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.

Ep. 23 - Bert Walpack Didn't Intend To Finish That Marathon
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode of Jokes and the Gym, Rudy sits down with friend and fellow Eugene comedian, dentist Bert Walpack! We get into what it's like being a jet setting dentist, doing comedy and dental conferences all across the country.
We also reflect on his time on the east coast, much of which was spent either pursuing comedy or being a D1 athlete - tune in to find out which Big Ten school he competed for!
He also gives us the lowdown on his current workout routine, why he's focusing on his glutes, and what he hopes to accomplish in comedy when it comes to creating material that excites him.
