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. 53 - New Year, New Who?? W/ Tess, Chad, and Ben
What sentence did I say to change the trajectory of my entire year? And how can picking something to focus on throughout the year can give shape and meaning to otherwise arbitrary periods of time?
In this year-ender of Jokes and the Gym (53 straight weeks!!), I wax poetic about goals, gaining reflection, setting intention for the year, and other really hilarious stuff. I wonder how self-talk influences identity, ponder the notion of becoming a clean comedian, and overall just try to pump myself up for the new year. What a riot!
I also re-listen to answers from Tess Barker, Chad Sharpe, and Ben Kronberg to the question, "What advice would you give your younger comedy self?" Their answers might surprise you! Or maybe not...
I hope you enjoy this episode! I had fun making it!
Thanks for hanging out this year! Happy new year and stuff!
