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. 69 - Stop Saying THIS WORD!!!
What is up my friends? This week on Jokes and the Gym, I get a little personal. I opened up about some of life’s challenges (spoiler: feelings were felt), and why communication is basically the kettlebell swing of human connection—awkward at first, but powerful once you commit to it. And I challenge YOU to stop saying a certain word and see how it changes your freakin life.
I talk about the importance of saying what you mean, letting people in (even when you’d rather hide in a hoodie), and showing up for each other with a little more compassionate curiosity. There’s some reflection, some real talk, and yeah, a couple jokes to keep it from getting too earnest.
If you’ve ever struggled to say what you really mean—or if you’ve ever just needed someone to ask “Hey, how are you really?”—this one’s for you.
