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 61 - Oscar Predictions and Other Things!
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
On this week’s episode, after discussing my joke- and gym-filled weekend, I’m eschewing the gym for the movie theater! Having finally viewed all ten best picture nominees, I dive into my love for movies and the Oscars, breaking down my rankings of all ten, and sharing my predictions for some of my fave categories in writing, acting, directing and more. Will I get any predictions right?? Who cares! But check em out all the same.
We’ll also talk about the emotional pull of great films, the artistry behind contenders like Wicked and The Substance, what old movie standard I’d love to see make a comeback, and the performances that left a mark. From screenplay adaptations to animated features, I’m covering it all—so tune in and see if my Oscar picks hold up!
