt, Chitlin’ Circuit, Sydnee Washington, Marie Faustin, Sarah Sherman, Sarah Silverman, comedy shirts, protein shakes, micro trauma, ketosis Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
